Star Trek: Voyager 4x6 The Raven

She used the Vulcan nerve pinch on the Vulcan.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

When Tuvok says you are a part of the crew, you know you’ve arrived!

I explained to my daughters that Seven was abducted by the Borg as a child. She is learning all this new human stuff. She is very vulnerable and in pain. She has been traumatized and abused.

My eldest said, “So her shields are figurative and literal.”

“And lay in a course for B’omar space.”

That’s WJTKWD. Way to go, Janeway!!

That’s one smart cookie!

I like how Janeway even as the captain and leader of the whole ship still figures things out, because she’s great.

Tuvok is so lovely, “you do not need to be alone.”

That Vulcan compassion is just so logical.

“What’s in there?”

Only what you take with you. Your weapons. You will not need them.

Shut up, Yoda.

Brannon Braga had a flash of inspiration to use a specific movie as an influence on the episode. “I was struck by the Citizen Kane image of ‘Rosebud,’” Braga related. “At the end of this strange journey of rebellion she makes a shocking discovery and faces her past in a Citizen Kane-type way. The raven image actually turns out to be the name of the ship when she rubs off the dust.”

Jeri Ryan did a great job in this episode - you’re totally right about how her voice changes.

I don’t have time for this. Target their weapons array.

Go, Janeway!

Nite, Cas. Great to be back frakkin Star Trek again.

Thanks for joining me, 'talos! Gnight!
