    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      "Dark Frontier" won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series. Star Trek nearly swept the category that year; also nominated for it were Thirty Days (1998), Timeless (1998), and What You Leave Behind (1999).
    • Goofs
      The Borg Queen says that Seven is the only Borg to return to a state of individuality. Either this is a deliberate or convenient deception, or she is unaware of the recurring characters 3rd-of-5 ("Hugh") and Locutus (Captain Picard's alter ego) from Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) and the colonists from Unity (1997), although it is conceivable she was unaware of the latter.
    • Quotes

      [Janeway examines a spherical object]

      Harry Kim: Captain! Don't touch that.

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: What is it?

      Harry Kim: I don't know, but a few minutes ago it was crawling around the floor.

    • Alternate versions
      Some material was cut from the original feature-length episode when it was split in two parts for reruns, to make room for extra credit sequences and the "previously on" segment. In later airings of the two parts, the cut material was restored. One restored scene shows Seven getting angry after hearing Harry Kim and Tom Paris making anti-Borg remarks in the mess hall.

    Rescue
    After realizing that Seven was being manipulated into her desertion by the Borg, Janeway decides that she will attempt a rescue. Except for the maudlin scenes of Seven's childhood and her rather clueless parents (brilliant scientists though they are), this is quite exciting. At times it's hard to see what the Borg have to gain, but they are intrigued by the one member of their species that has left the collective and become and individual. Of course, it's all about going to Earth and taking over the population, turning all earth people into drones. Seven vacillates between her humanness and her Borgness. She is, indeed, conflicted. It's an exciting conclusion and, of course, this being a TV series, we make assumptions about the conclusion.
