"In a Mirror, Darkly" Line-by-Line

ARCHER: The cloak's your first priority. (to Reed) Someone's responsible for what happened. Find out who.

 

TUCKER: My people can investigate this. I don't need his kind crawling around, pulling relays.

 

ARCHER: Get the cloak online.

[Brig]

ARCHER (to Forrest): Who sabotaged the cloak?

 

FORREST: Was something damaged?

 

ARCHER: I know Admiral Black has an agent on Enterprise. I want the name.

 

FORREST: You really think that the Admiral would plant a spy on my ship and then tell me who it is?

 

ARCHER: (to Travis) Go to his quarters, search his personal files. Look for messages from Starfleet.

 

FORREST: Follow his orders, and you'll be executed as a co-conspirator.

 

TRAVIS: Aye, Captain. (but to whom, we're not sure)

(Travis leaves)

 

FORREST: This isn't like you, Jonathan. You never lusted for power and glory. That's why I trusted you at my side for all these years, because you have no ambition.

(Archer opens the door and walks in, punches him in the kidneys and throws him against the walls.)

 

ARCHER: If that's right, then why are you in the Brig?

 

FORREST: (in a strangle hold) Release me and I promise your death will be quick. You won't get that guarantee from the Admiral. Kill me and she'll never forgive you.

 

[Situation room]

REED: The saboteur entered this junction and deliberately overloaded this EPS waveguide.

 

ARCHER: That junction's supposed to be off-limits.

 

REED: The intruder alarms were disabled.

 

ARCHER: How?

 

REED: There's only one way I know of. By running a high-level diagnostic scan. Commander Tucker initiated a scan thirty minutes before the overload.

 

[Agony booth]

ARCHER: Who ordered you to sabotage the cloak?

 

TUCKER: I didn't!

(Malcolm is at the controls and enjoying himself.)

Reed, I'll kill you when I get out of this!

 

REED: I'd like to see you try.
