From Quiz The Trial of the Chicago 7

Answer: Indictments for those viewed responsible for the 1968 riots in Chicago

Five months after the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, U.S. Attorney Thomas Foran is asked to pick "the best prosecutor in his office" and attend at the offices of Attorney-General John Mitchell, newly appointed by President Nixon. Mitchell spends an inordinate amount of the meeting complaining about his treatment at the hands of the outgoing A-G, Ramsey Clark. "As a matter of courtesy and tradition, when we elect a new president, the outgoing cabinet members resign to spare the new president the unpleasantness of firing them. Richard, do you know when President Nixon received Ramsey Clark's formal letter of resignation?" Mitchell asks Schultz when he enters the room. "No, sir," Schultz replies. "About an hour before my confirmation," Mitchell replies. "That was to embarrass me. I don't know, I think it was more embarrassing for Ramsey Clark." The conversation turns to the riots at the Convention in Chicago the previous summer. Schultz details how the investigation initiated by Foran showed that no federal laws were broken by the rioters. "Our office wasn't aware that the Justice Department wanted to seek any indictments at all," Schultz remarks, before adding, "Ramsey Clark was dead set against..." He is interrupted by Mitchell. "Ramsey Clark doesn't run the Justice Department anymore, did you hear about that?" he says. He wants Foran and Schultz to seek indictments against eight defendants for conspiracy to cross State lines in order to incite violence, a Federal law that provides for a maximum of 10 years in prison. When Schultz expresses reservations about this strategy, Mitchell has him speak freely. "Sir, there are people who will see this as the Justice Department restraining free speech and there'll be people who'll see these men as martyrs," Schultz points out. "Are any of those people in this room?" Mitchell asks. Schultz answers in the negative. "You're about to be named lead prosecutor in the most important trial in your lifetime after being hand-picked by the Attorney-General. I'm about to do that right now. But before I do, let me ask you, how do you see them?" Mitchell asks. "I see them as vulgar, anti-establishment, anti-social and unpragmatic, but none of those things are indictable," Schultz replies. "Then imagine how impressed I'll be when you get an indictment," Mitchell says.

From Quiz Trial and Error

Answer: Nevada

The film begins in Los Angeles, but most of the action in "Trial and Error" takes place in Paradise Bluff, Nevada.

From Quiz Trinidad

Answer: Sex change capital of the world

Trinidad is a small city of about nine thousand, a population it has maintained for decades. It was a coal mining town for many years until coal lost its charm as an economic resource. Sex change surgery was difficult to obtain. Insurance companies considered it an 'elective' procedure such as plastic surgery. Malpractice fees were among the highest for surgeons. The procedures were in their infancy and adamantly primitive. But most devastating was the objections by social, moral, and religious groups. That began to change in 1969 when Mt. San Rafael Hospital took on the groundbreaking challenge. According to one resident in the film the hospital would have been shuttered long ago without the income generated by its unique cottage industry.

From Quiz 12 Years a Slave

Answer: playing the violin

Northup is an excellent violinist. We hear him play several times in the movie, but it is his violin-playing that gets him in trouble and begins his whole time as a slave. New York had been a free state since 1827, but Norris says in the book that masters from the south often brought their slaves up north, and that may be what's shown when Northup is shopping with his family, and a white man orders a black man to come with him out of the store, as if the white man has complete control over the black man. It would be the only taste of slavery that Northup has seen in the last 14 years.

From Quiz Troll 2

Answer: Half-man, half-plant

The film opens with a grandfather, 'Grandpa Seth', telling a story to his grandson, Joshua. The tale, about a young man named Peter who walks through a forest of cruel, deformed goblins whose modus operandi involves not needing to justify evil deeds, takes a turn for the worse when Peter comes across a seductive young woman who makes him drink an unnatural, green substance that turns him into a plant (and allows him to sweat chlorophyll green). She reveals herself to be a goblin, of course, and the creatures feast on their prey. Joshua is shocked to find from his grandfather that goblins still exist and prey on the innocence with "a veracity unequal to anything on Earth." It is at this point that Joshua's mother turns on the light to find her son still awake. When he says that his grandfather was just telling him a story, the camera pans out to show that there's no one there. Grandpa Seth has been dead for six months! To add insult to injury, Grandpa Seth is reading from a book called 'Davy and the Goblins', so there's that too.

From Quiz Trailer Park Boys : Countdown to Liquor Day

Answer: Stole a Department of Corrections vehicle

"Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day" picked up the chain of events two years after the television special "Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys", which aired after the television show's seventh and final season. Ricky, Julian and Bubbles had been sent to jail and, in "Countdown to Liquor Day", were released on parole. Bubbles was released during morning parole, and took the jail's bus back to the trailer park, hoping Ricky and Julian would be following in the afternoon. Julian was released after showing the parole committee that he'd completed a course in auto body repair while in prison, and convinced them that he would lead a legitimate life. Ricky was somehow released too, even though he told the parole board that he was going to grow marijuana for a living. Ricky and Julian left the jail, got on the bus by the front door, immediately got off the bus by the back emergency exit, and then stole a Department of Corrections van. Before returning home, they stopped and robbed a liquor store, to get some "start up money".

Taken captive aboard the Nautilus after its attack on the warship, Aronnax attempts to gain Captain Nemo's confidence and persuade him to share his secrets with the world.
