"The Cloud Minders" with the President's daughter I'm not so sure about #4. I think infatuation is a better term here. He also falss in "lust" with T'Pring in Amok Time. I think it's safe to say he fell in love with the "Commander" (#3). There's no question about #1 and #2. Did Spock fall in love with Chapel in "The Naked Time"? > 2) How many episodes can you name in which the Enterprise moves faster > than its maximum safe speed (warp 6)? > 1. "The Naked Time" > 2. "Tommorrow Is Yesterday" > 3. "By Any Other Name" > 4. "The Changeling" > 5. "That Which Survives" > 6. "Arena" I must also mention "Obsession" and the Gary Seven episode here. (In Gary Seven, they used the "Slingshot Effect", although it wasn't shown. It surely necessitated > W6 travel, as it did in "Tomorrow is Yesterday") Also, Nos. 3 and 4 above were not "unsafe", as the engines had been modified. > 3) How many episodes can you name in which the Enterprise is being > run by only a skeletal crew (less than 20 people)? > 1. "Ultimate Computer" > 2. "Requiem For Methusela" 3. "Day Of The Dove" 4. "By Any Other Name" 5. "I Mudd" (the androids were the "crew". I feel certain it didn't take 400 of them.) 6. Perhaps "The Paradise Syndrome" (although it's questionable the ship was being "run" by Kirk) > 4) Name the episode in which a regular dies. > Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, Chekov all 'die' but later come > back to life in some manner.

(However, I think he did--that makes TWO deaths; see below). > Scotty got zapped by Nomad but then got also > repaired. (Also one of the few times McCoy looks over a body and says > the exact words "He's dead Jim.") This is the answer I think Eric is looking for. Scotty really did die here. > Chekov was killed because he > believed the bullet was real or some such farce. At any rate we are > not sure how he came back to life but he did. He definitely was NOT killed. The whole EPISODE was an illusion. Chekov didn't die because he DIDN'T believe in the bullet (or the whole thing, for that matter). > Now all these answers may be uneligible because no one really dies they > all come back to live. So if that is the case what is the correct > answer? The question didn't say anything about not coming back to life, only dying. So the TWO deaths are Scotty in "The Changeling" and McCoy in "Shore Leave". [Of course, both Gary Mitchell and Elizabeth Danner die in "Where No Man Has Gone Before". Since it was the second episode filmed (after "The Cage"), they were in 50% of the episodes... :-) ] Scott J. Berry Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
