I’m watching S7E20 right now and the entire scene before the Defiant undocked from DS9 had that cinematic vibe you only get from a bonafide Hollywood movie.

    i think the phage was already cured, in the think tank episode, they said they found a cure for them. but it was off-screen of course. Also exploring gamma quadrant? and the rest of delta quadrant.

      Good memory.

      SEVEN: An artificial intelligence.

      KURROS: The mind of mathematician and the soul of an artist. I’m afraid he’d much rather be modelling a fractal sculpture than analysing the data of our latest astronomical scan. And now you have met us all. A small group of minds, but we have helped hundreds of clients. We turned the tide in the war between the Bara Plenum and the Motali Empire. Re-ignited the red giants of the Zai Cluster. Just recently, we found a cure for the Vidiian phage.

      JANEWAY: The Vidiians?

      KURROS: You would hardly recognise them now. Just last month we helped retrieve a Lyridian child’s runaway pet. A subspace mesomorph, I might add. We had to invent a whole new scanning technology just to find it.

      JANEWAY: And what did you ask for as compensation?

      KURROS: One of their transgalactic star charts. The best map of the known galaxy ever created.

      Feels a bit cheap, considering how much time was spent with them earlier in the show.

      At any rate, there’s always more to be explored.

        I actually liked it. It’s kind of like beating up Worf. They used a former enemy whose power we are aware of, and showed how trivial they are before Art Vandaley
