Trilogy alert! Justin is back this week with six more trivia questions about baffling crimes, mysterious identities, and longstanding mysteries. But, this time… they’re solved, so you actually get a satisfying ending this time around!

2:46: Q1 (Music): Carly Simon confirmed in 2015 that the second verse of this famously enigmatic 1972 diss track is about Warren Beatty, though she also noted that he thought the whole song was about him, which sort of makes the original point of the song all over again.

9:22: Q2 (Everything Else): Named for a different mathematician, what conjecture, which says that no three positive integers satisfy the equation an + bn = cn for any integer value of n greater than 2, was finally proved by Andrew Wiles in 1994, over three centuries after it was first postulated?

18:37: Q3 (Sports & Games): What NFL quarterback, recently acquired by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, had a jersey that he wore in Super Bowl LI mysteriously disappear, apparently stolen by a member of the Mexican press?

29:36: Q4 (Movies & TV): Perhaps the most famous cliffhanger in television history, the whole country was asking “Who Shot J.R.?” after the third-season finale of what primetime soap opera?

35:38: Q5 (Arts & Literature): Landscape on the Banks of the Seine was stolen from the Baltimore Museum of Art in 1951, and was returned to the museum in 2014. What impressionist, better known for his plump female nudes, painted this recovered masterpiece?

43:39: Q6 (Times & Places): Called the “worst Briton in history” by BBC History magazine, what infamous East Ender was finally identified by DNA evidence as Aaron Kosminski in 2019?
