Star Trek: Enterprise: Unexpected (2001)
Season 1, Episode 5
7/10
Another 'Trip is an idiot' episode
2 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
So far, Trip seems to be a foil for intelligent thinking on this show. Either he's a paranoid maniac, a hypochondriac or a fool for love. His fake southern accent only makes him seem more slow-witted and not believable as a chief engineer, who is typically one of the smartest people on the ship.

I like a lot of what this show offers so far. I really hope I don't end up hating Trip and that ruins it for me.

It's also very early 2000s that Trip basically gets alien-raped, ends up 'pregnant' and it's all wry grins from the Captain and Dr Phlox about his predicament. Imagine if this would have been the reaction to a female character under the same circumstances.
