Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How did Ronald Miller earn his money?

Answer: Mowing lawns

This is why the jocks at school sometimes called him "Lawn Boy".

2. What kind of car did Cindy Mancini drive?

Answer: A white VW Rabbit convertible

This film was made long before Volkswagens became the car of choice for many teenage girl drivers by the turn of the century.

3. When Ronald paid Cindy $1,000 to be his girlfriend for a month, he originally saved the money to buy something else. What was it?

Answer: A telescope

Astronomy was one of Ronald's favorite hobbies.

4. How did Ronald's friends spend their weekends?

Answer: Playing cards

"Cards with the 'Tards," says Ronald's little brother Chuck.

5. When Cindy drove Ronald home from school one afternoon, how did he offer Cindy his thanks?

Answer: By washing her car

The only scene in the movie that made reference to Ronald's mowing her lawn was near the end of the film when Cindy paid him; and there was no scenes involving taking out trash at all; and Cindy and her mom never owned a dog.

6. For the last day of their "relationship" where did Ronald take Cindy?

Answer: To an airplane graveyard

It was apparent that aviation was another of Ronald's interests.

7. Ronald learned the latest dance from "American Bandstand".

Answer: False

This was a tricky one. It was true that Ronald had intended to learn the latest dance craze from "American Bandstand"; but in fact, after he had his little brother Chuck surfed the channels until he got what he thought was "Bandstand", it was actually on a PBS educational show teaching the African Anteater Dance!

8. What off-the-wall excuse does Cindy have her mother give when Ronald tried to call her to patch things up?

Answer: She was out of the country

"That was a good one, by the way," said Ronald.

9. What did Ronald do that won back the respect from his classmates--as well as Cindy's love for him?

Answer: Stood up for Kenneth

Ronald defended Kenneth's honor when Kenneth was being chased away by the jocks for helping Patti with her school work.

10. What was the movie's original title called before it was released?

Answer: Boy Rents Girl

The producers decided to change the title when it was decided that the Beatles song, "Can't Buy Me Love", would be on the soundtrack.
