Void - S5-E17

Stupidity: Lance and Lana's actions at the end don't make sense, other than to set up conflict for the plot. Lance won't give Lana a shot. Lana steals a vile and after Lance injects Lex (to stop him, fine), he finds Lana, who is trying to inject herself. He stops her, throws her back, then proceeds to try and inject her. He could have just waited and let her do it herself, or taken the vile and left. Lana is then scared that Lance is about to inject her when that's what she wanted in the first place.

Hidden - S5-E3

Stupidity: When Clark is trying to sneak Lana out of the house, they walk past the front door in order to go through the kitchen door, where they get caught. It makes no sense to not use the front door. This way Lana is already outside, the whole goal in the first place, should his mom or dad see them. Not to mention the fact that Lana's car is still parked outside and Johnathan or Martha would have seen it, so they shouldn't be surprised to see her in the house.

Spirit - S4-E18

Stupidity: When Lois, possessed by Dawn, comes downstairs and says she's going to the prom and Clark is taking her, Clark doesn't think for a moment it could be Dawn. He already knows Dawn can posses others, those people don't act like themselves, Dawn is obsessed with the prom, Lois isn't acting like herself, and Lois is now not only suddenly prom obsessed for no reason, but wants to go with Clark when she said that would never happen.

Spirit - S4-E18

Stupidity: After the accident, Dawn is in spirit form on the road trying to wave down an oncoming car (driven by Martha Kent). Dawn doesn't know she's a spirit that can pass through objects at that point. Since Martha can't see her, she keeps driving straight towards Dawn. Dawn sees the vehicle isn't slowing down and instead of simply stepping out of the way to avoid getting hit, she turns her back, revealing to the audience that objects can pass through her now.

The Alternateville Horror - S4-E8

Stupidity: Colin tells the group he saw a ghost (a non-corporal shade) who walked through the door. They laugh at him and blame it on what he was watching on TV or too much sliding. Given everything the group has seen, vampires, a dragon, etc, they should have least checked it out. Quinn himself was once on the astral plane and nobody could see him except one girl who thought she was seeing a ghost, and he could walk through solid objects.

Slither - S3-E22

Stupidity: Throughout the series, people in the group always say they need to stick together and only separate if absolutely necessary. Here, Quinn and Rembrandt take a vacation pretty far away from Wade and Maggie (they had to fly to their destination). And they do so knowing they have no way to directly communicate with the others (i.e. cell phones) in case something goes wrong, which it does. They get bumped from their flight, but it might have been easier to get Wade and Maggie to fly to them.

Data World - S4-E17

Stupidity: One of the hotel rules is "no singing in public places." Rembrandt ignores this and starts singing, despite pleads from the bartender. The group is already questioning how they got inside the hotel, why there's no charge but nothing is free, and Rembrandt even wants to know what the hell is going on. Rembrandt has been on enough worlds to see what happens when people break the rules. It's stupid for him to start singing in a place he knows nothing about as if this rule didn't apply to him.

Dead Man Sliding - S3-E10

Stupidity: And the end, after sliding to another world, the group is caught on film by someone in her house. Quinn goes (illegally) into the home to get the tape. There is no point to this. Throughout the series, many people have seen them arrive, or leave, and usually when there's a mix up with one of their doubles, they spend so much time trying to convince people they are in fact from another world but can't prove it. Quinn doesn't even bother to see how long they're going to be on that world first.

Bishop73

Sight Unseen - S6-E13

Stupidity: When Jonas says he saw a creature go through the walls, people want to assume he must be hallucinating. Yes they sweep the base, but Carter questions its ability to pass through solid matter as if she's never seen that happen. When Jonas sees a creature again on the device with Carter there, she gives a look like he's going crazy rather than at least try to use a TER to scan for it. Plot wise it seems this is done just so O'Neill can leave the base and spread the "infection."

Mr. Monk Buys A House - S7-E1

Stupidity: There's no reason for Jake to just chain Monk and Natalie up instead of just killing them once Monk figured out what was happening. He killed Cassie because Monk was onto her and then Ramone. Keeping them alive while he searches the house serves him no purpose.

Bishop73

Stupidity: When a known killer (someone in the show or movie that we've seen kill someone on purpose with no regards, or someone we're told already has) finds or catches the main character (s), he or she decides to tie them up or kidnap them instead of just killing them. Leaving the main character (s) alive only serves the plot to allow them to escape or otherwise result in their being rescued and results in the killer being arrested or even killed.

Bishop73

Stupidity: After Paul is shot, he takes medical supplies from the hospital to his office. However, he doesn't think to take Lidocaine, or some other local anesthetic, knowing that the procedure will hurt.

Bishop73

Dial M for Murtaugh - S3-E11

Stupidity: Eve, the assassin trying to kill the Senator, tells Cole to move or she'll shoot through him, rather than just shooting him. She already killed an agent by shooting him in the back and had plenty of time to just shoot Cole, so there's no reason for her to avoid killing him.

Bishop73

Stupidity: When someone has duct tape put over their mouth and they're unable to scream for help, or warn someone coming in about a trap. Duct tape over the mouth easily comes off if you open up your mouth because it can't hold your jaw shut. And if you need a little help getting it off your lips because you can't open your mouth wide enough, just stick out your very wet tongue.

Bishop73

In a Mirror, Darkly (2) - S4-E19

Stupidity: When the Gorn attacks Archer, one of the MACO officers raises his weapon to fire, but fears hitting Archer, so he doesn't shoot. But then he attacks the Gorn with the butt of his weapon. He was close enough to hit him, he could have just stood over him and fired without fear of hitting Archer.

Bishop73

Carpenter Street - S3-E11

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.

Bishop73

Stupidity: When Susan is on the balcony with the man trying to kill her, she pulls out her gun with one hand (she's leaning on the other hand). He says she won't shoot because the gun's magazine has fallen out and Susan gives up and drops the gun. However, if there is a round in the chamber, the gun can still fire without a magazine in it. As trained as Susan is suppose to be, she should know this. But, if there's not a round in the chamber, then, as a trained agent, Susan is ineptly prepared to use her gun. If there's not a round in the chamber, pulling the trigger will not fire the gun nor will pulling the trigger chamber a round. But she would need both hands to chamber a round and she only has one hand free. There is the occasional gun that has a magazine disconnect safety, but it would be stupid for field agents to have one since they may be in a situation where they need to fire without a magazine in (such as this situation).

Bishop73

Repentance - S7-E13

Stupidity: When the prisoners escape, one takes Yediq hostage. Tuvok then tells the bridge to lock onto Yediq and beam him (to safety). However, when Iko took Seven hostage earlier, Tuvok never suggested beaming her to safety.

Bishop73

Unforgettable - S4-E22

Stupidity: When Kellin is hit with the neurolytic emitter, it erases her memories of the outside world. However, the effects aren't immediate and take some time (enough to get her to sick bay and have time to talk to Chakotay). However, she spends her time telling Chakotay to help her remember their relationship, etc. when her memory is gone instead of just making a recording of herself describing the relationship and her feeling which can then be shown to her after her memory is gone. She might not believe the recording, but seeing herself discuss the situation would be better than just relying on Chakotay (who will soon be a stranger she never met) telling her something so unbelievable.

Bishop73

The Forecaster (No. 163) - S4-E10

Stupidity: Farnsworth tells Charnquist they've been compromised by a girl listening in on their phone calls and that Charnquist needs to take care of it. He is able to identify the girl, elude FBI, tries to burn his apartment down, is able to gains access to Maggie's apartment and knock out Aram in order to kidnap Maggie. He's a killer who works for someone who has arranged dozen of murders, and knows "take care of her" means kill her. There is absolutely no reason for Charnquist not to have just killed Maggie, Aram, and Fiona. He had opportunity and he ends up killing 3 cops in order to kidnap her and kidnapping Maggie would not have solved anything.
