Archer and T'Pol, after a perilous trek across a Vulcan desert, finally locate the Syrrannites, a revolutionary faction blamed for the bombing of the Earth embassy. The Syrrannites, with a young T'Pau at helms, claim to embrace the true teachings of Surak — the father of Vulcan philosophy who instigated the Time of Awakening almost 2000 years ago — but Archer and T'Pol are highly skeptical of their professions of pacifism. Meanwhile, Trip Tucker is in command of Enterprise, and with Ambassador Soval's help, contends with an obstinate leader of the Vulcan High Command V'Las whose campaign against the Syrrannites could endanger the captain and first officer. And while Vulcan's state of unrest grows more violent, former Ambassador Soval reveals to Trip that the High Command also plans to launch a massive sneak attack against rival planet Andoria, an act that could pull Earth into interplanetary war.

Noncorporeal aliens study the Enterprise crew as they respond to a fatal viral infection brought on board from an away mission. Rumors tell these aliens would be the Organians, a species who will force the Federation and the Klingons into a peace treaty and ending their war.

Earth has volunteered to mediate in a dispute between the Tellarites and Andorians. Enterprise must transport the Tellarite delegation, headed by the rather portly Ambassador Gral, to the peace talks on Babel One. While Jonathan Archer wears his new diplomatic role well, the Tellarites become less than happy with the demands of the Tellarite guests. The NX-01 is also transporting the Andorian party to Babel One, which leads to on-board tensions. But the tense atmosphere is exacerbated when Archer is contacted by the Andorian authorites claming that one of their ships was recently destroyed by the Tellarites. Ambassador Gral denies all knowledge of the attack, and suggests that the Andorians may have fabricated their ship's sensor logs to incriminate the Tellarites. Nevertheless, the Andorians demand to be returned home. Gral and his aide Naarg soon become paranoid that Archer is not truly an impartial mediator due to his friendship with Shran, and the pair even start to believe that the captain is conspiring with the Andorians. With the Tellarites and Andorians at each other's throats, this situation would be enough to give anyone a headache of inter-galactic proportions. But soon a third species enters the stage, the Romulans. Many thanks to trektoday.com for this summary.
