Equinox, part I
Opens with a Federation ship being torn apart in a battle.
They drop their shields to recharge their generator and aliens
begin beaming aboard. Meanwhile Voyager
gets the ships destress call. The ship turns out to be the
Equinox and Janeway
plots a course towards it.
When Voyager arrives at the Equinox asks them to extend their
shield around them quickly. They do as they ask and spacial
fishers which were appearing in the ship then close.
Tom, B'lanna
and Chakotay arrive
on the Equinox and find it badly damaged. Chakotay finds one
female crewman alive in the corner. Meanwhile Harry
and Seven find someone
burried under the rubble. Neelix finds a man in the crew quarters
who shoots a phaser at him. He misses and is taken out. Neelix
sends him to sick bay.
Tuvok and Janeway
make it onto the bridge finding the crew mutilated and Captain
Ransom badly damaged. Janeway discovered they were both brought
here by the caretaker, Max first officer of the Equinox knows
B'elana- went to academy together. Tom is jealous.
In astrometrics they work out a way to trap the aliens which
were attacking the ships as they are weakening Voyager shields.
Janeway proposes they make their stand on Voyager but the
other captain does not want to leave his ship. He is hiding
a big secret.
The Equinox crew plan to steal voyagers shield generator
and leave although some of the crew are not sure. Tuvok and
Seven realise the lab is being flooded internally. Janeway
sends the doctor to investigate without Ransoms knowledge.
The doctor finds
out the lab is being used to convert the alien species to
a crystalline substance for some reason. The doctor works
out they are using the aliens as a source of power.
Janeway questions Ransom about killing the aliens for a source
of fuel. He says he had no option and when they came into
contact with an alien species emitting antimatter they captured
it. It dies and when they examined it they found they could
use it as power.
Janeway confines Ransoms crew to their quarters. The doctor
beams to the Equinox and activates the Equinox deflector.
However he steals the doctors mobile emitter after revealing
he designed the experiment and goes to Voyager.
The fake doctor helps the crew break out and he disconnects
the shield grid. The Equinox beams to their bridge and attempts
to beam the field generator from Voyager.
The Equinox cannot get away and shields go down. The aliens
get on the ship. The Equinox gets an alien then runs for it
while an alien on Voyager attacks Janeway.
