In "Equinox Part 2" Janeway, stripped of vital defences by the treacherous crew of the Equinox and left to face the attack of murderous aliens, embarks on her own personal mission of revenge. This single-minded destructive path sets Janeway against her own crew. In "Survival Instinct", while the crew are enjoying shore leave, Voyager is visited by three mysterious strangers who ambush Seven of Nine in her quarters. When the identity of the strangers is revealed, a dark secret from Seven's Borg past begins to surface.
