Torres, however, seems unenthusiastic, and makes no comment, even when prompted by Paris. In the holodeck, Tuvok and Paris are working on the hull design and begin to argue about the merits of dynametric tailfins. Tuvok ultimately removes the feature, justifying the action with the statement that the shuttle is not a " hot rod ". Paris protests, but Seven turns the conversation to structural integrity , noting that Torres' plan to use tritanium was flawed, and that a tetraburnium alloy would better withstand the atmospheric pressures.
To everyone's surprise, Torres doesn't protest, but quietly agrees, and leaves to go work on the thruster specs. Torres later delivers the said specs to Paris in his quarters , and makes ready to leave when Paris suggests that she stop and have dinner with him.
She declines, claiming to be tired, but Paris confronts her about her reclusive attitude. She defends herself by claiming that she is still on schedule with her work, but he presses the point, saying he is concerned as her friend, not as her superior. Torres leaves, but on the way to her quarter passes by the holodeck and hesitates.
She decides to run program Torres , again deactivating the safeties in spite of the computer's warning. The program turns out to be a cave, in which she is attacked by a number of Cardassians in hand-to-hand combat. Voyager enters a high orbit around the gas giant, in an effort to recover the probe.
A Malon freighter hails the ship and demands they leave. They blame Voyager for the loss of the first ship and its crew. The Malon captain insists that they will take the probe as compensation.
Janeway tells the captain that in the future, his species should stay away from vessels with Voyager markings, ending the transmission. Chakotay suggests that the reason they are after the probe is due to its multispatial technology, supposing that perhaps the Malons think it will help them find new places to dispose of their garbage. In the mess hall, Torres surprises Neelix , who says he has not seen many people due to the work on the new shuttle.
Torres states that she is there to catch up with him. She states that she would like him to make banana pancakes , like her grandmother used to make, as they always put a smile on her face. Neelix does so, and is befuddled when she doesn't eat them. Encouraging her to take a bite, she halfheartedly tells him that they are delicious and that she must get back to work. Meanwhile on the bridge, Janeway tries to decide what to do with the Malon crew still in orbit.
Seven contacts the captain that she has information concerning the Malon vessel. Once arriving in the astrometrics lab, Seven informs her that the Malon crew is creating a similar shuttle to Paris', and that they will finish before the Delta Flyer is ready. Janeway states that it looks like it is time for a race.
During construction of the Delta Flyer , Torres snaps at Vorik for making too much noise while other members of the crew each have personal opinions regarding the vessel. Tuvok and Paris disagree over when to launch the Delta Flyer.
Torres goes to the holodeck to run a simulation of the Delta Flyer entering atmosphere and disengages safety protocols in the holodeck for the third time. The results need to be treated with caution because of the possibility that the largest values in the past are unrepresentative, and the possibility that the behavior of the system has changed.
Extreme Risk
In cases where the event of interest is very different from existing experience, there may be no relevant guide in the past data. Nassim Nicholas Taleb argues in his black swan theory that the frequency and impact of totally unexpected events is generally underestimated. With hindsight, they can be explained, but there is no prospect of predicting them. Banks need to evaluate the risk of adverse events other than credit risks and market risks. These risks, called operational risks , include the major events most likely to cause bank failure, such as massive internal fraud.
The international compliance regime for banks, Basel II , requires that such risks be quantified using a mixture of statistical theory, such as extreme value theory , and scenario analysis conducted by internal committees of experts. A bank regulator such as the Federal Reserve in the United States oversees the result. Negotiations between the parties result in a system that combines quantitative methods with informed and scrutinized expert opinion.
I think it's a unique take on how depression can affect people and it's well acted by everyone.

Instead, it gets a score that's almost as bad as Once Upon a Time. It's really quite good and one of the more memorable episodes in my opinion. The only bad point is the plot device techno-babble B'Elanna uses with the phaser to save everyone at the last moment. Start your free trial.
