Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. You have four suspects: Matthew, James, Thomas, and Andrew. You must figure out who has painted all the trains in town different colors of blue!
To begin, which of these is not a shade of blue?
2. You decide to ask the four suspects where they were Thursday, when it was found that the trains were painted blue. You begin with Matthew, and all he tells you is this: "I was on vacation in Jamaica, drinking the local beer there. I couldn't have done anything since I was out of the country!"
Which of these is a Jamaican beer?
3. When you ask James where he was on the day the trains were painted, he only says, "I have problems, and I was speaking to Rev. Karev to help."
On which television show does a character named Alex Karev appear?
4. Next you question Thomas. You ask where he was, and he tells you, "I was at the county fair. I had a big station set up, and everybody was lined up, I was rich!"
Tim McGraw spent $48 at a county fair in which of his songs?
5. Finally you speak to Andrew. He tells you that he was earning a merit badge on the day the trains were painted. You wonder if maybe Andrew was earning a painting merit badge, but quickly dismiss the idea.
Which of these is associated with "merit badges"?
6. At the police station, you receive an odd letter which is riddled with clues. The first thing you notice is the incorrect date on the top. It is dated January 10, 1945. This obviously cannot be correct. It must be a clue to help you get the guilty suspect!
Which of these famous singers was born on this day?
7. The message itself has you puzzled. The first half of the note reads: "You will rue the day you catch me. Do you hear me? RUE it!"
Which of these definitions does "rue" mean in this context?
8. The note continues on: "Now, if you will excuse me, I am going to go smell the flowers. I haven't seen any bluebells, snapdragons, chrysanthemums, or carnations in a while." 'That was a weird way to end a note', you think.
Which of the four flowers' genus names is Greek for "like a nose"?
9. The last part of the letter really has you stumped. It is signed "Ringo Starr". Obviously, there is no way it was really signed by Ringo, so you figure it must be another clue. You don't see how, but it is a clue. It has to be.
You know Ringo Starr was one of the Fab Four, but tell me which band he was in before he joined the Beatles.
10. Suddenly, it hits you. The clues have finally come together, and you know who painted the trains blue. Based on the clues you have gathered, who do you think has been painting all the trains blue?
