VOY - Muse

This, as I have previously stated, is one of my favorite episodes of Voyager’s 6th season. I I have always thought that it had a very interesting story line, however, the main strength of the episode is in Khelles’ plays. The unique point of view they provide on Voyager, its crew and other aspects of the Delta quadrant is refreshing, and somewhat comical to watch, as the actors and poet try to make sense out of the characters. Watching them makes you realize how unusual some of the characters and aliens are, such as Tuvok, even though we have come to think of them as normal.
B’ellana is actually interesting in Muse, as the writers finally decided to do something with her character, besides having her lose her temper. In this episode, she comes across as a competent engineer, and a person who actually can manage people (with the help of a conveniently timed thunderstorm). It is the unique setting that sets this episode apart from the others, allowing for a new type of storyline never before tried in any previous Star Trek epsode, and making this episode truly enjoyable to watch.
