“Damage” 20th-anniversary reflections
When we last saw the Enterprise, it was riddled with holes and crewmembers were flying out into space. Five are confirmed dead and a dozen are wounded. With the ship limited to impulse, Archer finds himself in a do-or-die situation that pushes him to betray his ethics and steal the warp coil from friendly aliens who asked for help. Meanwhile, the Xindi council bickers over the truth about their weapons project and the human threat. They are also paid a visit by a Sphere Builder.
In this episode of Warp Five, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 20th-anniversary retrospective that takes you through all of Star Trek: Enterprise, one episode at a time. In this installment, we continue Season 3 with “Damage” as we discuss the pressure and hard choices facing Archer, T'Pol's breakdown, the Sphere Builders, and more.
