ENT's "Home" really should have been two parts. Let's see a frightened Earth recovering from the Xindi attack, let's see all of Archer's debriefing by the Vulcans and Starfleet, let's have Trip return to his parents' house (they're not dead, and he has two more siblings!) and grieve and be comforted.

And speaking of families, why didn't anyone besides T'Pol, whose planet was not attacked by the Xindi, go to visit theirs? Even if Malcolm and his parents weren't speaking, he still has a sister. Hoshi's parents are still around. Or even, gods forbid, some of the lower-decks folks (Rostov, Hess, Kelso).

But no, it's more important to waste time on Evil Gargoyle Alien Nazis and time-travel. Or Orion slave girls. Or a spectacularly improbable group of xenophobes trying to take over the world, or something.
