In 2376, the USS Voyager came across what they thought was a fleet of ships. It was in fact Abaddon's repository. He immediately hailed them offering his services. While looking through his inventory of things to trade, the alien ship caught Lieutenant Paris' eye; stating that "it's a work of art. That ship wasn't assembled, it was sculpted." All Abaddon asked for it was "three used power cells and Tom's interactive record collection." Chakotay told him they already had a full complement of shuttles, but as Paris was clearly eager to get it, Chakotay approved.

Abaddon told him that the alien ship was special, and that he'd only sell it to a pilot he knew would take care of her. They left his establishment, and continued towards the Alpha Quadrant. Tom Paris went directly to restoring the vessel.

Harry Kim, who Tom Paris had volunteered to help restore the alien ship, assisted him in trying to start the ship up for the first time. Paris decided to name it "Alice", after Alice Battisti, whom he had pursued at the Academy. They found that the ship's power systems burned through power cells quickly, and just starting it up and running the neurogenic interface burned another one out.

Paris became obsessed with the alien ship to the point that he started ignoring B'Elanna Torres. Alice was able to project itself in Paris' mind as an attractive woman. The more he used the interface, the more he came under control of it. When Paris began to resist Alice and attempted to go to sickbay, Alice was able to send a small shock to Paris' brain, causing severe pain. With this "Alice" was able to make him launch the craft, and he became one with the machine and headed for a particle fountain, which Alice referred to as "home". Because Paris' mind was linked with the ship, weapons fired by Voyager hurt Paris directly. To defeat this Janeway ordered the Doctor to link Paris' and B'Elanna Torres' minds to distract Paris long enough to allow Tuvok to shut Alice down and beam Paris back to Voyager before Alice was destroyed in the particle fountain.

When strange things began happening to Paris, the USS Voyager contacted Abaddon to ask if he could help. He informed them that the ship was sold to him by Haakonians, who claimed it was haunted. However, when he attempted to give further information, Alice appeared to Abaddon, looking like a member of his own species, and ordered Abaddon to remain silent. Literally almost frightened to death, he suffered a cerebral hemorrhage. The Doctor was able to help him and gave him a cortical suppressant to prevent any further attacks. Abaddon revealed that he was once linked with Alice, who used a neurogenic interface to torment him until he found a pilot to guide her to an unknown point in space.
