in denobulan, please. um... ( speaks denobulan ) well, are you? ( sighs ) ...to make physical contact? well, she did kiss me on the cheek the other night. in denobulan, doctor. i beg your pardon? couple. cute couple. it's pretty crowded out there. a lot of spacecraft and artificial satellites. nothing i can't avoid, sir. put us in a low orbit, travis. they're expecting us. phlox: the captain has committed all our resources to helping people once again, i am struck by your species' desire to help others. it seems the more aggressively we treat the illness the more resistant it becomes. what's the current rate of infection? one out of three. it's a full-blown epidemic. these are in the most advanced stage. you're treating them with a synthetic antibody? it's effective at first but the disease mutates there's no way of controlling it. pulmonary failure usually follows in a few days. phlox: captain, treatment with priaxate should ease the symptoms in the sickest patients at least temporarily. i can easily show the valakians how to synthesize as much a

the denobulan is working to stabilize the human dna. you will all be healthy again and stronger than any klingon. will he restore our appearance? i don't know. how do you expect us to return home looking like this? we will be outcasts. your heart is still klingon. are you certain of that? during the battle with the starfleet ship i felt fear for the first time since i was a child. i wasn't alone. i could see it in the eyes of the others. we've become like them... weak... cowardly. the empire will not turn its back on you. i get the feeling you miss phlox, too. or maybe it's just the stash of cheese he's got in sick bay. ( com beeps ) hold that thought. harris: captain archer, i'm told you have some questions for me. he's safe. on a mission of great importance to starfleet. phlox was kidnapped. starfleet would never authorize that. reread the charter, article 14, section 31. there are a few lines that make allowances for bending the rules during times of extraordinary threat. what threat? take your pick. earth's got a lot of enemies. kli

you, denobulan, come with us. what do you want? maybe you didn't hear me. dol'sha t'ununnev'rleel. hoshi... i'm all right, sir. who did this? that's what i'm trying to determine. commander collins, starfleet security. jonathan archer. this is lieutenant reed. there were three men.

did you know in the other universe, humans and denobulans are considered equals? as are vulcans. hmm. if i were the captain, i'd restrict access to that database. i'm certain he wouldn't want to give his crew any ideas, hmm? perhaps you shshld reconsider the... archer ( over com ): this is the captain. all hands to battle stations. ( alarm blaring ) report! ll breach on b-deck. emergency bulkheads are engaged. concentrate your fire on the andorians. hull plating's at 32%. admiral, there's another vessel approaching. momo rebels? no. direct hits. lock on to their reactor. fire when ready. ( distant firing ) target destroyed. the vulcan ship's trying to escape. pursuit course. captain, they're no threat to us. i recommend we... fire when n ady. sato: the last andoriaia ship is retreating. weapaps are locked. no. let them go. i want the other rebels to know what h hpened here. get me admiral black. black: archer? where's enterprise? is captain forrest with you? it's going to take some time to explain, sir. perhaps you'd like to see the defiant for yourself. a most impressive vessel,

i am a denobulan. i am captain archer's physician. you tracked from earth... on a sky ship. it's called enterprise. to what? gut the rest of us? no. we're here to find out what happened to the colony. we came to help you. novans have had enough "help" from you. we're not so easy to hunt as diggers. go back to the overside, or we'll seal your passage. i told you. we're not here to hurt anybody. take that one, and don't track back. all right on one leg. my doctor needs to treat him. what makes you think we're here to hurt you? humans hurt novans. they gutted us. our families. our before-families. i don't understand. the poison rain. i was no taller than a digger but i can still see back. we lived on the overside. then the humans dropped the poison, burned our skin gutted the grown ones. there was no place to go but here. to the... "underside." i think i know what you're talking about. the poison rain. it was some kind of radiation. i don't know what caused it, but i'm sure it wasn't humans. he can walk... more or less but i'll need to get him back to sick bay to remove the pro

there's no record of anything like it in the denobulan database. then it's up to you. i'll do all i can, captain, but atathe rate the pathogen is reproducing... commander tucker and ensign sato have mmm, t tt smells delicious. thanks, but it's for sandra. i know ... such a shame about will. i just wish we could do more. she's got a lot on her plate now between william's hospital expenses and his funeral bills. she also lost his pension when he died. it makes me wonder... i've been thinking the same thing. and, you know, sooner o olater one of us may end up in the same position. and i think we need to protect ourselves with life insurance. yeah, but at our age and with your health? we donon have that kind of extra money. if we were going to get life insurance, we should've done it years ago. i looked into it. mass mutual has a policy designed to cover the things we would need and it starts at 10 bucks a month. okay, so we can afford it. what about your health? you can't be turned down for health reasons. it's called guaranteed acceptance life insurance. what do you thin

my father had died in a freighter accident and i blamed the pilot, who happened to be denobulan. we all have our demons. i've exorcised mine. i don't care what you did when you were young, minister. i need your help. i underestimated you. thank you. hmm, i can't decide ( camera clicks ) if i like you better in uniform or not. i've been assigned to do a story on enterprise. hmm, they can build a ship that goes faster than light, but they can't give you a decent-sized room? a story? it's told from the perspective of the crew. it'll cover the missions, the perils, life in space. so, shall we start with a tour? i've got some work to do. you're not on duty. gannet. ( camera clicks ) okay, so maybe maybe i suggested the idea to my editor. that it's the "last vestige of colonial impulse"? i only said that to keep you from signing onto this mission. find another story to do. it's too late. it's due a week from today. then you're gonna have to find another source for your information. why are you avoiding me? can you give me one reason why i shouldn't avoid you? we both called it off. it

i think this denobulan doctor is secretly in love with you. he wants to keep you to himself. you said my wound was superficial. you were only grazed. that tellarite pig. is there any other kind? i've seen what phase-pulse infection can do to andorians. you're going to be fine. we'll be home soon, the two of us. ( crying ) don't let me die unavenged. i won't. i mean? she needs to rest. he can't get enough of you. i'm jealous. how is she? lucky to be alive. i have a proposal. if it involves killing tellarites, i'm all for it. damaged and defenseless, because of a single rigellian scoutship?! is that what you want me to report to theheenate? the drone has taken damage before. it's designedd. if our enemies find it... that's the p pnt of this project! no prisoners to capture, no bodies to recover. these drone ships can never be traced back to us. this prototype's a modified warbird. the propulsion matrix. ththvulcans won't get anywhere near it. don't underestimate our distant brothers. bring your ship home. i'll tell the senate that your test has been a success. otherwise, they'l
