Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe fact that the secondary bridge was left in the catwalk after The Catwalk (2002) may demonstrate the original Starfleet concept of a battle bridge or Auxiliary Control Center.
- GoofsThere are several inconsistencies with whether or not the aliens gain knowledge of their hosts. They seem to be aware of many things that they would have no way of knowing without acquiring their hosts' knowledge (e.g. Reed thinks that T'pol is the most attractive female) but not others (e.g. that the female crewman was female).
- Quotes
Captain Jonathan Archer: You're taking over my crew! Why?
Alien in Sato's body: I understand how you may be frightened by all this - losing your substance, existing as perceptive energy. But you'll be grateful, once you've made the crossing, I promise you.
Captain Jonathan Archer: We're kind of fond of our substance. We're not very anxious to give it up!

Featured review
Same story, different day.... pretty but vacant
Special effects are the highlight of this recycling of the energy-beings-from-another-dimension-take-over-the-crew plot. Enterprise is engulfed in a larger, faster ship, and members of the crew are temporarily possessed by some pretty aquamarine clouds of light. While they are possessed, they dream vividly about their homes and other fantasies, leading members of the Enterprise crew to wonder what these creatures really want. All seems promising up to this point although the dialog isn't even up to Enterprise's standards. However, the story takes a nose dive into the usual plot devices, and relies on an absurdly inconsistent portrayal of Captain Archer's approach toward alien cultures in its conclusion.
