The crew of the Enterprise arrive a a brand "strange new world". Cowboy Archer sends an exploration team before surveying the planet from orbit -- as suggested by T'Pol. Archer's disregarding of T'Pol's advice is beyond me. Chaos ensues.
Archer's love for water polo is shown for the first time.
If they scanned the area and there were no humanoid forms, I assume they also saw there weren't many large animals. What was with having a case of four phaser pistols other than for a standoff scene?
Why is it that the Captain of the first human space exploration ship is the one that is flying a rescue shuttle pod? Can he not delegate?
Poor red shirt who got transported and... uh, merged with leaves and twigs.
T'Pol suffers the consequences of Archer's bad decision.
A disappointing episode that caps off Blu-ray disc one of the Enterprise collection.
