Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the television series "Once Upon A Time", the Evil Queen/Regina has a vault of jewelry boxes each containing a single item. What is she stockpiling?

Answer: hearts

In this fantasy mash-up of many fairy tale stories, a person's heart can be removed from their chest and they can continue to live. Having a person's heart in her possession means that the Evil Queen/Regina (played by Lana Parrilla) can control them. Or, as seen in several episodes, when the heart is destroyed the person dies.
2. During a scene in the opera "Don Carlos", Elisabeth is accused of infidelity when her husband, King Philip, opens her jewelry box to find a picture of his son. Who composed this opera?

Answer: Giuseppe Verdi

At the beginning of the opera Elisabeth and Carlos fall in love, only to find that she is betrothed to his father. As the story unfolds, we discover that Princess Eboli, also in love with Carlos, stole Elisabeth's jewelry box.

"Don Carlos" premiered in 1867 in French, and was then translated into Italian. Today both versions are performed in opera houses around the world.
3. When the character Claire (Michelle Pfieffer) becomes convinced that she's being haunted, she allows the spirit to enter her body several times. During one of these episodes, she jumps into the lake and finds a jewelry box at the bottom. In which of these movies did the jewelry box provide a clue?

Answer: What Lies Beneath

Warning: spolier alert! The movie stars Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford as wife Claire and husband Norman. The jewelry box contained a necklace which belonged to a student that Norman was having an affair with before he murdered her. In the end, the vehicle Norman is in swerves into the lake, and murdered girl drowns Norman.
4. In 2012, which of these toy companies launched a product line called Friends, which now includes a Buildable Jewelry Box?

Answer: Lego

The Lego Friends product line centers on five characters from Heartlake City: Olivia, Stephanie, Emma, Mia, and Andrea. The original products included Emma's Splash Pool (43 pieces), Stephanie's Cool Convertible (130 pieces), and others. Additional toy sets have been added such as the Buildable Jewelry Box (201 pieces).
5. In the video game "______: Stay Tuned for Danger", which eighteen year-old girl detective finds a torn note in a jewelry box when she tries to solve the mystery of who is sending death threats to soap opera star Rick Arlen?

Answer: Nancy Drew

During the game the player has to solve the mystery as Nancy's character, eventually finding that all of the other characters appear to have motive.

This game was officially discontinued in 2011. Her Interactive is the video game company that created this and many other "Nancy Drew" games.
6. Which Korean girl group released "Jewelry Box" in 2012?

Answer: T-ara

The release of the album was coupled with a Japanese tour of the same name. The group's first album, "Absolute First Album" was released in Korea in 2009.

The group was formed and trained by Mnet Media for three years prior to their first debut. The name, based on "tiara" was chosen because the goal was for the group to become "queens of the music industry".
7. In the play "The Merchant of Venice" Portia's suitors must choose a jeweled box, either in gold, silver or lead. Who wrote this classic story?

Answer: William Shakespeare

As decreed in her father's will, only the suitor who selects the correct box will win Portia's hand in marriage. The three jeweled boxes each have an inscription on the outside to help (or confuse?) the suitor in making his choice.

The gold box says "Who chooseth me shall gain what many men desire", and actually fools one of the suitors into making this his choice. The silver box is also selected by a suitor who misinterprets the inscription "Who chooseth me shall get as much as he deserves". As we learn, the lead box inscribed with "Who chooseth me must give and hazard all he hath", actually wins the lady.
8. Amy Pond travels through space and time on the TARDIS and in the episode "The Lodger", finds a jewelry box with her engagement ring from her husband-to-be in her companion's coat pocket. Who is her companion?

Answer: Doctor Who

This episode is part of "Doctor Who" starring Matt Smith as the eleventh Doctor. Amy Pond, played by Karen Gillan, was the Doctor's companion from 2010 to 2012. Amy first meets the Doctor as a child of seven, and begins traveling with him on the eve of her wedding at age twenty one.
9. After school let out for the summer, Jem and Scout found a small jewelry box wrapped in tinfoil in the knot of the Radley's tree. In which of these novels would you find these characters?

Answer: To Kill a Mockingbird

"To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee was first published in 1960, and won the 1961 Pulitzer Price for fiction.

In the story, this is the second item found in the tree. The tinfoil-wrapped box contained two Indian-head pennies. The children find many treasures in the tree until the day when the hole is filled with cement.
10. A prostitute gives directions to a lost man on the condition that he pays her. The man then hires her to be his escort for a week. One night before they go to see "La Traviata", he shows her a necklace in a jewelry box before putting it on her. Which of these movies includes this as a part of the plot?

Answer: Pretty Woman

"Pretty Woman" stars Richard Gere as Edward Lewis, a rich businessman, and Julia Roberts as Vivian Ward, a prostitute. When Vivian came out in the stunning red dress and Edward showed her the necklace, he closed the jewelry box just as she reached out to touch it. This was a ad lib prank, but the scene was so well-liked that it stayed in the movie.
