Here's a trivia question to separate the Trekkers from the Trekkies:

Who played the crewman who refused Captain Kirk's orders to get back to work in the original Star Trek episode, "This Side of Paradise?"

Here's another clue: He was dehydrated into a polyhedron in "By Any Other Name," and adopted a tribble from Uhura in "The Trouble with Tribbles."

Still stumped? Here's your last hint: William Shatner named this actor's character after his oldest daughter.

Give up?

As Lt. Leslie and other minor characters, actor Eddie Paskey has dined with Khan, frozen with Sulu and swooned to the Vulcan nerve pinch. Along with stand-in duty for William Shatner, Paskey appeared in 59 episodes of the original Star Trek series — more than even George Takei (Sulu) or Walter Koenig (Chekhov).

Now Paskey will be making an appearance here at Weekend Edition, and we'd like YOU to ask the questions!

So pull your best Picard maneuver, take the con and tell us what you'd like to know about "The King of the Redshirts" — as Paskey was dubbed by Star Trek Communicator magazine. You can find out more about him on his Web site.

Submit your questions in the comment field below. We'll put your best to Paskey both on air and online here at Soapbox.

The bridge is yours. Qapla!
