Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Picard enters the holodeck to find that a program, consisting of solely the re-creation of the bridge of a Federation starship no longer in service, is actively running.

Answer: Relics

Sorely missing his former ship and crewmates, plus trying to make himself be useful on board a 24th-century starship, Scotty has the bridge of the original Enterprise NCC-1701 (without the bloody 'A', 'B', 'C' or 'D', as he says while in his annoyed, drunken state) re-created on the holodeck. Definitely a nostalgic moment for fans and viewers of "The Original Series"! Shortly after he is getting his bearings and admiring the ancient ship, Picard enters the holodeck, admitting to just be checking up on the aged engineer.

He further impresses Scotty with the knowledge that the old Enterprise, which had become a relic in the Starfleet museum, was of the Constitution classification.
2. Worf, out of his Starfleet uniform and dressed entirely in black, assists in the direct physical assault of a group of aliens as they are walking out of a building and into a forest, one of those aliens being intentionally left unharmed and carried to a secluded place inside that forest with Riker.

Answer: The Outcast

Determined to continue his relationship with Soren, despite the J'naii forbidding the notion of gender, Riker teams up with a very supportive Worf in an attempt to make it happen. They are both dressed in dark civilian clothing (Worf entirely in black) while waiting out in the forest down on the planet, eventually seeing Soren being escorted out of the building by two guards. That's when they move into action; they assault the two guards, then Riker takes Soren by the hand and leads them both back into the forest, which is where they had shared a romantic moment earlier in the episode.

Unfortunately, Soren has already been 'cleansed of the illness' by the J'naii psychotherapy procedures and, thus, no longer has a desire to continue having a relationship with the Enterprise's first officer.
3. An alien in Ten Forward orders a large quantity of chocolate sundaes all for himself, but when the two bartenders bring him what he ordered just moments later, he doesn't eat a single one of them.

Answer: Déjà Q

Upon experiencing his first Human sensation of hunger, which is the result of him having lost his powers of omnipotence, the scheming and meddling Q is accompanied by Data to Ten Forward. At the resident android's suggestion that Counselor Troi often ate chocolate when she wasn't in a good mood, Q mindlessly asks the female bartender for a whopping TEN chocolate sundaes! But after a not-so-friendly exchange of words with his El-Aurian nemesis, Guinan, Q decides he isn't hungry anymore when the female bartender and the male bartender assisting her each return with a tray of five sundaes. So I wonder if, following the production of this episode, if those sundaes ever got eaten at all? Otherwise, that would've surely been a lot of wasted ice cream and chocolate fudge...unless it was all artificial to begin with ;-)
4. Riker, in privacy to Picard, expresses his discomfort in dealing with the personal requests by a fellow Starfleet commander recently assigned to the Enterprise; later, Riker puts the commander in charge of special devices designed to shield against the raging fires down on a planet.

Answer: Lessons

Commander Darren, recently assigned to the Enterprise to be in charge of stellar cartography, approaches Riker a couple of times with personal requests. She first asks to have more energy allocated to her department, then later to have a crewmember transferred from quantum mechanics to work with her team. Riker expresses his discomfort with Darren's requests to Picard, believing the commander to be using her close relationship to the ship's captain as a way of having her requests fulfilled. The matter is resolved, however, and when the Starfleet officers on the planet are in danger from the brewing firestorm, Riker puts Darren in charge of the thermal deflectors, which shield the distressed officers and the away teams from the deadly blazes.
5. A group of humanoid aliens, where one member always finishes the sentence of the other, come aboard the Enterprise via starbase in this episode.

Answer: 11001001

Perhaps the giveaway with this question is the words 'one' and 'the other', which implies that these aliens speak in pairs. This was a natural trait of the Bynars; every time one member spoke, another finished the sentence, and vice versa. They come aboard the Enterprise via starbase for routine maintenance upgrades, but they take advantage of the situation by essentially hacking the main computer and forcing the flagship of the Federation to venture all the way back to their homeworld.
6. The Enterprise attempts to communicate with a space-faring alien using intermittent high-pitched pulses, but when those pulses are switched to sound continuously, the alien is killed instead.

Answer: Silicon Avatar

Destroying the 'Crystalline Entity' had been the wish of Dr. Kila Marr, an expert on the the menacing alien who comes aboard the Enterprise following the devastation on the planet at the beginning of the episode. Picard, on the other hand, offered a more peaceful solution: to communicate with and try to understand it instead.

It's soon determined that emitting high-frequency pulses from the ship would enable the crew to establish connections with the lifeform that killed the colonists on Omicron Theta.

The idea works while the pulses are sounding intermittently, but then works a little too well when the still-vengeful Dr. Marr can't help herself any longer and decides to switch the pulses to sound continuously, essentially overloading the giant snowflake's receptors and causing it to shatter into smithereens.
7. In the same episode, Dr. Crusher shares a romantic kiss with an alien diplomat in his quarters before later getting kissed on the palm of her hand by a woman in sickbay.

Answer: The Host

Perhaps one of the more intriguing, touching and ground-breaking episodes in the series saw the introduction of the Trills, whose bodies are used as hosts for a secondary lifeform called a symbiont. Odan, Dr. Crusher's new love interest at the beginning of the episode, keeps his true identity a secret, even while the pair are sharing moments of lustful, romantic passion in his quarters.

But to Beverly's dismay, the host eventually dies from injuries while in sickbay. The Odan symbiont, however, survives when it's placed into Riker's body until it ultimately ends up in the body of a beautiful woman. Even inside this new host, Odan's spirit and love for Dr. Crusher continues to be alive and well.

As a final show of affection, Odan takes the hand of the Enterprise's chief medical officer and kisses the palm before walking out of sickbay.
8. Data is escorting a young boy in the Turbolift when his speech is abruptly severed by an audible mechanical glitch, saying no further words to the boy nor responding to anyone on the bridge after exiting the Turbolift.

Answer: Brothers

Riker orders Data to escort the brother who played the dangerous practical joke on his younger brother to the ship's quarantine lab. While en route there via the Turbolift, Data is reassuring the older brother that the nearby Federation Starbase may be able to affect a cure for the quarantined brother's condition when an audible mechanical glitch forces Data to stop talking in mid-sentence.

The ship's resident android says absolutely nothing as he taps a few buttons on the Turbolift controls...and is still wordless when he eventually exits onto the bridge and even when he assumes his post at his familiar ops station.

It's revealed later that Data's creator, the renowned Dr. Noonian Soong, had activated an internal homing beacon to summon the Enterprise's resident android down to the planet.
9. Picard is in the shuttlebay with another Federation captain, but when that other captain insists on boarding one of the shuttles to leave the Enterprise, Picard retrieves a phaser and stuns the captain before departure can occur.

Answer: Time Squared

The 'other captain' refers to the Captain Picard from six hours in the future who had been recovered from the shuttle that was adrift in space at the beginning of the episode. But near the episode's end, the Picard in the present timeline has figured out that his departure from the ship is what led to the destruction of the Enterprise.

After retrieving a phaser, he warns the future Picard that he mustn't leave and that the time cycle has to be broken. Future Picard tries to board the shuttle anyways, which then prompts present-timeline Picard to stun his future self with a direct phaser blast.

As a result, a repeat of the anomalous events is aborted.
10. The Enterprise encounters a spatial anomaly where the use of its own shields to protect against gravity disturbances only enhances the strength of those disturbances, further endangering the ship.

Answer: Hero Worship

There were various anomalies and spatial distortions encountered throughout the series that had some rather bizarre effects upon the Enterprise, and the black cluster cloud discovered in this episode was among the most bizarre of them all. Following the mysterious destruction of the science vessel, the Enterprise crew eventually determines that the gravity forces rocking the ship are being enhanced by the energy of the Enterprise's shields themselves. And that alarming discovery leads to the conclusion that the maximum usage of shields is what led to the science vessel succumbing to its partially-destroyed state.
