Name That Episode #8 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Tuvix

After much debate regarding the humane rights of the man who was the transporter accident merging of Neelix and Tuvok, Janeway decides it's best to go through with the procedure that would reverse that accident and return her two crewmembers back to their former selves. Towards the end of the episode, Janeway is walking with Tuvix and a couple of security officers en route to sickbay and, upon entering, orders the merged alien onto one of the bio-beds so that the reversing procedure can be conducted swiftly. Once the process is complete, Tuvix is never seen again for the remainder of the episode.

In "Phage", the two Vidiian surgeons who transport onto Voyager and assist in the procedure to perform the lung transplant for Neelix are not escorted into sickbay by Janeway nor seen being escorted into sickbay at all.

In "Critical Care", all of the medical activity occurred within the alien hospital facility where the Doctor was trying his level best to help heal the various sick patients while Janeway was safely onboard Voyager the whole time. "Infinite Regress" did show Janeway and the Doctor, not a team of security officers, escorting a schizophrenic Seven into sickbay once she began suffering from the Ferengi personality while the trio were together in the astrometrics lab. And Seven was seen at the end of the episode with Naomi Wildman after Tuvok's mind meld ceased the schizophrenia and Voyager's battle with Species 6339 to protect the Borg vinculum was over.

Answer: Heroes And Demons

The first 'away team' to rescue Harry from his own "Beowulf" program on the holodeck consisted of Tuvok and Chakotay who, upon entering the holodeck, are barely missed as being the targets of a giant arrow shot from the bow of a holographic representation of Freya. Of course, the second 'away team' consisted of just the Doctor himself, who single-handedly defeats the photonic alien representing Grendel in the castle hall.

In "The Bride Of Chaotica!", Tuvok and Paris do enter the Chaotica program together when trying to get to the bottom of the dilemma that has Voyager trapped in the domain of the '5th Dimension' aliens, and there is weapons fire taking place in the sky in the distance, but none of that weapons fire is targeted at the two lieutenants.

In "Worst Case Scenario", although Tuvok and Paris are threatened with phaser fire by the holographic Seska in Tuvok's "Insurrection Alpha" program, Seska, nor any of the other holographic Maquis, ever actually fire at the two lieutenants, whether is it is when they're first accessing the program together or when they're being confronted by Seska several times later on.

In "Concerning Flight", Tuvok is paired up with Janeway while on the planet searching for the stolen Federation technology. Although they do encounter the holographic interpretation of Leonardo da Vinci, courtesy of the Doctor's stolen mobile emitter, they don't actually ever enter a holographic environment together, as da Vinci's workshop, in fact, was an actual physical place. Only Janeway stepped foot inside a holographic environment--the imagined da Vinci workshop on the holodeck at the very beginning of the episode.

Answer: Sacred Ground

The noise-making 'gatekeepers' hiding inside of the vase-like object referred to as the Nesset by Janeway's Nechani guide could be considered as insects or creatures of some kind, but these are never seen, even though they do sting Janeway's arm when she places her hand inside of the vase. And although the rest of the ritual that Janeway embarked on in this episode took place in primarily outdoor environments on the Nechani homeworld, no other animals or creatures are ever encountered.

In "Pathfinder", our beloved Lieutenant Barclay is in his apartment entertaining Counselor Troi when Neelix, his pet cat, creeps into the living room and begins licking up some of the ice cream that Barclay replicated for his Betazoid guest.

In "Ex Post Facto", Tolan Ren and Lidell Ren's pet Banean dog, Neeka, is seen on a couple of occasions, most importantly towards the end of the episode when Tuvok reveals Neeka to be the special witness to Tolan Ren's murder.

In "Tattoo", a bird attacks Neelix (the real Talaxian morale officer this time) in his eye while he is on the away mission with B'Elanna, Tuvok and Chakotay. Why did it always seem like Neelix was the one getting attacked on these away missions while everyone else got to have all the fun by accomplishing all of the important stuff?

Answer: Spirit Folk

The sequel to the 'holodeck episode' based in the Tom Paris-created fictional interpretation of the Irish town called Fair Haven saw the holographic characters believing the Voyager crewmembers to be mystical people with strange powers. Paris playfully manipulates the Maggie character so that she is changed into a cow just when she and an expectant Harry Kim are about to kiss.

Unfortunately, one of the other Fair Haven townspeople witnesses this transformation, which is just one of many occurrences which leads the townspeople to deem that all of the Voyager crewmembers partaking in the program are indeed 'spirit folk', as the episode title suggests. Surprisingly, there are no kind of similar holographic transformations that take place in the any of the 'Captain Proton' scenarios, which were featured in "Night", "Thirty Days", "The Bride Of Chaotica!" and, briefly, in "Shattered" (in one of the alternate timeline fragments), although Harry does change the Doctor's colors at the beginning of "Night" so that he can match the black-and-white environment of the rest of the program.

Answer: One

Seven hallucinated several different things while the rest of the crew was in stasis during the month-long journey through the radiation-filled Mutara Nebula. In addition to hearing voices, plus hallucinating images of radiation-scarred crewmembers on the bridge, a Borg drone and an alien claiming to know that Borg drones can't stand being alone, Seven also imagines herself standing in a snowy, mountainous habitat of some kind outdoors while regenerating in her alcove in the cargo bay.

In "Friendship One", the nuclear winter had really happened as a result of the radiation on the planet where the Friendship One probe is found.

There were no such cold, wintry images seen in "One Small Step" nor anywhere in the "Flotter" fairy tale adventures that Neelix explores with Naomi Wildman on the holodeck in "Once Upon A Time".

Answer: Unforgettable

This one is fairly tricky. In "Unforgettable", Chakotay is in the mess hall following the capture of Kellin, the Ramuran bounty hunter that he'd fallen in love with earlier in the episode. In order to have a permanent record of their love affair, as Ramurans had the capability of erasing the memories of those who came into contact with their species, Chakotay is using regular pen and paper (which we've been doing on Earth for centuries and STILL do here on Earth in the year 2015, even with all of our fancy Smartphones, tablets and other computer gizmos and gadgets) to write everything down instead of a PADD, which Neelix observes when he comes to the table where Voyager's first officer is sitting.

In "11:59", Neelix's quizzing of Janeway about the Millennium Gate project is what led to the captain's retelling of the story told to her, represented by images of Janeway working at a bookstore in Indiana.

But Neelix, of course, wasn't actually there in Indiana at the time of the events to observe anyone in the bookstore writing anything by hand. Further, there certainly wasn't anybody doing any handwriting at all on the ship in relation to Janeway's recounting of the Millennium Gate events or in relation to anything else. Neelix's only appearance in "Spirit Folk" is when he's in the briefing room with Seven and the rest of the senior officers discussing a possible solution to rectify the situation on the holodeck, and nobody was doing any handwriting, 20th century style or otherwise.

In fact, nobody in the episode does any handwriting at all. It's in the FIRST part of the "The Killing Game" two-parter where Neelix, along with Janeway and Tuvok, is observing B'Elanna handwriting the decoded message he delivered in an effort to help the French Resistance thwart the Nazi (and Hirogen) movement. But by the start of part TWO of the episode, no observation of any handwriting by Neelix takes place, as the Hirogen have thrown Neelix in the Klingon simulation and doesn't reappear in the Nazi program again until the very end when his fellow band of Klingons come running in to help the Americans and the French Resistance save the day.

Answer: Darkling

After the personality-overloaded Doctor kidnaps Kes from Voyager and transports with her down to the surface of the homeworld of the Mikhal Travelers, their progress is halted when they encounter Chakotay, Tuvok and a limping Zahir, Kes's love interest in this episode who had been viciously and secretly attacked by the Doctor earlier, on a treacherous mountain cliff.

Their standoff ends when the Doctor forces himself and Kes off the cliff, but while the pair is free-falling through the air, the two are safely beamed back into Voyager's transporter room unscathed.

In "Persistence Of Vision", Kes is never transported anywhere; she walks all the way to engineering to complete B'Elanna's program to reverse the psionic effect that has the crew in the frozen catatonic state and single-handedly defeats the Botha responsible, who was never really on the ship in the first place.

In "Time And Again", Kes was part of the away team to help rescue Janeway and Paris from the polaric energy-doomed planet, but she wasn't ever beamed into the transporter room. Once Janeway used her phaser to stop her own rescue attempt, a bright flash appeared, and the timeline was reset back to normal, which allows us to see Kes again back on Voyager.

In "The Gift", Kes was never beamed anywhere...and COULDN'T be beamed anywhere anyway as a result of her enhanced powers, which quite possibly were caused by the Ocampan's telepathic links with Species 8472, preventing a transporter lock from being put on her.

Answer: In The Flesh

The member of Species 8472 that was posing as the admiral in the beginning of the episode, and also later on during the face-off where Janeway and her officers were sitting across the table from him, the one posing as Boothby and the the one posing as Valerie Archer, is seen a third time at the end of the episode, which pretty much was a repeat of the beginning with the admiral giving orders to the Starfleet officers. Except this time, it is Tuvok and Neelix who are the Starfleet officers being directed by the admiral, who ends up saying 'Nellix' (yes, with two L's) when addressing Neelix as ambassador before the Talaxian corrects him.

In "The Q And The Grey", Neelix's name isn't mispronounced, but Q does call Neelix a 'bar rodent' while the omnipotent alien is entertaining himself with his usual antics inside Neelix's Paxau Resort program on the holodeck.

In "Dragon's Teeth", Neelix isn't the victim of any name-calling or name-mispronunciation; instead, HE is the one doing the name-calling (well, in a way) when Janeway first introduced the Vaadwaur man resurrected from the stasis chamber to him, Neelix recalling that the name 'Vaadwaur' means 'foolish' from his ancient Talaxian literature.

In "Alliances", Neelix's Kazon contact on Sobras does address him formally as 'Talaxian' during their conversation in the alien bar, but neither the contact nor Mabus, the Trabe governor he meets in the caves, nor any other aliens in this episode mispronounce his proper name.

Answer: Caretaker

As the energy pulses from the Caretaker's array have started to increase in intensity, endangering everyone on the planet, Paris is helping Kes, B'Elanna and Harry ascend the underground chamber en route to the planet's surface. Upon getting there, Paris realizes that the rest of the crew, who were trailing close behind, are in distress. Paris removes his com badge and leaves it with Kes, B'Elanna and Harry so that a transporter lock on it would allow the three to be transported safely back to Voyager while Paris and Neelix go back down into the chamber to help Janeway, Tuvok and Chakotay get to the surface.

In "Demon", the real Paris never removes his com badge. The duplicate Paris, of course, was really an alien created by the sentient lifeform found in the pools of deuterium on the 'demon' planet', and the only thing the duplicate Paris had removed (although not actually seen) is the environmental suit that both the real Paris and the real Harry had worn when they first went down to the planet. Throughout the entire "Future's End" two-parter, it's true that Paris wasn't wearing his com badge (and neither were Chakotay, Tuvok and Janeway) while they were in Los Angeles, California in the 1996 timeline, but we never see him actually taking it off, and surely not before he, Tuvok and the Doctor are rescued by the shuttle piloted by Chakotay and B'Elanna, who had crashed down in Arizona earlier.

In "Workforce, Part 2", Paris isn't seen removing his com badge either; the Quarren had already done that for him (and the rest of the crew) who were part of the brainwashed workforce on the planet.

Answer: Body And Soul

There's the episode where a merging of Seven's and the Doctor's technology led to the creation of the 29th century Borg drone, and then there's "Body And Soul", where the Doctor's program is downloaded into Seven's cybernetic matrix in order to avoid detection by the anti-hologram aliens, the Lokirrim. With the Doctor safely inside of her body, Seven successfully uses the Lokirrim captain's command codes to make visual contact with Voyager while on the Lokirrim ship, much to the puzzlement of Janeway and the bridge crew once they realize it's the Doctor who's speaking to them through Seven's body.

In none of the other three episodes is Seven seen on Voyager's main viewscreen on the bridge. Seven's only appearance on the bridge in "One Small Step" was at the end of the episode when the crew paid tribute to the late John Kelly, the pilot of the Ares IV shuttle that was engulfed by the graviton ellipse, but an image of her was never seen on the viewscreen. Likewise, Seven's only appearance on the bridge in "Day Of Honor" was, again, near the end of the episode when she offered to surrender herself to the Cataati in order for Voyager to reclaim its warp core from the resource desperate aliens, but Seven's image wasn't ever seen on the viewscreen here either. And in "Tsunkatse", despite all of the time Seven was fighting in the arena against her own will, she never made any kind of distress call or communicated in any way via Voyager's main viewscreen on the bridge.
