So much plot for one episode!!

This episode has a ton of plot compared to a typical episode of "Star Trek: Enterprise"--so hold on tight and be prepared for a heck of a ride!

It begins with Enterprise and the crew back on Earth. Trip has inexplicably asked for a transport to the Enterprise's sister ship, the Columbia. He seems to be dealing with his feelings for T'Pol by running. Soon things get much worse for the crew, as Dr. Phlox is soon kidnapped by Klingon agents. Why would the Klingons go to all this trouble to get the guy? What gives?!

What follows is a very interesting episode about Klingon augments, Reed being sneaky as well as a horrific virus that threatens to possibly kill every Klingon unless Phlox can find a cure. It's all very exciting and complex--hence it's a two-parter. Well worth seeing.

Anecdotes
This episode and the following one (Divergence (2005)) attempt to explain the makeup change in Klingons between Patrouille du cosmos (1966) and Star Trek I: Le film (1979), which had been semi-acknowledged as canon since the broadcast of Blood Oath (1994) and Trials and Tribble-ations (1996) in the 1990s. Some viewers had criticized the Enterprise (2001) producers for not depicting Klingons of this era as smooth-headed, as they had been in the Original Series. While some fans simply ignored the Klingon makeup changes in the various series and films, others had longed for an "official" explanation. The writers of Enterprise hoped their take would find a way of satisfying both points of view, while simultaneously telling an interesting story.

Captain Hernandez addresses the helmsman as "Lieutenant" but her rank insignia indicates she is an Ensign.

Antaak: Euthanizing him.
Dr. Phlox: Out of the question! I thought you were committed to saving lives.
Antaak: It is more honorable to give one's life to medical research than to die for no purpose!
Dr. Phlox: That choice is not ours to make!
