Allusions[]

  • The episode title is taken from A Scanner Darkly, a 1977 novel written by famed science fiction author Philip K. Dick. The title echoes a phrase from the Bible, "Through a Glass Darkly", from Corinthians 1:13. This in turn is similar to "Through the Looking Glass", a season three episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, which took place in the Mirror Universe. That title however, was derived from a children's story by Lewis Carroll written in 1871.

Bloopers[]

  • After Archer and Mayweather come to the bridge and T'Pol says "Contact security", she's shown turning twice when the shooting takes place. [2]
  • The uniform of the dead Defiant crew member can briefly, and very faintly, be seen to still have the outline of the Enterprise NCC-1701 Delta insignia used for the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "Trials and Tribble-ations", which has been removed and replaced with the Defiant 's insignia for this episode. [2]
