Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The episode opens with the dawning of a new day in Deadwood. A sleepless Al Swearengen stands alone on the balcony of the Gem Saloon surveying the street below. Who brings him coffee?

Answer: Dan Dority

It is suggested that since his breakup with Trixie, Al does not sleep well, and her normal morning duties have been undertaken by Swearengen's murderous henchman.
2. A calvary detachment arrives in Deadwood. Who is the commanding general?

Answer: Crook

General Crook and his men are in the process of making reprisals against the Indians for the Custer massacre at Little Big Horn. They stop in Deadwood for supplies and recreation for the men, many of whom desert to prospect for gold.
3. Magistrate Clagett from Yankton accompanies the soldiers as they arrive in Deadwood. He meets with Al Swearengen regarding a murder warrant against him out of Chicago. How much of a bribe does Swearengen offer the magistrate to quash the warrant?

Answer: Nothing

The magistrate shows no fear of the menacing Swearengen saying, "You can't murder an order." Swearengen later states that the magistrate, "don't go back to Yankton alive."
4. Alma Garrett's father, Otis Russell, offers to run her gold mining operation, and asks her help in paying a $42,000 debt. Alma agrees to help with the debt but wants her father to have no part in the gold mine. How does Russell threaten his daughter?

Answer: Implicating her in her husband's death

Alma married into the rich and powerful Garrett family of New York. They were not pleased with Brom's choice in brides and would have no hesitation in believing Russell's lies about Alma's involvement in his death.
5. On behalf of Alma, Seth Bullock confronts her father at the Bella Union Saloon. What happens when a smug, pompous and condescending Otis Russell dares Bullock to take a swing at him?

Answer: Bullock beats Russell to a pulp

The intensity of Bullock's rage alarms even his best friend Sol Star whose shouts keep Bullock from beating Russell to death. Seth storms out telling Russell, "Leave this camp, and draw a map for anyone who wants to believe your lies...and tell 'em I'll be here waiting."
6. Leon, Cy Tolliver's Faro dealer at the Bella Union, gets into an altercation over shirts with a Chinese laundry man. How does Sheriff Con Stapleton handle the matter?

Answer: Shoots the laundry man

After Bullock learned of the event, he tore the badge off of Stapleton's lapel and threw it into the mud. He later picked it up and carried it away.
7. What happened between Alma Garrett and Seth Bullock after Bullock savagely beat her father?

Answer: They slept together

The mutual physical attraction between the beautiful Alma and the handsome Seth was more than they could bear. Alma cared less that Seth was married to his brother's widow and was caring for his brother's son.
8. Reverend Smith's brain tumor worsens and he is convulsing, twisting and talking deliriously. What is done about his condition?

Answer: Mercy killing

In a very emotional moment, Al Swearengen smothered the good Reverend saying gently, "You can go now brother."
9. Al Swearengen has been doubting the loyalty of Magistrate Clagett's bagman, Silas Adams. How does Adams prove his allegiance to Al?

Answer: He cuts Claggett's throat

After murdering his former boss, Adams removes the warrant from the dead magistrate's pocket and hands it to Al thus ending one of Swearengen's major problems. Al agrees to pay Adams their previously agreed upon sum of $2000, however, Adams gets to keep any money found on Clagett's body.
10. As the final episode of the first season of "Deadwood" draws to an end, what does Seth Bullock tell Al Swearengen.

Answer: He'll become sheriff

With the tension between the whites and Chinese rapidly growing, and Seth Bullock's wife and son due to arrive in Deadwood to name only two of the many subplots, we anxiously await the second season of "Deadwood". I look forward to bring more "Deadwood" quizzes and hope that you have enjoyed these as much as I have enjoyed making them.
