Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What happens in this episode that's unusual?

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!

2. What is the region of space that the Enterprise is exploring?

Answer: The Typhon Expanse

Mentioned at the beginning of each loop in Picard's log entry.

3. During the poker game, which crew member gets dealt two queens, calls Riker's bluff, experiences most of the deja vu, and finally gets called away?

Answer: Beverly

She receives a call from sickbay, which she eventually predicts ahead of time.

4. Where does Ensign Fletcher work?

Answer: Engineering

Ensign Fletcher pulls Geordi to safety when he suddenly gets dizzy and nearly falls off a catwalk in Engineering (a story that is told four times during the episode!)

5. What is Troi's comment on the bridge?

Answer: "We have to get out of here, now!"

Deanna's always ready to point out the obvious.

6. About how many voices does Beverly hear in her quarters at night?

Answer: One thousand

They are the voices of the Enterprise crew from previous loops. There are about 1000 people on board, as Data mentions.

7. Who suggests using the tractor beam to push the Bozeman off of its collision course with the Enterprise?

Answer: Data

He finally realizes that the tractor beam won't work.

8. Which of these characters has a part in the episode?

Answer: Ensign Ro

She sits at the helm station and has a few lines.

9. Who receives the message sent by the crew into the next loop?

Answer: Data

His positronic net processes a pulse in the Dechyon field deliberately set up in the last loop. It subconsciously causes him to do a number of things, like stack the deck in the poker game.

10. What is Picard doing in his ready room that gives him deja vu?

Answer: Reading

He found passages from his book familiar, but assumed he had read the book years ago.

11. After complaining about headaches and dizziness, who receives an optical diagnostic in sickbay?

Answer: Geordi

Echoes from previous loops were messing with his VISOR.

12. What are the results of the Level 2 diagnostic on the warp subsystems?

Answer: All 3's

Appearances of the number 3 were a result of the message sent by Data into the next loop

13. Riker wondered aloud whether Data was stacking the deck

Answer: True

Data assured him that the cards were sufficiently randomized!

14. For how long was the Enterprise trapped in the temporal causality loop?

Answer: 20 days

17.4 days, to be precise. The Bozeman wasn't quite so lucky.

15. The actor who played Morgan Bateson is better known for his role in which television series?

Answer: Frasier

That would be Kelsey Grammer. Hope you had fun!
