Patch is constantly accused of doing little study. What mark does

Patch achieve in his biology exam?
Answer: 98

Throughout the film, Dean Walcott, Carin and his roommate Mitch
question Patch's application to his studies. To be fair, Patch does spend
an excessive amount of his time in medical school entertaining and
mucking around with patients, especially children. However, he still
manages to be constantly near the top of his class. Maybe he is just that
good?

In the beginning of the movie, Hunter Adams commits himself to a

mental institution because of depression. What is one of the things he
did to help make him decide to leave?
Answer: He helped his roommate face his fear

That should have been easy. Helping his roommate face his fear and
giving Rudy courage to go to the washroom made him very happy.
Especially since his roommate was even afraid to leave his bed.
However, if you remember, Hunter Adams did not "connect" with
everyone so positively. Doctor Prack, Dean Walcott nor his roommate
Mitch at the University were very open minded to humour.

Mitch, Patch's roommate, mentions that he was the recipient of his

school's science award. Who was this award named after?
Answer: William. F. Thompson

We discover in this film that Mitch thinks very highly of himself and his
ability to do well in medical school. Hence, he is constantly irked by
Patch's ability to achieve better marks despite his appearing to do no
study and his greater age than Mitch. When Mitch informs Patch that he
received the award, Patch dryly replies, "I once drew a picture of a
rabbit that got me two gold stars". Beat that! By the way, Harold. S.
Charlesworth (to my knowledge) doesn't exist.

What was Rudy so afraid of?

Answer: Squirrels

Yep, it was squirrels...Well they were actually bad demons who took the
form of vicious squirrels even though no one could see them but him.
Good ol "Patch" killed them with an invisible gun and a Bazooka and
cleared a wide enough path for Rudy to charge into the washroom. It
was quite the scene. LOL

Answer: Meat Packer's Convention

Patch's belief is that you can change a person's everyday response to

human interaction by changing the conditions e.g. by acting abnormal.
He also beleives that this is not necessarily a bad thing. As part of their
experiment in just having fun and meeting new people, he and Truman
enter a Meat Packer's Convention. Here, Patch, despite having next to
no knowledge of the meat industry, engages with the entire crowd and
wins their support as a key speaker of the Convention (albeit
improvising).

Carin receives a messages from Larry Silver, who has been mentally
unstable since his father died. She goes to check on him at his house.
What happens that changes the course of her life?
Answer: Larry murders her

It is mentioned in the film that Larry has been unstable and has been a
repeat-visitor to hospital after several attempts at self mutilation and
suicide. Carin earlier expresses her apprehension and distrust toward
Larry, but Patch tells her to be compassionate. Consequently, Patch
blames himself when Larry murders Carin and then kills himself. This
leads to Patch becoming disillusioned with humanity and leaving his
practice.

The Gesundheit Institute is located in rural West Virginia and was begun
in 1980. The facilities continue to grow. Patch created this hospital (both

long for consultation in over-crowded hospitals. Its main aim is to heal
suffering with humour.
