Star Trek: Voyager: Season 6

6x03 Barge of the Dead

It's certainly one of the better B'Elanna episodes in a way, her anger management course continues. But she isn't reduced to being an engineer, angry Marquis, or a hot-head. Parts of this episode are from Worf's playbook: a person in between two worlds, at odds with both her paternal and maternal side. It's one of the few times, B'Elanna actually shows some degree of character development.

I like the Klingon mythology. It's all very Wagner-ish. It's a great take on Klingon culture, religion and what the after-life may look like (Neelix discovers there's nothing waiting for him - B'Elanna thinks that she has discovered quite the opposite).

PS: the alleged romance between Tom and B'Elanna is still not very credible. I can't feel much chemistry between them.
