Episode 15: Farewell The Tranquil Mind

**This episode comes with a warning**

Rated PG13: Parental guidance is recommended for children under 13. It contains adult themes and some mild horror.

Producers note: As the character of ‘Angela’ never appeared on any episodes of Enterprise, her image was hard to create. With this in mind, Farewell the Tranquil Mind has been altered, though the premise of the story remains the same.

We open with T’Pol taking a hot shower with plenty of steam, then two hands appear, touching her shoulder, it is Trip. She turns around and faces him then kisses him passionately. At that moment Trip says 'I'm so glad were together', they kiss again only to be interrupted by a female voice, it is Angela! 'May I Join' Angela asks, Trip says 'sure, the more the merrier', at this point T’Pol has a mortified look on her face. Angela stands next to Trip and they get close to T’Pol. 'My, we are going to have some fun, aren't we my dear' as she looks devilishly at T’Pol. As they advance towards T’Pol both Angela and Trips faces change in to that of hideous monsters, they lunge at T’Pol. T’Pol then wakes up, the victim of another bad dream, which is the third one this week she has had. At around the same time Trip has some disturbing dreams about T’Pol with baby Elizabeth.

It turns out most of the crew are having bad dreams. The whole crew in general seems to be very short tempered. Things seem to be in a downward spiral. Dr. Phlox determines that the crew is experiencing bad dreams and nightmares almost every night causing unstable brain chemistry.

It turns out that a non corporeal entity is triggering and feeding off the negative R.E.M. sleep of the crew. All attempts to get the alien off the ship fail. Phlox comes to the determination that if they starve the entity it will leave the ship. So Phlox administers a special drug to keep the whole crew awake as long as possible, they crew must also watch over each other and keep each other awake. A couple days go by and the entity is weakened but is still on the ship, how much longer can the crew go without sleep??

Reminder: This is PG so with the shower scene we won't be showing anything revealing even though all three have no clothes on.)

This episode about lack of sleep dedicated to Tim Brazeal

Episode Thirteen: Phlox-in-Law

Outline:

When the Enterprise visits Denobula to pick up some delegates, Phlox is surprised to find not one but all three sets of parent-in-laws (from his three wives), are also on board as the Enterprise heads to an important conference regarding trading for supplies. This ends up driving Phlox crazy and we find out how complex Denobulan relationships really are. The B story involves T’Pol needing a very minor surgery; she has to recover in sickbay for a few days. This means she is under the care of Nurse Vanson. T’Pol, is already somewhat jealous (well deep inside anyway), and as you might imagine things will be quite a bit tense between the two, and it does not help when Trip comes to visit T’Pol in sickbay and Angela must tolerate seeing the attention he gives T’Pol. There will be a C story about Malcolm finally dealing with Leroy's 'friendliness' and surprising finding some common ground between them.

Episode 12 - Ghosts of Salem Three

The crew tries to help investigate strange occurrences on the almost completed Salem Three. When life support systems start to shut down the crew must evacuate everyone to the Enterprise, Archer however becomes trapped.

After the starbase is abandoned (except for Archer) life support returns to normal and a massive shield (this is way beyond earth technology) envelopes the station preventing the Enterprise from getting through.

Archer must find out what is going on as mysterious robots appear and disappear, and the station seems to be transforming itself. We learn later that a very small mysterious probe had attached to the station. Archer learns that it is not aliens who are behind this but the intelligence that was controlling the 'Dead Stop' station (see Season 2).

Archer must find a way to destroy the station, and save himself in the process, before the technologically advanced station becomes a threat to the whole sector.
