Best Trip episodes?

Like the title says above. What are the best episodes about Trip Tucker?

I think that "Shuttlepod One", "Dawn", "The Forgotten", "Demons" & "Terra Prime" are among his best.

I have a soft spot for Precious Cargo :adore:
It may be a several times recycled story, but it's fun, we get to see a LOT of Trip, and he copes with Kaitaama rather valiantly, all things considered.

"Unexpected" has to be my favourite Trip episode. I loved the gender reversal of pregnancy and he was such a great male character to be pregnant.
 
To add some more to this exalted list, I would recommend E² and First Flight despite neither particularly focusing on Trip. I like the mix of wistfulness and good humor we get from Trip, especially in his interactions with Lorian, in E². It’s a nice little overview of the complexities of his character. I also love seeing the beginnings of Archer and Trip’s friendship in First Flight. I think it shows a nuanced but rather positive spin on the scrappier aspects of their barreling into outer space.
