WHO MADE THESE STAR TREK INSULTS AND RETORTED?

Hi Trekkers, here are 5 clever one liners from our favorite Star Trek Classic and Star Trek the Next Generation TV shows. 

Quotes like these will seem pretty obvious for fans of Science Fiction but test yourself. Go on you'll be surprised.  Its a simple enough quiz of sorts but can you match these faces to the statements? I bet you can! Now make it so


QUESTION: 

WHICH BADASS STAR TREK CHARACTER MADE THE FOLLOWING POKES?

(WORF, RIKER, Q, DR MCCOY AND K'EHlEYR) in mixed order....

1. Eat any good books lately?

2. God I liked him better before he died.

3. Whereas others take a simpler approach. Say nothing.

4. When one does not have the words

5. Only a veruul would use such language in public.

HERE ARE THE likely SUSPECTS

SUGGESTIONS?


WORF
RIKER

Q

DR McCOY

KEHLEYR


SO WHO SAID WHAT? GOT ANY FAVORITES? WHAT IS A VERUUL? 

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER TREKKERS

My ignorance is on display - but they are excellent. How I wish oneliners was part of my own skill set.

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

McCoy said the second one - I remember that one well. Worf possibly said the third one.

L. Diane Wolfe said...

I can picture Riker saying "Eat any good books lately?"

Birgit said...

I want to say Q said the first one and McCoy the second. Worf the 3rd and Kehleyr the 4 and Riker said the last one to that Romulan who just insulted Worf.

Tony Laplume said...

Q insults Worf, #1.

McCoy obviously says this of Spock, #2.

For all I know, #s 3 and 4 are an exchange between Worf and K’Ehleyr (I don’t remember either specifically).

Pretty sure Riker says #5 in the season finale of Picard. (Or in other words, that’s where the picture comes from.)

Liz A. said...

Yeah, I remember the McCoy quote, from the movie, about Spock, I believe. (The 2nd one). For some reason, I think Worf said the 3rd, but I wouldn't bet the whole wad on that.

SpacerGuy said...

Ha ha wouldn't that be hilarious Diane but Q beat him to it.

SpacerGuy said...

Your good Birgit, yes to all, except 3 and 4 which you kinda nailed is the exchange between 3)Kehleyr and 4)Worf - well done

SpacerGuy said...

At the Yosemite National park Kirk buddied up to sing Row Row Row your boat in Star Trek V Alex, of course Spock's dry humor is priceless. Then there's Worf a real winner in the laughs department and not a merry man at 4.

SpacerGuy said...

Awesome 5 out of 5 Tony.... but you lose points (minor deduction really) I know its a foamer but hey. Technically your still right for #5 Riker said the words - only in Star Trek TNG - the Defector, so judges deduct trekkie points... then some might say thats unfair cos like you nailed the picture.

SpacerGuy said...

McCoy is the jewel in the crown with Q's classic poke at #1. The doctor always was a fan favorite. Worf is #4 and K'Ehleyr is #3. I have to admit Liz this quiz was good fun thanks to everyone for joining in.

SpacerGuy said...

It take years of practise and diligent denial EC.... at least thats what Leonard Nimoy used to give as an explanation when fans asked about the Vulcan Live Long and Prosper greeting with his hand.

Tony Laplume said...

Awesome. I will subtract the requisite Trekkie points.

SpacerGuy said...

hahaha

The Armchair Squid said...

Hahaha... I guess I have some studying to do. This was fun.

Dave Roller said...

1 definitely q to worf. 2 defintely Mccoy about Spock . The others would be just guesses.

Charles Star said...

I know most of these, but quotes #3 and #4 have me stumped. I've always wanted to use the "Eat any good books lately?" line in real life, but the opportunity has never come up.

SpacerGuy said...

Thanks Squid in fact you're not the only one 178 episodes of TNG for only one series!

SpacerGuy said...

You got it HSD and the rest have been answered.

SpacerGuy said...

Kirk in Star Trek IV I believe - can't quite place the act

SpacerGuy said...

i posted as Kieran Paul from my facebook page couldn't get the google link to work. K'Ehleyr and Worf, James. No1 is funny I've thought about using it at work...

The Armchair Squid said...

So much to explore. That is why Trek is so gratifying.
