EPISODES IN WHICH THE BORG APPEAR or BORG-RELATED EPISODES

Go button Season Episode Episode name Synopsis Mini-pic

3 59 Unity Chakotay encounters what I call "Borg Lite" - a colony of ex-drones - but in order to forge a peaceful unified co-operative they want to re-activate thousands of drones on a nearby Borg cube.

3 & 4 69 Scorpion The Borg are losing a war against a species even more deadly - Species 8472 - and form an alliance with the crew of USS Voyager to combat the threat.

4 70 The Gift No Borg other than the ex-drone Seven of Nine appear in this episode, which charts her first steps toward becoming human. The story gives a few revealing insights into life as a Borg drone e.g. the need for the other voices.

4 74 The Raven When Seven is drawn by a Borg homing signal back to the USS Raven crash-site, she experiences vivid flashbacks of the moments up to her Borg assimilation. This story reveals information about Seven's human childhood and her parents.

4 94 Hope and Fear A vengeful alien humanoid, Arturis, seeks to drive Janeway and the USS Voyager crew into Borg space so that they can all be assimilated. This story gives a new perspective on the events in [Scorpion].

5 96 Drone A transporter accident results in a Borg super-drone being born on Voyager. Seven becomes his "mother" and all looks promising, until the super-drone summons a Borg sphere.

5 101 Infinite Regress Seven suffers extreme multiple personality disorder. The cause is traced to a Borg vinculum found floating in space debris. The vinculum was deliberately infected with a virus designed to attack Borg drones.

5 109,110 Dark Frontier Janeway decides to raid a Borg vessel for a valuable transwarp coil which will reduce Voyager's journey home. But Seven is contacted by the Borg Queen who offers her a stark choice: return to the Collective or see Voyager destroyed. Seven becomes a prisoner of the Borg Queen who wants to use her knowledge to assimilate humanity once and for all. A mass assimilation is seen in this story.

6 122 Survival Instinct Three former Borg drones ask Seven to help them piece together events missing from their memories, and so answer how they came to be re-assimilated into the Collective as a subset. Flashbacks in this story give a few insights into how Borg drones interact together.

6 136 Collective First of the Borg trilogy. Voyager encounters a Borg cube. The adult drones have all been de-activated by a pathogen and several Borg children have emerged prematurely from their maturation chambers opened prematurely. The Borg children try to seize technology from USS Voyager to use to contact the Collective.

6 138 Ashes to Ashes Second of the Borg trilogy, although the episode's main story is that of Ensign Lindsay Ballard. The four Borg children, whose Borg implants have been removed, are now living on USS Voyager. But they find adapting to human life difficult and trying.

6 139 Child's Play Third of the Borg trilogy. Icheb, formerly a Borg child, is unaware that he carries a genetic secret weapon. With Icheb on his way to a Borg transwarp conduit Voyager tries to rescue him, but the Borg tractor pulse locks onto Voyager as well.

6/7 146 Unimatrix Zero Unimatrix Zero is a place in cyberspace, where Borg drones that possess a rare mutative gene can gather. In this haven these drones regain their original individual identities and memories but only for as long as they are regenerating. But the Borg Queen is ruthlessly hunting them down and they turn to Seven for help that only she can bring.

7 148 Imperfection Seven's cortical node is malfunctioning. She will die unless a new one is found so Janeway leads an away mission to a Borg cube to obtain one.

7 157 Shattered When an anomaly shatters Voyager into different temporal periods, a Janeway from the [Caretaker] time encounters the Borg Seven of Nine from [Scorpion].

7 165 Q2 The Borg make a cameo appearance.

7 170&171 Endgame From a nightmarish future Admiral Janeway travels back in time to bring Voyager home and change history, but this means facing the doubts of her earlier self as well as the full might of the Borg. Anti-Borg armour and a Borg transwarp hub (one of only 6 in the galaxy) is seen in this story.
