Production Notes
This episode began a 4 episode arc of the Voyager crew dealing with the Hirogen. While this episode and "Prey" were "stand-alone" episodes in their own right, when included with the 2-part episode "The Killing Game," the Star Trek franchise ventured into a story-arc genre that was also seen in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Star Trek: Enterprise. The "arc" was interrupted between "Prey" and "The Killing Game" by the episode "Retrospect." The death of the Maquis and B'Elanna Torres' reaction to her Maquis comrades' is developed even further during season 5 episode "Extreme Risk." The CGI effect used during the opening scene was also used in the opening segments of the season 2 episode "Deadlock."

And what goes on in it, the naming of the wind,
Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.”
