An anomaly causes Archer to be infected with parasites that cause him to lose recent memory in a matter of hours. He wakes up one morning and is shocked to discover that he is twelve years in the future, and he can't remember anything that happened previously because of the parasites. T'Pol informs him on what he has forgotten, mainly the destruction of Earth by the Xindi.

 

Excellent episode. The moral of this story is that without Archer, the Enterprise will fail and the Earth is doomed. Excellent special effects, the Earth exploding was remarkable! Excellent acting, you can feel for Archer as he cries when he hears that the Earth has been destroyed.

 

One thing that was interesting is that after the Earth blew up, the surviving humans moved to the Ceti Alpha system, mainly Ceti Alpha V. Overall a great episode

Predictable in that it's the death of the parasites that correct the timeline, didn't care for the development between T'Pol and Archer, and yet I loved this episode. I have to give it a 5. Kept me enrapt, even where Archer realizes he's reliving the same moments. Very well done.
