The Enterprise is on its way to a planet ruled by women. They are a quickly advancing culture. As the shuttle enters the atmosphere, there is a massive explosion, killing everyone. Archer is devastated, believing the shuttle caused the extermination on the planet. He is called back by Starfleet and the Vulcans, to face the music, possibly ending the mission of Enterprise. All tests show that it should not have happened. That night, Archer is transported back to earth, eight months earlier, where he meets the time traveler. He gives Archer information on what to do and absolves him and his crew of blame. Once again, our old friends the Suliban are in the middle of all this. They carry out a daring raid, but as the episode ends, everything goes wrong.
