Trivia
This episode establishes that Surak died of radiation poisoning following the explosion of one or more atomic weapons on Mount Seleya during the the last battle against "those who marched beneath the Raptor's wings" (i.e. those Vulcans that opposed Surak's teaching, eventually becoming the Romulan Star Empire). The allusion of the Raptor's Wing refers to the bird-of-prey symbol that represents the Romulan Star Empire.

Goofs
Phlox refers to one of his patients as "Corporal". However, when reviewing the security footage moments before the security guard Phlox refers to seems to be wearing a Starfleet uniform. Starfleet uses naval rank designations and therefore would not be referred to as corporal.

Quotes
Commander Tucker: I never got the impression you cared that much about Humans. Seems like... you were always finding something new to complain about.
Vulcan Ambassador Soval: I lived on Earth for more than thirty years, Commander. In that time, I developed an affinity for your world and its people.
Commander Tucker: You did a pretty good job of hiding it.
Vulcan Ambassador Soval: Thank you.

The Vulcans Have Hitler of Their Own

The Vulcans are being betrayed by an overzealous leader. Meanwhile Archer, having been melded with great Vulcan knowledge, begins to lead the people on the desert. Once Enterprise is driven away, the Vulcan's attack the outpost. Archer begins to have visions. He is connected with the ancestry of the Vulcans. He has knowledge that no one should have. There are great casualties on the planet. This is a truly interesting episode in that it integrates metaphysics with the down to earth logic that has been the wellspring of the pointy eared people.
