326: '''Scorpion, Part I'''  ''[[1997]] [[May 21]]''
(First watched 2007-01-10)  Busy episode.  As only part 1 it's hard to come to much judgment yet.  I will take this as a good opportunity to bitch at Janeway's flip-floppiness and the way she tosses aside any pretense of noninterference when it's inconvenient for her.  A season ago or so it was proposed to ally with some Kazon to make their trip through Kazon space more survivable.  That didn't go so well, and she concluded it was a bad idea in the first place.  But now SHE'S the one all gung-ho about allying with the frickin' BORG for the same reason?  Playing a part in the outcome of a war between the Borg and Species 8472 could have vast consequences for the galaxy, but she's deciding it based on the fact that she doesn't want to turn around and disappoint her crew?
Their plan to hide the special data from the Borg seems flawed, though.  Even if they hide away the Doctor's specific work, if the Borg assimilated Voyager they should easily enough be able to figure out how Voyager FOUND their solution and know how to activate (even in a way assimilate?) an EMH to get working on it.
Species 8472 is pretty cool, though.  I enjoy that though they're a Borg opponent, they're designed with certain similarities.  As the Borg assimilate a person or ship, 8472 slowly eats and replaces a person or ship.  The Borg are a mix of technology and biology with their ships looking more technological, while 8472's ships appear almost fully biological.
