Not a star trek captain anyway?

Guess he is going to be different. That bit about sending the nietchines (sp!) to the brig, star trek captain would never do that. I can picture the speal "We can trust you.. i know you etc.. blad de blah." Janeway trusts 7 of 9 against the borg par example.

Crappy acting in the slip stream. He looks almost bored! Hate the hair (sorry everyone) and oh the reference about a greek god is just so corny it is unbelivable.

He got better in the 2nd half talking to engineer guy and the speach to the people on board but apart from that, not great old Hunt i have to say.

Not having seen when 7 of 9 came aboard Voyager I don't know the answer to this. Did Janeway trust her implicitly when they first encountered the Borg after that or was there a pause, a moment when she had to earn the trust first?

Hunt sending the Neitzscheans to the brig was believable to me. I would have if I had been in his shoes. The Neitzscheans and the Commonwealth had been allies for I don't know how many hundreds of years and they have suddenly turned and no one knew the reason until the confrontation with Rhade on the bridge later. That's the main difference I see between taking someone like 7 of 9 aboard and having a bunch of Neitzscheans on your ship. The Borg were never an ally.

Anyway it was real and expected to me mostly because of what happened in the US when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. I have relatives who were sent to the relocation camps during WWII ostentatiously for their own protection, but I think we all know what the real reason was.

Did Rhade know about the attack coming then? If not do you really think you would swap sides if you were him. Wastn't it him who actually suggested deploying tactical weapons to destroy the system?

Listen to his little speech again. He knew that the Neitzscheans were going to revolt against the Commonwealth. He opposed it with some others ... at first. I can't say for sure if he knew the attack was going to start this way ... with his ship being the starting point, but I don't think it would have made any difference in what he did.

I think he was testing Dylan. It's a possibility that he hadn't made up his mind yet, but something made him finally take that step. It may have been his seeing some weakness that he hoped wasn't there and didn't manifest itself until he heard Dylan call for everyone to abandon ship.

Or he could have known what Dylan was up to and wanted to stop him from warning the rest of the High Guard.

Or he just wanted to explain himself to Dylan before they were all killed.

I just don't know.

Cheers,
