Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Fay had three husbands who passed away. What did they all have in common?

Answer: They were all named George.

Fay had many funny stories about her husbands named George. In fact, she almost got engaged to another man, but chickened out when she found out his real name was George.

2. Fay met Joe on a flight. Why was she so upset during that flight?

Answer: It was her last day before a forced retirement.

It's true, she was drinking, but it was to drown her sorrows.

3. Fay once admitted to an surprising hobby. What was it?

Answer: shooting skeet

When the other characters look at her in surprise, she says, "What? Just because a woman my age takes up a hobby, does it have to be knitting?"

4. To what civic organization does Fay belong?

Answer: The Historical Society

Joe and Brian asked her to pull some strings to figure out how to save the house in which they grew up. She learns that Herman Melville once rented a room there, and could have been writing 'Moby Dick' in their house. Unfortunately, by then, they had already trashed the place.

5. Carlton Blanchard says to Fay, "I'm leaving my body to science. Until then, it's up for grabs." What does Fay say in response?

Answer: "One more comment like that, and science won't have to wait."

She was sweet on the outside, but knew how to be tough.

6. Roy says to Fay, "My God, woman! Haven't you ever had a bad day?" What was Fay's response?

Answer: "No. But I'm sure when I do, you'll be there."

Fay and Roy had a love/hate relationship. Heavy on the hate.

7. Why did Fay try to get on Air Force One when it was at their airport?

Answer: She wanted to touch Barbara Bush.

Fay had a streak of touching every first lady since Eleanor Roosevelt.

8. What did Fay take out when the airport was fogged in?

Answer: her foggy day fun box

The fun box had wildlife sticker books and an Etch-a-Sketch. Everyone dreaded it! So as alternative fun, Brian started hypnotizing people.

9. What celebrity did Fay once have to portray?

Answer: Oprah Winfrey

She got the starring role in the Nantucket play, "Phantom of the Oprah." When at first she didn't get the part, she said it wasn't fair because she was born to play Oprah Winfrey. Brian responded, "I know what you mean, Fay. There are so few good parts for black women these days."

10. Which character once confused Fay with someone on "America's Most Wanted?"

Answer: Brian

Brian was convinced Fay was going to kill him with a leg of lamb. The final scene had Psycho music, extra makeup, and lots of screaming. Fay's facial expressions were hysterical. One of the funniest laughs of the entire series!
