4 and a half minutes, or 5 and a half with the minute long title intro, into this and i'm already getting heavy vibes just from this screen cap that I'm going to want to chuck the writer, and everyone who signed off on this into the sun.

There's a slight problem here, this is an ENT Prime Directive episode, which considering the track record for PD episodes post TNG (which even TNG has some stinker PD episodes I would add), so this is entirely on brand by this point. Especially if you take a look at the other ~~notable~~ notorious PD episode ENT has, Dear Doctor.
Like if you go look up the scene of Archer chastising Trip in this episode, you'll find a bunch of comments about "This is why the Prime Directive exists" with zero critical thought whatsoever.
it was almost par for the course; the difference is that the other personal development episodes didn't re-enforce an clearly discriminatory social hierarchy like this one did.
