2021-05-10 05:05:57 +0000 UTCSybok and Michele walk into a bar... sorry, not sorry 😋 wow, I was WAY off on this synch, like 4 seconds off. yeah, we need more emotionally balanced Vulcans, fingers crossed for Disco season 4. When I first watched this episode I was back and forth as to if that dude was sleezy, couldn't decide untill... anyway. The 'othering' done by the High Command regarding those who integrate their emotions is prolly the reason so many integrator attempts have failed; makes me think of the demonization of the polyamorist people today. - yeah, i'm not watching the dream sequence, just listening... and typing. I think the creeper must have used T'Pol's lack of meditation to intrude into her mind. Phlox is such a sweetie. Yeah, I'm certain, creeper set T'Pol up to be weak without meditation and then attack her, he was so focused on her dreaming, like he'd done this before. (ick) creeper being "helpful"... well I'll help him out an airlock. - and now consent has been withdrawn - dude get out, she said "leave" jeez, what an ass-wipe. that was yucky. fuck that guy - and yes, Trip is a wonderful platte cleanser. And in his office Archer is barely restraining himself from punching the creeper in his stoopid face. Archer teaches him about consent. I'm going to assume that the Vulcan ship punished the creeper properly, but... well, Berman. anywhoo - Trip made a Vulcan friend. I like the progression of Archer and T'Pol's friendship in this episode, well written and acted. Joleen was brilliant, agreed. "flawed but solid" yes, this describes most of Trek. thank-you Jessie
