Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "I'm more practical. I'm going to bed." Who said this?

Answer: Adam

This quote is from "Loves Me Not," when Jean came down to talk to Ben about being in love with him. Joe and Hoss said they were going to the barn, and then Adam said the quote and headed upstairs! (Thanks to Puddleglum for this note.)

2. Whom did Adam say this about? "Couldn't keep a dollar if it was tied to him."

Answer: Joe

It was from the episode "The Hayburner," in which Joe buys a small horse and bets against Adam's larger horse.

3. In "The Last Hunt" what was Hoss referring to when he asked, "Joe, did you put this here?"

Answer: knife

Hoss had fallen asleep leaning against a tree, and when he woke up, a knife was stabbed into the tree right next to his head. And the first thing Hoss said is "Joe, did you put this here?"

4. Fill in the blank. Joe: "Holy _______, the windowpane!"

Answer: Toledo

From "The Flapjack Contest." Joe says this when he forgets to get the windowpane Ben told him to pick up.

5. Fill in the blank. Trager: "That Little Joe's _______ than he looks."

Answer: Smarter

This is also from "The Flapjack Contest." Trager: "That Little Joe's smarter than he looks." Big Ed: "But not as smart as you, Trager."
Trager: "Nah. Prettier, maybe, but not smarter." This is quite a funny episode. :)

6. Fill in the blank: "When you buy the dog, you get the ______ too."

Answer: bark

Adam says this in the episode "Hound Dog," when Cousin Muley visits with a pack of loud dogs he bought.

7. Fill in the blank. Joe: "D-don't you remember you told me to get a whole mess of ______ for dinner?"

Answer: quail

This is from the beginning of "Judgment at Olympus." Joe is arguing that the gun he was using has a problem with it, and Hoss is teasing that the problem is not the gun, but the one who's using the gun. When Ben wonders what they're doing inside arguing over this, Joe says this quote to him. This beginning part is funny.

8. Fill in the blank. Candy: "Oh, about ________ very bad men hit me in the head and took that black away from me."

Answer: Thirty-five

This is from "Check Rein," after Candy is knocked on the head by a few men who steal the horse Candy and Joe bought for a friend. Candy's calm outlook and jocularity are rather charming and amusing.

9. Fill in the blank: "Just loosen up, now, Mr. Hoss-you're stiffer than a __________-ALL of you."

Answer: Hard-shell deacon

George says this in "A Girl Named George" when the men are sitting for a photograph her uncle is taking. This is quite a funny episode. :)

10. Fill in the blank. Ben: "If a man's a good man, I don't care if he's red, white, blue, or _______!"

Answer: purple

This was from "The Burning Sky," said to Aaron Gore, who was saying something against the man (Will Holt) who married an Indian woman. Ben's stand against prejudice is inspiring.

11. Who said in "Blood Tie": "Forget what I ever said about following orders"?

Answer: Ben

Joe disobeys Ben's order to stay with the posse and subsequently helps Ben out of trouble. Ben is thankful, but says this rather jokingly at the end.

12. Joe: "He really is a fine figure of a man, isn't he, Hoss?" Hoss: "He sure is. He's just rugged enough to keep from bein' pretty!" Whom are they talking about?

Answer: Candy

This was from "The Sound of Drums," in which Candy gets a little spiffed up to see Regina, and Hoss and Joe tease him about it. After Regina flings herself at Candy, he finds himself in a bit over his head.

13. In which of these episodes does Hop Sing say: "I quit!"?

Answer: The Saga of Annie O'Toole

Hop Sing was getting upset when everyone kept talking about Annie's good cooking in "The Saga of Annie O'Toole." He said something to the effect that if they liked her cooking so much, maybe they would rather hire her as a cook instead of him.

14. Who is the "she" a man is talking about when he laughingly says: "One word from him and she does as she pleases"?

Answer: "Old Sheba," the pachyderm

Ben is trying to sell the elephant, Sheba, to the store manager. While he's doing so, Sheba gets into a bag of peanuts. Ben tells the elephant to stop, but she doesn't listen.

15. Ben: "You think she's the most beautiful, most wonderful woman on earth." Joe: "I *know* she is." Ben: "Well, you're wrong. __________________."

Answer: Your mother was.

In this episode ("The War Comes to Washoe") Joe has, once again, fallen in love--this time with a southern belle. Adam and Joe are on opposite sides in regards to statehood for Nevada and The Civil War. Joe wants to marry the young lady (Morvath Terry). Ben is still devoted to the memory of his beautiful Marie.
