81 What year was Paul's collection of short stories, "Nine Lives", published?
Answer: 1956

This stuck out to me because she coyly makes the point that Paul hasn't done anything--writingwise--in quite awhile. "Lately, since 1956?" The movie was released in 1961, so it was probably set in 1960, a long span for a writer to go without writing.

93 When Mrs. Failenson calls Paul to cancel their date because her husband has come home early, what name does she call Paul to help fool her husband who's standing nearby?

If you missed this one because you thought "Louise" sounded familiar, that's because it's Mrs. Failenson's own first name.

98 What number wife does Rusty Trawler marry (who is not Holly), as seen on the newspaper Paul finds outside Holly's apartment?
