Star Trek VGR Episode 146 - Unimatrix Zero

"Janeway, B'Elanna and Tuvok infiltrate a Borg Cube in an attempt to save Borg drones who are trying to develop individuality."

The plot of this Season 6 series finale and the continuation in Season 7 episode one, had a solid plot idea but the production of it just was not that good. It just never got that engaging.

7 of 9 starts "visiting" this utopia named Unimatrix Zero. You can visit this place in your mind, but it is still very real. This is where some Borgs were able to "go" and be their regular selves. On this plane, 7 had a lover named Axum. The Borg Queen is aware of this "place" and want to destroy it. Janeway travels to Unimatrix Zero with 7 and offers to help save it. The Borg Queen then offers Janeway a deal. She will get Voyager home if she doesn't interfere in the destruction of Unimatrix Zero. Of course Janeway refuses. Chakotay then has a crazy idea. Him, Janeway, Tuvok and Torres will infiltrate the Borg Cube. They will be purposely assimilated and then they can unleash the Borg virus. The Doctor has given them a shot to prevent full assimilation. ...finally season 6 is over.

146 down 26 to go
