This after Andy says it's about a prison break.

Red was shown carving the sign in the woodshop. It was named after the previous librarian, Brooks.
8. After the new library is opened and the Warden's new program starts, he's in a press conference. What color are the rims of his glasses?

Answer: black

Not the same pair he had 10 years ago...
9. When the other contractor offers the Warden the pie to get him to back off a deal, what color is the pie box?

Answer: pink

There was an envelope of money in with the pie. I don't think anyone's apple pie would have been good enough to bribe that man on its own.
10. What words are framed over the safe?

Answer: His judgement cometh and that right soon.

Ironically appropriate for the Warden's safe.
11. Who will the trail lead to if the IRS gets curious about the Warden's accounts?

'The funny thing is, on the outside I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook.'
13. Tommy Williams came to Shawshank when?

Answer: 1965

'On a two year stretch for B and E, that's Breaking and Entering to you.' Tommy was played by Gil Bellows and his full character name was Thomas "Tommy" Williams. A few years later for his turn in 'Ally McBeal', he played a character named William "Billy" Thomas. Perhaps a tribute of sorts... (Thanks to TonyTheDad for that bit of trivia.)
14. What was Tommy caught stealing from JC Penny?

Answer: TV set

He wouldn't drop it though, or he would've gotten charged with destruction of property, too.

Answer: female

He had a 'young wife and a new baby girl'.
16. What does Tommy confess to Andy?

Answer: He don't read so good.

Although the others are probably true also, he told Andy 'I don't read so good.' Andy corrected him with 'Well. You don't read so well.'
17. What was the sentence Andy and Tommy were underlining nouns in?

Answer: The cat crept up the tree and climbed out on a limb.

Tommy missed 'limb'.

Answer: Because it occupied his mind.

Red saw it as being for the same reason Andy worked on the library - a way to make it through the lagging pace of prison time.
19. Who was on Andy's wall in 1966?

Answer: Raquel Welch

When Tommy was doing his exams.
20. What name is in Tommy's tattoo?
