| 1 | Bogg and Jeffrey find themselves in an empty room in Voyager headquarters, which they soon find out is because Bogg has to stand trial for breaking the Voyager code and endangering a young civilian. Can the two of them and attorney Voyager Susan defeat the prosecutor, Voyager Drake, in time to keep the pair from being separated? |
| 2 | !!This episode contains examples of the following tropes: |
| 3 | * AndTheAdventureContinues: Bogg is cleared and it's revealed that Jeff was always destined to be a Voyager himself, so the two can continue roaming the time stream together. |
| 4 | * BrilliantButLazy: Susan tells Bogg that he could have done much better if he'd actually applied himself. |
| 5 | * ChekhovsGunman: A long-term example possibly crossing over with BrickJoke; Voyager Susan, the attorney who represents Bogg during the proceedings, turns out to be the mysterious blonde classmate who distracted him during his time at the academy (something which was mentioned in the first episode). |
| 6 | * ClipShow: The episode is an unusually good instance of this. The clips of old episodes are mostly explained in-universe as recordings from the omni of past adventures. |
| 7 | * CompromisingMemoirs: A variation; Drake's otherwise successful plots are undone when defense attorney Voyager Susan finds his copy of ''The Prince'', where he wrote down notes every time he got away with something underhanded. Drake alleges that he will be a hero to future Voyagers and this may be part of the reason he kept the "diary". |
| 8 | * HistoricalDomainCharacter: Sam Houston appears briefly toward the end of the episode. |
| 9 | * NearVillainVictory: Drake has convicted and banished thirty Voyagers and it looks like Bogg is going to be the thirty-first, until Susan turns up with Drake's copy of ''Literature/ThePrince'', in which he wrote all the unethical things he did. Drake would have won if he'd been able to resist leaving a record for posterity. |
| 10 | * PlatonicDeclarationOfLove: Drake accuses Bogg of endangering Jeffrey during their time-travel experiences. Bogg responds that he loves Jeffrey and wouldn't let anything hurt him. As Bogg said in an earlier episode that he would like to be able to say Jeffrey was his son, it's pretty clear it isn't sexual. |
| 11 | * SeriesFauxnale: This could have been the last episode and another ending was written in which Bogg saves Mr. and Mrs. Jones, giving Jeff his parents back, but the show continued, resulting in the current ending. |
| 12 | * StealthHiBye: At the end of the episode, Professor Garth gives Bogg back his omni (which was taken from him during the trial). Bogg and Jeff omni out...and then Garth turns to give Bogg his new Guidebook and finds he's talking to thin air. |
