剧情
Xindi议会。一位灵长族Xindi人发言说地球舰出现在神域(混沌空域)纯属偶然，而昆虫族代表坚称那是入侵的前兆。最后双方同意共同密切监视进取号的动向。
进取号上，亚契由于目前为止他们尚未搜集到Xindi人的有用信息，必须现在冒险听取一艘货船船长提供的情报，尽管那船长有点不对劲。佐藤在餐厅和新来的陆军特攻队队员相谈甚欢。塔克一边要忙调查货舱里的重力异常现象，一边要忍受自己不断梦见妹妹在佛罗里达被害。伏拉士建议他接受瓦肯人的神经按摩疗法，但塔克和特珀都不肯做。
货船船长的情报把亚契一行人带到一颗 Trellium 矿藏丰富但大气被严重污染的行星。亚契和李德下去会见矿区总管。那人戴着空气过滤器，向他们出示一根Xindi劳工手上砍下来的手指，但要用液态的铂金交换他的自由。亚契只好把进取号继电保护的铂金涂层刮下来和塔克回去。两人见到劳工，发觉自己竟也沦为阶下囚。Xindi人同意帮助两人逃狱，又说这里所有的矿工都是囚徒，作为报答两人要设法把他们都带走。
进取号也碰上麻烦，几艘重武装的货船正驶近行星，他们又和地表的外勤队失去联系。李德要带领搜救队下去。海耶少校则提出改由特攻队前往，要安全人员留守以免敌人强行登舰，得到特珀支持。特攻队搭乘另一艘航天飞机下去。此时亚契、塔克和Xindi劳工沿一条废弃的电浆管道往外爬，并从劳工话中得知Xindi人有五个不同的种族，彼此都不满对方当政。矿区总管发现他们逃狱，转接电浆线路迫使三人从管道口冲出，和矿区保安碰个满怀，Xindi劳工见此声称自己实被另两个胁迫作人质。
突然特攻队从天而降，一番激烈交火后救回亚契和塔克。亚契恐吓Xindi劳工说要把他留在矿区，而劳工提出以提供Xindi母星的方位为交换。特攻队趁大雾扫射一阵，带着受伤的Xindi劳工毫发无损地逃出。特珀说到来的“货船”分明就是战舰，命令航天飞机同步入坞，随后进取号以最大曲速离开。
Xindi劳工伤重，终于不治。临死前他把行星坐标告诉了伏拉士。特珀被伏拉士说服，同意去说服塔克试试瓦肯神经按摩疗法，所以她脱下上衣让塔克替她做背部按摩，然后她再按摩塔克。
进取号到达Xindi劳工提供的坐标，船员眼前却是一大片残骸——行星在 120 年前就已经被毁，扫描读数显示其金属与合金成分和先前攻击地球之Xindi探测器相同。亚契不明白Xindi人借口 400 年后地球会摧毁Xindi母星而进攻是出于什么动机，那时他们的母星分明早就不在了。尽管重力异常现象开始蔓延，亚契仍命令进取号深入神域去进一步调查。
进取号进入异象地带在Xindi议会引起不小的震动，各族代表再次争论进取号的去留问题。昆虫族代表发言: 如果武器不迅速完工，不管议会允不允许，地球舰都将被击毁。
