[VOY] Season 2, Episode 11 (Netflix: S2 E11): Maneuvers
Rating: 4
The plot of Seska and Voyager trying to outwit each other works for the most part, but the real strength of the episode is Seska. She is one of my favorite villains in Voyager. This, along with an upcoming episode, may also be the best episodes dealing with the Kazon.

Notes:
B’Elanna and Chakotay were playing hover-ball and B’Elanna was winning. Chakotay tries to make it clear that he was “lulling [her] into a false sense of security”, and that he would’ve won. For a lot of this episode they’re telling us that Chakotay has a lot of pride. I never really got that impression before
They’re picking up a Federation signal?
A Kazon ship was hiding in a cloud! They know the rotation of shield frequencies for Voyager! The whole attack is really cool
It’s Seska! and Cullah. They steal transporter technology
Neelix asks a bunch of questions he should already know the answer to in a lame scene of exposition
Cullah meets with another sect of the Kazon to try to form an alliance to take down Voyager
The meeting doesn’t go so well for the other sect. I guess they’ve figured out the transporter
Chakotay makes things a lot more difficult for Voyager by going after Seska alone. Hope it works out
Chakotay manages to destroy the Kazon’s transporter capabilities. He sends a message to Voyager saying not to come after him. Did he really think that would happen?
The Kazon have gained the support of 6 other Kazon ships, but B’Elanna can transport Chakotay off while Voyager is at warp by synchronizing the transporter’s annular confinement beam to the warp core frequency duh idiots
Seska counters B’Elanna’s plan and makes it so they can’t get a lock on Chakotay
So they beam over some Kazon guys and negotiate for Chakotay
Janeway chews out Chakotay for his reckless decision. I think she went easy on him.
Seska sends a message to Chakotay saying she stole some of his DNA and impregnated herself with it. What a psycho
