This week, we’re on a second contact mission, revisiting the Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 26 “The Expanse,” now that Maria and Jamie have watched it and have a lot of thoughts on the 9/11 allusions that were a huge part of this episode.We also discuss this lovely print by artist Amir Abou-Roumié, which Maria had on her wall for years without realizing it contained a spoiler for this episode.A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “Space Bermuda Triangle!,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week.We now have merch!

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 26 “The Expanse,” but only Bill has actually watched the episode. It’s the end of the second season of Enterprise and it’s a disaster! On Earth, we mean! A mysterious new race attacks the earth, and it’s up to the NX-01 crew to head into Space Bermuda Triangle (or Spermuda, if you will) to exact revenge in the name of great justice! Meanwhile T’pol considers if risking being turned inside-out is worse than going back to her Vulcan fiance, Trip gets the bloodlust, and Duras has a very, very bad day.Rikermendations:Jamie: Rehash podcast Maria: Thursday Murder Club booksBill: Marrying Mister Darcy card gameWe now have merch!

This week, we’re on a second contact mission, revisiting Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 25 “Bounty,” now that Maria and Bill have watched it. Plus, our guest from last week, Jarrah from the Women at Warp podcast, is back with us to talk about this episode, which seems to consist mostly of T’Pol writhing around on the ground and walls. We also discuss in depth every baffling part of this screencap of Trip’s bookshelf.A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “What Happens in Decon Stays in Decon!,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week.We now have merch!

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 25 “Bounty,” but only Jamie has actually watched the episode. Jarrah from Women at Warp is back with us this week to discuss this episode that involves T'Pol going through pon farr, which for some reason mostly seems to involve rubbing her body on every wall. Also, perpetual damsel-in-distress Archer is kidnapped again, which may seem familiar since it happens in every third episode of Enterprise (seriously -- we checked!).
