Episode 147: Unimatrix Zero Part II



The last season! Almooost theeere! Stay on target.

Back on the cube, it’s okay, Janeway, Tuvok and Torres still have their personalities thanks to an anti-Borg injection. Get yours today! Tuvok’s shot though is starting to wear off, I’m sure that won’t be a problem. Oh it is, and Janeway is captured. In Unimatrix Zero, Seven is annoyed about the guy she had a thing with gets romantic advice from a Klingon. After Paris decides he’s First Officer somehow, Voyager attempts to rescue the away team but because the Borg have Tuvok’s tactical knowledge they are quickly defeated. Take that Chakotay. The Borg Queen has Janeway appear as a hologram in her uniform because, well, she can. So she can dress her as anything and has her in the uniform? Idiot. The Queen knows about Unimatrix Zero but can’t foil Janeway’s virus so she gives her a diplomatic mission but not to Alderaan. Janeway is to persuade the Borg to return or they’ll just be killed. The Queen then visits Unimatrix Zero and tells a child about the Borg. “You like having friends don’t you? Assimilation turns us all into friends”. I can’t make that any funnier than it is. While there she releases an amended virus to destroy the place. On Voyager the Doctor tells Seven that she may want to give her internet romance another chance. Janeway and Voyager get rid of the place so the Resistance Borg can go somewhere else. Seven’s fancy man tells her he will find her, presumably after having assimilated a Mohican. Sorry, “made friends with” a Mohican. Then Voyager and a rebel Borg Sphere attack the Cube to free the Away Team. Finally Janeway, Tuvok and Torres are cured of being Borg and there are no lasting consequences.

What is it with Voyager and civil wars? There’s been the Kazon, the Q and now the Borg. Next’ll be Voyager was made up of different factions... oh wait.
