Well, crud! After waiting more than a month for an new episode, there's a basketball game on instead of Enterprise. I guess I'll have to wait till saturday to catch it.

It's kinda funny, with all this low-tech, I keep feeling that they have paper-thin armor and their default-config 'phase cannons' are the galactic equivalent of throwing rocks at a tank.

Great episode, though. I really do like the fact that they come across all these aliens and that Starfleet ain't nowhere near the big fish in the pond yet.

I wonder if they're going to be trading/upgrading their gear as time passes. It'd be cool to come back home with a totally modded Enterprise -- something Voyager failed to do.

Those aliens looked like streched out Mars Attacks aliens.

I enjoyed the side story but the main one was a little week.

A-Team in space where the enterprise is not only the barn but the van as well.

The character development is coming along nicely.

I love how they changed their pathetic beam weapon into a wave motion gun. Why don't my SEIV crews ever think to do that?

The only problem I had with the episode was: Why in the world did Archer and the chief engineer and the weapons officer not realize before now that installing the phase cannons just might possibly be a good idea? Helloooooo??? Guess Star Fleet Academy got better over time. I can't imagine the likes of Kirk, Scotty, Jordi, Miles, or Warf letting neat toys like that sit in a cargo bay.

I don't remember them having beam weapons (except for maybe the first episode, they keep trying those darn torpedos), so it looked like a new installation. Somewhere in here it sounds more like a debate as to whether the Enterprise crew has Energy Stream or Energy Pulse weapons (I go with Energy Stream).

Pretty good episode, I like how they struggled to find out what the favorite food of the security officer was. The main plot wasn't too bad..I liked how right after punching through the shields I was jumping up and down yelling "Fire the torpedos! Fire the torpedos NOW!"

(Yes, I am a loser)

Captain Kwok- I thought these were Romulans too, since the Enterprise initially couldn't scan them. And the look of them.

Enterprise? It's a new Star Trek show based in 2150's before the Federation was formed. It's pretty good. It debut in Sept. 2001 in North America, I guess you guys in Europe are unfortunate...
