[VOY] Season 4, Episode 20: Vis a Vis
Rating: 2
The body hopping idea is a pretty good one, and the episode does a fine enough job with it, but it does feel like a bit of a missed opportunity. It’s a little annoying that they once again dangle some super fast space travel in front of Voyager. Is everybody flying around way faster than the Federation??

Notes:
For fun, Paris likes to hang out in a garage and repair a car
An alien shows up. He’s got a super fast ship
He becomes best buds with Paris
Every now and then he turns into a different person, but he still seems pretty cool. I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about.
Paris acts like a big baby with B’Elanna.
Paris’ new friendship takes a weird turn.
This new phase of the friendship involves the alien impersonating Paris.
Pretend-Paris isn’t that good at being Paris Paris.
Paris Paris is confused ’cause he isn’t himself anymore.
Then another potential friend shows up!
Pretend Paris loses it.
He gets in trouble.
Choking! Tuvok comes to save the day, and takes Pretend Paris away.
Well, we know the alien probably didn’t take over Janeway’s body, because she bothers to make a captain’s log after the break.
Real Paris shows up and wants his body back!
Definitely Real Janeway shoots Seven and steals a shuttle!
Wait, Paris outfitted a shuttle with the super-fast-folding-space warp drive, just like that? I wonder if that would ever come in handy for Voyager?
then every important character gets their body back. Sorry lady who lost her body before the episode, you don’t matter.
