[VOY] Season 4, Episode 2: The Gift
Rating: 3
This episode should be watched for continuity. They also did a decent job of showing how a Borg would feel about getting pulled from the collective after being a Borg for most of her life.

Notes:
7 of 9 is upset. She wants to go home.
Kes is movin stuff with her mind.
When something starts to go wrong with 7 of 9, Kes looks into her brain and fixes the problem!
The Doctor helps Janeway set up her webcam.
Tuvok tries to help Kes understand her new abilities.
7 of 9 helps take down some of the borg stuff. Kim tries to make conversation with her and 7 of 9 gets bored.
But then 7 of 9 hits Harry, which causes him to run into the security guard, apparently knocking them both out…
But then Kes stops 7 of 9 with her mind! Get it? Kes is doing a lot of mind stuff. She’ll probably be around this show for a lot longer.
Janeway isn’t allowing Seven to make her own decisions until she stops being such a borg about everything.
Janeway did some research on who 7 of 9 was before she was assimilated. Janeway asks to know more about this girl, like her favorite color. That means there’s going to be a scene at the end where Seven randomly says a color, and it confuses everyone, but then she explains that it was her favorite color, and it symbolizes her beginning the transition. Ugh I can’t wait.
Kes’ powers are destabilizing things, so she says she’s gonna peace out
But then she accidentally starts making things blow up. They rush her to a shuttle.
Tuvok gives her a quick mind meld to slow her time bomb or something
She makes it off the ship and starts to glow, Wesley/Traveler style.
Kes blasts Voyager all the way past Borg space, a distance that would’ve taken them 10 years to cover.
Meanwhile the Doctor made Seven a lot more human and gave her a shiny catsuit with high heels.
