Tarquin

Story: Exile
Written By: Phyllis Strong
Series: Star Trek: Enterprise
Year: 2003

Hoshi is being contacted by someone telepathically. He gets Enterprise to come to him, and then offers them help against the Xindi, for the price of Hoshi staying with him. It is sort of like Phantom of Opera or Beauty and the Beast in a way...and it is weird. It is also fairly uninteresting.
I mean it could’ve been worse I guess, but I just didn’t particularly care about this weirdo. I could see what they were going for, but it just never made me want to stick around. The Enterprise B-plot is rather anti-captivating as well.

It does further the Xindi plot a bit, but it wasn’t a terribly thrilling episode getting there.
