The alien ship returns. Bridge. T'Pol detects a ship dropping out of warp. "Let me guess -- our shadow?" Quantum says. T'Pol reports how quickly the ship is closing in on them. Quantum orders an ensign to polarize the hull plating. Enterprise sustains a hit, which finally manages to pull Reed away from his work in the Mess Hall. He runs to a window and peers out, but he can't see anything, so he tries to com the bridge. No response. He coms the armory. Again, no response. Reed orders everyone in the Mess Hall to their stations and runs out.

Bridge. Power fluctuates, and T'Pol reports that the warp drive is offline. The lights go out, and T'Pol needlessly confirms, "Main power is down." We can see the alien ship launch a shuttle that looks like a very large cicada. It screams toward Enterprise. "Torpedoes?" Quantum gasps out. "Tactical systems are down," T'Pol tells him calmly. "Why don't you save time and tell me what isn't down?!" Quantum squalls, showing all the signs of coming unpasted. They all grab flashlights, and T'Pol reports, "The outer doors of Launch Bay Two are opening." "Seal them!" Quantum orders. How? With her dinners? I mean, main power is down; otherwise he wouldn't be shining that flashlight at her. "I can't," T'Pol reminds him. Quantum runs away.

The Cicada Shuttle Pod enters the Enterprise by way of the launch bay. Two red-shirts play with conduits and motherboards, but are distracted by pounding feet. They shine their flashlights down a corridor and see two weird shapes go by. So of course they must go and investigate -- are they even carrying weapons? As soon as they get to the end of the corridor, they're jumped by something from below. I know it sounds weird, but the camera was taking the view of the attackers, and it was angled to look up at the red-shirts. There's some muffled grunts and clattering, and then the dropped flashlights go dead.
