"Scorpion" Line-by-Line

[LeadHead]

Borg Collective: Your primitive communication is inefficient.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TUVOK: On the contrary. We work better with our individuality intact. Surely, we've proven that to you by now.

 

[LeadHead]

Borg Collective: Irrelevant. You must comply.

 

[kathrynjaneway]

JANEWAY: We must do nothing! Tell your drone to remove the transceiver. What about choosing a representative? A single Borg we can work with and talk to directly.

 

[Leandar]

Borg: Elaborate.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: You've done it before, when you transformed Jean-Luc Picard into Locutus! We will NOT BE ASSIMILATED! Chose a representative or The Deal is off!

 

[Leandar]

(A panel opens and Seven of Nine walks out)

Seven: I speak for the Borg.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: I'm Captain Janeway. This is Lieutenant Tuvok.

 

[kathrynjaneway]

SEVEN: We are aware of your designations.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: What is your designation?

 

[Leandar]

Seven: Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero One. But you may call me Seven of Nine. You are proposing a large-scale weapon. We concur.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: I thought you might.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

TUVOK: We could encase the nanoprobes in some of our photon torpedoes. In essence, turn them into bio molecular warheads.

 

[Brian]

SEVEN: Your torpedoes are inadequate. They lack the necessary range and dispersive force.

 

[LeadHead]

Janeway: Do you have a better idea?

 

[Garm Bel Iblis]

Seven: We are Borg.

 

[kathrynjaneway]

TUVOK: I take that as a yes.

 

[LeadHead]

Seven: A Multikinetic Neutronic Mine. 5 million isoton yield.

 

[kathrynjaneway]

TUVOK: An explosion that size could affect an entire star system.

 

[LeadHead]

Seven: Correct. The shockwave would disperse he nanoprobes over a radius of 5 light years.
