Bounty

With Archer, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Now it's the Klingons who want to get him back after his escape from the penal colony. He is captured by a bounty hunter who is living with some bad judgment in the past. At first the guy is stone cold and indifferent to the pleadings of Archer (some might think he would put him someplace where he can't complain), then he begins to soften a bit. He feels the Klingons will play fair with him. The Enterprise has to work hard to locate their captain. Meanwhile, returning from an exploratory search, Phlox and T'Pol are in a decontamination chamber, getting cleaned up, but a virus of some sort has invaded their bodies. Obviously, this is an exploitative event because T'Pol goes into a premature mating cycle, but must remain, isolated with Phlox, who is having a hard time dealing with it. Still, the story is interesting and so is this event, even if it could be interpreted as eye-candy for the males.
