Book of Surak

[panyasan]

Does any one know in which episode T'Pol gives Archer a present, a book with Suraks teaching? Is that the same episode Archer says something about becoming friends?

[Alelou]

Two Days and Two Nights.

Don't know about the friends thing. I don't remember that.

[Silverbullet]

Two days and Two night is right.

Not one of my favorite episodes.

Don't recall Archer ever saying anything to T-Pol about becoming friends. I believe he assumed that they were friends.

I gag every time I think abut TDTN. Trip and Malcolm made to look like two jerks and providing comic relief.

I often wondered why t-Pol sent that book along when her sggestion had been to Trip and ARcher to get Laid. How is Archer to do that with his nose buried in a book.

I liked the calligraphy of her hand written note.

You see Archer reading a book in Two nights , but it wasn't T'Pol present! As we see in the Vulcan arc he hardly knows anything about Surak. Guess he didn't think a present from T'Pol was such a big deal.

You see Archer reading a book in Two nights , but it wasn't T'Pol present!

What was the title? "How to pick up vacationing Alien women for dummies!"

[WarpGirl]

Yeah well he didn't do that well either.

[Silverbullet]

He did meet one but she played him and knocked him out.

Funny thing that was never picked up again in the series.

[WarpGirl]

Yeah the whole thing just vanished. I guess they thought the Xindi were more interesting than the Suiliban and their war. I didn't think so. I loved the actor who played Silik.

[Silverbullet]

Never cared much for either the Sulliban or the Xindi. Although I could accept the sulliban a bit mmore easily than I could the Xindi.

I kept asking all sort of questions about them. HOw could Xindi look so different and act so diferfently.

HOw did the aquatics build thier ship and how did they fly them? Damn things would have been one big fishbowl. AQuatics had no hands just fllipers. couldn't use electricity inside of that fishbowl. One short and bam whole ship of dead aquatics.

Silliiban at lest were all one species.

Thanks everyone! Maybe we can use this thread to write our own book of Surak.
Has anyone got a good quote to start?

[Asso]

I, Surak, wrote that.
Do not elicit from it what it doesn't want to mean.

[WarpGirl]

Here's a personal Surakism... What is logical for one individual is the antithises of logic for another.

[Distracted]

"Do, or do not. There is no try."

Or, alternatively...

"Just do it" (insert Nike swoosh here)
