00:
10:08,574 -- 00:10:11,042

Only some of the answers

you have to send in to the questions.

172

00:
10:11,110 -- 00:10:12,975

You know, like true or false.

173

00:
10:13,613 -- 00:10:14,773

(STUTTERING)

You have those questions here?

174

00:
10:14,847 -- 00:10:15,836

Yeah, sure.

175

00:
10:15,915 -- 00:10:18,145

Well, that's very interesting.

176

00:
10:19,452 -- 00:10:21,943

"Question one. Cleopatra died...

177

00:
10:22,021 -- 00:10:24,080

"A. From swallowing a needle.

178

00:
10:24,156 -- 00:10:26,090

"B. From snake bite.

179

00:
10:26,158 -- 00:10:27,921

"C. From hiccups."

180

00:
10:28,661 -- 00:10:31,186

That's my province. I cover history.

181

00:
10:31,430 -- 00:10:33,455

The correct answer is "B."

182

00:
10:33,933 -- 00:10:38,029

Cleopatra, queen of Egypt,

daughter of Ptolemy Xlll, born 69 BC,

183

00:
10:38,104 -- 00:10:41,130

killed herself

on the 29th day of August, 30 BC,

184

00:
10:41,240 -- 00:10:43,470

by placing an asp to her bosom.

185

00:
10:43,542 -- 00:10:45,339

- A what?

- An asp.

186

00:
10:45,945 -- 00:10:47,503

A small snake.

187

00:
10:47,580 -- 00:10:49,309

Well, patch my pantywaist.

188

00:
10:49,382 -- 00:10:50,781

Well, well, next.

189

00:
10:50,850 -- 00:10:52,579

"Which way would you say it?

190

00:
10:52,652 -- 00:10:54,119

"Two and two is five.

191

00:
10:54,186 -- 00:10:55,881

"Two and two are five.

192

00:
10:55,955 -- 00:10:57,582

"Two and two makes five."

193

00:
10:57,657 -- 00:10:59,682

Professor Potts covers English.

194

00:
10:59,759 -- 00:11:02,159

- Did you hear the question, Potts?

- I did.

195

00:
11:02,228 -- 00:11:04,321

As the verb

is always governed by the subject,

196

00:
11:04,397 -- 00:11:06,831

the correct answer is,

"Two and two are five."

197

00:
11:06,899 -- 00:11:09,424

- Potts.

- Oh, no, Potts.

198

00:
11:09,502 -- 00:11:13,336

Correct for a grammarian perhaps,

but not for a mathematician.

199

00:
11:13,406 -- 00:11:14,998

Two and two are four.

200

00:
11:15,074 -- 00:11:16,336

(ALL CHUCKLING)

201

00:
11:16,409 -- 00:11:19,401

That's a good one.

Nobody's gonna get that.

202

00:
11:19,478 -- 00:11:21,070

Well, I certainly am obliged.

203

00:
11:21,147 -- 00:11:23,047

I could use a bundle of scratch right now

204

00:
11:23,115 -- 00:11:24,742

on account of I met me a mouse last week.

205

00:
11:24,817 -- 00:11:26,307

- Mouse?

- What a pair of gams.

206

00:
11:26,385 -- 00:11:28,683

A little in, a little out,

and a little more out...

207

00:
11:28,754 -- 00:11:30,119

I am still completely mystified.

208

00:
11:30,189 -- 00:11:31,588

Well, with this dish on me hands
