Phlox is pleased to see his wife, but the conference raises a troubling issue — Phlox is the only person onboard Enterprise who knows that T'Pol is suffering from Pa'nar Syndrome, an incurable Vulcan disease. He has been able keep the effects of the disease at bay, but he knows that T'Pol will soon need supplemental medications. Otherwise, she might die.

TRIVIA

In 2002, Viacom (owners of Paramount and "Enterprise") mandated that all its TV series would devote at least one episode to the subject of AIDS awareness. Enterprise's response, aired in early 2003, was the episode #2.14, "Stigma", in which T'Pol is revealed to have contracted an intimately-transmitted, incurable disease.
