't have come here
looking for you...
...and I don't want anything
more to do with you.
If that's your wish.
How long have I been out?
More than three hours.
I feel like...
I just pulled my head out of a...
plasma relay.
You should rest.
The Kir'Shara...
What do you know about it?
It was important to Surak...
and it's in there.
What's the Kir'Shara?
An artifact.
Syrran led us here to find it.
If he knows where it is...
Telescopes have sighted three Vulcan cruisers
in orbit over the Forge.
The High Command knows we're here.
We should evacuate immediately. Give the order.
I can find it.
That one missed us by 20 meters.
Tactical Alert.
Polarize hull plating.
How many warning shots do Vulcans usually fire?
None.
V'Las.
I'm running out of patience, Commander.
We've been over this.
Our Captain and First Officer
are down there.
We'll make sure they're returned to you.
Break orbit, now.
You really think he'll do it?
V'Las will do what whatever it takes
to accomplish his goal.
Vulcan and Earth have been allies for a hundred years.
Surely they must have seen our ships by now.
If they evacuate into the Forge, they'll be extremely
hard to track. We can't wait any longer.
Drive Enterprise from orbit.
Use all necessary force.
Yes, Excellency.
Phase-cannons-- return fire.
The Vulcan ships are firing on Enterprise.
We could be next. Take charge of the evacuation.
We'll meet you on the Forge as soon as we can.
You can't stay here.
I've spent two years searching for the artifact.
If there's a chance of finding it...
T'Pol...
I'm staying.
Go.
Reroute emergency power to phase-cannons.
Hull breach on C Deck.
They're reporting casualties.
V'Las is hailing.
Audio only. Put him through.
You're hopelessly outgunned,
weapons are off-line, engines failing.
Don't force me to destroy your ship.
He's right.
We should withdraw.
Our deaths won't help Captain Archer or T'Pol.
Get us the hell out of here.
The moment Enterprise is beyond scanner range...
begin bombardment of the compound.
Yes, Excellency.
T'Klass. He was a student of Surak--
one of the first Kolinahr masters.
There's no inscription.
Nothing to indicate his bloodline.
How do you know his name?
We're getting close.
[ deep rumbling ]
They've begun their assault.
It's here.
[ clicking, unlatching ]
I had my doubts whether it really existed.
Let's go.
This way.
Report.
Geomagnetic interference.
We can't get a target lock.
Blanket the area.
The sanctuary's been destroyed.
Comb the desert.
Make sure there are no survivors.
Affirmative.
You're presiding over a massacre.
We are eliminating a threat.
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
We should keep moving.
[ groaning ]
Captain...
[ groaning ]
I was afraid you were still inside.
It's all right.
We found the Kir'Shara.
You have always struggled so with your emotions.
I came here...
I did all this to help you.
I don't understand.
You will.
[ groans ]
Mother...
I've always been so proud of you.
My T'Pol.
Mother.
I understand we suffered casualties.
Injuries.
Two of them serious.
I share your concern
about Captain Archer and T'Pol.
They've been in tough jams before.
What does the High Command
have against the Syrrannites?
They went to a lot of trouble
to frame them for the embassy bombing.
The Syrrannites believe violence
to be antithetical to Surak's teachings.
So, they're pacifists.
V'Las considers that a dangerous mindset,
particularly now.
What do you mean?
The High Command is planning to attack Andoria.
Wait, wait.
Vulcan and Andoria signed a peace treaty
two years ago.
Captain Archer helped negotiate it.
Vulcan Intelligence claims, the Andorians
are developing a weapon, possibly based on Xindi technology.
You don't believe it. I suspect V'Las
is using the claim to advance an agenda.
He's persuaded the High Command
to launch a preemptive strike.
He's going to start an interstellar war.
One that could devastate Andoria and
