Stardate 53447.2: The crew is on shore leave on the Norcadian homeworld and many of them enjoy the fighting game "Tsunkatse". Seven and Tuvok, however, take a shuttle for a survey mission, but they are captured by Penk, the Tsunkatse organizer, who forces Seven to fight in a match by threatening Tuvok's life. A Hirogen hunter trains her for her second match, a "red match" that will be to the death, but he doesn't reveal that he himself will be the opponent, and that, tired after nineteen years of imprisonment, his intention is to die in the fight. Seven and the hunter are rescued by Voyager before any of the two can finish the match the way it was intended.
