"Hi Everybody!"
Jesus I'd forgotten all about Cogenitor;

Trip, why are you upset at these nice new people we've met having a sex slave? It's not our place to judge their morals, even when we've confirmed "It" is just as capable and intelligent as the rest of their people. Why are you empowering someone treated as property to think and act for themselves? Just because WE eliminated bigotry and slavery on our planet doesn't give us the right to be rude to these people with advanced technology who're willing to share it! Now just overlook this inconvenient part of their culture like the rest of us and reap the benefits!

Oh look Trip; It killed itself because their systemic culture denied their ability to express their rights as anything other than a sex slave and they couldn't deal with being aware of their total oppression. It's your fault for empowering them with the means to try to aspire to be more than the ship's sex slave. Now let that be a lesson to you! :manning:.


Also holy poo poo, it had Andreas Katsulas! :stwoon:.

At least he was kept well away from the rest of the episode's plot.

And someone chose that ending for the episode. They could just as easily have gone: "Slavery, huh? Hadn't thought of it like that. I guess we still have a lot to learn. Anyway, bon voyage Enterprise!"

Their captain even read all of Shakespeare and thought it was cool. Was there really no MLK or Frederick Douglass in Enterprise's computer?

They lose like 15 over the run of the show, and they supposedly started with 8. Just like the limited number of photon torpedoes they just kind of stopped caring at some point, if they did at all.

You know what I'll say it is easier to manufacture more shuttle craft than photon torpedoes using the replicators, with components and resources they get along the way. The hardest part would be their engines fuel, but they have to collect more engine fuel all the time anyway.

Tony Stark built the arc reactor in a week FROM SCRAP AND HE WAS IN A CAVE!

shuttlecraft have warp drives, which they can not manufacture with replicators. otherwise yeah, there's no reason why they couldn't pump out sublight shuttles left and right.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
I like to imagine an unaired episode:

Voyager discovers an easily exploitable temporal anomaly that lets them duplicate finite resources but destroys organic material, so they use it to restock a bunch of crap. Janeway struggles with the ethics of it, realizing that the anomaly can seriously mess with the capitalistic economic theory of the region, and is forced to collapse the anomaly after a show of force from a local warlords.

Meanwhile, The Doctor attempts to teach Seven of Nine about the history of opera, but the holodeck suffers a catastrophic failure due to the anomaly. They must escape while wearing extremely fancy clothes, and must perform a duet to distract the now lethal Soprano, played by 90s star Jennifer Aniston.

Neelix uses it one time to go do a thing, I can't remember what.

Also, replicators aren't the only way to make things. They can just make warp coils.

I seem to recall that the whole point of the Delta Flyer was to make a bigger, roomier warp capable shuttle. But Neelix's ship was bigger than a regular shuttle but small enough to fit in the shuttlebay. And they were supposed to have limited resources, so why spend them on making a new craft when you had something perfectly capable of doing that already, even if it smelled weird or whatever.

Neelix's shuttle was sticky. Like, all over. When it launched there was an audible tape-ripping sound because even the landing gear was sticky.

And don't even think about what it looks like under UV light...
