THE RAVEN
Season 4 : Episode 74

 

 

MEDICAL REPORT:

The Doctor reports that Seven's digestive system is now fully functional. He gives her a PADD to give to Neelix containing details of her dietary requirements. See also DOCTOR'S QUOTE with screenshots below. These include 250 grammes of glycoproteins, consisting of 53 per cent polypeptides and 26 per cent fibrous glycogen (among other items). Neelix decides to cook her chadre'kab as he feels taste is important.

The Borg resonance signal located aboard Seven's parents' ship, the S.S. Raven NAR-32450 where she was assimilated at age 6, acts as a homing device which irresistably beckons Seven. Every Borg ship is coded to emit a distinct resonance frequency which serves as a homing beacon to guide Borg drones which have become separated from the Borg Collective. As a result of proximity to the resonance signal, Seven's hippocampus is in a state of agitation. The Doctor uses the matter conversion data from Seven's last transport on which to base his analysis.

There is a high concentration of Borg organelles in the bone marrow and lymphatic tissue. The dormant nanoprobes in Seven's cells reassert themselves, taking over blood cell production and growing new Borg implants. 13 per cent of the Borg technology the Doctor removed three weeks ago regenerates in a matter of hours. The hypospray he provides to Tuvok, for use to subdue and help Seven, contains a genetic resequencing vector which should neutralise the nanoprobes.

the Doctor gives the hypospray to Janeway, who later hands it to Tuvok on the Bridge

 

DOCTOR'S LOG:

Seven wears a new brown bodysuit, rather than the silver-coloured one seen previously. Both were designed by the Doctor.

DOCTOR'S QUOTE:

To Seven: "I'll draw up a list of nutritional requirements to take to Mr Neelix in the Messhall. I hesitate to inflict his cooking on you but it'll have to do."
