Any last words?

Go to hell.

Didn't know Skags believed in hell.

[HORSES WHINNY]

MACREADY:
Who's paying for the box?

I hope you're not planning
to bury him in the cemetery.

His people don't bury their dead.

But I wouldn't expect you
to know that.

I'm sorry I didn't get there in time
to stop them.

- What difference would it have made?
- He'd have gotten a trial.

And the same people that lynched him
would have been sitting on the jury.

Bethany...

He killed a man.

Self-defense or not,
that's a hanging offense for a Skag.

- What have you got?
- I've confirmed that they're human.

Their DNA is a perfect match.

[QUIETLY] Looks pretty authentic,
captain, right down to the spittoons.

And the hangings.

If these people are from Earth,

how the hell did they get here?

Archer to Enterprise. Report.

REED [OVER COM]:
We've scanned 90 percent of the surface.

The human settlements are clustered

within a few hundred kilometers
of your location,

about 6,000 people.

ARCHER:
And the aliens?

Fewer than a thousand.

Their closest encampment

is 10 kilometers northwest
of your present position.

Any signs of technology?

Energy signatures, vessels?

None, sir.

Our quantum scans

put the earlier structures
at over 250 years old.

That sounds about right.

REED: But they're all constructed
of materials indigenous to the planet.

Acknowledged.

Go check out that alien settlement.
See what you can find.

There's no telling how anyone
would react

if they find out who we really are.

Keep a low profile.

Aye, sir.

TRIP:
Morning.

MAN:
Can I help you folks?

I hope so.

We need a horse.

What happened to yours?

- Excuse me?
- It's a long way from the next town.

How'd you get here?

Our horses perished
several miles north of your town

from heat exhaustion.

Well, you're lucky
the sun vipers didn't get you, heh-heh.

Or those Skags.

MAN:
Come on.

This one here, only 4 years old.

Good stock.

Twenty dollars, she's yours.

Sounds kind of steep.

I don't suppose
you'd be interested in a trade.

Well, that depends
on what you've got to trade.

[PLAYS TUNE ON HARMONICA]

I haven't seen one of these
in years.

Look, uh, I know it's not worth a horse,

but we only need him
for a couple of hours.

We just wanna ride out,
grab our gear.

We'll be back before you know it.

Uh...

Well...

How about I leave my gun
for collateral?

You got yourself a deal.

Here, buddy.

Go on. Go on, girl.

Do you have any experience
riding these animals?

I've seen every John Ford Western.

- Who?
- Look, how hard can it be?

Better hold on.

- Afternoon.
- What can I get you?

I'm passing through town.

I was hoping I could sit in here
for a while till it cools down.

Coffee's on the house.

Thanks.

Where you headed?

My brother's got a ranch down south.

He said he could set me up
with some work.

What's he raising, blue horns?

How'd you know?

The land down there
is not good for much else.

[ARCHER CHUCKLES]

See the resemblance?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

You're not telling me
you're related to Cooper Smith.

He's my ancestor.

- I'll be damned.
- Yep.

You're looking at
the only direct descendant

of the man who overthrew
the Skags.

ARCHER:
I bet you've got some stories.

Got a few I could tell you.

[DOOR OPENS
THEN MEN CHUCKLE]

[MEN CHATTER INDISTINCTLY]

MAN:
Just getting started.

Friends of yours?

Not particularly.

How about a little service?

What will it be?

Anything but that rot-gut
you were pouring yesterday.

Why don't you join us?

I'm not allowed to do that,
Mr. Bennings.

It's Deputy Bennings.

I can bend a local ordinance,
if I choose.

Have a seat.

I imagine you could use a drink

after what happened last night.

Let's raise a glass

to the dearly departed.

To dead Skags.

[MEN CHUCKLE]

Drink up.

[MEN CHUCKLE]

I thought you people
could hold your liquor.

Your friend had a few in him
the night he killed Clay Stanton.

He didn't drink.

Beg your pardon?

- I better get back to work.
- No, no. No, wait a minute.

I don't think I heard you right.

You're telling me that a sober Skag
had the nerve to shoot a man?

I find that hard to believe.

Maybe you could demonstrate.

Pick it up.

Shoot me, right here,
between the eyes.

This is your golden opportunity.

Don't pass it up.

I know you'd like to kill me.

That's what all you Skags want,
isn't it?

Go ahead.

Or maybe you need to finish
that drink first.

Excuse me. Do you think
I could get some more coffee

before you shoot him?

Who the hell are you?

Name's Archer.

Well, Mr. Archer,

you could learn a thing or two
about manners.

I don't like being interrupted
in the middle of a conversation.

ARCHER:
I'll keep that in mind.

There a problem here?

I was just having a drink
with our friend Draysik

and this gentleman decided
to butt in.

I saw you this morning
at the undertaker's.

What's your business here?

Just passing through town.

This Skag a friend of yours?

I just wanted him
to get me a cup of coffee.

It's a little hot for coffee today,
don't you think?

Maybe you're right.

It's been a pleasure.

Keep an eye on him.

Make sure he leaves town.

And, Bennings,
leave the Skag alone.

I'd estimate this vessel's been here
for at least two centuries.

Where you going?

The captain said
to learn whatever we could.

He also said to keep a low profile.

I plan to.

[DOOR OPENS]

Didn't mean to startle you.

What do you want?

My name's Jonathan Archer.

I saw you this morning,
paying for that man's casket.

I don't know where you're from,
Mr. Archer,

but around here, no one refers
to a Skagaran as a man.

If you'll excuse me...

Can I help you with that?

I'll manage.

It's no trouble.

I'll ask you again.

What do you want?

I'd like to learn more
about the Skagarans.

Everyone knows about the Skagarans.

- There aren't any where I come from.
- Where is that?

Up north, quite a ways.

If certain people had their way,

there wouldn't be any
around here either.

I heard about what you did
in the saloon today.

Deputy Bennings
has a nasty temper.

Why would you risk getting thrown
in jail, maybe worse?

I don't think that Skagaran's life
is any less valuable than mine.

So, what do you want with me?

Well,

you are the teacher around here,
aren't you?

The first Skagaran I ever saw
was today, lying in that coffin.

Seems I'd be more likely
to get the truth from you

than from the men who put him there.

Would you like to meet more of them?

It's all right.

T'POL [WHISPERING]:
Captain.

Bethany.

These are the friends
I told you about.

You're from up north too?

That's correct.

The children will be here soon.

You said you wanted
to learn something, Mr. Archer.

You're welcome to stay
for the lesson.

Thanks.

Kind of late at night
to be teaching school.

It's illegal to teach Skagaran.

A ship?

What's left of it.

We found these in a data module.

ARCHER: Go back to Enterprise.
See what you can salvage.

You're not coming with us?

Don't wanna miss
my first day of school.

BETHANY: Nine times 12.
Don't forget to carry the one.

Yral.

Nine times 12 equals 108.

BETHANY:
That's right.

You're doing very well
with your multiplication tables.

Tomorrow night, we'll start with
something a little more challenging:

long division.

Kret, collect the slates, please.

I brought a friend with me who'd like
to learn more about your people.

Who can tell Mr. Archer

how the humans and the Skagarans
came to live together?

Taliyah?

Our ancestors took the humans from
their planet and brought them here.

And why did they do that?

To make them work.

But the humans didn't want to
work for the Skagarans, did they?

BENNINGS:
No, we didn't.

Go on home now.
Go on. It's all right.

I tried to warn you, Bethany.

Teaching Skags is a crime.
You know that.

No one is being hurt here.

So you say,
but I'm afraid the law is the law.

I thought you could
bend the local ordinances.

That's true, but this is one
I have no intention of bending.

Get away from me.

Sheriff gave you a chance
to leave town.

You should have taken it.

[GLASS SHATTERS]

MAN:
Get away from there! Go on, now!

- Best I can do.
- Thanks.

What's gonna happen to you now?

Don't worry.

This isn't the first time the sheriff and I
haven't seen eye to eye.

You didn't get to finish your lesson.

I'd like to hear the rest of it.

You know the story. Everyone does.

Everyone seems to have
their own version.

I'm curious to hear the way
you teach it to the Skagarans.

That wreck at their settlement,
was that their ship?

They used it 300 years ago
to go to Earth,

to bring our ancestors back here.

They were building colonies,
they needed workers.

You mean slaves?

It was a terrible crime.

Tell me about Cooper Smith.

That's where the stories
differ somewhat.

To the humans, he's a folk hero,
our liberator.

I'm sure
that's what you were taught.

But the Skagarans,
they call him Rokdar.

It means "butcher."

He and his men
burned the Skagaran ship,

destroyed their weapons.

They murdered most of them,
entire families.

Have you heard that version?

Smith wrote the first laws that kept
the Skagarans from going to school,

owning property, even marrying.

So they could never
enslave the humans again.

That's how they justified it.

Men like Bennings are happy
to carry on the tradition.

Sheriff wants to talk to you.

- Care for a shave, Mr. Archer?
- No, thanks.

You sure?
There's nothing like a barber shave

to make a man feel civilized.

I feel civilized enough.

Well, suit yourself.

- Thanks, Henry.
- Anytime, sheriff.

MACREADY:
Have a seat.

Skagaran whiskey.

It's illegal, but I let Henry keep
a bottle around for pulling teeth.

Packs a hell of a wallop.

I thought you were heading south
to raise blue horns.

That's the plan.

Then maybe you can tell me
why you were out in Skagtown

in the middle of the night.

That a crime?

Deputy says you and Miss Bethany
were teaching those children.

That's a crime.

But if I decided to lynch a Skagaran,

that'd be legal?

The law was laid down a long time ago
to protect men like you and me.

Protect us from what? Children?

You really want those children
to learn how to read?

How to do their numbers?

And then maybe they can
learn about

how they used to be in charge
around here,

how they had guns that could
kill a man with a beam of light

and that human beings were nothing
but their labor force, their property.

Is that what you want those
children to learn, Mr. Archer?

You're judging them on something
that happened over 200 years ago.

And it's my job to make sure
it never happens again.

Now, I'm not saying it's fair.

It's just the way it's always been.

I expect you to be out of town
in an hour.

What's gonna happen to Bethany?

She's been warned.
She knew the consequences.

Minimum sentence is 10 years.

Archer to Enterprise.

Go ahead, captain.

Any luck with those data modules?

Several of them were damaged,

but we managed to access
some of the logs.

I'm still working
on the translation, sir.

I'll meet you at the
landing coordinates in an hour.

There's something I have to do first.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

I was on my way out of town
and realized I forgot something.

BETHANY:
What are you doing?

ARCHER: It's called a jailbreak
where I come from.

It's called that here too.

Where do you expect me to go?

There are other settlements.
I'm sure they can use a good teacher.

- Things won't be different there.
- Maybe not.

But you won't be spending
10 years in prison.

[BENNINGS COUGHS]

It was Archer.

[BENNINGS COCKS GUN]

They couldn't have gotten far.

Get Nash and Franklin.

[COCKS GUN]

Archer to Enterprise.

Lock the transporter
onto my position.

- There are two of us.
- Drop that, whatever it is!

[BENNINGS GRUNTS]

T'POL:
Did anyone see you transport?

ARCHER: I didn't exactly have time
to find a secluded spot.

These are volatile
and suspicious people.

Your disappearance
may have consequences.

I've removed the projectile,
but her injuries were extensive.

Will she make it?

I believe so,

but there are a few things about
her physiology I don't understand.

What do you mean?

Aren't you familiar
with this woman's ancestry?

The cranial genes are recessive,
which explains her human appearance.

My guess is they came
from her maternal grandmother.

She's one-quarter Skagaran.

You heard the stories same as me.

Cooper Smith said the Skags
could move through thin air

from one place to another.

Maybe you ought to
get your eyes checked, Bennings.

- Archer's a human.
- He's working with them.

- You don't know that.
- What was he doing out in Skagtown?

And why'd he stick up for Draysik
in the saloon yesterday?

Because you were being
a horse's ass.

And who was he talking to
on that little box he had?

It was the Skags.

They helped him escape.

This is what we were afraid of, Mac.

That they'd try to take over again.

It's time to put an end to this.

You have something in mind?

I say we ride out there tonight
and burn them out.

I guarantee you
there'll be plenty of volunteers.

Now you listen to me.

I'm not gonna murder those people

just because some stranger
spooked you with a parlor trick.

Now if I get some proof that
the Skagarans are up to something,

I'll take care of it.

You've always been
too soft on them, Mac.

And you've always harassed them
while I looked the other way.

And that's gonna change right now.

As long as you work for me,
our job is to enforce the law.

Understood?

Understood.

The story she told you
was basically true, captain.

The Skagaran ship
brought them here

to provide labor for a colony
they were trying to establish.

They apparently found the humans
suited to survive in this environment.

There are a lot of reports
of disciplinary problems,

and then, six months
after they arrived, the logs end.

ARCHER:
They kidnapped the wrong people.

TRIP:
So, what do we do?

They're humans.
We can't just leave them here.

We can't transport 6,000 people
back to Earth.

Once we've dealt with the Xindi,
we'll come back here,

do what we can to help them.

For now,

they deserve to know
that Earth hasn't abandoned them.

We need to talk.

MACREADY:
And you were born there?

I was born in upstate New York.

Spent most of my adult life
in San Francisco, though.

You've heard of San Francisco?

Pacific Coast.

Why didn't you tell us who you were?

I wasn't sure how you'd react.

We thought we'd better get
the lay of the land first.

Well, I can't say I blame you.

A part of me never believed
Earth even existed.

I thought it was something
people made up

because they couldn't stand
living here.

You taking us back?

We can't.

Not right now.

Anyway, our ship isn't big enough.

Someday we'll come back for you.

You...

You realize

it's not the same world
your ancestors left.

- A lot's changed in 300 years.
- You're telling me.

We've moved past things
like intolerance, prejudice.

The Skagarans abducted
my ancestors, captain,

turned them into slaves.

That was a long time ago.

Well, we tend to have long memory
when it comes to that sort of thing.

REED: Captain's been in there
quite a while.

T'POL: I imagine the sheriff has
a lot of questions.

Yeah.

We did what we had to do.

I understand,
but if you do make it back to Earth,

you're going to have to
leave all that behind.

[DOOR OPENS]

It's all right.

These folks aren't gonna
hurt anybody.

This is my first officer, T'Pol.

She's from a planet called Vulcan.

- Pleased to meet you.
- Ma'am.

Dr. Phlox reports that
his patient is doing much better.

Good.

I thought we'd bring Mr. MacReady--

[GUNSHOT]

Have your men drop those guns.

Let's talk this through, Bennings.

I never was one for talking.

[COCKS GUN]

ARCHER: Trust me, you don't want
to pick a fight with us, deputy.

Should have thought of that
before you threw in with the Skags.

We're not taking sides here.

Then where'd you get that machine
and those weapons?

These people are from Earth,
Bennings.

BENNINGS:
Earth?

You're lying.

I can prove it to you.

Just give me a chance.

[WHISPERING]
Go!

Lay down some fire!

[T'POL GRUNTS]

Stay back.

[COCKS GUN]

I'll kill her.

Secure the area!

Find the captain!

[COCKS GUN]

We're up too high to see it,
but your town is down there,

toward the right edge
of that mountain range.

How are you feeling?

I feel fine.

Not even a scar.

Dr. Phlox does excellent work.

You must think we're barbaric.

All the things humanity
has accomplished,

building ships like this,
traveling to other worlds...

And we're still down there
shooting each other.

The progress on Earth,
it didn't happen overnight.

But it was progress, all the same.

You've managed to change.

We haven't.

Even if you could take us back,
I don't think we're ready.

It may be a while before we're able
to start sending ships here.

My guess is,

by the time they arrive,
they'll find things have changed.

I think you're giving us
too much credit.

It's happening already.
I spoke with MacReady.

He agrees that
in light of recent events,

some of your laws
might be a little outdated.

BETHANY: Before people could travel
through space to other planets,

they had to get off the ground first.

Almost 40 years after
my human ancestors left Earth,

two brothers from Ohio
became the first human beings

to build a successful
flying machine.

Their names were Orville
and Wilbur Wright.

Would anyone like to see
a picture of their airplane?

Oh, you all would.

Well, here it is right here,

and you can see
here's Orville Wright,

and his brother Wilbur
is flying the plane.

Now, this is a machine
that actually...
