Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How old are Gina and Todd when they meet for the first time?

Answer: 4

They meet when Todd first comes home from the hospital. We know they are four because there is a scene that takes place in the hospital right after Todd's birth. At the beginning of the next scene, we are told it is "4 years later", and it is decided that Todd will come home.

2. When it is fully charged, how long does the battery last on the suit that Todd wears to school?

Answer: 90 minutes

This is why it is so important for him to stay near an outlet. He explains this in response to a question from one of Gina's friends, when he is recharging the battery during lunch.

3. When Todd's parents go away on vacation, they leave a nurse to take care of Todd. She drinks in the afternoon. What does she drink?

Answer: Sherry

Todd tells Gina that the nurse "gets pleasantly bombed", when Gina expresses concern over her catching them outside, pulling off a risky stunt.

4. What holiday is it when Todd goes to the beach party?

Answer: Fourth of July

Gina's mom makes her invite Todd to the party. The fact that it is the Fourth of July is mentioned several times, and all the kids have sparklers and fireworks at the beach.

5. At the beach party, what do Gina's friends dare her to do for 2 dollars?

Answer: Hold Todd's hand

It upsets Todd immensely when he finds out it was a dare - understandably. He throws a bit of a tantrum and demands to be taken to the hospital, where he meets Roy, a peer to whom Todd can relate.

6. Todd has a pet in the bubble. What kind of pet does he have?

Answer: Mouse

Gina explains to her friends that it is a germ-free mouse. We see Todd talking to the mouse in its intricate habitat.

7. What famous astronaut does Todd meet?

Answer: Buzz Aldrin

Todd is very interested in space exploration and even tells Gina's friends that he sometimes thinks he is from outer space. Buzz comes to meet Todd while he is in the hospital, shortly after the beach party. Gina watches the meeting on the news.

8. During Todd's first night at home he has trouble breathing - why?

Answer: He chokes on a teddy bear's eye

This is one of many horrifying experiences for poor Todd. We know it's the eye when his mother picks up the teddy bear and notices it is missing. She then tries to perform the Heimlich Maneuver on him as best she can.

9. When Todd begins to monitor classes through closed-circuit television, he chooses one of Gina's classes. What subject is this?

Answer: History

He answers the teacher's question about President Roosevelt and the New Deal, and even helps Gina cheat on a test!

10. What pet does Gina have that Todd really likes?

Answer: Horse

When they are at the beach party, he tells her that he loves to watch her brush the horse and especially loves to watch her ride him. The final shot of the movie is the two of them riding off together on her horse.
