Natural Law *Synopsis: May 2, 2001 On their way to an intergalactic conference, Seven and Chakotay are deterred by an intense force field surrounding a planet. Blasting through to the surface, they find they're without communication to Voyager, with the delta flyer in shreds and isolated in the middle of a primitive society of hunter-gatherers. Webmistress's thoughts: Interesting story line, obviously refering to Native Americans. Chakotay is a Native American and could understand why it was necessary to protect their way of life. Seven's dilema over whether to protect their way of life or bring them into the 24th century is a typical problem many people face today about Earth's Native Americans. Was it just me or did anyone else notice that none of the natives talked? They had hand signals that they used, but was that their primary source of communication? Chakotay realized the value of the Prime Directive when the natives began painting tattoos on their foreheads like he has. That's when he realized the society had to be left alone.
