Answer: Rita & Fran

Rita mentioned a line from the book right before she and Larry took off on their "adventure" out of New York City. As a child, Fran had thought that her father's workshop might have a tunnel inside that would lead to Hobbiton. Dayna also recalls Tolkien's trilogy as she is lying in Lloyd's bed.

Answer: musical performer

Larry sang that catchy song, "Baby, Can You Dig Your Man," which was climbing up the charts right before Captain Trips.

Nick had all of these injuries, but it was the gash on his leg which became infected and made him very ill.

12. True or False: Randall Flagg killed the Judge.

Answer: False

While he did order the old man's death, Flagg INSISTED that the Judge's face not be marked...but he was disobeyed. And (s)he who disobeys The Walking Dude is always SEVERELY punished.

Answer: bicycle

Larry and Fran both rode bikes, then hid them out of sight in case anyone should look.

Answer: bank executive

Harry's profession must have been lucrative, to keep Rita in her diamonds!

Answer: False

Frannie had a son, whom she named Peter after her father.

18. Yes or No: Did Nadine's drastic change in demeanor almost cause Harold to abort his mission of murder?

It was the change in Nadine's hair, which turned completely white, that really spooked Harold and made him reconsider. Unfortunately, it was pretty much too late for a change in heart.

19. What possession did Tom not want to leave in his hometown when he and Nick left?

Answer: his toy cars

Tom had taken the cars from an abandoned store, and he asked Nick if he could bring his new treasure along to Kansas City, or wherever. Nick agreed.

20. What was little Eva's nickname in Stovington?

Answer: Princess

Eva and Stu had been the only residents of Arnette who seemed to be okay after Campion's crash. Unfortunately, the superflu just took a little longer to kill Eva; she fought and fought, but succumbed in the end.
