Dream a little Dream

It's pretty much "Voyager" doing "Abres Los Ojos" (Open Your Eyes). Like in that film we see that the Voyager crew is having their perceptions of reality be put to the test.

This episode I'll just say is a real rug puller. Just like with the crew were kinda in the same boat as even our perceptions of what were seeing are being challenged, where sometimes we think that one or all have returned to reality but then suddenly we discover their still in the dream world.

I really like how throughout the episode there is just an unsettling feeling, where you know in the back of your mind something isn't right. From certain things happening fast you don't even see it coming or seem surreal, or even how in a scene or two you suspect things are going a little too easily. There were two scenes I'll admit took me by surprise from seeing Seven O Nine immediately make out with Kim, I remember thinking yes but then also nah it's too good to be true and unfortunately I'm right.

But there is a really creepy scene where we see Janeway go into the mess area and we see the lights are off in that area, and then suddenly they come on and we see the tables are filled with corpses, reminded me of the scene from the horror film "Deranged". At that moment you know everything on the bridge isn't Kosher.

Before you wake up, make sure your awake.
