[edit] Memorable quotes
- "...Retcon, right"
"Yeah, well I also considered calling it Continuity reboot or Purist poison but I thought those two were a bit extreme" - — Rand explains her memory altering syrum. This is an odd reference to some fan concerns that the eleventh Star Trek film will be a Continuity reboot.
- "We are the Borg, lower your shields and surrender your Rand"
- — The Borg contact Pioneer
- "I am the beginning, the end… I am she who is many and many who are one. I am the Borg."
- — A mysterious woman adresses Rand
- "As the years passed, I was killed so many times by your meddling Starfleet friends… Data… Janeway… Seven… eventually the Royal Protocol activated within this body and it became my next vessel. I assimilated all of its memories as my own mind filled its consciousness, your mother was an interesting individual… she is part of me… I cannot help but… feel compassion towards you."
- — The Borg Queen forces Rand to face a deep emotional scar.
[edit] Log entries
- "Medical log, stardate 65190.5. Ensign Hal’s condition is improving, and Crewman Agyeman’s leg is completely healed. The Retcon experiments are going well… and, yep that’s it.
