Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The opening scene of this, the first episode, shows what?

Answer: A dead body in the desert

Indeed the first scene is of an un-named body in the desert who we later find out to be Greg. The producer and writer, Gary Scott Thompson, said that this was a new twist on the old 'who-dunnit' theme, with the viewer knowing there was a dead body, but not knowing who it was! Throughout the show, the viewer could guess who had died.

After seeing the dead body, we then go down a fast paced tour of the strip and then into Delinda and Danny's scene.

Answer: Having sex

Including Danny and Delinda's one, that makes it two sex scenes in the opening five minutes of the pilot. No wonder this show made it! The couple are having sex against the wall, all the while knowing they are being watched by the cameras. Poor Danny has the awkward task of stopping the show. Rumour has it that this scene is a tribute to an un-named Hollywood starlet who frequently engages in this activity in elevators around Las Vegas!

Answer: Jillian

Played by the absolutely stunning Cheryl Ladd, Jillian is a guest character who appears in various episodes. Her on screen chemistry with James Caan is brilliant.

4. During the dinner scene, Delinda, Ed's daughter, enters and passionately kisses Danny right in front of her parents. This is too much for Ed, who performs what amusing action?

Answer: Grabs his fork tightly, ready for a stabbing

Luckily, Jillian is there to save the day. She anticipates the fork and quickly snatches it from Ed's hand. In an episode later in season One - Luck Be A Lady, Ed returns the favour by snatching a fork from Jillian's hand!

5. The pilot introduces us to one of the more impressive members of the show, Danny's car. What is the main colour of his car?

Answer: Yellow

This beast is yellow with two black stripes running down the center. We later learn that he worked on fixing up the car with his father for his mother, and that the car is his memento of her.

Answer: Bunny slippers

He earns the moniker of Mr. Bunny Slippers for his fluffy pink shoes. This, along with the elevator story, is based on a true happening in Vegas. A bum off the streets wearing bunny slippers walked in, cashed his social security cheque and made out with around $900,000. Unfortunately he then proceeded to lose it all there too.

Answer: Mr. Herman

Mr. Herman travels around with no less than 5 ladies with him wherever he goes. Without Mr. Herman, the lovely Samantha Jane Marquez would never have come to the Montecito.

Answer: Valet

When Danny is in a suite talking to Mr. Bunny Slippers and Sam... it suddenly dawns on him how they are cheating. Sam pulls out her PDA, which reminds Danny of the guy working in valet who almost ran him over twice...as he had his eyes transfixed on his PDA. This helps Danny prove that he is too invaluable to the casino for Ed to fire him for sleeping with his daughter.

9. Which of the main characters actually joins the Montecito during this first episode?

Answer: Samantha Marquez

Samantha Marquez, played with aplomb by the beautiful Vanessa Marcil, worked at the Red Dragon Boat. She is wooed by Danny to work for the Montecito exclusively in return for taking the whale, Mr. Herman. Marquez is signed to receiving 30% of everything her clients gamble at the casino...and she scores a free suite!

Answer: Mike

Yes! Mike has his wife and two kids there. The family was cut after this episode though. Producer Gary Scott Thompson scrapped his family simply stating that they preferred the idea of Mike being single like the rest of the cast.
