Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Where does the mother go on vacation?

Answer: Australia

Concetta Tomei played the mother of the Crandall family. I feel it is a strange decision for her character to go to Australia for the summer and leave her children with an elderly babysitter that they are unfamiliar and uncomfortable with.

2. What does Zach refer to his girlfriend as?

Answer: Moon Goddess

Zach takes a lot of the petty cash money and spends it on a ring for his girlfriend. He also tries to lift cash from his mother's wallet. Christopher Pettiet was the actor that played Zach. He died of a drug overdose in 2000.

3. Where does Sue Ellen land her first job?

Answer: Clown Dog

Sue Ellen does not like the working conditions at Clown Dog and quits on her first day.

4. What does Rose say about school uniforms?

Answer: That the students don't have a choice

Rose is banking on many districts approving mandatory school uniforms. When Sue Ellen mentions that the uniforms won't be popular with the students, Rose says that they frankly do not have a choice. General Apparal West and their jobs depend on the school uniforms. This movie reflects the educational system and the uniform reforms that were prevalent at the time.

5. What does Bryan study?

Answer: Oceanography

Bryan reveals his passion and love for oceanography on their date. They go to watch the grunion run. Bryan is played by Josh Charles, best known for his role on "The Good Wife" TV series.

6. Who plays the helpful assistant named Cathy?

Answer: Kimmy Robertson

Cathy is extremely helpful to Sue Ellen with the QED report. Robertson was on the TV series "Twin Peaks".

7. On the lunch date with Gus, how does Sue Ellen order her drink?

Answer: A little of both (sweet and sour)

Sue Ellen is not an experienced drinker and orders her drink unconventionally. The waiter raises his eyebrows as Gus continues his pursuit of Sue Ellen.

8. Where do Rose and Gus go away for the weekend?

Answer: Santa Barbara

Rose wants Gus to fully commit to their relationship. Gus has other ideas. Rose has a good job and is fighting to keep her job. Gus may be good at his job but he is causing the company to be less functional than it could be.

9. What song plays during the montage scene where Melissa excels at baseball?

Answer: Keep the Faith

This is a fun montage that shows the Crandall family as they enjoy bonding. The Crandalls overcome their challenges and build camaraderie over the course of the summer.

10. Who is the buyer of material and fabrics for General Apparel West?

Answer: Franklin

Rose was supposed to hire Carolyn for receptionist but instead hires Sue Ellen. Gus works at GAW but does not buy materials. Most people at GAW are accountable to Rose. Franklin is very familiar with garments and the fashion industry and gets along well with Sue Ellen and most everyone.
