[Sato is questioning the wisdom of the Vulcans' choice of location when making first contact with the Humans]

Ensign Hoshi Sato:
An alien species makes contact with the United States. It could have made a lot of other countries nervous.

Sub-Commander T'Pol:
What's your point?

Ensign Hoshi Sato:
It seems to me that we're gonna run into similar problems: we get invited to dinner, and before you know it, we're accused of taking sides in a war.

Sub-Commander T'Pol:
Contacting new worlds always involves unexpected risks. The High Command has very specific protocols regarding planetary conflicts. Eventually, Captain Archer will have to... create some directives of his own.
