dictionary driving half knew looking star talk talking trek
I started by looking everything up in a Star Trek dictionary so I knew what I was talking about, but you can't do that because they talk in circles, and half of it doesn't make sense, so you'll just end up driving yourself more insane.
dream
I've always wanted to do this, so it really is a dream come true.
bother concept effect male member package physical seven sexual
It doesn't bother me that Seven has such an overtly sexual presence, because she has no concept of what effect that physical package would have on some male member of the crew. That's what's fun, her innocence.
believe buy coming god government great somewhere
We haven't done such a great job, so I don't know why God couldn't have started over somewhere else. I don't necessarily believe in aliens coming to the States, and I don't buy into the government cover-up.
developed people
I would defy people to find a more beautifully developed character than Seven of Nine.
entire exception husband marriage pregnant stayed year
My husband and I have had a commuter marriage our entire marriage, with the exception of the one year I was pregnant and stayed home.
huge information love public service though
We love our jobs, but I don't think any of us look at it as though we're doing a huge public service by getting this information out!
It's supposed to be entertainment. It's not supposed to be a documentary.
absolutely learn realised stunt terrified
I've had to learn how to use a gun. I was absolutely terrified when I realised it was not a stunt double, it was actually me doing this.
former interest
They said that Seven was a former Borg who had been human and had been assimilated. She was regaining her humanity. I had no interest in this character.
action drinking entire mugs process shape surreal
This entire process has been a surreal experience. You have action figures, you have the Internet, you have drinking mugs in the shape of your head.
comments direct individual
I am an individual now. You can direct your comments to me.
science seen
I had never seen much of Star Trek, or any other science fiction, before I was cast. But Seven's wonderful.
kids helpful backgrounds
My background has been very helpful for this experience. But everyone was so accommodating because they knew it's not the most comfortable position to be the new kid.
