Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The vast majority of the show was shot in the squad room but some scenes were shot in the characters' homes. Which of these did we NOT see?

Answer: Dietrich's apartment

Episode 1 begins in Barney's apartment where we meet Barney's wife Elizabeth and his two children. We see Fish's apartment when he has threatened to quit rather than possibly be relegated to restricted duty. Chano Amenguale is shown is his apartment dealing with the repercussions of him being forced to shoot and kill two bank robbers.

As much as I would have liked to see what it looked like, we never see Dietrich's apartment.
2. Several cast members appeared as "guest criminals" before appearing as police officers on the show. Which of these did NOT?

Answer: Ron Glass

Did this one get you? Had you not heard of Paul Lieber so you picked him? Nope. He played a gunman who, along with an accomplice, held the squad members hostage briefly before giving up. He was added to the squad as Dorsey for a short time but was soon dropped. Ron Carey appeared as a burglar before being added as officer Carl Levitt. Steve Landesberg appeared as a somewhat questionable priest brought in by Wojo before being added as Detective Dietrich. Ron Glass only appeared as Detective Harris on the show.
3. Who avoided a paternity suit because he found out he was sterile?

Answer: Wojciehowicz

Initially Wojo didn't even remember who the plaintiff was that had accused him of being the father of her child. He even asked Barney if he knew. He later remembered how he had met her. A trip to the urologist confirmed it was impossible for him to be the child's father.
4. Who unknowingly supplies the squad with homemade brownies laced with hashish?

Answer: Wojciehowicz

Wojo's girlfriend at the time made the brownies and added the special herb without his knowledge. Several of the squad members sampled the brownies which made for, in my opinion, one of the funniest TV episodes ever.
5. Which of the squad is a member of the Trilateral Commission?

Answer: Dietrich

If you are very familiar with Dietrich at all, this should not be very much of a surprise. Jeffrey Tambor appears as a conspiracy theorist who caused some damage in the Trilateral Commission's offices as he attempts to get them to admit to the underhanded activities he suspects them of.

As he is leaving, he surmises to Dietrich that he probably thinks he's just another crackpot. Dietrich assures him that is not the case, that he believes he has some valid criticisms of the commission and he will bring those points up at the next meeting.

This horrifies the man as he realizes that he has been in the company of one of "them" all the while.
6. Unable to find an apartment, who has to stay in Dietrich's apartment for a while?

Answer: Harris

Harris very reluctantly accepts Dietrich's offer to stay in his extra bedroom until he can find his own place. It must have been difficult for Harris as he somehow manages to "tolerate" Dietrich in the squad room, let alone being in the same apartment with him.
7. What are the names of Barney's children?

Answer: Rachel and David

Rachel and David do appear on the show but in very few episodes. One particularly amusing scene is when Rachel shows up at the squad room to get Barney to join her and Mrs. Miller for lunch. Levitt, not realizing who she is, asks Barney if she is a hooker.
8. Barney and his wife Elizabeth have some marital problems and separate for a while. At which hotel did Barney stay during this time?

Answer: Greenwich

When Barney and his wife reconcile he calls the hotel and inquires about the refund for his unused rent since he is moving out before the end of the month, having paid for the entire month in advance. Barney is quite upset when he is informed that this against the hotel's policy.

He states that he should have known not to check into a hotel that had been busted 25 times for prostitution. Then, in answer to the hotel's reply, he shouts "never mind how I know!"
9. Fish, Harris, Dietrich and Levitt are all assigned mugging detail at various times during the show, dressing as women in an attempt to attract muggers. But Barney stops one of them from going out that way. Which?

Answer: Dietrich

Dietrich was not exactly attractive as a woman and Barney decided to cancel his mugging detail.
10. Where was Detective Yemana born?

Answer: Omaha

In one episode, Dietrich asks Yemana if he ever longs to return to his homeland- the terraced hillsides, the cherry trees, the land of his ancestors. Yemana states he was born in Omaha. Dietrich replies, "we got a place in Nebraska that sounds just like that".
