Dr. Jackson, I'm glad I found something you liked here, with Star Trek 4 trivia.
I do realize it will take me some time to find episodes or movies that everyone likes, so please send me some feedback, folks.
Do I have any other takers on this, especially for the bonus question, before I show the answers?

He bursts out laughing, uncontrollably.
"Thank you, Miss Christienne. I love that response.
For a reminder, on the last batch of trivia, I took questions from the feature film Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home The answers are below
=/\= What are the names of the two humpback whales?
George and Gracie, taken in part from the George Burns show. Off-hand I can't think of the last name of Gracie.
=/\= What material is used to make the see-through portion of the makeshift aquarium on the bird-of-prey?
It was indeed transparent aluminum.
=/\= According to Dr. GIllian Taylor, how much do the humpback whales weigh?
Gillian> "They are mature humpbacks, weighing 45,000 pounds each."
Nice going, doc. Not even a Ferengi could've bet better on getting something right on the money.
BONUS: This question goes with the previous one about weight.
=/\= Factoring in the weight of the whales and the amount of water for the makeshift aquarium tank on the Klingon bird-of-prey, how much does Scotty say he'll be beaming up, something he's never done before?
Scotty> "I've never beamed up 400 tons before."
Kirk> "Four hundred tons?"
Scotty> "Well, it's not just the whales... It's the water."
After factoring the combined weight of the whales at 45 tons (90,000 pounds), that means 355 tons of water was needed for that aquarium. That's a LOT of water!
Lieutenant Christienne, good job. You also added a couple of lines from the movie that are funny.

Folks, how about I ask you for an episode or movie that you'd like to see some trivia from. Depending on how many responses I get, I will pick out some episodes or movies based from the feedback, with which I'll put some trivia together.
I look forward to seeing what episodes/movies you folks want to see represented here in the trivia.

Okay folks, I'll admit I have yet to receive any feedback, which is a bit disappointing.. I was hoping you would give me some ideas for trivia...
Instead, I guess I'll just reach into a hat and pull an episode out...
..and the lucky winner is.....
"The Best of Both Worlds" Parts 1 and 2 (TNG)
During a viewers' choice marathon in late 1994, both parts of this episode received the top picks among fan favorites.
"Tbe Best of Both Worlds" won Emmy awards for "Outstanding Sound Editing for a Series" and "Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Drama Series." It was also nominated for at least two other awards.
Guest cast for this episode include:
George Murdock as Admiral J.P. Hanson
Elizabeth Dennehy as Lieutenant Commander Elizabeth Shelby
Whoppi Goldberg as Guinan
Colm Meaney as Chief Miles O'Brien
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trivia from Part 1
=/\= Receiving a distress call from an outer colony world, what does an away team, led by Commander Riker find upon investigating the New Providence colony?
=/\= Admiral J.P. Hanson and Lieutenant Commander Elizabeth Shelby come aboard the Enterprise with disturbing news, providing a strong hypothesis as to who had recently visited the New Providence colony. Implicating the Borg, how long has Starfleet Command been anticipating an attack by them?
=/\= The reason for Commander Shelby's presence on this mission is because she is an expert on what species?
=/\= Admiral Hanson also gives another opportunity for Commander Riker to get a command of his own. Which starship does he offer for Riker?
---
*BONUS: The following question goes with the previous one about command opportunities for Riker.
=/\= Two previous command opportunites had been offered to Will Riker. Which starships had he been offered before, according to "The Arsenal of Freedom" and "The Icarus Factor" (TNG)?
---
=/\= In a desperate search to come up with a suitable offense against the Borg, what component of the Enterprise undergoes modification to become an incredibly powerful weapon?
=/\= When the Borg do reach the Enterprise, they are remarkably specific about whom they want. Much to the surprise of the senior staff and Commander Shelby, who do the Borg want, and later succeed at abducting?
=/\= What new transporter procedure do we get to witness in this episode, as referred to by Chief O'Brien?
=/\= An away team, led by Commander Shelby, finds a way to disable the Borg cube. After destroying a few Borg distribution nodes and fighting off several Borg drones, what do they discover about the missing crewmember from the Enterprise?
---------------------
QUOTES: Tell me who said these.
"Coordinates verified sir. You're at the center of town."
"The truth is.... Hell.... We are not ready."
"That's what I'm here to find out."
"Got another King in the hole, eh Data?"
"The only component of the Enterprise designed to channel that much energy at controlled frequencies."
"Fluctuate phaser resonance frequencies. Random settings... Don't give them time to adapt."
"Something of an old tradition... touring a ship before a battle."
"If you can't make the big decisions... I suggest you make room for someone who can."
"Freedom is irrelevant. Self-determination is irrelevant. You must comply.... Death is irrelevant. Your archaic cultures are authority driven..."
"We're in business."
------------------------------------
I have put several questions down. Anyone, and I mean ANYONE is welcome to take a shot at these questions. Do not feel that you have to answer all of them. Feel free to pick and choose.
Enjoy!

While thinking about some things earlier, I came up with a far easier question than most of my earlier trivia posted here.
This is a general knowledge question based on Star Trek: The Next Generation, and one of my first attempts at a multiple-choice question.
=/\= Which of the following beverage orders would be made frequently by Captain Jean-Luc Picard?
A. "Coffee, black"
B. "Coffee. Jamaican blend. Double-strong, double-sweet"
C. Tea, Earl Grey, Hot."
D. "Prune juice, chilled"
For the serious trivia buffs, can you match up the remaining drink orders with the person who would make them?
Good luck!
