Answer: Lemon Lyman

Josh is unsuccessful in refuting criticism in the site's message boards. The subsequent fallout on the site leads him to say "It's 'Lord of the Flies' in there."

9. Josh's assistant goes by Donna for short. What is her real first name?

Answer: Donnatella

She is somewhat of an artist in her own right...In one episode she tells us that she is a flautist.

10. This character's response to a cat call from Sam leads to her being called a lipstick feminist.

Answer: Ainsley Hayes

When she is wearing a sexy evening gown Sam remarks, "Hayes, you could make a good dog break his leash." When she turns to leave, he adds, "Whoa, I didn't even see that thing from the back." The temp, Celia, doesn't think the remark is appropriate and mentions it to Sam. All three (and bystanders inlcuding Ginger and Charlie) later have a "forum" on the topic. Ainsley says "If someone says something that offends you, tell them, but all women don't have to think alike...I like when the guys tease me.

It's an inadvertent show of respect; I'm part of the team, and I don't mind it when it gets sexual...And you know what, I like sex...I don't think whatever sexuality I have diminishes my power. I think it enhances it." Celia asks, "And what kind of feminism do you call that?" Gingers slips in "It's called Lipstick Feminism. I call it Stiletto Feminism."
