Episode Summary & Review

Summary

A disturbing incident from T’Pol’s past prompts her to seek Archer’s help in apprehending a renegade undercover Vulcan agent wanted for smuggling biotoxins used to make weapons.

Our Take

A solid character piece for T’Pol that finally gives Jolene Blalock something meaty to work with, even if the mystery around the fugitive resolves a bit too neatly. The desert cat-and-mouse stuff drags in the middle, but the twist lands well enough to justify the buildup. Not essential viewing, but a decent hour if you want more Vulcan backstory.
