Tonight Enterprise glued together a fairly good action sequence re: Death Star with a hokey take on Beauty & the Beast / Bluebeard's Castle that recalled the original Star Trek third season. Was this the Halloween episode? The writers can't seem to find a decent context for Hoshi. With sexy T'pol monopolizing oriental inscrutability, Hoshi comes across more like the dull high school salutatorian who never had a social life.
Heard from Alice, very brief note first time in six weeks, after sending her this Hogarth painting - she has a pug. I don't think of Alice as one who got away; rather, as one who was never really here. All the natural attraction for naught, the difference between a man wanting to follow his emotions & a woman distrustful of her own. If one's experiences give reason, then one is better off trusting the distrust.
