Notes

• The tenth of eleven episodes of Enterprise directed by Allan Kroeker.
• Only the third time we’ve seen Orion Slave girls in Trek overall (despite the Orions having other appearances).  The two were the OG pilot (all hail Susan Oliver) and the TOS episode “Whom Gods Destroy” (all hail Yvonne Craig).
• There is a callback to a TOS episode “This Side of Paradise” when T’Pol mentions the same planet and flying race that Spock mentioned in the former episode.
• The “unknown ship” is really a model re-used from the episode “Fortunate Son“.
• The second of four appearances as Kelby by Derek Magyar
• The primary male Orion (Harrad-Sar) is played by William Lucking.  He was also Furel in two DS9 episodes (“The Darkness & the Light” and “Ties of Blood and Water“.
• One of the Orion Slave girls (Navaar) was played by Cyia Batten.  She was previously Irina in Voyager’s “Drive” as well as Tora Ziyal in the DS9 episodes “Indiscretion” and “Return to Grace“.
• Tucker puts in for a transfer back to USS Enterprise in this episode.
