Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A woman sits down next to Forrest on a bench, flipping through her magazine while Forrest offers her a chocolate. She quietly declines, then Forrest ponders over his mother's past words. Forrest: My mama always said, "Life was like a box of chocolates." Forrest: ____________________ Please don't let Bob get away with his silly antics. What are the actual next words in the movie?

Answer: You never know what you're gonna get.

This line introduces the story as Forrest begins talking about his past to the strangers who join him on the bench. Throughout the film, the quote reflects how Forrest's life unfolds in unexpected ways: from becoming a football star to fighting in Vietnam and meeting historical figures. Each of these different incredible events in his life might be represented by one of the "chocolates" from his box.
2. Several children slide over in their school bus seats, refusing to let young Forrest sit next to them. Adult Forrest thinks back on all the things he can't remember when he was young. A girl on the school bus speaks to him. Adult Forrest: I do remember the first time I heard the sweetest voice in the wide world. Young Jenny: ____________________ Ignore Bob's comedy routine. What's the real line that follows?

Answer: You can sit here if you want.

Young Forrest is getting on the school bus for the first time. The other children refuse to let him sit beside them because he wears leg braces and seems different. As the adult Forrest remembers this moment, he says he can't recall many things from his childhood but does remember hearing "the sweetest voice in the wide world." That voice belongs to Jenny, the only child who invites him to sit with her. Jenny's words begin their lifelong friendship, which stays with him through every stage of the film.
3. A group of boys throws rocks at young Forrest, and blood starts gushing from his head. They cruelly taunt him as a young Jenny pushes him forward on the path, away from the boys. Boys: Look out, dummy. Here we come. We're gonna get you! Young Jenny: ____________________ Before Bob starts rewriting the script again, tell me what's actually said next.

Answer: Run, Forrest, run!

The group of boys jump on their bikes and start to chase young Forrest down, but he is impeded by the stiff leg braces. Jenny, seeing that he's in danger, shouts, "Run, Forrest, run!" Her words push him to run faster than he ever has before, and his leg braces eventually break apart as he escapes, racing quickly back toward his home. Jenny's call becomes one of the most memorable lines in the film, and you see him running several times throughout the film.
4. In college, Forrest helps his team go on to greatness with his incredible speed. He even gets to meet the president as part of the All-America football team. Forrest: Now the really good thing about meeting the president of the United States is the food. They put you in this little room with just about anything you'd want to eat or drink. But since, number one, I wasn't hungry, but thirsty, and number two, they was free... Forrest: ____________________ Bob's making things up again. What's the actual line that comes next?

Answer: I must have drank me about 15 Dr Peppers.

Forrest's success earns him an invitation to the White House to meet President John F. Kennedy. While most people would focus on the honor of meeting the president, Forrest pays more attention to the free food and drinks at the event. When he finally meets President Kennedy, all he can manage to say is that he has to pee.
5. After graduating from college, Forrest is approached by an army recruiter and decides to join the military forces. Like most recruits, he starts his first day with a drill sergeant screaming in his face. Drill sergeant: Gump! What's your sole purpose in this Army! Forrest: ____________________ Please fact-check Bob's fake quote. What are the real next words?

Answer: To do whatever you tell me, Drill Sergeant!

The drill sergeant is so surprised by the response that he calls Forrest a genius and jokes that he must have an IQ of 160. It's a nice change from when Forrest was told his IQ was too low to attend public school. From then on, Forrest does exactly what he's told and quickly becomes one of the best soldiers in his group.
6. During his training, Forrest makes friends with another recruit called Bubba. His family knows everything there is to know about the shrimping business. He tells Forrest all the things you can make with that food. Bubba: ...shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. Bubba: ____________________ Time to debunk Bob's "creative interpretation." What's really said next?

Answer: That's...that's about it.

The two of them are on their hands and knees scrubbing the barracks floor with toothbrushes. As they clean, Bubba talks nonstop about shrimp, explaining how his family has been in the shrimping business for generations. He lists every kind of shrimp dish he can think of before finishing with, "That's... that's about it." Then the two simply get back to the business of scrubbing.
7. Forrest is sent to Vietnam, where he meets his commanding officer Lieutenant Dan. He feels fortunate to have been stationed under someone who knows so much. Forrest: He was from a long, great military tradition. Forrest: ____________________ Let's put an end to Bob's guessing game. What's the movie's real next line?

Answer: Somebody in his family had fought and died in every single American war.

When Forrest is sent to Vietnam, he serves under Lieutenant Dan Taylor, a man he deeply respects. As Forrest narrates, the film shows a quick succession of images of Lieutenant Dan's ancestors dying on battlefields throughout history: one shot during the Revolutionary War, another falling in the Civil War, and others dying in World War I and World War II.
8. Under attack, Forrest sprints back into the jungle to save his friends when suddenly he feels something that "bit" him. It was a bullet. He narrates to a man sitting on the bench next to him about when he was in the military hospital. Forrest: The only good thing about being wounded in the buttocks is the ice cream. Forrest: ____________________ Don't let Bob rewrite cinema history. What are the real next words?

Answer: They gave me all the ice cream I could eat.

In the hospital, Forrest shares a room with Lieutenant Dan, and he helpfully hands the other man an ice cream cone that he brought for him. Lieutenant Dan, unfortunately, doesn't want it, and he tosses it into his own bedpan. Immediately after, we learn that Lieutenant Dan has lost his legs during the war.

Later, Forrest shows his wound to Lyndon B. Johnson, only he has to pull his pants down to do so.
9. Forrest decides to keep his promise to Bubba and buys a shrimping boat. He doesn't have much luck at first, catching little more than license plates and toilet seats. However, once Lieutenant Dan joins his crew, and with a little help from a tropical storm, his efforts are rewarded. Reporter: This reporter has learned, in fact only one shrimping boat actually survived the storm. Forrest's mother: Louise, Louise, there's Forrest. Forrest: ____________________ I think Bob's bluffing again. What were Forrest's next words?

Answer: After that, shrimping was easy.

Forrest's mother proudly points him out on the TV, saying, "Louise, Louise, there's Forrest." With no competition left, his business takes off, and the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company becomes a huge success, fulfilling the dream he and Bubba once shared. He even shows himself on the cover of "Fortune" magazine.
10. After Jenny leaves his home, Forrest decides that running will help him feel better about his problems. He runs across America, making the news, and attracting a following of fellow runners. He helps them out along the way, but in the end, he decides he has run for long enough. Forrest: I had run for three years, two months, fourteen days, and sixteen hours. Runner: Quiet. Quiet. He's gonna say something. Forrest: ____________________ Bob's quoting from his imagination. What's the real next line?

Answer: I'm pretty tired. Think I'll go home now.

As he runs from coast to coast, people notice Forrest and start running with him, believing he has some deeper purpose. He becomes a national news story, and the crowd eagerly listens when he stops, thinking he's about to share something important. Instead, anti-climatically, he just tells everyone he's going to go home. And he does!
