Description:
Stardate 48840.5: Ma'Bor Jetrel is a Haakonian scientist, who was responsible for the development of the metreon cascade, a weapon of mass destruction that dissolved 300,000 Talaxians on a moon called Rinax more than fifteen years ago. Among the victims was Neelix's entire family. Jetrel comes to redeem himself. He claims that Neelix may be suffering from a deadly disease, metremia, brought about by the weapon, and confirms this when Neelix agrees to be examined. Jetrel proposes to use the transporter to collect samples of the metreon cloud around Rinax, to synthesize an antibody. It turns out that Jetrel suffers from metremia himself, in its final stage. However, Jetrel's claim that Neelix was suffering from the illness was just a pretext to utilize Voyager's transporter technology in his effort to restore the victims. Janeway agrees to the plan, but the attempt fails because the pattern decay is too strong.
