Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is Teddy's phone number?

Answer: 555-0134

This number is seen several times throughout the movie, so it should be easy to remember. The phone number was on Leonard's photograph of Teddy, but of course Teddy is not his real name!
2. At what hotel does Leonard stay during the course of the movie?

Answer: Discount Inn

In fact, he had TWO rooms checked out under his name! The hotel name is mentioned several times in the movie, as well as photographs taken of the hotel's sign. Mountcrest Inn is where Dodd stayed.
3. Finish this quote spoken by Leonard: "I can't remember to _________ you."

Answer: forget

This quote is thought by Leonard as he burned the last of his wife's belongings. Very sad. Too bad this was all his doing! And too bad that he chose to forget the truth so that he would never be able to forget her.
4. Which of these was NOT a tattoo on Leonard's body?

Answer: "John G. killed my wife"

"John G. killed my wife" is NOT on his body. However, something similar is: "JOHN G. RAPED AND MURDERED MY WIFE". Sorry if you got confused. "She is gone" is seen on his left arm, "Memory is treachery" is seen on his right arm, and the "Photograph" tattoo is seen on his stomach, upside-down.
5. Leonard explains to Teddy that it must have been his "sinister _________" that scared Dodd away.

Answer: mustache

This line is spoken directly after Teddy and Leonard tell Dodd to leave town. Of course Teddy laughs at this. At least we know that Leonard did not lose his sense of humor along with the memory!
6. Who is Natalie's boyfriend?

Answer: Jimmy Grants

Although he was just another "John G." his real name was Jimmy Grants. He was a drug dealer. It was John Gammell (Teddy) that set Leonard up to kill Jimmy.
7. What kind of car does Leonard own?

Answer: Pickup

Although Leonard DROVE a Jaguar, he was not the owner of that car. Jimmy Grants owned that car, and Leonard owned a blue pickup truck. We see the pickup truck in the beginning of the film, but are not aware that it belongs to Leonard until the end.
8. Finish this quote spoken by Leonard: "How can I _______, if I can't feel time?"

Answer: heal

Sad words spoken by Leonard to the memory of his wife as he lay in bed with Natalie. This is a lengthy and emotional monologue spoken by the character, where he describes what it's like each time he wakes up and still believes she is alive.
9. What is the first name of Leonard's wife?

Answer: Catherine

In the movie itself, she is always referred to as his wife, and her name is never uttered. However, the final credits do list a "Catherine Shelby."
10. Before the incident, what was Leonard's profession?

Answer: Investigator

He was an investigator for a big insurance company. Teddy asks him about his wardrobe while he "sold insurance" but Leonard quickly corrects him and explains that he investigated. This is also very apparent throughout the movie as we see the story of Sammy Jankis.
11. How long ago, before the movie's current time, had Leonard already killed the real John G.?

Answer: Over 1 year ago

Teddy reveals this at the end of the movie (but time-wise, the beginning of the events). Teddy explains that he helped Leonard find and kill the real John G. "over a year ago" but Leonard did not remember. Teddy even took a picture of it, which we see in the movie.
12. At the beginning of the movie, which motel room is Leonard checked into?

Answer: 304

That is only ONE of his rooms! It is the room where we first find him, though. He was staying at the Discount Inn, and we find out later that he's checked into another room on top of that one. Oh, how people take advantage of a person's handicap just because business is slow!
13. Who described Leonard's condition as being "backwards?"

Answer: Burt

Burt, the Hotel Operator at the Discount Inn, described Leonard's condition as being backwards after Leonard described that "It's like just waking up". We understand how Leonard's condition feels, as the movie runs backwards.
14. This one will be difficult for those that do not have quick eyes. There is a scene near the end of the movie where Leonard's wife is laying on his chest, fingering one of his tattoos. What does this tattoo say?

Answer: "I did it"

I watched the movie several times before catching this. As everyone knows, this scene is obviously imaginary, as Leonard had no tattoos when his wife was alive. There would also be no need for this tattoo if she was alive anyway. This particular tattoo's location is on the left side of his chest, where the blank area was wherein he explained to Natalie that he's saving that spot for "when I find him." Props to you if you got this one right without guessing!
15. How did Leonard's wife die?

Answer: Insulin overdose

Leonard's wife overdosed on insulin, and it was Leonard that did the injecting. Leonard's description of what happened to Sammy Jankis and the death of Sammy's wife was actually Leonard's own story about his own wife. What a climatic part of the movie when we realize that Leonard was the ultimate cause of his wife's death.
