Customer Reviews of Star Trek - Voyager, Episode 41: Resolutions
Are Janeway and Chakotay the next Adam and Eve? Besides being stuck in the Delta Quadrant and trying to find their way back home, one of the biggest differences between the crew of "Voyager" and the various versions of the "Enterprise" on "Star Trek" was that Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) was female. Add to that how Janeway merged her crew with the Maquis led by Chakotay (Robert Beltran), whom she made her second in command, and you have a rather unique dyanmic at work between the captain and the first officer. On a symbolic level Janeway function as the father figure while Chakotay gets the mother's role, but the key thing is that they are the parental figures on "Voyager" and you know what parents do when all the kids are asleep and they have some time together. So there has always some sexual tension between the two characters, but there duties have always stopped them from pursuing any fleeting thoughts they may have had. All that changes with this episode.
"Star Trek: Voyager," Episode 41, "Resolutions" (Written by Michelle Piller, Aired May 13, 1996) simply comes up with a situation that forces Janeway and Chakotay to rethink their relationship. The pair contract an incurable virus during an away mission that it going to kill them. However, while on the planet they are shielded from its effects. Janeway gives command of "Voyager" over to Tuvok (Tim Russ) and orders him to continue towards home, leaving her and Chakotay behind. As the days pass, Janeway and Chakotay come to terms with facing the future together, no longer Starfleet officers, but a pair of human beings who are attracted to one another.
Meanwhile, back on "Voyager," Tuvok is following Janeway's orders to avoid contact with the Vidiians. However, the rest of the ship's officers want to pursue that option as a way of finding a cure for the captain and the commander. Of course Tuvok wants to be logical about the situation, but he is clearly facing a mutiny from the crew.
"Resolutions" is a first rate episode, creating a situation in which two characters have the freedom to strip away all barriers and deal with each other honestly. It has been clear from the star that Janeway and Chakotay respect each other, and it is fascinating to watch two adults deal with the realities of a future together. The obvious analogue is to Adam and Eve, which raises a whole bunch of interesting questions: do you have children when you are the only humans on a planet? But the chief attraction here is that these are a pair of adults, whose hormones are actually a smaller part of the equation than we normally see in a "Star Trek" love story.
The only complaint, and it is a minor one, is that "Resolutions" did not have as significant an impact on the series as it might have had. This was the second to last episode in Season 2, so it was not like there was time to build on what was established here, but you certainly did not the ramifications of this episode serving as a sub-text for the relationship between Janeway and Chakotay in the future the same way you did between Captain Picard and Doctor Crusher on "Star Trek: The Next Generation" after their mind-sharing experience. That aside, "Resolutions" is a classic "Voyager" episode.
Resolutions: Janeway and Chakotay outside of command
Resolutions is one of my favorite Voyager episodes. It may not be action packed, but it helps build the foundation of the friendship between Janeway and Chakotay. This is one of the few chances viewers get to see Janeway and Chakotay outside of a starship and the command structure. The episode also gives an opportunity to learn more about what makes Janeway and Chakotay tick. Although this episode is essentially Janeway/Chakotay interaction, there is also a side plot that gives Kim, Torres, Tuvok, and Kes some more screen time. Good acting on Kate Mulgrew and Robert Beltran's part kept the episode interesting for me.
