14. Combat Zone. The company I worked for had a movie theatre on the edge of the area, located I think in a parking garage? and with the name I'm pretty sure Cinema 57. Turned out that a major portion of management and staff were a bunch of thieves. Although a bit tangential to my normal duties, I sat in / partly conducted a couple of interviews of suspect staff members. Not a happy place.

22 - Hamlet, I always thought

14..A sad and chastened Pinot and pleasureless Knight had to go elsewhere for their jollies.

15..Rbny & zorro recognize Mr. Hersh.

16..Pinot's interests and his mortgage are underwater.

17..You can throw hints at UcM, and he'll come up with liver cancer.

18..Now K9's progress at "Test-takers Anonymous was exemplary all through September, but here she's off the wagon.
She's correct with "It can't be". Zorro's got it too.

19..UcM's at it again, peeking at hints with LBJ.

20..1910

21..Zorro, often rescued by passers-by from standing atop guardrails, knows we're looking for "A View from the Bridge"
Some smart alecks wanted me to credit "Marilyn Monroe", but you remain losers.

22..The K9 Quintet all struggled with Hamlet, but remembered the gory parts.

23..Poe's Cask of Amontillado beats out the Tell-tale Heart in a photo finish. We expect Pinot to be up on his vinos, but the guy from Central America knows this also, despite having access to only bottled water.

24..Sandy Dennis' fame comes from WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLF ? in the 60's.
Sandy Denny was the lead for folky Fairport Convention. JC gets small credit.

25..The wives of Jackie and Art, cited by geordi, VAUC & JC.

You are 22/25 for a B+.
