Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the full name of this episode?

Answer: Raging Abe Simpson and His Grumbling Grandson in "The Curse of the Flying Hellfish"

This is one of the longest names of any episode of "The Simpsons". Some other long ones include "Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish" from season 2, "$pringfield, (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)" from season 5, "El Viaje de Nuestro Jomer (The Mysterious Voyage of Homer)" from season 8 and "Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens, and Gays" from season 15.
2. It is Grandparents' Day at Springfield Elementary. In whose classroom does the main scene take place?

Answer: Mrs. Krabappel's

Milhouse's paternal grandfather has visited, Nelson's grandfather who is a judge is there, and so is Abe Simpson, Bart's grandfather. They each give a talk about things in their life.
3. Gramps recieves a letter saying who has died?

Answer: Asa Phelps

With Asa gone, it means that Grampa and Mr. Burns are the last two remaining members of their World War II tontine.
4. Who, other than Grampa and Reverend Lovejoy, is the only person present at the funeral (this man is also the only other surviving Hellfish member)?

Answer: Mr. Burns

After the funeral, Mr. Burns and Abe both take out a key which unlocks a safe on the statue of a Hellfish. The paper is taken out and Asa Phelps' name is crossed off the list, leaving only Burns and Grampa.
5. Why does Burns want to kill Abe?

Answer: So that Burns can claim the tontine's fortune

He tries to hire an assassin, Fernando Vidal. The first attempt to poison Abe fails, as Abe throws the poisoned denture water away and sticks his alarm clock in his mouth. The second attempt is by visiting Abe, with Vidal dressed as Homer and Burns dressed as Marge.
6. Who was not a member of the tontine?

Answer: Ed Flanders

The nine members were all Abe's troops from WWII: Sheldon Skinner (Principal Skinner's father), Iggy Wiggum (Chief Wiggum's father), Arnie Gumble (Barney's father), Asa Phelps, Milton 'Ox' Haas, Etch Westgrin, Griff McDonald, Montgomery Burns and of course Abe Simpson was a member of the tontine.
7. What items are in the tontine's fortune?

Answer: Paintings

The group invaded an abandoned German castle and found the paintings. Burns suggested that they enter into a tontine to reclaim the paintings years later.
8. Who goes with Grampa to search for the tontine's fortune?

Answer: Bart

Homer sees the two of them leaving and wants to go with them, until Grampa says he can only come if he's "ready to stare danger in the face" and put his "manhood to the ultimate test". Homer is not up for this much effort, and continues eating as he walks through the hallway.
9. Who owns the boat that Grampa uses to get to the treasure in the water?

Answer: Flanders

Grampa forces Flanders and his family to leave the houseboat in the middle of the night so that he and Bart can get the treasure.
10. Who eventually gets to keep the treasure?

Answer: A German Baron

Grampa dismisses Burns from the Hellfish for trying to kill his commanding officer, and therefore claims that he (Grampa) should keep the paintings. But the American State Department steps in and says that to avoid an international incident they are going to return the stolen art to its rightful owner, a German driving a Mercedes Benz.
