Enterprise 10-09-02

[Umbran]

Yup, sorry, that was the point I was getting around to making. I was wondering how they would justify (in their episode writing bibles), that despite there supposedly being a destroyed time travel facility, the electronic library that Daniels expected to find was full of regular old books.

Well, as I recall it, there's no conflict. You see, there wasn't a "destroyed time travel facility". Daniels remarks not that his machines were destroyed, but that they weren't there. While they were in the right place, the facility had ceased to have been (gotta love English verb tenses and time travel )

Yes, there's a paradox in there - live with it

 

[Crothian]

i'll betcha they will, since the 'temporal cold war' has been Enterprise's meta-plotline so far (i just keeps going, and going, and going...)

Oh, they'll continue with the cold war crap, but I doubt they'll cover the book angle.

Umb - Ah, that would be different than I remember it (and I am not disagreeing, just saying I didn't remember how he phrased his explanation).

 

[ColonelHardisson]

I believe Umbran is correct. The library was all books, which was far different from what the time-travel guy remembered - it should've all been computerized. So, basically, the gist of it was that Archer being taken out of the time-line resulted, somehow, in there being no time travel facility. Somewhere along the way Earth got pasted before they advanced that far.

Skiddish boards didn't advance the bump...

This was one of my more favorite episodes from this season. It gave Malcolm a moment in the spotlight with his fear of drowning....

That was last weeks rerun, and I agree that it was very good-

Tonight's rerun is the "unmanned" space/repair station directed by Roxann Dawson (Voyager's B'elanna Torres) who also does the voice over work for the repair station's computer...

Well, the episode aired before I joined the boards and started picking the series apart, so I wasn't in the original discussion. Though actually I don't really have anything to add. It was pretty much standard body-snatching creepiness to me.
