Kohlar is convinced. The others are skeptical, especially T'greth, but Kohlar orders the Day of Separation. Back on Voyager, they find that the Klingon ship is suddenly blowing up. They hastily beam everyone over, all two hundred and four of them. Soon, Janeway's crackerjack crew finds out that the Klingons breached their own core on purpose in order to get on Voyager.
Torres is more than a little disbelieving of the whole thing, as well as somewhat impatient.
Neither Torres nor Janeway is amused. First of all, they need to keep 204 Klingons fed and sheltered, which means everyone is going to have to double up while they figure out what to do. Neelix, of course, throws himself into the study of Klingon culture and cuisine, and even handles himself very well when a fight breaks out in the mess hall. Kim helps out with controlling the fight, unhappily drawing the eye of a fierce Klingon woman. Neelix also makes a home for himself on Tuvok's sofa, having given up his quarters to a Klingon family.
