An away team of Torres, Paris, and Durst is captured by Vidiians. Paris and Durst (who, in the great tradition of ST, is going to die because he is not a regular) are put to work in the mines, digging tunnels. Torres has her Klingon DNA extracted and used to create a copy of herself that is full Klingon, leaving two of Torres: one aggressive toothy Klingon, and one relatively wimpy and initially scared human. They overcome their differences to work together to escape, with the help of Chakotay, who has been surgically altered to look like a Vidiian.
Nitpick: Supposedly, the Vedeans need prisoners to dig tunnels because they are weak. This race has highly developed technology, some of it much more highly developed than the Federation. Can’t they simply blast tunnels using phasers or more advanced tools? Do they still need people to carry rocks?
