May 6th, 2151: After two weeks without finding intelligent life, Enterprise encounters an alien ship afloat in space and its crew dead. After leaving the scene on T'Pol's advice, Archer decides to turn the ship around. Further examination by Dr. Phlox yields the result that the crew have been killed to harvest triglobulin from them. When the attackers return, they discover the Enterprise crew as new worth while victims. Another ship of the attacked species arrives, and it is up to Hoshi to explain their situation with the few words of the alien language she has learned. She finally succeeds when she turns off the translator and talks to the captain of the androgynous Axanar directly, who then fires at the attacking ship that can be destroyed in a joined effort.
