Star Trek Trivia Thread!

[Pumpkin]

Never did I think my boyfriend making me watch Star Trek would ever lead to me hosting a trivia game based off of a book called "Obsessed with Star Trek". But here we are!

Disclaimer: For legal reasons, this trivia game is NOT based off of the book "Obsessed with Star Trek" which was in fact purchased. With money. This trivia game is loosely based off the questions that happen to be in the book, and also coincedentally will happen to be done in a multiple choice format, similar to that of the book.

Before I post up the first few questions later on today (check back in a few hours) I'll just quickly go over how it works.

*I will post about 10 questions a day. We usually answer more questions than that in one session, so playing once with my boyfriend will allow me to have a few days worth of questions.
*The answers will be listed as A, B, C, or D. (try to keep up now)
*Pick the correct answers and please put your answers in spoiler tags or I won't count them)
*I will give you 1 point (or I could go with the 10 000 point system, if people need a self-esteem boost) for each correct answer. I will edit this post with a scoreboard.
*If people don't care, for funsies, I will incule sharky and my scores as we play. Than you can laugh at my pathetic 33% success.
*You can answer old questions if you missed a day or whatever, or if you're joining the game late. It's just for fun, so I don't really care.

Also, should I include the category each question is in, or does no one care?

SCOREBOARD:
Vivi22 - 28
Pike - 25
Mister Adequate - 11

[Pumpkin]

Oh yeah, one more thing. If you have a problem with some of the answers or questions, take it up with the book. I'm just typing it as it is in the book. Don't worry about the numbers in brackets, that's there so I can keep the answers straight.

ROUND ONE!!!

Category: Star Trek: The Original Series - The Five Year Mission

Question 1 (99):
In the episode "The City on the Edge of Forever" an accidental overdose drove Dr. McCoy mad and he ran through a time portal ending up in Earth's Past - and thus changed all of Earth's history from that point on. His actions inadvertently erased all of Starfleet's history. Stranded at the eye of the storm was the only remnant of the original Earth: the small landing party of the U.S.S. Enterprise.

Kirk and Spock went after McCoy, but the price Kirk would pay for correcting the time line would carry a devistating personal cost.

What did Kirk have to do to ultimately save history?

A) He killed one of his best friends
B) He let his family die
C) He let the woman he loved die
D) He killed his own ancestor

Question 2 (107):
Whom did Miri have a crush on?

A) Spock

Category: Starfleet Personnel Files - Characters, Cast & Crew

Question 8 (1791):
The Soong-type Data (actor Brent Spiner) was activated in the Omicron Theta colony. Perpetually trying to be more human, Data provided a sharp commentary on what humanity actually meant. As Data encountered a wide range of challenges while serving aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise - struggling with the human concepts of art and recreation, in particular - Data's behavior was often a source of comic relief to both his shipmates and viewers.

Trouble understanding the arts was not something that Spiner, an accomplished Broadway performer, shared. While Data performed an Irving Berlin song in the final Star Trek film, Spiner put out an album of pop standards during the height of The Next Generation's Popularity. Several Next Generation castmates even performed backup vocals on one track.
