Following a link from [here,](http://www.trektoday.com/news/030405_03.shtml) I find a very disappointing [Vulcan/Human baby pic.](http://www.startrekuk.com/missions/images/ENT/ENTepi097c.jpg)

No detail shown, drat it all.  
Peter Weller being in the final story arc as a Terrist (pro Earth terrorist), makes me yearn for the line to be said to him, “Not my damn planet, monkey boy!” I find it strangely fitting that Buckaroo Banzai will finally be in a Trek episode, considering all the BB inside jokes in TNG.

What ya bet that Majel’s voice gets used in the Riker/Troi holodeck scenes as computer voice? That would make Majel involved (either voice or as a guest star) in every form of Trek there is; movies, series, and animation.

Sorry, Cliffy. The Vulcan/Human baby news has been around for several months now in Trek circles. I’ll ask a mod to change the title.  
ENT Final Arc Spoilers would be a good title.

Sorry to hijack, but has the holodeck rumor been substantiated, or is it a parting shot from disgruntled fans?

[Trek Today says they got it from UPN](http://www.trektoday.com/news/240305_01.shtml)

They are usually spot on with their spoilers at TrekToday, btw.

FWIW, most of us rabid Trek Dopers don’t think anything in a Trek thread is a hijack, as long as it’s about Trek.

Well, no vacation here, but I still have to catch up with many episodes this season. I’ve been taping them, but have a big backlog on watching them…

Wanna see something gross?

Check out Mirror T’Pol’s bare belly. For some reason it just makes me sick:

And here is half-burned Mirror Trip’s face:

Phlox is going to be one scary bastard in those eps.

That _IS_ a wire-frame image of NCC-1701 (no bloody A, B, C or D!) on the screen behind T’Pol in that first image, isn’t it?

I think so. I haven’t read every detail on that ep. I know the **Defiant** is involved in some way, also.

From what I read, it’s actually most likely a wireframe image of the Defiant.

Except that the wireframe looks nothing like the Defiant (unless you’re referring to some non-DS9 Defiant) and everything like NCC-1701.

The Defiant from the Tholian Web episode of TOS.

Well, baseball is steamrolling over that episode 'round these parts, so “Bound” won’t be aired until midnight or maybe 12:30am.

Figures.

How many more new episodes are there, and when is the last one? Are the remaining episodes all part of the arc mentioned in the OP?

I see that they’re returning to their roots and attempting to go out with as much Panda as possible.

**John Mace** , according the preview for _Bound_, there are 6 episodes left.

Hi everyone.
