Enterprise: Episode 25 - TWO DAYS AND TWO NIGHTS

"After weeks of detours, Enterprise arrives for shore leave on Risa. While there, Archer encounters a woman who knows more about the Suliban than she's willing to admit"

Directed by Michael Dorn

So the finally make it to Risa. Actually they made this place look pretty awesome, like a Caribbean island resort. I want to be there. Sure I would still be miserable, but at least I'll be miserable in a different location. They draw lots to see who gets to go down and relax. In probably the greatest coincidence of all time; Archer, Mayweather, Trip, Malcolm and Hoshi draw the first lots. On a ship of hundreds of people, this is the group that remarkably draws the lots. So anyway. Here's the breakdown in a nutshell:

Mayweather: breaks his leg while mountain climbing. Evidently people still waste their time doing this in the future.
Trip and Malcolm:  Get fooled by two transvestites and get robbed. I believe this has happened to many a person in NYC.
Archer: Meets a hot Cougar. And not Johnny Cougar, but an actual woman. She's an alien in disguise (the same race that Al was). He thinks he's gonna score, but she just wants info from him. What a tease.
Hoshi: In a twist ending, she's the only one to get laid while on vacation. He's a hideous looking cross between a Slav and a Klingon. No offense to the Klingons. Hmmm so that's what Asian chicks like.

Dr. Phlox puts himself into a 2 day hibernation, but they have to wake him because of Mayweathers broken leg. He's totally messed up and acting like he's hammered. It's pretty funny. I realized that he reminds me of Kelsey Grammer, he even looks like him. I'd like to note that Archer is reading a book.


I'm glad to see that the Kindle has gone out of style. Can't beat reading a physical book.

The woman that plays Crewman Cutler (Dr. Phlox's sort-of love interest) died when she was 36. She was also in a Seinfeld episode. If care to know more, read it here.

Yeah, but this episode wasn't very funny. I guess that script is based on the planet from the TOS episode, which is different! Wheew that was close

thats weird that the lady died who was on seinfield because on that show she was playing someone who might die and wanted elaine to take care of her kid when she passed away.
its sad because she was good looking, if she was ugly i wouldn't care if she died

also i figure that they wouldn't have kindle or even physical books but you just download the memory of having read the book like in "total recall"
oh i am going to read the davinci code....how disapointing

They probably would have that. But that would take the fun out of reading. Fun? Right???
