Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. We begin with two moonshiners revealing the entrance to their secret lair, "which was all the director's idea," according to the inter-title. Just step on a stone and the brush-covered trap door opens. Jud, the head moonshiner, lives in a shack and shoots at revenuers. Fatty, the head revenuer, arrives, with his lieutenant, Buster. Buster gives Fatty a snappy salute, then opens the car door. What comes out?
2. Buster joins Fatty atop a rocky dome, which he of course falls from. Fatty tumbles as Buster scrambles to safety, then Buster falls again as he tries to rescue Fatty.

"Calm down, my child," he tells her. "Wait until you're married to start hitting him." Alice insists that she'll never marry "that big gorilla!" Jud gives his disobedient daughter a beating. Along comes Fatty. Who does he toss in the creek?
7. Like most leading ladies in Arbuckle films, Alice falls head over heels for Fatty. Her father is bewildered. How in the world did his daughter instantly fall in love with Fatty? According to the inter-title, what answer does he get?
8. Buster spots the secret entrance to the moonshiner's still. He and Fatty go in and taste the wares. They're interrupted when the moonshiners come rushing in. Buster escapes, but Fatty is taken prisoner. What does Buster do as he sees his boss hauled off by moonshiners?
