Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the opening Federal Network (the galaxy-wide news network) Recruitment Notice, what did all the troopers say?

Answer: "I'm doing my part."

There were quite a few Federal Notices throughout the movie. They're shown from the perspective of some no-name civilian watching the galactic news network. After every new clip is played, a voice would ask, "Would you like to know more?" The helpful mouse pointer would then appear and click on everything for you so you wouldn't actually have to do anything (just like it's susposed to be in a movie)!

In the opening Federal Network notice they actually used shots from scenes that take took place later in the movie. After all the happy and joyful troopers said their line, it cut to a live feed on Klendathu, where the troopers had just landed. They didn't seem so happy when being slaughtered by giant bugs.
2. How many times did Mr. Rasczak have to call Johnny's name, to get his attention, when Johnny was in his class?

Answer: Three

The third time was the most forceful and snapped Johnny out of what he was doing. Mr. Rasczak told him to pay attention. Then, when Mr.Rasczak started droning on about what they had learned in the year, Johnny continued to work on his animation (all kids in the future each have their own computers in school).

It was of himself and Carmen moving toward one-another, eyes closed, mouths open (I wonder what he was getting at).
3. Mr. Rasczak asked Johnny this question in class: "What is the moral difference, if any, between a civilian and a citizen?" What was Johnny's answer?

Answer: "A citizen accepts personal responsibility for the safety of the body politic, defending it with his life. A civilian does not."

Johnny answered using the exact words from the text. When he was asked if he understood or believed what it meant, he didn't have an answer.
4. What was Johnny's final math mark?

Answer: 35%

According to Carmen, the first thing Fleet officials looked at was your math mark. When Carmen and Johnny went to see what they got, she ran ahead of Johnny, eager to see her mark. When the large 97% showed up, she turned around with a smile. When Johnny called up his score, Carl, his psychic friend, put it on the big screen for everyone to see and laugh at. Johnny was not happy.
5. Who regurgitates during the dissection?

Answer: Carmen

Johnny and Carmen were partners during the dissection. Johnny didn't seem affected at all, but Carmen was grimacing during the entire class. She tried looking away, but only turned around to see another bug being opened up. When Johnny asked her to hold various organs such as the heart and stomach, she couldn't contain herself, threw up, and ran out of the class. For the scene, Denise Richards (Carmen) actually used chewed up banana and spat it out for effect.
6. During Johnny's psychic study with Carl, which card did he choose when the six of diamonds was up? (He spent a long time thinking about this one.)

Answer: Ace of Spades

After he guessed wrong, Carl told him not to think about it and to just go by instinct. Johnny never got a single match. "Statistically speaking, you should have accidentally guessed right by now." Carl explained.
7. Carl, the psychic, had a pet named Cyrano. What animal was Cyrano?

Answer: Ferret

Cyrano ran out of his tunnel system and ran across Carl's keyboard. To get rid of Cyrano, Carl used his psychic abilities to plant the image of a grub up his own mom's leg, in Cyrano's mind. Cyrano ran up the stairs. After a quick explanation of what he did, they heard the screams of Carl's mother.
8. In the Jump Ball game, what number was Johnny?

Answer: Seven

You only get a few chances to see it, but you can. The numbers didn't actually play a significant part in the story. The Jump Ball game was where Johnny met Zander for the first time and told the audience just how athletic Johnny was. He used some of the plays from the Jump Ball game during his training for the Mobil Infantry.

Zander, Johnny's rival in almost every way, was twelve. Zander was on the opposite team, started hitting on Carmen, and was in the Fleet, as opposed to Johnny who was in the Mobil Infantry. Carmen actually broke up with Johnny for Zander, as Zander was in the fleet with her, making a relationship easier.
9. Johnny's parents didn't want him to go for Federal Service and offered him a vacation instead. Where did they want to send Johnny?

Answer: Zegema Beach

Johnny always wanted to go to Zegema Beach, but ultimately decided to go into Federal Service for Carmen. Later, when he joined the Roughnecks, he commented that he had always wanted to go to Zegema Beach, but was told that it no longer existed.
10. At the last dance, Dizzy stole Johnny away while he was waiting for Carmen. Johnny said he wanted to go speak with Mr. Rasczak, and left Dizzy. Who came to take Johnny's place as Dizzy's dance partner?

Answer: Carl

Johnny had a small chat with Mr. Rasczak about his future, and then moved off to find Carmen chatting with Zander. Johnny only got Carmen for the last dance of the night. When they tried kissing, Carl came in and broke them apart and Dizzy gave them one of the coldest glares she could muster.
11. When Carl applied for Starside R and D, he got something else instead. What?

Answer: Games and Theory

Games and Theory is Military Intelligence. Johnny asked Carl if he got Starside R and D and when Carl said no, Johnny got angry. After Carl explained that he got Games and Theory, Johnny cooled down and became joyful again.
12. Which three characters vowed to be friends forever?

Answer: Carl, Johnny and Carmen

The last time all three of them were together, before they were shipped off to the academy, Carmen proposed they stay friends forever. Carl reasoned that they'd be light-years apart and probably never see each other again, but decided to make the vow anyway.
13. Who was Johnny's Senior Drill Instructor?

Answer: Career Sergeant Zim

The first day Johnny met him, Zim was trying to terrify them as a crazed old combat fanatic. Zim did have a soft side, though, which was seen when he wasn't training the young recruits.
14. After Breckenridge loses to the Senior Drill Instructor, who fights him?

Answer: Dizzy

After Zim gave his speech he asked if there was anyone who had what it took to "knock him down". Breckenridge stepped forward; Zim threw him to the ground and twisted his arm until it broke. Later, Dizzy came up to Zim and showed him her papers. She had requested to be transferred to his unit.

When she was asked what made her think she was good enough for it, she decided to "knock him down". She got a few blunt and brutal hits on Zim, but was ultimately defeated. She still stayed in the new unit, however.
15. When Carmen is taking out her massive ship, how close does she come to hitting an object?

Answer: 3 meters

The first time Carmen flew the Roger Young was when she was undocking it from the spaceport ring around the moon. She was turning and almost hit one of the docking arms on her way out. She was told to take it easy after that, or else they'd revoke her flight privileges.
