A strange goopy alien sneaks on board.
To summarise the episode: T’Pol is kind of a jerk to Hoshi, Hoshi is a bit uncertain of herself. Most of the rest are stuck to a wall. Hoshi and T’Pol work together and the day is saved.
It’s flat and relatively dull writing, but enlivened by what is some fairly effective direction and camerawork. And there’s a showdown between Phlox and Reed that informs us quite well about their respective characters.
Callbacks: the first proper force field we’ve seen.
