Yes, we do have a way to stop the Collective’s invasion. The Commander has access to a Borg Sphere with an interdimensional drive, which, under the right conditions, can prevent new rifts from forming.

As good as can be expected during a Borg invasion. What is the status of the Sphere? Is it operational?

Our dear Zefram genuinely enjoys the wonders of 24th-century replication, despite the past horrors of assimilation. His sense of self is surprisingly intact – a case worth studying further.

He's made of sterner stuff, there's no doubt about that – and now so are we. The Borg Sphere has been recovered as much as possible, with all the adjustments required for Data’s Superb Save-The-World Plan.

I appreciate your high opinion of my ideas, Commander Riker. But he is correct, Commander – the Sphere is ready for action, and Lieutenant Commander Worf has located our target in the M2-Parcer cluster.

Dialogue
The M2-Parcer rift bears a new kind of Borg frequency. The rift is larger, potentially uniting several entry points. A battle is brewing, and a fearsome one. You will need all of your weapons there.

The Sphere’s not very tough, so you must make sure that this good old ship, and all of us on it, survive until we kick the warp drive off.

We will do our best. I shall send a message to Doctor Halin and the other Independent captains, and share the coordinates of the M2-Parcer rift. No matter what happens, we must persevere.
