Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer -- with special guest, Robert Duncan McNeill -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "The Breach".

There are two breaches to be explored in this episode: one planetary, one familial. In our A plot, intrepid spelunkers Trip, Malcolm, and Travis go to save an (ungrateful tbh) Denobulan science team from a planet with unstable politics, to say nothing of the geology. The Denobulan history is explored even further on the ship when Phlox is tasked with saving the life of an Andoran, with whom their species has a terrible and bloody history.

Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Horizon".

It's Travis's turn to be the star of the episode, but we only wish it were under better circumstances. Family tensions are high on the Horizon, and his brother doesn't much like the idea of Travis bringing his newfangled Starfleet ideas to their old cargo ship. Ok boomer! Meanwhile, T'Pol tries really, really hard to get out of watching a film, in a B-plot that's still trying to get her and Archer a bit closer...

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating -- and special guest, director James L. Conway -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Judgment".
 
Archer's arrest by the Klingons brings him face to face with Kolos, played by Deep Space Nine veteran ... J.G. Hertzler! This is Enterprise's homage to Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, so if you guess what happens at the end, it just means you're an OG fan. At least no one gets kicked in the knee-genitals this time.

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating -- and special guest, director David Livingston -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "The Crossing".

Enterprise gets swallowed whole by a massive alien ship whose incorporeal inhabitants start taking the crew for joyrides. Wisp-Malcolm is on the prowl for a meaningful experience, while Wisp-Trip gets the best meal of his life. Time is ticking until First Contact becomes First Assimilation!

Dominic - odd numbered episodes Connor - even numbered episodes
Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Canamar".
Trip and Archer learn that getting arrested is easy, getting un-arrested is surprisingly difficult, and prison jumpsuits really aren't anyone's color. It's Canamar: Con Air in space (minus the Nic Cage hair)!

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Future Tense".

The Tholians, the Suliban, and the Enterprise duke it out over a bigger-on-the-inside piece of Temporal Cold War tech, containing a really long ladder and one (1) dead boi. It's Groundhog Day in the D-Con Chamber... in more ways than one!

Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer -- and special guest, Mr. Jeff Combs himself -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Cease Fire".

We're so lucky to have Jeff in for this Shran-centric episode, where the groundwork is laid for the special and enduring relationship between Shran and Archer. We come across the Andorians in a territorial dispute with the Vulcans, which escalates to the point that Shran calls upon his Captain buddy to negotiate a truce. But when Archer's shuttle is shot down with Ambassador Soval inside, the fingers are pointed every which way while the wounded away team negotiates the hostile war zone.

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating -- and special guest, director David Livingston -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Stigma".  

It's an early 2000s ambitious AIDS allegory centered on T'Pol, who is facing ostracization from the Vulcan High Command after contracting Pa'nar Syndrome, a neurological condition transmitted solely by a stigmatized minority: those who can mind meld. We follow Archer and Phlox as they fight against systemic prejudice to protect T'Pol's position on the ship. Humanity once again proves itself more tolerant than the Vulcans... *sips tea*

Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Dawn". 

Or as we're calling it: Darmok Part II: Electric Boogaloo!

After crash-landing on a freezing planet with an alien who wants him dead, Trip is forced into the world’s angriest survival camping trip. Somewhere between the hypothermia, mutual hatred, and inability to communicate, the two slowly stumble toward understanding, proving once again that Star Trek loves putting people in life-threatening situations to teach them tolerance.
