Heh, interesting episode, to say the least.

But Tripp should've been demoted for that.

7.5/10

My Official Review: 9.5/10

This episode was by far one of the best I�ve seen to date on Enterprise. I give it two thumbs and two big toes up. The script was superb; the sideshow with Malcolm Reed and the Vissian tactical officer was entertaining to say the least. The overall story combined a delicate balance of humor and solemnity which makes the episode stand out in this series. I must applaud Becky Wahlstrom, the female cogenitor, excellent acting on her part made this episode believable.

I can honestly say that this is the first time I can honestly say that I was looking at Captain Archer. His scenes with the Vissian captain were excellent. His genuine curiosity, and human spirit showed through to the audience in a way that I personally connected with him as a captain. In his dealings with Trip, this was the most decisive I�ve ever seen Captain Archer, and I can say without a doubt that those scenes were a credit to his character. Scott Bakula truly seems that he�s finally coming into his own and I congratulate him on a job well done.

Conner Trinneer and Dominic Keating play their characters, �Trip� Tucker and Malcolm Reed, exceptionally well. It is my opinion that these two share the playful teenager role of the ship. However, whereas Reed is a by the book officer and would not have interfered, Tucker is much more unpredictable and shows a genuine interest in the feelings of others. I�m somewhat curious how the events of this episode will impact Conner Trinneer�s depiction of Trip Tucker in future episodes. I also must also say that I enjoyed the scenes between Reed and the Vissian tactical officer. Those scenes helped breakup the general serious mood of the episode and added a bit of humor. My only displeasure with this episode is that I felt Tucker should have been punished, my reason for giving the episode a 9.5. I think a punishment would have given me a greater sense of closure to the episode rather than just ushering Tucker out of the Captain�s readyroom.

Jolene Blalock, Anthony Montgomery, and Linda Park all played minor roles as T�Pol, Travis Mayweather, and Hoshi Sato respectively. Actually I think that Travis wasn�t on screen for more than ten seconds, nor was Sato. Even without their presence, the episode was superb. Jolene Blalock played an excellent T�Pol. As a Vulcan, her character is capable of adding subtle bits of humor here and there as well as contributing to the solidarity of a few scenes. Overall, I think that Jolene Blalock was a really nice pick as T�Pol and I think that as the series continues, her portrayal of T�Pol will only improve.

^yeah, I would have to generally agree there and I give it a generous 10/10. Lol, who started the X/10 ratings anyway

Now, I have no idea if next weeks is going to be really good or really .....

[Lindley]

It was indeed quite good! A surprise, actually. The promos did do it justice.

This is the sort of quality that ENT should be putting out every week.

I liked that episode. I couldn't believe that she committed suicide. I agree that more episodes should be like that. I think that they should have more 2 part episodes.

[eclipse8472]

great ep, the suicide at the end was very suprising didn't expect that at all, great story overall 9/10

I think more 2 part epz are need also, like in the case of judgement it was just die-ing to be a 2 parter.

Indeed. Shows nowadays must use real drastic or hard hitting subjects to get the audience's attention, have you noticed that?
