   [NOTE: In Levine's original answer key, the last two answers for #5 were "Triple A bonds, best investment in America." and Robert Stack's character's name (which he has since forgotten). Anyone submitting these was given credit. However, the one team that submitted the REAL correct answer not only got credit, but a few bonus points, Levine remembers. He wasn't patient enough when screening the tapes for the sound bytes, and it had been too long since he had last seen the movie to remember this independently.]
