Is S.H.I.E.L.D.’S Agent Hill a trivia marvel?

- JAMES WHITE

1 In A Series Of Unfortunat­e Events, how does your character appear to die? I know the answer to this! We think mother perished in a fire. I had fun on set, so I’d like to come back. I have read all the books, so I don’t think that’s going to happen! Correct.

2 In The Lego Movie, what is Wonder Woman’s first line? Okay, I’ve got it. I think it’s, “To the invisible jet!” I didn’t have many lines in it, but I do remember it being in the trailer. Correct.

3 What is your credit on 2004’s Walking Tall? Oh gosh. This should be in a really big font in the magazine, so everybody thinks I could be cast as this... ‘Exotic Beauty’! It’s such a weird thing, something that would only happen in films. I’m not even that exotic. I’m just Canadian! I have that dressing room sign laminated somewhere. I auditioned for the lead female role and didn’t get it but was offered this. It’s hilarious. Correct.

4 What is the name of Robin Scherbatsk­y’s childhood dog in How I Met Your Mother? Oh... crap. My childhood dog? It’s going to be some kind of Canadian pun... I don’t think I know this? Can you give me a hint? Regina? The correct answer is Sir Scratchewa­n.

5 Which facility does Agent Hill help to evacuate at the start of Avengers Assemble? It’s undergroun­d... She arrives there with Fury... It’s not S.H.I.E.L.D.’S headquarte­rs? I know it has to do with the Tesseract. I don’t know what it’s called! But I know everybody’s name who works there! [Hears correct answer] Oh! I didn’t have that kind of clearance. The correct answer is Joint Dark Energy Mission Facility.

6 In They Came Together, Tiffany seduces Joel to get back together with him. What picture is hanging on the bedroom wall? This quiz is hard! I want to say it’s Mr Rogers... Wait, let me think, let me think... A skyline? Correct.

7 In the finale of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, what does Maria tell Cap they have to replace in the Helicarrie­rs? It was a… one of those doohickeys. [Hears answer] I feel like these are hard questions. It will make me go and watch more Marvel movies. The correct answer is targeting blades.

8 In Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, Major Turner’s desk has a dent in it. How did it get there? It used to be Jack Reacher’s desk, and he slammed somebody’s head into it. Correct.

9 Your character Lisa in Killing Gunther is a retired assassin who has opened her own business. What is its name? It’s called Hey Claydies. In that scene, where I’m demonstrat­ing my wares, my husband

(Gunther writer/ director/star Taran Killam) got in my sister and one of my best friends, so that was a really fun shooting day. And I got to hold ceramic penises, so it was a good day for everyone. Correct.

10 When you appeared on Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., we learn Maria Hill’s birthday. What is it? Let me try and figure out what they thought her astrologic­al sign would be. She’s stubborn, she’s maybe a Taurus. I’m going to say 10 May. [Hears answer] That’s so funny! My birthday is 3 April. It’s almost as if we’re the same person! The correct answer is 4 April 1982.
