Whitley was surprised to discover her recently divorced father already had a new love, which he brought along for their vacation.

2. Which of these people told Denise about Whitley's parents breaking up?

Answer: Millie

Millie was Whitley's closest (if not only) friend in season one. The actress that portrayed her, Marie-Alise Recasner, spent some time in soap operas as well. Among the shows she starred in were "Santa Barbara", "Days of Our Lives", "General Hospital", and "Port Charles". On the latter two she played the same character, Ellen Burgess. Millie broke the news as the ladies decorated Gilbert Hall for Christmas.

3. There's a soda machine seen in Gilbert Hall's common room.

Answer: True

The machine was simply labeled "Cold Drinks" and can be seen often in season one.

4. Where did Whitley say she and her father were spending their Christmas vacation together?

Answer: Switzerland

She happily reported that she and her father would be skiing in St. Moritz over the Christmas holiday. You can learn more about St. Moritz at(http://www.stmoritz.ch/).

5. Dwayne came into Gilbert Hall dangling a mistletoe over his head.

Answer: True

When no one would kiss him, he called the girls in the room "Grinches of love".

6. This episode had the sub-plot of 'Secret Santa'. Who was Jaleesa's Secret Santa?

Answer: Maggie

Maggie originally picked Millie's name, but she switched it and got Jaleesa instead. She proceeded to give Jaleesa gifts she did not like.

7. What was given to Denise for her first Secret Santa gift?

Answer: Breakfast in bed

Denise got her laundry washed as her second gift from Dwayne. He had Ron deliver her gifts to her, so it was a dead give away. She guessed it easily. Two choices were Maggie's gifts to Jaleesa. Jaleesa hated them both and called the plant holder "ugly, coyote ugly!"

8. Whitley met her future step-mother in this episode, for the first time. What was her name?

Answer: Monica

Monica Walters was only a few years older than Whitley herself, and a Paralegal Assistant.

9. Who was Maggie's Secret Santa?

Answer: Jaleesa

Jaleesa gave Maggie typing paper with a ribbon around it for her first gift, because Maggie was always taking hers. Lettie Bostic (played by Mary Alice) was not a character on the show until the middle of season one.

10. What time was Whitley meeting her father and his date at the inn?

Answer: "7 o'clock sharp"

Whitley was meeting Daddy and Monica at "7 o'clock sharp", but was none too happy to be spending time with the 'new woman'.

11. While several characters were in The Pit eating, did Jaleesa refer to Whitley's father as an "old rooster"?

Answer: Yes

She was talking to Denise and Dwayne about Mercer's intentions with his new, much younger, lover. Denise commented that her own grandparents had been married for 50 years.

12. When Denise walked into Whitley's room she caught her eating fruit cake. What did she go to Whitley's room to borrow in the first place?

Answer: gift ribbon

While in there with Whitley, Denise told her that she thought it was harsh of her father to spring Monica on Whitley. She comforted Whitley for a while as well.

13. Whitley admitted to Denise she had NO desire to go skiing with her daddy's new girlfriend. What did she say she WOULD like to do to her instead?

Answer: Send her down a tall glacier in a dingy

At first she acted like skiing with Monica was no big deal, but Denise knew better.

14. Who was Denise's Secret Santa?

Answer: True

Dwayne was dangling mistletoe over his head again, and after a bit of a hesitation she kissed him square on the mouth!
