On my first watch-through and this episode was great, I love time anomaly episodes. Also really appreciated how, as the show comes to a close, this episode asks the question "Was the journey worth it? If they could go back and undo getting stranded in the DQ, would they?" And of course we discover through Chakotay's dialogue with Janeway that the journey has ultimately been worth it.

Anyway at the end, Janeway remarks that she knows where Chakotay hides the cider and cites the temporal prime directive. So does this imply she remembers the whole thing? If so that really kind of changes things for the whole show prior to this, for example she would have already known they were going to be stranded in the DQ from episode 1. So while I like the idea I'm having trouble reconciling it?

While possible, it's also possible Janeway is just fucking with him and where Chakotay hides his booze is an open secret.

That conversation was in the elevator, and Chakotay had just said he wasn't going to talk about what the experience was like because of the temporal prime directive.

Yeah that makes sense, she could totally be messing with him... which I guess would mean the timelines diverged and somewhere in the multiverse there's a Janeway that actually does remember everything! That helps my head-canon at least, thanks.
