🤔 Answer for Today's Trivia Question:

Mr. Strickland

The correct answer is E) Mr. Strickland

Stanford S. Strickland, commonly known as Mr. Strickland, is portrayed as a stern authoritarian character who holds a strong disdain for those he perceives as lazy, particularly members of the McFly family. He is depicted as rigid, uncompromising, overly formal, and lacking in humor.

During the events depicted in "Back to the Future," set in both 1955 and 1985, Strickland is shown as a teacher at Hill Valley High School. He is consistently seen wearing a bow-tie in both time periods. In 1955, he is shown lecturing George McFly about the consequences of being lazy, and later intervenes when a conflict between Biff Tannen and "Calvin Klein" (actually Marty McFly) arises in the lunchroom. Despite his authoritarian demeanor, he is easily distracted, as seen when he abruptly leaves to deal with another student's misbehavior prompted by a paper airplane.

At the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance, Strickland chaperones but is unimpressed by Marty's musical performance. In 1985, his character remains unchanged from 1955, including his distinctive lack of hair. He reprimands Marty and Jennifer for being late to school and warns Marty against associating with Doc Brown, whom he perceives as eccentric or unstable.

Strickland discourages Marty from pursuing his musical aspirations, citing the supposed lack of achievement by the McFly family. Marty defiantly declares his intent to change history, indicating his determination to prove Strickland wrong.
