2.6 "Double Wedding" Trivia Quiz


The title of this episode may be a bit deceiving. As we watched, we learned it was not really about two couples who were getting married at the same time. To what it referred proved to be even more interesting.

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the opening scene of "Double Wedding" we the viewing audience saw Pamela and Bobby in their bedroom at Southfork. What were they doing?

Answer: Pam was giving Bobby a back massage

We can only imagine that moments alone for Bobby and Pam were few and far between at Southfork. The ever ebullient couple was taking advantage of one of those rare moments to discuss some of their plans for the future. Pam wanted to continue to work at the clothier and Bobby wanted to "branch out on his own" as soon as his dad was able to return to "working the ranch".
2. A mysterious man was shown (first) watching (Pam's) Aunt Maggie's house. Then he approached Aunt Maggie to ask her questions about Pamela. Who was this same man shown to be "stalking" next?

Answer: Digger

Obviously Digger fell "off the wagon" - one more time. His drinking and lack of money to continue his binge were of very much interest to the (younger) man shown to be following him. The mystery man wasted no time in supplementing Digger's funds - to continue his drinking binge. Digger (apparently) had no idea who this generous stranger was or why he wanted to keep Digger drinking.
3. Eager to prove his dedication to his own construction business, Bobby solicited Sue Ellen's help to offer Ewing land to an organization in return for letting his construction company build their latest project. How did Sue Ellen describe the future beneficiary?

Answer: School for wayward boys

Somehow (we must wonder!) Sue Ellen was on a planning committee of a "local church". This church had the intentions of building a home for boys but were pious enough to only work with the most devoted - sanctimonious, though they may be - of companies. Bobby played very nice to convince the church that his construction company was the one they should select.
4. As Pamela left her workplace she was followed by the same man who had shown such an interest in her Aunt Maggie and her father. This man stopped Pam but she failed to recognize him. He told her she should recognize him because he was her husband. With an extremely puzzled look on her face, what was Pam's one word reply?

Answer: "Ed."

It may have taken Pam a moment but she regained the memory of "her husband" almost instantly and seemingly completely. She called him, "Ed, Ed Haynes". She followed that with "I haven't seen you in ten years". We learned very quickly that the validity of the marriage Ed mentioned was debatable. Pam and Ed were not in agreement as to its current status.
5. Pam displayed a stalwart resolve to Ed Haynes that their very brief marriage had been annulled within hours of its vows. Ed was convinced they were still married. Who did Pam solicit to help her begin to unravel the details her first "marriage"?

Answer: Cliff

Pam found Cliff at his (state senate) campaign headquarters. Cliff was more than just a bit flippant about Pam's concerns. Ever the attorney, he told her they could check the records - tomorrow, since it was too late today - and the copy of the annulment papers should settle any questions about Pam's marriage to Ed. Pam felt she could not wait until tomorrow.
6. Pam's attempts to locate copies of the annulment papers proved futile. Unbeknown to Pam, Ed Haynes had visited Ewing Oil with the news of his marriage to Pam. Ed assumed he had talked with Pam's husband when he met with "Mr. Ewing"; instead it was J.R. What did J.R. say to Ed about the long-ago marriage to his sister-in-law?

Answer: "I will help you see that justice is done. The Ewings would never turn their backs on a veteran."

Anytime J.R. offered to "help" someone, that someone should beware! Ed Haynes was no exception. J.R. saw this recent revelation as one more opportunity to rid Pamela (and, the entire Barnes family) from his life once and for all. All he had to do was support the notion that Pamela's marriage to Bobby was illegal and the rest should evolve - in his preferred direction.
7. J.R. wasted no time telling the other Ewing family members what he had learned about Pam's first marriage during the dinner hour at Southfork. Bobby came to Pam's defense in an effort to convince all the others Pam had told him about her brief marriage. But what one thing did Pam and Bobby say (later) in secret that would be of utmost importance as they tried to prove Pam's position?

Answer: Digger had been completely sober when he found Pam and Ed. Digger then insisted on - and, instigated - an annulment.

Bobby was upset with Pam that she had, indeed, not told him of her first marriage. She convinced him it was so insignificant because Digger was completely sober during that time and he (Digger) had found Pam and Ed (in Juarez) before they had the opportunity to consummate their nuptials.

As Pam remembered, Digger whisked her back to Dallas and began the annulment process within hours of the spur-of-the-moment wedding.
8. Pam, Bobby and Cliff went the records office (Bureau of Vital Statistics) early the next morning where they found a very surly and most unhelpful file clerk. American television viewers may now recognize this actor who would later become a regular on many TV series and star in several very popular movies. Among those "The Paper Chase" (1978), "Hunter" (1986) and "Grace Under Fire" (1993). Who was this character actor?

Answer: Charles Hallahan

The part of Harry, the file clerk (with something to hide) was an early role for Hallahan - during the years of his forming a varied and busy career in television and film. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s the list of appearances for Hallahan was long and diverse.

His life and career ended abruptly in 1997 when Hallahan died from injuries resulting from a car accident that was (apparently) caused by Hallahan having a heart attack while driving. He was 54.
9. After getting no information at the records office, Bobby paid a visit to Ed Haynes. Bobby was adamant that all Haynes wanted was money. Bobby was not Haynes' only visitor, Harry, the file clerk, talked with Haynes too - about "this thing". The next day a very sober Digger and Cliff visited Haynes. What did Haynes say to Digger that alerted the two Barnes men that Haynes knew more than he had shared - about the annulment papers?

Answer: "Get you hand off me, you drunk"

Digger was sober when he came to Juarez, Mexico (to bring Pam back to Dallas). Digger was sober when he filed the annulment papers (Aunt Maggie remembered that). And, Digger was sober that day when he and Cliff accosted Haynes. Therefore, there should have been no time that Haynes would have seen Digger anything but sober.

His slip of the tongue alerted Cliff and, more importantly, it made Digger recall he HAD spent time with Haynes - in a very drunken state of mind.
10. Not satisfied to wait and do nothing as her male relatives fought her battle, Pam took action on her own. She called Ed Haynes and arranged a meeting with him. What did Pamela suggest to Ed that would solve the bigamy dilemma?

Answer: Pamela told Ed the Ewings kicked her out and she was "not going to see a dollar"; now she needed him

While Pamela convinced Ed Haynes she had no choice but "leave with him", Bobby and Cliff squeezed Harry hard enough to get the truth from him about hiding the record of the marriage's annulment. Harry had a copy - which he gave to Bobby. By the time Bobby went back to the motel, Haynes was long gone.

The church gave Bobby his construction contract - now that his family was monogamous, again. The day ended with a smiling and relieved Ewing family gathered at the dinner table.
