'Star Trek': 100 Greatest Episodes

Fifty years later, the mission continues as 'Star Trek' castmembers from the original series, 'Next Generation,' 'Deep Space Nine,' 'Voyager,' and 'Enterprise' pick their top episodes and share memories of boldly going where no one has gone before.

"The Andorian Incident"
'Star Trek: Enterprise,' Season 1, Episode 7 (2001)
With a screenplay by occasional Shane Black collaborator Fred Dekker, this episode sets up a political situation that wouldn't be resolves until the latter years of the series — a standoff between the Vulcans and the Andorians. It also underscores one of the more subversive pieces of Enterprise lore: that Vulcans really are untrustworthy, arrogant jerks who act very suspiciously when it comes to their relationships with other alien races. In both ways, it signals that the universe of Enterprise definitely isn't the Star Trek audiences may be familiar with, without sacrificing the momentum of the episode — which centers on Andorian suspicions that Vulcans are less religious, and more interested in spying on other planets, than they admit.

Yes, because there are a few others capable of challenging it. Not many, but a few.

Indeed. Also BoBW I, All Good Things... and In the Pale Moonlight off the top off my head.

Yes. Much like "City on the Edge of Forever," "The Inner Light" tugs at the emotional heartstrings.
