Remember ( episode ) B ' Elanna Torres receives vivid dreams from an unknown passenger aboard " Voyager " . Summary . Teaser . The engineering staff , specifically Lieutenant B ' Elanna Torres and Ensign Harry Kim , are working with a group of the visiting guests , Jessen and Jora Mirell , to install their energy conservation technology and decide to call an end to the evening ' s work . Kim and Jessen have become friendly and go off to dinner while Torres retires to bed for the night . While in bed , Torres has a vivid dream about having a passionate love affair with a young Enaran male , Dathan Alaris , who , interestingly , calls her Korenna . She oversleeps the next morning and Chakotay comes to wake her . Act One . Torres confides to Chakotay about the dreams and her excitement about the love affair they portray . She is immediately apologetic for being late to her shift , but Chakotay is more concerned about her . He ' s amused by the whole thing , and Torres swears him to silence . Meanwhile , Neelix has shut off the mess hall to the crew in preparations for an Enaran - themed party to recognize their guests . Tom Paris and Kim enter and are amazed at the lengths he went through , and the Enarans certainly enjoy it . Kim goes to join Jessen while Jor Brel , the Enaran leader , is playing a traditional Enaran musical instrument . Captain Kathryn Janeway , next to him , loves the music and asks about the instrument . Brel offers to help her play it , and she agrees , but she doesn ' t realize this meant a telepath ic link with her to share his knowledge . She is startled because she didn ' t expect such an intense contact but at the same time she appreciates the experience and understands it was innocent . Jor Brel apologizes and the incident is settled . Meanwhile , Torres did not join the party , turning in early to have another dream . This one is not as pleasant , as her character is scolded by her father , Jareth , for continuing to see the man from earlier . It ' s revealed he is forbidden from contact with her . She pleads with him , but he is adamant . Her father leaves , and the man , hidden up until now , comes from a back room . They embrace , but suddenly his skin becomes badly burned and he screams in pain . Act Two . Torres reports to Chakotay with an update on the energy conservation efforts , then turns to the dreams . She says it feels like they are advancing a story , and it ' s very real . She thinks there ' s more going on . Chakotay suggests she talk to one of the Enarans while he informs Janeway . Torres going to engineering , but then one of these dreams catches her in daytime , this time a ceremony in which Torres ' character is given an award by her father . Her father is talking about the beginnings of colonization efforts for his people . To her surprise , her lover is there , risking being seen with her to participate in her big day . They want to embrace , but can ' t risk it . They promise to see each other the next day . Meanwhile , Kes finds Torres unconscious in engineering , and calls for a medical emergency . Act Three . Torres jumps awake in sickbay , to a relieved Janeway and Kes . The Doctor finds strong signs of telepathic activity and determines that the memories Torres is experiencing were implanted in her subconscious , only to be realized when her conscious mind is inactive . He wants to put a cortical inhibitor on her to suppress theta wave activity . Torres hesitates , as she wants to see the story through , but The Doctor reiterates she would risk brain damage , so she relents . Janeway decides to ask Brel about the incident . Brel seems honestly skeptical that anyone is doing this intentionally . His guess is that she is sensitive to the stray telepathic thoughts of all Enarans on the ship , and Torres ' mind is forging them into a narrative . After he leaves , Tuvok admits it is a plausible explanation , and Torres also thinks it ' s reasonable . Janeway admits there ' s no other sign of a hidden agenda with the Enarans , however , she wants to keep investigating , and Tuvok isn ' t satisfied either until they ' ve ruled out foul play . In the meantime , she orders Torres to take time off , to get away from it . Torres can ' t just sit and wait , so she takes off the inhibitor and allows another dream to occur . This time , her ( Korenna ) , has a talk with her father about the Regressive s , a subgroup which once resisted Enaran technology . She ' s been led to believe that , because of their chosen way of life , they ' re dangerous to have living on the planet , and have voluntarily chosen to be resettled to a colony world . She ' s skeptical now , and talks with her dad to reassure her . Later , she flashes to her participation in preparing the people for the ship . Some are silent , but one person wants more information on what will happen to her . Korenna can ' t give it to her , and she ' s led away by someone else . Then , Korenna ' s father calls Alaris ' name , much to Korenna ' s surprise . He doesn ' t show , which leads her father to think Korenna warned him , but she didn ' t know about him . Then , another person , resisting the processing , knocks Korenna down . Torres wakes up with an injury on her face . She is now determined to talk to Mirell herself . Mirell doesn ' t answer her call , so she breaks in , finding her on the floor . Mirell is insistent on giving her the rest of the memories because she won ' t deny the truth , something the rest of her people have been hiding for a long time . Mirell says the others in her group now know she ' s been sharing these memories . Torres realizes Jora " is " Korenna . She grabs Torres ' neck and Torres finds herself in another dream , now playing the same kind of musical instrument from before . Act Four . Korenna , in her room again , stops playing and thinks . Alaris enters her room , and explains he is scheduled to leave the next day . He wants Korenna to come with him , but she can ' t leave her family and career . Alaris tells her the incredible rumor : that the Regressives are not colonized , but simply killed en route to the planet . Korenna has a hard time believing this , as there ' s plausible explanations for not being able to get in contact with those who already left , but Alaris is adamant . They ' re interrupted by Korenna ' s father , who talks to his daughter and eventually convinces her that Alaris and the Regressives are the ones who are lying . Korenna is finally convinced and signals that Alaris is in the next room . Her memory flashes to later when Alaris and another Regressive are put to death ( burned like she saw earlier ) after the words of Korenna ' s father talking about protecting their ideals . Korenna is deeply distraught , but then , when the crowd cheers at their deaths , Korenna herself joins in . After this , Korenna is shown as a teacher working with students and telling the children that the Regressives killed each other due to their stubbornness , and none of them remain . Torres wakes up to find that Jora is dead . Act Five . Strongly affected by the horrible vision s , Torres realizes that the Enarans have concealed a part of their history from their descendants and that one of them aboard " Voyager " doesn ' t want her buried memories to die . She charges into the goodbye party organized for the Enarans and tells everybody about what she has discovered . The older Enarans refuse to admit that what she experienced was a true story , while the younger ones refuse to believe her . Torres also accuses the chief of the Enarans of having killed Jora Mirell . Janeway is shocked and tells B ' Elanna she will speak to The Doctor to confirm the cause of death of Jora Mirell and then meet B ' Elanna in her ready room an hour later . Janeway decides to allow the Enarans disembark and takes no actions to force them to reckon their history . She tells Torres she believes her , but if they want to conceal a part of their history from themselves it is their right to do so . Starfleet has no business in the matter . Torres desperately suggests they could look into it if a murder occurred on their ship , but Janeway says she already had The Doctor discretely examine Jora Morell for signs of foul play and that he found none . However , Janeway has trade negotiations as well as shore leave cancelled , and orders that " Voyager " leave orbit as soon as all the Enarans have disembarked . Janeway mentions that the Enaran engineers are still packing up their equipment , and suggests that if Torres has anything more to say , she should talk to them . Torres thanks Janeway and leaves . In engineering , Torres finds Jessen , who still strongly refuses to believe her . Torres asks her to search her history when she returns to Enara Prime and wishes to be able to transmit her the memories she has received from the old woman . Convinced by Torres ' earnestness that she might be telling the truth , Jessen offers to establish the telepathic link and in turns she begins experiencing the same story herself . Memorable quotes . " " Maybe he ' s right . The Enarans haven ' t shown any hint of subterfuge , any hidden agenda . They ' ve been nothing but straightforward and honest . You ' re in no immediate danger . They ' ll be gone in another day . The situation will resolve itself . " " " " And yet , you fully intend to continue investigating . " " " " I wonder how long it ' s been since I did anything that surprised you . " " " " Why don ' t you go on without me . " " ( Harry Kim and Jessen leave ) " " No , really . I insist . " " " " I don ' t think satisfying your curiosity is worth risking brain damage , lieutenant . " " " " I wish . . . I had your abilities . I could just show you . " " " " You would do that ? Share your experiences openly ? " " " " Of course . " " " " So that ' s it ? We just go on our merry way and nobody ever has to take any kind of responsibility ? " " Links and references .
