I think ...I enjoyed reading your review, CoramDeo.<br /><br />I think one of the strengths of this show is its closer connection to present day Earth than other Trek series, all of which tended to be more futuristic and distant. Here we had a charming parallel between the human fourth grade class asking questions on food, dating, germs, and where does the poop go, and the almost childish enthusiasm of the Enterprise crew as they explore the "biggest comet humans have ever seen." We even have the Vulcan overlords arriving as unwelcome babysitters.<br /><br />The comet stuff was okay (I especially liked the Vulcan snowman), but I enjoyed other parts of this episode much more. Trip and T'Pol did some interesting bonding and became confidants. He gave her some good advice, too, and despite her initial reaction, she obviously took it. Good for her. And good for Trip.<br /><br />I also enjoyed the dinner, with Archer moving from cordial charm to complete stonewalling in the face of Vanik's outright rudeness and condescension. You'd think that someone in Vanik's position would have a better handle on public relations. Or maybe Vanik was just so prejudiced against humans that he couldn't help going overboard?Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
