karimw786 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I don't know what you guys are complaining about... I thought it was a pretty good episode. Here's what I liked about it (these have already been mentioned): 1. The slave girls were pretty cool. ;) 2. Finding out that the men were the slaves was interesting. 3. T'Pol kissed Trip and told a joke all in one episode. On a scale of 1 to 10, i'd give it a hearty 7.5 or 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a scale of 1 to 10, i'd give it a hearty 7.5 or 8. i must wholeheartedly agree...i enjoyed the ep i thought it was pretty cool and i am embarrassed that so many ppl here of all places want to whine and bitch about what a bad show it was!!! yes manny wrote it!! and it is attitudes like "well it wasnt that good" and "i thought it didnt have continuity to everything else" that have killed off the show!!! manny is a great writer and he is (was) trying to provide us with an entertaining show that is done in the trek tradition!!! continuity???? ppprrrrrbbbbtttttt!!!!!! you want continuity?? how many times did kirk mention archer?? IT'S A STORY!!!!! sci-fi means science FICTION!!!!! if more ppl would just enjoy the show for what it is instead of nit-picking it and criticizing evertything about it MAYBE we would have had a 5th 6th or even a 7th season to look foward to!!!! dangitt ive worked up i migrane now...see what you whiners have done!!! i hope you are happy now......rrrrrrrrrr....

GeneralLee Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 After werecow's above comments, I was hesitent to even add my own..... :p I thought this episode was soooo bad.... I had to watch it twice :p Overall, I thought it was very entertaining, and a pretty decent episode. I thought the scene where Doctor Phlox faints in sickbay, was really hysterical. Looking forward to the next episode, and in a few weeks, the series finale.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonHelton Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Did anyone catch the insanely jealous female in engineering who literally grabed the head of her male partner & twisted it back to his work? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomski Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 When I watched this episode I kept wondering why the actresses they used for the Orion slave girls were so plain looking , I mean the one other time we saw an Orion female in this series she actually looked almost too hot for a family show , then as the plot progressed I started thinking that they used the average looking girls to highlight the point that the men were not reacting to how the girls looked so much as they were reacting to the pheromones that they put out . Still all in all I would have prefered hotter looking chicks . :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paniq Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I liked the episode, despite the weak parts - they find about the pheromones and put them in a glass cage but it still seeps out. Some good lines though "I see I'm not the only woman with control over you" :D And later with Trip, being immune, saying I'm not the one. Seeing that T'Pol post-druggy is still emotional :D My rating 4.5 / 10 good in parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oma Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 The part I don't like is that the feromones just happens to have the same effect on human males as if they were orion. And yes, letting a man guard the babes was dumb! 5 / 10 ( the augments-arc as a reference for 10 / 10) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vektram Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 There's a ship. It's on an intercept course. These two lines by Reed at the beginning left me lost for words. Surely they could have stuck in some flamboyant stuff like "Captian, a ship is approching us!" and "It's on an intercept course, awaiting your orders Captain." The rest of the episode was bad as well, nowhere near the standard of the earlier ones in the 4th season. I don't agree with some people about T'Pol, she was on drugs for a while and she had been in immersion in a human culture for a while so she's obviously going to fall prey to our ways. She kissed Trip because she loves him, when they... in the second season I think it was she said she was "exploring human sexuality" to Trip afterwards. The kiss has shown that she was just making an excuse to make her actions seem logical. She's a very young Vulcan and still quite impressionable but that doesn't make her terrible. Finding out that the Orion men were slaves was interesting but surely doesn't mean that the whole episode is good. Also why would Captain Archer go aboard the Orion ship in the first place? It was a stupid move to make and one that the script-writers had obviously put there just so that they sould get the non-slave-girls on. Why would Captain Archer accpet the girls anyway? He's a starfleet officer and I doubt they would've had that much power over him that early on. People's main reasons for liking this episode seem to be the Orion girls and the Trip/T'Pol kiss. Whoop-dee-doo. Notice how Captian Archer said he'd assign them some clothes, but never did? An obvious ploy to get people focusing on thier bodies and not the content. However, I can handle Vulcan-Makeout scenes any day ;) There were some good moments but it was a terrible episode in my opinion and not worthy of the last few in season 4. Yuck. :mad: There, I shall endevour to do more analyses of future episodes. Why is that we know Picard's favourite Tea, or his favourite authors, or that he likes to ride horses..... but I barely know what what Archer likes to do? Archer likes Water Polo and Rock-Climbing.

sirdick Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I just watched this episode and thought it was fantastic! Sometimes it's nice to get away from weighty storylines and just have a laugh. It was so heavily influenced by TOS it's unreal but that was it's charm. Unfortunately due to poor TV programming I've not seen a lot of ENT from season 3 or 4 so things have changed slightly. I think I prefer T'Pol as she is now than at the beginning :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domenic Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Why did they choose green? I dislike that color and they were not great lookin, besides they had so much attitude. Remember the part when they were in the brig they left MALE gaurds DUH. Then i thought ,wait mayby there gay? Then they escaped Hey is it just me? Or andarian girls look like smurfettes just tuffer ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str82u Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 It was one of the better episodes I've seen this season, especially for a stand alone. I've watched it twice all the way through just to soak it all in. Hopefully the rest of the season is at least this good, anything less will be a let down.

wolf Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 The worst Star Trek episode I've ever seen. It was laughable. Never thought I'd be relieved that Enterprise was cancelled but this crap was inexcusable. An adolescent wet dream from start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
