Fun Stuff

Goofs:

Factual errors: One of the arctic researchers carbon-dates a Borg corpse, and determines that it was about 100 years old. There are two problems here. First, carbon-dating is only accurate to within 113 years for specimens younger than 10,000 years. Second, the test assumes that the organic material - when it was alive - grew in Earth's environment, which has a fairly constant level of carbon-14. Knowing that the corpses weren't Terran, they could not base their dating on anything. more

Quotes:

[last lines]
Captain Jonathan Archer: They told their homeworld how to find Earth.
Sub-Commander T'Pol: Did you learn where the message was sent?
Captain Jonathan Archer: Somewhere deep in the Delta Quadrant.
Sub-Commander T'Pol: Then I doubt there's any immediate danger. It would take at least two hundred years for a subspace message to reach the Delta Quadrant, assuming it's received at all.
Captain Jonathan Archer: Sounds to me like we've only postponed the invasion until what - the 24th century?

Excellent Episode, One Of The Star Trek Franchise's Best, 18 February 2007
9/10
Author: Felix De La Torre from United States

This STE episode is the epitome of an excellent television production and is certainly one of the Star Trek franchise's best episodic outings. The story has a tight plot, the director elicits the proper feelings from the audience at the right times, and the acting is top-notch. I first saw this episode as part of the Star Trek Borg Fan Collective DVD set which I bought in the same month of its release, and it's fast become one of my favorites. Some of my other favorites (for comparison) are ST:TNG's "Darmok", "Face Of The Enemy", and ST:DS9's "Sacrifice Of Angels". David Livingston's direction is top-notch!

Worthy of mention is Brian Tyler's score for the episode, which is instrumental in delivering the critical emotional state of the episode. I'm a film score enthusiast, so I can appreciate an excellent score when I hear one.

Bravo, Enterprise, bravo!
