00:08:25,896 --> 00:08:27,811
It must've gotten
into the transporter.

174
00:08:27,855 --> 00:08:30,379
And that's how T'Illups
was born.

175
00:08:30,422 --> 00:08:33,730
Captain, I caution against
socializing with the organism.

176
00:08:33,774 --> 00:08:36,298
Organism? [Scoffs] I'm a totally
unique sentient being.

177
00:08:36,341 --> 00:08:37,647
Plus, I'm cool as [bleep].

178
00:08:37,691 --> 00:08:39,126
We're gonna be
best friends fast.

179
00:08:39,169 --> 00:08:41,259
Yeah, T'Lyn, it doesn't hurt
to be friendly,

180
00:08:41,303 --> 00:08:43,740
since Mr. T'Illups didn't ask
to be created.

181
00:08:43,784 --> 00:08:45,002
Sure didn't, but here I am.

182
00:08:45,046 --> 00:08:47,352
I love being alive.

183
00:08:47,396 --> 00:08:49,659
Well, I'm sure that Janeway
had a solution to this.

184
00:08:49,703 --> 00:08:51,313
[chuckles] I'll be back shortly.

185
00:08:52,532 --> 00:08:55,099
How many physical memories

186
00:08:55,143 --> 00:08:57,449
do you have from before?

187
00:08:59,495 --> 00:09:01,802
[gasping, whimpering]

188
00:09:01,845 --> 00:09:03,412
Don't let them touch
the exhibits!

189
00:09:03,455 --> 00:09:04,848
No!

190
00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:07,459
[computer trills]

191
00:09:07,503 --> 00:09:09,636
COMPUTER:
Initiating programs Chaotica,

192
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,333
Clown and Michael Sullivan.

193
00:09:11,376 --> 00:09:13,857
Safety protocols set to random.

194
00:09:13,901 --> 00:09:16,120
Random? No.
Computer, set them to safety.

195
00:09:16,164 --> 00:09:19,254
- Ooh. [Laughs]
- Surrender now,

196
00:09:19,297 --> 00:09:21,952
or face the wrath of Chaotica.

197
00:09:21,996 --> 00:09:23,824
[panting, whimpering]

198
00:09:23,867 --> 00:09:25,477
These are, like,
Voy'sdeepest cuts.

199
00:09:25,521 --> 00:09:27,436
Not as deep as my cuts. Yah!

200
00:09:27,479 --> 00:09:29,264
- [laughs]
- [grunts]

201
00:09:30,570 --> 00:09:33,050
[grunts] How are these guys
even getting off the holodeck?

202
00:09:33,094 --> 00:09:35,270
I installed holo-emitters
all over the ship.

203
00:09:35,313 --> 00:09:37,141
I thought you were preserving,
not adding.

204
00:09:37,185 --> 00:09:39,709
Oh, subtle updates that don't
impact historical consistency

205
00:09:39,753 --> 00:09:42,712
are an acceptable compromise
for conservation.

206
00:09:42,756 --> 00:09:44,018
Wha... Chaotica isn't subtle,

207
00:09:44,061 --> 00:09:45,846
and the Clown wasn't even
a holodeck pro...

208
00:09:45,889 --> 00:09:47,325
[moans]

209
00:09:47,369 --> 00:09:49,458
I love you, but I can't
be with you.

210
00:09:49,501 --> 00:09:50,546
Ooh, I like this guy, though.

211
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:52,809
[Clown laughing]

212
00:09:52,853 --> 00:09:54,115
- [panting]
- [others gasp]

213
00:09:54,158 --> 00:09:56,247
- Watch out! The Borg display!
- I got it!

214
00:09:56,290 --> 00:09:57,640
[screams]

215
00:09:59,337 --> 00:10:00,425
[whimpers, screams]

216
00:10:02,427 --> 00:10:03,907
That promotion
is starting to seem

217
00:10:03,951 --> 00:10:06,127
a little less likely,
Mr. Boimler.

218
00:10:06,170 --> 00:10:08,303
- [sighs]
- [curator screaming]

219
00:10:13,264 --> 00:10:14,831
Did Janeway figure it out?

220
00:10:14,875 --> 00:10:16,877
No, she just murdered him.

221
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,269
[stammers]
There has to be more to it.

222
00:10:18,313 --> 00:10:20,837
She isolated the genomes
and split 'em up.

223
00:10:20,881 --> 00:10:22,273
He begged her to live.

224
00:10:22,317 --> 00:10:25,015
Holy [bleep].
Janeway didn't mess around.

225
00:10:25,059 --> 00:10:26,887
[sighs]
I don't want to kill the guy.

226
00:10:26,930 --> 00:10:28,410
I mean, he didn't do
anything wrong.

227
00:10:28,453 --> 00:10:30,368
We aren't stranded
in the Delta Quadrant.

228
00:10:30,412 --> 00:10:32,283
We could take him to Earth
and get some help.

229
00:10:32,327 --> 00:10:34,024
Good call. Let's hurry.

230
00:10:34,068 --> 00:10:36,766
Captain, do you think Dr. T'Ana
will be okay?

231
00:10:36,810 --> 00:10:38,986
[sighs] I think so,
but it didn't take us long

232
00:10:39,029 --> 00:10:40,857
to look up Janeway's solution.

233
00:10:40,901 --> 00:10:43,294
Let's just hope Mr. T'Illups
doesn't do the same.

234
00:10:43,338 --> 00:10:45,557
Are you [bleep] kidding me?

235
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:55,176
Dr. Migleemo,
I need your help, uh,

236
00:10:55,219 --> 00:10:56,917
processing my existence.

237
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,396
MIGLEEMO [over comms]:
Oh, what a dream.

238
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,138
Don't do any self-care
until I get there.

239
00:11:01,182 --> 00:11:03,837
CURATOR: Help! [Screams] Help!

240
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,230
I can feel it trying
to regenerate me.

241
00:11:06,274 --> 00:11:08,580
Uh, maybe if I cut power,
we can... [screams]

242
00:11:08,624 --> 00:11:09,973
Stop helping, Ensign Boimler.

243
00:11:10,017 --> 00:11:11,540
Why don't you take a break.

244
00:11:11,583 --> 00:11:12,889
[grunting]

245
00:11:14,543 --> 00:11:17,198
The alcove's activated. Look.

246
00:11:17,241 --> 00:11:19,635
MARINER: What the hell is that?

247
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,159
RUTHERFORD: It's a Borg
nanite. We must have missed one.

248
00:11:23,900 --> 00:11:25,075
BOIMLER:
It's supposed to be microscopic.

249
00:11:25,119 --> 00:11:27,077
It must have assimilated
to the macrovirus.

250
00:11:27,121 --> 00:11:29,079
RANSOM: It's a macro-nanite?

251
00:11:29,123 --> 00:11:31,734
- [Clowns laughing]
- Congratulations.

252
00:11:31,778 --> 00:11:33,736
You've won more Clowns.

253
00:11:33,780 --> 00:11:35,390
I can't resist your touch.

254
00:11:35,433 --> 00:11:36,739
- Let me hold you.
- Computer!

255
00:11:36,783 --> 00:11:37,914
Delete this guy.
Come on, computer.

256
00:11:37,958 --> 00:11:40,917
- [laughing]
- [screams]

257
00:11:40,961 --> 00:11:42,440
[whimpers]

258
00:11:45,182 --> 00:11:48,055
We just want to talk,
Mr. T'Illups.

259
00:11:48,098 --> 00:11:49,839
T'ILLUPS: I don't think
so. You're gonna kill me.

260
00:11:49,883 --> 00:11:52,973
I promise you
I'm not killing anyone,

261
00:11:53,016 --> 00:11:54,322
but I am coming in.

262
00:11:54,365 --> 00:11:55,845
T'ILLUPS: Help!

263
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:57,064
She's trying to kill me!

264
00:11:57,107 --> 00:11:58,630
We're going to figure this out.

265
00:11:58,674 --> 00:12:01,024
What? I can't hear you.

266
00:12:01,068 --> 00:12:03,940
The Cerritosisn't stuck
in the Delta Quadrant,

267
00:12:03,984 --> 00:12:05,855
and Starfleet has
the best doctors in the...

268
00:12:05,899 --> 00:12:07,335
I know how this goes down.

269
00:12:07,378 --> 00:12:10,425
- [both gasp]
- Which is why I need allies.

270
00:12:10,468 --> 00:12:12,035
[Freeman and Shaxs gasp]

271
00:12:12,079 --> 00:12:13,341
FREEMAN: No, wait!

272
00:12:13,384 --> 00:12:14,429
[screams]

273
00:12:14,472 --> 00:12:19,434
Behold, Captain Dr. Frigleeman.

274
00:12:19,477 --> 00:12:22,785
Bring me more scrumptious
senior staff.

275
00:12:22,829 --> 00:12:25,005
That's an order.

276
00:12:25,048 --> 00:12:25,832
No!

277
00:12:26,876 --> 00:12:29,400
Water, room temperature.

278
00:12:29,444 --> 00:12:32,316
So, you're really okay
with killing T'Illups?

279
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,972
I am here to hydrate, not debate
on an anomaly's agency.

280
00:12:36,016 --> 00:12:38,192
Well, I don't know.
I just don't think it's ethical

281
00:12:38,235 --> 00:12:40,281
to end someone's life
to get our friends back.

282
00:12:40,324 --> 00:12:42,370
I hardly know
anyone here at all.

283
00:12:42,413 --> 00:12:44,720
- I am impartial.
- But we're friends.

284
00:12:44,764 --> 00:12:46,287
[chuckles] Right?

285
00:12:46,330 --> 00:12:47,679
- [weapon fires]
- [gasps]

286
00:12:47,723 --> 00:12:50,987
- [people screaming]
- The bartender.

287
00:12:51,031 --> 00:12:52,423
Tuvix him with Lundy.

288
00:12:52,467 --> 00:12:53,990
[gasps]

289
00:12:54,034 --> 00:12:55,644
[people screaming]

290
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,560
[door whooshes open]

291
00:12:58,603 --> 00:13:01,041
TENDI: He's making more hybrids.

292
00:13:01,084 --> 00:13:03,304
That appears to be
an accurate assessment.

293
00:13:05,349 --> 00:13:06,742
[grunts]

294
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:10,224
My career is ruined!

295
00:13:10,267 --> 00:13:12,269
[crying]

296
00:13:18,406 --> 00:13:20,974
[groans] Some of this stuff
got in my mouth.

297
00:13:21,017 --> 00:13:22,976
I'm getting you out of here.
Just hang tight.

298
00:13:23,019 --> 00:13:25,021
Dude, you don't need me.

299
00:13:25,065 --> 00:13:27,284
Did Chaotica's ray gun steal all
your confidence or something?

300
00:13:27,328 --> 00:13:28,633
No, I'm just... [sighs]

301
00:13:28,677 --> 00:13:30,026
- I'm having an off day.
- Ugh!

302
00:13:30,070 --> 00:13:32,072
This was supposed to be fun,
and you ruined it.

303
00:13:32,115 --> 00:13:34,378
- Voyager'sjust a ship, man.
- [sighs] It's not that.

304
00:13:34,422 --> 00:13:35,640
[sighs]

305
00:13:35,684 --> 00:13:37,338
Ransom was gonna
promote me today,

306
00:13:37,381 --> 00:13:39,079
but I don't want it.

307
00:13:39,122 --> 00:13:40,210
What are you talking about?

308
00:13:40,254 --> 00:13:41,342
Did you eat some
of that virus slime?

309
00:13:41,385 --> 00:13:43,387
I'm worried it'll be
like the Titan.

310
00:13:43,431 --> 00:13:45,694
It took us months
to repair our friendship.

311
00:13:45,737 --> 00:13:47,304
I... I can't do that again.

312
00:13:47,348 --> 00:13:49,219
[scoffs] This is a totally
different situation.

313
00:13:49,263 --> 00:13:51,526
It's not just that.
I should've believed you

314
00:13:51,569 --> 00:13:53,528
when the captain sent you
to Starbase 80.

315
00:13:53,571 --> 00:13:56,183
I have bad judgment.
I-I don't deserve a promotion.

316
00:13:56,226 --> 00:13:58,489
[laughs] You adorable idiot.

317
00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:00,665
I'm the one who told Ransom
to promote you.

318
00:14:00,709 --> 00:14:02,145
- You did?
- Yes.

319
00:14:02,189 --> 00:14:04,452
I was just keeping my mouth shut
so it'd be a surprise.

320
00:14:04,495 --> 00:14:05,583
You aren't mad at me?

321
00:14:05,627 --> 00:14:07,411
No. Look, I am really touched,

322
00:14:07,455 --> 00:14:08,891
but this is why
we can't keep secrets.

323
00:14:08,935 --> 00:14:11,067
One of us always ends up
covered in slime.

324
00:14:11,111 --> 00:14:13,156
Yeah, and it's not coming up.

325
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,942
Would you just go save the ship
already? You don't need me.

326
00:14:15,985 --> 00:14:18,205
Thanks, Mariner.
I'm glad we're friends.

327
00:14:19,510 --> 00:14:21,338
Ew! Did you just
pat me on the head?

328
00:14:21,382 --> 00:14:23,079
Yeah, it felt weird to me, too.
I'm sorry.

329
00:14:27,954 --> 00:14:31,392
You are Chondus,
and you're with friends.

330
00:14:31,435 --> 00:14:33,046
This is Shabarnes
and Swhale Swhalens.

331
00:14:33,089 --> 00:14:36,005
He's a combination of Steve
Stevens and Matt the whale.

332
00:14:36,049 --> 00:14:38,312
I want a fish. [Squeaks]

333
00:14:38,355 --> 00:14:41,837
He's not my best work,
but it matters not.

334
00:14:41,881 --> 00:14:47,147
Soon, the entire [bleep] crew
will be a Tuvix army!

335
00:14:47,190 --> 00:14:47,930
[gasps]

336
00:14:51,412 --> 00:14:54,284
Prepare to energize.

337
00:14:55,677 --> 00:14:57,113
We have to do something.

338
00:14:57,157 --> 00:14:59,420
I am already taking control
of the transporters.

339
00:14:59,463 --> 00:15:03,076
- You can do that?
- Starfleet systems are easily circumvented.

340
00:15:03,119 --> 00:15:04,729
Hey, what are you doing?

341
00:15:06,688 --> 00:15:08,081
[yowls]

342
00:15:14,435 --> 00:15:16,263
[gasps]

343
00:15:16,306 --> 00:15:20,006
You combined all of them

The captain has ordered me
to sit with Commander Vekras

and transcribe his tedious
battle tales.

It is a waste of time.

Ma'ah lucked his way

He forgets who

Should we fire on them?
