"Star Trek" trivia contest

The USS Reliant shares its name with a UK brand best known for sports estates driven by British royalty in the 70s and three wheeler vans drvien by dodgy salesmen in the 80s :wink:

Another half answer, the two races were coloured black and white, one race white on their left, black on their right and vice versa. The superiority stems from this, IIRC, the “superior” race was black on their right hand side.

For a bonus point, what was the name of the being from the planet Charon who boarded the Enterprise in pursuit of someone from the inferior race, and what did his ship look like on the view screen?

Some sort of warm fish juice, Raktajino (sp?) is a Klingon beverage. There were some also some sorts of eggs that Picard was offered during torture.

The Klingon food rations, they were giving him a bit of a belly ache.

Raktajino (sp?) is Klingon coffee. Yamak sauce is Cardassian and there always seems to be cases and cases of it on DS9.
Question:
What is the primary function of self seeling stembolts?

Bele (in pursuit of Lokai), but I can’t remember what the ship looked like.
How many brothers did Chekov have?

My brain may be fuzzy with it being so early in the morning, but doesn’t it depend on which officers are authorizing the self destruct?

I don’t think we ever found out, but they were worth a little bit of land weren’t they?

None, outside a delusion brought on in Day of the Dove.

Correct, with the two mentioned previously by Tengu. The trick, of course, is that Cochrane in Metamorphosis was not played by James Cromwell.

That counts – all I was looking for was that the two actors both played conspirators in ST: VI.

Spot was the correct answer I was looking for. Forgot about holo-prostitute Data. I don’t think that counts.

Correct, the episode was Visionary. anyrose in Nemesis, that was B4, a prototype of Data, not Data from the future.

Chekhov/Bester. Any others?
Andreas Katsultas as Tomalok and G’Kar
Bill Mumy as some guy in the seige of AR-458(#?) (where Nog lost his leg) and as Lennier

Jeffrey Combs as Weyoun/Brunt/Shran, and a few others roles I think.

Assuming this isn’t a whoosh, you can’t remember what the ship looked like because it was invisible and thus never shown on-screen.

Right. Even Chief O’Brien didn’t know what they were for and they were mentioned in more than one episode.

Another actor who played three characters is Tim Russ. He played Tuvok, a Klingon henchman when John Glover stole the Dax symbiont, and a human crewmember in either ST:VI or Generations. (Looking it up, IMDB confirms it as Generations.)

Ethan Phillips as Neelix on VOY, the Maitre D’ in the '30’s Holo-Nightclub in First Contact, and the Nagus’s son on a DS9 episode.

Additional roles for those already mentioned include Lt. M’Ress (TAS, I’m almost sure she was voiced by Majel Barett) and Arik (?) Soong (Brent Spiner on Enterprise playing Noonien Soong’s ancestor).

As for characters who appeared on multiple series:
Will Riker in TNG, the Voyager episode where a Q decides to kill himself, and the final episode of Enterprise; he must have made an appearance in DS9, but I can’t remember one.
Deanna Troi on TNG, one or two Voyager episodes, and the final ep of Enterprise.
Quark on DS9, the first ep of Voyager (trying to sell contraband to Harry Kim), and an episode of TNG on the Enterprise-D’s viewscreen where Riker pumps him for information.
Geordie LaForge? TNG, an alternate-future version in the Voy episode “Flashback,” and I think he appeared in an early ep of DS9 where Bashir helped him do some examination on Data, although it’s possible that was a TNG episode.

Oh, and Worf also commanded the Enterprise temporarily when those cryosleep Klingons woke up in the episode where Alexander was conceived.

–Cliffy

There was a Galaxy made by Plymouth I believe. The Aurora from the TOS “hippie” episode was a starship, but it wasn’t a starfleet ship. I think Olds made it.

Been done.

Wasn’t it shown as a moving point of light against the starfield, or am I thinking of something else?

7 Tessipates, to be exact. I’m inclined to say this doesn’t count as canon, but I read once that Mike Okuda came up with a purpose at a convention or in an interview. I forget what he said, though.

Who’d Jake and Nog sell it to (I don’t remember how much they made)?

What species in Trek shares a name with a species in Star Wars (not humans, if they ever referred to themselves that way in the latter)?

Lookin’ good, everybody!

Khan (or should I say “Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!”), if you answer any question, you may post up to five questions at a time, per the OP. If you learn something from your own ST viewing or reading since this thread started, please don’t use that knowledge either to ask or to answer a question - I’d like people to rely on their memories alone.

Anyrose, Arex’s race was Edoan. There were Kzinti in TAS “Slaver Weapon,” but never any on the Enterprise’s crew.

To answer an earlier (unnumbered) question, self-sealing stembolts’ function is… unknown. The writers never told us what they actually did (DS9 “The Great Material Continuum,” IIRC).

This one should be fairly easy (I answered earlier but hadn’t posted a question yet.)

By official canon there are 4 founding member planets of the federation, who are they?

for bonus points, a number of non-canon items mention a fifth, which is it?

Eh, I remembered an invisible ship in that episode but I was about sixty-forty leaning towards that being the fugitive’s, not the pursuer’s.
Is there such a thing as a “Vulcan Death Grip”? Is there such a thing as a Vulcan death grip? :cool:

No and Yes, but it technically is a nerve pinch which causes unconciousness.

Earth, Vulcan, Andoria, and Telluria?

I think the Rigellians are the others mentioned in non-canon materials.

–Cliffy

Correct, (it’s just Andor and Tellar though)

They may be mentioned also, but not the 5th I had in mind

I just thought of another 3-role actor, who I don’t think has been mentioned yet.

Rene Auberjonios played Colonel West in ST VI (as was mentioned), Odo on DS9 (as is obvious), and the leader of one of the alien races that the Enterprise encountered in Enterprise. They were xenophobes, I believe. They wanted Enterprise gone, in any case.

No, there’s the standard shoulder pinch, and then there’s the “Vulcan Death Grip,” which Spock uses on Kirk in (damn episode titles!) “The Enterprise Incident” I think (the one with the lady Romulan commander and the cloaking device). The “death grip” is, obviously, a fake, and Spock says flat-out that there’s no such thing as the “Vulcan Death Grip.”
