    Are you saying the Borg planned for Seven to be sleeper agent when they sent her to negotiate with Voyager? That doesn't sound very Borg-like. I interpret the quote as saying "We put you there to speak on our behalf. You think you were liberated, but you were always Borg and now we will make the best of this situation and reassimilate you."

    @Thunderforge - I always took it to mean "we planted you there, where you could learn everything important about the Federation but in an environment where we could recapture you whenever needed"

    @Thunderforge - You may also wish to note that the Queen is not above lying for effect.

  • Fair point about the Queen lying for the effect. I guess I'm wondering if you are saying that they planned for a Seven to be de-assimilated by Voyager's crew. That seems far-fetched to me. Commented May 14, 2017 at 0:01

    @Thunderforge - That's precisely what I'm saying. We know from future episodes that the Queen was always able to directly communicate with Seven and to recall her to the Collective.
