TrekToday's sleuth has chimed in with not only the premise info for an upcoming episode, "Dear Doctor" (going before cameras this week according to the site's source(s)), but an extended summary minus the episode's conclusion. The episode involves the Enterprise finding astronauts from a planet suffering from disease, and Archer decides to aid in finding a cure. Throughout the course of the episode, the aliens reveal they had been previously visited by the Ferengi, and they ask Archer for warp technology, putting Archer in a difficult position akin to the Vulcans' own position toward humanity. The episode also features the reprise of Kelly Waymire as Elizabeth Cutler ("Strange New World"), who develops a romantic interest in Doctor Phlox, who reveals that his species are called 'Denobulans'.
'Dear Doctor,' while featuring a main plot that heavily involves Captain Archer, will also explore the character of Dr. Phlox. The story is structured around a letter Phlox is writing to a certain Doctor Lucas, and throughout the episode viewers will hear voice-overs of Phlox reading the letter. One major character development that is presented through Phlox's eyes is his first on-board romance, as Ensign Cutler (first seen in 'Strange New World') develops romantic feelings for him. In addition, in this episode Phlox mentions that the members of his race are called the 'Denobulans.'
As part of the episode's main story, the Enterprise encounters a pre-warp shuttle, flying through space less than a light-year away from an M-Class planet. Scans reveal two weak lifesigns in the shuttle, and Archer orders the shuttle taken in and the occupants brought to sickbay. Once there, Phlox discovers the aliens are dying from an unknown disease.
Archer asks Phlox to wake up one of the alien astronauts, who wakes up relieved when he sees he has been found by others. The alien astronaut explains to Archer that he is from the nearby planet Valakis, which is slowly being destroyed by the disease he also suffers from. The astronauts were one of four teams sent out into space, hoping to tell someone about the plight of their planet. During the voyage they developed the symptoms of the disease, which can lie dormant for years, but luckily they at least survived long enough for Enterprise to find them. The astronaut implores Archer to come to the aid of his planet, as otherwise many people will die.
T'Pol urges him to be careful not to contaminate a pre-warp civilization, but Archer still orders the ship to set course for Valakis. Once there, he meets with Esaak, the director of a research center dedicated to finding a cure. Esaak says that very little progress is being made on finding a cure, but thanks to the technological expertise Enterprise will be able to provide, he hopes they will still be able to defeat the disease.
