Star Trek: Every Redshirt Death Ranked From Worst To Best

14. Lt. Carlisle & Three Other Guys

Taking cover is super overrated!

Episode: The Changeling (S2E3)

Cause Of Death: Vaporized by Nomad

I'm lumping all four of these guys together because they all die exactly the same way: firing their phasers at the intelligent-space-probe-turned-psycho-killer known as Nomad. They don't even try to seek cover.

I feel like these all these guys are completely underestimating this thing that has already demonstrated that it can travel at warp speed, fire high-intensity energy bolts, and withstand photon torpedoes despite being roughly the size of your grandmother's vacuum cleaner.

Were they hungover? At least they got a few solid shots off, but when you’re facing off with a murdery space probe that wants to annihilate all imperfect organic life, I mean, come on guys. Duck.
