- TriviaThis episode was to have premiered on BBC Two in the United Kingdom at 6 o'clock on September 11, 2001. However, the broadcast was cancelled due to the BBC's in-depth coverage of the September 11th attacks. It was never broadcast on BBC Two as the following episode Spirit Folk (2000) was shown on September 18, 2001 as was originally intended.
- GoofsAt about 31:46, Janeway asks Tuvok how long it has been since he lost contact with Kim, and Tuvok replies "Four or five minutes." It has been long established in the series that, as a Vulcan, Tuvok speaks precisely - a comment that vague is completely out of character for him.

Featured review
YES, WE ARE BORG
The evolution of Star Trek can be envisioned in this episode of imperfect drones being rejected by the collective but salvaged by the Voyager crew. This imperfection also marks the history of when Voyager figures out that they have the technology of a virus that can destroy a cube.
Captain Janeway struggles with using the deadly force of the virus on Borg children who survived to run the damaged cube cube and ultimately return to the collective. The unpredictable Borg survivors erratic behavior cause a tense standoff with Voyager. Only 7 of 9 is equipped and knowledgeable enough to save both entities.
This is one of the better story arcs of ST:VOYAGER. The BORG deserved its own spinoff series, starring Jerry Ryan as 7 of 9. Notwithstanding, this episode ("Collective ") was Star Trek at its finest!
