6.05: 'Litmus Test' Quiz | The L Word- Season 6

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. At the opening of the episode, we see Tina and Bette having separate phone conversations at the Planet. Tina's conversation concerns Jenny's new script which recently was sold in a bidding war for how much?

Answer: 500,000 dollars

Tina is impressed on how Jenny was able to gather herself after 'Lez Girls' was stolen from her and worked out a new script. According to what Tina has heard, this one is completely different: "it's an action comedy about a talk show host and a cop; and the talk show host gets embroiled in a murder mystery -but the movie really revolves around the romance between the talk show host and the cop. Kind of like a 'Foul Play' meets 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'." This news hits Alice a little too close as this was the same idea she had disclosed to Jenny as her concept for a treatment. And yet, another potential killer is added to the suspect list.

2. Alice goes to Jenny's house to discuss the idea infringement. Jenny is oblivious of what she has done, and tells Alice she is excited about the movie concept and tells her she was invited out to dinner tonight to celebrate by whom?

Answer: Shane

Alice is too enraged to even think of joining Shane and Jenny to celebrate. I mean, who wouldn't be if someone discards your ideas as 'contrived, boring, and unoriginal', only to sell them later for top dollar?

3. After storming out of Jenny's house, Alice returns to The Planet and finds Bette and Tina are still there. When asked for a reason, Bette informs Alice she is 'working from home, yet she has no home', alluding to the construction going on at her house. What is Tina's reason to still be there?

Answer: too uncomfortable at the office

Tina tells Alice that ever since she was accused of stealing the negative, it's just too uncomfortable to go to the office.

4. During their conversation at The Planet, Tina and Bette realize Alice and Tasha are having a "third wheel crush" on whom?

Answer: Jamie

Alice is showing all the signs of a 'third wheel crush' to the eyes of Bette and Tina. They warn her that everything is good as long as 'the balance doesn't tip'. For this to happen, either Tasha or Alice would have to fall in love with Jamie and decide to act on it.

5. During their table reunion at The Planet shortly after Alice's fight with Jenny, Kit warns the gang that not only Alice is into 'dangerous business' with the third-wheel crush dilemma. Helena then confesses to her friends she's having dinner with Dylan on Saturday night for which reason?

Answer: She can't help herself

Helena tells her friends that Dylan has 'colonized her thoughts'. She obviously isn't over Dylan and the fact that Dylan mentioned to Tina that Helena was the love of her life gives her hopes. Bette thinks that it's a terrible idea and her friends second it.

6. Bette comes up with the idea of testing Dylan to see whether she would ruin Helena again.

Answer: False

Helena is skeptical, but Alice comes up with an idea of testing Dylan to prove whether she's a 'sleazy gold digging opportunist' or 'just someone who got tricked by the wrong guy to steal money'.

7. While the girls brainstorm on the test of character they're going to put Dylan through, they decide that it needs to involve someone that would advance her career. After thinking for a while, Bette comes up with the name of the perfect person. Who is this person?

Answer: Nicky

Bette thinks the whole idea of a test of character is 'ill-advised and juvenile', but if there were going to be a test, they should try to get Niki to pretend she was in some kind of big movie and she was interested in having Dylan direct it. Tina thinks it would be tempting enough, and Alice suggests completing the master plan by having Niki hit on Dylan and then see if she would sell Helena out for the big time. Back into missions, just like in the old times!

8. Back at Jenny and Shane's house, things are going a little rough between them as a minor clash occurs. What has Jenny forbidden Shane to do?

Answer: see Niki

Jenny doesn't approve of Shane seeing Niki. She thinks Niki betrayed them both and Shane can't go talking to her as if it isn't a big deal.

On the other hand, Shane doesn't think it's a big deal and refuses to accept Jenny treating her like a twelve year old and tells her to back off. Jenny eventually has to admit she needs to learn to trust Shane and vows not to fight.

9. Tina and Bette are having dinner with Kelly Wentworth and an artist. What is the artist's name?

Answer: Caleb

Caleb is slightly interested in how Bette and Kelly met. Bette tells him the where they know each other from, but Kelly prefers to add some spice to the conversation by mentioning Bette was in love with her.

10. At the HIT! Club meeting, Niki mentions a couple of Academy Award winning or nominated movies. Which of these movies didn't she mention?

Answer: 'Brokeback Mountain'

Niki believes that the key to win an Oscar lies in playing roles somewhat similar to the movies she mentions: Charlize Theron for 'Monster'; Sean Penn for 'I am Sam'; Nicole Kidman for 'The Hours'; and Hillary Swank for 'Boys Don't Cry'. She never mentions 'Brokeback Mountain'.

11. After Dylan successfully passes the test and Helena is congratulated, all the girls proceed to go to the party. Which is the last person to leave the security room?

Answer: Alice

Helena is the first of to head back to the club. Before leaving, Shane asks Alice if she'll be coming down, she says she will be there in a minute but stays in the room a little bit longer to spy on Tasha and Jamie.

12. Already at the club, Shane is being driven crazy by Jenny's constant scrutiny. She decides she needs to go outside for five minutes before she loses it. Who does Shane ask for help keeping Jenny busy?

Answer: Alice

Alice tells Shane she isn't talking to Jenny, but ends up agreeing to help by keeping Jenny busy. By the time Shane comes back, she finds them quarreling.

13. Who does Shane meet outside the HIT! Club while she's smoking and getting away from her girlfriend?

Answer: Niki

Niki and Shane do some small talk. However, Shane decides to go back inside because Jenny might not be happy to see them talking. Niki had thought Shane came over to see her at the studio in the morning because she felt something for her. She tells Shane to come look for her if things with Jenny don't work.

14. When Shane comes back into the HIT! Club, she and Jenny have a fight. Which of these girls is NOT part of the 'Three Musketeers' Jenny was left to deal with all by herself?

Answer: Kit

Jenny is outraged that Shane left her alone to deal with Alice, Tasha, and Jamie. She also thinks Shane was in the bathroom with Niki. The things heat up between them as the club crowd stares at their drama.

15. During their fight at the HIT! Club, Jenny tells Shane that the only way that something can get in between their friendship is if something gets in the way of their romantic relationship.

Answer: True

Shane believes her friendship with Jenny to be more important than them being together as a couple. Jenny thinks the opposite way, and lets Shane know. Just bear with her Shane, it won't be for long.
