Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. On the way to California, the gang stopped in Ethel's hometown. What state was it in?

Answer: New Mexico

Everyone in town thought that it was Ethel who was going to be starring in a film in Hollywood, and she certainly didn't tell them otherwise.
2. When the gang first arrived in Hollywood, what celebrity did Lucy think got on the elevator as they got off?

Answer: Van Johnson

The bell-boy (Bobby) informed her that it was actually the house detective.
3. What excuse did Lucy NOT try on Ricky when he insisted that she meet William Holden?

Answer: She was too tired

Lucy also said she had a headache and that she was fickle in her adoration of movie stars.
4. How many banana splits did Lucy have at Schwab's Drugstore?

Answer: one

Lucy had 3 chocolate malts, 2 hot fudge sundaes, 1 pineapple soda, and 1 banana split while waiting to be discovered like Lana Turner.
5. How much did Lucy's Don Loper original dress cost?

Answer: $500

The price was $500, but Lucy ended up getting the dress for free for appearing in a fashion show made up of movie stars' wives. She did, however, have to suffer through wearing a tweed suit in the show while she had a very bad sunburn.
6. Which movie star's wife asked Lucy to be in the Don Loper fashion show?

Answer: Gordon MacRae

When Ethel commented to Lucy that Mrs. MacRae was an actress who gave up her career to have a family, Lucy replied "Just like me".
7. What was the name of Ricky's publicity agent in Hollywood?

Answer: Ross

Ricky decided he wasn't getting enough publicity, so he hired Ross Elliot. Among Ross' ideas to get Ricky publicity was that Lucy fall into the hotel pool and Ricky jump in and save her.
8. How many fan letters did MGM receive from Lucy, Ethel, Fred, and Lucy's mother posing as fans of Ricky's?

Answer: none

They wrote 500 fan letters, but Lucy's mother left them on the mailbox with no stamps on them, so MGM received none of them.
9. Who first discovered that Don Juan had been shelved?

Answer: Lucy's mother

Lucy's mother read about it in "Variety".
10. While in Hollywood Ricky, Lucy, Fred, and Ethel all got to make an appearance in a movie (though not all in one movie).

Answer: true

Ricky didn't get to appear in "Don Juan" because it was canceled, but he was put in another movie which the viewer is never given the name of. Lucy got a small part as a dead woman in a film and Ethel and Fred got parts in a movie made by a man who used to be in Vaudeville with them.
