About this episode
When a conehead hitchhiker with shaved ears comes aboard, his knack for languages helps Captain Janeway decipher the encoded message from Starfleet. But when a rendezvous with the USS Shovel makes their situation seem too good to be true, the crew is forced to reckon with everything Arturis represents. Are Frisbee-based games still fun without the cocaine? Does Star Trek need better cargo continuity? Can revenge look like lechery? It’s the episode with soft rock yacht bangers!
