Question 2 of 10
2. The Doctor receives a message from Barclay informing him that Dr. Lewis Zimmerman is suffering from acute subcellular degradation.

Which of the following does she not mention? Hint


Question 4 of 10

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Early in the episode, Seven detects a transmission from Starfleet. Starfleet is using a cyclic pulsar to amplify signals from the MIDAS array, allowing them to send messages every 32 days. About how long does Janeway say they have to respond after they receive a transmission?

Answer: 17 hours

Janeway explains that they will receive a "short burst of information" once a month, and they have about 17 hours to respond. In the first message received, Chakotay mentions that they obtained tactical updates, letters from home, and news about the Alpha Quadrant.
2. The Doctor receives a message from Barclay informing him that Dr. Lewis Zimmerman is suffering from acute subcellular degradation. The Doctor believes that he can help Dr. Zimmerman and requests that Janeway send his program to Jupiter Station in the Alpha Quadrant so he can administer the treatment. Janeway mentions that she had once met Dr. Zimmerman at a conference. According to her, Dr. Zimmerman kept calling her "Captain ______".

Answer: Jane

At the conference, Janeway says that Dr. Zimmerman "managed to offend just about everyone there, but he was certainly brilliant." She calls him an "unusual man," and says that he kept calling her "Captain Jane."

Janeway is wary to send the Doctor to the Alpha Quadrant. Sending him means that they would be without a doctor (though, the Doctor claims that Paris can handle the job) and they wont be able to send any other messages that month. Eventually the Doctor convinces Janeway to allow him to go.
3. Seven informs the Doctor that his program is too large for the data stream and that they must store 12 megaquads of "nonessential subroutines" in a memory buffer until he returns. At first, the Doctor objects, claiming that the subroutines are essential to him and part of who he is. Seven asks if he is planning on partaking in certain activities during his visit. Which of the following does she not mention?

Answer: writing poetry

Seven asks if he is planning on performing opera, reciting poetry (nor writing it!), or participating in hoverball, holo-photography, and sexual activities during his visit.

The Doctor finally agrees that she can remove his singing algorithms, athletic abilities, grand master chess program, and painting skills. He asks Seven to try to leave a few of his enhancements intact, saying, "I don't want to look like every other EMH on the block."
4. When the Doctor first meets Dr. Zimmerman, Dr. Zimmerman is furious at the idea of having a Mark I EMH examine him. However, he initially allows the Doctor to begin his examination. The Doctor starts by asking a series of questions. When Dr. Zimmerman complains that he is being asked questions that a first-year medical student would ask, the Doctor says, "I'm just being thorough." A holographic iguana repeats, "Just being thorough." The Doctor deactivates the iguana and says, "I'm a doctor, not a ___________."

Answer: zookeeper

The Doctor resumes his questions after deactivating the iguana. Dr. Zimmerman angrily tells the Doctor that he has had enough questions. He tells him to finish his scans and get out of there.
5. It is not easy for the Doctor to work with Dr. Zimmerman. On one occasion he furiously storms out of Dr. Zimmerman's work room. He tells Barclay that he had run a mitochondrial scan and found something odd with the results. After spending a full hour analyzing them, the Doctor had discovered that Dr. Zimmerman was a Vulcan what?

Answer: marsupial

Obviously, Dr. Zimmerman wasn't really a Vulcan marsupial. He had reconfigured the Doctor's tricorder. Barclay chuckles at this, and Dr. Zimmerman's assistant, Haley, tells the Doctor that he is making progress. She says that Dr. Zimmerman "only teases people he likes." The Doctor responds by saying, "Then he must *love* me."
6. Dr. Zimmerman had created several holographic companions for himself on Jupiter Station (a woman, an iguana, and a fly). What are the correct names for these holographic figures (in the order: woman, iguana, fly)?

Answer: Haley, Leonard, Roy

The holographic human woman is Haley. She was the closest thing to a friend that Dr. Zimmerman had. He appreciated Haley as a loyal assistant, and made a provision in his will that she be kept online as long as his research facilities exist.

The holographic iguana is Leonard. He would repeat certain things (like "Just being thorough" and "jerks") in a low voice. Dr. Zimmerman joked that Haley should serve his salad to Leonard.

The holographic fly is Roy. Roy was designed to test micro-surveillance spy techniques. While visiting, the Doctor got so annoyed with Roy that he smashed him with a book.
7. Barclay contacts Troi and asks her to provide some insight on the situation between the Doctor and Dr. Zimmerman. Troi says that Dr. Zimmerman is a complex individual and she would have to speak to him in person. When Barclay suggests setting up a counseling session, how far away does Troi say the Enterprise is from Jupiter Station?

Answer: nearly 7 light-years

She claims that the Enterprise is in the middle of a mission nearly seven light-years away. Barclay asks if it is an important mission. Troi replies, "They're all important, Reg." She refers Barclay to a colleague of hers (Counselor Jenzo from Earth), but he says that he needs the best. Considering it an interesting challenge, Troi says that if she can clear it with Captain Picard, she would be at Jupiter Station by early the next week.
8. Troi's attempts to work with the Doctor and Dr. Zimmerman do not go well. She tells Barclay that things are worse now than when she arrived (Dr. Zimmerman won't come out of his lab and the Doctor is hiding in a holodeck). Dr. Zimmerman's assistant brings Troi some chocolate ice cream. Troi realizes that she is a hologram, and she asks the assistant when she was first brought online. When does the assistant say she was first activated?

Answer: 9 years ago

Troi realizes that Haley is "more antiquated" than the EMH Mark I. She asks Haley why Dr. Zimmerman made the first EMH in his own image and learns that, after the Mark I was rejected, Dr. Zimmerman must hate seeing the Doctor because it reminds him of his failures.
9. Because Dr. Zimmerman does not think he can recover from his disease, he begins to finish his last will and testament. Which of the following is a correct subsection and title pairing from his will?

Answer: Subsection 9: "Holographic Art"

Subsection 8 is entitled "The Trojan Horse Project" and is about his holographic infiltration technology. He bequeaths his latest research to Barclay (the only engineer he trusts to complete the work).

Subsection 9 is called "Holographic Art" and he leaves his entire collection (including the 21st century masterpiece "Woman in 4 Dimensions") to the person who has appreciated it the most -- also Barclay.

Subsection 10 he calls "Haley" and discusses his wish that Haley be left online as long as the research facility exists. Dr. Zimmerman says that she has been as real to him as anyone he has ever known.
10. Dr. Zimmerman eventually fixes an algorithm that was designed to disrupt the Doctor's matrix (introduced by Barclay in an attempt to get the two doctors to work together). As Dr. Zimmerman works with the Doctor, he opens up to him. How many Mark I EMHs are "out there" scrubbing plasma conduits according to Dr. Zimmerman?

Answer: 675

Dr. Zimmerman says, "Do you know how humiliating it is to have 675 Mark Is out there scrubbing plasma conduits all with my face?" He says that the first EMHs were bounced out of the medical corps and were referred to as "Emergency Medical Hotheads" and "Extremely Marginal House calls." While he had tried to have them decommissioned, Starfleet reassigned them all to work waste-transfer barges.

As Dr. Zimmerman works on the Doctor, he sees that he has exceeded his original programming. Eventually he concedes to allow the Doctor to try to cure him. The Doctor is successful at treating Dr. Zimmerman's condition.
