Seska : Why create a thoron leak if you're not hiding someone?
The Doctor : I would think it's obvious: To make you believe I was hiding someone. I've had your people crawling through the bowels of this ship for hours, looking for an intruder.
Seska : You're more talented in the art of deception than you led me to believe.
The Doctor : I was inspired by the presence of a master.

Seska : Doctor, I have to inform you about a change of command. I'm curious how you'll react. The Kazon-Nistrim have taken Voyager.
The Doctor : [flatly while examining Seska's baby] How interesting.
Seska : Does your program have any problem with that?
The Doctor : One humanoid is pretty much the same as another from a holographic point of view. I'm programmed to provide medical care to anyone who needs it.
Seska : Tell me, is it within your program's capabilities to lie or be deceptive?
The Doctor : I've learned that a bedside manner occasionally requires me to... how shall I put it... soft-pedal the truth? But bald-faced lying, calculated deceit - I don't have much experience with that sort of thing; but, my program is adaptive. If you really need me to be deceptive, I'm sure I could learn.
Seska : It's not exactly what I meant.
