Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who hated the movie that they were watching in Starbug?

Answer: Rimmer

Kryten enjoyed the film and Lister was crying because it was a wonderful film. Cat was bored after the cartoon before the film began but Rimmer hated the film. He didn't think that someone would really give up their lives for someone that they love.

2. What did Cat suggest they drop when the unknown ship appeared?

Answer: Defensive shields

The Cat: "Why don't we drop the defensive shields?"
Kryten: "A superlative suggestion, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, we don't have any defensive shields. And two, we don't have any defensive shields. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice."
The Cat: "Good point, well made."

3. Cat said to leave before the unknown ship gave Rimmer back.

Answer: True

The holoship The Enlightenment transported Rimmer out of Starbug to their ship. Cat was thrilled.
Kryten: "They've taken Mr. Rimmer. Sir, they've taken Mr. Rimmer."
The Cat: "Quick, let's get out of here before they bring him back."

4. Kryten: "You must remember that he is operating on a completely different level to us now. To him, we are the intellectual equivalent of domestic ______ teachers." Fill in the blank.

Answer: Unknown

Captain Platini: "Captain Hercule Platini IQ 212." Pushkin: "Commander Natalina Pushkin IQ 201." Navarro: "Commander Randy Navarro 194." Rimmer: "Second Technician Arnold Rimmer IQ unknown."
Commander Nirvanah Crane's IQ was also unknown but I'm sure it was quite high.

6. Who was Rimmer's opponent on The Enlightenment?

Answer: Commander Nirvanah Crane

They'd just had sex much to Rimmer's delight and Nirvanah's slight shock. Rimmer didn't say anything beyond "Geronimo". After he went back to Starbug, Nirvanah was informed she would be Rimmer's opponent.

7. Rimmer refused to do a mind patch.

Answer: False

He suggested it, saying he would be at home on The Enlightenment.
Kryten: "You will be joining a society where you must have sex with beautiful, brilliant women twice daily on demand. Now am I the only one here who finds that just a little bit tacky?"

Lister and Cat stopped eating in mid-feeding.

8. Commander Nirvanah Crane: "You make love like a ______ meal: small portions, but oh, so many courses." Fill in the blank.

Answer: Japanese

Rimmer then dressed and transmitted to Starbug. Seconds later Nirvanah learned she was Rimmer's opponent although he didn't know it.

9. How many minds were patched into Rimmer?

Answer: Two

Two: a science officer, 169 IQ exceptional scientific background, and a flight coordinator superlative mathematician with 172 IQ. He had read the entire library of books in Starbug and during the exam he lost both patched minds all at once.

10. Who made Rimmer come back to Red Dwarf?

Answer: Rimmer

Rimmer: "Oh and sir you're wrong. We won't be apart. We just won't be together." Rimmer couldn't believe what he said and quickly turned up his nose in disgust remembering the movie from earlier.
