So this is the first episode of Voyager that Bryan Fuller has written. That’s him who’s gone onto be involved with great shows like Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies. Y’know, ones that are cancelled.
In this Voyager is on the border of B’omar space trying to negotiate passage through it when Seven starts experiencing hallucinations and believes she is being called back to the Borg. Not the best of timings to go nuts and flying off in a shuttlecraft. Doesn’t she realise they hardly have any left?!
The thing with the B’omar (apart from their clothes look like a hockey mask and stained glass windows met in a trash compactor) is they seem not to want the Voyager crew to see their space. Needless to say then they reticently grant them passage through it so long as they go really slow and take the scenic route. Wait, what?!
I’m actually liking the character of Seven now. It’s probably by way of her whole attitude that every time she looks at one of the crew you could imagine her saying “You sicken me” to them. It’s also a nice counterpoint to the usual non-human wanting to become human, with her she doesn’t want to and would stay in her alcove all day. Well, who can blame her.
