Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Adam and Brooke started off the year 1989 as husband and wife. What marital issue did they face?

Answer: Brooke could not conceive a child

Adam badly wanted to have a male heir to the Chandler fortune. However, Brooke was infertile so she could not bear him a child. This led him to get involved with Dixie.

2. Adam hired Dixie to work at Chandler Mansion, which is where he and Brooke resided. What job did Dixie have at the estate?

Answer: Servant

Adam lusted for the young ingenue Dixie Cooney and hired her to be a servant at Chandler Mansion. Little did she know that he had plans to impregnate her!

3. Where did Adam and Dixie have their one night stand that resulted in Dixie becoming pregnant with their son, JR?

Answer: Boathouse

Adam and Dixie gave into temptation one night while at the boathouse. Dixie notified Adam shortly thereafter that she was pregnant. Of course Adam was thrilled since now he had a child to inherit his extravagant wealth.

4. While she worked at Chandler Mansion, Dixie also befriended and eventually fell in love with her soulmate, Tad. Where did the two initially meet?

Answer: Boutique

In a popular scene, the romantic Tad the Cad was at the Boutique when he bumped into Dixie. His line to her was "Heaven help me. I have just forgotten every other woman I have ever known". They started out as friends and eventually became a highly popular "All My Children" supercouple.

5. What horrible misdeed did Adam pull on Dixie for a couple of months in 1989?

Answer: He gaslit her

Adam was ruthless in wanting JR solely to himself and did not care to love Dixie despite being married to her. To gain custody of JR, he gaslit Dixie and drove her crazy. Eventually, his scheme backfired and Dixie was awarded custody of JR.

6. Brooke found out about Adam and Dixie's one-night stand. When she did, she told Dixie she could still stay at Chandler Mansion.

Answer: False

Brooke was furious and gave Adam a wallop to his face for betraying her. Despite how Dixie pleaded with Brooke to give her another chance, Brooke was just as livid with her, too. She told Dixie to pack her bags and leave Chandler Mansion.

7. Dixie spent time at a mental hospital in 1989. What was the name of it?

Answer: Laurel Hills

Tad was close to Dixie and worried when she was committed. They shared a tearful goodbye before she was dragged away by the men in white coats. While she was there, Dixie realized that the mental health approach was bizarre.

8. What was one privilege that Dixie's psychiatrist prohibited her to do at the hospital?

Answer: She was not allowed to call loved ones, like Tad

Dixie found it awkward that her psychiatrist did not allow her to have privileges other patients did, such as being unable to call her family. She confronted him about this but he insisted she could not have any outside interference as it would impede her care. In reality, Adam paid off the psychiatrist to keep her indefinitely locked up so he could have custody of JR.

9. Which two people helped Tad rescue Dixie and break her out of the psychiatric institute?

Answer: Nico Kelly and Cecily Davidson

Tad knew something was fishy about Dixie's stay at Laurel Hills so he, Nico, Cecily, and Stan went to get Dixie out of Laurel Hills. They were successful and eventually Dixie's commitment was lifted so she no longer had to be a patient there.

10. Adam and Brooke divorced in the year 1989.

Answer: Yes

Due to Adam's infidelity and pathological lying, Brooke found what he did to be unforgivable. She filed for divorce and it was granted. Shortly after the divorce, Adam and Dixie walked down the aisle. At the very end of 1989, Dixie got her wish when Adam granted her a divorce from their contentious union. She closed out the year by marrying her soulmate, Tad Martin.
