Unless Trip made note of the date in that time, it's "Supplemental". <br /><br />-Trip's out testing nav and sensor upgrades. Funny, with 80-something crew aboard, they only send him? Trip says that with upgrades like the ones they're testing, pretty soon they won't need Travis anymore. *snicker* And in a fit of plot convenience, he didn't bring a UT or phase pistol along, even though he's ALONE and FAR AWAY from the ship in UNEXPLORED SPACE. <br /><br />-The baddies this week are the Arkonians, who fly these really neat ships combining vertical and horizontal sections. The Arkonians are nutty folks who didn't really like the Vulcans when they made first contact 100 years ago. About the same time as with Earth?<br /><br />-Among their nifty abilities, Arkonians can't eat ration bars. They do however have a nifty spray they spit from their mouths that can heal a wound completely. Phlox would be delighted to have an Arkonian vomit on him.<br /><br />-For the first time, we get to see whatever T'Pol looks at in that funky viewer at the science station! As expected, it's a bunch of colourful jibberish - but why must that jibberish be stuck in an extendo-box? Why not on the really epxensive plasma screens they have so many of?<br /><br />-Luckily, the moon's atmosphere has lots of selenium isotopes that prevent the shuttle(s) from flying, so the pod will have to be abandonned (two now, isn't it?). <br /><br />-Also, due to his dehydrated condition the transporter can't beam the Arkonian, so Trip elects to stay down there with him. Okay, fine; but why can't Enterprise beam down some fancy cooling gear, water, or that stuff the Arkonian needs to survive, hm?<br /><br />Mark <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Mark Nguyen</b> <br /><small>Member # 469</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,12,9,11,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 12, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">09:11 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> The lack of responses seems to indicate that most people found this a pretty tech-light episode...<br /><br />C'mon, give us some fleet battles!<br /><br />Mark <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Harry</b> <br /><small>Member # 265</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,12,13,15,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 12, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">01:15 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> We could discuss the interstellar success of the cricket. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>The Mighty Monkey of Mim</b> <br /><small>Member # 646</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,12,15,3,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 12, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">03:03 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I actually liked this episode quite a lot, despite the obvious similarity to <i>Enemy Mine</i>.

It's good to mix high and low tech episodes, that way you don't get too tired of fancy gadgets and stuff.<br /><br />I'm not sure about Shuttlepod 01 being abandoned or not. I suppose they might have had the Arkonians go back down and retrieve it for them, though I don't quite know how receptive the Arkonians would have been to that...<br /><br />-<b>MMoM</b> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>J</b> <br /><small>Member # 608</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,12,20,48,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 12, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">08:48 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I thought itw was tech heavy without being tech heavy.
