"Ghosts" (US) - Season 4 (Part 1) Quiz

Answer: Fountain

After kidnapping Isaac at the end of season 3 and then Sasappis during this episode, Patience brings them both to a cave in the dirt. There is a steady water drip though and when Jay says that a leak in the fountain has caused a higher-than-usual water bill, the duo deduce the cave's location. Alberta's response to this news is to be "creeped out" that Patience has been living less than fifty feet away for more than a hundred years.

Answer: Throw Momma from the Train

Thor and Flower haven't told Nancy that they want to become an exclusive couple and Isaac wants Nigel to move out of the mansion but both are feeling uncomfortable about telling the recipient to their face. Trevor therefore suggests they solve each others' problems, using this film as a reference. As with all great comedies, despite best intentions, all does not go according to plan...

Answer: Guilty

Since Sam can speak to ghosts, turn bread into toast, and predict the weather (using an app on her phone), Patience is convinced that Sam is a witch and wants to put her on trial. The other ghosts think it would be a fun way to pass the time so they agree to participate. Collectively, they vote 5-2 that Sam is guilty of witchcraft with only Pete and Alberta voting 'not guilty'.

Answer: His girlfriend doesn't exist

Because they were bored and Pete had been frequently boasting about his ability to leave the property, Hetty and Sasappis tell Thorfinn that Pete's Caribbean girlfriend Donna doesn't exist. Since Thorfinn is notoriously bad at keeping secrets, this rumour quickly spreads and before long, all of the Woodstone ghosts (plus Bjorn from next door) have heard the rumour.

By the end of the episode, Sam is able to prove to everyone that Donna exists because she found some articles about her online that reveal that she had a sordid past.

Answer: Anything Goes

The Hudson Valley Players hire the Woodstone Estate ballroom for their staging of "Anything Goes" but quickly receive bad news: their lead performer has to pull out due to work conflicts! Sam had auditioned for the lead role in "Anything Goes" while at high school but ended up working behind-the-scenes due to internal politics - or so she claims.

When the opportunity arises to audition for that role again, Alberta encourages Sam to put her name forward and live out her dream.

Answer: Sandwich

Sam and Jay dig up Isaac's diary in the hopes that it will give them a primary source for the book Sam wrote about Isaac's life. Upon reading it, however, Jay exclaims that the diary contains nothing but "sandwich talk and mutton pie recipes" - not at all useful for validating a non-fiction book about the life of a soldier in the American Revolutionary War! If they were looking to validate whether George Washington enjoyed sandwiches, on the other hand, they would have been in luck.

Answer: Chrysanthemum

When trying to find common ground with Margaret Farnsby, Sam mentions that she's recently read "The Unwatered Chrysanthemum" and that she thought that the metaphor of a dying chrysanthemum was a powerful metaphor for a wife who's been neglected by her husband.

This surprises Margaret, who, to this point, had thought the book was just about gardening. After considering Sam's interpretation, she decides that her husband has recently been a neglectful gardener, failing to 'water' her sufficiently.

Answer: Chai

At the beginning of this episode, we learn that Sam is desperately trying to impress Jay's mum, Champa, who will spend Christmas at Woodstone this year. Due to an incident with the water heater though, basement ghost Nancy possesses Sam right before Jay's parents arrive.

Jay asks his mother to make an effort to get to know Sam, so Champa makes them some chai to drink while they sit and chat. Much to Alberta, Hetty, and Isaac's astonishment, Champa prefers Nancy's carefree and relaxed nature to the more uptight, try-hard one she usually experiences in her encounters with Sam.

Answer: Zombie

Coming into this episode, Jay's soul (for want of a better phrase) has been ejected from his body, leaving Pete as its sole occupant. Upon embracing his daughter, Pete is also ejected from Jay's body, leaving it without a host. Due to the incoherent sounds it makes and limited cognition, this host-less shell is referred to as "Zombie Jay" until later in the episode when Jay's soul is reunited with his body.

Answer: Dead Ringers

When Mark insists on meeting Sam and Jay's mysterious investor (Isaac), they decide to hire conwoman Kelsey to play the part. After she pulls a further financial con on Mark, Sam has to come clean, and when trying to think of a reason as to why she hired Kelsey, Pete says that it's time for the 'Dead Ringers' team to step up. Alberta, Isaac, Thorfinn, Flower, and Pete then help Sam to concoct a believable tale, and in the process, Isaac also comes to an important realisation.
