Meantime, my roommates are watching Star Trek: First Contact. Why does Data want to have sex with the Borg chick. That doesn't seem remotely psychologically plausible.

I couldn't explain that even when the movie came out. It was bad science fiction and bad character writing. I didn't even like the concept of a Borg Queen—I much preferred them a pure hive mind, with specialization without hierarchy. Unlike Generations, which at least contains the scene of Data enthusiastically hating the taste of synthehol, I may not have any fond memories of First Contact at all.
