SPOILER: upcoming ENT episodes for season 4

[sunrisetrekkie]

We also caught up with Brannon Braga and got him to talk about the first story arc of the season, the followup to the cliffhanger of "Zero Hour" starting with "Storm Front" (which is in production right now). It's been rumored that this "Nazi story" will wrap up the Temporal Cold War throughline. Is that true?

"Our intention is to resolve the Temporal Cold War once and for all," Braga replied. "It lingered for three seasons, and we would like to finish it off in grandiose fashion, and move on to new territory. So, with these episodes, it will be the last of Daniels, and the last of all of those elements." We will see Silik and the Suliban once again during the Nazi story, but Braga added that "most likely" it'll be the last time. "It's hard to say for sure, because we're so early in the season, but our intention is to be done with it."

Will the identity of "Future Guy," Silik's shadowy boss, ever be revealed? "Well, we've been debating that for quite some time, and I'll leave that question open. We haven't decided yet. We have some ideas about him — or her — or it. But we haven't settled on any one identity yet. It's still a question mark. The Temporal Cold War may resolve without Future Guy's identity being revealed."

According to Rick Berman in an interview for the upcoming issue of Star Trek Communicator, the fourth season will largely go back to the stand-alone episode format of Seasons 1 and 2, though there will be several "mini-arc" stories consisting of two or three episodes. Also in that interview, Berman mentions that William Shatner could return to the Star Trek fold this season. "We're hopefully going to have some discussions with our dear friend, Mr. Shatner, and perhaps come up with a small arc that will involve him," Berman said. Such discussions will be contingent on his schedule for Boston Legal, the new series Shatner is starring in this fall.

Something else to look forward to this year is a guest spot on Enterprise for Brent Spiner. Presumably Spiner will appear in a three-episode arc fairly early in the season as an ancestor of Dr. Noonien Soong, Data's inventor. Robert Picardo mentioned this in his Wednesday chat with STARTREK.COM.

It remains to be seen whether an appearance by Shatner would employ the same concept, i.e., he would play an ancestor of Jim Kirk. As the season unfolds, it should all — to use camera vernacular — come into focus.

Good! End this rubbish and move onto the exploration and one day formation of the Federation! They better reveal shadow guy too!

I can't wait to see if they reveal the shadow bloke. I know who I'd like it to be.
