    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      In a 2002 TV Guide Magazine commemorating the 35th anniversary of Star Trek (1966), I, Borg ranked 5th among the greatest episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987).
    • Goofs
      In the scene in which Geordi names 3rd of 5 "Hugh", 3rd of 5 asks, "Do I have a name?" Rather than, "Do we have a name?"
    • Quotes
      • Third of Five: We are Borg.
      • Guinan: Aren't you gonna tell me you have to assimilate me?
      • Third of Five: You wish to be assimilated?
      • Guinan: No, but that's what you... things do, isn't it?
      • [the Borg nods]
      • Guinan: Resistance is futile?
      • Third of Five: Resistance is futile.
      • Guinan: It isn't. My people resisted when the Borg came, to assimilate us. Some of us survived.
      • Third of Five: Resistance... is not futile?
      • Guinan: No. But thanks to you, there are very few of us left. We're scattered throughout the galaxy. We don't even have a home anymore.
      • Third of Five: What you are saying... is that you are lonely.
      • Guinan: What?
      • Third of Five: You have no others. You have no home. We... are also lonely.
