2.8 "Scientific Stuff" Trivia Quiz

Answer: False

The episode began with the duo at Highland High School in science class where Butt-head was giving a presentation on his and Beavis's science project. He lit a mini rocket in class to demonstrate how a teacher went up into space. He then wrapped up his presentation by uttering a few more words about this event.

Answer: Mrs. Dickie

Mrs. Dickie made her remarks about the boys' project regarding the mini rocket and claimed it was the most offensive science project she had ever heard. She claimed that there was no other choice but for them to do another science project. Butt-head interjected with it but Mrs. Dickie did not hear his objections since she said her decision was final.

Answer: Daria

Mrs. Dickie stated that the boys would now get some help for their additional science project since she was assigning Daria to help them out. She claimed that this would be good for them, as Daria was a straight A student. Mrs. Dickie also mentioned how Daria won the Science Award last year.

Answer: Cans

Butt-head got upset about having to work with Daria since he did not particularly care for her. While he and Beavis were at home waiting for her to show up to help them on their science project, Butt-head was seen kicking around some soda cans. Beavis was nearby sitting on his bed waiting for Daria to help them get started.

Answer: Snail

When Daria entered the bedroom, she asked the boys on if they figured out some ideas on what to do for their other science project. Beavis informed her that he believed a lot occurred if you poured salt all over snails. Butt-head then held up a magnifying glass to say how they could burn some ants.

Answer: Jar

Beavis chimed in with another idea that he felt would be beneficial in exploring for the science project. He claimed that Butt-head could park his rear end on a jar and then they could observe what would happen to his body. Daria informed Beavis that the idea did not hold merit in her eyes to elicit credible scientific information.

Answer: Dad

Beavis then showed a lighter and told Daria that they could perhaps think of an idea for a science project using that gadget. She then asked them where they learned certain things about school and life in general. The boys both claimed that they learned everything from each of their fathers.

Answer: False

After hearing from the boys about how they each learned everything from their fathers, she inquired as to if they had the same father. Butt-head responded that he was unsure on if he and Beavis shared a family relation. However, this set off a light bulb in Daria's head since she got an idea.

Answer: Mouth

Back in the classroom, Beavis formulated his mouth to look a certain way while he knocked on his forehead to produce sounds. After he did this for a little while, Beavis claimed that he was able to produce different vibrations every time he knocked his forehead while shaping his mouth in a particular way. He cited his uncle as being the inspiration behind this trick.

Answer: Thumb

Butt-head spoke about his additional science project so he mentioned a trick that his dad taught him. He claimed that people who held their breath on the third breath and then eventually blew on their pinky would pass out. Butt-head demonstrated this and, sure enough, he passed out. Daria suggested the boys do this for their experiment to demonstrate if foolishness was caused by environmental factors or through genetics.
