- Enterprise has a group of aliens watching a stellar phenomenon on board. When the ship is miraculously saved from blowing up, crewman Daniels has an important message for Archer.
- Archer orders Enterprise to go to a stellar nursery that has ships flying nearby. A group of aliens is on their way to watch the Great Plume of Agosoria, a neutron blast from a protostar that happens every 11 years. Always eager to make first contact Archer invites them to visit Enterprise. When Enterprise is hit by a plasma storm, a miracle happens when a cascade running directly into the warp drive is stopped. Someone disconnected a panel, but who? Suddenly crewman Daniels tells Archer a Suliban entered the ship and that he has come from the future to capture him.—Arnoud Tiele (imdb@tiele.nl)
- The Enterprise encounters an alien spacecraft with amicable aliens that will watch the Great Plume of Agosoria, a phenomenon considered religious by them that happen every eleven years, and Archer invite the group to come on board of Enterprise. When a plasma storm hits Enterprise, there is a miracle interrupting a serious cascade failure, preventing the reactor breach and explosion of Enterprise, and Trip finds that someone of the alien group disconnected a cable saving Enterprise. Later, the crewman Daniels tells Archer that he is a time traveler that has come from the future to chase the Sulliban soldier Silik, his opponent in a temporal cold war.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- Enterprise investigates a stellar nursery with several ships inside. Hailing one, they encounter a transport ship (led by Captain Fraddock (Michael O'Hagan)) that is shipping group on a pilgrimage to the Great Plume of Agosoria. Every eleven years, one of the Protostars emits a neutron blast that the pilgrims consider a sacred event. Captain Archer invites the pilgrims (Led by Prah Mantoos (Joseph Hindy)) to visit Enterprise.
In Engineering, Commander Tucker explains the Warp 5 engine to the pilgrims. One alien discreetly disconnects an antimatter junction, and his arm morphs, revealing him as Suliban.
As Enterprise tries to go around a plasma storm, a bolt strikes the ship and causes an antimatter cascade that almost reaches the reactor, but is stopped by the disconnected junction. Tucker detects the sabotage in the junction, but does not suspect any of the crew. Crewman Daniels informs Archer that he believes one of the pilgrims is Silik (John Fleck), whom Archer encountered in the episode "Broken Bow". In his quarters, Daniels (Matt Winston) tells Archer he is not Starfleet but from the 31st century, commenting that the people who command Silik in the Temporal Cold War are from an earlier century. Daniels also says that Silik was the one who disconnected the antimatter junction which saved the ship from blowing up. Those people have not yet perfected the science to physically manifest in the past and thus use their partial manifestation to pass on information.
He comments that he has been sent to capture Silik, and asks for permission to tie his tracking technology into the Enterprise's internal sensors, along with Archer's command codes.. Daniels wants to capture Silik to find out who is controlling him and what they are trying to do.. Daniels shows Archer a temporal database through which they travel through time and keep an eye on events. T'pol is very skeptical and says there is no proof that time travel exists or can even exist in the future (if he really was from the future then he could just go one more day in the past and prevent Silik from boarding the Enterprise in the first place).. Archer decides to help Daniels
Silik appears to Archer in his quarters and claims that Daniels' group was responsible for the antimatter cascade, and that the Temporal Accord is a lie. Silik finds that Daniels is in the Engineering section and stuns Archer. In Engineering, Daniels detects Suliban bio-signs, but is surprised and (seemingly, see "Shockwave") vaporized by Silik. T'Pol and Tucker summon Doctor Phlox to revive the now unconscious Archer.
Archer asks Tucker to use Daniels' sensors to locate Silik while he and T'Pol visit Daniels' quarters to study the database that Archer saw earlier. It is gone. Silik escapes to Shuttle Bay 4, and refuses to surrender the device, so Archer shoots it from his hand. Silik opens the bay doors and free-falls to a waiting Suliban shuttle-pod, and Archer asks Lieutenant Reed to seal off Daniels' cabin and any temporal secrets it may hold.
