Our Man Bashir - DS9 I never really liked this character.
ENT- Minefield
Two moments that struck me:
<Archer and Reed are on the hull deck, disarming that mine>
ARCHER: So, where were we?
REED: Sir?
ARCHER: This morning, at breakfast, before we were interrupted. You said you didn't follow any particular sport.
REED: Well, I'm afraid I haven't started following one since breakfast, sir.
Also:
REED: <...> Start with the topmost component. Use the caliper to lift it a few millimetres and then turn it clockwise three hundred and sixty degrees, and then gently reinsert it. <...>
<Archer is then seen merrily turning that component counterclockwise >
... I suppose they were just really lucky, especially after that earlier Reed warning that disarming a mine was 'extremely delicate business'![]()
Ent- Dead Stop
Wondering now if that was meant as a metaphor for some of the megacorporation chains we have today. Some of them give great service at a low price, but it may cost some of the soul of your local community...
... naah, that's probably just nonsense![]()
Gentle reminder...discussion/reviews/questions should go in the home forum of the show. I'm sure there's an Enterprise rewatch thread or some such thing.
