Description:
Stardate 48693.2: B'Elanna Torres beams samples of photonic energy aboard but loses one of them due to a containment breach. Harry Kim, who was on the holodeck in his free time, goes missing. Chakotay and Tuvok enter the still running holodeck program, based on the medieval epic of Beowulf. The two encounter a female warrior, Freya, who tells them that Bewoulf (obviously Harry's character) was killed by a monster called Grendel. The safety protocols are offline, so they have to act with caution. Chakotay and Tuvok are greeted by King Hrothgar, Freya's father, who is desperate about Grendel's frequent attacks on his people. In an attempt to examine Grendel, Chakotay and Tuvok vanish just as well. Paris prepares the Doctor to be transferred to the holodeck, in the hope that he, as a holographic person, may have better luck. The Doctor, under the name of Schweitzer, too runs into Freya, and he becomes romantically involved with her. He confronts Grendel in vain but can be transferred back to sickbay in the nick of time. B'Elanna finds out that the photonic energy is some sort of lifeform, and that Kim, Chakotay and Tuvok are their hostages. The Doctor returns to the holodeck with the container holding the remaining photonic energy sample. Unferth, one of the warriors, attempts to stab him but kills Freya who steps in front of the Doctor. The Doctor proceeds to Hrothgar's hall and successfully releases the photonic being in exchange for his three crewmates.
