Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the opening scene of the episode, Xander is daydreaming. In his fantasy, what object does he use to stake a vampire?

Answer: chair leg

In his daydream, Xander is winning Buffy over with amazing fighting skills and a killer guitar solo. Poor Xander. It just wasn't meant to be.

2. According to Dr. Gregory, in what two ways do ants communicate?

Answer: touch and smell

So says Dr. Gregory. According to Buffy's interpretation of Willow's miming the answers, ants communicate through touch and B.O.

3. What chapters are Buffy's class assigned as homework?

Answer: 6 through 8

Interesting fact: while Dr. Gregory is teaching the class about ants, the picture he has up on the projector is actually of a beetle. Tsk.

4. What song is Xander dancing to in the Bronze?

Answer: "Already Met You," by Super Fine

The incorrect answer choices were all songs featured in the first season episode "The Pack."

5. Buffy and Willow are discussing cafeteria food in the lunch line. Which specific item are they disgusted by?

Answer: hot dog surprise

Buffy: "Hot dog surprise. Be still, my heart." Willow: "Call me old-fashioned, but I don't want any more surprises in my hot dogs." The chili bucket is from "That '70s Show," and "Manager's Choice" was my school's euphemism for leftovers.

6. After Buffy and Cordelia discover Dr. Gregory's body, Buffy goes to the library. Giles hands her a drink. What is it?

Answer: water

Considering that it's Giles, you would think "tea," but not this time.

7. Finish the quote: "Oh, this is fun. We're on _______ ______."

Answer: Monster Island

This was a Xander quote. "Monster Island" is a reference to the Japanese movie "Godzilla" and its many, many sequels (for example, "Mothra" and "Godzilla vs. The Smog Monster").

8. Principal Flutie tells Buffy not to use certain words in reference to Dr. Gregory. Which of these is NOT a "D" word that Principal Flutie specifically warns Buffy not to use?

Answer: none of these

He actually tells her to stay away from any word that starts with D. Principal Flutie: "Don't say dead! Or decapitated. Or decomposing. I'd stay away from D-words altogether." He also makes her go see the crisis counselor because she saw Dr. Gregory's body. "We all need help with our feelings.

Otherwise we bottle them up, and before you know it, powerful laxatives are involved...I'm always here if you need a hug, but not a real hug, because there's no touching, this school is sensitive to wrong touching...you have to talk to a counselor and start the healing. You have to heal.

Heal!" Principal Snyder later would comment that this is the sort of "wooly-headed liberal thinking that got him eaten." Poor Principal Flutie

9. Buffy says that Ms. French's fashion sense "screams" what?

Answer: predator

Willow: "It's the shoulder pads." Buffy: "Exactly."

10. Xander is supposed to meet Ms. French at her house at what time?

Answer: 7:30

Ms. French: "7:30? Here's my address."

11. What kind of alcoholic drink does Ms. French offer Xander?

Answer: martini

As we all know, she drugged Xander's martini. A good incentive for Xander to stay away from alcohol in the future.

12. Giles's friend Dr. Ferris Carlyle believes that his mother is coming back as what breed of dog?

Answer: Pekingese

Giles: "You were right all along about everything. Well, no, you weren't right about your mother coming back as a Pekingese, but..."

13. Which of these creatures DOESN'T Giles mention in his lecture on the myth of the Kleptes-Virgo?

Answer: succubi

Giles: "This type of creature, the Kleptes-Virgo, or virgin-thief, appears in many cultures. The Greek sirens, the Celtic sea maidens, who, who tore the living flesh from the bones of, um..." Buffy: "Giles, while we're young!"

14. In what year was the real Ms. French born?

Answer: 1907

Giles notes that "Ms. French" is extremely well-preserved for her age. The gang then finds out that there IS a real Ms. French, a 90-year-old woman who is a former substitute teacher. The She-Mantis stole her records and used them to get a job at the high school.

15. The actress who played the real Ms. French is the mother of which famous director?

Answer: Ron Howard

The actress is Jean Speegle Howard, mother of Ron Howard. She also had a bit part in "Apollo 13."
