Stardate not given: As it passes through the territory of the Devore, Voyager must frequently stop and allow the Devore to search it. The aliens’ government searches all visitors to keep telepaths from escaping their grasp, but unknown to the Devore, Janeway has already granted asylum to several telepaths aboard Voyager. Kashyk, the commanding officer of the Devore inspection teams, confides his desire to defect to Janeway, who not only gives him passage aboard her ship, but her heart as well. But is Kashyk really abandoning his people – or is his defection too good to be true?
