Trivia
T'Pol tells Captain Archer there is an old Vulcan saying, "One man can summon the future". This is a nod to the original Mirror, Mirror (1967), in which the "alternate" Spock tells Captain Kirk the saying of Mirror Vulcans; "One man cannot summon the future".

Goofs
The Romulan Admiral Valdore tells Trip the radiation will kill him in 7 minutes. Given the very limited Romulan/Human contact to this point it is unlikely that Valdore would know how much radiation humans could tolerate.

Valdore is trying to force Trip to reconnect the warp core, so it's irrelevant whether Romulans know how much radiation humans can stand. Valdore is trying to intimidate Trip, and Trip is in pain; it's unlikely that Trip would risk dying on the off chance that Valdore is lying.

Quotes
Commander Shran: I'd rather cohabit with Klingon targs than join forces with Tellarites!
Tellarite Ambassador Gral: Your personal mating preference is no concern of mine.

Good, but I preferred part one.

Very late in the life of "Star Trek: Enterprise" came a wonderful plot idea that make up three very memorable episodes. Part one involves attacks that exacerbate tensions between the Tellurites and Andorians. Here in part two, Malcolm and Trip go on a mission to figure out who is responsible--and they manage to sneak aboard a ship that can imitate other ships! In other words, Romulans are using this strange drone to sow anger and war because they want to destabilize the quadrant. Instead, they manage to unify these enemies because they eventually realize that they are being manipulated.

I liked this plot quite a bit. However, there was a plot involving a debt of honor and a fight to the death that seemed unnecessary and, perhaps, only there to fill out the episode. Still, the show keeps your interest and the Romulans are, as always, enjoyably bad and devious.
