Clinch

Captain Clinch was a Starfleet officer serving in the 24th century. He was the captain of the USS Armitage (Starship Trekkers). He often consulted his sock puppet, "Mr. Sock", for command decisions.

History
When the Armitage visited Farpoint Station to pick up Ensign Bunsen, the colony fell under attack by a Star-jelly who was enraged at its daughter dating Bunsen. After consulting Mr. Sock, Clinch ordered to retreat, on the basis that their mission was only to pick up Bunsen.
