Name That Episode #38 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Message In A Bottle

Upon establishing communications via the relay network the first time in this episode, B'Elanna and Seven are greeted by an angry member of the Hirogen via the Astrometrics viewscreen. The Hirogen claim ownership of the technology that allows the Doctor to transport over to the Federation ship being controlled by the Romulans.

The second time communications are established, the same angry Hirogen reappears, attempting to sever Voyager's link with the relay network. When Janeway tries to explain her crew's situation, an electrical discharge suddenly appears, giving the uncooperative Hirogen a violent shock and inciting puzzled reactions from Janeway and B'Elanna. Seven then explains that she intentionally sent a feedback surge through the relay network since the Hirogen refused to respond with diplomacy.

Answer: Dark Frontier

Midway through this exciting two-hour Borg adventure, Neelix delivers PADDs to Seven while she's in the cargo bay, the PADDs containing records of the logs her parents kept while onboard the U.S.S. Raven. Regretfully, Neelix offers up his wish to have a treasure trove of family memories like the one he gives to Seven.

The only memory he has of his family, he says, is a holo-image of his sister, Alixia, after everyone else died in the Metreon Cascade disaster on Rinax.

Answer: Faces

After the Klingon B'Elanna carries the Human B'Elanna out of the Vidiian surgical room, we next see the two ladies deep inside a cave. While the Human B'Elanna is asleep, the Klingon B'Elanna is carefully roasting something tasty in the campfire on a stick...or IS it tasty? We soon find out that the roasted delicacy is actually a rodent killed by Klingon B'Elanna.

After explaining that her Human self needs nourishment and that replicating something more pleasing to the taste buds isn't possible, Human B'Elanna accepts the dead carcass, timidly chewing on a piece of it while Klingon B'Elanna gorges on hers without any hesitation at all.

Answer: The Q And The Grey

Chakotay realizes that, following the third supernova that rocks the ship, the Female Q has lost her powers when sees a cut on her forehead and that she is unable to whisk the crew away with a snap of her finger as she threatened to do. In response, Chakotay threatens to toss her into the brig if she doesn't start cooperating and tell him how to get his captain back. We later find out that her powers were taken due to the civil war within the Q Continuum, but those powers are restored once resolution is reached by the end of the episode, highlighted by Female Q and our favorite Q, played by John De Lancie, touching fingers in Janeway's ready room.

Answer: Equinox, Part 2

This one's kind of tricky and might take some extra thought, but it does help to think about why a Voyager crewmember would be confined behind a forcefield or artificial barrier in the first place. In "Relativity", the future-timeline Seven is trapped behind a forcefield in the corridor on Voyager once she's been detected by security during the Kazon attack.

After reasoning with Janeway and Tuvok, the forcefield is released, and they all then proceed to try to hunt down Captain Braxton before the temporal weapon is placed.

In "The Bride Of Chaotica!", Janeway, who is in the role of Queen Arachnia, is trapped behind a circular dome of a forcefield on the holodeck when the evil Dr. Chaotica realizes that the 'Queen Of The Spider People' is up to no good and is actually wanting to help Captain Proton save the day.

Then in "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy", it's the Doctor's turn to be put behind a forcefield. Following his 'daydream' in engineering, we next see him in sickbay standing near a bio-bed. We realize a forcefield has been placed around him when he walks too far and says, "Pardon me", with the forcefield particles and collision sound effects sputtering around him momentarily.

At this point, the crew is trying to figure out why he seems to be having daydreams constantly, which turns out to be just another 'glitch' in his programming. So that leaves "Equinox, Part 2" to be considered. In this sixth-season premiere, however, nobody is trapped behind a forcefield at all. We do see the Equinox's Noah Lessing bound to a chair in the cargo bay with the shields around that area being taken offline then re-raised, and an unconscious Seven is seen laying on an operating table after being taken captive onboard the Equinox, but that's the extent to which anybody is restrained or confined in some way.

Answer: Deadlock

The 'alternate' Kes, after disappearing into the temporal rift while running to the aid of B'Elanna and Hogan in the corridor on her heavily-damaged ship, is recovering on a biobed in sickbay onboard the undamaged Voyager. While Janeway and Doc are admiring Ensign Wildman's newborn baby girl, Kes begins hearing the frantic, urgent cries of the Doctor and Ensign Wildman that she heard while in sickbay when her ship was being rocked by the crippling proton bursts.

Answer: Infinite Regress

Here's another tricky one! "Infinite Regress" features another memorable scene from the series between B'Elanna and Seven. The two are in engineering together analyzing some readings when Seven suddenly switches to her Klingon personality. B'Elanna simply thinks all of it is a joke when her ex-drone crewmate begins putting on the romantic Klingon mating moves, Seven proclaiming to be ' The Son Of K'Vok '.

But then, when Seven gets closer, she takes a quick sniff and bites B'Elanna right on the cheek! Thankfully, the joke ends when Seven runs out of engineering, no further bloodshed between the two often-feuding women having to take place.

In "Blood Fever", it is B'Elanna who does the biting this time. There's a memorable scene where she bites Paris on the cheek while she, Paris and Neelix are traversing the caves, the onset of the Vulcan pon farr having unknowingly affected her judgement and actions.

There are only forced mind melds and nobody being bitten in "Repression", and the only true blood being spilled in "Flesh And Blood" is that of the Hirogen hunters at the hands of the holographic prey.

Answer: The Haunting Of Deck Twelve

Partway through the episode, after the ship has already sustained a series of inexplicable malfunctions, the bridge crew is 'tricked' into believing that navigation has been restored. Paris starts to sit down to operate the conn controls, but an electromagnetic discharge violently shocks him, giving him severe facial burns.

While Paris is having to be helped up by Tuvok and an unnamed crewman, life support is suddenly being taken away the bridge, which prompts Janeway to order everyone to evacuate into the turbolifts. Paris receives medical attention in sickbay, which is where Janeway and her crew begin to suspect that what they are actually dealing with is an intelligent lifeform.

Answer: Random Thoughts

Although Vulcans in the Trek Universe are said to be telepaths, it wasn't very often that we got to hear Tuvok speaking telepathically to someone; he almost always spoke with his mouth to other telepaths, including his former crewmate and pupil, Kes. But there is a brief moment at the beginning of "Random Thoughts" where he is discussing Voyager's brig system with the Mari security officer, Inspector Namira.

In response to her statement about the brig being barbaric, Tuvok replies that there wouldn't be a need for brigs and prisons if the society from which he comes were on the same level of thinking as the Mari was.

Answer: Critical Care

While helping the patients inside of the alien medical facility, the Doctor never faced the danger of physical bodily harm...to his holomatrix, that is. Perhaps the only 'harm' brought to him was the difficult dilemma he was faced with upon violating his own ethical subroutines, having intentionally inflicted the head doctor with the debilitating virus towards the end of the episode.

In "Revulsion", there is a scene about midway through where Doc faces off with the holographic janitor on the alien ship.

The janitor swings at Doc with a blunt instrument twice--the first swing passing right through the Doctor's body while the second attack manages to knock the mobile emitter onto the floor, causing Doc to instantly de-materialize. In "Latent Image", when the Doctor is taking pictures with his holo-imager while on board the shuttle with Harry and Ahni Jetal, the unnamed alien transporting into the aft compartment fires the forked projectile weapon, blasting the two ensigns and leaving them critically wounded.

The Doctor, however, is unaffected, his holomatrix simply flickering momentarily before re-stabilizing. Then in "Future's End, Part 2", after Rain Robinson meets with Henry Starling out on the street in downtown L.A., the limousine being driven by Starling's henchman and carrying the Doctor pulls up. A scuffle soon breaks out when Rain attempts to escape with the Doctor being punched repeatedly in the face. Of course, the onslaught has zero effect on the Doctor, who then retaliates with one mighty blow of his own to knock out Starling's henchman before exiting the limo and joining Tuvok and Paris in the plaza square.
