Trek Geeks #194: The Andorian Incident

SAYING HELLO TO OLD FRENEMIES

A Vulcan Monastery on a planet that’s not on the star charts?

That’s what the crew of the NX-01 decides to visit and they soon discover that they’re not alone.

This week, we look at the Season 1 episode, “The Andorian Incident” from Star Trek: Enterprise! Airing on Halloween Night 2001, this episode brought back an alien species that we hadn’t seen since The Animated Series in the 1970’s–and they cast the incredible Jeffrey Combs (Weyoun, DS9) as the perfect foil for Captain Jonathan Archer!

We’ll dive in on this episode and talk about why the Vulcans are such jerks, and why this episode is fantastic despite that.

Plus, we’ll announce the winner of the FanSets AI pins and have your special discount code for fansets.com–all on The Flagship!

FIVE YEAR MISSION
