How were the Tholians involved?

I doubt we'll see them again with regards to this explanation. 2 times we've seen them on Trek history and big questions surround both. One of the largest threads hanging?

The whole war is a giant hanging thread. I still can't figure out how anyone remembers it or why the entire series wasn't changed as a result of it never happening.

Time travel gives me a headache. Wonky time science with massive temporal paradoxes gives me a migrane.

Sigh. The Temporal Cold War still happened. It was the "hot war" in "Storm Front" that didn't.

In the timeline "resetting" we see at the end of part 2, they showed events from the first three seasons of Enterprise, including the Xindi. They STILL HAPPENED!

But how could they have happened? If Vosk started the whole temporal cold war in Nazi Germany, then stopping him would have prevented the entire temporal cold war.

I can fully accept that this did not happen. I just don't see why it didn't.

Maybe I've forgotten too much of that episode. I'll have to check it out.

TUE

Vosk and Silik had history before "Storm Front". Vosk's actions in the episode started an all out war throughtout time. But his actions had nothing to do with the Tholians, the Suliban, Future guy, etc...

Can't tell you. Temporal Prime Directive.

Ewww. Are you quoting Voyager?!

Voyager has plenty of good lines despite anything else about the series...

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm receiving a number of distress calls...

I don't doubt it...

Dammit, Spock. That was my line!

This might seem dumb but... even though I watched every episode, and maybe I forgot, but did they ever say who Future Guy was?

Oh my God, brain cramp!!! I knew it was McCoy, and for whatever reason wrote Spock!!! Argh, I'm a fool! A FOOL!!!

May fortune favor the foolish.

No, Influx.

From what I recall, the Future Guy appeared to have the silhouette of having pointed ears. Could it have been a Romulan?

Time travel stories do give me a headache. I am glad to see this plot device gone, but it should have been better resolved. I'm glad to see the Suliban gone too.

Future Guy is Kim Jong-Il!!!!

Yeah, it was gone the next day

It was part of their April fools day jokes, and they said the FutureGuy was Kim Jong-Il.
