| In
an emergency message to Chakotay, Seska discloses that their newborn
son has been banished by Culluh to a servant colony. Chakotay feels
conflicted about rescuing the baby because he was manipulated into
fatherhood by Seska. When the crew detects a distress signal from
a Kazon shuttle, they transport aboard the critically injured Teirna,
a former aide to Seska, who delivers the news that Culluh has killed
Seska. So, with Teirna restricted to secured quarters, the U.S.S.
Voyager heads on a rescue mission through the Kazon-Nistrim territory
where Kazon raiders viciously attack the ship. Before long, the
fierce battle is over and the U.S.S. Voyager crew has lost outwitted
by their most bitter foe. Surrounded and defenseless, Janeway must
give up the ship to the Kazon.
The crew must accept that they have
been tricked by Culluh who relishes taking the helm of the U.S.S.
Voyager. At his side is an alive and well Seska who taunts Chakotay
with their son. Then, the Kazon abandon the 148 member U.S.S.
Voyager crew on the surface of Hanon Four, a primitive, ferocious
planet. Stripped of their technology, they must use the most basic
skills to survive. While they watch helplessly, their enemy lifts
off the surface with their ship, but unbeknownst to the Kazon
two starfleet crew members are stowed away on board.
