Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who trashed Todd's car early in the episode?

Answer: His landlord

He was smashing the old car with a hammer when Todd woke up. The landlord, Dorian, was screaming about wanting his money, despite Todd claiming to have paid the day before.
2. Who did Todd see in the hotel yelling about a time machine?

Answer: Himself

Todd is the sidekick to the titular Dirk Gently. Todd was played by Elijah Wood. Todd was in the elevator after dealing with a guest complaint in the hotel, the elevator door opened and Todd saw himself yelling about the time machine.
3. What state is the show set in?

Answer: Washington

Todd saw a news report and a missing person's flyer for Lydia Spring. Both the flyer and the report mentioned calling the Seattle Police Department with information about her. License plates on all of the cars also confirm that the show is set in Washington.
4. Who broke into Todd's apartment?

Answer: Dirk

Up until Todd got home from work, after being fired, he had never met Dirk. Gently was climbing into Todd's apartment window at that point. The episode was nearly a quarter of the way over before the titular character was introduced.
5. Dirk Gently told Todd that he was an alien.

Answer: False

Dirk was a holistic detective, who formerly worked for the CIA. Holistic, at least for this show, stands for how things are connected. Gently doesn't believe in looking for clues in a traditional way, but instead just in finding out how two things were related, even when they weren't. Dirk said holistic stood for the fundamental interconnectedness of all things.
6. Dirk is shown eating in several scenes, always the same food. What was it he was eating?

Answer: Pizza

First he was eating in the car on the drive to Todd's sister's house. Once at Amanda's house he was eating while watching the news. Both times he had pizza, folded in half.
7. Todd is a guitar player; what instrument does his sister play?

Answer: Drums

During Dirk and Todd's visit to her house they had a "jam" session. Todd and Amanda played their instruments while Dirk watched. They were playing in the garage.
8. Who hired Dirk to investigate the hotel murder?

Answer: The victim

Six weeks before the murder, the victim hired Dirk to investigate it. He predicted when, where and how it was going to happen, but couldn't tell Dirk who was going to do it.
9. How many people were in the Rowdy 3 gang?

Answer: Four

The side of their van said "Rowdy 3" on it, and Dirk identified them as the same. There were four of them that attacked the apartment complex where Todd and Dirk were. It wasn't explained why there were four, yet the name of the gang said there was three.
10. Dorian killed himself.

Answer: True

He was waving a gun and screaming at Todd and Dirk in Todd's apartment. The microwave dinged, and turned and shot it, the bullet ricocheted off the metal and hit him in the head, killing him instantly. Todd, who had been a suspect in the hotel murders, was arrested for the death. He was released later in the day and told he was a person of interest in both cases.
