Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. According to Buck Strickland, Hank Hill's longtime boss, Hank has been with the company through 15 years and 15 promotions. What is Hank's current position?

Answer: Assistant Manager

Hank Hill is Buck Strickland's most loyal and reliable employee. It is ironic, then, that Buck makes such a big stink about how Hank has been around for 15 years at his company and *only* has achieved the assistant manager position. Hank does not seem bothered by his apparent under-achievement, however.

Answer: Burt Reynolds

M. F. Thatherton is a cheater. One of his tricks is to sell propane to old age homes, telling them that it's oxygen. In a flashback scene we see Thatherton ridiculing the loyal Hank Hill, referring to himself as the queen bee and Hank as the worker bee.

Answer: Cadillac

Mr. Strickland has provided Hank Hill with a Cadillac that has a pair of longhorns attached to the front hood. Dale calls it a 'pimpmobile'. Hank has also been provided with a crisp 100-dollar bill so that he can wine and dine the potential client.

4. The potential client Hank has been assigned to wine and dine is named Mr. Holloway. Despite Holloway's attempts to speak with a Texas accent, which non-southern city is he from?

Answer: Boston

Mr. Holloway's voice is provided by veteran voice actor Billy West, who you may recognize as Stimpy from 'Ren and Stimpy'. West has also provided the voices for many other familiar cartoon characters, including Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd in 'Space Jam'.

5. Hank Hill believes it will be easy to close the deal with Holloway. What dessert item does he utilize as his 'closer'?

Answer: Pecan pie

Hank believes it's as easy as 'a cup of coffee, a slice of pie and a handshake'. However, he does not know what's about to hit him! The pie trick is just not going to work this time.

6. Mr. Holloway turns out to be rather a rude and obnoxious fellow. He insists on referring to Hank Hill as which of these television characters?

Answer: J. R. Ewing

Holloway thinks it's amusing to refer to Hank Hill as 'J.R.', despite the fact that Hank is nothing like the classic Larry Hagman character from the show 'Dallas'. Holloway also makes light of Hank's Texas accent and, in general, makes fun of Texas stereotypes.

Answer: Ogden Nash

According to Peggy, the 'noted poet Ogden Nash' wrote his poem 'The Cow' in a house in Arlen, Texas. She recites a line from the poem, 'The cow is of the bovine ilk', which Mrs. Holloway completes, 'One end is 'moo', the other milk.' Mrs. Holloway's voice is provided by Stockard Channing of 'Grease' fame.

Answer: Lyndon Johnson

Hank claims that he made a solemn vow to LBJ on the occasion of the birth of his daughter Lynda Bird that he would never wear a cowboy hat again. Unfortunately, Holloway is not a fan of Lyndon Johnson, claiming that he 'killed our Kennedy'. Hank is wearing a cowboy hat in the very next scene.

9. Hank next takes Holloway to a steak house, where the latter orders the famous 72-ounce Lone Star steak. What is the name of this restaurant?

Answer: Panhandler

The Panhandler is not only the location of the 'world's largest salad bar', but also of the 'second longest sneeze guard in the world'. Here, Holloway orders the 72-ounce steak, and only eats a single bite. In a later episode, Bobby Hill would eat an entire 72-ounce steak at this restaurant.

Answer: Mint julep

Mint Julep is the official drink of the Kentucky Derby, but this doesn't seem to matter to Holloway, who knows nothing of Texas values. Finally, Hank decides to set Mr. Holloway straight, telling him off. The show ends with Holloway getting into a fist fight with Thatherton, and having a great time doing it!

Thank you for playing, I hope you enjoyed this quiz.
