* EndingAversion: It's Tuvok who finally comes up with the solution at the climax, which is to do absolutely nothing and let the spacial distortion pass through the ship. In essence, the problem just goes away.

-->'''Mark:''' I’m cool with open-ended plots; I like a good mystery; I do not need to be spoon-fed. But the spoon wasn’t even near my face here. It’s like the show constructed an elaborate ice cream sundae and then chucked it into a volcano right as they finished. There is no satisfaction, catharsis, or resolution offered to the audience, and no one in the show seems at all bothered by this.

* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: In addition to the generally unsatisfying feeling of the ending, the "NegativeSpaceWedgie turns out to actually be a life-form" twist had been done not only in the previous season's "The Cloud", but several episodes of ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration''.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The interior of ''Voyager'' being transformed into AlienGeometries had the potential to form the basis of an interesting episode, but due to the limits of the show's budget and the effects technology of the time, the end result is a BottleEpisode where the characters spend most of the episode wandering around the ship and just pointing out that they're not where they're supposed to be.
