Re: VOY S5: Counterpoint

I really enjoyed this episode! However, isn’t the biggest question mark that the episode ended on a positive note, with Voyager flying away, scot free, rather than ship and crew imprisoned? Isn’t it a HUGE gamble to presume they’ll be let go just so Kashyk‘s reputation won’t be soiled? Wasn’t it more likely that he would have done what he was supposed to do — turn them in? Or is Janeway so absolutely sure of her read on her read of Kashyk’s character that she’s willing to gamble everything on it? I just thought I’d raise this, as it doesn’t look like anyone else in this thread has addressed it yet, and it’s huge.
