Chakotay: They lied. The Borg Started the war with Species 8472. Janeway walks away silently Chakotay: There's only one Borg left, we should disable her and get back to the Delta Quadrant. We might be able to duplicate the Deflector Protocols they used to open a singularity.
Janeway: No. I won't be caught tinkering with the deflector when those aliens attack. There's no other way out of this, Chakotay. It's too late for opinions, it's too late for discussion. It's time to make the call, and I'm making it. We fight the aliens in full co-operation with the Borg.
Chakotay: I was linked to a Collective once, remember? I had a Neuro Transceiver embedded in my spine! I know who we're dealing with! We've got to get rid of that last Borg and take our chances alone!
Janeway: It won't work. Janeway pauses Janeway: This isn't working, either. There are two wars going on. The one out there, and the one in here, and we're losing both of them.
CHAKOTAY: Our "conflicted" nature... our individuality. Seven of Nine said that we lack the cohesion of a Collective mind... that one day, it would divide us... and destroy us. And here we are, proving her point.
Janeway: I'll tell you when we lost control of this situation... when we made our mistake. It was the moment we turned away from each other. We don't have to stop being individuals to get through this, we just have to stop fighting each other.
Janeway: I've relieved Mister Chakotay of his duties and confined him to the Brig. I'm back in command.
JANEWAY: Completely. Tuvok, give her the nanoprobes. Work with her. Build as many warheads as you can and start modifying our weapons systems. I suggest we think about enhancing our defences, as well. If we're going to fight this battle, I intend to win it.
Janeway: Good. This is the plan. We engage the enemy here, in their space. We show them what they're up against. If they have any sense of self-preservation, they'll back off, pull their ships out of the Delta Quadrant. That's provided the weapons are effective. If they aren't, it's been nice working with you. We've got to get this ship armed and ready in under two hours. We're going to war.
Janeway: All Hands, This is The Captain. Ready your Stations. Seal all Emergency Bulkheads and prepare to engage the enemy. Standby for orders.
Janeway: Battle stations. They're already at Red Alert, do they really need to go to Battle Stations?
