Voyager is on a role. Another original idea. The ship passes near a planet and the crewmembers start experiencing severe PTSD and flashbacks to a brutal land battle. They soon figure out that they had been involved in this fight, but their memories were erased. Slowly they remember and it soon becomes clear that during this battle they massacred 87 civilians. They are soon drawn to the planets surface were they remember more terrible details. Janeway finally discovers a giant monolith. This is a war memorial, but it also sends messages into space. These messages are what is causing the crew to "relive" the war. They were actually never there at all but are "learning" about this tragedy through the monolith. I think that is a cool plot. I sort of wished that they really did take part in the fight though.
In the beginning, as a present for Paris, Torres replicates a 1950s style TV. I get it that Tom is into 20th century Earth history. But, that would be like someone giving me an astrolabe. Actually that would be cool.

Would presents even exist in the future? What would be the point if you can just replicate anything for free? I guess picking out the perfect thing to replicate would show that you care enough about the person to know their likes, but if they really wanted something, wouldn't they have already replicated it for themselves?
The replicator and holodeck seem cool, but really wouldn't it just make life completely fake.

"Wait... what?"
"You're the fucking computer. Figure it out!"
