What in the world was the Admiral talking about? Sounded like I pissed him off somehow.

Admiral Johnson
Dialogue
Archer, we’ve got a situation. Our ambassador to the Xindi, Jane Erris, has flat-out refused to return to Federation space. The woman’s on a god-damned suicide mission to negotiate a ceasefire.

Has she lost her mind? The Xindi will rip her apart!

Dialogue
You don’t need to tell me that. Look, if we don’t get her out of there, next week all we’ll be hearing about is the Federation diplomat who was brutally murdered by an alien power.

Negative, Captain. There’s no interference on our end, I believe her comms array may have been damaged.

Then we’ve got no choice but to bust her out of here. Trip, prep a shuttle for emergency evacuation of the ambassador. All hands to battle stations!

I’m afraid I don’t have a good answer to that. Why don’t you tell me what you were doing about three lightyears behind enemy lines?

But… You’re Captain Archer. You’re a hero! Surely you, of all people, understand that no-one is beyond redemption. You’re… you’re the reason I became a diplomat in the first place.
