Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How does J refer to K's neuralyser?

Answer: flashy thing

J: "Did you ever flashy-thing me?"
K: "No."
J: "I ain't playing, K! Did you ever flashy-thing me?"

He also, at one point, called it a "memory messer UPPER."

2. Was Verne Troyer (Mini-Me from "Austin Powers 2") in this film?

Answer: Yes, credited

Troyer does appear in this movie, but completely costumed. You'd never know it was him unless you read the credits or watched the "Men in Black" DVD with the commentary. When K is first showing J the MiB headquarters, there's a pint-sized alien (Alien Son in the credits) running around in the customs line. That's Verne Troyer.

3. Why did the Edgar Bug kidnap Dr. Weaver?

Answer: For a snack

Edgar Bug: "You're coming with me. It's a long trip. I'll need a snack."

4. Rip Torn played which MiB agent?

Answer: MiB Chief Z

I thought it unusual at first that the name was pronounced "zed" and not "zee" (since the story takes place in America), but player filmeditor pointed out that in the American military the letter is also pronounced "zed". Thanks for your help!

5. Officer Edwards's line "It just be rainin' black people in New York!" was in the script.

Answer: False

Will Smith made up that line himself.

6. In the scene where J discovers that his teacher really was an alien, which of the following celebrities was not among the known aliens shown?

Answer: Dennis Rodman

You don't find out that Dennis Rodman is an alien until the end of the movie.

7. How long in Earth-time is a Galactic Standard Week?

Answer: One hour

K: "Arquillian battle rules: first we get an ultimatum, then a warning shot, then a galactic standard week to respond."
J: "A galactic standard week? How long is that?"
K: "One hour."

8. What kind of memory does K tell the "clean-up crew" to give to Dr. Weaver after J's appeal on her behalf?

Answer: Happy

K: "...Make it a happy memory."

9. What kind of publishings are the MiB's "hotsheets"?

Answer: Tabloids

Tommy Lee Jones and Barry Sonnenfeld (the director) had an argument over whether tabloids would be hotsheets, or controlled by the Men in Black. They ended up agreeing on the hotsheet idea, but neither one of them remembers who agreed with whom.

10. When the chef in the restaurant wonders where his waiter is, what is Edgar Bug's response?

Answer: "I gave him a break!"

After Edgar Bug grabs the two plates of pierogi and moves off-screen, you see the waiter in question folded in half and stuffed onto a shelf!
