Paris says that there are 32 vessels coming out of warp off the port bow...

Then we see them on screen approaching from the starboard side aft.

Tom, port is on the left, and the bow is the front part. Okay?

And I laughed out loud when I saw the warhead being !carried! by two crewmen from Engineering to Sickbay. It's the 24th Century and we still have humans moving dangerous objects around by hand.

Response Question: If they drop out of warp to port, why can they not move over to starboard?

They said they didn't want to risk "upsetting it" so perhaps they thought it wasn't logical to use any technology near it...

Maybe Paris had his display upside down?

This was a pretty good episode, though.

Did I miss something in this ep.? Are we to understand that the other bombs have been hanging about cooling their metaphorical heels for 3 years while waiting for their buddy to show up?

The war ended three years before. These missles were launched by accident some time after that.

I'm assumeing the planet on which the warhead was found was not the planet of origan. Perhaps the return order threw them into confusion. a plot hole however you look at it. There just not careful.

According to the episode, there were 34 warheads launched. One became the doctor and the other 32 surrounded the USS Voyager. This leaves one missing. Any thoughts on the disposition of the 34th warhead?

That was the one that exploded on the planet.

When they found the one that exploded, they figured out what the surviving one was.
