I liked this past episode, but I had my complaints. Most of all, this is all hanging on my Trek-fan bias towards Vulcans. Spock was my all-time favorite among the originals, and still pretty much at the top now.

I find it hard to believe that the Vulcans could have a centuries-long (by TOS timeline) reputation for honesty when there is this flat-out lie. On top of that, sure the guy was a monk (perhaps not), but how does Archer take him out with an elbow? Of course Kirk could do it, but no one can deliver the double axehandle punch like him...or the running drop kick.

Great show..I'll still be watching!! I do like how the humans seem somewhat clumsy and goofy at times.

Brandon Braga, and Rick Berman have both stated in interviews that the Vulcan attitude is directly related to events that will inlighten many of us. What exactly that means, I have no fricking idea.

Jeffery Combs, (The Lead Andorian, Wyoune, and Brunt the Ferengi) did a great job here, and I hope to see his andorian character again.

I liked the Last episode "The Andorian Incident" - I think it begins to show how the Federation was formed and how humans played the most important role (mediating between the Andorians/Vulcan etc...)

I'm sorry, but comets don't have significant gravity - not even large ones. The problem would be keeping the shuttle from floating off the surface, not having it crash through the crust. The whole plot was so contrived, it was ridiculous. That was probably the worst episode in a Trek series I have ever seen. They need to hire some writers.

Finally got to see the Andorian Incident on tape. That one was pretty good. I'm with Krakenup on the comet episode. That went beyond my "Trek Suspension of Disbelief" capabilities.
