Star Trek: Enterprise - 01x08 Breaking the Ice

Summary: The Enterprise crew is thrilled to encounter the biggest comet humans have ever seen, one that's 82.6 kilometers in diameter with a spectacular tail. Learning the comet contains large quantities of eisilium, an extremely rare mineral, Captain Archer dispatches Lt. Reed and Ensign Mayweather to take a little "comet-walk" with a drilling rig to collect samples. As they prepare for their mission, a Vulcan starship, the Ti'Mur, approaches unannounced. Archer hails the ship, and its captain, Vanik, informs him they are not there to investigate the comet, but rather to investigate Enterprise's interest in the comet. Although irked, Archer gracefully invites Vanik to stay and watch, but then he pulls T'Pol aside to find out what they're "really" doing here. T'Pol has no answers.

Episode Quotes

	Season 1 / Episode 8: - Breaking the Ice Captain Jonathan Archer: I'm sure you're eager to get back to your ship, so I'll trouble you with just one last question: how long do you plan on spying on us? Vulcan Captain Vanik: If we were... "spying", Captain, you would have never detected our presence. Your inexperience and your arrogance are your enemies, not us.
	Season 1 / Episode 8: - Breaking the Ice Captain Jonathan Archer: Dinner's a good way to break the ice. I was hoping you might give Chef some menu suggestions. Sub-Commander T'Pol: Certainly. Captain Jonathan Archer: A little food, a little wine... Sub-Commander T'Pol: Vulcans don't drink wine. Captain Jonathan Archer: You know what I mean. Just help me make him go away.
