Summary

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, "Demon," critically low on deuterium, Voyager makes a pit stop on a deadly planet. Harry and Tom get lost and encounter a strange silver liquid, but when Chakotay and Seven find them later, they're fine. The two are happily breathing the toxic atmosphere and enamored with the desolate landscape - which means all is not as it seems.
