Fat Shat Sings posted:I figured that was just the computer adapting to his input and responding in kind. Like it starts out being a blank slate that answers his questions in the most efficient way possible, but after he spends some time flirting with it the computer thinks he wants to go to bone town. The same computer that doesn't bother notifying anyone when people just disappear from the ship, or when vortexes to another dimension open up in people's quarters? Which, by the way, seems to happen all the goddamn time? I don't think this computer adapts to anything. For God's sake, the captain silk has to tell the computer if he wants a cup of tea hot or cold.

Barclay was a for-real genius, even before he did that compu-meld thing in the holodeck. And then wasn't he a pretty normal guy during one the movies? Like he had a little cameo role where he was all "I'm all better now, ladies. Come get deez nuts." And then he transported his runabout into Troi's wormhole.

Barclay is a hypochondriac socially retarded sad sack on a ship full of perfect human beings who constantly get mad at him for loving up. Of course he's a basket case who eventually finds solace in Voyager's adventures.

criscodisco posted:Yeah, it's not like Geordi wrote the line "when you're touching the engines, you're touching me" line. That was all the pervy computer. I think the real story here is that the computer loves Geordi and was living that love vicariously through a human-form hologram.

The General posted:Geordi asked for a personality profile, as close as the computer could do. Maybe professionally she's a flirt at the conferences. Who knows? But Geordi only takes some of the blame here. The computer did it. I'm pretty convinced that since it's Roddenberry's free love future, the holodeck is programmed with the assumption that it will be used for sex so all the programming is a little too responsive and forward.

Police Automaton posted:It's funny that voyager is so bland that people can't help but talk about the other star trek shows in a voyager thread. Fine. An example of pretty much everyone's complaint about the resets in voyager is in one episode when someone needs to escape the ship for some reason, so they just smash a shuttle through the shuttle bay doors causing all kinds of damage to the ship. And it's never once mentioned by anyone. Not even like "We had work crews put in some extra time!" just someone blows a huge hole in the ship and nobody even seems to register that it was a thing that happened. That episode where Kes gets super powers and comes back all pissed off? She is destroying entire hallways in decks and blowing up the structure of the ship and crumpling beams. They just sort of knock her out and it's like none of that ever happened. The Hirogen wanted to be Nazi Aliens so they ended up converting a huge amount of the internal space in voyager into gigantic holodecks they could be even bigger Nazi in. Somehow they were just ripping out entire decks of the ship. Which is fixed somehow between episodes and never at all mentioned. Also obligatory torpedo inventory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIGxMENwq1k And the fact they had 2 shuttles but lost 18 of them or something.

According to page 11 of the Voyager Technical Manual that is apparently online, it's the "upper phaser strip", or possibly the "upper sensor pallets".

If I'm thinking of the same thing you are, it's the phaser. It was 7 of 9 that blew out the shuttlebay doors, and when Kes came back she not only Carrie'd the interior of the ship, but she flew her shuttle right through the hull of Voyager. Thankfully they had a new hull in storage, though. It's times like this that I wish the Aatrek thing had never happened. I know he's a child molester and all, but he did have an excellent repository of Voyager gifs on his site that were great for threads like this.

Fat Shat Sings posted:He needed to work on the Enterprise's engines in some lethal trap so he created the designer of the Enterprise, then kept flirting with her so much over the course of the episode that everyone started getting creeped out. Since his mechanistic hologram was responding to his creepy advances and turning flirtatious. Picard even tried to shut him down when the ship was critical on power, couldn't run any systems, but Geordi was sperging out because he wanted his holo-wife program running. Hillary Clintons Thong posted:Even worse than I remembered, apparently. And it gets still worse because she is initially horrified, correctly, but by the end of that story she is apologizing to Geordi.

Melchior posted:This was easily the worst trek episode I had ever watched, which made Move Along Home shakespearian by comparison. That being said, after I finished up DS9, VOY became my go-to 'watch in bed before we go to sleep' show. I was prepared for it to be awful but after 6 seasons bland really IS a much better description. The most surprising thing is that Neelix is a lot less jarjar like than I thought he'd be, although I really wish him and Quark would stop shopping at the upholstery fabric store. That episode really creeped me out as a kid
