Name That Episode #3 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Retrospect

Seven is in engineering working with an Entharan man to adapt his weapons technology into Voyager's systems. Becoming over-annoyed with his persistent meddling in her work, Seven takes offense and angrily attacks the Entharan, having to be quickly restrained by B'Elanna and an unnamed male crewman.

The Entharan, of course, isn't a member of the Voyager crew. In "Scorpion, Part 2", Seven, while still as a drone, is on the bridge after Voyager has successfully fought off the remaining Species 8472 bio-ships that had exited fluidic space.

In an attempt to assimilate Voyager, and thus, officially breaking the Borg alliance, Seven proceeds to the conn where Paris tries to stun her with a phaser. Seven resists, then shoves Paris down onto the floor before injecting her assimilation tubes into the conn's computer station. Of course, Janeway's backup plan of having Chakotay neurally linked with Seven, aptly called 'Scorpion', puts a stop to all of that, thanks to a power surge crafted by B'Elanna that shocks both Chakotay and Seven and severs the link between them.

In "Waking Moments", in an attempt to create a diversion to give Chakotay and B'Elanna time to sneak away from the 'dream aliens' holding the crew hostage in the cargo bay, Seven initiates a physical confrontation with Harry, which gets several other crewmembers riled up and taking part in the raucous fray. In "The Raven", after Seven has sat down to dine at one of the tables, her Borg technology is activated as a result of Voyager's proximity to the U.S.S. Raven. She then stands up and throws Neelix down to the floor. Resistance was indeed futile in this episode, but just for a little while.

Answer: Night

As Voyager is drifting along through 'the void', the crew is trying to find ways of relaxing and enjoying themselves to fill the literal void of not having seen any stars nor encountered any planets or aliens since their arrival into this particular part of space.

At the beginning of the episode, Harry and Tom Paris are on the holodeck participating in Tom's "Captain Proton" simulation when the Doctor enters, demanding that it's his turn to use the holodeck. Even after Harry adjusts the Doctor's spectral frequency to match the monochrome environment of the "Captain Proton" simulation, the Doctor still refuses to participate, and the ensuing tussle over a control panel nearly overloads the holo-grid. Later, Harry is playing his clarinet from the captain's chair on the bridge, and continues playing when Tuvok arrives, but is interrupted again when sensors detect a couple of ships masked in the darkness of the void, piloted by the nocturnal aliens.

In "The Omega Directive", Harry and Tuvok are playing kal-toh in the mess hall when an impatient Seven wanting to work takes a piece Harry is planning for his next move and completes the puzzle for him; Harry and Seven then leave after that.

In "Meld", the gambling operation run by Paris at Sandrine's on the holodeck, while Harry is in attendance and eagerly awaiting the results from the computer, is interrupted by a disappointed Chakotay. The results are never known, and the replicator rations of the entire crew present are taken away. In "The Thaw", Harry is playing his clarinet in his quarters while Tom is present when an unseen Ensign Baytart pounds on the wall, presumably in reaction to the music making too much noise. Harry's later encounters with the 'fear clown', the midget of a fairy princess, the brown monster with the big teeth and all of those masked circus dancers wanting to guillotine his head off, however, was anything but recreational!

Answer: Random Thoughts

In an attempt to pinpoint which member of Voyager's crew on the Mari homeworld was carrying the violent thoughts that led to a man getting beaten in the marketplace, Janeway, Neelix and B'Elanna are all subjected to interrogation by Mari's telepathic chief inspector. During Neelix's interrogation, he has a brief fantasy of Talli, the young Mari girl in the marketplace who eventually ends up getting stabbed to death by the older woman, Mrs. Timbit, playing with his whiskers, even though he neglects to mention that when the chief inspector is questioning him.

In "Prophecy", Neelix doesn't have any fantasies about aliens, but instead is LIVING a fantasy when he becomes attracted to the Klingon woman that Harry is trying to hide from...and eventually ends up having a sizzling hot night of Klingon/Talaxian passion, right inside the cozy comforts of Tuvok's quarters. And on that note, I wonder what a Klingon-Talaxian baby would've look like? Unfortunately, we'd never found out.

In "The Q And The Grey", Neelix doesn't have any alien fantasies either, but Q does yank on Neelix's whiskers roughly at one point while he is inside Neelix's Taxau Resort program on the holodeck.

In "Bliss", pretty much everybody on board Voyager (except for Seven and Naomi Wildeman) had hallucinogenic fantasies as a result of being influenced by the 'wormhole alien', and Neelix's fantasy was of getting acquainted with Starfleet admirals, presumably after Voyager made it back to the Alpha Quadrant where he would've most likely desired to enroll in Starfleet Academy.

Answer: Alter Ego

When Tuvok, B'Elanna and Paris head to the holodeck to see what Marayna, the holographic character obsessed with Tuvok, has done to compromise Voyager's situation, B'Elanna is trying to access a control panel when one of the holographic characters, a lady whose image seems to have been inspired by Polynesian/Hawaiian culture, begins choking B'Elanna with a lei around her neck.

She can't fight back, so she tries reaching for the control panel to no avail. Eventually, Paris shoots the control panel with his phaser, which disables all of the holodeck characters and allows the away team to escape safely.

In "Day Of Honor", B'Elanna does get zapped by Klingon pain sticks by a couple of Klingons in the program she and Paris created together, but B'Elanna angrily fights them back barehanded when she's decided she's had enough pain and suffering. "Extreme Risk" shows our favorite half-Klingon chief engineer intentionally inflicting pain upon herself in a variety of holodeck scenarios, and in the scenario with the Cardassian men, she's physically able to handle her attackers without any problems at all. "The Bride Of Chaotica!" didn't feature the chief engineer on the holodeck at all (half the main cast does get to play, however) although she does help the Doctor equip himself with special parameters before he enters to play his role as Earth's president.

Answer: The Void

Among the aliens who were part of the 'alliance' Janeway forged in a joint effort to escape the starless region were a group of mute humanoids whom the Doctor befriended. They were excellent listeners, and apparently had a good ear for music, as in one scene, when Janeway enters sickbay, the aliens and the Doctor are playing a computerized song created by pressing various buttons on their respective PADDs. Fascinated by the entertaining performance, Janeway applauds once the song has ended. In "Author, Author", nobody is applauding the Doctor's literary work, as much of it offends and disrespects his fellow crewmates.

In "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy" (one of the more hilarious episodes as well as one of my personal favorite episodes of the series), the Doctor does receive a round of applause after his imaginary singing performance in the mess hall (Tuvok crying and laughing--so funny!) as well as cheers in his subsequent imaginary celebration in the cargo bay (Seven on one arm and B'Elanna on the other arm--the Doctor really was quite the ladies man!) and his REAL celebration in the mess hall at the end of the episode where Seven kisses him (a platonic gesture on her part, she says, but I wonder if the other members of the crew thought otherwise?).

In "Latent Image", there was no applause from anyone, as his deteriorating program had malfunctioned to the point where he had to be shut down and reconfigured. But I would personally give the Doctor a round of applause myself for giving such a wonderful performance in "Latent Image" as well as in the other episodes, as he always did.

Answer: Basics, Part 2

One fact to keep in mind before answering this question is that B'Elanna is only half-Klingon, which was reinforced in the first season episode "Faces", and that Naomi Wildeman, daughter of Ensign Wildeman, is only half-Ktarian, as was revealed in the second season episode "Deadlock".

Therefore, any episode in which both B'Elanna and Naomi appeared counts as an episode where two half-alien lifeforms appeared. In "Basics, Part 2", both B'Elanna and Naomi (as a newborn infant) both appeared, but there is also the third half-alien, the unnamed Cardassian-Kazon that was the offspring of Maje Culluh and a scheming Seska.

In both "Dragon's Teeth" and "Once Upon A Time", B'Elanna and Naomi are the only two half-aliens featured, even though in both episodes, B'Elanna only appears in a few scenes while in the latter, Naomi appeared prominently, as she is being looked after by Neelix while Ensign Wildeman is trapped on the Delta Flyer with Tuvok and Paris. Things get a little tricky with "Before And After", where B'Elanna does appear in many scenes, but the other half-alien lifeform would be the newborn infant that Kes gives birth to during one of her time jumps where she is on a shuttlecraft with Paris, heading back to Voyager just in time to be caught up in the battle with the Krenim.

As Paris is human and the father of Kes's child, it has to be assumed that Kes was giving birth to a half-human, half-Ocampan baby. Thinking further about children on Voyager and such, the baby that B'Elanna gives birth to in the series finale, "Endgame", whom we assume is the grown-up female Ensign Paris shown near the beginning in the future timeline, was another partial-alien of which Paris was also the father. One could even go further than that and say that all of the ex-Borg children Voyager picked up in "Collective", plus Seven herself, are also part-aliens, given that their bodies have retained some of their former Borg technology. Some could say that even the Doctor was part-alien at times, given all of the instances where his holomatrix was corrupted and he underwent personality changes, but that would be crossing over into a whole entirely different realm of discussion altogether.

Answer: In The Flesh

While Chakotay is inside Species 8472's recreation of Starfleet Academy, one of the many training facilities being used by the fluidic space aliens for their planned invasion of Earth, Paris and Harry are holding position in orbit on board the Delta Flyer. Harry is concerned that Chakotay hasn't returned after quite a while and is visibly pacing back and forth in the rear of the shuttle, which Paris takes notice of and makes a comment about.

In "Non Sequitir", there's no time for waiting games when he and the alternate timeline Paris are in the shuttle, hoping that all of the re-created conditions of the original shuttle accident will lead Harry safely back to his present timeline on Voyager. "Non Sequitur", of course, would be the show's first episode where someone in the cast went back in time to Earth.

In "Endgame", Captain Harry Kim, commanding the futuristic U.S.S. Rhode Island, stops in on Admiral Janeway in her futuristic shuttlecraft with a device that presumably infects her with the virus that infects the rest of the Borg collective when the Borg Queen assimilates her.

He's never pacing back and forth at any moment in this shuttle, nor anytime else in Voyager's series finale. In "Timeless", Harry isn't pacing around or waiting for anybody at any time during this episode either, whether he's on the Delta Flyer with Chakotay in the present timeline or the future timeline. As in "Non Sequitur", there really wasn't any time for Harry to be waiting on anybody or anything anyways; perhaps this gives further meaning to the episode title "Timeless".

Answer: Latent Image

When Seven visited Janeway in the wee hours of the morning to discuss the issue of the Doctor's holographic rights, Janeway was in fact still in her gray turtleneck and uniform slacks while reading a book, even though she'd taken off her jacket. So technically, she wasn't in different attire yet.

In "Learning Curve", Janeway is in her costume as English Governess Lucy Davenport at the very beginning when she is sitting down with the two children. The costume, of course, is her familiar brown and white plaid three-piece, the same thing she wore when running her holonovel program in both "Cathexis" and "Persistence Of Vision".

In "Remember", Janeway is wearing a simple white two-piece outfit while in attendance at the Enaran gathering in the mess hall.

Other crewmembers, including Tuvok, Chakotay, Paris and Kim, are dressed formally as well. Do YOU remember? In "Hope And Fear", Janeway and Seven play three rounds of velocity (one at the beginning of the episode, one at the very end, and a third that starts just as the episode's ending credits appear on the screen), and both are wearing athletic clothes for the occasion: Janeway, a two-piece outfit with a red top and Seven a black jumpsuit with a stripe going along the sides. I 'hope' you got this one right!

Answer: Prototype

A battle in the robotic war between the Pralor and Cravic automated units reached a climax towards the end of the episode when the crew is devising a plan to rescue B'Elanna from the Pralor ship. Having been able to successfully pilot a shuttlecraft through the defense barrier of the Pralor ship as a result of the Cravic's weapons fire upon the Pralor ship, Paris manages to beam B'Elanna safely off of the Pralor ship. Prior to this battle, Voyager had sustained heavy damage as a result of a direct tactical confrontation with the Pralor ship to the point where only minimal warp and propulsion was possible. Only B'Elanna's agreement to help her automated Pralor captor build additional prototypes prevented Voyager from being destroyed.

At the end of "Basics, Part 1", Paris did take a shuttle in an effort to seek help from a Talaxian convoy...and he's still piloting that shuttle all throughout "Basics, Part 2", However, Paris doesn't transport anything to his shuttle; he does transport Talaxians from the convoy directly onto Voyager after the backup phaser couplings have overloaded, rendering Seska and much of the Kazon incapacitated.

In "Scorpion, Part 1", none of the crew is piloting a shuttlecraft, and the only weapons fired are those by the Species 8472 bio-ships. In "Caretaker", the only time Paris appears on a shuttle is when he is with Voyager's former conn officer, Lieutenant Stadi, towards the beginning of the series pilot. After that, there hadn't been any weapons fire of any kind encountered until Voyager was yanked into the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker and the Kazon became hostile. It would be Chakotay piloting a shuttlecraft (his Maquis ship) who has to dodge the weapons fire between the Kazon ship and Voyager, and not Paris.

Answer: Renaissance Man

The 'spy aliens', whom were first featured in "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy", then a second time in "The Void", encounter Voyager yet again in this episode, this time using the Doctor to incapacitate the crew in order to retrieve components from Voyager.

The Doctor successfully renders Chakotay unconscious with a hypospray while disguised as Janeway, but he's unable to do the same to Tuvok while the Vulcan's back is briefly turned to the EMH in sickbay. Tuvok whirls around and knocks the hypospray out of the Doctor's hand, and then when the EMH refuses to cooperate, Tuvok fires his phaser at the ceiling that momentarily destabilizes the Doctor's holomatrix, threatening to disable the entire program if the Doctor doesn't obey his orders.

In "Cathexis", Tuvok does everything from inflicting the 'Vulcan neck pinch' (as evidenced by an unconscious Kes in the turbolift) to firing a wide beam phaser shot at the bridge crew, but he never physically knocks a piece of equipment out of anybody's hand in this episode, whether it's while he's being possessed by the Komar or later after Chakotay awakens from his brain-dead state.

In "Worst Case Scenario", it's a reversal of fortune, as it's the Doctor who is knocking Tuvok around when the Vulcan and Paris are inside of the booby-trapped "Insurrection Alpha" program that Tuvok had authored. The Doctor knocks Tuvok down onto a biobed in sickbay at one point. Additionally, Tuvok never fires a phaser in this episode, even though he and Paris did seize phasers from the holographic Maquis officers in the cargo bay shortly before the holographic Seska's phaser rifle backfires, ending the threat and the program. In "Barge Of The Dead", Tuvok doesn't knock any objects out of anybody's hand, but he does take a mighty swing at B'Elanna's face with a bat'leth while the pair is together in his quarters. I suspect that B'Elanna was already in 'Klingon Hell' and on board the Barge of the Dead at that point in the episode with all of the crew behaving so strange, and Tuvok was acting the strangest out of all of them.
