History Recap / StarTrekVoyagerS5E21SomeoneToWatchOverMe

* AllForNothing: Neelix gets in a fluster trying to make sure everything is beyond reproach for their very proper guests, then panics when Tomin decides to [[DirtyOldMonk indulge in wine, women and song]]. The crew even resorts to [[MadScience injecting Tomin with Borg nanoprobes just to make him sober up]], only for his religious superior to [[SeenItAll wink at the idea of a young man sowing wild oats,]] and mildly warn him not to make a habit of it.

* AssInAmbassador: The guest of honor gets blissed out on synthehol (apparently, his species lacks the enzymes that break down booze) and turns into a Tex Avery wolf when Seven walks in. "Seven of Mine!" he slurs. "[[StrawFan Assimilate me!]]"

'''Seven:''' ''(deer in headlights expression)'' You wish to [[CheckPlease accelerate our social encounter.]]

--> "Seven of ''Mine''...Assimilate me..."

* CovertPervert: Seven of Nine studying Tom Paris and B'Elanna Torres' relationship. Needless to say, B'Elanna wasn't very pleased with this.
-->'''B'Elanna:''' How the ''hell'' do you know when we're having intimate relations?
-->'''Seven:''' [[RightThroughTheWall There is no one on Deck 9, Section 12]] [[TheImmodestOrgasm who]] ''[[TheImmodestOrgasm doesn't]]'' [[TheImmodestOrgasm know when you're having intimate relations]].

* GeekyTurnOn: Seven's succinct answers to the Doctor when he's busy pounding out a dating profile for her. What does she do in her spare time? "Regenerate." What about her likes and dislikes? "I dislike irrelevant conversation." What does she seek in life? "Perfection." When seeking out a mate Seven chooses several men that appeal to her. And the reasons? A flawless work record and efficiency!

-->'''Seven:''' I've narrowed the list to two crewmen, based on work performance and compatible interests.
-->'''Harry Kim:''' I didn't know you had any interests.
-->'''Seven:''' Neither did I, but apparently they include astronomy, quantum mechanics and music.
-->'''Harry Kim:''' I play the clarinet, you know.
-->'''Seven:''' You are not one of the candidates, Ensign.

* LiteralMetaphor: When Seven offers to get Tom Paris and The Doctor a drink at the reception, The Doctor says, "You know I don't drink. I don't have the stomach for it."

** The Doctor gets one of his own: "You know I don't drink. I don't have the ''stomach'' for it.

* RejectionAffection: Harry Kim tries...again...to get together with Seven when she mentions that her criteria for romantic partners include musical talent.
--> '''Harry:''' I play the clarinet, you know.\\

* [[SexIsEvilAndIAmHorny Sex Is Irrelevant And I Am Horny]]: Seven denies it, but Doc suggests that her recent behavior is due to her...''desires''...starting to awaken.

-->'''Doctor:''' Try shaking your head a bit.
-->''(Seven does so and looks beautiful)''
-->'''Seven:''' Is this more appropriate?
-->'''Doctor:''' (faintly) [[DistractedByTheSexy Yes...]]

* StandardFemaleGrabArea: Seven of Nine shows the correct response when a drunken ambassador grabs you like this.
-->"Remove your hand or [[IWillTearYourArmsOff I shall remove your arm]]."

-->'''The Doctor:''' [[UnusualEuphemism Here we see how Fortress Ovum is besieged by countless little warriors...]]
-->'''Seven:''' [[SubvertedTrope Doctor, I am familiar with the physiological process of sexual reproduction.]]

* ButLiquorIsQuicker: A GenderFlipped (and unintentional) example when Tomin gets drunk and falls for Seven:

-->'''B'Elanna:''' How the hell do you know when we're having intimate relations?
-->'''Seven:''' [[RightThroughTheWall There is no one on Deck 9, Section 12]] [[TheImmodestOrgasm who doesn't know when you're having intimate relations]].

* CovertPervert: Seven of Nine studying Tom Paris and B'elanna Torres' relationship. Needless to say, B'elanna wasn't very pleased with this.
-->'''B'elanna:''' How the hell do you know when we're having intimate relations?

** More plot-specific, Tom and the Doctor's bet about Seven is nearly a WholePlotReference to ''Theatre/{{Pygmalion}}'', the recently released ''Film/ShesAllThat'' also being based on that play.

* AllForNothing: Neelix gets in a fluster making sure nothing is above reproach, only to find the young ambassador wants to [[DirtyOldMonk indulge in wine, women and song]]. Then the crew are willing to [[MadScience inject the ambassador with Borg nanoprobes just to make him sober up]], only to find his religious superior [[IKnowYouKnowIKnow knows full well what he's been up to]] and [[SeenItAll doesn't care]], so long as it doesn't become a habit.

* IncrediblyLamePun:
** Tom tells a few at the reception ("How do you bend a hologram's ear? Use a prism."), but Tomin is so plastered that he thinks they're the funniest jokes ever.
** The Doctor gets one of his own: "You know I don't drink. I don't have the ''stomach'' for it.
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Seven is about to casually remove her catsuit...dermaplastic garment, [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness only for the Doctor to get flustered]] and leave the room.

** More plot-specific, Tom and the Doctor's bet about Seven is nearly a WholePlotReference to ''Theatre/{{Pygmalion}}''.

** More plot-specific, Tom and the Doctor's bet about Seven is nearly a WholePlotReference to ''Literature/{{Pygmalion}}''.

* TitleDrop / SongsOfSolace: The song played at the end of the episode.

* KissMeIAmVirtual: The Doctor screws up his courage to make a LoveConfession, only to reveal it's a holodeck program. When the real Seven informs him [[StealthInsult she's decided there are no potential mates on Voyager]], he CannotSpitItOut.

* ShoutOut: The picture the Doctor shows Seven is from ''Film/LookWhosTalking''.
