Phage - S1-E5

Visible crew/equipment: Neelix says to Chakotay 'I don't understand, it's right here,' referring to the dilithium ore. As soon as the camera changes to show him walk into the large cavern, a boom microphone is quickly pulled away from covering his face. (00:07:45)

Blink of an Eye - S6-E12

Visible crew/equipment: After Gotana-Retz pilots Orbital 1 back to his planet, it then cuts to the Voyager bridge. In a following shot, just as Tuvok says, "Life support is failing," the boom mic dips into view at the top left corner of the screen. (00:40:55)

Flesh and Blood (1) - S7-E9

Visible crew/equipment: When the camera turns to face Tuvok as he approaches the crazed Hirogen, two stage crew members can be seen at the left side of the screen. The first is a rather plump man wearing what appears to be dark pants, and a short sleeve light shirt, while the second is squatting down in front of the first wearing shorts. (00:09:05)

Author, Author - S7-E20

Visible crew/equipment: During B'Elanna's turn as the EMH protagonist in the Doctor's holonovel, when mustached "Marseilles" (Tom) enters the room, there are two red T-marks on the floor near the door. Then during Neelix's version as the EMH, when "Captain Jenkins" (Janeway) orders "Tulak" (Tuvok) and "Kymble" (Kim) to take the EMH for reprogramming, white T-marks are visible on the floor. (00:11:40 - 00:15:15)

Elogium - S2-E4

Plot hole: In this episode Kes states that she has to decide now whether to have a child or not because Ocampa women can only get pregnant once and deliver one child. If that was the case they would have died out a long time ago, or never even evolved, as two people only getting one offspring would reduce the population to 50% of the original figure each generation.

Suggested correction: It's also possible that it's simply required of Ocampan women to give birth the first time they go through it, and can then experience it again.

Greg Dwyer

Nothing in the dialogue suggest Ocampa's can have additional children. While we can speculate about fictitious species, it's still a plot hole due to writing. Kes states she's going through the "elogium" which is a time of change where her body prepares for fertilization. She then explicit states the "elogium" only occurs once. While the doctor compares it to puberty, the elogium is both sexual maturity and "heat", that is, the time a female is ready for fertilization.

But it doesn't ever state the normalcy of birthing for Ocompans. Perhaps sextuplets is the norm?

Kes frequently used the word "child." If it was normal to give birth to more than one, she would know this and should say "children."

Bishop73

Do not forget that this is all done through the universal translator. For all you know the Ocompan word for child and children is the same so the translator cannot tell the difference.

Shannon O'Donnel: 5:00am, December 27th, 2000. I'm in the great state of...Indiana, I think. I saw the world's largest ball of string this morning and the world's largest beefsteak tomato this afternoon. It was the size of a Volkswagen. The string, not the tomato.
