Name That Episode #13 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Aquiel

A tricky one! In "Aquiel", it's true that Geordi was reviewing the logs of Lieutenant Aquiel Uhnari in order to find out what really happened between her and Lieutenant Rocha. However, he's onboard the communication relay station, where Aquiel had made all of those recordings to her sister, when he's reviewing them. "Encounter At Farpoint" saw Riker being beamed up directly to the stardrive section of the Enterprise and, upon his arrival, being immediately instructed by Picard to watch video logs of the crew's first encounter with the omnipotent Q so that he could be brought up to speed on the current situation. "The Vengeance Factor" saw Riker reviewing logs again--this time, with the Enterprise intact--when he, Dr. Crusher and Data are on the bridge and viewing stilled images showing the woman named Yuta, who had been killing off members of The Gatherers one by one.

Then in "Identity Crisis", Picard, Geordi and Geordi's fiend, Commander Leitjen, are all in the Observation Lounge reviewing the video logs of the original away team's mission on Tarchannen III at the very beginning of the episode; Geordi further is replaying those logs for himself later on in the episode to get to the bottom of the mystery of his transformed former crewmates.

Answer: Contagion

This one's a bit tricky also! In "The Best Of Both Worlds, Part 2", it's true that Worf and Data transported over to the Borg cube to retrieve their assimilated captain. However, after Data disconnects Picard from the Collective, it's their shuttle, and NOT the bridge of the Enterprise, that they transport back to while shouldering their now-unconscious captain.

In "Parallels", although Worf is being tossed from timeline to timeline, he is NOT being tossed back and forth to alien locations, and nor is he carrying any injured crewmembers, In "Hide And Q", it's true that Worf is transported back onto the bridge (along with Geordi and Data) from their brief stay in the Q Continuum via the powers of the omnipotent aliens while Riker is left behind, but Worf isn't carrying any injured crewmembers with him upon his arrival. That leaves "Contagion" as the correct answer.

After Data is zapped by the energy discharge and rendered partially non-functional by the Iconian technology, Picard orders Worf to carry Data back through the shifting portal.

While the captain continues to figure out how to disable the technology on his own, his Klingon chief of security hoists his android crewmate on his back and enters the portal when the Enterprise's bridge comes into view, materializing out of thin air to the shock of Riker and the rest of the bridge crew.

Answer: Violations

At the beginning of the episode, Keiko is in Ten Forward, sitting at a table with one of the telepathic Ullian delegates. The alien is using his powers to help Keiko remember how she used to fill a broken cup with liquid for her grandmother to dip a paintbrush in whenever her elder parent was writing in calligraphy (which we have the pleasure of seeing on screen)...all before the real memory violations happen to members of the crew later on. Keiko is not recalling fond childhood memories of her grandmother writing in neither "The Wounded" nor "Disaster", and although she is temporarily transformed into a child in "Rascals", she is not enjoying memories of her grandmother in this episode either.

Answer: The Loss

A distraught Counselor Troi is in Ten Forward when the mysterious El-Aurian bartender joins her, who counsels the counselor on dealing with her empathic ability having been stripped from her by the two-dimensional aliens. During the context of the conversation, Guinan offers that she plans to take on the new role as ship's counselor with Troi--at least at that moment in the episode--no longer having a desire to perform in her familiar role. Guinan does make appearances in the other three episodes, and it's true that crewmembers are mentally having difficulty focusing at their posts in "Night Terrors" while the adolescent-transformed Picard and company can't quite function as normal Starfleet officers in "Rascals", but Guinan is never expressing a desire to take on a new role onboard the ship in any of them.

Answer: Conundrum

With the selective memories of everyone onboard wiped, the troubled Bajoran has no idea that she and Commander Riker have had a rocky relationship since her arrival onboard the Enterprise; instead, she eyes Riker as potential man material. When they are alone together in Riker's quarters later in the episode, following a breif visit by Counselor Troi, a suddenly seductive Ro Laren, wearing an evening gown, makes the right moves on her first officer that lead to the pair eventually locking lips. The Bajoran conn officer isn't kissing another crewmember--nor having any romantic moments, for that matter--in any of the other three episodes.

Answer: Descent, Part 2

Picard, Troi and Geordi had been captured by Lore and his reformed Borg Collective in Part 1, and are still being held captive when Part 2 gets under way. After Geordi is taken away by an emotionally-changed Data to a lab, Picard and Troi conspire to mount a bit of a resistance in hopes of escaping from their confinement.

At one point, Troi is able to convince one of the Borg drones to tend to Picard, who is pretending to be hurt and unconscious on the floor. When the drone walks over, Picard detaches one of the tubules off its body to render it immobile, then removes a metal device that he hands to Troi.

Unfortunately, the instant the counselor reaches the corridor, she is intercepted by Data and a group of drones, who are escorting Geordi back into the cell. Data orders Troi to drop the metal device, or else he'll break Geordi's neck. Reluctantly, she complies, then, along with Picard, helps her visually-impaired crewmate back into the cell.

In none of the other three episodes is Troi handling a device that a crewmember orders her to do away with.

Answer: Déjà Q

This episode featuring the omnipotent Q goes out with a bang--literally!--when he dons the Spanish attire and leads a very festive Mariachi band onto the bridge--guitars, drums, horns and all. Shortly after the performance, Data breaks out into sudden hysterical laughter without anybody else on the bridge having cracked a joke or done anything funny, a final parting gift of humor from the same omnipotent being who introduced the Enterprise crew to the Borg and put the Human race on trial in his first encounter with them.

The other three episodes do have bits of truth associated with them--Data does try his hand at understanding humor in "The Outrageous Okona"; "Where No One Has Gone Before" does briefly show us an orchestra band performing in one of the crewmember's hallucinations; and the main villain in the Western holodeck program in "A Fistful Of Datas" does enjoy a few fits of maniacal laughter--but both a band performing for the crew and Data's uncontrollable laughter do not occur in either of them.

Answer: Haven

The mysterious and very tell trusty alien companion to Counselor Troi's outrageous mother normally remains silent for the duration of an entire episode. In his very first appearance in "Haven", however, he is in the transporter room and about to disembark from the Enterprise near the end when he stops momentarily to thank Picard for the drinks served up at the wedding party in the Conference Room.

It was the only words that Homn would speak in the whole episode. In all of the other three episodes, Lwaxana's valet does indeed remain speechless, although I'm sure if he did speak more regularly, he would have a lot to say about the Betazoid woman he serves, courteous and otherwise.

Answer: Ship In A Bottle

Here's yet another tricky one! Following the resolution of the events that saw the holographic arch enemy to Sherlock Holmes, Professor Moriarty, having tricked Picard and the crew to thinking he's found a way to escape the confines of the holodeck, Barclay and the other senior officers are in the Observation Lounge, discussing how they've turned the tables on Moriarty and kept his program running continuously in an artificial device.

At the very end, Barclay is about to exit the room with everyone else when he says, "Computer, end program", believing momentarily that he's still on the holodeck, given the mind-boggling adventure that he, Data and Picard have just experienced. Of course, nothing happens, and the comical engineer walks out with a satisfactory smile on his face.

In neither "Genesis" nor "Realm Of Fear" is Barclay on the holodeck; he spends his time with the senior crew getting de-evoled into ugly creatures and seeing what he THINKS to be ugly creatures while traveling via the transporter, respectively.

Then in "The Nth Degree", it's Picard and the rest of the crew who are attempting to shut down the holodeck, and not Barclay himself, as he has taken over permanent residence there while in his super-enhanced state of intelligence.

Answer: Ensign Ro

It's true that Geordi had misgivings about Ensign Ro being onboard the Enterprise, but the Enterprise's chief engineer is speaking briefly with Guinan in Ten Forward, the only place he appears in this episode, when those feelings concerning Ro Laran are revealed.

In "Relics", after Scotty has been rescued from transporter suspension and beamed onto the Enterprise, he tries his utmost best to impose his engineering knowledge, albeit outdated, on Geordi and the rest of the crew. Unfortunately for Scotty, Geordi initially isn't willing to listen to his ideas and grows impatient with the persistence of Captain Kirk's former crewmate, who feels completely useless to the crew...that is, up until the suspense builds up concerning the Enterprise's proximity to the Dyson sphere.

In "Déjà Q", after the omnipotent pesky alien has temporarily lost his powers, he teams up with Geordi and Data in engineering on an idea to divert the moon fragment away from the planet. But because of Q's self-absorption with his reduced Human form, his laziness and his overall reluctance to help, Geordi becomes irritated and relies on Data to convince the humanized alien to cooperate.

Then at the beginning of "Remember Me", Geordi is annoyed when the use of the Enterprise's warp engines is being delayed by Wesley working on enhancing the warp field at a nearby engineering station.
