One of the more exciting episodes of this series that I've seen so far. Captain Archer and Engineer Tucker are arrested for smuggling when returning from a new encountered planet. Thrown onto a transport bound for a penal colony, they have seemingly dropped through the cracks. As the Enterprise figures out what has happened and then pursues the transport to free them, a couple of prisoners stage a mutiny and take the ship. In order to stay alive, Archer and Tucker pretend to go along and be criminals themselves. Things get dicy as the ships of the law and order crowd pursue them.
It all climaxes in a very good fight between good and bad on a rockin' and rollin' ship headed for doom on the planet beneath.
I often appraise episodes as what they would have been like if expanded to full length movies. This is one episode I would like to have seen done so.
