"Q visits Voyager with a proposal for Janeway as civil war breaks out in the Q Continuum."
What a bizarre episode, but I guess most Q ones are strange anyway. I always enjoy seeing Q, even though he annoys the hell out of me. He serves as a good way to break up the shows monotony. So in this episode, Q shows up in Janeway's quarters at night and wants to have a baby with her. Q's ex-wife eventually then shows up and she is obviously irritated.
Q then abducts Janeway and takes her to the Continuum where there is a civil war going on. In fact it is playing out like the American Civil War ... for some reason. While Q and Janeway fight to stop the Civil War, Voyager is witnessing a bunch of supernovae happening around the galaxy. This Q civil war is causing the galaxy to die. Q's ex-wife is the only one that can help get Voyager to the Continuum to save Janeway, so she basically is given command of the ship. And she is a huge bitch. I like her.
The Q's begin to lose their powers because of this situation. Voyager arrives, they save Janeway and Q just before they are about to be executed. They then stop the Civil War by defeating "the south". Q ends up back with his ex-wife, and he asks Janeway to watch them have sex?? They just touch fingers, that's it.

I hated this episode. Remember when the Q used to be mysterious and cool?
Agreed. They started to make them look more and more like bafoons.
Q didn't work when they had him on DS9, so I wish they had understood he really only works as a counter-point to Picard. Every Trek series is different, so they sometimes try to force in these cross-over characters and it doesn't really work. Q's last appearance should've been in the finale to All Good Things.
