Notes
- Running fired torpedo count: 66. This contradicts the hard limit set in “The Cloud” of 38.
- The only credited episode in any incarnation of Star Trek by Carleton Eastlake.
- The events of this episode are recalled in the Star Trek Picard episode “Stardust City Rag“, which also features a cameo by Icheb, also played there by Manu Intiraymi.
- The final appearances of the BorgKids Mezoti, Azan, & Rebi.
- Several of the names of people who died as crew members of Voyager are actually names from the TV show “The West Wing“.
- Tom Paris is wearing a wedding ring in this episode, but he and B’Elanna don’t get married until the next episode.
- Chakotay says “It’s not every day we go looking for the Borg” here, but they did exactly that in the last episode. :)
- B’Elanna’s thoughts on her afterlife seem to conflict with what we learned in the episode “Barge of the Dead“.

Turns out it's about some of Seven's Borg tech malfunctioning and it's a race against time to get her a new one before she dies.

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Voyager Ep 148 - Imperfection - 11 Oct 2000 2/2 That's the extent of the story. Not deep, but an enjoyable ride. Lots of time spent on Seven's character - again. IMO, at the expense of others (like Chakotay who hasn't had any big character development in forever).
