Answer: "The Quality of Life"

"The Quality of Life" was a sixth-season episode of "TNG" that left the audience with a feel-good empathy for Data, who had found other sentient artificial life forms.

"The Quickening" was an episode from "DS9", while "Questions" and "The Quiet Ones" are made up titles.

Question by Daddy19

Answer: Quarren

In fact the entire crew, except for Chakotay, Kim, Neelix and The Doctor, had abandoned the ship in escape pods because of a trap set by some Quarren which exposed the crew to deadly levels of radiation. Then, at a medical center on the Quarren homeworld, the crew not only was treated for radiation exposure but were drugged so they would forget who they were, given new memories, and then put to work at a huge energy plant.

Chakotay, Kim, and Neelix had been on an away mission at the time. Upon returning to the ship they find only the ECH on board. The conditioning begins to break down on Tuvok, and he acts erratically and unbalanced, as he tries desperately to convince the others that they are not who they think they are. He is forced to undergo treatments.

This episode was one of the few times we got to see The Doctor as an ECH or Emergency Command Hologram.

Not all of the Quarren were aware of or in on the abductions as it was mainly one greedy and unethical doctor, and some at the energy plant who were involved. They needed workers due to a severe labor shortage and thought this was a way not only of getting workers but of making a large profit.

Question by christi_dove

Answer: Qu'Vat

Malik had come to the conclusion that Enterprise would never stop looking for the augments. He therefore decided to fire a biogenic weapon at the Qu'Vat colony believing the Klingon Empire would have to avenge the attack on their people by starting a war with Earth. This in turn would enable to augments to escape and live peacefully. Fortunately, Enterprise was able to destroy the weapon shortly after it was launched.

Question by Daddy19

Answer: They rely on harnessing zero-point energy, increasing their destructive power to above the maximum capable with a photon torpedo.

Photon torpedoes are the "magnetically constrained" ones, Tachyon torpedoes are the ones that use matter/antimatter to produce tachyons, and Phoenix torpedoes are the ones using anti-gluons.

Torpedo descriptions quoted from "The Lexicon" (usflexion.wikia.com).

Question by reedy

Answer: No

Nah, the parasite controlled Quinn was easily able to beat up Worf. It was Dr. Beverly Crusher who saved the day by using a hand phaser to render Quinn unconscious. I am sure this was a blow to Worf's Klingon pride.

On a side note, this episode gets my vote as the most gruesome episode of the first season.
