Who Was That? Trivia Quiz

Answer: Neelix

Neelix loved this food and made a lot of dishes with it. However, the crew seemed to enjoy eating rations better than leola root.

Answer: Archer

Data had a cat. Janeway's dog ended up with her fiance and Picard only had a fish that lived in his ready room. Archer, on the other hand, had a dog that he sometimes took on away missions.

Answer: Chakotay

The akoonah helped Chakotay with his vision quests as a substitute for a hallucinogen his ancestors would use. We see Chakotay use it on several occasions and he helps Janeway and Neelix learn to use it as well.

Answer: Mrs. Troi

Although Ardra's name may have struck fear in his heart, she was only in the episode "Devil's Due." Vash is the woman he liked - but refused to admit in front of his crew. And he thought of Guinan as one of his closest friends. However, it was Mrs. Troi that caused Picard to hide out in the holodeck, show an ambassador the new door mechanisms on the aft turbolifts and run like crazy whenever she appeared.

Answer: Janeway

Although Picard did destroy the Borg Queen in "First Contact," she didn't really fear him. After all, he had been successfully assimilated in "Best of Both Worlds." Sisko didn't really do much with the Borg besides running at Wolf 359 (where his wife was killed). And the Queen tried on more than one occasion to get Seven back. Janeway, on the other hand, went out of her way to try and destroy the Borg - and somehow always managed to kick some Borg butt.

Answer: Archer

He is seen in many episodes playing with a ball and watching water polo games. In one episode, he tried very hard not to hear who had won the game until he had had the chance to watch it. Unfortunately, someone spilled the beans.

Answer: Riker

Although Janeway was a notoriously bad cook (or was it just bad luck?), Riker is the one who made the eggs. In the first scene of a second season episode, he had acquired some eggs and decided to treat some of the officers to his cooking. The only person who ate the eggs was Worf, everyone else decided that either Riker was the typical bachelor cook or the eggs he used weren't so good.

Answer: Janeway

Understatement of the year. During the seven years Voyager was in the Delta Quadrant, she routinely refused medical treatment, didn't sleep, didn't eat, didn't take some sort of shore leave, and drank way too much coffee. Then she had that habit of going down on dangerous away missions and stopping warp core breaches by herself. Oh, and I think trying to get assimilated by the Borg was a bit reckless as well.

Answer: The Doctor

Robert Picardo, the actor, did a variation of this in his audition. The producers liked it so much, they decided to keep it as an aspect of the holographic doctor's personality. Personally, I think his funniest one was "I'm a doctor, not a counter-insurgent."

Answer: Guinan

It seemed as though she could serve appetizers on that hat of hers.

Answer: Janeway

When Tom's "Captain Proton" program was at war with photonic life forms, Janeway was 'drafted' to play the role in order to try and get Dr. Chaotica to drop his defenses so Captain Proton could destroy the death ray. Needless to say, things did not go according to plan. However, Dr. Chaotica was eventually killed. Or was he...?

Answer: Paris

Torres called him this on several occasions. Paris loved to pilot anything - especially the Delta Flyer.

Answer: Picard

Tuvok played a lute ("Persistence of Vision"). Scotty played bagpipes (at Spock's funeral). Spock played something that looked like Tuvok's lute. And Picard played a Ressikan flute after he experienced the life of Kaimin in the episode "The Inner Light."

Answer: Picard

Picard's family was in the wine business and didn't want him to go into space exploration. Paris and Janeway's fathers were both admirals and Troi says in "Encounter at Farpoint" that her father had been a Starftleet officer.

Answer: Troi

Troi once said that she had never met a chocolate she didn't like. And as for Janeway - she preferred coffee ice cream.

Answer: Paris

Although some may think O'Brien's children were amphibians, Paris is the one that had real amphibians as offspring. This happened in the episode "Threshold" where Paris becomes the first human to travel at warp 10. However, something unexpected happens and he starts to mutate.

He then kidnaps Janeway and by the time Voyager caught up with the pair, they had turned into amphibians and produced offspring.

Answer: Sarek

Vorik went through it in "Blood Fever" where he decided he wanted to mate with Torres (and she didn't really take too kindly to the idea). Spock went through it in the episode where he and Kirk had to fight it out over a Vulcan woman. And Tuvok's pon farr was 'quieted' with the help of a holodeck program. Only Sarek didn't go through pon farr.

Answer: Janeway

Riker did have a relationship with Minuet in "11001001", but it only lasted as long as it took the Bynars to steal the Enterprise.
Janeway, on the other hand, turned up in Tom Paris' "Fair Haven" program and got close to Michael Sullivan, who owned the pub in town.

She even went so far as to delete his wife and make him more... appealing to her (making him a little more educated, taller, etc.). The Doctor, who had taken on the character of Fair Haven's priest, tried to counsel Janeway. Her reply? "You want a confession, Doctor? Alright. I've become romantically involved with a hologram." (Although Janeway did refuse to answer his question when he asked how... physical the relationship had become.) The 'whirlwind' phase of the relationship lasted three days - long enough for her to realise that instead of nudging him to get him to stop snoring, she almost changed his parameters.

After ultimately denying herself future access to her program, she continued the relationship and was forced to admit in the episode "Spirit Folk" that she had "a boyfriend who malfunctions."

Answer: Mezoti

During the first annual science fair ("Child's Play"), Mezoti's project was to make ants that glowed in the dark. When Janey 'admonished' Seven for allowing a project involving drones and queens, Mezoti replied with "I like bugs." (Seven's excuse was that she wanted the children to explore their creativity.)

Answer: Picard

Janeway seemed to enjoy having Naomi as the Captain's Assistant. Troi was good with children (after all, she *was* ship's counselor), and O'Brien had had two children. However, Picard believed that children didn't belong on a starship. He also was unconfortable around the children - as seen in the episode "Disaster" where O'Brien comments after seeing Picard leave the bridge with three children in tow "I don't know who to feel sorry for, the Captain or the kids."

Answer: Torres

One of my favourite scenes happens in Paris' holodeck program of Sandrine's. One of the characters goes up to Torres and says that he would treat a tramp like a lady and a lady like a tramp. Torres turns to Paris and says "Did you program this character?" When Paris admits that yes, it was his creation, Torres replied "He's a pig. And so are you."

Answer: Sisko

Picard in "Best of Both Worlds." Seven was first seen in the episode "Scorpion", already a Borg. (It wasn't until Janeway liberated her from the Collective did Seven's personality finally emerge.) Tuvok was assimilated in the episode "Unimatrix Zero" when he, Torres and Janeway were injected with a neural suppressant to keep them from being connected to the hive mind while assimilated.

However, Tuvok's suppressant starts to wear off, but the trio are eventually rescued by Voyager after having liberated the Drones who inhabited Unimatrix Zero. Sisko, for his part, never got onto a Borg ship.

Answer: Janeway

Picard and Sisko never got in trouble. Chakotay interfered with the timeline in "Year of Hell," but was only trying to restore it. Chakotay also tried to save the ship and keep the timeline preserved in "Shattered." However, Janeway seemed to make it a mission to play around in episodes like "Future's End" and even had Captain Braxton try to destroy the ship in order to prevent more incursions on Janeway's part. Luckily, Braxton was captured by his first officer for 'crimes he will commit' and Janeway is warned not to mess with the timeline again.

Her famous quote on this is "The future is the past, the past is the future. It all gives me a headache."

Answer: Riker

We never saw the Ferengi in the original series, so Kirk is out. Tuvok only encountered the Ferengi once in "Voyager," and he didn't play chess, so he's out. Picard's game wasn't chess. It was Riker in the episode "Menage a Troi" where he beat a Ferengi at the reception for the trade conference which had been held on Betazed.

Although he could have won in 20 moves, he was being polite and allowed the game to go a bit longer (or so he claimed).

Answer: Voyager

Voyager was supposed to be gone for only three weeks looking for Chakotay and his ship in the Badlands, but ended up spending seven years trying to get home. That's why Samantha Wildman was on board - she and her husband had been trying to conceive and she thought that she'd only be gone for three weeks. Turns out she was pregnant and Naomi spent years without having ever met her father.
