Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. As Al Swearengen surveys a new day in Deadwood, he smells smoke. What is burning?

Answer: Dead bodies

Mr. Wu is outraged as his rival, Mr. Lee, burns the bodies of dead Chinese prostitutes. Lee keeps the women locked in cages and treats them worse than animals. Wu confronts the physically larger Lee and is knocked to the ground.

2. What is Seth Bullock doing when Swearengen comes by to offer condolences for the death of Seth's stepson?

Answer: Making a coffin

Swearengen offers Bullock a handkerchief to wipe the blood from his hand which was injured in constructing the small boy's coffin. Al advises Seth that the man from Yankton is in town and wants to be reassured of Seth's alliance. Still in a daze, Seth nods his consent.

3. How does Mr. Wu communicate with Al Swearengen?

Answer: Drawings

Wu's English vocabulary is limited to a broken "Swear-jin" and a two word phrase unable to be printed here. Notwithstanding the language barrier, the two are able to communicate through pictographs that Wu is upset with Lee for desecrating the bodies to the Chinese women. Politics prevent Swearengen from assisting his ally against Lee.

4. Who is tending to the badly wounded Mose Manuel as he fights for his life?

Answer: Jane

Calamity Jane has prior nursing experience when she worked in a make-shift hospital during the Deadwood plague. Mose's labored breathing awakens the semi-sober Jane, who rouses the sleeping Leon and Stapleton and dispatches them to get Doc Cochran. She tells them to tell the doctor, "he's got a live one".

Answer: Apes

Trixie gets Swearengen's approval for the girls to attend William's services. He charges her with the admonition, "But it's yours to keep them she-apes from disgracing me."

6. Which of the following is not mentioned as an element of a superstition?

Answer: Flowers

When someone places a pair of boots on the Gem's bar, Trixie quickly sprinkles whiskey at the entrance to ward off evil spirits. She also warns Dan and Johnny that one cannot wear something new to a funeral. Johnny Burns relates that a bird's flying into a window foretold the death of William Bullock.

7. What does Calamity Jane do at the Chez Ami that she does very rarely?

Answer: Bathe

Jane needs the repeated encouragement of Joanie Stubbs to submerge herself in a tub of water. Joanie insists, "Jane, you need a bath". The filthy Jane finally takes Joanie's advice, although she finds herself in an unfamiliar situation.

8. What does Martha Bullock do during her son's funeral?

Answer: Runs away

Andy Cramed's blunt reading of scriptures causes the grieving mother to rush into her house to view her son's body. After being joined by her husband and regaining her composure, Martha Bullock changes her mind, and consents to allowing the townspeople to view the body and pay their last respects.

9. Cy Tolliver seriously doubts Andy Cramed's conversion from a gambler to a preacher. What does Cy threaten to do to Andy if he finds out that Andy is running a dice game in Cy's territory?

Answer: Nail him to a tree

Months earlier Cramed had contracted the plague and collapsed at the Bella Union. Cy ordered his men to take Andy out into the woods to die, and to burn the blankets. There is no love lost between the two men.

10. In a confrontation between Francis Wolcott and Cy Tolliver, the geologist accuses the saloon owner of being desperate over losing power. What does Cy say he does in such a situation?

Answer: Fight

In response to Wolcott's comment, Tolliver makes reference to Wolcott's recent murder spree and says, "What I do in a situation like that, instead of murdering helpless women, is I get on my hind legs and fight."
