Enterprise: 3x14 Stratagem
I know it doesn't look like it recently in my blog, but I am actually still interested in some fandoms that are neither comics nor cartoons. Though I'm often either lagging behind watching the episodes or don't feel like blogging about them, or both.
That said, I enjoyed the latest Enterprise episode:
At the start I was a bit disappointed because even before Archer got out of the simulator for the first time it was obvious that it had to be something like that, as they already had a time travel "it never happened after all" episode this season with Twilight, so I was fairly sure that they wouldn't do one this soon after, even as riddled as Enterprise is with this wacky time line stuff. Somehow I would have liked more of twist, though I'm not sure what.
Once that was out of the way, I enjoyed the interaction between Archer and Degra, how Archer tries to get information and trust, Degra is suspicious (rightly so after all), and they try to outmaneuver each other into making a mistake. Yet we still see Xindi and human have a different, more personal relationship than usual. And I enjoyed the elaborate simulation set-up, the backstory they created for it.
I'm actually starting to enjoy Archer more this season, especially in those episodes that mostly focus on him with one other person, whether it's a crew member or someone else. I think finally his character is starting to click with me.
