Story: The Augments
Written By: Michael Sussman
Series: Star Trek: Enterprise
Year: 2004
And it falls apart. For some reason the conclusion to this three-part story is so much weaker than its previous installments. The augments were not the best bunch of actors in those episode, but for some reason they were used just enough that they didn’t really grate on you…but this time around they have too many lines and too much to do…and you start to hate having to listen to them.
Mostly though, the problem is pacing. The other two episodes moved well, but this one feels so padded with junk that you sort of feel like it should have been condensed into a two-parter.
It is a shame, because up until this final part, I rather enjoyed this story.
