Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Chapter 1: Once the 1958 Plymouth had been red. Now what colour is it?

Answer: faded wash pink

"Once, twenty years before, it had been red. Now it was a faded wash pink." -Dennis

Answer: earth

This was after they first saw Christine. This was sort of a compliment for Arnie, saying he was good at fixing up cars.

3. Chapter 3: "We were coming up on the construction site now; the _____________ trailer was only two rises over." Fill in the blank.

Answer: Carson Brothers'

This was after the argument Arnie had with his parents about Christine. It is also when Arnie and Dennis are talking about the immaturity of their parents.

4. In Chapter 4 "Arnie Gets Married", who does Arnie get married to?

Answer: Christine

Arnie getting married to Christine was a metaphor for him buying Christine. Kind of clever.

5. Chapter 5: When Christine breaks down in front of that woman's house, her kids come out and talk with Arnie and Dennis. The boy says, "She's a Capricorn. I'm a ______." Fill in the blank.

Answer: Libra

Before he can say what his sister is, Dennis interrupted and said he would be back as soon as he could when he went to get the tire for Christine. These people really didn't want the junker on their yard and nearly beat up Arnie.

6. Chapter 6: "I turned the radio on to _________, where the Block Party Weekend was continuing, and got Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band singing 'Still the Same.'" Fill in the blank.

Answer: FM-104

This was after Arnie's break down. I would definitely feel uncomfortable in that situation, wouldn't you?

7. Chapter 7: During Dennis' first nightmare where Christine charges him, who is behind the wheel?

Answer: nobody

In later dreams it was Arnie Cunningham, and then Roland D. Lebay. Scary dream.

8. Chapter 8: According to Elaine, who cheats more than Dennis in croquet?

Answer: Arnie

She was losing the game so she started accusing Dennis of cheating, then did the same to Arnie when he showed up.

Answer: Squirrel Hill

This was said when Dennis was narrating what Arnie did for Shop Class and afterwards.

10. The nightmare at the end of Chapter 10 was about Christine again. Did Dennis scream when he woke?

Answer: No

"That night I kept the scream in my throat."

11. Who sings the song at the beginning of Chapter 11?

Answer: Bruce Springsteen

"Eldorado fins, whitewalls and skirts,
Rides just like a little bit of heaven here on earth,
Well buddy when I die throw my body in the back,
And drive me to the junkyard in my Cadillac." --Bruce Springsteen

12. Chapter 12: When George is telling Dennis what vehicles Rollie fixed, which one of these doesn't he mention?

Answer: Cadillacs

He fixed a Congressman's Bentley when it broke down, and he fixed the others as a military job. George never mentioned a Cadillac though.

13. Chapter 13: There were three reasons that Dennis's father didn't do Darnell's work for him. What was the third?

Answer: he's no crook

First of all, he didn't want to get involved with Darnell on a personal level. Second of all, the guys were bad with numbers. Third, he's no *curse*ing thief.

14. Chapter 14: Who took Dennis's father's place when he left?

Answer: Bill

"Yeah. Good man. Good man. Not as good as your dad, but good." --Darnell.

15. Who sings the song at the beginning of chapter 15?

Answer: Steely Dan

"Learn to play the saxophone,
I play just what I feel,
Drink Scotch whiskey,
All night long,
And die behind the wheel..." --Steely Dan

16. Chapter 16: Where, according to Dennis, does Mr. Casey eat his lunch?

Answer: wood-shop office

When he sees Buddy Repperton pulling out a knife in a fight against Arnie he tells the kid next to him to go get Mr. Casey. When he arrives the fight is broken up and Buddy is expelled.

17. Chapter 17: Christine is out on the street legally.

Answer: False

It actually wasn't, it was just given some things from Darnell to make it appear so to any passing officers. Dennis doesn't think fondly of that.

18. Chapter 18: Does Dennis believe Arnie and Leigh are in love?

Answer: Yes

They got together so fast that he couldn't think of any other explanation. Everyone else didn't think that because Arnie had, until getting Christine, a horrid looking face of pimples.

19. Chapter 19: In how many places were Dennis's legs broken after getting hit by three people in the football game?

Answer: 3

His right was broken in one place, his left in two. He was lucky he wasn't paralyzed for life.

20. Chapter 20: According to Regina, what did Christine look like to her?

Answer: a big dollar bill flying away

Michael came out to Arnie when he couldn't take the argument anymore and told him that his mother was going through the change in her life. He told him that it really symbolized Arnie's first step away from them, which is why Regina doesn't like Christine.

21. Chapter 21: Which of these wasn't a car retrospective volume that Arnie mentioned when saying that no one wrote much about the car he had?

Answer: Cars of the Late 50's

He was talking about this because he wanted to glorify his rebuilding of the car by bringing up how few sources of reference he had.

22. Who sings the song at the beginnning of Chapter 22?

Answer: Johnathan Richmond and the Modern Lovers

"First I walked past the Stop and Shop,
Then I drove past the Stop and Shop,
I liked that much better when I drove past the Stop and Shop,
'Cause I had the radio on." --Johnathan Richmond and the Modern Lovers

23. Chapter 23: What does Leigh's shirt say?

Answer: Give me Libertyville or give me death

A little catchy wordplay won't hurt anyone apparently. I guess it is sorta funny.

24. What was Leigh dreaming about in the beginning of Chapter 24?

Answer: sex

Christine came to her after the dream. There are several hints at it not being a dream, and then Leigh falls asleep and then wakes up. She thought it was a dream though.

25. Chapter 25: At the end of this chapter what brand of alcohol is Sandy pouring out his window?

Answer: Texas Driver
