They cranked it up way past 10, all the way to 24.
You mean the “justify American war crimes after 9-11” plot?
Ya they smeared the 9/11 on real thick. Blew my mind to learn they were ahead of the curve on the torture:
The episode debuted nearly two years before Americans ever heard the words “enhanced interrogation.”

Scott Bakula is a good actor but he sold the adventurous naivete of S1-2 Archer much better than the moody and distraught Archer in S3. Thankfully season 4 went back to the original spirit.
S4 when he fights Shran with such confidence and gamesmanship, that’s my favorite Archer.
YES haha he really got some space smarts by then
Also if you think about it the sphere builders messed with the timeline to promt that and made the federatation act.
Hell yeah don’t mess with Starfleet bro they took Florida bro it’s just not right.
