SEVEN: If that's true, you won't do this to me. Take me back to my own kind. 
"The Gift" Line-by-Line
- Thread starter LeadHead
- Start date
JANEWAY: You are with your own kind. Humans.
JANEWAY: I'm coming in.
JANEWAY: I don't think you will.
(Janeway enters the cell, staying out of arms reach. She shows Seven the picture from the Personnel File on the PADD.)
JANEWAY: Do you remember her? Her name was Annika Hansen. She was born on stardate 25479 at the Tendara Colony. There's still a lot we don't know about her. Did she have any siblings? Who were her friends? Where did she go to school? What was her favourite color?
(Seven looks at the picture for a while, then slaps it out of Janeway's hand.)

JANEWAY: I can't do that.
JANEWAY: One voice can be stronger than a thousand voices. Your mind is independent now, with it's own unique identity.
JANEWAY: Oh yes it is. I'm just giving you back what was stolen from you. The existence you were denied, the child who never had a chance. That life is yours to live now.
JANEWAY: It's what you are. Don't resist it.
Captain's log, supplemental. Warp drive is still offline and we don't know whether the Borg have detected us. Kes' psychokinetic abilities continue to damage the ship's structural integrity, and as a result our defenses have been compromised.
[Kes' quarters]
KES: Come in, Captain.
KES: Come in, Captain.
KES: I'm sure it was the logical thing to do. I've been thinking about everything that's been going on, and I know what I have to do. It's time for me to leave Voyager.
JANEWAY: Oh, Kes.
