[I love well-meaning but haunted Lorian, but in this scene especially, Karyn Archer just rocks.]
LORIAN: There's too much at stake.
LORIAN: There's too much at stake.
Lorien: I could have destroyed it. Years ago, I swore to my Captain on his deathbed I'd save those 7 million lives. You were the man I made that promise to. I devoted my life to that mission. We knew the co-ordinates of the launch platform, the exact minute the weapon was going to be deployed. But our plan didn't work. I had one last chance. Use Enterprise itself, set a collision course with the probe. But I hesitated, my emotions took over. I couldn't give an order that would kill my crew. By the time I realised my mistake it was too late, the probe was gone. I won't let my emotions get in the way again. I will not let Earth be destroyed.
(Archer opens the cell door and goes in.)
ARCHER: I could keep you locked up in here, but that wouldn't do either of us any good. All that matters is what we're going to do next. Whether you agree with it or not, I'm taking my ship into that corridor. And I'll stand a much better chance of completing this mission, our mission, if we work together.

YOUNG T'POL: Am I disturbing you?
65 Years Young T'Pol: We had trouble with your modifications. We were only able to reduce our particle wake by eighty six percent. The corridor could destabilise again.
