Aft sensor array - Tuvix asks Paris to take the ship out of warp so that he can conduct a field test of the aft sensor array. (Tuvix)
Andorian amoeba - This is an example of a symbiogenetic species that reproduces by merging with another single celled organism to form a hybrid. (Tuvix)
Annular confinement beam - Kim tells Hogan to try narrowing the annular confinement beam when they are beaming up Tuvok and Neelix. (Tuvix)
Ayala - Ayala is one of the officers on the bridge that Tuvix appeals to when Janeway wants to take him away to undergo the separation sequence. (Tuvix)
Barium - This was administered by physicians until the late 21st century to patients with certain gastrointestinal conditions; the radioactive properties of the barium made the lining of the intestines visible with an imaging technology called Xrays, the Doctor suggests they use something similar to barium to help restore Tuvok and Neelix. (Tuvix)
Biochemical analysis - The biochemical analysis of the orchids show that the plants have chloroplasts; lysosomal enzymes and cytoplasmic proteins; the analysis shows nothing unusual. (Tuvix)
Bio-scanners - The bio-scanners indicate that Tuvok and Neelix's patterns have merged. (Tuvix)
Bio-spectral analysis - The Doctor has Kes run a full bio-spectral analysis on Tuvix. (Tuvix)
Chrysanthemum - The Doctor and Kim merge a chrysanthemum and a clematis into single hybrid flower by transporting them along with one of the symbiogenetic orchids; they are able to separate the hybrid back into the two flowers by using a radioactive isotope. (Tuvix)
Clematis - The Doctor and Kim merge a chrysanthemum and a clematis into single hybrid flower by transporting them along with one of the symbiogenetic orchids; they are able to separate the hybrid back into the two flowers by using a radioactive isotope. (Tuvix)
Deck 5 - Sickbay is located on this deck. (Tuvix)
Execution - Tuvix tells Janeway that forcing him to submit to the separation procedure would be like an execution like they used to do to murderers centuries ago. (Tuvix)
Funeral dirge - While on the planet, Neelix sings a Vulcan funeral dirge; he says that it was the most cheerful song he could find in the Vulcan database. (Tuvix)
Hogan (Simon Billig) - Hogan and Kim are operating the transporter when Tuvok and Neelix are merged into Tuvix. (Tuvix)
Hybrid - A symbiogenetic species merges with a second species to form a hybrid; the Doctor and Kim merge a chrysanthemum and a clematis into single hybrid flower by transporting them along with one of the symbiogenetic orchids; they are able to separate the hybrid back into the two flowers by using a radioactive isotope. (Tuvix)
Jupiter Station - Tuvok was once stationed at Jupiter station temporarily. (Tuvix)
Lysosomal enzymes - Tuvix says that the orchid's lysosomal enzymes could be evidence of symbiogenesis. (Tuvix)
Mark - Janeway says she still dreams about being with Mark and misses him terribly; she admits to Kes that someday she may have to accept the fact that he's not part of her life anymore. (Tuvix)
Mess hall - Tuvix orders everyone out of the Mess hall when it is in chaos when everyone is trying to fix dinner for themselves. (Tuvix)
Microcellular scan - A microcellular scan of Tuvix doesn't reveal any clue as to how the transport accident happened or how to separate Tuvok and Neelix again. (Tuvix)
Molecular imaging scanner - Torres says that there is a minor glitch in the molecular imaging scanner right before Tuvok and Neelix are beamed up; the scanners would have to be modified to find a way to compensate for the higher levels of radiation in the radioactive isotope that the Doctor wants to use to separate Tuvok and Neelix. (Tuvix)
Mushrooms - Tuvix uses a more moderate seasoning on the Tarellian crepes which allowed the flavor the mushrooms to come through better. (Tuvix)
Neevok - This is the first name Tuvix suggests when Kes asks him what should she call him; he chooses the name Tuvix instead. (Tuvix)
Numerian Inquisition - Tuvix says he feels like he has been dragged in front of a Numerian Inquisition when Janeway wants to talk to him. (Tuvix)
Ocampan prayer tapers - Kes is burning Ocampan prayer tapers when Tuvix comes to her quarters; one is for Tuvok and one is for Neelix. (Tuvix)
Orchid - Tuvok and Neelix are on the planet looking for a variety of orchid that may be a valuable nutritional supplement; this is Tuvok's favorite flower; Tuvok and Neelix were beaming up to Voyager with several dozen samples of an orchid when their patterns were merged; the lysosomal enzymes of the plant could be evidence of symbiogenesis; the Doctor and Kim merge a chrysanthemum and a clematis into single hybrid flower by transporting them along with one of the symbiogenetic orchids. (Tuvix)
Proximity detector - Tuvix goes to the bridge at 0400 to work on a glitch in the proximity detector; Tuvok said that it would take up to 10 days to check out all the possible problems; Tuvix was able to fix it quickly because he "had a hunch". (Tuvix)
Radioactive isotope - The Doctor finds a radioactive isotope that can selectively attach itself to the DNA of one of the merged species but not the other so that they could beam out the selected DNA sequences of the two merged species; the Doctor and Kim use the isotope to separate the hybrid flower back into a chysanthemum and a clematis; Janeway administers the isotope to Tuvix and then uses the transporter to separate him back into Tuvok and Neelix. (Tuvix)
Sandrine's - Tuvix is playing pool with Chakotay and Paris at Sandrine's. (Tuvix)
Swinn (Bahni Turpin) - Female Crewman on Voyager; she is one of the crew in the Mess hall trying to make dinner since Neelix isn't there. (Tuvix)
Symbiogenesis - The lysosomal enzymes of the plant could be evidence of symbiogenesis; this is a rare reproductive process in which a species reproduces not by pollination or mating, but by merging with a second species; the symbiogenetic properties of the orchids caused Tuvok and Neelix to be merged in to Tuvix. (Tuvix)
Transporter - After the transporter accident, they run a diagnostic on the transporter and find that everything is functioning normally. (Tuvix)
Trellian crepes - On Wednesdays Neelix always cooks Trellian crepes for Kes; this is Kes's favorite meal; Tuvix fixes them for her; Neelix always makes them a little too spicy. (Tuvix)
Tuvix (Tom Wright) - When Tuvok and Neelix's molecular patterns are merged during transport, Tuvix materializes on Voyager; Tuvix has memories of both men but has only one consciousness; Tuvix becomes a valuable officer on Voyager and is well liked by the crew; his cooking is better than Neelix's; he keeps a respectful distance from Kes since he senses that she needs some time to adjust to him; Tuvix decides he doesn't want to die when the Doctor and Kim find a way to restore Tuvok and Neelix; he says that he thinks of Tuvok and Neelix as his parents; he asks Kes to speak to the Captain on his behalf; he tries to run away when Janeway decides to go through with the separation procedure; Tuvix ceases to exist when Tuvok and Neelix are restored. (Tuvix)
Wednesday - On Wednesdays Neelix always cooks Trellian crepes for Kes. (Tuvix)
Xrays - According to the Doctor, this was a primitive imaging technology that was used along with barium to view the lining of the intestines for certain gastrointestinal conditions. (Tuvix)
