I can't say I was paying enough attention to be able to back up my read of it.
Were the Tholians in the mirror universe too? Attacking the mirror crew?
Willow: Were there dolphins? Tara: Yes. Many dolphins at the pound. Willow: Was there a camel? Tara: There was the front of a camel. A half-camel.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yup. Apparently it was the mirror Tholians who lured the Defiant into the rift. They were fishing for sentients from the other universe.
The best part of the episode? No theme song. The opening credits were done as if the show were being shown in the mirrorverse.
Actually, now that I watched the first ep, I remember what it was that really threw me about the second. I tuned in just as they were tracking down a Gorn who was doing contract work stripping technology from Defiant for the Tholians, so my first thought was that it was a story about the first meeting with the Gorns. Then Archer showed up in his Kirk suit, and I was all WTF?
It was very disquieting.

As cracktastic as the rest of the episodes were, that theme song made me gleeful.
Also, the preview for next week scared me and started me grumbling about canon again.

I decided to start catching up with eps from about halfway through the season. These two past episodes have been interesting what with not tying in with the us-verse characters. But what was with Archer talking to Mirror!Archer. I was confused. Was I supposed to be able to tell what was going on there?
I also missed the preview. Are they staying in the mirror verse?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Oh, thanks, 'Suela! A friend of mine was really interested in that, so much so that she wanted me to conjecture it for her.

Mirror!Archer had this whole inferiority complex about how much OurVerse! Archer had accomplished, so he started having visions of OurVerse!Archer telling him what to do. Sort of.
I also missed the preview. Are they staying in the mirror verse?
God, no. Thankfully. Although the next episode is apparently about Trip and T'Pol's hybrid child, so I'm not terribly thrilled.

Oh, OK. That makes sense. The Archer thing.
The second part, uh... no words.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I hve not watched an Enterprise episode since season 1, but comments on this ep prompted me to torrent it.
Question: how long has this show been this weird?
Are they staying in the mirror verse?
So we'll never know what happens?
Wait, I know: more killins' and political machinations and killins' and death and what-not....

Art Crawl!!!
What I didn't understand was -- why were they in the Mirror-Verse? And why do they go back to regular verse next week?
And was that the season finale of Andromeda on Friday?
