Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. When the family is at the health spa, who saves Homer from the steam room?

Answer: Krusty

The heat has been set on 'murder' (as opposed to 'invigorating' or 'broil'). A sign in the steam room (sauna) reads: 'Do not use steam room if you are overweight or have a heart condition'.

2. Who does Chief Wiggum enlist to help Homer look for his attempted murderer?

Answer: Sideshow Bob

Wiggum's theory is that in order to solve a crime, you need a criminal mastermind. Bob is apparently the craziest inmate at the prison.

3. Which of the following does Homer not mention as one of his enemies?

Answer: The late Frank Grimes

Marge says him. Bob has asked whether Homer knows anyone who would want him dead. He begins with: 'Mr. Burns, Fat Tony, the Emperor of Japan, ex-president George Bush -', Marge adds: 'the late Frank Grimes'. Homer continues with: 'PBS, Stephen Hawking, the fat little Dixie Chick.' Marge ends with 'And the state of Florida.' Bob says 'How can one ordinary man have so many enemies?' to which Homer replies cheerily: 'I'm a people person!... who drinks.'

4. When Bob sets up the fake Homer in the front yard, who of the following does not then come and attack it?

Answer: Ned Flanders

Moe comes first and beats him with a baseball bat. 'Now who's the sociopath, huh?' he yells. Patty and Selma drive past next, and Patty throws a brick at him. They turn around and drive off after she says, 'He's hurt, go, go!' Groundskeeper Willie throws a hoe in his back, and Reverend Lovejoy comes and kicks him in the crotch. Homer jumps up on him and says: 'Once I kill you, everyone will think I'm the real Homer!', then he cackles madly. Bob says to Marge and the kids: 'And none of this seems odd to you.' She shrugs.

5. Who says: 'I don't know how we ever had fun without him'?

Answer: Bart

He and Lisa are sitting at the kitchen table with Bob and are giving him shocks.

6. Who was the person who shocked Bob and broke the shocker, resulting in a huge afro hairdo?

Answer: Marge

She just wanted to give him a little shock for fun. This is the first time in the episode that she shocks him.

7. The brake lines on Homer's Mardi Gras King float have been cut. Where is the float headed for?

Answer: The Museum of Swordfish

Marge says, 'That museum has been nothing but trouble since it opened'.

8. How does Bob manage to save Homer?

Answer: He shoots himself out of a cannon, grabs hold of the Duff blimp, and takes Homer with his feet

Just like how one time Krusty shot him out of a cannon.

9. Who was it that was trying to kill Homer?

Answer: Frank Grimes, Jr.

Also known as 'Junior', he is Homer's mechanic that we meet earlier in the episode. Homer stands there for a long time trying to figure out who Frank Grimes was. When he remembers, he says: 'Oh yeah. How is old Grimey?' He also says: 'Wait. Frank Grimes wasn't married. How could he have a son?' to which Junior replies, 'He happened to like hookers, okay?'

10. Who did Lisa think that the killer was?

Answer: Bumblebee Man

We see it on a piece of paper when they approach Homer and Junior in the alley. Homer tells her they have figured out that it was Junior, and Lisa balls up the piece of paper and says 'Precisely.' I hope you have enjoyed this quiz.
