Star Trek VGR Episode 84 - Prey

The Hirogen may be one of the coolest aliens on Star Trek. They are really cool looking and very bad-ass. The armored suits look like everything I imagine a spacesuit should look like. Also the head Hirogen is played by Tony Todd ... again, he steals every scene. He may be my favorite Star Trek guest star. That voice is ridiculously hypnotic. So in this episode they "save" a distressed Hirogen who is a hunter that is tracking down a dangerous prey (in contrast to how good the Hirogen look, this thing looks awful). 7 of 9 ends up helping the Hunter track down the prey because she knows how dangerous the thing is. This is all against Janeway's orders, so 7 is disciplined and restricted to the Cargo Bay. ...Which I took as, she has to now live in the Cargo bay?? Seems weird.
