** Potentially justified, however, as however. In "Blood Fever", it's made clear that there are intensive meditation techniques that can be used to manage the symptoms. Both Spock and Vorik were going through their first instances of pon farr in those instances, while Tuvok has the aforementioned instances. Tuvok, being significantly older, will have had multiple prior experiences, meaning it’s something a good deal of experience with it, and is likely more manageable for him at this point.accustomed to managing it (despite the fact that Vulcan libido apparently ''increases'' with age).

* [[HeReallyCanAct She Really Can Act]]: Episodes in which Jeri Ryan get to show off her range as an actress are few and far between considering Seven is TheStoic to an extreme degree. But she gets to make up for it here with a ''spot on'' take of the Doctor.

* FridgeBrilliance: Why ''is'' a hologram - a holographic doctor, at that - having [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday "no homo"]] moments, anyway? Then again, of ''course'' Dr. Zimmerman would be lecherous enough to program his doppelgängers to be straight. And this is layered upon the fact that the Doctor, despite looking like a middle-aged man, is actually only about seven years old and all of it has been spent on the same ship with the same people. He simply has not yet had enough experience with life beyond what Dr Zimmerman already laid out for him to be anything else. As someone who is both functionally immortal and can change his physical body to fit any gender or sexuality that he desires, he'll have more than enough time once they get home to find himself.

* AngstWhatAngst: Tuvok's ''pon farr'' isn't played up as a big deal the way it is in [=TOS=]'s [[Recap/StarTrekS2E1AmokTime "Amok Time"]] or even ''Voyager's'' own [[Recap/StarTrekVoyagerS3E15BloodFever "Blood Fever"]], giving the sense that this b-plot was done more out of obligation than anything. Maybe it could've worked better if it had been saved for the two-part finale or simply given its own episode, but hindsight is 20/20.

* BrokenBase: Either a fun body-swap episode with a lot of laughs, or one of the more disturbing episodes simply because of the Doctor pushing the limits of consent. His HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday moments also rub some fans the wrong way.

* FridgeHorror: Consider all Seven's character development leading up to this episode, and then realize that her mind is active while ''her body is being controlled.'' Seven had every right to be pissed off at the Doctor, she was virtually a Borg again!
