Captain's Logs — Acquisition (2151)
from Captain's Logs
This week’s discussion is over Star Trek: Enterprise season 1 episode 18, Acquisition A sleeping ship, four visitors with magnificent ears, and a demand for a vault that does not exist: Enterprise is emptied locker by locker by Ferengi raiders who gassed the crew with a Trojan-horse artifact, and she is won back by the three people who happen to be awake — a chained captain selling shares in nothing, an engineer in his decon underwear, and a Vulcan who retakes sickbay by starting an argument about money. In this episode, Thara and Elias work through the whole ledger of the log: the gas device Trip imported in a box, Ulis and his electro-whip management style, Archer picking porter Krem like a lock, T'Pol's sickbay riot of bookkeeping, the ugly cargo-bay lining the comedy refuses to hide, and the greatest restitution scene in the early record — all of the loot, put back. Back at the archive desk, Records' Asset Recovery has stripped the reading room hunting a Vault 47 that turns out to hold eleven mugs and a chess set, and Elias settles it the Archer way: he talks to the porter. Verdicts: Elias 5 out of 10 Thara 7 out of 10. The vault 10 out of 10, for not existing.
