Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What a mess - you fight your way through all the King's horses and all the King's men and there's the scene of the crime. Shell everywhere, bright yellow yolk (an AWFUL lot of yellow yolk) splattering the street, and the gooey white stuff gunking up your boots. What is the white gooey stuff in an egg called, anyway?
2. You start interviewing suspects. First up is the Jabberwock, his flaming eyes looking a bit nervous. "I wasn't anywhere around," the thing says. "I was watching a movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Kelly Preston. Funny flick!"
You tell him not to leave town, and move on to the next suspect. But before you do, you remember that Kelly Preston had a son named Jett. Who was the father?
3. You interview the Red Queen about Humpty Dumpty's death. She's antagonistic and loud, and violently denies any wrongdoing. "I was here in the garden the whole time!" she yells, "listening to a baseball game on the radio. That darned team from Minnesota beat the Royals 3-2. I'd like to have their heads..."
In which Midwestern American city do the Royals play baseball?
4. You interview the Mad Hatter next, and you're not sure whether he's hiding something from you or he's just crazy. "I was reading a book about some children named Bert and Nan," he says, dunking the book into a cup of tea. "Delicious!"
Which country produces the most tea annually?
5. You go to visit Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and you find it suspicious that they're completing each other's sentences. "No, we were here watching television..." starts Dum, and Dee finishes "...all day. There was a "Full House" marathon on. We love that Uncle Jesse!"
Who played the widowed father of three girls on "Full House"?
6. Your next suspect in the sad death of Humpty Dumpty is the Cheshire Cat. "Why, no," he says. "I've been reading Ann Landers in the newspaper. Or do I mean Dear Abby? I always get them mixed up." You tell him not to leave town, but he just smiles at you and disappears.
Where in the world is Cheshire?
7. The Mock Turtle is watching the "Star Wars" movies on DVD when you show up to question him. "I've been on the couch all day, watching Luke and Leia," he says, and you have to admit it would have been hard for a turtle to speed back home from the scene of the crime.
How fast does a turtle travel on land?
8. Now you interview the Walrus and the Carpenter, but it's hard to understand them because their mouths are full of oysters. However, they eventually tell you that they were practicing the Lobster Quadrille and listening to dance music by the Bee Gees, so you move on to your next subject.
What soundtrack from the Bee Gees is one of the biggest-selling soundtracks in music history?
9. You have to jog along beside the White Rabbit as you interrogate him. "I'm late! I'm late! I'm going to see "The Comedy of Errors", and the curtain rises in just a few minutes!" but you don't get anything out of him. This case is proving a hard egg...erm, nut to crack.
Who wrote "The Comedy of Errors"?
10. Well, you've interviewed all the suspects, and they all claim innocence in the messy murder of Mr. Dumpty. But you can't help but think there have been plenty of clues pointing you toward the culprit.
If you think the murderer was the Jabberwock, type the number 1 in the answer box. The Red Queen=2. The Mad Hatter=3. Tweedledum and Tweedledee=4. The Cheshire Cat=5. The Mock Turtle=6. The Walrus and the Carpenter=7. The White Rabbit=8.
