Trekkies of Tumblr I once again need your help

So I've been watching Enterprise and it's fun and all but it doesn't feel like star trek at all.

No, it's not because the federation (and its rules) doesn't exist yet, I find that quite interesting actually... it's just the writing feels subpar from what I've come to expect from ST (and they just seem to rehash plots from other st shows which is sad). Also T'pol feels more like a Romulan than a Vulcan (most of the Vulcans actually have a Romulan vibe). And last but not least WHAT THE HELL WHERE THEY THINKING WITH THAT SONG?

Anyway my question for you my fellow Trekkies is, will it ever feel like star trek? (I'm currently on s2) I'm gonna watch it till the end anyway because I'm actually having fun (and I am a completionist) just curious.

not an Enterprise lover (more on that later) but Scott Bakula is literally just so shape. He’s so….guy. And trip tuckers pretty neat too.

Wanna Try Star Trek? 3 - The Joy of Jeffrey Combs

John Startrek here, reporting in for our third entry in this beginner friendly series of Star Trek episode summaries, designed to help show all you curious tumblr users just how fun this silly little franchise can be. Conveniently enough, the Great Wheel of Trek has selected for us today a third new show for us to look at, Star Trek Enterprise. So whether you’re new to Trek, or an old hand, replicate yourself a raktajino and settle in.

Star Trek Enterprise, known simply as Enterprise in its first two seasons, is a prequel to the rest of the franchise. It’s set in the early years of human interstellar exploration, back before the formation of the United Federation of Planets to which Earth will one day belong. Our Captain this time around is Johnathan Archer, played by Scott Bakula. There’s no manual for how to handle all those Trek-y situations yet, so Archer’s figuring this stuff out as he goes.

Enterprise had an even more rough production history that Voyager did, and has never really had the best reputation. But as the years roll by, the show is being increasingly reevaluated in a positive light. This was only my second time watching this episode and yeah, it’s definitely better than I gave it credit for at the time.

So let’s get started on season 1 episode 14 Shadows of P’Jem.

We open with Soval, the Vulcan Ambassador to Earth, having a rather tense discussion with Admiral Forrest over the events of a previous episode, The Andorian Incident, in which Archer made an unscheduled visit to a Vulcan monastery and uncovered a secret spy station. It was being used by the Vulcans to keep tabs on Andorians, with whom they’re currently in a state of cold war.

Soval makes a fair point that Archer is having a destabilising effect on the region after only six months, and implies that he should be removed from his post as captain of the Enterprise. Forrest responds by pointing out that the Vulcans are actually guilty of the spying the Andorians were accusing them of. He further asserts that Vulcans do not appoint Starfleet personnel, and Soval leaves to go back to Vulcan in a huff.

Science Officer’s Note: Vulcans are one of the most important and popular alien races in Star Trek, and you probably know them from the deeply logical and deeply gay Spock. In order to suppress their powerful emotions, Vulcans practice a philosophy of strict logic and emotional suppression. In Enterprise, they’re trying to act as stuffy den mothers to humanity, who by and large are not fond of the mollycoddling.

On Enterprise, Archer is having a nice dinner in his quarters with his Chief Engineer, Charles “Trip” Tucker III, a good old Florida boy. He’s talking about their next destination, an inhabited planet called Coridan. He ribs Trip that he’s not going to take him along, leaving Trip to have the most kicked puppy look on his face.

But things can’t stay happy forever, and they’re interrupted by a call from Admiral Forrest, who tells Archer what happened at his meeting with Soval. Apparently the monastery at P’Jem was bombed by the Andorians shortly after Enterprise left.

Science Officer’s Note: The Andorians are blue and have antennae, which made many of the people working on Trek to think they were too silly to be brought back after the original series until they finally showed up again in an important role on Enterprise. In contrast to the stoic and logical Vulcans, Andorians revel in their fiery tempers. Also, their antennae move like a cat’s tail to symoblise their mood thanks to an impressive blend of prosthetics and remote control work.

There’s some additional bad news, which Archer decides to deliver to T’Pol in person. T’Pol, a Vulcan who was assigned to Enterprise as the Science Officer and second in command, is being recalled to Vulcan to be reassigned. Now, Archer doesn’t like Vulcans very much, to the point of bigotry. But over the course of this season he’s grown attached to the frosty Vulcan. For her part, T’Pol doesn’t let her mask of Vulcan stoicness falter, though she does admit to feeling like the destruction of P’Jem was her fault.

After a short scene of Archer telling Trip he can’t go to Coridan for real this time so he can take T’Pol with him, we arrive at the mess hall where the ship’s Doctor Phlox tries to coax T’Pol into fighting her transfer. T’Pol remains unmoved.

In a shuttle ride to the planet, Archer tries to start up some small talk but T’Pol’s not the chattiest. She does, however, ask why she was chosen for this mission. Archer makes a decent point, that Vulcans do business with this planet but they’ve never met humans before, so a Vulcan is well suited to introduce the two peoples. He also says that if she really doesn’t want to go, they can always turn around. 

T’Pol’s excuse for staying on mission to spend some time with Archer is that it would be illogical to waste fuel by turning back now. The nice moment is broken by somebody shooting at them, which isn’t very nice. They try to fight back, but get shot down and captured.

We go right into Archer and T’Pol tied up in a cell, where they banter about Houdini until their captors show up to interrogate them. Their leader claims they’re a rebel faction, acting against a corrupt regime held in power by the Vulcans. 

He asks about their sidearms, which Archer replies are called phase pistols. When questioned about the Enterprise, Archer gives them some lip and gets smacked across the face for it. T’Pol claims that Archer is the ship’s cook, and they’re here to cook a banquet for the planet’s chancellor. The captors assume she, therefore, is the captain.

Speaking of the chancellor, Trip is third in the chain of command and so has assumed command of Enterprise while Archer and T’Pol are away. He’s on a call with Coridan’s chancellor, who doesn’t take kindly to Trip’s assertions that they should have been warned about the rebels and that the Coridans have failed to protect a pair of diplomatic envoys. He gets cut off for his troubles, and the crew look into ways to track Archer and T’Pol.

Ship Counsellor’s Note: This is followed up by a scene of Archer & T’Pol trying to escape that isn’t really worth going over in detail, except to talk about the sexualisation of female characters in Star Trek. See, in this scene, they do the whole guy falling over and ending up with his face in a woman’s boobs gag. 

While the original 60’s show was actually pretty progressive for including the miniskirt, a symbol of women’s liberation at the time, and TNG/DS9/VOY had been pretty good about this stuff, they weren’t perfect. Deanna Troy famously spent most of her screentime in low cut dresses despite being a Starfleet officer, and Seven of Nine was explicitly added to the show to look good in tight catsuits. Enterprise is the nadir of the franchise in this respect, with T’Pol not only donning her own set of catsuits, but the show contriving a lot of excuses to see its two female stars in various states of undress over and over.

Back to the plot, Malcolm Reed, Enterprise’s Security Officer, thinks he’s located the shuttle in a shanty town just a few kilometres from the planet’s capital. He wants to take an armed team in to investigate, but Trip tells him to hold fire. Just then, the rebels called Enterprise to demand 40 phase pistols or they’ll kill their hostages. Not two minutes after they hang up on him, a Vulcan ship hails Enterprise to say they’re here to pick up T’Pol. Trip gets annoyed at them too, and the captain, Sopek, gets all haughty and says they’ll take over the investigation.

Cut to later on the Enterprise, with Sopek on board, where the Vulcan captain insists on storming the compound. Trip accuses him of not caring about the safety of Archer & T’Pol, and conveniently forgets to tell Spoke their location when asked. He then tells Reed to fire up the shuttle to go rescue them themselves.

A guard brings food for Archer & T’Pol, and because of the way they’re bound, Archer is forced into a degrading position to eat anything. T’Pol refuses to follow suit until Archer orders her to do so. I know what the Counsellor said earlier about sexualisation in the show, but this isn’t really an example of that. The reason we’re talking about this scene is that Archer finds a doodad in his meal with a blinking light. Looks like somebody’s on their side.

The ship’s Communications Officer, Hoshi Sato, is on Enterprise for the customary “sorry my parents aren’t home” call when Sopek realises another shuttle has left Enterprise, and cuts him off with static.

In the shanty town, Trip & Reed have barely gone twenty feet from the shuttle when they themselves get captured. It’s not the rebels though, it’s Commander Shran, the Andorian from the incident in The Andorian Incident. He says they’re there to aid the rebels in overthrowing the Vulcan-backed government but after P’Jem, he owes Archer a debt and is planning to rescue him. Trip & Reed insist on coming along.

Ship Counsellor’s Note: Jeffrey Combs is something of a Star Trek legend. As an actor, he’s been in many projects over the years, but Trekkies love him for his two recurring roles on DS9 as Weyoun and Liquidator Brunt. He’s a very charismatic actor who commits hard to the role, and Shran is one of the highlights of the show.

The glowing doodad is a communication device, which lets Trip explain the plan to Archer & T’Pol. While the rescue is pretty successful, they’re interrupted by the Vulcan raid. Shran tells Archer hsi debt is repaid, but on their way out the Vulcans and Andorians run into each other and enter into a standoff. It’s resolved when a wounded rebel tries to shoot Sopek, only for T’Pol to jump in front of the shot.

Back on Enterprise, everyone’s crowded around T’Pol’s bed in sickbay. Sopek is clearly concerned about her, and Phlox says that her prognosis is not good. Archer tries to commiserate with him, and asks him to put in a good word for T’Pol at Vulcan High Command so she can stay on Enterprise. Sopek can’t take T’Pol with him while she’s wounded, but he does have a meeting with the High Command soon, and might have time to bring it up with them.

When a shaken Sopek leaves, Phlox revives T’Pol from her induced coma and tells her she’s not to leave sickbay for 24 hours. When Archer tells her he thinks he’s managed to sort out that whole T’Pol being transferred issue, T’Pol said he shouldn’t have interfered. Archer says she’s free to go chase down Sopek if she really wants to tell him not to. T’Pol chooses her excuse this time to be that she can’t, as that would be disobeying doctor’s orders.

This is not as good an episode as our previous two. It is one of the better ones in Enterprise’s first season, which is not really a great season of television. Something you might have noticed from this summary is a number of times when a scene transitions from one part of a discussion, to that same discussion happening at a different time or location. Take Sopek’s call to Enterprise, for example. What was really accomplished by Sopek coming aboard that couldn’t have been done over the video call?

It’s also not entirely clear whether Archer & T’Pol’s scenes or Trip’s scene really constitute the a-plot of the episode. Both have scenes that don’t really need to be there, like Hoshi’s call with Sopek, or the boobs-in-face scene. The potentially intense and complex political situation of the Vulcans and Andorians fighting a proxy war via Coridan is something DS9 could have handled in its sleep, but Enterprise passes over the opportunity.

So is this a bad episode of television? No, it’s just a bit of an underdeveloped one. Like much of Enterprise, it’s a bunch of unrealised potential with some moments of undeniable charm.

Speak to me, oh Great Wheel of Trek. Please, grant unto us some TNG. so we can go four for four on this.

Well, would you look at that. Ask and you’ll receive I guess.Now tell me, oh Great Wheel of Trek, should I buy a lottery ticket next week?

Note: I was so excited that Captain Archer came up as the character, I love him and have not been able to write for him yet.

You groaned as you opened your eyes slowly, your vision spinning as you struggled to calm your dizziness. After a moment, your vision steadied and you were able to take a look around your surroundings. The shuttle you had been in was torn nearly in two, you were still in the pilots seat, but lying horizontally, the shuttle turned on it’s side. You managed to unbuckle yourself and fell into the wall with a grunt, standing up in the lopsided shuttle you were immediately aware of the smell of fire and the visible smoke coming from the back of the shuttle. 

Staggering out of the shuttle, grabbing an extinguisher as you did so. You looked around the surroundings outside before you put the fire out. After finally managing to put the fires out you tossed the extinguisher onto the ground, you spun around, looking at the area around you. 

It was dark, night time, which made you wonder how long you had been unconscious, it was daytime when you made your way onto the planet. You seemed to be at the bottom of a canyon, as you were surrounded by steep cliff walls. Looking up at the alien sky, you couldn’t make out much, only seeing some stars clouded over. As well as the bright red embers of your crashed ship floating up into the sky before disappearing 

You thought back on what had happened, remembering that, though the planet was no longer populated, the old weapons defense systems were still intact, but you only learned this once you began to descend to the planet on what was supposed to be a normal scouting mission to see if the planet held any useful resources. The weapons must have been shielding from your scans. 

Clambering back into the ship you tried turning on your coms system to contact Enterprise, but only received static. “Damn” you muttered to yourself, wondering how long it would be until the crew would find you. The deep canyon walls must have been clouding your scan signal. You continued working on the consuls, trying to send out a distress signal.

- - -

Back on the ship, Jonathan paced back in forth “Anything?” he asked looking a T’Pol who gave him a shake of the head in response.

“No Captain, there are no life signs detected yet. But we have only covered approximately 55% of the planets surface, and there are many deep canyons covered the surface, if Y/n’s ships crashed into one it will be harder to find them”.

Jonathan sighed as he stared out of the ships window, the darkened planet below him “What about the weapons system? Were you able to locate them?”

“We have located two of the guns, but we believe there to be more. The new scans will be finished momentarily.” 

Jonathan sighed as he sat back in his seat, trying to calm himself, but knowing he would not be able to. Not until he knew you were safe and back on the ship. 

“Sir, we have finished the weapons scans and located all of the weapons systems on the planet”

“Good. Blast ‘em” he said, giving the command to destroy the canons, so they could descend closer to the planet. 

- - -

You began to shiver from the cold as you tried to contact Enterprise again, failing when the consul sparked in retaliation. You groaned in frustration before you began looking through storage containers, managing to find a blanket in a storage box as well as a med-kit to patch up the small cuts and gashes on your body from the crash. 

Wrapping the blanket around yourself, you looked out of the back of the shuttle again, up at the night sky, your breath coming out as a visible fog. Are they still looking for you? Or have they given up? “No, they wouldn’t” you said to yourself out loud “He wouldn’t”. Your mind wandered to your Captain, your boyfriend. There is no way in hell he’d give up looking for you. 

You were surprised suddenly by the sound of gunfire and explosions. Walking out of the shuttle you look up, only seeing distant flashes of blasts. “Oh God” you muttered. You anxiously hoped that was the sound of Enterprise shooting down the weapons system, rather than the weapons shooting them down. 

Suddenly getting an idea, you ran back into the shuttle and began looking through your packs. Grabbing your phaser gun, you began to tinker with it, wanting to use it as a sort of flare, you’d have to adjust it’s power to make it brighter. 

After a few moments you walked back out of the shuttle, pointing your phaser up, you fired three times, a few seconds in between each shot. Hoping they would see it. Waiting a few moments you fired again, three times. 

“Come on guys. See me.” you whispered, your teeth chattering from the cold.

- - -

“All weapons canons have been destroyed, we can begin out descent to the planet.”

“Good, let’s go” Archer replied.

“Captain” Trip began “The planets temperature is plummeting, it’s gettin’ real cold down there.”

Archer looked at him before nodding in understanding “Let’s just hope Y/n’s shuttle is in tact enough to keep them warm.”

“Captain, look!” Hoshi suddenly said, pointing out at the planet they approached.

“What?” Archer said as he looked, seeing nothing. 

“I saw three lights coming from the planet surface, they looked like flares.” 

“Y/n doesn’t have any flares” Malcolm broke in.

“No, but if they tinker with their phaser they’d be able to make some pretty bright shots.” Trip said. 

As they all looked out of the windows, they saw as another light appeared, followed by another, and then a third. 

“That’s gotta be Y/n, get us over there.”

- - -

You stared up at the sky hoping that they saw the shots. As you tried to fire again, sparks shot out of your phaser. Dropping it with a hiss as you got burned you sighed in desperation. Your phaser was no good now. Looking around, you thought of maybe climbing the sides of the canyon, but you shut that thought down immediately, there was no way you could make it up there, not at night at least. 

You wrapped your blanket around you tighter as it seemed to grow colder, looking up at the sky, there were almost no stars visible, just darkness and silence. Your mind thinking again of the explosions, your gut wrenching at the thought that it was Enterprise being shot at. 

Just as you turned to go back into your ship to try your coms again, you stopped when you heard a distant sound similar to a ship. Gazing up at the sky, your heart began to pound as you smiled widely, seeing Enterprise coming into view over the canyon opening. 

You could hear static coming over the coms on your ship, making it obvious that they were trying to contact you. Running back in, you tried to communicate with them, but couldn’t get through, but you hoped that they could hear that you were trying, that you were here.

Getting an idea, you left the ship again, and began to climb up onto the top of the turned over ship, almost slipping a few times, and dropped your blanket as you did so. Finally managing to get on top, you stared up at the ship, hoping they could get a clear shot at you with the transporters. 

- 

“The coms must be down” Hoshi said as all that came through was static instead of your voice. 

“Captain, I’m getting a good scan of Y/n, we can beam the back on board.”

“Do it.” Jonathan said as he quickly made his way to the transport room “And send Phlox!” 

As he ran into the transporter room, he saw as you began to appear. He ran over to you as soon as you were transported completely. You were hunched slightly, your body shaking and you have visible cuts and gashes on your skin. You smiled at him as he hugged you close, immediately feeling how freezing you were.

Your teeth were still chattering “I was afraid you hadn’t seen the flares.” you said through chattering teeth. 

“We saw them, that was smart” he said with a breathy sigh, glad that you were safe. 

As Phlox quickly entered, Jonathan pulled away “We need to get you warm quickly, your body temperature is much to low” Phlox said as they began ushering you to the med-bay. 

As you sat on the bed with a heated blanket wrapped around you, and a hot drink in your hands, all cuts bandaged and cleaned, you sighed, finally feeling better and even more relieved. Jonathan sitting next to you, hand rubbing up and down your back. 

“I was real worried there for a while. I thought I got you killed.” 

You could hear the regret in his voice as he spoke to you. You looked at him and smiled while shaking your head “There was no way for you to know. And besides, I’m fine.”

He smiled back at you as you tried to console his guilt, leaning forward and pressing a kiss to your forehead “Yeah, you are.”  he closed his eyes as he held you close to him, repeating over in his head “You’re fine.”

Not very angsty but whatever lol I’m bad at writing angst anyway

14,15,16 for the star trek asks??

14. Spot or Porthos?

Uhhhh I’m not really a animal/pet person, but I DO know that while Data loves Spot, Brent Spiner hated that cat! Lmao! So maybe Porthos because the ‘character chemistry’ between that beagle and Scott Bakula is more genuine??? 😂

15. Worst alien makeup/costume?

Oh jeazus, probably the sparkly neon orange plastic chunk nightmares Elaan’s personal guard were wearing in Elaan of Troyius. As far as actual alien makeup, a lot of early TOS costumes were rough, the Andorians were particularly funny to me because MAN that blue chalky makeup does not survive the scrutiny high definition 😂 also CGI Tholians from Enterprise SUCK sorrynotsorry.

16. Best alien makeup/costume?

Uh, literally anything Spock wears is gorgeous no I will not be taking criticism. But ESPECIALLY the elegant black Kohlinar robes he wears in The Motion Picture. As well as anything worn by Vulcans that isn’t male-gaze-catsuit (sorry T’Pol sweetie you deserved so much better!) because dayum! Desert goth fashion babeyyyy. I feel like Dr. Miranda Jones is an honorary mention because of her Vulcan training and that fabulous utilitarian bejeweled shawl she wears. I also think as far as actual aliens go, the rock alien from The Savage Curtain was REALLY impressive for when TOS was out!

Headcanons - NX-01 Crew (Enterprise)

// i’ve been having a lot of anxiety lately dealing with a situation out of my control, so to distract myself, i’ve been thinking of all these headcanons for what the NX-01 crew would be like as friends. enjoy my rambling :)

Trip Tucker giving the best hugs. i bet the man is a natural heater and would just wrap his arms around you, like a blanket of warmth and comfort. Good listener too. Overall great for comfort and very affectionate.

T’pol is the best person to vent to. Not only can she give a logical outlook on the issue, but she’s also a great listener and would really help you calm down if needed. She’s also amazing at keeping secrets, as long as you ask her not to tell, her lips are sealed.

Phlox gives the best pep talks. He’s very optimistic and would DEFINITELY help ease some anxiety if you couldn’t sleep, either in the way of medicine or giving a pep talk or just to be there if you ever need to vent. at all hours of the day too, this man doesn’t sleep.

Hoshi is the BEST when it comes to distracting you from your current emotions/situations. If you’re worrying about something and need to wait it out, she’d definitely sit with you and talk about anything and everything to help get your mind of off things. She has an amazing sense of humor.

Archer’s extreme dad energy. Making sure you’re okay, not just as a crewman but also as a friend. Invites you to a ton of meal times in his ready room. He wants to know all about you, where you’re from, what you like, etc.! he thinks of his crew like family

Travis would give good advise if you vented to him, but he’d also comment on the situation and help get all of your emotions out. like saying thing like “oh that’s so unfair!! you have every right to feel this way!!” he’s amazing at keeping secrets too and checks up on you after the situation plays out.

Malcolm isn’t the best to vent to, but he would definitely help distract from stress and anxiety. He wouldn’t ask if you didn’t wanna talk about it. He would listen if prompted but wouldn’t give the best advise. Would help with assignments if you needed a break and talk to Archer for you if needed.

Porthos will cuddle. For cheese of course, give him cheese and you’re his new best friend.

[andorians-antennae]

Ah, rememeber that ep of ENT where Archer and Shran kissed and Trip didn't die? Good times

Rewatching Star Trek Enterprise for the first time since it aired.

If Jeffrey Combs didn't play Commander Shran as having a thing for Captain Archer, then I am thoroughly confused.
