[QUOTE="Tom Cashel, post: 899949, member: 321"] [b]SPOILERS[/b] I thought this episode was terrible. For all the talk about a "new direction," they managed to produce the same tired old Star Trek/Enterprise plot. How many times have we seen the "getting ready for a big mission" show? Too many to count. How many times have Klingons been after the captain of the Enterprise? About three times in this season of Enterprise alone (and countless times in other shows). How many times do we have to see T'pol agonize over whether to defy the Vulcan High Command? It took 45 minutes to leave spacedock! What th--?! I would have forgiven all of this if the episode was 2 hrs. long. Take one hour to show us all that sameness, and then take us in a new direction already! Although I was hopeful when the Suliban told Archer to "stand closer so you can see more clearly," there was no resolution to the Temporal Cold War plotline. And by ending the season where they did, there's no indication of a "new direction" except a malevolent probe and the name of a new species. Yawn. With a second hour, they could have shown viewers and Paramount execs alike what there is to look forward to. They could have established total weirdness in the Expanse, they could have had Archer bust out his secret stash of future knowledge, they could have given us a reason--ANY reason--to tune in for another season. I don't give two bits about the timeline, or Trek continuity...I want to see something new! As it is, I'll be very surprised if the show doesn't get cancelled. Which is sad...they could have ended it all on a much better note. Instead, the Enterprise will likely sail off into the great unknown...never having had much of an effect on the show's "future," or the Trek mythology. What a waste. [/QUOTE]
