Name That STAR TREK Episode...
- Thread starter Farscape One
- Start date
Is it "devil in the dark day of the dove" ? No I guess that trick is not allowed.
More seriously. All I can think of is "Whom Gods Destroy" because Garth is a hold over from the past battle days that could be described as a dark day for the federation.

"Operation Annihilate"?
1. People and organisms hide in the dark to avoid the sunlight. And the organisms are cutting through the heart of federation space.
2. Science divisions are stumped. Not sure that engineering is baffled though but seems that if scientists are baffled, engineers are not going to fair better on this matter.

Oh, I think I have it now. But, I will give others a chance to get back from the beach, or lake or any other fun activities they are doing this fine Sunday.
By the way, I could not resist the alliteration of my first "tongue in cheek" guess.

I just noticed Discofan's name is crossed out. Hope he is ok.
Yikes. Me, too.
Well, I will make a guess in dedication to Discofan, and I wish him well. He is a very prolific contributor here and I'll miss seeing his name and comments showing up in the threads I read.
It must be "Immunity Syndrome". I'm pretty sure others would be guessing that too, but they are probably busy. Actually, I'm busy too and was hoping someone else would guess first. But, if I'm right I'll slow the clue rate down

Correct, it is The Immunity Syndrome:
1st Clue: A dark day for the Federation. The darkness field absorbed both the Intrepid and the Gamma Seven-A system where there are billions of inhabitants there.
2nd Clue: Science and Engineering Divisions are baffled. Spock couldn't explain the zone of darkness or its effects, and Scott couldn't explain why the loss of power in the ship.
3rd Clue: Push is pull. Up is down. Etc... Scott directs the ship to go in reverse but it actually goes forward in the zone. Apparently, physical forces work opposite in the zone (but inside the ship, things work right because we don't see the crew doing the moonwalk.)
Random episode has been selected. All 79 episodes are in play.
Clue #1 Add two to become five and subtract two to become five as if the number five were the center to which all things get drawn to.

Sounds like The Galileo Seven.
1. There was seven passengers on the shuttlecraft. During the episode, they were trying to lighten the load by five hundred pounds. Two crew died. At the end of the end, there was five passengers, so, the five hundred pounds was two people (plus equivalent weight from equipment).

- Your "add two to become five" is adding the two dead people to the removed equipment equates to the five hundred pound they needed to shed.
- Your "subtract two to become five" is subtracting the two dead bodies to leave only five survivors.
- The "center to which all things get drawn" refers to the Murasaki 312 quasar in which the shuttle got lost:
- BOMA: I can't be sure, but I'd say that, the magnetic potential of the effect was (McCoy gives him a tissue for his nose bleed) Thank you. Was such that, as we gathered speed, it was multiplied geometrically. And we were simply shot into the center of the effect. Like a projectile.
Very good Henoch. Very good explanations too. There was also the 3 days to the rendezvous location which became 5 because of Kirk's curiosity, strict adherence to standing orders and love of annoying authority figures. .
Your turn once again.
Your turn once again.
You're both on fire!! 
There are too many for my mind to focus. But I'll say "The Lights of Zetar". We have "Memory Alpha" in different forms.
1. Wikipedia
2. Data Cloud
3. Memory Alpha on-line star trek reference we all use
But our versions are a little more accessible. Star Trek's Memory Alpha never made sense to me. It's like locating a library at the south pole.

Just a thought, not trying to detract from the game.
Regarding Memory Alpha, I thought it made sense because we may have wiki and other things, but it's just for ONE planet. Memory Alpha was designed as an information repository for EVERY Federation world. That, to me, is impressive.

There is only darkness of a wrong answer like the dead race on Zetar. For it to be amazing, it must be a reference to the highest achievement in history.
1st Clue: An amazing prediction of reality though not perfect, but still amazing after 50 years.
2nd Clue: A confusing prediction of fandom though maybe correct, but still confusing after 50 years.

I'm sure it was linked to every other Federation world through subspace communications, etc. Star Trek did a really, really good job of staying away from how everyone communicated exactly, a vagueness that means that it can't immediately be dismissed as obsolete 50 years later. It was pretty brilliant. And Memory Alpha was a great guess. (Incidentally I think the installation could have used a little more security, although that might not have stopped the Zetarians.) Ah, Memory Alpha. Another fantastic S3 concept. Sorry, back to the game.
