Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. During the episode's introduction, the killer was seen washing the victim's blood off of his hands. Which hand was the killer wearing his watch on?

Answer: his left hand

The killer was wearing a watch on his left hand. Most people wear their watch on their non-dominant hand. Since about 91% of people in the world are right handed, most people wear their watch on their left hand. I'm an odd ball, I'm left handed and wear my watch on my left hand.

2. After the killer washes his hands, he leaves the house and gets into a car with Ziva, who is under cover. What color was the car that Ziva was driving?

Answer: blue

The car was fairly dark blue color. It was a different make and model from the government cars the team usually drives. For once, Ziva wasn't driving like a bat out of you know where!

Answer: Stan

The name on Tony's coveralls was Stan. Poor Tony, he always gets the lame outfits when he goes undercover. After the killer left the house, Tony went inside to check it out and found the killer's victim.

4. Ziva's cover is blown when the killer sees what name on the caller ID of her cell phone?

Answer: Gibbs

McGee called from Gibbs' phone to give her the code word telling her that the guy in the car with her was indeed the killer.

5. Upon returning to the office after killing the murderer, Ziva reaches into her desk to grab something. What did she grab?

Answer: some medicine

The shot made it look like she was reaching for her gun, but she grabbed some medicine, probably Advil or Tylenol. Judging by the gash above her eye, she probably had a headache.

6. What is different about Abby throughout most of this episode?

Answer: she's wearing rollerblades

Throughout most of this episode, Abby is wearing roller blades. She says it increased her efficiency by allowing her to get from place to place faster. Towards the end of the episode, Gibbs finally tells her to lose the wheels.

7. What is the name of the guy at the bar that Ziva eventually hooks up with?

Answer: Michael

His name was Michael Locke. The team was convinced that Michael was an accomplice to the serial killer, but Ziva's gut told her he was innocent.

Answer: O-

Hoffman (the killer) had O- blood. The other blood type on the knife was B+. This lead the team to believe that there was another victim that had not yet been found. As it turns out, the B+ blood came from a copy cat killer.

9. Who came into the autopsy lab while Ziva was staring at Hoffman's body?

Answer: Gibbs

Gibbs comes down to autopsy to check on Ziva. He tells her she had to let it go. Ziva felt that she could not trust her judgment because she almost let herself be killed by Hoffman. Gibbs reminds her that the minute she stops trusting her judgment, she becomes a detriment to the team.

10. Ziva proved to the team that her guy friend was innocent by comparing his fingerprint to a partial that was found on the murder weapon. Where did she get one of his fingerprints?

Answer: from the barrel of her gun

After Ziva went home with Michael from the bar, he reaches across Ziva to get his glasses. This spooked Ziva, and she pulled her gun on him. After he explains himself, he takes his finger and pushes the barrel of the gun away from his face.
