What Season 2 of Star Trek: Enterprise

The second season opens with Archer caught in the Temporal Cold War, while the Enterprise endures a Suliban invasion and the captain remains trapped in a distant future. From there, the ship runs into the Borg, the Romulans and the Klingons, who have put a bounty on Archer's head. Scott Bakula plays the captain, who leads a crew still learning to deal with species humanity barely knows. T'Pol, the Vulcan officer, keeps secrets of her own that affect several storylines. Trip, Reed, Hoshi, Phlox and Mayweather round out a group that must survive with more modest technology than later ships.
