Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In a flashback episode during Rob and Laura's courtship, Laura almost dumps Rob for what good-looking corporal?

Answer: Clark Rice

4. What is the name of Jerry's cousin who flirts shamelessly with Alan, Buddy, and Rob?

6. Where is Rob when he dreams about the Wild West?

Answer: Asleep in Jerry's dentist chair

Rob fell asleep in Jerry's dentist chair, and when he woke up, he thought he could use his dream for that week's script. This episode is a great parody of all the popular Western TV shows of the 1960s. Episode 158, "The Gunslinger"

7. Rob and Laura take art classes on Tuesday nights at a local school. What is the subject of Rob's first painting?

Answer: Pear

It's in the episode's title, "Draw Me a Pear." The beautiful art teacher becomes interested in Rob, and Laura becomes jealous...especially when the art teacher wants to give Rob private art lessons in her studio.

8. In "Obnoxious, Offensive, Egomaniac, Etc.," what does Rob NOT do when trying to retrieve the insult-containing script?

Answer: Pretend to be Alan's son

Rob first breaks into Alan's office, but the script isn't there. So the gang breaks into Alan's house, where they find a sleeping Alan holding the script. When Rob tries to pry the script from Alan's hands, Alan assumes Rob is "Lillian." Rob complies by speaking in a high-pitched voice.

When Alan then says, "Kiss me, Lillian," Rob quickly kisses his boss's forehead. But then Alan wakes up!

9. On the evening that Alan wants to film a segment of his documentary at the Petrie home, what party has Laura already planned?

Answer: Millie and Jerry's anniversary party

Answer: Mel

Alan fires Mel after Rob encouraged the producer to stand up to the star. However, Alan soon realizes that he can't get along without Mel there to be his whipping boy. Episode 146, "The Bottom of Mel Cooley's Heart"

Note: Buddy was also fired and re-hired, but that happened in the first season (episode 14, "Buddy, Can You Spare a Job?")
