I actually read somewhere that Archer did nothing wrong and afterward I began remembering all these scenes haha.
That’s Zalbag on the right, but Dycedarg has a beard, and a frumpy robe too I think.

Colm Meaney wanted to play O'Brien as American. “Rick Berman sat me down and said, ‘The whole notion of this show is that it’s multiracial’… I reluctantly started to play him Irish"
“The house I grew up in was built by the Dublin Corporation,” Meaney says.
“How could we build houses then and can’t build them now?... It’s fking Thatcherism, Reaganism, the neoliberals and the trickle-down economy that Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael both bought into, [the idea] that the market will sort everything out. B***ocks.”
Our boy doesn’t hold back and I’m here for it!
Because of the extremely common parlance “drop out of warp” I want to say it implies that the ship keeps moving afterward.
When I run and carry my coffee it is “at warp” but when I stumble and drop it then it is no longer “at warp” but yet it still falls away from the point I dropped it.
But when you drop an abstract there is no implication of movement; when I drop a bad habit it just ceases to exist.
But since the ship still exists after dropping from warp, this is unlikely to be the intended meaning.
Ergo ships drop from warp and that dropping imparts momentum/inertia to ships.
Archer did nothing wrong
As an Archer fan… bwahaha. He knew it was wrong, there’s too much dialog around suspending moral codes and the like.
Eg one of my fave episodes Harbinger:
PHLOX: Captain, this man is dying a painful death. To keep him conscious is unethical.
ARCHER: Until I get the answers I need, we're going to have to bend a few ethics.
PHLOX: Very well, I'll do what I can.
They're the things we carry with us, the things that make us who we are. If we lose them, we lose ourselves. I don't want my ~~pain~~ privacy taken away. I need my ~~pain~~ privacy!
Also, Engineering: divert all life support to shields and Helm: initiate attack pattern alpha 💪
House of Quark is a high point where he saves Quark’s life and allows a Klingon woman to inherit her own house.
Tacking Against The Wind is a low point where he is reduced to a cartoonish mustache-twirler.
The movie’s still great, but the book was really that amazing.
Possibly unpopular opinion: Harbinger is one of the absolute best episodes of Enterprise
These episodes live rent-free in my head.

In hindsight, "the Xindi attack" was a phase change into a much more hard-boiled season of Enterprise.

They cranked it up way past 10, all the way to 24.
I look at you, and I see the person I was three years ago. The explorer that my father wanted me to be. I lost something out there, and I don't know how to get it back.
This one hit me hard after everything that happened.
I'm finding it a very root-beer-flavored entry in the franchise.
