Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In "Tintin In The Picaros" who said: "A revolution without bloodshed?! Without reprisals?! It's unthinkable!"?

Answer: General Alcazar

Tintin promised to stop General Alcazar's men from drinking, if the General promised no bloodshed during his coup. That was very noble of Tintin, considering the current government had conspired to kill him and his friends.

Answer: Thank you captain! That's just what I expect, such a kind welcome!

Considering that at the end of the book the professor paid for the captain's new mansion (in exchange for letting him stay on the ship to test his submarine) it was lucky the professor hadn't heard him correctly!

3. In "Flight 714" who said: "I never shake hands it's extrememly unhygenic. I do vaguely recall some expedition but the details escape me. As I recall it didn't affect the stock market."?

Answer: Laszlo Cariedas

Cariedas was the old, shabbily-dressed man to whom the captain had discretely slipped some money mere moments ago, not realising the old man was actually a multi-millionaire.

4. In "The Calculus Affair", who said: "There oughta be a law which makes those infernal mileage-merchants stop when they see people signal!"?

Answer: Captain Haddock

When someone finally did stop and give Tintin and The Captain a lift, further down the road two young men were thumbing a lift and the Captain exclaimed "Hitchhikers? Blistering Barnacles, there ought to be a law against them!"
Hypocrite...

5. In "The Blue Lotus" which crooked cop said to Tintin: "Excuse me, you've got it quite wrong. Do you have papers allowing you to be in the International Settlement? No? Then I have the right to expel you. If the Japanese arrest you, then that's none of my business."?

Answer: Dawson

He was a craftly so-and-so, that Dawson. Tintin had hidden in the international settlement to escape the Japanese occupation forces, and Dawson had promised to deliver Tintin to them. Tintin angrily pointed out this was illegal. But Dawson just smiled and his quote pointed out it wasn't. Technically, anyway.

6. In "The Red Sea Sharks" what duo said the following about General Alcazar to Tintin? "My dear fellow, if you think we're going to tell you he's smuggling aircraft out of the country, you're very much mistaken."

Answer: Thompson and Thomson

The General was buying aircraft from the villian Dawson, who was also from "The Blue Lotus".

7. Who said the following quote in outer space in "Explorers On The Moon"? "Be quiet! Do you realise your tomfoolery almost cost us our lives?"

Answer: tintin

I can't deny it, it was EXTREMELY satisfying seeing someone yell at the Captain and threaten to clap HIM in irons!

8. From "The Crab With The Golden Claws": "I'm sorry, I'm a miserable drunken wretch!"

Answer: Captain Haddock

I almost asked a quote with "Blistering Barnacles" for this question but didn't want to insult your intelligence.

9. In "The Secret of the Unicorn" Tintin woke up in a strange cellar and wondered how he got there. A voice boomed out: "I am the ghost of the captain of the `Unicorn`. Ha ha ha!" Who was it?

Answer: Max Bird

I have to say, it was soooooooooooooooo ironic that the Bird Brothers went to the trouble of kidnapping Tintin, stealing his model ship and a host of other crimes to find that treasure, when all that time it was in their own basement!

10. "Me too, but with a little mustard if you please." CLUE: This Was In The Final Tintin story.

Answer: Professor Cuthbert Calculus

Calculus said that in the aeroplane on the way home, in response to a comment of the Captain's which was totally different from what he said. Which is good, otherwise I'd be worried about him.
