3. Near the beginning of the movie, we discover that Tom works in a high-rise office building. What is his line of work?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: writing greeting cards

Near this time when we are first introduced to Tom, we are also are introduced to the layout of the office, most specifically the board room where staff members, like Tom, pitch their ideas for the cards, and also where the best submissions will eventually be turned into the cards for the company to sell.

4. What city does the movie take place in?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Los Angeles

According to Summer, Los Angeles is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. She moved there from the fictional Shinnecock, Michigan for a change of scenery, and Tom had moved there from Margate, New Jersey, probably with his family, as they live close by. He enjoys the architecture of the city and has a favorite spot to sit to look at it.

5. There is a new employee at the company, whose name is Summer. We find out that she has moved from what midwestern state to accept a position at the company?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Michigan

Early on in the movie, in a scene where employees are hanging out in the main office space, the gentleman who is in charge of the company takes the time to introduce Summer to her fellow office members. We learn shortly thereafter, in a conversation she has Tom, that she hails from Michigan and has just moved to her new location just recently.

6. What alternative rock band does Tom and Summer bond over?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: The Smiths

Tom is listening to a Smiths song in the elevator, and Summer hears it and comments positively on his taste in music. Tom takes this as the first sign, and tries to entice her by playing a song by them on his computer as she walks by in the office.

7. Which large store are Tom and Summer often seen running around in?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Ikea

They are routinely seen running through the store pretending to be a married couple and playing "house". However, at later moments in the relationship, it doesn't seem to be as much fun anymore.

8. Which movie does Tom think is a story about true love?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: The Graduate

It is because of this movie and his love of "sad British pop" music that he feels he will never be happy until he finds "the one".

9. Who is Summer's favorite Beatle?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Ringo Starr

She explains that she loves him basically because nobody else does. Often Tom would find one of Ringo's solo albums in a record store and show it to Summer to get a laugh out of her, but that soon wears down.

10. As we get well past the climax of the movie, we observe Tom sitting in a certain location, whereupon Summer notices him an walks over to make small talk with him and find out how he's doing. Where is this?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: a park bench

It is nice to see that by this point of the movie they are at least able to be friends, and they are able to speak at ease with each other. At first, it appears that Tom has moved on, both physically and emotionally, but he wavers just before she ends the conversation by trying to get her to hold his hand.

11. When Tom fights a guy at the bar for chatting up Summer, what does Summer do in response?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: She starts an argument with him at her apartment.

They walk back to her place while he holds an icepack on his lip, and then she tells him she doesn't need his help. Tom argues whether or not they are couple, speaks his peace, then leaves in a huff. Summer later goes over to his place, apologizes, and spends the night with him.

12. What is the very last thing that Tom says to Summer, after he has a conversation where they discuss her recent marriage, among other things?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: "Summer, I really do hope that you're happy."

Tom says this with a tone of great sincerity; it doesn't seem forced at all. He clearly wants what is best for her; it is a very unselfish approach on his part. She then walks towards the end of the park, where she will potentially forever be gone from his life. He is just left to his own thoughts.

13. On the day Summer ends the relationship, what are they eating?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Pancakes

After watching "The Graduate", they go out and have pancakes (per suggestion of Tom, possibly to try to cheer her up), but while they are waiting for them, she confesses she wants to end the relationship while still being friends, comparing the two of them to Sid Vicious and Nancy (with her being Sid) for the last few months. Shortly after being served their food, Tom gets up dejected and walks out on her.

14. In the beginning of the last scene, we see Tom walking into a building. What significant task does he need to perform here?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: job interview

He is attending a job interview on one of the upper floors of a high-rise building downtown. He is all decked out in his best suit and tie, slacks, and sleek black shoes. After he exits the escalator, and proceeds down the hallway to his left, he will meet a new acquaintance before he is asked to come into the interview room.

15. What ultimately happens to Tom at his job?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: He quits.

In an attempt to get Summer back, he boards a train to the wedding of a co-worker because he knows Summer is going. They get along very well at the wedding and reception, and even dance together. She then invites him to a party on the roof of her apartment complex, and Tom hopes their relationship can come back to life... until he sees the ring on her finger. He leaves in a huff, then falls into a depression that lasts for a few days. When he finally returns to work, he basically disses the entire greeting card industry in a meeting, and then quits.

16. As the movie winds down, Tom meets a new woman. In the last line of the movie, we hear her say, "Hello, my name is ___." What is her interesting name?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Autumn

Moments before his interviewer calls him in, he asks her out for coffee, and she is not sure what to say. When he turns to continue toward the room where his interview will be conducted, she calls him back and agrees to his offer. After he offers his name, he asks for hers, and she simply replies, "My name is Autumn." The movie concludes at this point.

17. On day 500, Tom meets a new girl. What is her name?

From Quiz (500) Days of Summer

Answer: Autumn

After quitting his job, he spends the next 20 or so days reapplying himself to architecture (which he trained for to begin with) while Summer prepares for and has her wedding with the guy she met six months earlier. On day 500, he goes in for an interview, ends up talking with the girl also going for the same job, and they decide to go out for coffee afterwards. She introduces herself as Autumn... and the day clock started at 1 again. Elaine is the main girl in "The Graduate". Alison is the girl Tom goes out on a date with sometime after he and Summer break up (which ends in disaster). There is no other girl named Summer in the movie.
