Fallen Hero

The humans are on their way to Risa in order to get la...I mean, have some shore leave. However, they are once again diverted from this by an emergency mission to collect a disgraced Vulcan ambassador from some crappy planet. The Mazarites seem very keen to get rid of her and the Enterprise takes her aboard. However, a short time later, a Mazarite ship arrives and demands they hand over the ambassador! What gives? At the same time, the ambassador is acting kind of strange--especially for a Vulcan. What gives?!

This is a great episode because it does quite a bit to further the overarching plot about the Earth-Vulcan relationship, the relationship between Archer and T'Pol as well as being very exciting. Too bad all the episodes aren't this exciting and there's little not to like about this one...unless you are a nitpicky jerk.
