The audience had waited in anticipation, for what was called the biggest interview ever performed in Harpo Studios. The theme music played and a holographic image of the iconic 21st century Oprah Winfrey, appeared on the set in all her glory. She waved to the audience welcoming them and then said:

"Welcome one and all! Today, we have perhaps our most fascinating interview yet! For the first time, these people are going on record about what their journey was really like. You have all heard their story. How they were taken to a different quadrant of the galaxy. How they had to merge their two crews in order to survive. And how they manage to make it home. It is my pleasure to introduce to them to you, from the USS Voyager... Captain Kathryn Janeway! And two of her closest associates, First Officer - Commander Chakotay and Chief of Security - Commander Tuvok!"

**APPLAUSE**



OOC: I'm going to bring the rest of the crew out after the first couple of questions. This is in line with how I have seen Oprah preform her interviews. Phantom, BozIan and Pete please feel free to make your entrance.

At the sound of the announcement Chakotay stepped forward from behind the screen that was shielding them from view. His usual lopsided grin on his face at the welcome they were getting. Even though he had stepped out first he had a reason. He stopped walking when the gap was big enough and turned slightly to the screen, holding his right hand towards the screen welcoming the captain to the stage "Come on Kathryn" he spoke just loud enough for her to hear him.

."So I assume I'm going to have to write up a report on your chronic over sleeping" -- Chakotay
"If you say a word of this to anyone..." -- B'Elanna
"I know you'll rip my heart out and eat it raw. Your secret's safe with me" -- Chakotay (Remember)

ooc: I love this story idea so much. I'm going to just assume there's a reason the less sociable characters have to participate. ;)

ic: Janeway did not like the press, but she liked court martials even less, and the admirals had basically ordered the senior staff to participate in this. So she plastered on a tight smile and followed Chakotay onto the stage, planning to let him do most of the talking. She doubted Tuvok would say more than "indeed" about anything.

NPC Holographic Oprah

Oprah allowed them a few moments to interact with the audience. Tuvok stared straight ahead and stood stiffly by Janeway. Chakotay was high-fiving some of the kids nearby. Oprah held her hand out to the officers, inviting them to have a seat. Captain Janeway sat closest to her, with Chakotay next to her and then Tuvok.

She turned to the camera and said, "Thank you for joining our two hour special. Today we will talk to the Voyager crew, they will share with us secrets never revealed before from the Delta Quadrant." Turning back to her guests, "It certainly is a pleasure to have you on the show today."

"So Captain, we know that your ship, along with Commander Chakotay's ship were transported into the Delta Quadrant and then stranded there. Tell us, when you started the journey back to the Alpha Quadrant, did you really think it was possible to see earth again?"

OOC: please pm me if you want to ask a question as an audience member. Give me your audience character's first name too.

"I never doubted it." It was anybody's guess whether that was actually true, but Janeway had spent so much of her life relentlessly fixed on the goal of getting home that she believed her words completely.

"Interesting," she said in awe. "Commander Chakotay, how difficult was it really to step down as Captain of your own ship and how did your crew feel about it?" she asked, sitting forward a little in anticipation of the answer.

"Well my ship was destroyed, so I had no option really, but the Captain needed a First officer so that made it a little.... shall we say sweeter" he the thought back to the first days on board Voyager and especially B'Elanna "As for how my crew took it , well we had one or two teething problems as my former crew got used to being Starfleet again".
."So I assume I'm going to have to write up a report on your chronic over sleeping" -- Chakotay
"If you say a word of this to anyone..." -- B'Elanna

"Fascinating, some say they would have made a more logical choice," she said looking right at Tuvok. Looking into the camera again she said, "when we come back we will meet more of the Voyager crew, stay tuned."

---

"And we are back. We have been chatting with the crew from USS Voyager, and we are about to meet more of the crew, please welcome B'Elanna Torres and Tom Paris, Harry Kim and Seven of Nine, the EMH and Neelix!" As she introduce each group they came out and briefly smiled, waved, etc. to the audience then took their seat on the couches that seemed to magically appear over the commercial break.

"Welcome all, thank you for being here today. I want to start with you Doctor, if I may refer to you as such. What was it like being the only sentient hologram on a ship full of humanoids?"

Oh boy. Janeway bit her lip. If given the chance, the Doctor would wax poetic about this subject for the next three hours. And probably plug his holonovel while he was at it.

ooc: :p

The camera was no stranger to the EMH. Performing live in front of an audience of hundreds, possibly even thousands of people was a breeze. He rose from his seat and in a grandiose manner, took a few deliberate steps forward, lifting his arms up to a sky that wasn't there.

"There I was, trapped in the Delta Quadrant, a sentient program with nothing but algorithms and subroutines coursing through this body of photons and forcefields, forced to co-exist with organics, both familiar and alien: human, Talaxian, Ocampa, Hirogen, Borg, and why yes, even Tom Paris! Yet through these trying times, battling aliens, maneuvering around various deadly spacial anomalies, and dodging the devastating effects of Neelix's Leeola Root Souffle, I managed to transcend my limitations and become the masterful, exquisitely talented Doctor that stands before you today."
