10 Most Messed Up Deaths In Star Trek: Enterprise

10. First Past The Struts - Anomaly

Sometimes, it really is ok not to be first in the class. At least, Fuller must have been thinking that in the infinitesimal moments before he hit the deck in Anomaly. Credited as Enterprise's first fatality, Fuller had the dubious honour of being forever remembered as the first person in something. We assume, however, this is hardly the honour it sounds like.

When Enterprise was boarded by Osaarian pirates in Anomaly, Fuller was killed after being shot at point-blank range in Engineering. He was most likely dead before he hit the hull plating, which is the one mercy in this sad tale. Reed, in dialogue that was omitted from the episode, would go on to lay the melodrama on thick.

Fuller, apparently, had been hand-picked by Reed to serve on the ship. He had gone through the same training programs as him, he had learned more about photon torpedo technology than anyone else, and he had a young daughter as well. This daughter sent a letter to Reed, asking the latter to keep her daddy out of danger. 

We'll assume he didn't read it in time.

Poor Fuller. File this unfortunately soul as yet another crewman just trying to do their job in a galaxy that seems hell-bent on wiping out all humans.
