Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Rael Imperial ---- Kid"?

Answer: Aerosol

"It may not mean much to you but to Rael it is part of the process going towards 'making a name for yourself.'"

2. "There's Howard Hughes/ In blue suede shoes/ Smiling at the majorettes/ Smoking ---- cigarettes"?

Answer: Winston

And you know what? My fiance, who is a PG fan and considers his father to be the original Rael, does smoke Winstons, but I believe he is unaware of this connection.

3. What does John do when he sees Rael in the cage?

Answer: he just walks away

This question was originally about what happened in "Cuckoo Cocoon", but I decided there was just no one way to interpret it, so I replaced it with a much easier, more obvious question.

4. "It's the ---- Parade of Lifeless Packaging!"

Answer: Grand

Anyone seen "A.I."? That's the first thing I thought...

5. In "Back In NYC", what is NOT one of Rael's nicknames, titles, or things he's known as?

Answer: a killer

"I see faces and traces of home BACK IN NEW YORK CIIITYYYYYYYY
So you think I'm a tough kid? Is that what you heard?
Well I like to see some action and it gets into my blood.
They call me the trail blazer--Rael--electric razor
I'm a pitcher in a chain gang, we don't believe in pain
'cos we're only as strong, yes we're only as strong, as the weakest link in the chain.
Let me out of the Pontiac when I was just seventeen,
I had to get it out of me, if you know what I mean, what I mean.
You say I must be crazy, 'cos I don't care who I hit, who I hit.
But I know it's me that's hittin' out, and I'm, I'm not full of it*.
I don't care who I hurt. I don't care who I do wrong.
This your mess I'm stuck in, I really don't belong.
When I take out my bottle, filled up high with gasoline,
You can tell by the night fires where Rael has been, has been."
*Obviously not the original word employed, but I had to censor it.

6. "We've got to get ---- to get out."

Answer: In

Well, I'd hope y'all get this right, since this phrase is repeated in the song...let's check...twelve (that's 12) times.

7. "I'd rather trust a ---- than a ----"

Answer: countryman/townman

I'm sure many of us would rather trust the crack fiend than the lawyer, though...

8. Lilywhite Lilith has what impediment?

Answer: she's blind

Yep, wholly blind, but shiny.

9. Which song is not wholly instrumental?

Answer: "Here Comes The Supernatural Anaethetist"

"Here Comes .." does have four lines of lyrics, although it is mostly instrumental; a modern ballet section, as in the old style of the great operas.

10. So, what liquid causes the Lamia to shrivel up?

Answer: blood

They ingest some of Rael's blood, they die, and he eats them...However, not to worry; according to the slippermen, they will come back. Kind of like phoenixes, I guess. Cannibalism also shows up in other musicals--"Sweeny Todd", and let me know of any others you know of.

11. Who are the "Slubberdegullions on squeaky feet"?

Answer: Slippermen

Wet, maybe? They sound like octupi, know what I mean?

12. Where does the tube fall to?

Answer: the river

Gone...all gone...gone...

13. In the end, Rael chooses ----?

Answer: John

"He makes for the river and the gate is gone,
Back to the void where it came from.
And the light dies down on Broadway."

14. "Something's changed, that's not your face. It's ----! It's ----!"

Answer: Mine

Which could lead on to a really long theoretical analysis and debate which I won't get into right now.

15. What is the title of the last song?

Answer: It

"'Cos it's only knock and knowall, but I like it.
Yes it's only knock and knowall, but I like it.
Yes it's only knock and knowall, but I like it."
