[VOY] Season 2, Episode 2 (Netflix S2 E2): Initiations
Rating: 2
The episode features Chakotay hanging out with a Kazon kid. If this sounds like something that interests you, then check it out. While there still isn’t anything too interesting established for the Kazon, it’s nice to see them at least attempt to add depth to their culture.

Notes:
Janeway lets Chakotay borrow a shuttlepod to do some ritual. Why can’t this ritual be done in his quarters, or the holodeck, or the hallway? I’m pretty sure Chakotay just made up the rules for this shuttlepod ritual.
Luckily a dumb Kazon kid shows up to stop Chakotay’s ritual
Chakotay locks on to his engine core. Why not disable his weapons or something. I’ve seen it done
Neelix is feeling left out and underutilized. I bet this’ll be a really great plot line.
Kazon-Nog explains how the Ogla earn a cool name by killing something
The Kazon leader tells Chakotay to kill the kid, cause it will teach the other kids a lesson…
…That didn’t seem very well thought out on the part of the Kazon leader
Kazon-Nog wants to escape with Chakotay
Their escape doesn’t go that well
They transport to a moon and have to survive until Voyager comes for them.
That means cave!
File under: Cave!
Chakotay says he cherishes the federation uniform. I guess not enough to stay in the federation. Shouldn’t this be a time where Chakotay talks about the Maquis or something?
Meanwhile back on Voyager, the Kazon show up…
…uh …Neelix takes care of it though
Kazon-Nog says the Kazon shared a homeworld with the Trabe, who had all the technology and uniforms. The Kazon overthrew them recently
Chakotay comes up with a plan for Kazon-Nog to kill him so he can earn his name, and then The Doctor can just bring him back from the dead. Kazon-Nog decides to kill the Ogla leader instead. The kid had a better plan than you, Chakotay
SEE, He could’ve just done his ritual in his quarters
