Zorro's Ride Into Terror - S1-E8
Stupidity: When Diego sees that the passage door is opened, he invites Sergeant Garcia to sleep in his bed. However, Diego never tries to close it, and during the rest of the scene, nobody (even Captain Monasterio) seems to see it open.
405 Method Not Allowed - S4-E5
Stupidity: Elliot and his crew are trying to take down the Dark Army and Whiterose, they are being monitored by them via surveillance vans which Elliot just burned, etc. However, with Elliot and friends trying to be secretive he somehow manages to text Phillip Price on his cell phone about Tyrell. Phones are the easiest to intercept. Whiterose doesn't trust Phillip and plans on killing Elliot once their projects transferred to Africa. (00:07:20)
Emohawk - Polymorph II - S6-E4
Stupidity: On the walk back to Starbug, the Emohawk jumps on Lister's head to disguise itself as Lister's hat, but it leaves itself in its natural form whilst the crew continue to walk. The Emohawk is supposed to be disguising itself to fool the crew into making them think it is any everyday object. The Emohawk eventually changes into Lister's hat, but leaving itself in its natural form even for just a small amount of time could blow its cover. (00:18:15)
Stupidity: An explanation is given for the reason why the bombs planted on the Gundam are not activated by remote control (they have plastic explosive in the regiment but not remote controls!), but no reason why they set the timer for the explosion to 30 minutes, way too much to be of any use in combat against the Gundam. Moreover, if the vulnerable spot of the Gundam shield were situated where it explodes at the beginning, it'd be completely useless.
Stupidity: An RAF officer is wearing a gold stripe on his shoulder boards instead of blue. On his lapels, he wore a corporal's insignia, and on his left pocket was an American colonel 's eagle. A soldier described as British was wearing American platoon sergeant stripes.
Stupidity: Adam, Jason's replacement on Bravo team is operating as Bravo 1. He's in the midst of reloading his carbine rifle with a fresh magazine when he sees a suicide bomber running towards his team so instead of drawing his pistol which takes 0.7-0.8 seconds; he's a trained professional so that timing is reasonable; he instead charges the suicide bomber and dies in the explosion. It would've taken less time to shoot the threat than to charge him. (00:07:00 - 00:08:00)
Stupidity: S1E8 Obsessed - Morgan and the detectives respond to the beach for a possible homicide. None of the detectives or Morgan are wearing protective gloves. Throughout the series, the detectives remind Morgan to wear gloves before touching evidence. However, she takes the pulse of the victim without gloves. (00:04:02)
Stupidity: The last remaining Xindi, in desperation, attempts to release the virus over the fan, despite the virus not being fully ready. However, it seems the only reason he didn't release the virus at that time was he had to seek cover from Archer and T'Pol shooting at him and to start shooting back at them. However, he had plenty of cover from the rooftop stairwell, which was right next to the fan, and he had enough time to dump out the contents over the fan.
Stupidity: Dr. Greg seems to catch some of the more obvious quirks of inmates attempting to take a large vial or bottle from the cabinet. Yet he doesn't seem to notice when Lizzie grabs a bottle of pills and pockets them from the rolling cart in front of him. (00:20:15 - 00:20:45)
Through the Valley of Shadows - S2-E12
Stupidity: Burnham and Spock find one person alive from the otherwise-dead crew, miraculously. They know Control can infect humans, they know how advanced it is, the entire setup screams "trap", and yet they don't even question whether Gant even might be under Control's...well, control. A simple scan would have turned up anomalies and they could have avoided what followed.
Storm Before the Calm: Part II - S1-E38
Stupidity: Shane could have easily avoided the blast from Lothor by simply flying away to dodge it. Instead, he just hovers over him and allows his Battlizer to be destroyed.
Reika Hayami and the Uninvited Guest - S1-E5
Stupidity: A rather unnecessary part of the plot focuses on the convict trying to learn Reika's last name by ordering something on her behalf to read the name on the bill. That's absurd; he couldn't possibly know if the bill would just have the number of the cabin on it instead, or the production company's, and quite frankly for such a VIP (the cruise itself was a one-evening trip around the bay just so fans could spend time with their idol Reika, and he knew that) the ship wouldn't even charge anything for a drink brought to her room.
Stupidity: When Kunte/Toby saws himself free from his leg irons, he removes only the one, and then runs off into the night, dragging the other one behind him, which makes no sense, and is quite audibly heard in the near distance.
