Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Mr. Sanderson

Buffy's mom recognized him, and screamed, "Oh, my God! It's Mr. Sanderson from the bank! And he's getting away!". Buffy went after him and staked him.

2. Before she discovers the bodies of the children, what does Buffy's mother find in a puddle?

Answer: toy truck

She picks it up and looks at it, while Buffy finishes Mr. Sanderson off.

3. Xander and Oz are first seen in the cafeteria line. What does Oz get for lunch?

Answer: burrito

Xander: "So, a burrito." Oz: "This is a burrito." Xander: "Damn straight."

4. In which month did Willow say she had her hair cut?

Answer: August

Mrs. Rosenberg: "Willow, you cut off your hair! That's a new look." Willow: "It's just a sudden whim I had...in August."

Answer: Never Again

Mayor Wilkens: "I want to thank you all for coming in the aftermath
of such a tragic crime. Seeing you all here proves what a caring
community Sunnydale is. Now, sure, we've had our share of misfortunes, but we're a good town with good people, and I know that none of us will rest easy until this horrible murder is solved. With that in mind... I make these words my pledge to you. 'Never again!'" Right.

6. Finish the quote. "I was supposed to lead us in a moment of silence, but silence is this town's _______."

Answer: disease

This was part of Joyce's speech at the town meeting. It's one of the few times in this episode that she's actually rational.

7. Amy is taken away for having witch paraphernalia in her locker. What specifically does she have that's objectionable?

Answer: spells

This takes place during the locker search. Snyder: "This is a glorious day for principals everywhere. No pathetic whining about students' rights. Just a long row of lockers and a man with a key." The cops do find a voodoo doll in a locker, but not in Amy's.

8. Cordelia is angry because a police officer is touching her imported hairspray. How much does she claim that it cost?

Answer: $45

9. Which of the following does Willow not have in her locker?

Answer: foxglove

Willow: "I have stuff in my locker. Henbane, hellebore, mandrake root." Xander is more worried about the contents of his own locker. "Excuse me. Playboys. Can we turn the sympathy this way?"

10. Snyder's line "I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning" is a reference to which movie?

Answer: Apocalypse Now

The actual line from the movie was spoken by Robert Duvall's character, and went "I love the smell of napalm in the morning." This reference comes into play again at the end of season four.

11. Which one of Giles' books does Snyder single out as being objectionable?

Answer: "Blood Rites and Sacrifices"

Snyder: "Just how is 'Blood Rites and Sacrifices' appropriate material for a public school library? Chess club branching out?"

12. What profession does Willow's mom appear to have?

Answer: academic

She's an academic. She also seems to be some sort of a sociologist, possibly a professor of sociology, as she mentions publishing several academic papers that all relate somehow to that subject. Willow seems angry that her mother thinks she knows everything about typical teenage behavior, and that Mrs. Rosenberg can't be bothered to see her daughter as a person, rather than a case study.

In regards to Willow's witchcraft, Sheila tells her daughter, "Oh, well, identification with mythical icons is perfectly typical of your age group.

It's a classic adolescent response to the pressures of incipient adulthood." Willow responds, "Mom, I'm not an age group. I'm me. Willow group." Sheila keeps on spouting academic psycho-babble at Willow, and tells her she's consulted with several of her colleagues about Willow's "problem."

13. Willow says that the last conversation that she and her mother had was about "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood." Which puppet were they discussing?

Answer: King Friday

Willow: "The last time we had a conversation over three minutes, it was about the patriarchal bias of the Mr. Rogers Show." Sheila: "Well, with King Friday lording it over
all the lesser puppets..."

14. What's sitting on the top of the merry-go-round after it becomes a memorial for the dead children?

Answer: teddy bear

It's not the only teddy bear that appears in "Gingerbread". Willow also has one in this episode. She's playing with it in her room before her laptop beeps.

15. In what year did the children's bodies first appear in the Black Woods?

Answer: 1649

The children's real names were Hans and Greta Strauss.
