Dead Stop
"Dead Stop" is the thirtieth episode (production #204) of the science fiction television series ''Star Trek: Enterprise'', the fourth of the second season. It was directed by '' Star Trek: Voyager'' cast member Roxann Dawson.

The episode won an award from the Visual Effects Society, and was also nominated for an Emmy award. Plot Four days after getting caught in a ''Minefield'', Captain Archer and Commander Tucker inspect the damage to the ship. As the damage would take months to repair, and returning to Jupiter Station would take years, Archer decides that it is time for someone to help them out for once, and orders Ensign Sato to send a general distress call.
