      Easily my favorite episode. The visual and written humor lays out both how insane the Borg challenge is while simultaneously illustrating Boimler’s Kirk-level talent for defeating impossible odds. Scoring 100% seems to require no less than:

      • Transport onto a Borg cube armed with nothing but a phaser
      • Teach the Borg queen empathy
      • Defeat the Borg queen at chess
      • Capture five Borg prisoners
      • Rescue ten Borg babies
      • Set the cube for self destruct
      • Establish subspace comms to schedule rendezvous with Starfleet
      • Steal an escape pod and escape the doomed cube
