[quoteost_uid0="Michiel"][color=#000000ost_uid0]The only thing wrong with it is the usual time-travel stuff. If, when the parasite is destroyed in the future, it also dissapears in the past, Phlox and T'Pol would have absolutely no memory of them ever having been there in the first place. So when they destroy the first couple of parasites, they could not have noticed them dissapearing in the earlier scans, and they would not remember having destroyed them. Etc. [/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]Interestingly, this would mean that Archer would have been instantly cured. Because he would never have had the first few parasites they eradicated, they would have targetted some different parasites. Since after killing them, those parasites would never have existed, they would have eradicated some other parasites. And so on, and so on, until they were all gone.[/colorost_uid0]
