The general plot goes that The Enterprise started have random system failures, they eventually found were being caused by a ship riding in their wake because they had some malfunction.
After some back and forth, Enterprise sends Tucker over to help fix things, and Tucker kinda sort of gets hot for the engineer lady that’s taking care of him. (apparently he’s into electric-eel-people who feed him jello-water.) At one point they went to a holodeck where she has him on a row boat with a sunset and whips out this “game” they play.
it’s ths bowl of glass marble looking things that they both put their hands in, that lets the other person read their mind.
After that, Tucker goes back to the Enterprise, only to find out that he’s got nipples growing on his wrist and the “game” was their version of sex. they have a short window of time to find them before the pregnancy can’t be transferred to someone else.
it’s pretty wild to just sex it up with random people you met that week. but also the lady completely took advantage of him, which was bad, her excuse was that she didn’t think they were genetically compatible enough to tell him they were having sex.
S1E5, “Unexpected”.

T’Pol was furious at him for it, too. That always struck me. Their relationship didn’t start until the 3rd season, but her reaction here is strong.
