"The Gift" Line-by-Line

[JanewayRulz!]

[Sickbay]

(Seven's skin is now pink.)

EMH: Ready when you are, Captain.
(He wakes Seven.)
EMH: Don't be alarmed. You're in Sickbay. You're going to be fine.

 

[Catarina]

Seven: What have you done to me!?

 

[JanewayRulz!]

EMH: Your body was rejecting the Borg technology. You were dying. I'm sorry, but we had no choice. Those are dermoplastic grafts. They'll help the regeneration process.

 

[Orac]

7: Unacceptable. You should have let us die.

 

[hux]

JANEWAY: I couldn't do that.

 

[Catarina]

Seven: This drone cannot survive outside of the collective.

 

[hux]

EMH: I beg to differ. Now that the Borg implants are being excised, your human systems are free to thrive. And thriving they are. As a matter of fact, I...

(Janeway silences him with a Look. He walks away.)

 

[Orac]

Janeway: I want to help you, but I need to understand what you're going through.

 

[Catarina]

Seven: Do not engage us in superficial attempts at sympathy.

 

[Orac]

Janeway: It's obvious that you're in pain. That you're frightened. That you feel isolated. Alone.

 

[Catarina]

You are an individual. You are small. You cannot understand what it is to be Borg.

 

[hux]

JANEWAY: No, but I can imagine. You were part of a vast consciousness, billions of minds working together. A harmony of purpose and thought. No indecision, no doubts. The security and strength of a unified will. And you've lost that.

 

[Catarina]

This drone is small now. Alone. One voice, one mind. The silence is unacceptable. We need the others!

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: I can't give you back to the Borg, but you're not alone. You're part of a human community now. A human collective. We may be individuals but we live and work together. You can have some of the unity you require right here on Voyager.

 

[Catarina]

Insufficient.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

JANEWAY: It'll have to do. And the fact is, this community needs you. The Borg modifications you made to our vessel are disrupting our warp drive. We need your help to remove them, your expertise, your cooperation. You must comply.

 

[hux]

[Engineering]

TORRES: All right, I think I've got all the Borg garbage out of the plasma intake manifold. Let's try reinitialising the antimatter reaction.

 

[Catarina]

KIM: Matter antimatter reaction at twenty two cochranes and rising.

 

[hux]

(Then it stops again.)

TORRES: Damn! What happened?

 

[LeadHead]

Kim: Intake manifolds 11 and 13 are still blocked.
