Star Trek: Enterprise - 02x18 The Crossing

Summary: Enterprise encounters a large, otherworldly vessel unlike any the crew has seen before. They try to make contact with it, but to no avail. Suddenly, a large portal opens and the ship "swallows" Enterprise, rendering its weapons and engines useless. Luckily, life support is still operational. Archer, Trip and Reed take a shuttlepod into the cavernous ship for further exploration. Although there doesn't seem to be any immediate threat to Enterprise, Trip is suddenly attacked by a colorful wisp of smoke that seems to invade his body for a few seconds before releasing him. Back in Sickbay, Trip insists that he's fine. He explains that during his brief encounter with the alien wisp, he had an out-of-body experience and believed he was in Florida and visiting an old girlfriend.

Lieutenant Malcolm Reed: Captain, look at this - the atmosphere is changing: 76% nitrogen, 21% oxygen.
Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III: Somebody seems to know what we'd like to breath.

Season 2 / Episode 18: - The Crossing

Captain Jonathan Archer: Where do you come from?
Alien in Tucker's body: We live in subspace. We travel through it... We're explorers, like you.
Captain Jonathan Archer: Why did you take Commander Tucker?
Alien in Tucker's body: It's been a long time since we've encountered corporeal beings. After we performed the first crossing with your commander, we realized we were compatible. You're very interesting - trapped in bodies that need maintenance... You have gender; you require mates to reproduce... You eat...food! We were like you once. But we evolved. Now we can learn how our ancestors lived.
