[QUOTE="Orius, post: 2212511, member: 8863"] It's kind of in keeping with the original "Mirror, Mirror". The lieutenant in the mirror universe who was Kirk's lover and who killed his opponents behind his back was just another minor crew member in the normal Trek universe. I sort of liked the "Empress Sato" bit at the end. And when they were hunting down the Gorn I knew Reed was going to get hurt. Why? Three reasons: 1. He's a security officer. 2. He separated from the captain. 3. He was wearing a red shirt. :] I'm surprised Phlox gave him a 50% chance of survival. Everyone knows red shirting is invariably fatal. The first part ws more fun than this episode, but it gives us some insight into the development of the mirror universe. It made sense for mirror Archer to die at the end; given his xenophobia he couldn't be Emperor because that would likely rule out mirror Spock. Besides, mirror Archer was a chump. I wouldn't be surprised if mirror Hoshi erased that database too. [/QUOTE]
