Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the episode where Theo believed himself to be psychic, he was able to predict who was on the phone call for Vanessa. Who was calling for her?

Answer: Morgan

The call was from Morgan. Susan and Cara were not characters on the show at this point. Vanessa couldn't believe that Theo knew who it was. It is pretty amazing considering that five different people were living in the Huxtable house at the time, and the phone could have been for any one of them.
2. What color was the sweater that Vanessa took from Denise without her permission?

Answer: purple

Vanessa had asked Denise for the sweater before the dance, and Denise wouldn't let her wear it. Since Vanessa was wearing green, she needed Denise's sweater. Of course Denise found out, and the two ended up fighting. Only in the 80's can someone need to wear purple with green.
3. What was the name of the dog that got separated from his family, and got to stay in the Huxtable house for a couple of days?

Answer: Squeakers

Squeakers had accidentally come to Brooklyn on one of his owner's business trucks. Rudy didn't like taking care of Squeakers, but was still sad when he left. Cliff made her feel better when he told her that she had a "Daddy Dog." Of course he was referring to himself.
4. When Mrs. Westlake's class got out of control in her absence, who demanded that they behave themselves?

Answer: Cockroach

No one could believe that Cockroach, a notoriously below-average student, stood up and told the class that their behavior was unacceptable.
5. What was Theo's favorite place to buy hamburgers?

Answer: Circus Burger

Theo loved Circus Burger burgers. His mom even mentioned that once he pushed Rudy out of the way to get to the front of the Circus Burger line.
6. In "57 Varieties," which of the following races did not make up Theo's teacher's nationality?

Answer: Mexican

Professor Grayson was Irish, Cherokee Indian, and African American. Cliff guessed that she was Scottish, Mexican, and Italian. He didn't get one part of her right.
7. In the pilot episode, Theodore Huxtable was never referred to as "Theo."

Answer: False

For the majority of the episode, he was referred to as Teddy, but they did call him Theo at the end.
8. What was Theo's middle name?

Answer: Aloysius

Whenever Theo was in trouble, Clair would call him by his full name: Theodore Aloysius Huxtable.
9. When Vanessa entered the science fair, her project was on the _______ _______.

Answer: Solar System

Vanessa was used to always doing well in classes. She was put into an advanced science class, but was not giving an advanced effort. Denise warned her that her project may not have been good enough, but Vanessa thought her project was really good. It only came in fourteenth place at the fair. Janet Meiser came in third with her project on robotics.

After that, Vanessa alienated Janet by falsely accusing her of getting help from her father who was an engineer.
10. In the episode, "Cliff's Mistake," what was Jeffrey Engels' daughter's first name?

Answer: Beth

Beth Engels appeared in the Halloween episode, "Cliff's Mistake." This is when Cliff thought he lost Jeffrey's power drill. Beth told Cliff that Jeffrey would cry if the drill was lost. Later, Cliff found the drill in a box marked "Christmas Lights." He put it in there so that the kids would stay away from it.

They hated putting up Christmas lights. In the last season of the show, Jeffrey Engels had another daughter named Leslie. There was no reference to Beth at all, and it seems amazing that someone as old a Jeffrey Engels could have a child that was the same age as Olivia. Did they think no one would remember?
11. How much money did Rudy steal off the counter in order to buy the shirt with lights?

Answer: $2.30

Normally, I would not ask such a specific question, but this amount was repeated over and over throughout this episode. Rudy went through all of the drama of stealing the money and watching her mom go crazy for a shirt that did not work anyway. That was a lesson well learned.
12. What was Pam's boyfriend Slide's real first name?

Answer: Arthur

He requested that Cliff call him by his real name, Arthur. He tried to pressure Pam into having sex before she was ready. Luckily, Pam was smart enough to leave him alone.
13. What letter did Vanessa keep messing up on when she played the alphabet game?

Answer: L

When she played at Susan's house, she couldn't name a city that began with L. The same thing happened when she played with her parents the next day. Cliff made a play on words and said, "You're in a L of a jam now, because the person that loses every fourth time has to drink four drinks." Of course the family was fooling her. There was tea in the bottle in place of bourbon.
14. What age did Vanessa need to be before she could wear makeup?

Answer: 15

She tried to sneak and wear it earlier, but Clair reiterated that the rule in the Huxtable house is no makeup before age fifteen.
15. Which one of the Huxtable children wanted to take ice skating lessons?

Answer: Rudy

Rudy went to her parents and asked their permission. The fee for her to take the lessons was $200.00!
16. What was the name of Denise's friend for whom she planned a wedding shower?

Answer: Veronica

Lela Rochon guest starred on this episode as Veronica. Veronica really wanted to marry her boyfriend, so she got pregnant on purpose with the plan of getting married, working, being a mother, and finishing school. It doesn't take a genius to know that a plan like that is much easier said than done. Veronica had to learn that lesson the hard way.
17. After Pam and Slide broke up, Pam got a new boyfriend. What was his name?

Answer: Aaron

Aaron Dexter was really smart, and really cute. He cared about Pam in a way that Slide never did. He didn't pressure her into sex. Aaron's interest was making Pam happy. He often wooed her with romantic gestures.
18. What was the name of the club that Rudy and her friends pretended to be 16 to get into?

Answer: The Exchange

Rudy and her friends, Susan and Danielle, put on a lot of makeup to look old enough to get into the teen club. They wanted a chance to win a birthday dance with JT Freeze played by Special Ed. Rudy lied and told her parents that the place was called The Cultural Exchange, and different people came there to share their culture and the Bible. Little did she know that Cliff and Clair had sent Pam, Lance, and Charmaine to spy on the girls. Pam ended up being the one who won the dance with JT Freeze.
19. Theo had a big crush on Lana Herman. What was the name of the girl that let Theo know that Lana liked him too?

Answer: Maxine Kirkwood

Maxine Kirkwood, Lana, and Theo all had math together. They said they came over to study with Theo, but the real reason they came over was because Lana liked Theo. Maxine said to Theo, "Lana is really nice. So why don't you ask her out. . .Lana likes you." In an earlier episode, Theo mentioned that Maxine Kirkwood was the girl he liked.
20. How much weight did Clair need to lose in order to fit into the old dress she planned on wearing to the benefit?

Answer: 5 pounds in 6 days

Clair's trainer, Emma Neuhausen, was played by Phylicia Rashad's real life sister, Debbie Allen. With her help, Clair was able to get into her dress comfortably.
