MacLaren’s regulars: jobs, quirks, and arcs

What you’ll be tested on

Expect questions that bounce between occupations, personality tells, relationships, and key turning points for MacLaren’s regulars. Some items are straightforward (who did what), while others focus on why it mattered to a character’s arc.

Every question is multiple-choice with 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can play carefully and learn as you go.

Difficulty and question count

Difficulty is mixed on purpose: easier character basics are blended with mid-level episode recall and a few deeper arc connections. Before you start, choose your preferred question count and difficulty to keep the session quick, challenging, or somewhere in between.

Common pitfalls (and how to avoid them)

A lot of wrong answers come from mixing up similar jobs, confusing short-term relationships with long arcs, or remembering a running gag but assigning it to the wrong character. When you’re unsure, think about the season context and what the show was building toward.

• Don’t swap early-career roles with later promotions or career pivots
• Watch for “almost happened” plot points versus what actually became canon
• Separate one-off jokes from recurring quirks that define a character
• Use relationship timelines to eliminate tempting distractors
• Treat arc questions as cause-and-effect, not just episode trivia
