Commander Charlie ’Trip’ Tucker, III, Chief Engineer
 Trip is described as a Southerner in his early 30s who enjoys using his "country" persona to disarm people. He has an offbeat, often sarcastic sense of humor (like McCoy?).
He was hand-picked by Captain Archer, who is something of a mentor to him.
Though he is a brilliant Engineer and an outstanding officer, he has very little first-hand experience with alien cultures, and will often be a "fish out of water" on the series. He is extremely curious about everything and cannot wait to find new cultures and technologies to learn about.
