I voted for First Flight, as I see there was real devotion to one another in the scenes in the shuttle.

I have to agree that a strong bond of friendship was evident in this episode. However I'm all about the funky little moments.
When T'Pol went to sickbay after Archer was presumed dead and petted Porthos, that to me, shows the depth of her friendship. She comforted his smelly dog.

I goofed and didn't add an "other" option BT - so now it's there and you can vote!

Since there was no option for other, I already voted for First Flight. I will stand by that and just extend an honorable mention for Zero Hour and T'Pol petting Porthos :D

I voted for "Shadows of P'Jem." The part where they were tied up together was funny but dumb. The reason I voted for it though, was because it was the first time we see Archer really fight for T'Pol. She seemed to bug him so much up to that point, that it interested me to see Archer realize he wants to keep her.

The first season, they chem tested T'Pol with pretty much everyone. Trip in Broken Bow, Malcolm in Shuttlepod One - and Shadows of P'Jem was definitely the episode where they tested to see if she sparked with Archer.

Not only does it have the whole screwball adventure of them being tied up, Archer does realize he needs her and sticks up for her to the Vulcans.

And a big :welcome to you, BrandyJane! :)

Thanks, Honeybee! I love the idea behind this site. While I am now definitely a TnT shipper, I like Archer and I went through a pretty hardcore Archer/T'Pol phase back in the day. I can totally see why a lot of people like this 'ship.

You ought to check out Mistress Euclid's forum - she writes Archer, T'Pol and Trip in a menage a trois because she could never decide. Funny thing, she's not the first writer to do it. There were others before her!

This reminds me, Aquarius and I decided to make an A/T story our fic of the day. I need to go tweet that!

I voted with Brandyjane on the "Shadows of P'Jem" episode. It was actually touching how badly Archer wanted to fight for her. I think it was the first time, for me, I got a sense that he really believed he'd be lost without her.
