VOY - Rise

This is, literally, an elevator episode, and a very good one at that. It is also one of the few episodes in which Neelix does not drive the viewer up the wall. The story of the episode is very interesting, as there are many things going on. While Voyager tries in vain to deflect asteroids from hitting the planet, Neelix and Tuvok are down on a devastated region of the planet. They have to get back up to the ship, flush out a traitor in the group they are traveling with and do these things without getting into a fight themselves. Furthermore, all of the many aspects of this episode’s plot line are well done, making Rise One of the better episodes of Voyager’s third season
