Seven of Nine
- Chakotay: You're getting what you wanted. I suggest we part ways amicably.
- Seven of Nine: There is another option. We could assimilate your vessel.
- Chakotay: If a single drone steps one millimeter out of that cargo bay, I'll decompress the entire deck. You won't pose much of a threat floating in space.
- Seven of Nine: When your captain first approached us, we suspected that an agreement with humans would prove impossible to maintain. You are erratic, conflicted, disorganized. Every decision is debated, every action questioned, every individual entitled to their own small opinion. You lack harmony, cohesion, greatness. It will be your undoing.
- [Tuvok suggests using Voyager's photon torpedoes equipped with nanoprobes against Species 8472]
- Seven of Nine: Your torpedoes are inadequate. They lack the necessary range and dispersive force.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: Do you have a better idea?
- Seven of Nine: We are Borg.
- Tuvok: [to Janeway] I take that as a yes.
- Seven of Nine: Voyager's weapons inventory: Photon torpedo complement - 32, class 6 warhead. Explosive yield - 200 isotons.
- Tuvok: How did you obtain this information?
- Seven of Nine: We are Borg.
- Tuvok: Naturally.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: What's YOUR... designation?
- Seven of Nine: Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero One, but you may call me Seven of Nine.
- [Seven of Nine urges Chakotay to turn Voyager around and meet with a Borg vessel]
- Chakotay: Look, I'll honor the original agreement, but I'm not turning this ship around. It's too dangerous.
- Seven of Nine: Denying our request is also dangerous.
- Chakotay: I'll think about it.
- Seven of Nine: Think quickly.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: You're asking me to give up my only guarantee that you won't assimilate us. I won't risk it.
- Seven of Nine: Are you willing to risk a direct confrontation with us? If we transport 500 drones onto your vessel, do you believe you could offer sufficient resistance?
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: We'd die trying.
- Seven of Nine: [about Species 8472] Their technology is biogenically engineered. It is superior to that of all other species we have previously encountered.
- Tuvok: Which is precisely what you wanted.
- Seven of Nine: They are the apex of biological evolution.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: You're human, aren't you?
- Seven of Nine: This body was assimilated 18 years ago. It ceased to be human at that time.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: I'm curious. What was your name?
- Seven of Nine: Do not engage us in further irrelevant discourse.
- Seven of Nine: You are individuals. You are small and you think in small terms, but the present situation requires that we consider your plan.
- Seven of Nine: All remaining bioships in the Delta Quadrant are returning to their realm. The Borg have prevailed.
- Captain Kathryn Janeway: With a little help from us.
