A group of Ferengi board ''Enterprise'' with the intent to rob it, and the only one who can stop them is Trip...in his underwear.
to:
While the Ferengi wheel trolleys in and start stealing the sickbay equipment, Trip breaks out of decon and starts spying on them while still in his undies. The Ferengi then start stealing more objects, including weapons, clothing, chairs, food, and the dedication plaque, then they drag all the women, plus Archer, into the launch bay. They handcuff Archer to a handhold, wake him up, and demand to know where the "vault" is. He tries to explain that the ''Enterprise'' doesn't have one, but they don't believe him. They discuss the situation, revealing that one of them is named Krem and is Ulis's cousin, and Archer sees Trip.
When Krem plans on selling the ''Enterprise'' women into slavery, Archer pretends that the ''Enterprise'' does indeed have a vault, full of gold bars. He offers to help them find the vault if he can keep half the gold, then downgrades it to 35%, but the Ferengi aren't interested and decide to proceed without his help. Krem then makes Archer help him load the stolen objects onto his and Ulis's ship, and the two talk. Archer learns that the species is materialistic and that Krem is at the mercy of Ulis when it comes to business but doesn't seem to mind. Archer then sees Trip approaching and gets Krem out of the way by having him retrieve food and water, which Krem does, but not without handcuffing Archer again.
Trip tells Archer that all the hyposprays and phase-pistols have been stolen, so Archer tells Trip to get the hypospray that woke him from the launch bay. Krem comes back, Trip leaves, and he injects T'Pol with the
Trip borrows a science officer's uniform, while T'Pol observes Ulis with two other Ferengi named Grish and Muk in sickbay. Ulis and Grish think the imaging chamber is the vault, but Muk isn't sure. They open it and find a medical tool, which Muk wants to keep, and the others only
In engineering, Krem has Archer take apart the warp core, and Archer tries to convince Krem to help him put the others in the brig in exchange for half the money, but Krem refuses. Meanwhile, Grish and Muk try to interrogate Porthos, and when he doesn't understand, they wonder if Archer wants to eat him since he's a "lower life-form". Muk puts Porthos into a cargo container in the launch bay, but then sees Trip and chases him, telling the other Ferengi that a crew member is awake. Trip runs into the mess hall, where he steals Muk's weapon, but is attacked with an energy whip.
While Krem and Archer load items into the Ferengi ship, Archer tries to convince Krem that he's being exploited, then the rest of the Ferengi enter with Trip, considering taking what they have to avoid running into more crew. Muk and Grish prepare to start hauling the women onto the ship, but Trip stops them, pretending that he will show them the vault if they leave the women alone, and that Hoshi is his
He encounters T'Pol, who pretends the humans are keeping her prisoner. He asks her to give him ''oo'mox'' (a type of Ferengi foreplay involving stroking the earlobes) and she does, but then nerve pinches him and leaves with the keys to Archer's handcuffs and a phase-pistol. Trip leads the rest of the Ferengi to the bio-matter resequencer and pretends it's the vault, then T'Pol stuns them all.
She rescues Archer, then the two, now armed, force the Ferengi to give everything back and Archer gets Porthos back. The Ferengi then get handcuffed on their own ship, except for Krem, who Archer warns that he will tell the authorities about him and his species. The ''Enteprise'' leave, with Krem's coworkers still handcuffed.
