Maybe the owners can find them and would be really, really pissed.
Maybe the sphere is supressing the anomalies.
Well that’s just it, they are passing along second hand stories just to scare the humans. It seems to me, in my Star Trek memories, that Vulcans seem to lose control over their emotions at the drop of a chemical hat; I wouldn’t be all that shocked by the “crazy ship” of Vulcans 
Agreement on the sphere plundering, btw.
So what you’re saying is, the Expanse triggers Pon-Farr?
“We are seeking approval from the Vulcan Science Directorate to travel to the Expanse to, uh, conduct research. Very important research. Entirely logical and scientific research, of course.”

We can only hope, tracer. It might become quite the honeymoon spot.

Lose emotion now! Ask me how.
Hot young 80 yr old Vulcan women want you now! (All of our models are at least 80 but no older than 110)

It’s not a character; it’s a verb: see?
Everything in slash is a verb at one time or another.
A verb is an action word, right?
Oh.
OH!
Anybody’s username can be a verb:
Somebody viva’d my post and found all the errors in it.
He Cervaise’d at length about a number of problems and issues.
She would love to NoClueBoy her posts and fill them with irrelevant fun.
A bit late, but this is for Aes, who had a hopskippyjumpy tape, and for anyone else who missed the premiere:
Great link. Is this a weekly article? If so, I have to bookmark it. Some of those lines had me laughing out loud.
That’s hilarious, viva! Thanks for the link!
I’m reading the one about Minefield now. They have Malcolm down pat… hilarious.
Brilliant.
Five minute Enterprise (related to Five minute Voyager, etc.) is a great site. Too bad they’re slow when it comes to updating. I think their last recap was “The Breach” from season 2, and they missed all the episodes after that one.
It is dead on, though, isn’t it?
Aes, your tape went out on Sat. a.m.
Please note: Mr. B’s carefully-planned taping scheme was thwarted on Wednesday. Am catching rebroadcast.
Also, to Trip: you’re one phase rifle-dodging, improvised-polarizing, Osaarian-fighting, leech-avoiding, bromide-spewing sonofawhat. I raise my lukewarm Rebel Yell to you!
Here’s what I hope. I hope that what we’re seeing is the beginning of Archer’s transformation into Captain Ahab. (Or Matt Decker, if you will – or the John Savage character from that Voyager two-parter where they used aliens for fuel.) He’s running around, with no consequences to his hideous actions (as kingpegvin notes). What if he does go off the deep end? What if he does go too far? That would be cool. We’re already seeing some of his officers questioning his actions (Malcolm in particular). Phlox hasn’t seen much of what’s gone on in the last two episodes, but I don’t see him lying down if he learns that Archer is planning to torture a couple more suspects. If Archer continues in this fashion for much longer, I don’t the writers are just going to say that this behavior is acceptable. If they have any skill at all, Archer’s crusade is going to end up costing Enterprise big.
(Actually, they’d probably screw it up by redeeming him, but a boy can dream, can’t he?)

Maybe he was putting a scar into the alien. Maybe he was particularly anxious about their situation.
Maybe he’s pissed 'cause he can’t leap home. 
That alien already had enough scars.
