Neelix, in charge of pacifying the Borg children when
lights on the ship flicker and fail, lets his imagination run wild and turns
reality into a fantastic but utterly believable story which mesmerizes the
children into believing that a ghost actually dwells on Deck Twelve.
As Neelix tells it, months ago an electromagnetic lifeform took possession
of the ship, shutting down all life support systems, while trying to communicate
with Janeway its need to return to the nebula from which it came. Area
by area was cordoned off by an invisible force field, and injected with
poisonous gas, while the captain set up an emergency command post in the
Engineering Room.
