Although Chakotay strongly objects to the unpredictable collaboration, Janeway and Tuvok transport, with great caution, to the Borg Cube. When a drone attempts to temporarily assimilate Janeway by connecting a neuro-transreceiver to her, the alarmed Captain convinces them to instead choose a representative to communicate verbally with her.
Soon, a vaguely human Borg emerges to speak for the Collective. Designated Seven of Nine, she helps them prepare to engage the enemy -- but when she boards the U.S.S. Voyager, the entire crew is on edge. Meanwhile, the Doctor determines that Species 8472 is accessing Kes' memory.
Neelix is preparing a shipboard feast on the exe of Prixin, the Talaxian celebration of family, when he is asked by Chakotay to join him and Paris on a shuttle mission. Neelix is all too glad to help, but the assignment proves to be fatal for him. Upon the shuttle's return to the U.S.S. Voyager, Seven of Nine, citing Neelix's diverse functions within the crew, applies Borg technology to reactivate him. Alive and shaken by his death, Neelix questions his assumptions about life -- and the promised afterlife -- as the Prixin festivities commence.
