When Enterprise comes across a disabled Klingon vessel, Archer dispatches a shuttlepod with T'Pol, Hoshi, and Reed to investigate. There, a hostile female Klingon ambushes them and hijacks the shuttlepod, leaving the Enterprise crewmembers dangerously stranded aboard the Klingon vessel. Now it's up to Archer to take the Klingon under guard and enlist her help rescuing his crew.
