Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This movie is based on a true story.

Answer: True

The fact that one woman's passion could have such a positive effect on so many people around her, while at the same time completely transforming her life, is the ideal subject matter for the big screen.
2. What is the name of the law firm that the story is centered around?

Answer: Masry and Vititoe

One of my favourite scenes in the movie!
5. Erin becomes a lawyer at the end of the movie.

Answer: False

6. What type of creature does Erin find floating in a ditch near PG&E?

Answer: frog

I find it difficult to believe that any evidence gathered by Erin would hold up in court, as her sampling and collection techniques were questionable.

Answer: trust

Another one of my favorite scenes in the movie.

Answer: 5

At first, she thought they were due to the things she did, like smoking marijuana and taking birth control pills.
11. What was the reason Ed gave Erin for firing her?

Answer: All of these

Ed was likely pressured by his other female employees to fire her. He reinstated her job later when he found out the details of the PG&E case.
12. The real Erin Brockovich makes a cameo in the movie. What role does she play?

Answer: Waitress

Erin is the waitress at the restaurant where Katie orders a deluxe cheeseburger with no cheese and no bread.
13. What nickname does George give Erin's babysitter that Erin eventually fires?

Answer: The Chicken Fat Lady

14. How much money (in USD) does the judge order PG&E to pay the residents of Hinkley, and how much of that is to be given to the Jensens?

Answer: 333 million, 5 million

According to the first lawyer we see represent PG&E, the company is worth 28 billion dollars. After the contamination is exposed and linked back to PG&E headquarters, the company must pay 333 million to the residents of Hinkley, and the Jensens, the initial plaintiffs, receive 5 million.
15. How much money (in USD) does Ed give Erin as a bonus when the PG&E case is finally settled?

Answer: 2 million

Ed lets Erin believe that he's giving her less than she was expecting, which prompts an angry speech from Erin saying Ed doesn't value her work. A smug Ed watches her jaw drop when she sees the check made out for 2 million dollars.
