1. How many members of the National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society were there in the first book, "National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society"?

From Quiz
N.E.R.D.S. by Michael Buckley

Answer: 9

There was the director (Agent Alexander Brand), the librarian (Agent Lisa Holiday/Ms.Holiday), the pilot for the School Bus (the lunch lady), and the six agents; Ruby "Pufferfish" Peet, Matilda "Wheezer" Choi, Heathcliff "Choppers" Hodges (the bad guy), Duncan "Glustick" Dewey, Julio "Flinch" Escala, and Jackson "Braceface" Jones (the newest member of the team). At one point there were only eight because Jackson wasn't a member, seven because neither Jackson nor Brand were members, eight again because Heathcliff left, seven again because Heathcliff and Brand were gone, eight AGAIN because Heathcliff was there but Brand wasn't, nine because everyone was there, and the number went down one by one as Miss Information made the agents disappear one by one. *gasping* (Need.
