Spock was half human , maybe his senses weren't as acute. Also Spock had been part of Starfleet for many, many years. I think two episodes give us the possibility of something developing between T'Pol and Trip. -- Enterprise and All Things Trek

In reply to: PB 's message, "Did Spock ever mention that humans smell? I missed 2 episodes, so if there has been some Trip/T'Pol flirting I didn't see it.. The preview for the next new one had T'Pol in someone's arms but she may have been unconscious." on 21:15:48 01/03/02 Thu

The first one was when Trip gets himself pregnant. T'Pol then starts to rag on him about him keeping his hands where they belong and it took him 3 days, only 3 days, meanwhile she stood there looking at him for 10-15 without taking her eyes off him. She was either showing disappointment or distained for Trip. The second episode was when Trip intercepts a transmission to T'Pol from the Vulcan ship. It was about her going back to Vulcan to get married. She had no one to talk to about it. Trip suggested that she should. She chose Trip. Trip convince her to stay on the Enterprise by saying to her that it was her choice whether to stay or get married. But also told her that part of what she was doing here was learning about new cultures. That she should take advantage of what those new cultures had to offer. I suspect the main reason their relationship will develope is that T'Pol right now is alone on the ship. She needs to develope a relationship of some kind with someone. She really only has two choices base on herrank, Archer or Tucker. Simnce Archer is the captain that sort of rules him out because captains don't get involve with members of their crew. That only leaves Tucker. I think all we will see is a good friendship developing the first few years. Other Startrek shows haven't had much love relationships to the last couple of seasons.

[> [> [> [> [> Isn't the sense of smell thing also something about T'Pol being female? You poor thing, having missed "Breaking the Ice". It's probably my favourite episode (Unexpected comes in a close second!). I was so disappointed when I heard that UPN is going to re-run "Broken Bow" (which I already have on tape) instead of that one. -- Emily H., 16:42:49 01/05/02 Sat

[> [> [> [> [> [> No, one of the vulcan males asked her how she stand the smell. She said you get use it. She also has somethind that numbs her sense of smell. But what was interesting is when Archer offer her half the blanket she said she would rather be cold then smell him. I guess getting use to the smell refers to Tucker. -- talon, 00:14:22 01/06/02 Sun

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> This Wed. our UPN is showing a Tennessee vs. someone basket ball game instead of Enterprise. I don't want to miss a re-run of "Breaking the Ice" or a new ep for basketball. So other stations are showing a re-run of "Boken Bow" this Wednesday? -- PB, 10:32:04 01/07/02 Mon
