B-
If the plot itself hadn't been so predictable, I might have given it a higher grade. A slightly different take on TNG's "The Outcast," with some fine acting from Trinneer and Bakula. The last scene between the two is quite possibly the best dramatic moment in the series. However, it didn't carry as much weight as it could have because of Archer's blatant hypocrisy. Still, I have to wonder if he didn't know he could be addressing the speech to himself, the way he seemed all introspective while looking out the window. The line earlier where he tells trip even he doesn't know what he would have done may have been an indicator of this.
My verdict: Pretty solid overall, but brought down by the predictability and simple dumbness of the middle part. This episode deserved to be written better than it was.
