BORG  ASSIMILATED




'With the help of Kes, the link to the Borg hive-mind is severed. Or is it? Kes (Sekmet) dissolves into pure consciousness before she can reveal the crew's real condition. 'You are no better than the Borg' declares 7 of 9 astutely. Captain Janeway (Way of the Jain), rather than destroying 7 of 9, seeks, Borg-like, to assimilate her: 'You must comply', she commands (to become 'human'). Janeway understands that 7 is the threshold number necessary for the acquisition of self-awareness. 7 of 9 is thus initiated.
She is transformed into a kind of austere, sexualized, pleasure unit in the service of this 'meta-Borg' entity - the 'Starship', her favoured colour - red. Satisfied that the new hive-mind nexus has been established, Janeway releases her as a fresh recruit. 7 of 9 is now, properly, 9 of 9 - three squared - the cube divinized - signifying human spirit yoked to A.I. (the 'logos').
The assimilation is now more complete, the camouflage more convincing, the hive-mind only strengthened. The crew, however, remain lost, wandering forever through D'aath - the realm of disembodied, disconnected spirits. Crippled by their dependence on technology, blind to their true natures, they are, effetively, no longer living beings.
Only Q (source), now, can save them.'

ADDENDUM :
Jennifer Lien, who played “Kes” the Ocampa medical assistant in the first three seasons of “Star Trek: Voyager” was arrested on September 3 for indecent exposure.

Lien, who recently turned 41, was arrested at her home in Harriman, Tennessee on September 3. According to deputies, Lien had an active warrant in Roane County on two counts of exposing herself to a child under the age of 13.

In a strange twist to an already unsettling story, while delivering a Detainer Summons, Lien allegedly yelled to the deputies to come in after they arrived at her residence. Deputies said Lien was on a couch only covered by a blanket. When they told her about the warrant, Lien is said to have told the deputies that they needed to leave her alone. After repeatedly asking her to put on clothes, Lien is said to have them she would have all of them shot and killed, according to the police report.

With a bond set at $2,500, she is currently at the Roane County Detention Facility.

Lien’s criminal history includes aggravated assault, resisting arrest, evading arrest and reckless endangerment in April. She is scheduled to appear in court on December 7.
