The other two were Ivan Ooze and Ivan Radek. Three Ivans, since I figured a villain with a first name starting with I in a movie made after 1980 would likely have that name. Or maybe Igor.

Wow, that was good, fast work, **Prof. P.**!

Previous IQs:

Were you one of Sid Caesar’s sidekicks? - Yes, Imogene Coca (I’d overlooked the previous question about her).  
Were you a cleric who had a college named after him? - Yes, St. Ignatius Loyola.  
Were you the long-suffering maid and traveling companion of Miss Trixie Delight? - Imogene, in _Paper Moon_.

On to H!

IQs:

Did your future husband forget his name when he first met you in a library?  
Did your boss describe you as “little more than a glorified clerk”?  
Were you FDR’s cadaverous but trusted top aide?
