[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] I can understand T'Pol's remarks and behaviors perfectly. The Vulcans have for several decades been more or less repressing the humans. I hate to jump in and claim racism because that's emotional, but she and many of the Vulcans see humans as being inferior. Logically, this is the case because we're possessed of a "volatile temper" and "primal urges." In their eyes, humans are completely illogical and irrational. Her personal opinions may also derive from her experiences stationed as an ambassador's aide on Earth. It's fairly obvious from Archer, Tucker, and other humans that they don't like the Vulcans. She's probably gotten a good deal of grief from these angry humans and that has reinforced her prior opinions. Tucker's pregnant, pregnancy needs intercourse, humans are governed by primal urges, sex is a primal urge (yeah, baby!), therefore it's reasonable for her to assume that Tucker did the coaxial slipstream with the alien woman. She was definitely wrong, but I can see how the chain of thought went. She'll definitely be warming up (as far as Vulcans can, I guess). We already saw a brief bit of that at the end of "Broken Bow." We also saw part of her going out to trust Archer (a human) at the ending of "Strange New World." Hell, she and Tucker shared what I thought was a very fleeting moment of understanding. One of the parts to Enterprise that I'm most excited about is seeing the friendship among Archer, T'Pol, and Tucker development slowly and fully. If the writers screw that up, though, I'll be really ticked off. So far, it looks like its stagnating a bit, but there are plenty of episodes left to watch this. I really felt cheated by Tom and Neelix patching things up after one episode, and Janeway and Chakotay rarely having those conflicts in Voyager. [/QB][/QUOTE]
