Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In "Eve of Destruction", Lurla Spettiswood was introduced to Rene as a cranky old lady who enjoyed suing people for the most ridiculous things. On paper, the defendants won, but Lurla always had a way to make them lose. What was one thing she managed to have done in her favor?

Answer: All of these

Lurla also managed to make it illegal for a man to have his bush grow over eight feet, so she went out everyday with a measuring tape, and threatening to call the police. She also threatened to have the Sims' dog put to sleep after he barked at her while she attacked Kelly and Davis with a rake.
2. In "Please Don't Tell My Mother", M.E. found a beer bottle under the couch the day after Kelly's 15th birthday party. M.E. yelled at Kelly for breaking the rules, only to later find out it was one of her bottles.

Answer: False

Colliar: "That beer bottle could've been one of ours." M.E.: "I thought about that. It was a green bottle from Germany, we drink the aluminum cans from Milwaukee."
3. Also in "Please Don't Tell My Mother", there was a shooting at Kelly's school.

Answer: False

Rene had taken the case of a mother whose 14-year-old son was threatened by another kid with a gun. When retelling the story to M.E., she told her she could relax because it wasn't Kelly or Davis' school. A few days later, the boy that was threatened killed the other boy with a gun.
4. In "Courage...It Means Heart", Rene was asked by her mother to speak with her cousin because she had joined a cult and her father was furious with her. What cult was it?

Answer: Hinduism

The strange thing is, in that episode, Rene called Buddhism and Hinduism cults. But in "It's A Parent's Job", when she defended a Wicca schoolteacher, she told M.E. that they were "pre-Christian religions".
5. "Quit Being Such A Scaredy Cat" introduced the Lifetime audience to M.E.'s Uncle Jimmy as a Klan leader. How did she come to find out he was in the Klan?

Answer: She and Rene saw him at a rally in the woods

Rene and M.E. sneaked out to the carnival after their parents told them to stay home. They took an off-road path so they wouldn't get caught. They saw lights up ahead, and what they thought to be Lover's Lane was the Klan's rally. M.E. recognized Uncle Jimmy because of a watch he had been wearing earlier that day.
6. In "Homegirl", in the past, M.E. was making a present for her mother's birthday. Rene offered to lend her money to get her a better present, but M.E. turned down the offer.

Answer: True

M.E. told Rene she already owed Tully 50 cents for fireworks, Colliar a dollar for a baseball bat, and Teresa three dollars because she caught Rene in the house three times and threatened to tell unless she paid her.
7. In "I'm Not Emotional", in the past, Rene got sick and had to stay home from church. This was lucky for her because it was the day the 16th Street Baptist Church was bombed.

Answer: True

In 1963, a bomb went off in the basement of the church, killing Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole Robertson, and Cynthia Wesley. It was later revealed that Klan members had planted the bomb.
8. Also in "I'm Not Emotional", in the present, Davis had been suspended from school for sexual misconduct. This only added to the argument M.E. and Colliar were having. What were they arguing about?

Answer: Women working in strip clubs

Colliar called the strip club that Rene was fighting against a "gentleman's club", and told M.E. that it was harmless compared to the real raunchy bars. He also added that most women working there were just trying to pay for college, and insisted there was nothing wrong with men going to them.

M.E.: "Hey, maybe Kelly should get a job there, so she can pay for her college education."
Colliar: "No, that's sleazy."
M.E.: "Oh, NOW it's sleazy."
9. In "You Really Believe in That Stuff?", M.E. got knocked for a loop when she found out Kelly had become a goth. What was something that worried her the most?

Answer: All of these

10. In "Don't Say Anything", in the past, M.E. found out Colliar's father hit him. What did his father threaten to hit him with?

Answer: A rope

Here's something to think about, in the 1950s and 60s, it was considered normal to beat children to the point where they couldn't walk if they misbehaved. However, when they did TV shows back then, they did everything that was considered normal, but they never showed parents beating their children, even though back then the term child abuse was practically non-existent.
11. In "Heads or Tails", in the past, M.E. and Rene found a homeless woman at Port Dixie. However, she claimed to be a princess, wanted dead by the people of her own estate. Where did she claim to be from?

Answer: Hungary

Marla said she came back to Birmingham, as well as Port Dixie, every spring to see the moonflowers. She also convinced M.E. that she had a magic coin with a man in it who told her what side the coin would land on. Rene was skeptical of every word Marla said, but in the end, something about her visit proved to be magical.
12. In "It's Not About the Butter, Pt 1", M.E. published an article on racism in a local magazine. When she was considering what to put in the article, she considered telling everyone about her Uncle Jimmy, who was still in the KKK. Catherine told her not to put her family in the article, and she decided it was better not to.

Answer: False

M.E. reminded Catherine of the times she wouldn't allow Rene or her mother into the house, but instead wrote about the time Catherine took Rene to an all-white hospital and demanded help. She wrote about Jimmy being in the Klan, and shortly after it was published, a cross was found burning on their front lawn.
13. In "It's Not About the Butter, Pt 1", M.E. tells Jimmy she's writing an article about racism. Jimmy says "What you call racism, I call _________."

Answer: New Patriotism

M.E.: "This is what the man at your house believes, Daddy, and this is what your 13-year-old grandson was reading at breakfast this morning."
14. In "It's Not About the Butter, Pt 2", Davis found out about Uncle Jimmy's hate site, which included a hit-list with M.E. and Colliar's names on them.

Answer: False

The hit-list had Rene and Sara Jackson's names on them, as well as Sara's phone number, and the schedule for her prayer meetings at the church.
15. In "Pay Your Dues", in the past, M.E. and Rene come across a fancy gambler, Razzy, who teaches them how to gamble. While playing poker with Tully and Colliar, the girls lose their money, and owe an even greater amount than they have. How much do they owe him?

Answer: $28

Razzy hired the girls as a lookout, he offered to pay them $50 for a second job. When they went down to take him up on his offer they were just in time to see his body rolled out on a gurney, with a sheet over it.

Rene: "You know what this means, don't you?"
M.E.: "We might be next!"
