Star Trek Finally Gave Voyager’s Doctor a Name (After 8 Failed Attempts)

This episode centers around the Doctor (Robert Picardo), Ake (Holly Hunter), and SAM (Kerrice Brooks) journeying to SAM’s home planet to fix a problem caused by an injury she sustained during the attack on the Miyazaki. When SAM’s systems fail, the Doctor makes a remarkable decision: he volunteers to become her father. He spends seventeen years on her planet (equivalent to about two weeks in normal time due to the planet’s different time flow) raising her and giving her a childhood. Through this choice, Star Trek establishes the most significant identity the Doctor will ever have – a father.
