Just took this quiz a month ago and I STILL didn’t get 10/10. Guess I gotta turn in my Sci-Fi Nerd’s Union card. ☹️

8/10
I like this episode, mainly because of the speculations that he was a member of the Q Continuum. Q being one of my favorite characters on Star Trek:TNG. He certainly fits the mold of that type of being.
That said, there is another race of beings he could also have been, also from TNG, and that is a Douwd. Douwd's(at least the one on TNG) describe themselves as being "immortal beings of disguises and false surroundings." They also seem to have the same type of powers that members of the Q Continuum have, but Douwd's just seem more independent, and not connected to some overseeing "Continuum."

There. More than you probably wanted to know. :)

You make a good argument.
William Campbell also played the Klingon Koloth on the original Trek and and Deep Space
Nine. He was an excellent actor and should have had a better career.
7/10
Yep, he sure was! He appeared in the horror movie Dementia 13 (1963) Francis Ford Coppola's first movie.

9/10. Missed the Helen of Troy question. Fun episode, guest star William Campbell owns the role of Trelane. The casting director wanted Roddy McDowall for Trelane. Barbara Babcock voiced Trelane's mother.

9/10. I never thought about it before, but Trelane DID kind of resemble Liberace. 🤔 🎹

You really need to check out this episode. It's fun and a little bit light hearted for a Star Trek episode.
But you keep trying - that's impressive.
