[edit] Summary
The Xindi Council continues to monitor Enterprise's advance through the Delphic Expanse and debates whether to develop a bioweapon to be used instead of Degra's superweapon.
Meanwhile, Enterprise has arrived at a floating bazaar on the Xanthan homeworld to secure the formula for trellium-D so that the ship can be insulated against the Expanse's spatial anomalies. The formula is purchased from B'Rat Ud in exchange for a variety of spices.
Trying to find information about the Xindi, Captain Archer talks to Zjod, the owner of a sex-slave shop. Zjod tries to sell Archer a slave, but as Archer leaves, one of Zjod's slaves, Rajiin, runs after him. Archer fights with Zjod, and Rajiin is brought on board Enterprise. On the ship, Rajiin somehow scans Archer when she arrives in his room to kiss him. She then checks out the Enterprise's transporters and meets Hoshi Sato, and they head into a turbolift. Lastly, she comes to T'Pol's room, claiming that the door was open. She starts to seduce T'Pol physically and mentally, scanning through her head and spine, but the Vulcan shows some resistance. Rajiin knocks out T'Pol, and when Trip Tucker arrives she attacks him as well. However, he remains conscious and alerts the entire ship. Rajiin is soon thrown in the brig. Archer demands to know what she was doing. She tells him that the Xindi want information on humans for a bioweapon.
The Xindi-Reptilians attack Enterprise, boarding the ship and taking Rajiin away with them so that they can use her biometric scans to construct the bioweapon. They escape through a subspace vortex, leaving only one Reptilian corpse and rifle.
Rajiin goes before the Council, which is furious at the Reptilians' unauthorized actions. She uploads the data necessary to create the bioweapon. She tries to state that there is more to humans than they realize, but Commander Dolim orders her away. The rest of the Council fears that the Xindi are now more vulnerable than ever.
