Sorting out what's real from what's not real isn't easy, especially when the being doing the choosing is a hologram who's beginning to suspect he's human! The starship's doctor (Robert Picardo) always thought he was a walking, talking program - an Emergency Medical Hologram wasn't supposed to bleed, feel pain, emit brain waves or have any other typical indicators of life. But these signs and other mysterious events lead him to think he's human...and that Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), Commander Chakotay (Robert Beltran) and others around him are mere holograms. As the Doctor struggles to determine what is and what is not reality, he also confronts an ominous decision: the only sure way to find the answer is to destroy Voyager.

Stardate 48921.3
Who will operate Voyager if it takes decades to find its way home? Should crew members start raising families so that they'll have replacement personnel for the starship in years to come? Those questions come to the forefront when swarms of space-swelling, protozoa-like life-forms attach themselves to the the starship because they think the ship is a reproductive mate.

The electronic field emitted by the swarms has a profound impact on Kes (Jennifer Lein), disrupting her biological clock and beginning Elogium, the phase in which Ocampan women become fertile. The process occurs only once in an Ocampan's life, so if Kes ever wants to have a child, she must find a mate now. She asks Neelix (Ethan Phillips) to father the child. But the prospects of parenthood may be more than he can accept.
