    Doc: I'm not sure. She's going into neural shock. I can't localise the source. Kes, try to stabilise her motor cortex. Use a neurosequencer. Kes, I said to stabilise her cortex or we're going to lose her.

    KES: I think the problem is in her colliculli. Yes, I can see it. A Borg implant. It's pressing against her trochlear nerve.

    EMH: Can you tell me how we might remove it without severing the nerve?

    KES: I think I can do more than tell you.



    (Kes' mind makes the tiny implant detach and dissolve. Seven stops moving.)

    EMH: The implant is deteriorating. Her nervous system is stabilising. Nice work, Kes. Unconventional but effective.

    (Later, the EMH shows Janeway an artificial eye.)

    EMH: They say the eye is the window to the soul. In this case it's a little bit more. I've fabricated this artificial organ to replace her eyepiece, but I've had to retain some of the Borg circuitry along the optic nerve. As a result, she'll have increased acuity in one eye. Note how perfectly I've matched the pigment of the iris to her human eye.

    EMH: She's out of immediate danger, and I don't plan to resume the extraction process until tomorrow. I can wake her now, if you'd like.

    KES: I feel exhilarated, Captain. I've never been so focused in my life, and my telepathic abilities are stronger than they've ever been.

    TUVOK: Your performance today was astonishing. However, your psychokinetic powers are still undisciplined, and as a result, unpredictable. :vulcan:
