Fix Enterprise "canon" with a drabble challenge
Posted: Mon Aug 01, 2011 5:51 am
OK, here's the challenge - fix anything you didn't like (up to and including the whole show) in Enterprise in a drabble (or something of similar length, or shorter or longer, as you like) using the most outrageous TV writing cliches you can. These include but are not limited to:
It was all a dream
Time travel reset button
Q
Holodeck
If you can think up some other ridiculous cliches, please post them it may inspire others.
I'll start it off with my "Dallas" ending to Enterprise:
Snorpenbass is on the hook to provide his "authentic" Dallas ending including the shower.

I'll start it off with my "Dallas" ending to Enterprise:
(Sorry, I didn't count the words so I'm not sure if this is a real drabble or not).Charles "Trip" Tucker the 3rd woke up, slightly disoriented.
His wife, as always an early riser, was seated in a chair near the window, reviewing a document from the Vulcan Science Academy.
"That was the damndest dream ever!" said Trip.
"Would you care to discuss it?" asked T'Pol.
"We can talk about it on the way to the meeting. Long story short, you and I were on the NX-01 Enterprise. You were the Science Officer and I was the Chief Engineer. And then, at the end, there was this weird bit with people from Picard's Enterprise, the 1701-D."
"Indeed. I warned you about overindulging in Mexican food last night."
"You're right, you're always right. I gotta get ready. We're supposed to meet with Daniels in an hour."
And so began another day in the 31st century.
