20 Most Messed Up Deaths From The Star Trek Movies
11. Fatal Facelift
It's one more badmiral for the bingo card. The only prize is more free stuff from the replicator. Ranking ninth on our list of 'The 10 Worst Admirals in Star Trek,' Insurrection's Admiral Dougherty was hardly the baddest of the bad. Whatever his relatively redeeming features, however, Dougherty had made his bed with the Son'a for a metaphasic miracle cure. He'd have to lie in it. Forever.
'Dougherty's out' was one hell of a way to go. The Admiral didn't mind a bit of forced displacement, but he drew the line at mass murder of the Ba'ku. Ru'afo begged to differ with a punch to the face, and a throw over the balustrade. Things got quickly more messed up from there. Ru'afo rammed Dougherty head-first into a glass-fronted cabinet, hoisted him into the air, and thrust him down onto one of the ghoulish cosmetic surgery chairs.
The squeamish amongst us — this writer included for the longest while — could close our eyes at what happened next. Dougherty definitely couldn't, nor ever again. Trapped between the pincers, the admiral had more than just 20 years taken off. His whole face was stretched to breaking point. And to think, those latter-day hippies could have just shared in the first place! But then, who wants to live forever if it's just hacky sack and birdwatching.
