* BookEnds: The two-parter started with Voyager coming across an aggressive but underpowered Krenim ship trying to bully Voyager while [[BoisterousWeakling lacking any sort of weaponry to back it up]]. After Annorax figured out how to restore most of the Krenim Imperium the timeline shift showed Voyager being pounded on by a much nastier ship, with Janeway commenting that they have been dealing with these attacks for weeks now. After the timeship is destroyed the timeline resets to Day One where Voyager comes across an authoritative Krenim ship but with moderate policies, simply warning them of local threats before allowing them to pass.
