'Star Trek: The Next Generation' - Episodes Trivia

31. The trademark Picard phrases of 'Number One' and 'make it so' are both spoken by one person OTHER THAN Picard himself in this episode.

From Quiz Name That Episode #4

Answer: Too Short A Season

The admiral named Mark Jameson, who was responsible for triggering the civil war on the alien planet called Mordan, says both of these trademark Picard phrases while in his aged state. First, he says' Number One' when talking to Riker while working with the crew on the bridge. Then Jameson says 'make it so' to Picard over the com, before Picard repeats his own trademark phrase himself when passing the order to Data, when he wants to communicate to the governor of Mordan through a private channel. In none of the other three episodes do both of these trademark phrases get spoken by somebody besides the Enterprise's diplomatic captain.

From Quiz A Matter Of Time

Answer: Panthera IV

Panthera IV is a Federation colony that has been hit by an asteroid. No one was hurt, but the resulting dust-cloud is blocking sunlight from the rest of the planet. Sooner or later every colonist will freeze to death. The Enterprise is rushing at warp speed to assist. It will arrive soon and Geordi and Data have a solution, so there is no great urgency. So when Worf detects a strange temporal distortion, Captain Picard decides it won't hurt to stop to investigate. Little does he know...

From Quiz Episode "Night Terrors"

Answer: USS Brattain

The Brattain had been missing for 29 days. They had sent out a distress call. The ship's name was mis-spelled on the model as Brittain, but Brattain was the name used on the computer graphics seen during the episode and in the episode script itself.

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" "Encounter at Farpoint"

Answer: DeForest Kelly

Kelly has a conversation with Data and we learn that he is an Admiral and 137 years old.

From Quiz Alien Possession in Space!

Answer: Daedalus

This question is significant because the Daedalus class starship hasn't been in Starfleet in nearly two centuries. This was a main point discussed among Picard, Riker, and Data at the beginning of the episode. Data is able to determine that the signal is consistent with the type of distress call that the USS Essex, that vanished in this area over two centuries ago. All the other starship classes mentioned in the answers are in operation in the "Star Trek Universe" from "TNG" on. The USS Enterprise-D that we see throughout "Star Trek: The Next Generation," was a Galaxy class starship and was destroyed in the events of "Star Trek: Generations" (Star Trek VII). USS Voyager from "Star Trek: Voyager" was an Intrepid class starship. And the USS Enterprise-E that you see in the movie "Star Trek: First Contact," (Star Trek VIII) was a Sovereign class starship.

From Quiz "The Child" from "Star Trek: The Next Generation"

Answer: Both Dr. Katherine Pulaski and Guinan

Dr. Katherine Pulaski, played by Diana Muldaur, replaced Dr. Beverly Crusher just for the second season of this series. You may remember her from the L.A. Law TV series. And as most "Star Trek: TNG" fans know, Guinan is played by the very talented Whoopi Goldberg. She becomes a recurring character from this point on. We first met the ever so colorful, over-the-top Lwaxana Troi, Deanna's mother, in the first season episode "Haven." She was played by Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, the wife of Gene Roddenberry. She did not appear in "The Child."

From Quiz Conversational Tamarian

Answer: "Sokath, his eyes uncovered"

This was said by both Dathon and the Tamarian first officer when they realized Picard finally understood what their metaphors meant. Sokath must have been, to borrow a word from Q, a "dullard."

From Quiz "Shades of Gray"

Answer: I'm

One of the differences between Data and his brother Lore is Data's inability to use contractions.

From Quiz 'Next Generation' Episode : 'The Defector'

Answer: Henry V

The story begins on a holodeck with Data practising his acting and Captain Picard watching. Picard has taught Data about Shakespeare, now Data plays the part of Henry V. Specifically, the scene where King Henry disguised himself and walked among his troops to ascertain their mood before the battle of Agincourt. Little do both Starfleet officers know this play will soon be relevant to brewing developments...

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" (Season 2, Part 1)

Answer: 10 months

Incorporating a normal 10-month Betazoid pregnancy into the second season of "TNG" would have been difficult, most of all for Marina Sirtis (she wasn't pregnant at that time and would have needed to wear a prop)! Two regular "Star Trek" actresses, however, have portrayed pregnant characters in order to accommodate their real-life pregnancies: Nana Visitor (Kira Nerys) in the fourth and fifth seasons of "Deep Space Nine" and Roxann Dawson (B'Elanna Torres) in the seventh season of "Voyager." Chief Engineer Charles "Trip" Tucker was also memorably impregnated during the "Enterprise" episode "Unexpected."

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" (Season 1, Part 2)

Answer: The perils of modern technology

While the kidnapping of children, as featured in this episode, is certainly a form of child abuse, "When The Bough Breaks" more obviously speaks to the dangers of relying too heavily on technology. The Aldeans have used a planetary shield/cloaking device to hide their planet from outsiders for many generations. The Enterprise determines, however, that this shield has left Aldea susceptible to harmful solar radiation and rendered the native population infertile. Luckily for them, Beverly Crusher is a top-of-the-line doc!

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" (Season 1, Part 1)

Answer: 137

Humans of the 24th Century have much longer lifespans than contemporary humans, though McCoy appears fairly decrepit as he walks through the corridors of the Enterprise-D with Lt. Commander Data. This would be DeForest Kelley's final television appearance before his death in 1999.

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" - "Tapestry"

Answer: The Federation personnel were ambushed outside of a peace conference

The full story of the peace conference is not related in this episode, though it might be similar to the role Starfleet played as mediator in the "ST: TNG" episode "Loud as a Whisper". If there are any Trekkers out there who can provide some context for this, I'd be much obliged.

From Quiz Pursuing "Hollow Pursuits"

Answer: holodeck

It seems like Ten Forward, but it is actually a replica on the holodeck. The show also ends on the holodeck, this time a replica of the bridge.

From Quiz Is Riker's "Future Imperfect"?

Answer: Alpha Onias III

I hope you weren't fooled by the other choices. Ceti Alpha V is where Khan was marooned in "Space Seed" and "ST II: The Wrath of Khan." Boralus is the Bolian homeworld. I'm not sure that Gamma Hydra 10 even exists. Gamma Hydra Section 10 is supposed to be a sector where the Kobayashi Maru is trapped in the infamous Kobayashi Maru scenario.

From Quiz There's A "Disaster" Aboard Ship!

Answer: quantum filament

Two quantum filaments hit the Enterprise-D, making the ship momentarily charged "as if the ship had come in contact with a live electrical wire". This had the effect of knocking out the computer and most power. Most people were isolated, and the captain was alone with three children (his worst nightmare).

From Quiz 'Star Trek TNG' - 'Cause & Effect'

Answer: The Enterprise explodes

It explodes several times, actually. After each explosion, the ship and crew are thrown back in time and the whole cycle repeats!

From Quiz "Star Trek: TNG" - "Remember Me"

Answer: Dr. Dalen Quaice

Dr. Crusher had once interned with Dalen Quaice. The other doctors have appeared on other episodes.

From Quiz "Star Trek: T.N.G." Episode "Birthright 1 & 2"

Answer: liquid polymer

He then asks Worf how he can eat it.

From Quiz "Star Trek TNG":" Lower Decks"

Answer: Crew evaluations

From Quiz "Next Generation" Episode: "Cause and Effect"

Answer: right

The ship's right nacelle is struck in the collision, causing major structural damage to Enterprise and a drive plasma leak, which leads directly to the the warp core exploding and the destruction of the ship.

From Quiz "Star Trek - The Next Generation" - Season 7.

Answer: Arctus Baran

His first name was mentioned only once when he introduced himself to Riker.

From Quiz Quotes from 'Star Trek: TNG' - 'Deja Q'

Answer: Q

Q says this after he says "What do I have to do to convince you people?!" Then Worf comes back with "DIE!!" This is considered one of the funniest moments in 'Star Trek TNG'!

From Quiz "Menage a Troi" - Part I

Answer: Wesley

Wesley seemed very excited by the fact that Riker won the game. The Ferengi, however, accused Riker of cheating and then said that the 'noise' (also known as music) was distracting him.

From Quiz "Star Trek: The Next Generation" Year 7

Answer: Dr. Crusher

With most of the crew on the planet seaching for Data, Beverly was left in command. When the Borg ship returned and attacked, they weren't able to beam up the primary command staff along with the rest of the crew, but she was able to destroy the ship via some immaginative thinking and by trusting a junior officer.

From Quiz "Star Trek: The Next Generation" Year 6

Answer: Jack London

If you believe the story, London befriended Data, and was encouraged to go to the Klondike, which is where some of his best known stories are set, by Mark Twain. Sounds plausible to me.

From Quiz 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' Year 4

Answer: Locutus

The way the show introduced the idea of Borg assimilation was to show that once part of the collective, even someone with Picard's strength of will would fully cooperate with them. I thought it was a really effective demonstration of the effect.

From Quiz 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' Year 3

Answer: Sheliak

A Sheliak owned planet had a human colony on it. They wouldn't give the Federation time to evacuate the colony, and were just going to destroy it, but Captain Picard used an arbitration clause in the treaty to delay the takeover and save the colonists.
