To improve his performance as the ship's physician, The Doctor (Robert Picardo) undertakes a personality enhancement project on the Holodeck, incorporating several accomplished historical figures' traits and temperaments into his Starfleet database. But he also adopts several aberrant character traits from those non-fictional figures and is soon over taken by a dangerous, cruel Mister Hyde-like personality.

Meanwhile, Voyager hosts the Mikhal Travelers, a race of explorers with extensive knowledge of the territory. As Kes (Jennifer Lein) spends time with one of them, Zahir (David Lee Smith), she's overwhelmed with feelings that, having lived one third of her life, she's reached a crossroads and asks permission to leave the ship.

After Ensign Kim suddenly exhibits abnormal behavior, he instinctively leads the U.S.S. Voyager to a mysterious planet, the Taresian homeworld. There, a shocking story of his birth is told by members of the almost exclusively female population -- Kim is part alien -- and they want him for reproductive purposes.
