Enterprise: Episode 63 - CARPENTER STREET

"With the help of Daniels, Archer and T'Pol go back in time after discovering a group of Xindi reptilians are creating a biological weapon in 2004 Detroit."

The premise is stupid, like why would these Xindi bother going back in time to Detroit to make biological weapons? I don't know. The Xindi reptiles have some junkie stealing blood from the blood bank and all kinds of weird shit like this. But the episode was enjoyable. It was interesting to see Archer trying to navigate such simple tasks such as using an ATM machine or driving a car. And yes, Archer takes T'Pol who again looks totally out of place. The thing is ... Detroit is a horrible place, sure the episode had a junkie and a few prostitutes but I think in reality Archer and T'Pol would have been dead within one night. Lets put it this way, they wouldn't see Tim Taylor and Al Borland walking around. Anyway, they could have at least gone to a Tigers game. Or take a side trip to Toronto. That's what I would have done.

This would've been a perfect time to bring along the black guy.

They always make vulcans wear hats on earth. They should have had the entire away crew in black face because the only surveying image from that time period is of Al Jolsen.
If they blew up detroit would anyone care!? Or even notice

Glad you guys went there, because for once I didn't.

Oh man--I'm laughing.

Kind of makes you wonder what you'd do, though, if you had to go back in time, say, to the the year 1800. You'd be so appalled by how shitty everything is, you wouldn't be able to wait to get out of there.

Or if you went to Detroit right now.

I figure the crew needed to go back in time to buy crack because in the future Earth was being attacked by Crack Head Dolphins or something
