Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The team's client, Ruth, ran a non-profit organization and had been receiving extremely generous donations from the deceased businessman, Bennett Kimball. Mr. Kimball told Ruth that he wanted to leave his entire estate to her organization, but after his death his corrupt lawyer, Peter Blanchard, refused to acknowledge any such promise and/or will. What kind of work did Ruth's organization do?

Answer: moved foster children into adoption homes

It was later revealed that her career was due to the fact that she was adopted at a young age and truly wanted to help these children to find good homes, as she had. She said that Mr. Kimball had drafted a new will, but because she did not have a executed copy of it she couldn't win her upcoming hearing against Peter Blanchard in probate court. Unfortunately Ruth's attorney, Tara Carlisle, insisted that she be involved in every step of the team's con and she also insisted that all of their actions be legal.
2. At the beginning of the episode Parker suggested that they contact Sophie again to see if she would come back and work with them; Nate told them that they couldn't keep calling Sophie. However, Hardison revealed that Nate had made a secret trip to visit Sophie and was able to prove it through a series of security and CCTV camera footage. Where had Nate gone to visit Sophie?

Answer: London

Hardison's "Where's Waldo?" retelling of Nate's recent whereabouts yielded the camera footage of Nate next to Big Ben, as well as evidence that Nate's passport had been dinged at Heathrow Airport, which is also in London. Nate then notified the crew that Sophie would not be returning in the near future and that he was unsure whether she would be returning at all.
3. An important component of Ruth's last discussion with Kimball was that he was no longer lucid and was referring to Ruth by a different name when he saw her. Who did he mistake her for when she visited him just before his death?

Answer: Gigi

It was later revealed that Gigi was a nickname for Georgia Gilbert, a former stripper that Kimball was in love with; Blanchard had sent her away to Las Vegas when he found out that Kimball intended on marrying her. Nate was caught completely off guard in the meeting with Blanchard when he realized that George Gilbert was in fact Georgia Gilbert and he came up with the "lost heir" con so that he could try and get Blanchard on the hook with something they could potentially use against him. Nate produced Parker as Kimball's "lost heir" and she was supposedly a thieving meth fiend with poor social skills.

As hilarious as it was, Blanchard didn't go for it right away, but Nate knew that he could work some magic and get him to believe the story eventually.
4. Nate's character was a smarmy suspended Las Vegas attorney representing the "lost heir" to Bennett Kimball's estate. What was his Greek lawyer character's last name?

Answer: Papadokalis

Jimmy Papadokalis was his name and the pronunciation of it proved to be incredibly tricky for Peter Blanchard and quite humorous for viewers. The more flustered Blanchard became, the more he butchered the pronunciation of the name, which prompted Nate to repeatedly recite his name, and ended in Blanchard having an huge frustrated outburst.
5. While the eventual goal was to convince Peter Blanchard that Parker was Bennett Kimball's "lost heir," the team's first plan was to find a skeleton from Kimball's past that was so scandalous that the mere mention of it would cause Blanchard to make a huge pay-out just to keep it quiet. The team discovered that Kimball's business partner, Mr. Orson, had paid $50,000 in 1980, to a holding company in Las Vegas. What was the name of that holding company?

Answer: Lamont

They were originally given information that the payment was made through Lamont Holdings to George Gilbert, but when Hardison failed to find any information on such a person he discovered that the payment was actually made to Georgia Gilbert. or Gigi.

The name of the holding company was mentioned in Tara Carlisle's conversations with Mr. Orson in prison, as well as when Hardison and Eliot confronted Mr. Orson inside the prison.
6. Mr. Orson was being held in minimum security prison, but before the team could put some pressure on him from the inside, Ms. Carlisle decided that they should just talk to him and ask him for the information they were seeking. This plan failed miserably, so Hardison and Eliot went undercover as prison guards to put some pressure on him; they planted evidence to make it look like Orson was the leader of what prison gang?

Answer: Aryan Nations

When Hardison and Eliot arrived said they had transferred from the maximum security prison in Salem where Hardison had allegedly been brutalized and threatened by several different gang members. While Eliot planted a shiv on Orson and then had him searched by another officer, they also planted a swastika band on his bunk. This resulted in Orson being reported to the warden and he risked being sent to maximum security prison, so they confronted him about Lamont Holdings and he spilled his guts.
7. In order to avoid a pay-out to Kimball's supposed "lost heir," Blanchard instructed the dirty cop that worked for him to arrange a meeting with Nate and Parker and get rid of them. Just as the cop was about to shoot them, Eliot struck him in the head with a rock and was able to disarm him. However, the gunman did end up getting shot; who shot the gunman?

Answer: Blanchard

When the cop ran back to tell Blanchard what had happened, Blanchard did not even hesitate in shooting the cop in leg; he told the other dirty cops to call in the shooting, frame Parker as the gunman, and make sure that the police did not let her enter the courthouse.

This sent Eliot and Parker into a foot race with police and while Eliot said that he would not fight cops, Parker tasered one officer when he came up behind them. Also, the shooting of the police officer proved beneficial to the team, as they later had Parker steal Blanchard's secret files (containing his illegal actions and gave them to the shot officer for revenge against Blanchard.
8. Nate needed Hardison to be creative and keep Peter Blanchard from entering the courtroom because he was still a ways away and needed time to catch up. Hardison had very limited time to come up with a plan but he realized that the best way to detain him was to use the metal detector security system. What did he plant on Blanchard so that he would be held up by security?

Answer: multiple keys and an aluminum foil gun

Hardison removed all of the keys on his key ring and bumped into Blanchard as he entered the courtroom, allowing him to get up close and personal to plant keys in several different pockets. Hardison was also able to get some aluminum foil from a teenager eating his lunch, which he fashioned into a crude model of a gun and planted in Blanchard's suitcase after he bumped into him.
9. Once Nate arrived at the courtroom he notified the judge that he represented Mr. Kimball's "lost heir" and began asking Ruth questions while she was on the stand. While they had tried to convince Blanchard that Parker was his "lost heir," Nate revealed that Ruth was, in fact, his real long lost daughter. What genetic characteristic did Ruth, Georgia, and Bennett Kimball all have in common?

Answer: colorblindness

While the viewer was briefly made aware that Georgia Gilbert was colorblind, it was only revealed during the hearing that Ruth and Bennett were also colorblind. A flashback revealed that Nate had realized Ruth's colorblindness on their first meeting after she referred to yellow iris flowers as being blue irises.

This evidence was very compelling and it gave Ruth the opportunity to know that Bennett hadn't found her charity through random selection, that he had searched for her and that he had called her "Gigi" because she looked just like her mother.
10. After they realized that Tara Carlisle had told Ruth she was working with the team and was not, as she had previously said, an ACLU pro-bono lawyer, the team fled to Nate's apartment and found her there with a letter from Sophie. Did Nate allow her to join the team in Sophie's absence?

Answer: Yes

Hardison described Tara Carlisle as a "sexy librarian," when she posed as Ruth's attorney, but she was dressed like a sexy thief when they found her waiting in Nate's apartment. Tara Carlisle was, in fact, Tara Cole, a friend of Sophie's who had been sent there as a possible replacement to help the team. Even though they did not get off on the right foot, Nate welcomed her to the team. Jeri Ryan will be appearing on all six following winter episodes of the show as a replacement for Gina Bellman who is currently pregnant.
