Admiral Forrest learns from Ambassador Soval that the sacred Vulcan monastery at P'Jem has been destroyed, a result of Captain Archer's discovery of a surveillance station beneath the sanctuary and his sharing the finding with the hostile Andorians. Blaming both Archer and T'Pol for the incident, the Vulcan High Command decides to remove T'Pol from her position on Enterprise, and arranges to send a ship to take her back to Vulcan.
