Star Trek: Voyager: Difference between revisions

* [[Zeerust]]: It's several centuries old by the time of ''Voyager''.

 

* [[Depending on the Writer]]: {{spoiler|The story has four different authors, each with a different purpose.}}

* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: {{spoiler|Janeway rewrites the program to have an alien ship come to their aid, giving Tuvok time to snag a phaser rifle.}} At the end of the episode, the characters are [[Conversational Troping|sitting around, talking about the program]] and Tuvok compliments Janeway on this move. "[[Lampshade Hanging|Who says deus ex machina is an outdated literary device?]]" she responds.

* [[Executive Meddling]]: Janeway's insistence that the Holo-novel be completed over the wishes of the original author could be seen as a bit of this.

* [[Foreshadowing]]: Torres is complaining that the holonovel doesn't have any romance.

'''Torres:''' Oh, ''that's'' realistic! }}

* [[Holodeck Malfunction]]

* [[Who Writes This Crap?]]: Paris's comment the first time he runs the program when the holographic Tuvok in the brig suggests that they might need to spend as long as a week observing their captors for weaknesses. "A week?! Who wrote this stuff?"

* [[Writer on Board]]: Neelix's [[Heel Face Turn]] in the original program is undoubtedly due to Tuvok's dislike of the [[Alien Scrappy]], as well as his initial mistrust. As Tuvok had just been complaining about Tom's [[Out of Character]] revisions, Tom doesn't hesitate to call him on it. That being said, Tuvok abandoned and tried to delete the program over two years prior when his predictions failed to manifest.
