The Enterprise comes up with some technobabble way of destroying the spheres with its deflector dish. They manage to destroy the spheres after fighting some of the spherebuilders. Meanwhile, the planetkiller with one reptilian escort reach Earth. Archer and co. arrive and attack it, trying to get into transporter range where they'll destroy it from the inside. An Andorian ship arrives to help Archer and it destroys the escort. Archer and the other humans beam onto the planetkiller and set some bombs, but Archer is "killed" before he can beam out (Reed and Hoshie make it). The A and M Xindi take the surviving humans to rendevous with the Enterprise and everyone is saddened by Archer's death. An Aquatic ship gives the Enterprise a lift back to Earth. It drops off the Enterprise in orbit and leaves. Enterprise tries to hail Earth but no one responds. A shuttlepod is sent out to investigate. It flies over San Francisco...and is attacked by a bunch of P-51s. Then the camera angle changes to a Nazi POW (?) camp. A bunch of Nazi officers are around pointing at a badly injured Archer on a cot, wondering who he is, what uniform he has on. Then an alien (I don't recognize the species) walks up in a Nazi uniform. That's it.
(No spoiler space because its in the title, right?)
WTFWTFWTFWTF
They did
yet another fucking deflector dish save?
Enterprise is forever cemented in my mind as the shittiest of all Trek, right alongside
Nemesis.
And... hello sensors, where are you? Shouldn't you be scanning and picking up the
utter lack of human space presence?
Captain Chewbacca: You're getting your TOS episodes mixed up. Kirk and co. pose as Nazis in
Patterns of Force, in which a Federation cultural observer takes over the planet and models it after the Nazis. Kirk's flame has to die in
City on the Edge of Forever, in which the woman in question has to die because if she doesn't, she'll influence the American government to delay entry into WW2, supposedly giving Germany the time it needs to develop atomic weapons and successfully subjugate the world with it's combination of rockets and nukes.
(Minor hijack: While Nazi Germany's development and deployment of nuclear weapons is known to be impossible due to the reality of WW2, it's possible that Earth historians have over time twisted the history of the early to mid 20th century to paint the Nazis as a greater threat than they really were... although it's arguable that this has already been accomplished to some degree today, given how many people believe this in real life, and that this widespread misconception has never been corrected in the 23rd century.)
