Star Trek: Enterprise

Previously on Enterprise:

We're in bad shape. I can't deny that.

Perhaps my crew can help.

My emotions are growing more difficult to control.

You used trellium for three months.

You may have to learn to live with these emotions.

These are the coordinates for the Council Chamber.

It'll take us weeks to get there.

There's a shorter route, a subspace corridor.

I'll meet you at the far end in three days.

See you in three days.

Come in.

The probe?

We couldn't stop it from entering the vortex.

It's on its way to Earth.

Seven million people.

Everything is happening as it did before.

Then you have no choice...

you must find Jonathan Archer.

It's been a long road

Gettin' from there to here

It's been a long time

But my time is finally near

And I will see my dream Come alive at last

I will touch the sky

And they're not gonna Hold me down no more

No, they're not gonna change my mind

'Cause I've got faith of the heart

I'm going where my heart will take me

I've got faith to believe

I can do anything

I've got strength of the soul

And no one's gonna bend or break me

I can reach any star

I've got faith

I've got faith

Faith of the heart

Come in.

I'm sorry to bother you.

I'm having a little trouble falling asleep.

I think my insomnia's come back.

You're here for neuro-pressure.

It's been weeks since our last session.

We've all been under a lot of stress lately.

Thought it might do us both some good.

I think we should discontinue these treatments.

Why?

You've become quite skilled with the postures I've shown you.

You told me it takes years to master neuro-pressure.

- I'm not that quick a study. - I've taught you all I can.

Look...

truth is...

I'm sleeping fine.

I didn't come for neuro-pressure. I came because I'm worried about you.

Worried?

You've been keeping to yourself a lot lately, even more than usual.

You spend every free moment in your quarters...

you even asked Chef to bring your meals here.

The Mess Hall's heavily damaged. Where do you suggest I eat?

Come on...

you've got to admit...

you've been avoiding me ever since the two of us...

you know, when we...

Had sexual relations.

That's real romantic when you put it that way.

I told you...

what happened was an exploration...

not the prelude to an intimate relationship.

- I never said I wanted a relationship. - Neither did I.

You helped me get through a rough patch, and I'm grateful.

I just stopped by to see if I could return the favour.

I appreciate your concern.

But I'm fine.

Degra said these Kovaalans had only one or two ships inside the nebula.

It would appear that his information is out of date.

There are at least half a dozen ships.

According to Degra, they're not very tolerant of trespassers.

How close are they to the corridor?

Within 60,000 kilometres.

We'll ionise the hull.

That should mask our approach for a while.

I suggest we enter here...

above this layer of metreon gas.

It should reflect our engine signature...

create multiple sensor ghosts, false readings.

If we're lucky, they won't know which one to fire at.

You gave them the coordinates?

They could launch an attack against the Council.

Archer's ship was heavily damaged.

They wouldn't stand a chance against one of our cruisers.

There may be other human ships in the Expanse.

- Those readings were never confirmed. - This discussion is pointless.

You won't be allowed to bring Archer before the Council.

Then we won't ask their permission.

He'll be killed the moment he steps into the Council chamber.

They have to listen.

His allegations are too important to simply dismiss.

Do you believe Archer's being truthful?

I don't think he's told us everything...

but I can't explain the evidence that we saw.

The humans could have manufactured this evidence.

They'd do anything to save their planet.

If Archer is telling the truth...

then all the Council's efforts will be for nothing.

The Reptilians patrol this side of the corridor.

They'll destroy the human vessel as soon as it comes through.

I've already considered that. We can protect them.

What makes you think the Reptilians won't fire on us?

Tactical Alert.

Take us in.

Aye, sir.

A ship is dropping out of warp.

Can you identify it?

- This can't be right. - T'Pol?

It's Starfleet, NX-class.

Are you sure it's not a sensor reflection?

We haven't entered the nebula yet.

Whoever they are, they're on an intercept course.

We're within visual range.

Must be the NX-02 Columbia.

It's still under construction.

I don't think that's Columbia.

We're being hailed.

Captain Archer...

you must reverse course immediately.

Who are you?

There's no time to explain. Alter your heading.

Come about, Ensign.

Would you tell me what the hell is going on?

- Your weapons won't be necessary. - I'd like some answers first.

I'm Lorian, commander of Enterprise.

Karyn Archer, my First Officer.

We should find a place to talk...

perhaps the Conference Room.

You'll want T'Pol to join us.

You can't take your ship into the subspace corridor.

If you do, it'll be thrown back in time 117 years.

- How would you know that? - Because it's already happened.

We're here to make certain that history doesn't repeat itself.

The Kovaalans attacked Enterprise as soon as it entered the nebula.

- Phase-cannons are off-line. - Torpedoes, full spread!

- How long until we reach the corridor? - 18 seconds.

Aft plating's gone.

- We're losing speed. - Hold your course!

The trip through the corridor took only a few seconds.

It didn't take long before your crew realised something was wrong.

No sign of pursuit.

Where are we?

We've travelled 11.6 light-years.

Degra?

Nothing on long-range sensors.

Captain, the stars...

they're not where they're supposed to be.

Are you sure we're at the right coordinates?

Yes.

Enterprise was in the right place...

but it was over 100 years early.

We're not entirely sure why this happened...

but we have a theory.

We think your impulse wake destabilised the corridor...

causing it to shift in time.

Why didn't you...

Didn't we...

go back through it?

T'Pol eventually determined...

that ships can only travel through this corridor in one direction.

I'll notify the crew.

Let Travis know we'll be getting under way.

Let Travis know we'll be getting under way.

What course should we set?

Even if we found a way out of the Expanse, we can't go back to Earth.

We'd be...

contaminating our own culture, our own history.

Cochrane's warp flight won't happen for another 26 years.

Maybe there's a way we can use this...

to our advantage.

How?

We know the date...

when Earth is attacked by the first Xindi probe.

We may be able to figure out a way...

to warn them or even prevent the attack.

The probe won't be deployed for more than 100 years.

Your crew realised it would be their descendants...

who'd have to complete this mission.

It was only a matter of time before the first child was born.

Enterprise became a generational ship.

You showed your children how to operate and maintain its systems...

and they did the same for their children.

You've been flying around the Expanse...

for over a century?

That's unlikely.

Enterprise doesn't have fuel or provisions for such a long journey.

You've hardly changed, Mother.

I beg your pardon.

You made alliances with other species...

traded technology for food and supplies.

You even acquired a few alien crew members.

We did our best to carry out the mission you gave us, Captain.

To destroy the first Xindi probe...

but you failed.
