Seven of Nine and Kathryn Janeway in “Unfinished Business”

Seven of Nine

It is puzzling.

Kathryn Janeway

What's that?

Seven of Nine

You made me into an individual. You encouraged me to stop thinking like a member of the Collective, to cultivate my independence and my humanity. But when I try to assert that independence I am punished.

Kathryn Janeway

Individuality has its limits. Especially on a starship where there's a command structure.

Seven of Nine

I believe that you are punishing me because I do not think the way you do. Because I am not becoming more like you. You claim to respect my individuality, but in fact you are frightened by it.

Kathryn Janeway

As you were.
