Trekkin' Through The Universe Pt. 3 Quiz

Answer: Jean-Luc

Inconsistencies arose, and when Riker learned that his purported 'wife', Min, was the 'Minuet' from a holodeck program in the past, he knew that he was trapped in some kind of elaborate simulation. The character charading as Riker's 'son' turned out to be an alien creature alone on the planet, yearning for companionship.

Question by reedy

Answer: "First Contact"

Neither "The Voyage Home" nor "Insurrection" occur as both episode titles as well as movies, although there is an episode of "Star Trek: Voyager" entitled "Nemesis".

In the episode "First Contact", Commander Riker was evaluating a species who were developing warp technology, however he ended up in a hospital, forcing Captain Picard and Deanna Troi to contact the Malcorian government to try and arrange for his safe return.

Question by Daddy19

Answer: Worf resigned his commision

The incorrect options have all happened in other episodes of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" or "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine". Worf appeared to die during fifth season "Next Generation" episode "Ethics", but reserve body functions kicked in to allow his survival.

Worf challenged Gowron on two occasions during the run of "Deep Space Nine".

Finally, Worf had already accepted discommendation to protect the Klingon Empire from civil war during the season three "Next Generation" episode, "Sins of the Father".

Question by nasty_liar

Answer: Ressik

The planet Kataan died a thousand years earlier when its sun went supernova. The probe was launched by citizens of the Ressik community in the hopes that someone would find it and relive their memories, so they would not be forgotten. Inside the probe was a flute which Kamin, whose life Picard lived, had learned to play. Picard had received Kamin's knowledge of how to play it.

Question by reedy

Answer: Nick Locarno

If you checked Tom Paris you got the right actor but the wrong series (Robert Duncan McNeill played both parts). Joshua Albert was the cadet who was killed and Sito Jaxa was a member of the squadron in this season five episode. They were attempting the Kolvoord Starburst, a banned maneuver in which five craft fly within ten meters of each other and ignite their plasma trails, creating a star burst effect. Locarno talked the squadron into trying it to impress the people gathering for the graduation ceremony.

Question by CmdrK

Answer: 6

Even after Worf had vanquished the villains (both a different Data), the simulation didn't end until the saloon owner (another Data) gave Worf a big kiss. Hilarious.

Of course, it wouldn't be a true 'Western' if the Enterprise didn't end the episode without flying off into the sunset.

Question by reedy

Answer: His artificial heart was failing

At a conference, Picard was ambushed by Lenarians who shot him with a compressed tetryon beam, causing his artificial heart to short-circuit. Q gave Picard the chance to change the event which required him to get the artificial heart (as a newly-graduated ensign, Picard was stabbed through the heart by a Naussican during a bar fight!). The episode follows Picard on another path in life, one which was boring and routine. At the end, Picard told Riker that, in trying to trim a few "loose threads" from his past, he unraveled the tapestry of his life.

Question by CmdrK

Answer: No

Deanna already held the rank of Lt. Commander at the start of the episode. Her final challenge to be promoted to Commander was to pass the bridge officer's test. It took her several attempts, however she passed when she realized she had to order a friend to his death to save the rest of the ship.
