"Janeway reminisces about one of her ancestors, Shannon O'Donnell from Indiana."
This was an excellent episode. It's a "flashback" to one of Janeway's ancestors named Shannon. She was one of the first female astronauts and helped usher in the construction of the Millennium gate. This monument somehow aided in the colonization of Mars. I still don't understand how. Anyway, the year is 2000 and for some reason Shannon is driving a 1970s Station Wagon. She then gets into a fender bender with a 1980s Camaro. Something seems a bit off here. Maybe it is because Janeway is telling the story and she doesn't have a good understanding of this time??
Anyway, Shannon ends up in a town where they are trying to bulldoze the downtown area to make way for the Millennium Gate. The storeowners do not want to leave. Shannon seeks shelter from the cold in a bookstore and befriends the owner, Henry.
So here is where Neelix interjects into the story because he has found some new historical info. Shannon tries to convince Henry to sell, because she was never an astronaut...she worked for the company that was building the gate. Henry finds this out and tells her to leave. She feels bad and comes back. Henry eventually does sell his store and ends up marrying Shannon. Come to think of it, non of this makes any damn sense. John Carroll Lynch is in this episode.
