I'm not sure I've seen a "bad" episode with Seven yet. I can say the same thing for Tuvok. My two favorite characters of this series with Paris and the Doctor both being right up there for me too.
Once again--at this point, you just have to "go with" how many times they've had to crash land a shuttle craft-- we have more stranded crewmembers as Chakotay and Seven find themselves stuck on a planet with an energy barrier.
This time, they come across a friendly but extremely primitive humanoid species. Chakotay with a broken leg is unable to avoid them, and Seven is left to try and find a way through the energy barrier to emit a signal for help.
The humanoids find a way to help Chakotay's leg and a young girl helps guide Seven to the fallen debris of the shuttlecraft. The relationship she forms with the young girl is touching as Seven finds hereself violating her own principles--as well as Starfleet's--to save the girl's life. One of the best things I love about this series is how Seven continues to evolve and learn. I wish the same could be said for the other characters--save for the Doctor.
On a humorous "B" story, Paris is forced to take a safety piloting course after breaking rules of pilot safety. Of course, there may be no better pilot in the Star Trek universe than Paris, and it's his quick thinking and superior skills that helps preserve the humanoid species in the end.
