Archer can’t seem to get away with much these days without incurring the wrath of the warring factions of the illusive Temporal Cold War, and as it turns out, recovering a dead body from a 31st century time traveling ship is just the type of thing to set the Suliban (and now Tholians!) on his…
Archer gets himself pulled into negotiations between the Andorians and Vulcans, a task everyone but the plucky captain himself seems to think is a lost cause. We start to see some tenants of the Federation shine through in this episode. Very exciting!
In this continuation of the arc started with T’Pol’s assault back in episode 17 of season 1, Fusion, we see just how deeply the animosity and disdain runs within the Vulcan culture for those thought to practice mind-melds.
Trip has a not so friendly encounter with an Arkonian pilot named Zho’Kaan while testing the shuttlepod’s autopilot, leading to a short camping trip on the surface of a moon. Not so bad on its own, but turns out it can get to well over 250 degrees in the daylight and both ships were damaged…
The Catwalk ended up being a pretty good Enterprise episode! The neutronic storm gives us some stellar phenomena for the crew to interact with, which is always fun. And there were a number of “Oh crap” moments that were very satisfying. We ended up a bit disappointed and perhaps confused that the writers established the…
Episode 038 - Enterprise 2x11 - Precious Cargo During a daring escape, Trip once again winds up in some adult situations when he's forced into close-quarters with a kidnapped Kriosian monarch.

Episode 037 - Enterprise 2x10 - Vanishing Point After an emergency situation forces Hoshi to use the transporter for the first time she begins to feel something is a little off. Turns out she's phasing--wait, no she's dying--wait, it's all Hoshi's dream? At least we learn something about Hoshi and she becomes a stronger character…
Episode 036 - Enterprise 2x09 - Singularity This episode feels much like an homage to the Original Series and The Next Generation episodes, Naked Time and Naked Now. We get to see a few characters act out of character, and some perhaps a little too in character? Either way it ended up being a lot…
Episode 035 - Enterprise 2x08 - The Communicator While investigating a pre-warp civilization Reed loses his communicator. He and Archer return to the surface to search for it before it can disrupt the natural progression of this society, but are instead captured and interrogated as potential spies. Our ratings for this episode were all over…
Episode 034 - Enterprise 2x07 - The Seventh T'Pol is contacted by the Vulcan High Command concerning unfinished business with the Ministry of Security. Archer gets a bit shitty with her about it, but eventually agrees to help her catch the rogue Vulcan agent, Menos. Our ratings for this episode were all over the…
