Enterprise: Detained, Vox Sola

Detained started out with two strikes against it in my eyes. I don't like "prison" episodes, and I don't like the Suliban. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this episode. It did a nice job a drawing a parallel with the Japenese internment camps of WWII, and was surprisingly open about the historical lesson it was trying to teach instead of being coy.

Vox Sola concerns an alien presence which takes over cargo Bay 2, and 5 of the crew. there is also the matter of a misunderstanding between the Kreetassans and the Enterprise crew, concerning the human's shameful mating like behaviour of eating in public ( makes you wonder...) surprisingly, all the red shirts survive.
