"Somebody's Dead" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley February 19, 2017 (2017-02-19) 1.13[13]
At a public school in Monterey, a murder suddenly occurs on trivia night, but neither the victim nor the murderer are revealed. Backtracking to the first day of school, the families of five first-graders are introduced. Madeline Martha Mackenzie is a strong-willed, wealthy, and feared alpha female in town with a first-grade daughter and teenage daughter from an earlier marriage. Her friend, retired lawyer Celeste Wright, is the mother of twin sons who are also beginning at that same school. New to town is Jane Chapman – a young single mother raising her son, Ziggy. Renata Klein's daughter Amabella accuses Ziggy of attempting to choke her, which he denies. Madeline and Celeste befriend Jane. Secrets are revealed, including that Madeline is struggling to cope with her ex-husband Nathan's marriage to a yoga instructor named Bonnie and also trying to build a relationship with her older daughter. Celeste appears to have a very happy life with her husband Perry, but he starts to show signs of being violent. Jane's motives for moving to Monterey are unknown.

February 26, 2017 (2017-02-26) (HBO) 0.56[14]
Perry lashes out at Celeste when he discovers he missed orientation at the school, but Celeste lets it slide. Jane goes around looking for work with little success. Madeline goes on the warpath with Renata when it is revealed she didn't invite Ziggy to Amabella's birthday party. Ed questions Madeline's devotion to him when she continues to complain about seeing Nathan with Bonnie all the time. Madeline is further disturbed when Bonnie takes her oldest daughter Abby to Planned Parenthood. Nathan tries to come to a peaceful resolution with Ed about their parenting of Abby, but Ed senses Nathan trying to intimidate him and stands firm against him. Madeline's youngest daughter Chloe and Bonnie's daughter Skye try to mend the wounds between Ziggy and Amabella, but it leads to an incident of unwanted affection, and the parents of the four children are all called into the principal's office, leading Jane to have a flashback of an unwanted episode.

"Living the Dream" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley March 5, 2017 (2017-03-05) 1.04[15]
Perry chokes Celeste when he believes she deliberately left him out of a family gathering, after which Celeste threatens to leave him. Renata's party for Amabella is a huge success, but she is ultimately upset when Madeline had invited Amabella's closest friends and Ziggy to Disney on Ice on the same day. At therapy, Perry claims his outbursts are out of fear that Celeste does not love him, which Celeste tries to deny. When Abby's academic performance starts to decline, her guidance counselor believes it is being caused by stress at home, so Abby decides to stay with Nathan much to Madeline's dismay. Jane gets Ziggy involved with more extracurricular activities and helps him put together a family tree for school with Madeline's help. Jane lashes out at Ziggy when he insists on putting his father's name on the tree, and Jane confides to Madeline that Ziggy was the result of rape by a man named Saxon Banks whom she has not seen since.

"Push Comes to Shove" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley March 12, 2017 (2017-03-12) 1.04[16]
Abigail moves in with Nathan and Bonnie.
Celeste legally represents Joseph and Madeline in a meeting with the Mayor regarding their production of the controversial Avenue Q. Celeste successfully convinces the Mayor to allow the play to go ahead, and in the process realizes that she desires to return to work. She asks her therapist how best to broach this subject with Perry, but Dr. Reisman is more concerned with why Celeste is afraid to do so. At home, the increasingly insecure Perry tells Celeste he does not want her to attend any future meetings. When she refuses, he grabs her by the throat, but quickly relinquishes when one of their children enters the room.
Joseph and Madeline kiss, and it is revealed they had an affair a year ago.
Madeline locates a man named Saxon Baker whom she believes to be the alias of Saxon Banks. She shares this information with Jane and Celeste, and they plan to travel to San Luis Obispo together to confront him. Jane comments that she would kill Saxon Banks if she could, but quickly dismisses the remark as a joke when Madeline becomes concerned.
Ms. Barnes notices that Amabella is quiet and suspects she is still being hurt by a classmate. Despite Amabella's assertions that she and Ziggy are friends, Ms. Barnes requests that Jane take Ziggy to a child psychologist for evaluation. The psychologist believes that Ziggy is innocent, and that he may actually be being bullied himself. A follow-up appointment is scheduled.
5
"Once Bitten" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley March 19, 2017 (2017-03-19) 1.17[17]
Nathan spots Jane at the gun range and tells Madeline. Although Jane reassures Madeline that she carries a gun solely for its psychological benefits, Madeline begins to regret tracking down Saxon Baker.
Renata discovers a bite mark on Amabella's arm, but Amabella refuses to disclose who bit her. Renata assumes it is Ziggy and a meeting is held between Jane and the school principal. Jane becomes concerned that the school community will learn Ziggy is the product of rape and be further prejudiced against him.
Madeline reads on Abigail's Facebook page that she is undertaking a "secret project" but is frustrated when Nathan knows nothing about it. Joseph approaches Madeline at lunch and insists she take a drive with him to talk. He wants to continue their relationship and is convinced Madeline still has feelings for him, but she maintains that their affair is over. During the drive they are involved in a car crash. Madeline is uninjured, while Joseph suffers a concussion and collapsed lung. The incident raises suspicion from community members, including Ed, and Joseph's wife, Tori, as to why Madeline and Joseph were driving together.
Perry is angered when Celeste does not ask the twins to tidy their toys. She responds by telling him to clean up the mess himself, triggering further violence from Perry, followed by aggressive sex and him breaking down in tears. Later, Dr. Reisman confronts Celeste with her belief that she is being abused and, although initially reluctant to accept this, Celeste eventually reveals that she has previously feared for her life and considered leaving Perry many times. The therapist urges Celeste to reflect on the future implications of Perry's behavior for their children.
Jane secretly travels to San Luis Obispo to confront Saxon Baker, taking her gun with her.
6
"Burning Love" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley March 26, 2017 (2017-03-26) 1.39[18]
Jane reveals to Madeline that she went to confront Saxon Baker, but discovered he was not the Saxon Banks that had raped her. Madeline attempts to convince Jane to give up the search.
Ms. Barnes tells Jane a petition has begun to have Ziggy suspended. Jane confronts Renata, assuming she is the culprit, and, in the heat of the altercation, gouges her eye. She later apologizes, having come to the realization that they have both been acting to protect their children. Renata forgives Jane and reveals her plan to schedule playdates with each of Amabella's classmates to find out which one is hurting her.
Celeste's therapist advises her to prepare to leave Perry by renting an apartment and disclosing the abuse to friends, who could serve as witnesses in a potential custody battle. Later, Perry tries to initiate sex with Celeste. When rejected, he grabs her by the hair and she defensively hits him in the groin with a tennis racquet, fracturing his penis. Returning from the hospital, he tells Celeste she is "lucky" he didn't kill her. The following day she begins looking for an apartment.
At the opening night of Avenue Q, Tori confronts Madeline with suspicions that she had an affair with Joseph, whom she believes is still in love with Madeline. At home, Madeline and Ed have another argument about her lack of passion toward him, which culminates in her alluding to having made a "terrible mistake". However, before she can elaborate, Ed urges her not to say anymore.
Nathan discovers that Abigail's "secret project" is auctioning her virginity to raise money for Amnesty International. When Madeline is informed, she furiously confronts Abigail, disclosing her affair in the process.

"You Get What You Need" Jean-Marc Vallée David E. Kelley April 2, 2017 (2017-04-02) 1.86[19]
Most of the episode takes place on the day of the trivia night. Following another beating, Celeste decides to leave Perry the day after the trivia night. Ziggy confesses to Jane that it was Max who choked Amabella and that he has also been violent towards Skye. Madeline talks to Joseph about his wife knowing about their affair; their meeting ends in an argument. After confiding to Madeline over coffee, Jane tells Celeste that her son is the bully. Celeste goes home and asks Max to be truthful with her.
When preparing to leave for the trivia night, Perry sees a text message on Celeste's phone from the landlady of her secret apartment. He confronts her about it on the way to the party. Once at the venue, he tries to bar her from leaving the car, but she manages to escape when Renata and her husband come to greet them. At the party, Celeste tries to avoid Perry, and tells Renata that Max is the bully. Meanwhile, Madeline has gotten drunk and runs away during Ed's performance. Jane goes after her and finds her on top of concrete stairs at the back of the venue. Madeline is crying and tells Jane that she cheated on Ed. Renata also goes after them and apologizes to Jane for having blamed Ziggy.
Celeste joins the women, followed by Perry. Bonnie, who noticed Perry and Celeste arguing earlier, follows them and watches the group from afar. Jane realizes that Perry is the man who raped her. He pleads with Celeste to come back home with him, and when she declines, he attacks her, with Madeline, Jane and Renata struggling to control him. Bonnie rushes in and pushes Perry down the stairs, killing him.
In the police interviews, the women all confirm there was a fight with Perry, but claim he fell accidentally. While one of the detectives is suspicious, the police cannot prove anything as the women's stories match each other. In the last scene, the five women and their children are shown enjoying a day on the beach while being watched by the detective through binoculars.

Owen Hunt, M.D. is a fictional character from the medical drama television series Grey's Anatomy, which airs on the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) in the United States. The character was created by series' producer Shonda Rhimes, and is portrayed by actor Kevin McKidd. He was introduced in season five as a U.S. Army trauma surgeon who served in war-torn Iraq, and subsequently joins the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital to teach medicine as a surgical attending, head of trauma surgery, and eventual chief of surgery, sometimes with unorthodox methods. Originally contracted to appear for a multi-episode story arc, he was upgraded to a series' regular at the conclusion of his first appearance.
The fictional character served as a love interest for surgical fellow Cristina Yang, and had an unstable personality when first introduced, suffering from PTSD. McKidd's connection with fellow actress Sandra Oh (Cristina Yang) has been acclaimed amongst critics, with Matt Roush of TV Guide calling the "instant sparks" between McKidd and Oh "electrifying". McKidd was nominated for two awards for his work on the show, winning one of them. Chris Monfette of IGN has praised the addition of "fresh, new characters" such as Owen Hunt.

Storylines[edit]
Before his regular appearances on the show, Owen Hunt was a United States Army surgeon, specializing in trauma surgery. The character makes a dramatic first appearance when he performs a tracheotomy on a man with a pen, winning the admiration of resident Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh). He is offered a job by former chief of surgery Richard Webber (James Pickens, Jr.), but declines, explaining that he has not completed his tour in Iraq.[1] His appointment as the new head of trauma surgery at Seattle Grace Hospital was not well-received initially. By his first week he manages to irk both Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) and Mark Sloan (Eric Dane), head of neurosurgery and plastic surgery, respectively, who view his treatment of some of the patients as crude, and also rebuffed by resident Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl) when he stabs a set of pigs and then orders the residents and interns to save their lives, in order to teach them medicine on "live tissue."[2] Hunt eventually embarks on a relationship with Yang, but it comes to a sudden close when his PTSD gets the best of him, and he unconsciously strangles her.[3] Soon after the breakup, he begins therapy with the hospital psychiatrist, Dr. Wyatt. Some time later, a soldier visits the hospital for treatment, and his presence influences Owen to contemplate returning to the US Army. When he shares this with Cristina, she disagrees with his decision, stating that she doesn't want him to die, and the two eventually rekindle their relationship.[4] Owen brings in Teddy Altman (Kim Raver), his best friend and colleague from when he was in the army, as the new head of cardiothoracic surgery.[5] When it is revealed that Hunt and Altman may be potential lovers, Hunt and Yang's relationship is challenged, and eventually concluded by Yang.[6]
During a hospital shooting, Owen is shot and injured, attracting the sympathy of Cristina, who subsequently restores their relationship.[7] Due to the emotional reverberations of the shooting crisis, Owen and Cristina decide to wed one another shortly after their reconciliation, not wanting to risk separation.[8] When Cristina discovers she is pregnant, Owen is displeased with her desire to abort the baby, and the two separate from each other.[9] In the fallout of resident Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo)'s tampering with Derek Shepherd's Alzheimer's trial, Owen is promoted to Chief of Surgery after Webber steps down.[10] After substantial thought, Owen reluctantly decides to accompany Cristina to the abortion, uniting the two.[11] Owen's friendship with Teddy ends when Owen lies to Teddy about her husband's sudden death, due to Owen wanting her to finish a surgery she was currently performing and Teddy blaming Owen for her husband's death.[12][13] Feeling abandoned and disconcerted after an altercation with Cristina, Owen has a one-night stand with a patient's friend.[14] Cristina consequently finds out, terminates their relationship, and their marriage is tested. After Cristina passed her medical boards, she reconciles with Owen, but reveals to him that she is leaving Seattle to go to Mayo Clinic.[15] Teddy and Owen eventually became friends again. She had been offered a position at the United States Army Medical Command but chose to stay at Seattle Grace Mercy West out of loyalty. After Teddy's husband Henry dies she wallows in her grief and it affects her colleagues and residents, causing Owen to "fire" her so that she can have a fresh start elsewhere.[16] He also fires April Kepner (Sarah Drew) because the hospital cannot afford to keep her due to her not being a Board certified.[16] Months later, Hunt visits Kepner and rehires her as he realized he made a mistake.
In season 9 Cristina and Owen's marriage is again very strained. Cristina is working at Mayo Clinic and Owen in Seattle but she returns. Owen asks for a divorce. He later shows that he is still in love with her and only asked for a divorce so Cristina and the others involved in the plane crash get the money. Cristina and Owen reconcile in episode 9 before Bailey's wedding.
In season 10, Cristina decides to accept a job to run a state of the art clinic in Switzerland. Owen supports her decision as he realizes no good could come from him asking her to stay, but requests her not to leave him until she has to leave him for good, following which, they both spend two weeks leading to her permanent departure together. While saying her farewell to her colleagues of the last seven years, there is a possible act of terrorism in Seattle, which later turns out to be just a gas main explosion. Cristina has a quick but emotional goodbye hug with Derek, Bailey, and Webber, leaves her shares of the hospital to Alex, and dances it out with Meredith one last time to an old favorite song. Owen, however, is busy saving a patient in the O.R., so they share a silent goodbye through the gallery's glass.
In Season 11, Owen develops a relationship with Amelia Shepherd. This is off and on throughout Season 11 and 12 until the end of Season 12 where he and Amelia get married.
Development[edit]
Casting and creation[edit]
McKidd had to postpone his appointment with series' creator Shonda Rhimes due to it being his son's birthday.[17]
Shonda Rhimes, series' creator, says that the character was envisioned "an old-fashioned tortured hero" and likens him to Heathcliff.[17] Originally set to appear in a multi-episode story arc, Kevin McKidd's contract was extended, securing him a slot as a series' regular of Grey's Anatomy.[18] In July 2008, Entertainment Weekly announced the possibility of McKidd becoming a series' regular,[19] with this possibility eventually being confirmed by People.[20] When asked of how he got involved with the show, McKidd offered the insight:
“ I was doing a movie off and on for three months, and it was my son's birthday, so I managed to land back in LA. around 2 p.m. Then I got a call from my agent, saying, "You have to turn back around because Shonda wants to meet you for this role on Grey’s." I was like, "I'd love to meet her, but I can't. Can we do tomorrow?" And they're family-friendly, so they were really understanding. As soon as I heard the pitch for the character, I was sold on it. It's a different energy and a different viewpoint. I thought it was an important story to tell, especially on a prime-time TV show. To get in there and get your hands dirty and explore what trauma surgery is like in war zones and what it's like to rehabilitate yourself to civilian life. It's not just a new doctor showing up. It's exploring how hard it is to reintegrate yourself back into the real world after being in the war zone for three tours.[17] ”
McKidd told BuddyTV, "It's been really great. I was nervous when I started because every job I've ever done before this, I have been in the job right from day one when everybody's new and getting to know each other. So I was nervous because I had never done this before. And I feel really grateful to the Grey's cast and crew and everyone there, really, because they've been so nice to me and gracious and accepting of me joining the show. The transition was much easier than I thought it might be, which I'm very grateful for."[21] McKidd has told People that he thinks Grey's Anatomy is a great show and he feels lucky to be on it.[20] Shonda Rhimes, the series' creator, said of his addition, "I am excited to have Kevin McKidd joining us for the season, he's been a delight to collaborate with and brings incredible passion, talent and creativity to his work. Plus, he’s already got the ‘Mc’ built into his name so we had to keep him."[18]
Characterization[edit]
McKidd and Oh's characters' relationship and connection has been a major aspect of Owen's characterization
The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) characterized Hunt as "confident", "innovative", "intelligent", while he also can be "aggressive", "brazen", "presumptuous", "hasty and rash".[22] McKidd said of his character: "[...] He's not an easy character to connect to, I think. There's some darkness to him and there's some danger to him that I think is really interesting and exciting to play. [...]"[21] Additionally, McKidd describes Hunt as "very instinctive, and follows his gut, and he's very impulsive, and very immediate. He immediately assesses a situation. And he's very honest, sometimes painfully honest, with himself and with others. He wants to make himself better. He wants to improve himself as a person. He's a decent guy, a sort of a guy I'd like to go out and have a beer with."[23] Hunt's unorthodox teaching methods have been the subject of controversy. McKidd said of this:
"You know, I think, at the end of the day, [Owen]'s basically a good man who has some pretty extreme teaching techniques that he learned in the army. And all these things that are in the show are actually the way trauma surgeons are taught. But I think probably beyond that, he very much just calls a spade a spade and looks at each scenario. He's not trying to be difficult. He just looks at each scenario and each case and each patient and knows what is needed and when to cut to the chase, and doesn't want to mess about with the periphery of it. And sometimes that gets him into trouble, and sometimes that is for the best. So, it'd be interesting and kind of exciting to see where he goes."
—  Kevin McKidd, BuddyTV[21]
The look of Owen has been described as hardcore and the antithesis of the other males on the show. McKidd says it's not just the look of Owen, but the fact that in his profession, he is dealing with life and death everyday. The one distinction he finds between his character and the others is that Owen does not care what other people think of him.[17] When McKidd returned from his first appearance, his character appeared to have been changed. McKidd told TV Guide: "Yes, that was who he really is in the premiere, but now we're seeing what can happen to a good man, a good soldier and good surgeon [because of war]."[24]
There's a great debate there for what the dynamic is, with what Cristina has done to this marriage and her choice and what Owen's choice is and his behavior. There's a really interesting conversation to be had because of those choices: How do you move on? How does that change the dynamic of the relationship? If you can really dive into that -- there's two betrayals, very big ones. I don't know how they sustain that relationship. I don't know how you come back from that kind of betrayal. Certainly if you're married, the notion of the next step would be to have children and if that's been taken away, I would find it very hard for Owen to stay in that relationship.

The character of Owen Hunt had an almost instant attraction to Cristina Yang since his first appearance at Seattle Grace, illustrated by the passionate kiss they share soon after they meet. Owen's story and connection with fellow character Cristina has been a topic of discussion. McKidd said: "Between him [Owen] and her [Cristina], it’s going to get really complex and kind of tense and explosive."[17] Owen and Cristina have experienced roadblocks in their fictional relationship, and continue to. McKidd offered this insight on his character's relationship with Cristina:
“ It's not going to be easy for them. What I read when I read the season premiere, and this is just my take on it, is that it was very much two very analytical people, Owen and Cristina. They're very similar in a way, I think, as people. Two analytical people see each other over a crowded ER room and their eyes meet. It's almost more complicated, but on a really simplistic level, it's almost a love at first sight scenario that happened on the season premiere. And then, what we're seeing is the road to connect that back, because obviously the season premiere was before he went back to Iraq and this event has happened to him that's changed him. And so, they're trying to get that feeling back because there's obviously something really true and meant to be between these two people. But it's complicated right now because she's damaged because of what's happened to her, and he is certainly struggling with himself and the people around him and the world in general, and trying to keep himself together after what's happened to him. So, I think, it's exciting to see what happens with these two guys because, in a way, they're the two people you'd least expect to have a love affair, but it's happening to them and they can't stop it.[21] ”
McKidd has referred to his character and the character of Cristina Yang as "soulmates."[26] Speaking of Owen's PTSD storyline, McKidd stated: "What's exciting about telling this story with this character is that it's quite brave of ABC and Shonda [Rhimes], on a prime-time network TV show, to address a tough subject, and one that people don't necessarily want to hear about. But so far the writing room is handling it beautifully. They're not banging people over the head with it but exploring it in a sensitive and interesting way."[24] Owen and Cristina have struggled with their fictional relationship in season eight, leading to Owen having a sexual affair. Directly before the episode involving the affair aired, McKidd said to Entertainment Weekly: "The thing about Owen is that he tries to do things perfectly, and obviously, he messes up as the chief because you have to make these odd black-and-white decisions and sometimes you make the wrong decision. There’s a lot of stress in his life at the moment, so he’s trying not to let that affect his efficiency as chief."[27] Although the characters' marriage is tested, McKidd reported to The Hollywood Reporter: "I think they're meant for each other. I hold out faith in Cristina and Owen, even though they go to the darkest places out of all the couples on the show. It's going to get worse but it's going to get better soon."[25]
Reception[edit]
The character has received generally positive feedback from television critics. Weeks after Hunt's first appearance on the show, Matt Roush of TV Guide commented that "Hunt/McKidd is the most encouraging thing to happen to Grey's Anatomy in quite a while." He also added: "The instant sparks between him [Hunt] and Yang were electrifying."[23] On the other hand, Robert Rorke of the New York Post states that McKidd was brought in as Hunt to "boost the sagging fortunes" of the show's ratings.[26] Kelley L. Carter of USA Today, describes Hunt as "hardcore" and "the antithesis of the other males on the show."[28] Chris Monfette of IGN said that the fifth season of Grey's Anatomy was an improvement on the previous two seasons, attributing this in part to the introduction of "fresh, new characters", Owen and Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw).[29] He also referred to McKidd as "the season [five]'s best, most effective addition", adding:
“ Not only is McKidd an immediately likeable and engaging actor, his struggle with PTSD throughout the season – and especially how it impacted his burgeoning relationship with Cristina – proved both relevant and dramatically gripping. His interactions with Cristina were perfectly balanced for optimum drama, never together and never apart for so long that the back-and-forth became frustrating. Viewers could clearly see a softening of the typically hard-edged Cristina, a pleasant change for what had become something of a one-note character, as well as relate to Owen's internal struggles, shared by many a real-life war vet.[29] ”
Margaret Lyons of New York Magazine judged Hunt "too sad" for the first part of the ninth season.[30] In 2010, Kevin McKidd was nominated for the Prism Award for Best Performance in a Drama Series' Multi-Episode Storyline, and won the award.[31] In 2011, McKidd was nominated for the Prism Award for Best Performance in a Drama Series, for his work on Grey's Anatomy.[32] McKidd was nominated, along with the rest of the Grey's Anatomy cast, for Best Drama Series at the 21st GLAAD Media Awards, in 2010.[33] Also in 2010, McKidd, and the rest of the cast, were nominated for Outstanding Drama Series, at the NAACP Image Awards.[34] The same nomination was received at the 2011 NAACP Image Awards, with the cast winning the award.[35] At the 43rd NAACP Image Awards, in 2012, McKidd and the cast were nominated yet again for Outstanding Drama Series.[36]

The phrase shown in metal moveable type, used in printing presses (image reversed for readability)
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is an English-language pangram—a sentence that contains all of the letters of the alphabet. It is commonly used for touch-typing practice, testing typewriters and computer keyboards, displaying examples of fonts, and other applications involving text where the use of all letters in the alphabet is desired. Owing to its brevity and coherence, it has become widely known.

History[edit]
Item from the February 10, 1885 edition of The Boston Journal mentioning the phrase "A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
The earliest known appearance of the phrase is from The Boston Journal. In an article titled "Current Notes" in the February 10, 1885 morning edition, the phrase is mentioned as a good practice sentence for writing students: "A favorite copy set by writing teachers for their pupils is the following, because it contains every letter of the alphabet: 'A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.'"[1] Dozens of other newspapers published the phrase over the next few months, all using the version of the sentence starting with "A" rather than "The".[2] The earliest known use of the phrase in its modern form (starting with "The") is from the 1888 book Illustrative Shorthand by Linda Bronson.[3]
As the use of typewriters grew in the late 19th century, the phrase began appearing in typing lesson books as a practice sentence. Early examples include How to Become Expert in Typewriting: A Complete Instructor Designed Especially for the Remington Typewriter (1890),[4] and Typewriting Instructor and Stenographer's Hand-book (1892). By the turn of the 20th century, the phrase had become widely known. In the January 10, 1903, issue of Pitman's Phonetic Journal, it is referred to as "the well known memorized typing line embracing all the letters of the alphabet".[5] Robert Baden-Powell's book Scouting for Boys (1908) uses the phrase as a practice sentence for signaling.[6]
The first message sent on the Moscow–Washington hotline on August 30, 1963 was the test phrase "THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG'S BACK 1234567890".[7] Later, during testing, the Russian translators sent a message asking their American counterparts "What does it mean when your people say 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog?'"[8]
During the 20th century, technicians tested typewriters and teleprinters by typing the sentence.[9]
Computer usage[edit]
In the age of computers, this pangram is commonly used to display font samples and for testing computer keyboards. In cryptography, it is commonly used as a test vector for hash and encryption algorithms to verify their implementation, as well as to ensure alphabetic character set compatibility. Microsoft Word has a command to auto-type the sentence, in versions up to Word 2003, using the command =rand(), and in Microsoft Office Word 2007 and later using the command =rand.old().[10]
Examples of how the phrase is used in font display
Cultural references[edit]
Numerous passing references to the phrase have occurred in movies, television, books, video games, advertising, websites, and graphic arts.
The lipogrammatic novel Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn is built entirely around the "Quick Brown Fox" pangram and its inventor. It depicts a fictional country off the South Carolina coast that idealizes the pangram, chronicling the effects on literature and social structure as various letters are banned from daily use by government dictum.[11]
