I liked this episode a lot. When Archer and the crew went to that monastery, there was damage done. The Andorians have since taken it over and expelled the Vulcan monks who were covering up a bunch of technology. T'Pol, being a Vulcan and participating in the events, has become a scapegoat. The Vulcans, for all their emotional mumbo jumbo, are quite satisfied to play politics and seek revenge. As the Captain and T'Pol are going to a planetary city, they are kidnapped by rebels, bound and threatened. The Enterprise wants to launch a rescue mission but there are other beings involved and they must deal with them. This is another episode where the smug, self-righteous Vulcans show what a pain they can be. The Andorians present the high point of this episode. They are wonderful characters.
