Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the first episode, Bree's prowess as a homemaker was described through a list of domestic chores and tasks that she was very skilled in performing. Which of the following was NOT of Bree's cited capabilities?

Answer: she had painted her entire home

As she was described at the beginning of the show, "Everyone on Wisteria Lane thought of her as the perfect wife and mother. Everyone that is...except her own family." Bree has come a long way since the first episode but she remains exceptionally gifted at almost all elements of domestic life.
2. Bree's love and patience was truly tested when it came to her son Andrew. While Andrew has turned his life around and became a responsible adult, this definitely wasn't always the case when his parents separated and his father died. Which of the following was NOT one of the horrible things he did to his mother during his tumultuous teenage years?

Answer: stole and sold her antiques and jewelry

Andrew did many horrible things to his mother but the worst was when she found him in bed with Peter, her AA sponsor and growing love interest. He was a sex addict and Andrew abused that information to hurt his mother. After that, Bree didn't want to compromise her sobriety or her sanity and she decided to abandon Andrew at a gas station in order to save herself.
3. During Rex's funeral Bree realized that Rex's mother, Phyllis, had changed his tie from the sensible Ralph Lauren one Bree had selected to his garish orange and green prep school tie. Bree refused to allow them to close the coffin until she replaced his tie. Which fellow mourner's tie did she demand and then place on her dead husband's body?

Answer: Tom Scavo

When Bree approached Tom and asked for his tie he didn't know what to do or say, but Lynette saw the intensity in Bree's eyes and quickly said, "Give it to her! Give it to her!" While changing his tie was strange enough, she even lifted his body out from the coffin to place it correctly.

However, like most things in her life, Bree breathed a sign of relief when the tie was in place and he was 'perfect.'
4. When she tried to provide Rex with the sexual lifestyle he needed, they discussed using a 'control word,' which needed to be a benign word that signified when either of them wanted to terminate their sexual role play. Which of the following was NOT one of the suggested safe words?

Answer: Paris

Rex kept this part of his life very private until Bree finally confronted him and demanded that he be honest with her so that she could prove how much she loved him. While she reacted poorly upon first finding out what he was interested in, she eventually decided to give it a chance.

This conversation was quite amusing, as Bree didn't fully understand the effect a 'control word' was supposed to have. When Rex told her that Boise didn't sound serious enough, she suggested Palestine, which was far too serious, so they decided to stay with Boise (especially since Bree had an aunt in Philadelphia and didn't want to link the two together).
5. While dining with Zach Young, Bree told him of how her mother had also died when she was very young. Her mother was struck by a car during a Christmas party and was rushed to the emergency room but died soon after. Bree had to stay home because she was so young. What did she do while her family was gone to the hospital?

Answer: washed her mother's blood off of the street

This was one of Bree's most revealing stories since it is heavily involved in the way she lived her life. Her compulsive need for perfection, order, and cleanliness was inextricably linked to her feelings of happiness, calmness, and control. Bree told him that after she washed her mother's blood from the street, she just 'felt so much better because it was clean.'
6. When Orson asked Bree what her 'porn name' would be, he asked her to put the name of her favorite childhood pet and match it with the street she grew up on. However, Bree had several pets when she was a child. Which of the following was NOT one of Bree's possible 'porn names'?

Answer: Honey Montauk

Orson found out that Bree had given Andrew a raise in his salary and he wanted to know just how much money Andrew was making in comparison to himself. The bank would not give him the financial data without Bree's password, which was described as being 'the name of her childhood pet.' In order to get the information without looking suspicious, Orson used the 'porn name game' to glean the information he required.

As Bree had three pets and moved around as a child, Orson's answer was more complicated than he had hoped. (FYI: Orson's name was 'Thunder McFaddon')
7. After Rex and George were dead, Bree started to drink more heavily and refused to acknowledge that she had a problem with alcohol. Which of the following was NOT something Bree did before realizing she truly was an alcoholic?

Answer: passed out at the wheel of her car and knocked down a stop sign

Bree's desperate need to keep up appearances and maintain a 'perfect' existence caused her to crash into alcoholism when practically everything she depended on was destroyed all around her. She refused to acknowledge she had a problem until Lynette and Andrew turned against her for different reasons.
8. Bree's daughter, Danielle, has repeatedly revealed herself to be unintelligent, selfish, dramatic, and childish. While Andrew was an evil child, Danielle posed an entirely different set of complicated problems for Bree to have to deal with. Which of the following was NOT one of the foolish acts of Danielle Van De Kamp?

Answer: pretended to have an eating disorder until Bree was brought in by the school therapist

Danielle only truly cared about herself for the majority of her teen years and she lashed out at people in very childish ways when she felt angry or wronged. While it had been best for someone other than her to raise her son while she was a teenager, her retrieval of him years later devastated Bree, but it also became her inspiration and motivation to write and publish the cookbook.
9. George Williams, Bree's psychotic pharmacist, was obsessed with having a relationship full of intimate moments and idyllic scenarios. When that failed to work because most of it defied logic, George took to acting out and compulsively trying to maintain some sort of relationship with Bree. Which of the following was NOT one of the weird ways George showed his obsessive love for Bree?

Answer: planted drugs in Andrew's room to get him sent away

These strange acts are just the tip of the iceberg with George: he poisoned and killed her husband, he stalked her whereabouts and then 'ran into her,' he drugged her so that he could sleep with her, he watched security videos from the pharmacy of when she visited the store, and he repeatedly revealed his true colors as an obsessive, jealous, and unstable man.
10. Bree published a cookbook in the show's fourth season and it has been a source of joy and much turmoil on Wisteria Lane. What is the name of Bree's first cookbook?

Answer: Mrs. Van De Kamp's Old Fashioned Cooking

Orson had a problem with this title because Bree had decided to bill herself as "Mrs. Van De Kamp" rather than "Mrs. Hodge," which he felt was an affront to him and their marriage. Bree tried to mend fences about his displeasure, but she eventually just told him that it was too late to change it and that he was just going to have to live with it. Again, this did not sit well with Orson and it began a long string of problems in their marriage.
11. After Bree became a success with her cookbook and catering, Orson started to feel unappreciated and depressed. He decided that he needed to regain something that he could control and he decided that it gave him a thrill to steal small items from his neighbors and those he felt had been rude to him. Which of the following was NOT one of the items Bree caught him in possession of?

Answer: Lynette Scavo's first edition Yates poetry book

Orson stole many things and those listed are only a few of the key items. It was Tom's pepper shaker that he stole second (after stealing Andrew's 'Mont Blanc' pen), but it was the first item Bree caught him holding onto. Bree mistakenly returned Karen's figurine to Gabby's house, thinking that it was hers, and was almost caught but she instead allowed Gabby to blame it on her daughter, Juanita. Bree had thought it was Gabby's because it was Mexican in nature, but Gabby made sure to mention that she hated the figurine and kept telling Mrs. McCluskey that it was extremely racist. Finally, it was Bob and Lee's coffee mug theft that made Bree realize that Orson was not going to stop stealing as she had made him promise, but instead that she may have a much bigger problem on her hands.
12. Bree has always been a fabulous homemaker and whenever an event occurred or a new neighbor moved in she always baked them a batch of homemade muffins and delivered them in a cloth-lined basket. What stipulation does Bree always make upon delivering her muffins to the neighbors?

Answer: that she is going to need the basket back

Whenever the housewives reminisce over the first time they had met Bree, each of them commented on the fact that she gave them muffins and said she wanted the basket back. This remains a sort of running joke throughout the show and it began on the first episode when she delivered food items to Zach and Paul Young at Mary Alice's funeral/wake.

She refused to hand the baskets to them until she had explained their contents and expressed her concern that they eat a proper meal Then, after a pause, Bree commented that "I'll be needing those baskets back when you are done though."
13. Throughout the show's first five seasons, Bree has shot and killed at least one person.

Answer: False

Bree has said many times that she is an experienced shooter and card carrying member of the National Rifle Association. Bree was seen shooting a gun several times, but she has never shot anyone, let alone killed them. She has had a gun pointed at her by Wayne Davis, Katherine's abusive ex-husband, and Matthew Applewhite, who threatened to kill her so that he and Danielle could run away together. Wayne Davis was shot and killed by Katherine and Matthew Applewhite was shot and killed by police snipers after he began to point his gun at Bree.
14. After Katherine read Bree's cookbook, Katherine confronted her over the fact that some of the recipes were hers and that Bree could not even execute some of the recipes she took credit for. Bree shrugged off this accusation but was put to the test when Katherine concocted a plan to force Bree to execute one specific recipe while a local news anchor was interviewing her. What process was Bree unable to properly execute on camera?

Answer: creating spun sugar netting for a croquenbouche cake

Katherine pointed out that she had never seen Bree work with molten sugar and that Katherine always executed that dessert. When the news crew arrived, Katherine faked a wrist injury and requested that Bree complete the task. Bree had some difficulty with clumping as she tried to spin the sugar, but it was when she placed the netting on the cake that the real problem was revealed.

The sugar was stuck to her shirt, jewelry, and hands, and she ended up having to bite it off and tie it in an unappealing bow.
15. Which of the following facts about Bree Van De Kamp-Hodge is NOT true?

Answer: she has always been a devout Catholic

Marcia Cross was absent from several episodes in the show's third season due to her pregnancy; humorously enough, when she returned after giving birth, her character was faking a pregnancy. Even though she told others that Benjamin was her own son it was eventually revealed to everyone that Bree was truly a new grandmother. Both Bree and Orson were accused of killing their spouses (Rex and Alma) even though neither of them had. And finally, Bree has stated many times that she is Presbyterian and very committed to the church.
