Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What were the names of Vanessa's three friends?

Answer: Janet, Cara, Susan

These were the same three friends that got Vanessa in trouble before when they got her to play a drinking game.

2. Where was the concert that Vanessa and her three friends wanted to go to being held?

Answer: Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore, Maryland, is about a 3 to 4 hour drive from Brooklyn, New York, where the show is set.

3. Where did the girls tell Clair they were going to be staying before and after the concert?

Answer: At Susan's house

The girls told Clair that they would stay at Susan's house until the concert, then they would go to concert, come back to Susan's house, sleep, and come home the next afternoon. They deliberately omitted the fact that Susan's parents were out of town for the weekend and that the concert was two states away.

4. The girls got as far as Wilmington, Delaware, where they stopped at a doughnut shop. They hadn't been there two minutes before their car got stolen. Who did the car actually belong to?

Answer: Cara's brother

Cara's brother had left the car at home when he went off to college. He left the keys with her with instructions to crank it now and then to keep it in working order. But Cara said she just didn't tell her brother what she did with the car once she started it up. Vanessa talked her out of reporting that the car had been stolen because the cops would've called their parents.

5. What was Janet's job in the group that night?

Answer: treasurer

Janet was the group member that was elected to carry all the money for the group, which was foolish. The safest thing would've been for several people in the group to carry some of the money in several different places on their person. It's one of the best precautions you can take against pickpockets.

6. Back in Brooklyn, what happens a block away from Susan's house that begins to reveal the girls' scheme to their parents?

Answer: A fire breaks out at a paint factory and people have to evacuate the area.

A big industrial fire broke out at a paint factory a block away from Susan's house and her neighborhood had to be evacuated because of all the toxic fumes from the burning paint.

7. Which one of Susan's family members did they interview on the news?

Answer: Susan's grandmother

Out of all the people that the news crew could have interviewed, they picked Susan's grandmother. In the interview, she revealed, to all the parents watching, that the house was empty because Susan's parents were out of town for the weekend, and that her granddaughter, Susan, and her friends had never shown up.

8. Why weren't The Wretched playing in New York?

Answer: they weren't allowed to

When Denise hears that Vanessa went to see The Wretched she reveals that the band is not allowed to play in New York because the last time they did they caused so much trouble that no one would book them again.

9. How did the Huxtables find out that the Wretched concert was in Baltimore that night?

Answer: They saw the band's lead singer on the news

The very next thing that the Huxtables saw on the tv news, after learning no one was hurt in the fire, was the band's lead singer. He was thanking the citizens of Baltimore for letting the band play there that night.

10. While the girls were standing in line outside the concert venue in Baltimore waiting to go inside, they met a young guy who was wearing a dark colored t-shirt with what word on it?

Answer: security

This smooth-talker was not with the band like he said. The girls learned this the hard way.
