Season 2 » Episode #22 - Cogenitor

Summary: Archer is thrilled to be within ten light years of a hypergiant star. As the crew prepares to study the phenomenon, they make first contact with another species — the Vissians, who are also in the area to study the hypergiant. After the Vissian captain, Drennik, explains that meeting new species is one of their primary goals, Archer invites him and his crew onboard Enterprise for dinner. Once there, Drennik and Archer hit it off, and Drennik invites Archer to join him when he takes the Vissian stratopod deep into the hypergiant the following day. Archer enthusiastically accepts the invitation. Meanwhile, other crewmembers are mingling with the Vissians. Reed hits it off with a female Vissian tactical officer, while Trip meets the Vissian chief engineer and his wife. Trip is intrigued by a third individual the couple has with them, a member of the species' third gender known as a "cogenitor." The cogenitor is a nameless individual who somehow makes pregnancies among Vissians possible — the engineer and his wife are trying to have a baby.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

CHAR: After placing her last stone in the go-game, the cogenitor proposes that she has won. Although she does have a comfortable lead, as seen in the long shot, the game is clearly far from over yet and could still change considerably.

TRIVIA

The list of movies that Trip pulls up contains the title "Bride of Chaotica". This is the (fictional) science fiction B-movie that Tom Paris often re-enacts on the holodeck in "Star Trek: Voyager (1995)".
