Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The first season began with the show's narrator, Mary Alice Young, committing suicide by a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. It was revealed that Mary Alice was being blackmailed by a devious neighbor desperate for cash. Which neighbor was blackmailing Mary Alice?

Answer: Martha Huber

It would be the mystery and circumstances of Mary Alice's suicide that would captivate the housewives of Wisteria Lane for all of first season, and it would also be the reason that Mary Alice's husband, Paul, would come to murder Martha Huber for her unapologetic blackmailing scheme against his wife.
2. In the first season, Carlos' mother, Juanita, was struck by a speeding car after she had just gotten proof of Gabby's affair with John Rowland. Who struck Juanita Solis with their car?

Answer: Andrew Van De Kamp

The mystery of Juanita's hit-and-run had yet to be revealed as of the start of the show's sixth season, but (among many other things) it was this incident and Andrew's refusal to take adequate responsibility for his actions that lead to Bree abandoning him along the roadside in the show's second season.
3. One of the great mysteries of the third season was the murder of Monique Polier, a former client of Mike's and Orson's former mistress. Even though Orson was a suspect and Mike was arrested for the crime, her murder was actually committed by whom?

Answer: Gloria Hodge

The full extent of Gloria's devious and cunning manipulations in her son's life was truly realized on the night when she drugged Bree and tried to fake her suicide. Fortunately Orson was able to stop her, an incident that lead to Gloria having a paralyzing stroke, which fortuitously allowed the truth of Monique's death to remain a secret forever.
4. In the third season, it was revealed that Karen McCluskey had been storing her husband, Gilbert's, dead body in her basement storage freezer. While Parker Scavo may have sen him when he went looking for a popsicle, which neighbor called the police when she discovered the foul smelling body the next day?

Answer: Ida Greenberg

The reason Karen froze her husband's body related to his pension checks which, after his death several years earlier, she had discovered were still listed in his first wife's name, a woman he hadn't been married to in over 30 years. Karen knew she needed his pension fund to keep her home, so this is what prompted her to freeze his body and never tell a soul.
5. After the tornado devastated Wisteria Lane in the fourth season, three people were left dead. Which of the following characters was NOT killed by the tornado's fury?

Answer: Adam Mayfair

Victor was trying to attack Carlos during the tornado and was killed when a white picket fencepost pierced his body; Ida was crushed under Karen's house and Sylvia was swept up into the funnel when she foolishly opened Bree's front door during the peak of the storm's fury.
6. In the fourth season, Tom Scavo's professional and romantic rival, Rick Coletti, returned and started his own restaurant right down the block from Scavo's Pizzeria. During the Founder's Ball, an enormous fire ravaged the building and destroyed the restaurant. Which of the Scavo children was NOT involved (in some way) in setting the fire that destroyed Rick's place?

Answer: Parker

After the kids overheard Tom talk to Lynette about how Rick was trying to take her away from him and the kids, Porter and Preston were frightened and angry and wanted to "blow Rick up." While they considered doing it with dynamite, Kayla told them that no one had dynamite, "but everyone has matches," which prompted them to find a book of the pizzeria's matches, travel to the store on their bikes, and set his restaurant on fire.
7. In the fifth season a terrible fire ravaged a local nightclub where the men's neighborhood garage band was playing in the 'Battle of the Bands.' Who set the club on fire?

Answer: Dave Williams

The devastation and death caused by the fire wouldn't have been that bad had Warren Schilling not locked all of the exits/entrances after his altercation with Porter over his wife's infidelity. While Dave emerged a hero for having saved Mike's life and the lives of many others, he was also guilty of murdering his former therapist in the bar's storage room and setting the fire to cover his tracks which resulted in the death of six more innocent people.
8. In the fourth season, Bree and Orson experienced marital problems and temporarily separated while they considered divorce. During their brief separation, Bree saw Edie make a pass at Orson and it prompted her to confront Edie on the street the next day. As events transpired, there were three witnesses to this confrontational "incident." Which of the following was NOT one of the people that witnessed Bree slap Edie?

Answer: Mike Delfino

As the episode began, Mary Alice told the viewer that what occurred would later be referred to as "the incident." Each of the three witnesses experienced a different element of Bree and Edie's altercation: Karen saw Bree approach Edie in an accusatory manner, and Parker was left wondering why Bree would be upset about a kiss, "which he thought grown-ups liked," and Carlos heard the sound of Bree slap Edie in the face.
9. Mike Delfino was viciously run over at the end of the second season and continued to be in a comatose state for six months. Who ran Mike over with his car?

Answer: Orson

Orson ran over Mike at the insistence of his mother, who feared the Mike would come to remember the night that she had murdered Monique Polier. While Orson originally felt confident that this secret would never be revealed, after Mike came out of his coma and went to rehab for a prescription drug addiction, Orson's guilt began to be overwhelming.

It was during one of Orson's bouts with sleepwalking that he revealed to Julie Mayer that he was responsible for running Mike over.
10. Felicia Tilman, Martha Huber's sister, was murdered by Paul Young.

Answer: False

Felicia was a mighty crafty character in the show's second season and she proved to be quite a formidable nemesis to Paul Young. After discovering that it was Paul that had murdered Martha, Felicia set her sights on punishing him, whether it was by manipulating Noah Taylor, blackmailing him, or setting him up for murder. No one could have seen the extent of Felicia's determination until she drew a lot of her blood, cut off two of her fingers, and planted both in Paul's house after calling the police.
