6.19.99: The show begins with at a huge space station which hosts a bunch of aliens. Soon Voyager discovers three ex-Borg who are trying to separate from each other but can't, their only hope for sanity is to be re-joined to the collective. Eight years prior these three Borg and 7 of 9 were separated from the collective, and she's the one who forced them all to rejoin the Borg when they were thinking of leaving. Interesting Tidbits: Paris and Kim play a game with some aliens and misinterpret the rules and get in a bar fight... Seven and Naomi bond more... Chakotay and 7 have some good dialogue...
From The Vulcan Cafe.
6.15.99: a Seven of Nine episode. Seven runs into some ex-drones and learns of some "secret" from her past (could be a sleeper). Slated to shoot 6/18-6/29.
