The episode had a message and it wasn't going to let us leave without cramming that message into every brain cell in our heads. To its credit, it was careful to get that message right: it wasn't "religion is bad," it was "blowing up people [i ![]() ![]() "Proving Ground," on the other hand, was barrels of fun. It was an interesting twist on the usual "Are they on our side or not?" story -- the answer to that question actually changed partway through when Shran got the order to steal the weapon.

![]() ![]() I agree with you on Chosen Realm. When Archer was given that choice, I immediately knew what his answer would be. I did not, however, expect his transporter-idea. That was pretty cool. Proving ground was great. I was hoping for some connection with the first two seasons in the expanse. It's too bad the Andorians didn't go with him through multiple episodes. That's what I was hoping too. Now I wonder when we'll learn about this seasons connection with the time-travelers. Who told the Xindi the humans would destroy their planet? And wasn't it already destroyed by their own war? Do the Suliban play a role? Good thing there's no temporal prime directive yet. (Or is there? ![]() ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() [color=#000000 ![]() It's doubtful Shran would've turned around after finding T'Pol in command, and he probably would've just stuck to communicating with Trip as often as possible. I'd just expect that any time T'Pol issued orders, Shran would balk more often and adamantly than he did to Archer. It's doubtful T'Pol would've been allowed on Shran's ship at all, and so either the Andorians would've stolen the prototype successfully, or T'Pol would've done what Archer did and the Andorians would leave Enterprise behind, but with considerably worse relations than they did in the episode. As for my overall thoughts, "Chosen Realm" was fair. Scifi depictions of religion normally don't impress me too much, and this episode was no exception. "Proving Ground" was great. I really enjoyed it, enough to even catch the encore showing Saturday at 8, which is a first for me with ENT.[/color ![]()

![]() Is the Xindi arc actually good? At the moment I'm kinda wavering as to keep watching or not, but I certainly will if it picks up in season 3.[/color ![]()
