  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Doctor. Report

  The Doctor : I... I did it.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : You completed the mission?

  The Doctor : Yes. Once the Romulans were out of the way.

  Tuvok : Romulans?

  The Doctor : They'd taken over the Prometheus, the ship I was on, but I managed to turn the tables on them with a little help from a fellow EMH

  Chakotay : You got through to Starfleet?

  The Doctor : I spoke directly with headquarters. Apparently, Voyager was declared officially lost fourteen months ago. I set the record straight. I told them everything that's happened to this crew. They said they would contact your families to tell them the news and promised that they won't stop until they've found a way to get Voyager back home. And they asked me to relay a message. They wanted you to know... you're no longer alone.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : 60,000 light years... seems a little closer today.

• [Janeway has updated some letters to her family] 

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : I know. It's premature.

  Chakotay : You're right. It's probably a mistake for us to get our hopes up at all. We've been through THIS before.

  [Janeway gives Chakotay a look] 

  Chakotay : All right, I'll admit it. I just finished a letter to my cousin in Ohio.

• [Torres complains vehemently about Seven of Nine's attitude and conduct] 

  Chakotay : What do you want me to do? Throw her in the brig for the rest of the trip home?

  B'Elanna Torres : I've heard worse ideas.

• Chakotay : [to Torres, about Seven]  I'm getting tired of playing referee every time you two have a disagreement. If you have a problem, talk to her yourself.
