Well, it turns out that the party pooping Vulcan adherence to proper procedure when discovering a planet is a good idea. I let out a good belly laugh when Archer brought his beagle onto the alien planet and seemed like a proud father when the dog urinated on a tree.
This episode falls into the suspense category but the question of whether T'Pol was up to something nefarious fell a bit flat for me. Tripp was convincing as being a complete lunatic and is currently neck and neck with Archer as the most emotionally charged human on the enterprise.
This episode further strengthens the need for earth to have a Vulcan babysitter. At this point in the series I am viewing humanity as a rebellious teenager and Vulcan as the concerned parent allowing the kid to go through the paces of growing up ----- getting a tattoo, piercings, pretending to like punk rock.
