Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Jonathan Price is the eloquent actor who portrays the manager of a hotel which happens to be reeling in debt. He reluctantly signs over the deed to his hotel to Nottingham, with which provision?

Answer: His son should be able to manage the hotel.

With a great deal of reluctance, Marty agrees to sell the hotel with the stipulation that his son be allowed to manage it. The proprietor says that, "If your boy works hard and shows some smarts when he grows up, I'll let him run the place." Marty agrees and signs the papers.
2. Which actor portrays the protagonist of this film, a character named Skeeter?

Answer: Adam Sandler

Skeeter Bronson is the name of the character portrayed by Adam Sandler. Skeeter has been assigned a subordinate position in the hotel, previously owned by his father. Skeeter has aspirations of running the hotel someday, but he is deterred by an unfriendly competitor. Adam Sandler was also the producer of this film.
3. Mr. Nottingham has decided to proceed into the 21st century by expanding his hotel business. He has declared that he will close the existing hotel and replace it with a new upgraded version. To whom has he awarded the position of general manager?

Answer: Kendall Duncan

The somewhat unctuous Kendall has been chosen to be the new hotel's general manager, much to the chagrin of Skeeter. Kendall, (played by Guy Pierce) appears to have the upper hand, since he is dating Violet, Mr. Nottingham's daughter.
4. Skeeter's somewhat estranged sister has unfortunately been laid off from her position as principal of a school. She has job prospects in Arizona, so she must travel there. She implores Skeeter to take care of her children during the evening hours. What are their names?

Answer: Bobbi and Patrick

Skeeter is reluctant at first to become the night guardian of his niece and nephew, Bobbi and Patrick. Skeeter agrees to accept the job, provided that Wendy says, "Skeeter is the coolest. I am a nerd." Skeeter happily replies, "Yeah, you are." He then goes to meet the children.
5. The evening has arrived for Skeeter to take care of his niece and nephew. Unsure of how to proceed, he asks his best friend and cohort for some advice. Mickey (Russell Brand) gladly offers his own methodology on how to interact with the children. Upon hearing Mickey's advice, what does Skeeter do?

Answer: He throws French fries at Mickey.

After soliciting advice from Mickey, Mickey says, "Sometimes, I baby-sit my cousins, right? And what I do is let them style me hair." Skeeter, in response, calmly asks for some French fries, and then flings them into Mickey's face. Mickey, however, is unperturbed, and replies. "Actually, I like ketchup on my face because it's rejuvenating for the skin."
6. The time has come for Skeeter to come up with an interesting pastime for his niece and nephew. After discounting his initial advice, they want him to tell them a bedtime story. Trying to learn what kind of stories the children want to hear, Skeeter is interrupted by something landing on his head. He says, "What the heck is on my head right now?" What happens to be on his head?

Answer: a guinea pig

Skeeter is not particularly impressed by the choice of literature that the children have, so he suggests another topic, such as cowboys, dragons or aliens. Something appears on his head, and it happens to be Bugsy, the pet guinea pig. Skeeter wants to know why they call him Bugsy. Patrick says, "Because of his eyes." Skeeter looks at Bugsy and declares, "Wow! Those eyes would be big on a cow."
7. Skeeter decides to make his own bedtime story with the aid of the children. In a parallel to his own life experience, Skeeter makes up a story about the adventures of a peasant and a prince vying for the control of the castle. In the story, Skeeter calls himself, "Mr. Underappreciated." This turns out to be a bit difficult for Patrick. What other name does Skeeter decide upon?

Answer: Sir Fix-A-Lot

Patrick misinterprets Skeeter's initial choice. Skeeter says, "I forgot you were only six." He then changes the name to Sir Fix-A-Lot. His grand nemesis in the story is Sir Butt-Kiss, referring naturally of course, to Kendall. Skeeter wants to make Jill an angry raven, but the children decide that she should be a mermaid.
8. The austere receptionist calls Skeeter to fix a television in Mr. Nottingham's room. She informs Skeeter that Mr. Nottinham wants to watch television right away. In the course of fixing Mr. Nottingham's television, Mr. Nottingham reveals the secret theme to his new hotel. What is the theme?

Answer: Rock and Roll

After Mr. Nottingham reveals the theme of his new hotel to Skeeter, Mr. Nottingham is incensed to learn that the theme has already been in use for quite some time. Mr. Nottingham suggests that there should be a contest for the management of the new hotel, pending a creation of a viable new theme for the hotel.
9. Skeeter has determined that he will get a new red Ferrari or a large quantity of money, as portrayed in the last bedtime story. But, Patrick says something that sways his mind. In the story, Skeeter is promised a Ferrari and a kiss. Does he, in fact, receive either of these things?

Answer: No

Skeeter recreates the substance of his tale to the children by rescuing a fair maiden with a red hot Ferrari. However, his attempt at a kiss is violently interrupted by an angry short person. This act replicates what Patrick had visualized in his own version of the story. "An angry dwarf kicked me in the leg, and and I didn't get a free Ferrari, so there you go."
10. Kendall and Skeeter are vying for the position of general manager of the new hotel. In a final contest, Kendall presents a new theme revolving around musical theater. Skeeter's presentation is hampered by something. What is it?

Answer: A bee stung his tongue.

Kendall makes a lavish presentation, purporting to transform the hotel into a musical theater (Broadway) mega resort. Skeeter, on the other hand, intends to present his idea for making the hotel a fantasy get-away. He is prevented from delivering his speech by a bee sting, suffered while eating ice cream. Nevertheless, his best friend, Mickey, intercedes by providing a translation of Skeeter's speech.

The key phrase is, "Your fun is only limited by your imagination."
