Another decent episode. We left it with the Enterprise breaking the Human speed record, now the Columbia comes along and takes the Blue Riband. Still, we actually saw a warp field, and that was unique. Trip's high-warp high-wire was a bit far-fetched, but good. Phlox's pursuit of the cure was fairly believable, and provided some minor insights into Klingon culture. We also had some decent interplay between the main cast. Not so sure about the ending, Archer growing ridges in less than a minute and Antaak losing his almost as quickly. Think how long a fracture takes to regenerate. Still, seeing two Earth ships fighting off the Klingons, maybe they looked too advanced, but it was done very well. The cast did OK with this, the story was good, the pacing worked and generally it all fitted together. I also noticed that the incidental music has taken a decidedly TOS turn as well. Overall, not bad at all. |
