Broken Bow is the premiere episode of Star Trek: Enterprise. We start with a crash of a space ship in a cornfield, followed by a chase involving a Klingon, unknown aliens, and a farmer with a phase rifle "Clem, there's aliens in the corn again!" All the main characters are introduced in this episode, although it is Captain Jonathon Archer we get to see in the most depth, including flashbacks to his childhood. The tone for the political relationship between the humans and the Vulcans is set early in the episode, with intimations that the Vulcans are not yet as logically evolved as they will be by Kirk's time.
The second episode, Fight or Flight, has the crew of the Enterprise searching for something interesting to explore. The concept is reiterated, as it had been mention in the first episode, that space is big (say it with me ..."Space is big, really really big, you just don't realize how incredibly vast space is...I mean, you might think its a long way down the road to the drugstore, but that's just peanuts to space.) they come across a ship where one set of mysterious aliens has been murdered by another set of mysterious aliens, and Hoshi saves the day with her mad translating skilz. All in all I found it a dull episode.
