Enterprise Season 3, Episode 4: Rajiin

Woden

Well that was a bit better, i like the xindi council scenes and the tension there between the different factions, episode served to advance the general story arc and no harm in the enterprise taking a bit of a hammering now and then to put them in their place. Rajiin was hot also

discuss

What did you think?
I thought it was good it advanced the plot we saw the advanced reptiollion amour tech. The exindi had impressive wapons aswell.

A Hight 6 out of 10

I did howeaver raise the question of weaponry. Assumbley at some point in season 3 the enterprise will run out of torpedos and only have phase cannons. They will install new weapons like voyager tried 2.

Why dont they just arm warheads with liquid trilliam D. It would be far more powerfull tahn a torpedo.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Anyway's after the first 20 mins of soft core porn which added notting to the story it got pritty good.I liked seeing the council again and the fact that they fight with each other seems more real.Finaly archer get something to stop all the anomalys on the ship about time.Now earth has to worry about a death star type attack and a possible biologic attack .......Things just seem to get worse for our wee planet.

But why is it common for the last 10 mins of the show to be taken up with a attack on the ship ? getting abit boreing now they could at lest have the ship attacked some time dureing the show just to you know keep us off guard though on saying that they did it well nice grapics and some weird ass weapions in use

All in all i guess its a 5/10 ep

Woden

well i suppose they have to be able to make the warheads first and they would be unstable or would set in the warhead, kinda reminds me of the adamintine of wolverines blades in xmen that once it sets etc....

can they not just manufacture more torpedoes though? and they didn't seem to use any there so that was a good sign, what i want to know though is how they hell did they let the xindi dock and what was this vortex they used to disappeared into the wild blue yonder

Woden

threads merged

more good use of the kinda skeleton musculatory effect also interesting the way they made the vulcan one look different, the use of a bioweapon also makes things interesting

bizmark

could of been a advanced cloak or maybe a less advanced Transwarp drive

I douth a ship as small as enterprise could build new torp caseings .....though on saying that they could have around 300 + which would be enough even for a large scale battle every day for a few months

Xithus

I thought it was a good episode, and no doubt we'll see the blonde hottie again later on this season helping archer. Im off to watch episode13 now

Im Just after watching Friends/Scrubs and i ate some nice Cake aswell.

They said the smaler ship was trying to dock, it is a question of why didint the enterprise just manover aorund the place but we assume the smaer xindi ship was more manoverable and was able to dock and stay docked.

Yes im sure we will see her again. It is interesting to see that enterrpise is going more tward the Kirk way of doing thinks (allot more of the captin fighting , kicking and beating people).

Now we have to wait till tomorrow for SG1 and then we have a terrible 6 day wait for new Sci-Fi

Woden

aye scrubs rocks

one thing that annoyed me was archers agression towards people that just don't deserve it, for example the slave trader, i think a bit of kindness won't go astray when trying to extract info from people that owe him nothing

I like the way he is going like Kirk. Sure in one Star Trek episodues (think it was TNG or DS9) they describe Kirk as heavy handed. Then someone defends him by saying they were a different breed of Starfleet officer back then.

Sure humans still haven't evolved to the peace loving ones we know in TNG. Atleast Archer doesn't try to have sex with a woman of every planet they visit.

I thought they were going to kill her for betraying them at the end or something?

Was thinking all the way through Archers questioning of Rajiin "careful now, or it'll be airlock time for you baby ".

When they boarded the ship they should just have set up forcefields and then blown them out into space

That sticky stuff that shot out all the energy bullets was cool.

bizmark

The nx-01 doesnt have forcefeilds

though it could have its less advanced brother Forcesheilds *slighty different name same thing * noing Enterprise anyway

User45701

They could have just closed emergency hatches or sucked life supprot of that deck , but they would have just worn breathing aperatus and then blown up the emergency hatches.

Forcefiels where in 1 epsidoe of enterprise but yes there wernt very advanced i doupt they could survive more than a few phaser hits.

lol, I was thinking the same thing.. apparently the airlock trick only works on ugmo's though

Woden

it would have been interesting if he had have known the reason and then decided to just kill her, that would have liven things up a bit and then when the xindi came said you won't get our bio information now ha ha and then flown off thwarting the stupid insectoid xindi

User45701

Indeed. It will be very interesting to see how the Xindi plot turns out.
We learned that the Xindi operate from another faction , that assumbley rivals that of the suliban.

Enterprise cant ON ITS OWN attack 2 super wapons which are probbley fortified with over 50 ships each.

We have to assume that someone will come to help them. Mabe 1 of the Xindi factions will join them mabe the sulibon will give them a hand

I do know that 1 Andorian ship comes to help them (probbley that guy, cant rem his name Wayun plays him)

But that wont be enough, some "power" has to come to there assentence.
I saw above a discussion of the Xindi thing that made them dissapper...

cloak?
primtive transwarp?

Where both mentioned if it is a transwarp it could possibly explain where the borg got it from because the borg dont develp any of there own technolagy (except ship design and assimalation technolagy)

Its not a cloak, because the ships went into it as oposed to got enveleped by it.

I personley believe they are subspce corridors
See Voyager
Epidode "dragons teeth"

Gummy Panda

Could be a transwarp drive. How did the Xindi get a probe all the way to earth without a early warning signal going off.Starfleet command must be able to pick up incoming warp signatures. Plus that is a helll of a long way for a one manned probe to go at warp speed (i dunno if the xindi have over warp 5).

And i think Archer should've beat the info from the blonde girl with a hypo-spanner!!

User45701

Docter in voyager "That hypo spanncer would cause a unactable amount of dammage" Ensign Kim: "What do you suggest? Docter then sugests some madd chemical that desolves a persons optic nerves (VERY painfull)

Yes i didnt think of how the Xindi got a probe there, but if they where using the subspace corridors theycould get it to earth aswell.

Stark

[OT] Did anyone else see Dr. Phlox in Angel last night?

Gummy Panda

Yeah, i had it on and was doing work on my pc with my back to it. Then i heard his voice.

Not bad episodue.

claire h

The council crack me up. I just can't take them seriously.

Anyway's after the first 20 mins of soft core porn...

... not to mention that bit with Rajiin feeling up T'Pol in her quarters. Shocking stuff. *cough* so pretty...

[OT] Did anyone else see Dr. Phlox in Angel last night?

YES! And he was playing a doctor, which amused me. *is easily amused*

bizmark

not to mention that bit with Rajiin feeling up T'Pol in her quarters

ya i didnt realy mind that bit

Woden

hmm yeah for some reason that didn't bother me either, ah well, i was thinking though the whole neurotherapy crap with tucker and t'pol is a crap storyline, but i can see them getting it on etc. further into the series

bizmark

well the way Star trek enterprise is going i can just see Archer sitting on the bridge waveing his nob at the klingons some day
