I'm sorry if this has been asked before but i can't find it with search.

anyways, wasn't the guy who bought T'pol in that Orion slave market ( episode "Borderland") a Tellarite? Wouldn't that make the Tellarites slavers? why are they part of finding the federation if they are slavers?

Are all Arabs terrorists?

Why would one Tellarite owning slaves imply anything about the rest of the species?

Yeah true. I mean i suppose that Tellerite could have owned a freighter that operated far away from his home world and he wanted himself a little play thing when he gets bored. lol

But was he a Tellarite?

Yes, it was a Tellarite. I think that he was just a buyer/seller. He buy`s slaves and then sells them to another.

Bad Tellarite. Wouldn't T'pol be really pissed at the species?

Tuvok8917 · **Fri Mar 04, 2005 5:10 am**

I`m not sure. I think that T'pol would be pissed, but that she won`t do a thing. That would be not logical for a Vulcan.

lionhead · **Fri Mar 04, 2005 6:06 am**

yeah, but she has troubles surpressing her emotions right? I would not be suprised that when she sees a tellarite she will look kind of scared or disgusted and say something about it.

Tuvok8917 · **Fri Mar 04, 2005 6:10 am**

She had troubles because was taking to many emotion pills, or something like that. Later Phlox has forbidden her the pills and now she is not very emotional anymore.

lionhead · **Fri Mar 04, 2005 8:02 am**

Phlox said she wasn't going too be able too surpress all emotions and she has too live with some of them forever. she had been addicted too trellium or something. it damaged her brains forever.

There not "Emotion Pills" It was Terellium D. It sent the crew of the Vulcan ship crazy and when enterprise got hold of some of it to protect itself from the anomalys T'Pol became addicted to it.

I seriously doubt that T'Pol would get "disgusted or say something about it". She is a Vulcan. She knows that Tellarite does not represent the entire species. She would be showing racism if she judged the entire species over it. T'Pol wouldn't do that. She may look down on them, like she used to with Humans, but I dobut she would say something to the Tellarite ambassador.
