太空地雷區
企業號誤闖羅幕蘭人的星域,並且隱形的地雷黏在甲板上.李德上尉自願去清除太空中的地雷.
為了多了解他的武器軍官，亞契邀請李德和他共進早餐。但是李德似乎不喜歡討論工作以外的事情。正當亞契覺得洩氣時，特珀通知艦長發現了一個星圖上沒有記載的星系，且偵測到其中有一顆是M級行星。當企業號進入這顆行星的軌道時，因大爆炸而震動，艦上的幾個區域受損，幾名船員受傷，包括星。李德發現異星人的軌道地雷附著在船殼上，造成了企業號的損傷。因為這些地雷有癱瘓企業號的可能，李德穿上太空服去進行拆除雷管的工作。亞契不確定李德拆雷工作是否能順利完成，他叫崔普準備替代方案，也就是拆卸地雷所在的船殼。崔普說那會使大部分的脈衝管線曝露在外，亞契告訴他無論如何還是要開始動手進行，艦長把它當作最後的方法
當李德進行工作時，他突然發現一艘異星艦在附近解除隱形。這艘船呼叫企業號，然而翻譯器無法譯出這種新語言，星又在醫療室，無法執勤。異星艦對企業號發射警告彈，亞契命令梅偉瑟離開，慢慢開，免得傷到還在船殼辛苦工作的李德。梅偉瑟還得很小心，免得撞到此地其他的地雷。
李德拆雷的工作有了進展，但是正當他的工作有進展的時候，企業號的移動啟動了地雷。一跟尖刺從空雷伸出，穿透了李德的腳，把他釘在船殼上。亞契為了解除雷管並且救他的武器軍官，親自前往船殼。因為李德無法移動，亞契必須依照他的指示來解除雷管。李德覺得太危險了，但亞契堅持說他學得很快。
同時，星在醫療室翻譯出了這神秘的異星語言。異星人命令企業號馬上離開，否則會被擊毀。他們自稱來自「羅幕蘭星際帝國」。只有特珀有聽過這個種族，她指出這是個具侵略性而且領域性很強的種族。亞契命令星發一篇訊息，解釋船員們遇到的困難。
在船殼上，亞契努力的拆除雷管，他也試著要和李德閒聊，但這似乎無法使武器軍官的緊張平靜下來。李德慌亂的說，他不覺得和長官交往在星艦上有什麼用處。亞契說，但是，在星艦上船員們必須互相倚靠，企業號的任務不是一般的任務。他們繼續聊天。顯然的，李德為了企業號準備犧牲自己。亞契卻決心解救他的軍官和企業號。
在艦橋，船員們再次收到羅幕蘭人的呼叫，堅持要企業號馬上離開。羅幕蘭人知道李德被困在外面，但是仍然要求丟棄那區的船殼。亞契以為解除了雷管，其實是重新啟動了雷管，這使事情更麻煩，他只得快速的重新設定。李德知道他們必須要把整個空雷拆開，但是沒有時間了。李德再次表示自願犧牲自己的生命，甚至拔開了他的氧氣供應管。亞契不允許，他趕緊從自己的太空服上，接一條輔助氧氣供應管給李德。
亞契最後想出一個危險的方法，他帶了兩個穿梭艇的船殼版，和一個電漿火槍去李德那裡。崔普拆開那區的船殼，當他們漂走的時候，亞契用火槍鋸開釘住李德的尖刺，使他和船殼分開。空雷開始自動啟動，亞契和李德各自抓住一塊穿梭艇船殼版，用力跳出，離開危險區域。空雷爆炸。當羅幕蘭人追上企業號時，亞契和李德及時趕回船上，特珀下令啟動曲速航行。企業號安全離開後，亞契和李德還在回想剛才的危險情形。

Archer invites Reed to breakfast, hoping to become better acquainted with his armory officer. Reed, however, seems reluctant to discuss anything other than work. Just as Archer's getting frustrated, T'Pol alerts the captain that an uncharted system has been detected and one of the planets is Minshara class. As Enterprise enters the planet's orbit, it is rocked by massive explosions, damaging sections of the ship and injuring several crewmembers, including Hoshi Sato. Reed is able to discern that the ship has been hit by an alien orbital mine, which has attached itself to the hull. As the mine has the power to disable Enterprise, Reed suits up and heads out to defuse it. Uncertain that Reed will succeed in his task, Archer suggests an alternate plan to Trip Tucker -- detach the section of hull plating surrounding the mine, allowing it to drift away. Trip notes that this will expose a good portion of the impulse manifold, but Archer tells him to get started on it anyway -- the captain will consider the plan a last resort.
As Reed works, he suddenly becomes aware of a strange alien vessel de-cloaking nearby. The ship hails Enterprise, but the universal translator can't quite get a lock on the strange language, and Hoshi is out of commission in sickbay. The aliens begin to fire warning shots at Enterprise, so Archer orders Travis Mayweather to move them out of harm's way -- slowly, so as not to injure Reed, still hard at work on the hull. Mayweather must also be careful not to collide with any of the other mines in the field.
Reed begins to make some headway in his efforts to disarm the mine, but just as he's making progress, the motion from Enterprise jostles the mine. A spike thrusts out of the mine and through Reed's leg, pinning him to the ship's hull. Hoping to disarm the mine and save his officer, Archer heads out to the hull. With Reed unable to reach the mine, Archer must depend on him for instructions to disable it. Reed thinks it's too dangerous, but Archer insists that he's a quick study.
Meanwhile, Hoshi is translating the mysterious alien language from sickbay. The aliens have ordered Enterprise to leave immediately or be destroyed -- they have annexed the planet in the name of the Romulan Star Empire. Only T'Pol has heard of this species, and she reveals that they are an aggressive, territorial race. Archer orders Hoshi to compose a response explaining the crew's desperate circumstances.
Out on the hull, Archer works painstakingly to de-activate the mine. He also tries to engage Reed in casual conversation, but it doesn't seem to calm the armory officer's nerves. Rattled, Reed reveals that he doesn't believe socializing with superior officers has any place on a starship. Archer, however, points out that the crewmembers all have to depend on one another, and that Enterprise's mission is not a typical one. As they continue to talk, it becomes apparent that Reed is prepared to sacrifice himself for the ship. Archer, however, is determined to save both his officer and Enterprise.
On the bridge, the crew is being hailed yet again by the Romulans, who insist that Enterprise leave. The Romulans know that Reed is trapped outside, but demand that the ship jettison the section of hull plating. Complicating things even further, the mine re-arms just as Archer believes he's defused it -- he is forced to quickly reset it again. Reed ascertains that they will now have to dismantle the entire mine, but there's no time. Reed once again volunteers to sacrifice himself, even going so far as to disconnect his air supply hose. Archer, however, won't have it, and quickly attaches the auxiliary air hose from his own suit to Reed's.
Desperate, Archer comes up with one last-ditch plan, and requests two shuttlepod hatches and a plasma torch. Trip detaches the section of hull plating, and, as they drift away, Archer uses the torch to free Reed from the hull. As the mine begins to arm itself, Archer and Reed grab their shuttlepod hatches and launch themselves out of harm's way. The mine explodes. As the Romulans descend on Enterprise, Archer and Reed make it back to the ship just in time for T'Pol to order the ship to warp speed. As Enterprise makes a safe getaway, Archer and Reed are left to ponder their ordeal.
