Looks like the Skipper wants you to do a little more studying. Better luck next time!
I got lost.
How I got back here is a mystery.

9/10. I'd heard that Dawn Wells was Miss Nevada, but I thought #7 meant Mary Ann, not Dawn Wells. I should have paid closer attention. 😬

8/10. I feel deep shame considering Gilligan's is one of my all-time favorites.

I disagree with number 6....his manner of speaking is called the "Locust Valley Lock Jaw" which is a wealthy town on the North Shore of Long Island.
