Hello, friends! Two prediction posts in a row, THIS RARELY HAPPENS. But I shall venture unprepared into this next season of Voyager, and I am excited for you to join me. ONWARDS.
Okay, here we go:
- Janeway will make a successful deal with the Borg. EVERYTHING HURTS.
- But it will not get them entirely through Borg space. It did, and then IT DIDN’T.
- Working with the Borg, the Voyager crew will find a way to use the nanobots against Species 8472. I THOUGHT I WAS SMART.
- But they will not destroy the species or stop them. They’ll reappear again in this season. I THOUGHT I HAD THIS FIGURED OUT.
- Harry will be cured, and I say this mostly because I will be FURIOUS if they kill him off. Thankfully, I was right.
- Tom and B’Elanna will start dating. Two in a row!
- This season will feature the ramifications of Chakotay disagreeing with Janeway, even if it’s only one episode. And it did, right at the beginning!
- Tuvok will mind meld with someone else. Boo.
- Neelix will try to date at least once this season. He was severely underused this season, wasn’t he?
- Kes will talk about leaving Neelix at least once this season. WHAT THE FUCK. Well, at least I’m right?
- MORE OF JANEWAY TALKING TO DA VINCI. YES. Y E S.
- I also think there will be an update on all the holonovels that people were writing due to “Worst Case Scenario.â€Â Seriously, where is this plot? GIVE IT TO ME.
- At some point, the Voyager will have its journey home shortened. Thanks, Kes. 🙁
- Voyager will get out of Borg space by the end of the season. Much earlier than that!
- Only to meet a new antagonist in the season 4 finale! Technically, this is right, too! STILL UNPREPARED, THOUGH.
Let me continue to be unprepared.
- Most of this season will track Seven of Nine’s struggle with becoming more human.
- Voyager will also get another big boost home.
- And it will come from SLIPSTREAM TECHNOLOGY.
- At some point, B’Elanna and Tom will take a break.
- But it won’t last the season.
- Harry gets a promotion because HE DESERVES IT.
- Tuvok somehow becomes human at one point. (I don’t know, I’M JUST THINKING OF RIDICULOUS PREMISES OKAY.)
- Janeway visits da Vinci once.
- HOLONOVEL UPDATE, PLEASE.
- A new antagonist arrives at some point, and for this to count, they have to appear in more than one episode.
- More of Species 8472.
- MORE BORG.
- At some point, Voyager will find another way to contact home.
- At the end of the season, the crew will get news that they are closing in on the Alpha Quadrant.
- ONLY TO HAVE SOMETHING HAPPEN TO SEND THEM FURTHER AWAY FROM IT.
Okay, admittedly, I don’t have much to go on, but at least I’ll be surprised, right?
