      You're a hundred feet away."
      "Shoot the hostage."
      "What?"
      "Take her out of the equation. Go for the good wound and he can't get to the plane with her. Clear shot."
      You're deeply nuts, you know that?
      'Shoot the hostage.' "
      "You shot me, I can't believe it. They're giving you a medal for shooting me, you little prick!"
      Harry......you TOLD me to."

      Reed is the best security chief in the all the series I reckon. Dude actually sought to develop fresh tactics for emerging threats, and considered the consequences of enemy strategy. The writers probably just got more time to spend on his lore, like with Odo. They got character growth, but Odo's was more about his juxtaposition of being a shapeshifter living with solids.

      Considering the timeline when Enterprise came out Reed was technically the first extra-solar Tactical Officer/Chief of Security i Starfleet and developed all the protocols and contingencies later used by the TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, and Prodigy crews. He came up with what became the "red alert" while under the influence of radiation that made him obsess over the security systems, he learned from prior encounters, and also was the first battlefield TO/CoS since he had to deal with; Klingons, Borg (unnamed at the time), Suliban, and Xindi Coalition before the Earth-Romulan War

    The writers once again forget that Vulcans are a lot stronger than Humans and T'pol ought to have been able to flip that guy without a problem instead of ineffectually struggling. At least they didn't make things worse. These early phase pistols didn't have any area-effect stun like the phasers from TOS onward would have.

    • @HitodamaKyrie
      @HitodamaKyrie 12 дней назад +1
