I do wish they had brought more news and reports from the "outside world". I didn't really catch any of what "Churchill" (presumeably) said.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think he said something along the lines of "Now we have to choose between world order and world anarchy." I kind of got the impression that the UK had surrendered to Germany and now Churchill was taking propaganda orders from Goebbels.

I'm especially mystified of what Silik's
role will be. Y'know, if it turns out that 'Future Guy' is actually working to save Earth and the UFP
I'd be thrilled. I love those kinda twists. I kinda doubt it, but y'know, it'd be kewl. Nevertheless, I
eagarly await to discover Future Guy's identity (I hope we will).

I've suspected that Future Guy is human, actually. I think I stated something along those lines when the Xindi first appeared at the end of the second season. After all, it was Future Guy who arranged to have Archer informed about the threat, not Daniels. I think Future Guy has some issues with the Federation, but he doesn't seem to be looking to hurt Earth either.

Funny how they finally are able to make the TCW kinda interesting, but only when they're tieing it up.

Not really. Most of the TCW episodes we've seen have been written by B&B. This one was written by coto. You do the math.

As we consider the whole invasion the US thing, it is important to consider that the aliens may not have stepped in recently. If they've been there since before the start of the war, it is possible that the entire shape of the war is not as we recall it. That makes it darned difficult to judge the "what ifs".

Yeah, longer being since 1930.

Yeah, ok, so I like the "The Aliens Saved Edith Keeler" theory.
