EPISODE: LEARNING CURVE

Ashmore - Ensign on Voyager; Ensign Ashmore asks Neelix to make some macaroni and cheese. (Learning Curve)

Bioneural circuitry - Voyager is equipped with this circuitry in which traditional circuitry has been replaced by gel packs that contain bioneural cells that organize information more efficiently and speed up response time. (Caretaker) Voyager begins experiencing multiple failures in this circuitry; the Doctor discovers that the gel packs have caught a viral infection. (Learning Curve)

Brill cheese - Neelix makes this cheese using the schplict that Voyager got from the planet Napinne. (Learning Curve)

Burleigh, Beatrice - Her title is Lady Beatrice Flora. (Learning Curve)

Burleigh, Henry - His title is Viscount Timmons. (Learning Curve)

Cargo bay - Tuvok and the Maquis trainees become trapped in the Cargo Bay when the bio-neural network begins to fail sequentially. (Learing Curve)

Chell (Derek McGrath) - Bolian; former Maquis; he is one of the Maquis selected to participate in special training to help him adjust to serving on a Starfleet ship; Tuvok has him degauss the entire Transporter Room with a micro-resonator. (Learning Curve)

Circassian fig - Dalby tells Tuvok that "I don't give a Circassian fig what's tactically correct." after Tuvok will not let him go back to save Gerron. (Learning Curve)

Dalby, Kenneth (Armand Schultz) - Former Maquis; Male Crewman on Voyager; Dalby had a hard life on the Bajoran frontier; his wife was raped and killed by 3 Cardassians; Dalby then joined the Maquis and tried to slaughter as many Cardassians as he could; he is one of the Maquis selected to participate in special training to help him adjust to serving on a Starfleet ship; Dalby finally warms up to Tuvok after Tuvok goes back into the Cargo Bay to save Gerron. (Learning Curve)

Deck 2 - The Mess Hall is located on this deck; Tuvok had his Maquis trainees go from Deck 11 to the Mess Hall and then to Deck 13 by way of the Jeffries tube. (Learning Curve)

Deck 4 - Another malfunctioning of the gel packs occurs on this deck in section 9-C. (Learning Curve)

Deck 6 - The holodeck is located on this deck; the fluctuations in power on this deck cause Janeway's holodeck characters to disappear. (Learning Curve)

Deck 7 - This deck loses its gravitational grid when the bio-neural network begins to fail sequentially. (Learing Curve)

Deck 11 - Tuvok tells his Maquis trainees to report to him on Deck 11 at 19:00 hours; (Learning Curve)

Deck 13 - Tuvok clears this deck of all personnel for the evening so that he can have his Maquis trainees run 10 km on this deck; he increases the gravity on this deck by 10% during their run. (Learning Curve)

Deck 15 - This deck loses all power when the bio-neural network begins to fail sequentially. (Learning Curve)

Fever - The Doctor tells Janeway that humans respond to an infection by getting a fever; Torres proposes that infusing the gel packs with a high energy plasma burst from a symmetric warp field will raise the temperature of the gel packs; by giving them a "fever", the gel packs can fight off the viral infection. (Learning Curve)

Field training - Chakotay selects Dalby, Henley, Gerron, and Chell to participate in field training in order to help them adjust to serving on a Starfleet ship. (Learning Curve)

Gel packs - There are 47 gel packs in reserve; it is almost impossible to damage the gel packs but there is no way to replace them once the reserve runs out; half of the ships critical systems are run using these gel packs; the gel packs on Voyager begin malfunctioning when they get a viral infection. (Learning Curve)

Gerron (Kenny Morrison) - Male Bajoran; Crewman on Voyager; former Maquis; he is one of the Maquis selected to participate in special training to help him adjust to serving on a Starfleet ship. (Learning Curve)

Grakel milk - Also called schplict; this is one of the foodstuffs that Voyager gets from the planet Napinne. (Learning Curve)

Henley (Catherine MacNeal) - Former Maquis; Female Crewman on Voyager; she is one of the Maquis selected to participate in special training to help him adjust to serving on a Starfleet ship. (Learning Curve)

Isolinear circuitry - Chakotay suggests switching some fo the ship's systems to this type of circuitry when the gel packs begin malfunctioning. (Learning Curve)

Janeway Lamda one - Janeway's holodeck program in which she plays a governess. (Learning Curve)

Jeffries tubes - Tuvok has his Maquis trainees use the Jefferies tubes to go from Deck 11 to Deck 2 and then to Deck 13 to their 10 km run; Tuvok and his Maquis trainees access the Jeffries Tubes in order to escape from the Cargo Bay after the power fluctuation trap them there. (Learning Curve)

Kazleti - Chell tells Tuvok that the design on his medallion is a Kazleti design that he learned when he visited their planet. (Learning Curve)

Keela flowers - Neelix shows Tuvok these flowers which usually have strong, flexible stems to illustrate that Tuvok needs to "bend" a little in order to get through to his Maquis trainees. (Learning Curve)

Lady Beatrice Flora - Beatrice Burleigh's title. (Learning Curve)

Latinum bricks - Chell says that his pack feels like it's filled with latinum bricks. (Learning Curve)

Laurelian pudding - One of the foods that Neelix is preparing in his kitchen while Torres's team is searching the Mess hall for the source of the infection to the gel packs. (Learning Curve)

Macaroni and cheese - Ensign Ashmore asks Neelix to make this dish. (Learning Curve)

Magneton scanner - Torres suggests that Chell use a magneton scanner to degauss the Transporter room rather than the micro-resonator that he is using; the magneton scanner could finish the job in five minutes. (Learning Curve)

Manuel override - Gerron attempts to use this to get the Cargo Bay doors open. (Learning Curve)

Maquis - Chakotay selects four of his former Maquis crewmates (Dalby, Henley, Gerron and Chell) to undergo special training with Lt. Tuvok when they seem to have trouble adjusting to being on a Starfleet ship. (Learing Curve)

Mess hall - The Mess Hall is located on Deck 2; the source of the infection to the gel packs is traced back to the Brill cheese that Neelix has made in the mess hall. SEE: Galley (Learning Curve)

Micro resonator - Chell uses a micro-resonator to degauss the Transporter room. (Learning Curve)

Morale officer - As morale officer, Neelix helps Tuvok figure out how to get through to his Maquis trainees. (Learning Curve)

Nacelle control system - Janeway tells Paris to deactivate this system so that they can get the warp engines to run at 80% of maximum while the ship is standing still. (Learning Curve)

Napinne - Voyager visits this planet to get foodstuffs such as varmeliate fibers, whole green putillos, and schplict. (Learning Curve)

Plasma burst - Torres tells Janeway that they can raise the temperature of the gel packs by infusing them with a high energy plasma burst from a symmetric warp field. (Learning Curve)

Plasma gas - Plasma gas leaks into the Cargo Bay after one of the conduits blows out; Tuvok estimates that the gas will become toxic within minutes. (Learning Curve)

Romulan war bird - This ship appears in the war game stimulation that the Maquis trainees participate in. (Learning Curve)

Sandrine's - Tuvok takes Dalby to Sandrine's to play pool in order to try to get to know him better. (Learning Curve)

Schplict - One of the foodstuffs that Voyager picks up on the planet Napinne. (Learning Curve)

Symmetric warp field - A warp field that is inverted towards the ship instead of away; Torres tells Janeway that they can raise the temperature of the gel packs by infusing them with a high energy plasma burst from a symmetric warp field. (Learning Curve)

Transporter room - Tuvok orders Chell to degauss the entire Transporter room using a micro-resonator; Tuvok estimates that it will take 26.3 hours. (Learning Curve)

Varmeliate fibers - This is one of the foodstuffs that Voyager picks up on the planet Napinne. (Learning Curve)

Virus - The Doctor determines that the gel packs have a virus and that giving the gel packs a "fever" would help them respond to the infection. (Learning Curve)

Viscount Timmons - Henry Burleigh's title. (Learning Curve)

War game simulation - Tuvok has his Maquis trainees participate in a war game simulation in hopes that an exercise in teamwork will instill a sense of participation among the trainees. (Learning Curve)

Whole green putillos - This is one of the foodstuffs that Voyager picks up on the planet Napinne. (Learning Curve)
