“Year of Hell” is a strange one—it’s about time, yes, but it’s not your usual “travel forward/travel backward” kind of setup. Instead, Voyager finds itself facing the Krenim, a society of scientists who weaponize time travel to turn themselves into a dominant empire. Transformed into an overwhelming force, the Krenim hound Voyager across their territory for a bloody, exhausting year, picking the ship and its crew apart slowly and painfully, until Seven of Nine discovers a way to undo the Krenim’s temporal manipulation.
