Star Trek: Voyager: Unity (1997)
Missteps but a purpose
With the Borg being The Federation's greatest foe, this show jump started the BEST Borg episodes ever created. Nobody created better Borg episodes that Voyager.
For the cynic who thinks Voyager often falls astray of trying to get home each and every episode, I'd like to remind everyone that Star Fleet also had it's supplementary goal to lean new things as opportunities arose hence the reason we commonly see many episodes drift off track. Life isn't just about the destination - it's about the journey.
The scene where the attractive Borg intimates a different type of closeness is a real feeling and one not worth overlooking. As a metaphor, I'd call it like the moment we fell in love v/s the way we stay in love decades later and yet with such GREATER intimacy even though the physical expressions might not always be geared towards the typical procreation type activities. What the sub commander feels is like us old farts who're more in love than ever hence I REALLY like this story plot.
Star Trek has always been about concepts & ideas. Look past the first layer of this script and I think you'll find more you can personally relate too than you think.
