Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which Austen character has approximately the same role as Dionne?

Answer: Mrs. Weston

Mrs. Weston (nee Miss Taylor) is Emma's best friend and confidante, as Dionne is Cher's.
2. Which 'Clueless' character has the same role as Farmer Robert Martin in 'Emma'?

Answer: Travis

Martin is the good but simple man that Harriet finally ends up marrying, just as Tai, Cher's protege, finally ends up with Travis Birkenstock.
3. Which social event in 'Emma' parallels the Val party in 'Clueless'?

Answer: the Westons' Christmas party

Just as Mr. Elton declares himself in love with Emma on the way home from Mr. and Mrs. Weston's house, Elton tries to kiss Cher on the way home from the Val party (after he makes sure they'll be alone together in his car).
4. Cher engineers Mr. Hall and Ms. Geist's romance. For whom did Emma arrange a marriage (according to Emma)?

Answer: Miss Taylor and Mr. Weston

Emma says she is responsible for the Westons' marriage, but Mr. Knightley scoffs at this.
5. Emma hurts Miss Bates' feelings by thoughtlessly insulting her. Whose feelings does Cher hurt by making a thoughtless remark?

Answer: Lucy

Cher says 'You know I don't speak Mexican,' thus insulting Lucy, the maid, who is from El Salvador. Josh scolds her, and Cher feels so remorseful that she fails her driving test (not that she would have passed it, anyway, but....)
6. Cher's dad and Emma's are dissimilar. In which way are they alike?

Answer: They are both widowers.

Emma's mother and Cher's both died when the heroines were very young.
7. To which 'Clueless' character is Mr. Knightley most similar?

Answer: Josh

They each have a family connection to the heroine that does not amount to incest when each wins his lady. Josh is Cher's ex-step-brother and Mr. K. is Emma's sister's brother-in-law.
8. Which 'Emma' character plays approximately the same role as Christian?

Answer: Frank Churchill

Cher thinks she's in love with Christian, who turns out to be a 'cake boy.' Emma thinks she's in love with Frank, who turns out to be in love with Jane Fairfax.
9. This one is harder: Who takes Mrs. Elton's role in 'Clueless'? Hint: this happens at the party at which Tai slips on the stairs.

Answer: Amber

After Elton finds out he can't have Cher, he seems to hook up with Amber, just as Mr. Elton finds a bride after he strikes out with Emma. Just as Harriet is devastated by Mr. Elton's marriage, Tai is upset by the sight of Elton putting his arms around Amber as they dance.
10. In 'Clueless,' who is the Jane Fairfax character?

Answer: None of these

Christian is gay, so he doesn't have a secret girlfriend. You could say that Christian's gayness itself is equivalent to Frank's secret engagement to Jane.
