- TriviaAccording to Trekweb, LeVar Burton who played Geordi La Forge in Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) went to the producers and told them he was "ashamed" that he had directed this episode.
- GoofsWhen Trip tries to persuade T'Pol to come back to Enterprise with him, she refuses, saying she'd rather stay with Archer and Hoshi, but T'Pol is completely out of contact with Enterprise while she follows her two crewmates. Why doesn't she take a communicator and phaser from Trip so that she's at least able to communicate with Enterprise and defend herself?

Featured review
Phlox is a Genius at Double Time
I was entertained by this episode, and I'm not going to criticize the special effects or the acting. These are TV actors and they don't have time to hone their parts and do numerous retakes like in movies. Also, would you like them to spend a few hundred thousand dollars to do a series of miniatures that appear on screen for a minute or two. That said, the story did distract us for a time from the principal direction. The entire season seems devoted to the Xindi story line, so there has to be a bit of other exploration along the way. Here, a virus that has nearly obliterated a race is being controlled by extermination of those with the syndrome, including those who are part of the extermination team. The away team gets infected and the powers that be tell the Enterprise that they will take care of things. Phlox steps in and seems to be able to do things beyond those of the scientists that have been dealing with this for a long time. If I have a criticism, it's the speed with which the most trying medical and engineering emergencies can be dealt with. The race to save the crew members is interesting and exciting and pretty original.
