"Repression" is the 150th episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek: Voyager, and the fourth episode of the seventh (and final) season of the series. It revisits potential conflict between Starfleet and Maquis crew members explored in "Worst Case Scenario" at the end of season three.
A series of attacks against former Maquis crew members baffles the Voyager senior staff. It is unclear how many former-Maquis crewmen were exposed to mind control techniques.
Themes include mind control triggered by a subliminal messages, repressed conditioning, the Vulcan mind-meld invoking uncharacteristic behavior, crew loyalties, the friendship between Commander Tuvok and Captain Janeway, and Tuvok's "hunches" which he can neither explain nor ignore.
