8 for 10
That was Charlie Brill as Arne Darvin, the Klingon spy. He was Capt. Harry Lipschitz on the tv series Silk Stalkings. He and his wife Mitzi McCall performed sketch comedy on The Ed Sullivan Show on the same episode as The Beatles' first appearance on February 9, 1964.
I got 8 correct. That was no tribble at all!
10/10. One of the best episodes of any show ever written. The dry wit is amazing and the comedy timing is perfect.

I remember my brother actually bought some Tribbles through the mail. They didn't do anything. They were just balls of fake fur. Didn't purr, didn't eat anything either. I guess that's why they died.

Sorry to hear your Tribbles died. However maybe it was good that they didn't do anything. Otherwise you may have had a Gremlin-like situation on your hands.
True. We need to look on the bright side.
Either that or the company sent us some defective Tribbles. Hey, we were scammed!

Too funny Zip....You should ask them to replace them, and include a Starship Enterprise replica( scale model) of course, unless you have room for a full size. LOL
Ooh, that was a long time ago. They probably do have ones that purr now, plus connect you to whatever through Alexa.
We did have the model of the Enterprise. I remember playing with it many times, even after the warp nacelles broke off. We had the communicator and phaser as well. Boy, do I wish I still had those.

Kinda like sea monkeys -- they wee bogus!
8/10 GREAT episode! 🖖
9 of 10. I didn't know how long to get rid of all the tribbles (#7). I was 2 of 3 on true guesses.
😆
7/10…Highly illogical. 🖖
6 of ten never watched the full episode
9/10. Missed #4.
I seem to remember McCoy saying, "They're born pregnant, which saves a lot of time."
Easy quiz; 9/10. It's one of my favorite episodes.
