    Man, I love the bit where Archer is already force feeding Trip a plate of shit for giving a person kept in sexual slavery a glimpse of a better life, and to add insult to injury he’s all, “And on top of it all, now the Vissian couple will have to wait to be able to conceive.”

    Archer is the worst captain.

      Archer being the worst captain, while being on track to becoming a founder of the Federation etc. was what made me bail on the show for a long time.

      I really came to loathe Archer, and writing T’Pol as having respect for him really damaged her character over time.

        I think thats because he is making logical decisions, we hate that makes her respect him I’m still at the tail end of season 2, so I’m ready for my disdain to grow. Plus he is a nepo baby.

          logical decisions

          T’Pol: Captain, we found a new M-class planet. We should proceed very carefully step by step, let’s start with scanning -

          Archer: Boooring! Who’s coming with me camping on the unexplored world? Leave the protective equipment, bring beer! Last one on the shuttle is a stupid vulcan!
