Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In "The Body", how much money did Vern originally estimate he had buried in the jar?

Answer: three dollars

The longer he couldn't find it, the more he said was in it. He was so obsessed he earned the nickname Penny Tessio from the whole business. Also, if he hadn't still been digging for those pennies, the gang would not have found out about the body in the first place.
2. How many people did Red kill to end up in Shawshank?

Answer: 3

Red was just trying to kill his high-maintenance wife to get away from her and her family, but she picked up her neighbor and neighbor's infant son before her tampered brakes went out.
3. Why did Andy kill his wife?

Answer: he didn't

He did not kill her even though she did want a divorce and was cheating on him. He even thought it was partly his fault that she died because he wasn't a very good husband and may have driven her to another.
4. Who was the prison librarian before Andy?

Answer: Brooksie

Brooksie killed himself shortly after leaving prison; he was too institutionalized. Hadley was the first guard Andy helped with his finances. Bogs was one of the sisters who had a thing for Andy. Mert was one of Hadley's guard cronies.
5. Who was it that originally called Todd an apt pupil?

Answer: Mrs Upshaw

Mrs Upshaw was his fourth grade teacher and his mother was very pleased by this description of her bright son. She did use the description but she was not the first.
6. Which of the following nicknames did the students at Todd's school NOT call the guidance counselor?

Answer: pucker

He was called those nicknames because he always wore sneakers. He thought it would endear him to the students but in truth it just made him a laughing-stock. Pucker was his nickname in college.
7. What did Todd kill first?

Answer: blue jay

It was Dussander who killed the cats and dogs. Todd ran over an injured blue jay with his bike, his first act of violence.
8. What name did Sandra put on the form at the doctor's office in "The Breathing Method"?

Answer: Jane Smith

It was not proper for women to have children out of wedlock and it was looked down upon so she gave an alias.
9. What happened to the father of Sandra's baby in "The Breathing Method"?

Answer: he disappeared after she told him

He was in her acting class; when she told him she was pregnant he told her he would do the decent thing. A week later he had disappeared without a forwarding address.
10. Did the doctor accidentally kick Sandra's severed head?

Answer: Yes

He did when he was stepping away from her body after the baby was delivered. The big surprise in the story was that she delivered the baby including breathing and pushing with her head severed from her body.
