Synopsis
After decades of being held back from deep space exploration by the Vulcans, the human race makes its first venture into interstellar travel with Captain Jonathan Archer at the helm of the Enterprise NX-01, Earth Starfleet’s first Warp 5 vessel. The crew’s mission is to return an injured Klingon — the first the human race has ever encountered — to his people on Qo’noS. But when a villainous race of aliens called the Suliban kidnap the Klingon, Archer and his crew must make an unexpected detour into another world to retrieve their precious cargo — and stave off a dangerous diplomatic interstellar crisis.

Notes
The Suliban Cabal are a renegade faction of Suliban that has been genetically altered by the “Humanoid Figure”, a 29th century figure who gives them orders as part of a Temporal Cold War.
Mayweather, the helmsman, is a space boomer, raised on a cargo ship.
Hoshi, on leave from Starfleet teaching linguistics in Brazil, was recalled 3 weeks early by Archer to function as comm officer.
Phlox was participating in the Interspecies Medical Exchange; Archer recruited him because he was familiar with Klingon anatomy.
This is the first appearance of the controversial decontamination chamber. In their underwear, Trip and T’Pol, spread bio gel on each other.
This is the first use of the grappler — a tow cable with a claw on the end.
The transporter was just approved for transportation of bio-matter, but had not been tested with humans yet. The first human test was Archer — beamed out of the Suliban helix at the last second.
The crew is given new hand-held weapons, phase pistols, before they leave Earth.
At the Enterprise launch ceremony, Zefram Cochrane is shown on video giving his famous speech: “We’ll be able to explore those strange new worlds, and seek out new life and new civilizations. This engine will let us go boldly where no man has gone before.”
The three Starfleet Command officers who give Archer his first mission — Admiral Forrest, Admiral Leonard, and Cmdr. Williams — are named for the Original Series regulars DeForest Kelley, Leonard Nimoy, and William Shatner.

Guest Cast
Erick Avari (Jamin)
Mary Carver (Nadet/Bernadette Fuller)
Brian Jacobs (Athan)
Greville Henwood (Akary)

Notes
Terra Nova was dubbed the “Great Experiment”, a deep space human colony. It took the S.S. Conestoga 9 years to get there. The ship was dismatled and used to build the colony’s structures. Terra Nova was founded after other off-world colonies: New Berlin on Luna (the moon), Utopia Planitia on Mars, and a handful of colonies on asteroids. It was assumed that disagreements over sending additional colonists caused Terra Nova to cut off contact with Earth 70 years ago. Actually, an asteroid collision on the northern hemisphere caused a radioactive cloud. The Novans thought it was an attack by the humans. Only the young children survived.
Enterprise relocates the Novans to the southern hemisphere.

Synopsis
As Enterprise ventures deeper into the Expanse, the ship is rocked by inexplicable, destructive spatial anomalies that distort the laws of physics.

The Osaarian pirates hide the stolen goods inside a huge sphere, which is surrounded by a cloaking field that generates the spatial anomalies.
To get information from Orgoth, Archer throws him into an airlock and begins decompressing it until Orgoth finally gives up information. The Osaarians recently attacked a Xindi ship and stole supplies and a copy of their database. Using the access code, Hoshi downloads a copy of the Xindi database from the Osaarian ship.

The asteroids are rich in Trellium ore. Phlox discovers Trellium-D is a neuro-toxin to the Vulcan nervous system and causes them to lose control of their emotions. Archer has Tucker store it in a biohazard locker until Phlox can create a cure for T’Pol.
T’Pol previously served on the Seleya, which entered the Expanse nine months ago. The Vaankara was sent on a rescue mission, as seen in “The Expanse”.
The Seleya is named for Mount Seleya on planet Vulcan. (Spock was joined with his katra on Mount Seleya in Star Trek III.)

In the alternate timeline, Starfleet gave T’Pol a field promotion to Captain. After destroying Earth, the Xindi hunted down the remaining human colonies. Less than 6000 humans remained. They settled on Ceti Alpha V. (Unfortunately, Ceti Alpha V will be destroyed later as seen in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan).

In this timeline, Xindi as well as Klingons are part of the Federation. Daniels tries to convince Archer not to sacrifice himself in destroying the weapon, since he is necessary for humanity’s survival as well as the creation of the Federation.

Admiral Forrest dies saving Ambassador Soval. 43 people died in total (12 Vulcans and 31 Humans).
The evidence points to the Syrannites, a small group of Vulcans who follow a “corrupted” form of Surak’s teachings. DNA from a known Syrannite named T’Pau is found, but Phlox discovers that it was planted.
Soval becomes an ally to the crew, and begins working with the crew to discover what happened. He mind melds with the comatose guard and discovers that Stel planted the bomb in the Embassy.
Koss delivers an IDIC pendant to T’Pol, and informs her that her mother T’Les is a Syrannite and that she has disappeared. The pendant gives them directions to find her.

The Syrannites follow the true teaches of Surok, the founder of Vulcan society. Arev, who died in the previous episode, was actually Syran, the leader of the Syrannites. Syran carried the katra of Surok. Before he died, he transferred the katra to Archer.
T’Pol’s mother T’Les dies in the attacks on the Syrrannites.
Dr. Phlox does not appear in this episode.

Notes
Part 3 of 3.
V’Las has convinced the Vulcan High Command that Andoria has Xindi technology and uses this fear to launch an invasion of Andoria. He is relieved of his duties for treason. This episode begins the turning point in Vulcan history when Vulcans begin their journey from the devious Vulcans of the Star Trek: Enterprise era to the species seen in the Original Series era and beyond.
T’Pau melds with T’Pol and cures her Pa’nar Syndrome (diagnosed in “Stigma”). According to T’Pau, it is caused by inexperienced melders and can be cured by a meld with an experienced melder. The Vulcan High Command created the stigma to discredit the Syrannites among the Vulcan people.
The final scene shows V’Las meeting with a Romulan, who denies him an escape and leaving re-unification for another time (see TNG two-part episode “Unification”).

Scott Allen Rinker (Gareb)

Notes
Part 3 of 3.
Trip’s feelings for T’Pol seem to be overwhelming him. In the end, Trip requests a transfer to the Columbia. Archer agrees.
This is the first visit to the icy world of Andoria, a small planet which orbits a large, ringed gas giant. Andorian cities are built underground to take advantage of geo-thermal energy. During a “heat-wave,” the surface temperature may be above freezing for several weeks. When Archer and Shran beam down, it is 28 degrees below 0 — the middle of summer.
The Aenar (pronounced “EE-nar”) are an Andorian subspecies. Very few Andorians have seen an Aenar. They are blind, ice-dwelling, non-violent isolationists who live in the northern wastes. They have pale, white skin, but are otherwise similar in appearance to the blue-skinned Andorians. They are highly telepathic, but do not believe in reading other’s thoughts without permission.
Jhamel agrees to help Archer and Shran to save her brother Gareb. Jhamel convinces Gareb to stop the attack, but Valdore kills Gareb.

Archer walks T’Pol through her mind meld with Hoshi.
After Reed is caught in a lie and erases the Rigellian black box, Archer relieves him from duty and throws him in the brig pending court-martial.

Synopsis
With the help of Captain Hernandez, Trip and the newly-launched starship Columbia, Archer pursues the kidnapped Phlox deep into Klingon territory, as Phlox decides to cooperate with finding a cure to a virus ravaging a Klingon outpost.

Synopsis
After Archer forges a deal with the Orions, the trader presents the captain with a gift — three alluring Orion women who proceed to seduce all the men on board except, mysteriously, Trip.

Guest Cast

Cyia Batten (Navaar)
Derek Magyar (Commander Kelby)
Crystal Allen (D’Nesh)
Menina Fortunato (Maras)
Christopher Jewett (Crewman #1)
Duncan K. Fraser (Crewman #2)

Notes
We learn that Orion women are the ones who are in control — the men are slaves to their bidding.
The Orion women emit a pheromone which affects the entire crew, except for T’Pol, whose Vulcan physiology is immune. The pheromone causes headaches in the women and it causes Phlox to become tired. T’Pol’s mating bond with Trip renders him immune as well.
T’Pol finally admits her feelings for Trip, who tells her that he already asked Captain Hernandez for a transfer back to Enterprise.
Kelby had problems getting along with Trip early on because he feels that Trip’s presence on Enterprise threatened his promotion. Apparently he was right because Trip does indeed call Kelby “Lieutenant” instead of “Commander” and then later reveals that he requested a transfer back to Enterprise.

Synopsis
In an alternate universe, an amoral, imperialistic version of the Enterprise crew, led by Captain Forrest with Archer as his treacherous first officer, makes an astonishing discovery during a mission into enemy alien territory. Meanwhile, a power-hungry Archer schemes against Captain Forrest, his lover Hoshi, and loyal slave T’Pol, so he can lay full claim to the discovery.

Connor Trinneer (Commander Charles ‘Trip’ Tucker III)

Guest Cast
Vaughn Armstrong (Captain Maxwell Forrest)
Franc Ross (Grizzled Human)
James Cromwell (Zefram Cochrane)
Cully Fredricksen (Vulcan Captain)

Notes
The episode opened with the first contact scene from the end of Star Trek: First Contact. When Zefram Cochrane is supposed to shake the Vulcan captain’s hand, he shoots him instead!
The opening credits featured an instrumental theme song with images of battles instead of exploration.
The Original Series 3rd season episode “The Tholian Web” introduced the Tholians and the Defiant.
The mirror Tholians created a rift in the universe and lured a ship into the mirror universe — the U.S.S. Defiant NCC-1764, Constitution-class. The ship is approximately 100 years from the future.
The name on the hull is I.S.S. Enterprise. The NX-01 registry is gone, replaced by a mirror universe symbol. There are also yellow stripes painted on the top sides of the saucer section.
Mirror Porthos is a rottweiler instead of a cute beagle.
This episode is the 700th episode of Star Trek produced. (This does not include The Animated Series nor the motion pictures.)
Unlike the other “mirror universe” episodes, this episode (and it’s conclusion) are entirely contained within the mirror universe. There is no crossing-over (other than the starship Defiant).

The Defiant finds rebel Andorian, Vulcan, and Tellarite ships attacking the I.S.S. Avenger, an NX-class starship commanded by Admiral Black. Soval (sporting a goatee) was the science officer on the Avenger. Archer destroyed the rebels, allowing one to escape as a warning.
Ensign Kelby was killed by the Gorn. Reed put on the TOS red shirt uniform and was also critically injured by the Gorn; he was out of commission for the rest of the episode.
T’Pol notes that “It may take centuries, humanity will pay for its arrogance.” See the DS9 episode “Crossover”.
After the destruction of the Avenger, Hoshi poisons Archer, takes over the Defiant and declares herself Empress Sato, ordering Fleet Admiral Gardner to surrender.

Jonathan Frakes has appeared in all four Star Trek series since The Next Generation; as Will Riker in this episode and in Voyager’s “Death Wish”, and as Tom Riker in DS9’s “Defiant”. Marina Sirtis never appeared on DS9, but did appear in 3 episodes of Voyager as Troi.
Rick Berman and Brannon Braga originally wrote this episode for the Season 3 finale when it looked like Paramount wasn’t going to renew the show for a 4th season.
Unlike the series finales for the other Trek spin-offs, this episode is only 1 hour long.
