Star Trek: 10 Things That Made You Cringe

10. The Doctor In Seven's Body

In the Voyager episode Body And Soul, Seven, Harry, and The Doctor were attacked by a Lokirrim patrol ship that was searching the area for illegal holograms, which were banned in their space.

In order to hide the holographic Doctor, Seven downloaded his program into her Borg implants, which transferred his identity into her brain, literally giving him control of her body and allowing him to experience real feelings for the first time.

The Doctor ended up doing some pretty invasive stuff with Seven's body. First, he tasted food and alcohol for the first time, and ended up overeating dozens of different things and getting way too drunk, leaving Seven with a killer headache. Then, after Seven was convinced to let him take control again to trick their captor, Ranek, he allowed Ranek to kiss Seven's lips, and experienced sexual arousal from a massage given by the alien Jaryn.

The line from Seven, 'You became sexually aroused in my body!' will forever be one of the most uncomfortable lines spoken in Trek history.

There was also an awful B-plot about Tuvok starting his pon farr and getting progressively more sexually frustrated, as he was unable to use the holodeck in Lokirrim space.
