    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
