You know, don't answer that. I don't want to know.
Just slept through my alarm this morning. I'm just not a morning person regardless of how much sleep I get.

Same answers I gave and all correct but the last one. Although the 2nd question it was actually the original Enterprise NCC-1701 no bloody A, B, C or D.

Answer to the last question is Qui'Tu also spelled Qi'Tu. On screen it's only referred to in ST:V.

Kudos for the Scotty reference. lol

It was NCC-1701-A. Looked up on Memory Alpha to confirm:

Originally Posted by Memory Alpha USS Yorktown
"According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia (3rd ed., p. 572), "Roddenberry reportedly suggested the second USS Enterprise-A, launched at the end of Star Trek IV, had previously been named USS Yorktown since it seemed unlikely that Starfleet could have built a new Enterprise so quickly. If this was the case, the Yorktown may have made it safely back to Earth and been repaired and renamed, or perhaps there was a newer, replacement Yorktown already under construction at the time of the probe crisis." The latter scenario could be supported by dialog from Star Trek V where the Enterprise is described as a "new ship" by Scotty.

The season four internal studio document, Star Trek: The Next Generation Writers' Technical Manual (2nd ed. p. 6), co-written by Michael Okuda, emphatically stated this to be the case, reaffirmed in the later officially-endorsed Star Trek Fact Files and the 2010 reference book USS Enterprise Owners' Workshop Manual. This was further validated when, in the later Encyclopedia, Mike Okuda described the Yorktown in 2293 as the second ship to bear this name.

Yes I'm going to start on Inner Light again... It's ****ing AMAZING!

That's different actually. In early versions of the original scripts (well before production) of the TOS pilot episode the ship was actually called the Yorktown not the Enterprise.

Neither did I and I think I've only seen it twice, so it figures I didn't get it either. It's funny though the guy who does the trivia said one person got the answer who just randomly decided to show up. Jen and I were the only one who knew it was going to be Star Trek night lol.
