Death and Remembrance in "These Are The Voyages"? - Finale Rumor Mill Spinning Fast (SPOILERS)

Features

By GustavoLeao / 12:54, 2 March 2005 / Enterprise

Several rumors about the STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE series finale have appeared today on the net, rumors that TrekWeb has been unable to officially confirm or deny. However, we have been able to ascertain to our satisfaction that a portion of the below information may accurately describe some of the episode's plot.

The rumors, surfacing at TrekBBS, go something like this: 'Trip Tucker' dies at the end of the episode purportedly titled "These Are The Voyages". The death occurs in a holographic program on the holodeck of the U.S.S. Enterprise-D, which 'Commander Riker' and 'Deanna Troi' are observing, according to the speculation. If true, the rumors suggest that the episode may largely take place in what turns out to be a holographic representation of historical events, viewed from the perspective of Riker and Troi at some point in the 24th century.

This would mesh with Manny Coto's claim that the final episode, penned by Rick Berman and Brannon Braga, would not involve time travel. Jonathan Frakes previously confirmed at a convention that he and Marina Sirtis indeed appear in the final episode, which will air on UPN May 13th at 9 PM.

This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.

This upcoming season will include some special guest stars, including Brandon Routh of "Superman Returns" who will play CIA agent Daniel Shaw in an episode, and the addition of SUBWAY restaurant as a major advertiser to the show.

STAR TREK VOYAGER's Robert Duncan McNeill serves Chuck as a supervising producer and director.0

You are absolutely right --I've only been able to read bits of exactly what they are trying to do in the finale', and, if it is simply that the show never existed except as some hologram fantasy, it is, indeed a middle finger to all the fans who have stood by the various incarnations of the shows over the past 17 years. If it is simply that they are re-watching a reconstruction of historical events in the "future," I will reserve judgement, but think that the premise is without merit. Let's see how it is *executed* before reserving judgement. No, Berman and Bragga have had no respect or understanding for the original, and anyone seeking to cash in on the sucess of "First Contact" by creating a prequel, and not consulting with and using the ideas of Star Trek novel writers from the get-go, respecting the written cannon of the mythology, and tapping into that mythology, and seeking out true science fiction writers as the origianl show did, were only asking for trouble. Star Trek needs someone like Manny Cotto and Ronald D. Moore to take over the reigns and breath new life into this sorry old franchise. Whether or not the fans (and I am one of them) manage to keep the show alive for a few more years, once it is done, Paramont needs to give it a few years rest, and let others take the helm, if they ever hope to resussitate it.
