Ex Post Facto

During a friendly visit to the advanced world of Banea, Paris is accused of murdering the high-ranking husband of a woman who claims the lieutenant had an affair with her. Tuvok's detective skills and her own pet finally clear him, exposing a different culprit far more dangerous to the Baneans.
Emanations

State Of Flux

E11
When replicator technology turns up on a Kazon-Nistrim ship, Janeway suspects a collaborator. The Maquis are suspect, but who'd have thought Chakotay's old cell contained a Cardassian spy disguised as a Bajoran -- and his onetime lover?

Most Maquis by now have assimilated into Starfleet life, but one troublesome trio are sent to Tuvok's own version of "boot camp" to bring them in line. Their bitter conflict is overshadowed when all of Voyager is threatened by an infection to the ship's bio-neural gel-pack circuitry.
