2. Who is the host at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe?

Answer: Max Quordlepleen

Max Quordlepleen: "So many of you come time and time again to watch this final end of everything which I think is really wonderful and then to return home to your own eras and raise families, and strive for new and better societies and fight terrible wars for what you know is right, it gives one real hope for the whole future of lifekind.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am your host for tonight, Max Quordlepleen, and I have just come straight from the other end of time where I have been hosting a show at the Big Bang Burger Bar and I will be your host for this historic event - the End of History itself."
4. What is the slogan of the Complaints Department of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation?`

Answer: Share and Enjoy

The words "Share and Enjoy" were displayed in huge lit-up letters three miles high outside the Sirius Cybernetics Complaints Department. However their weight caused them to collapse through the underground offices of many young executives, killing them all.

The upper half of the sign can be seen above the ground and in the local language it unfortunately translates as "Go stick your head in a pig". It is only lit up on special occasions.
5. Where does Eccentrica Gallumbits, a triple-breasted whore, come from?

Answer: Eroticon VI

When Arthur looks in the guide the entry for Earth is under that of Eccentrica Gallumbits. A newsreader quotes Eccentrica describing Zaphod as "The best bang since the Big One". Some people say her erogenous zones start some four miles from her actual body. Ford Prefect disagrees, saying five.
6. What species is the dish of the day at the restaurant at the end of the universe?

Answer: Ameglian Major Cow

The Ameglian Major Cow is a species specifically bred to not only have the desire to be eaten, but to be capable of saying so quite clearly and distinctly.
Cow: "May I urge you to try my liver, it must be very rich and tender by now, I have been force feeding it for months?"

Arthur (disgusted): "Is there any reason why I shouldn't have a green salad?"

Cow: "I know many vegetables who are very clear on that point sir, which was why it was decided to cut through that whole problem by breeding an animal that actually wanted to be eaten."
7. What is a Hooloovoo?

Answer: A super-intelligent shade of the colour blue

The creature with fifty arms is a Jatravartid, being the only race in history to have invented the aerosol deodorant before the wheel.
8. What is the animal which migrates across the Anhondo Plain on Lamuella?

Answer: Perfectly Normal Beast

They are captured using pikka birds and the meat is placed between two slices of bread by the sandwich maker (Arthur). Arthur and Ford ride them into the domain of the King.
9. Where is the Earth's local planning department office?

Answer: Alpha Centauri

Being only five light years away, the Vogons are amazed that no-one had seen the notice for the Earth's demolition. It is also home to the both small furry creatures. In the real world Alpha Centauri is the closest star system to ours.
10. Which of the following is not one of the books in Oolon Colluphid's controversial series?

Answer: God's Greatest Mistakes

The fourth and final book in the series is called "Well That About Wraps it up for God". He also wrote "Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Guilt But Have Been Too Ashamed To Find Out" and "Everything You Never Wanted To Know About Sex But Have Been Forced To Find Out".
