Unexpected (ENT S01E05)

January 13, 2017

Outside of the pop music (which has grown on me), the opening title sequence is pretty epic. I like the visual trip through human flight history.

Strange happenings on the Enterprise lead them to discover an unexpected hitchhiker. Trip goes for a field trip on to an alien ship to help repair their ship and returns home pregnant.

I am not sure why the Klingons were introduced into the episode other than to drum up some drama. This episode could have easily worked without the Klingons.

"I can see my house from here." Best line in the show.

T'Pol "exaggerating" shows her adapting to human ways.

This was not a great or even good episode. But, it was entertaining enough. Seeing Trip pregnant was borderline hilarious, yet the implications were quite serious. The tone for that sequence was weird and off-kilter.
