Notes
- The second of a three ep arc which seems to set up the Romulan War that was referenced in prior Trek series (mostly TOS). As far as I can tell it’s not officially a three part story, but three episodes connected. It really does feel like a three parter, though.
- The last episode of any incarnation of Star Trek directed by Mike Vejar. All told, he directed 1 of TNG, 7 on DS9, 13 on VOY, and 10 on Enterprise for a total of 31 episodes.
- The first time we see the planet Andoria on screen in any incarnation of Trek.
- Trip Tucker requests a transfer off Enterprise to NX-02 Columbia.

find out why one of them was piloting the Romulan ship. We spend most of our time with the Aenar, which feels like an odd angle for "Pt3". The Romulan part of this is sidelined, almost an afterthought. But I did love the Aenar story here - great visuals. Trip goes rogue and wants an Xfer to NX-02.
