Star Trek VGR Episode 59 - Unity

"Chakotay answers a call for help on a planet and finds himself in the middle of a shoot-out between two groups of people while the Voyager crew discover an abandoned Borg ship."


U.N.I.T.Y thats-a unity. Remember that terrible song? So on the planet, Chakotay is taken in by ex-Borgs. After their Cube had been damaged, it shut off their "hive-mind" generator and they turned back to human/but still sort of Borg. Chakotay is helped by a Borg woman named Riley (who is very very cute). She tells Chakotay that they wish to be re-linked, he merges with the hive and is shown that they have sincere intentions. Janeway disagrees.

Also, Voyager has retrieved a dead Borg from the Cube and they have been examining it for critical info to give back to Starfleet ... someday. Suddenly Chakotay is mentally taken over by the hive and forced to turn the generator back on at the Cube. He does, re-linking the human Borgs. The Borgs then destroy the Cube, showing that they mean no harm to anyone. But now Chakotay wonders if they are sincere. Whatever. I like seeing the Borg, the episode was just OK though.
