 Sub-Commander T 'Pol orders Enterprise to' Sphere 41 ', in an attempt to destroy the entire sphere network. They arrive to find that the Sphere Builders have created a distortion field around it. Doctor Phlox determines that 12 – 15 minutes exposure will kill the crew. Undeterred, Commander Tucker modifies the deflector dish so that it can be used to destroy the sphere. As they approach, two Guardians arrive and begin damaging the ship's systems, but they cannot prevent its destruction. It implodes, setting off a chain reaction that successfully destroys the rest of the spheres, ending all spatial anomalies in the region.
