Feathers, played by Angie Dickinson, didn't know her husband was cheating. Since then she traveled on the stage from town to town. She stays in Chance's town, however.
5. Who caught the man who was cheating at cards?

Colorado, played by Ricky Nelson, thought that the "man in the checkered vest" was cheating. Chance automatically assumed it was Feathers because of the handbill, but Colorado proves him wrong.
6. What is the name of the murderer who is in jail?

Pat Wheeler is a friend of Chance's who thinks that he doesn't have enough help. Pat originally asks Colorado to help Chance, who is with him, but Colorado doesn't want to help. After Pat is killed, however, Colorado becomes a deputy.
8. Some of Nathan's men pretend to be wounded and ask Chance for the doctor. When Chance turns around, the men take out their guns and demand that Chance let Joe go. What does Feathers do to help?

Answer: Throws a flowerpot through the window

She wants to go out and help, but Colorado knows they'll just shoot Chance if she goes out there. So he tells her to throw a flowerpot through the window and then duck while he goes out there. It works, and Colorado is able to throw Chance his gun and get some of them at the same time. All three of Nathan's men are killed.
9. How do Nathan's men make Chance come down the stairs fast at the hotel?

Answer: They make Consuela yell

In order to knock out Chance, the men tie a rope across the stairs and force Consuela to yell out. She does, and Chance comes charging down the stairs. They make Chance lead them to the jail to bail out Joe. Nathan's men don't know, however, that Colorado has joined Chance, and think that only Stumpy is there. They get there, and Stumpy, Chance, and Colorado shoot down the men.
10. Chance wants to meet Nathan Burdette. Who sets this appointment up for them?

Answer: Carlos

Nathan's men took Dude after the unsuccessful attempt to bail out Joe. Nathan and Chance have a deal to switch Joe for Dude. Carlos sets up this meeting for them.
11. While Nathan lets Dude go so that he and Joe can switch, Dude does something that messes it up. What is it?

Answer: He jumps Joe

While Joe and Dude are walking slowly toward their destinations (Dude to the building where Chance and Colorado are hiding and Joe to the Burdette warehouse), Dude jumps Joe and they have a fight, which Dude wins. After that, both sides start shooting.
12. Who unexpectedly shows up in the barn with Chance, bringing more shells?

Answer: Carlos

Answer: Stumpy

Chance told Stumpy to stay behind, but he came anyway, and shot some men who were trying to escape.
14. What useful objects, stored near the warehouse, did Stumpy and Chance use?

Answer: Dynamite

Pat Wheeler was carrying a wagon-full of dynamite, which was stored near the Burdette warehouse. Stumpy threw the dynamite sticks up in the air and Chance and Dude shot them mid-air to destroy the warehouse. The men finally gave up.
15. When Chance throws Feathers' tights out the window, they land near where Dude and Stumpy are walking. Stumpy asks Dude if he'll ever get to be sheriff. What does Dude reply?

Answer: Only if you mind your own business

Feathers was supposed to do a song and dance for the hotel customers, but wanted to see if Chance would dissaprove of her wearing a revealing outfit in public. He does, and she takes off the tights and he throws them out the window.
