Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Before coming together to produce their own podcast, what is the name of the true crime podcast that had all three of our protagonists engrossed?

Answer: All Is Not OK in Oklahoma

The podcast covers the disappearance of a woman named Becky and it's whilst listening to episode 6 that the fire alarm is activated, causing the Arconia (their shared building complex) to be evacuated. Wanting to find somewhere quiet to continue listening to the episode, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel run into each other at a nearby restaurant and swap theories about the case over dinner.
2. Like their musical theatre counterpart, which of the protagonists is shown to be in great financial difficulty and, as a result, would like some more (time to pay) please?

Answer: Oliver

In the first few episodes we see multiple bills with 'final notice' displayed on Oliver's computer, Bunny advises his building fees are eight months past due and warns the board may need to take drastic action, and we see him asking his son for money (and not for the first time).
3. As a child, Mabel was part of a group of kids who liked to solve mysteries around the Arconia. What was the "old school" nickname they called themselves?

Answer: Hardy Boys

The Hardy Boys consisted of Mabel, Tim, Zoe, and Oscar. All four of them had matching tattoos that depicted a whale. When Charles asks where the Hardy Boys are now, Mabel avoids the question and says "maybe going at it alone is better."

Charles also says that the Hardy Boys is too old of a reference for Mabel, and she responds by saying they were being "old school" when deciding to call themselves that nickname.
4. On the night of Tim's death, Charles passed someone who was walking up the stairs instead of down them like everybody else. Due to his attire, what's the nickname he uses to refer to this suspect?

Answer: Tie-dye guy

Charles suspects that this person might have been going up to Tim's apartment and should therefore be considered a suspect. He was wearing a tie-dye sweatshirt, hence the nickname. Mabel and Oliver are less concerned about this individual and prefer to focus on the other potential suspects who they could more easily investigate.
5. The cat which died on the same night as Tim belonged to fellow resident Howard and had which unisex name?

Answer: Evelyn

At the Arconia's memorial for Tim, Howard is seen crying but reveals that it's because his cat Evelyn has died. This revelation elicits more emotion from the residents than the death of Tim himself, who was apparently not well liked.
6. Although she's not a sea witch, what is the name of the Arconia's building manager who always likes to have a side hustle?

Answer: Ursula

We find out that Charles never tips Ursula at Christmas. After this revelation, Oliver decides he'd better approach her alone to see what she knew about Tim Kono. His intuition was right because when Charles shows his face, Oliver needs to buy many boxes of 'Gut Milk' in order to get the information they're after.
7. Fellow resident Jan plays which woodwind instrument that Charles hears echoing through the courtyard every evening?

Answer: Bassoon

Jan reveals that she plays the bassoon as first chair in the city symphony and apologises to Charles that the sound echoes throughout the courtyard. He tells her not to be sorry because he enjoys it, saying that he thinks of her music as "the sound of the Arconia".
8. Which singer, born Gordon Sumner, lives in the Arconia and doesn't like dogs (including his own)?

Answer: Sting

Oliver and his dog Winnie run into Sting in the elevator and this is when the latter opines about his dislike for dogs. When Winnie is later poisoned, Sting becomes a suspect and in order to have a reason to speak with him, Oliver, Charles, and Mabel cook and deliver him a turkey.
9. Charles is haunted by some looney, unwanted visitors: Bugs Bunny and who?

Answer: Porky Pig

Due to an unfortunate incident Charles experienced whilst on a 'family fun' cruise with an ex and her daughter, he's haunted by Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig - two characters he'd paid extra to attend his anniversary dinner.
10. When their car breaks down, two fellow podcasters pick Charles and Oliver up. What is the subject of 'Yard Dogs' - Lucien and Vaughn's podcast?

Answer: Horticulture

Lucien and Vaughn try to be "your favourite horticulture homies" and they seemed to be succeeding, telling Charles and Oliver that they have 60,000 subscribers and have been featured in the 'best new podcast' categories on both iTunes and Spotify.
