Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who does Emma work for?

Answer: Panther Cola

Panther Cola was originally a different company until the brilliant Jack Harper and his pal Pete came along. They repackaged it to make Panther Cola, a household name not only in Britain, but also in America.

2. Who does Emma think looks a little bit like Ken? (As in Barbie and Ken).

Answer: Connor

Connor, Emma's boyfriend at the time, in Emma's opinion looked like a Ken doll. This was one of the many secrets Emma blurted out on the plane.

3. Who was Emma's roomate, who was also her best friend, and a lawyer?

Answer: Lissy

It's true that Katie and Emma have fun together playing hooky from work and going to Starbucks, but Katie isn't a lawyer. Emma wouldn't be caught dead being friends with her "evil" co-worker Artemis, instead she feeds Artemis' plants orange juice.

4. True or False: Emma has a Barbie bedspread.

Answer: True

The secret of Emma's Barbie bedspread is told on live television by the one and only Jack Harper. He also revealed Emma's weight, and got it wrong!

5. How did Emma and Lissy get into the secret nightclub, the one with all the celebrities?

Answer: Knock on the door and ask for Alexander

Emma and Lissy entered the nightclub for free, but paid a lot for their drinks. When Emma returned on her date with Jack she was unable to find the correct door.

6. What is the first name of Emma's cousin who always stole the limelight from Emma as the two grew up together?

Answer: Kerry

Kerry moved in with Emma's family at the age of 14 and has ruined many of Emma's accomplishments by being more talented or spending more money, or just beating her to it. There is a strong rivalry between the two.

7. What is the name of the magazine that Emma places a coupon/ad in for Panther oatmeal bars?

Answer: Bowling Weekly

Emma does this so her Grandpa and all his bowling buddies could stock up on the bars cheaply before the company axed the product. The ad was a huge success and the oatmeal bars are still surviving.

8. What was the theme of the family barbeque for Panther employees?

Answer: Costume party

Emma accidentally (purposely) forgot the theme so she could wear a cute dress to impress Jack. Luckily for her the company foresaw the problem and had a large supply of costumes.

9. True or False: Emma's middle name is Marie.

Answer: False

Emma's middle name isn't mentioned in the book. However, her last name is Corrigan.

10. What was Emma planning to announce during her mother's birthday dinner with her family?

Answer: That she got a promotion

Emma was very sure that she was going to be promoted to a junior marketing executive, but her hopes were gone when she spilt Panther Cola all over the Glen Oil marketing men. Thanks for playing, and I would love to hear your comments on the quiz.
