Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Archibald Hamilton was found stabbed in his bedroom while he was sleeping peacefully. The Police Chief, Detective Monroe, is luckily on board to investigate. When he moves closer to Hamilton's body, he notices the dagger in his chest is from the victim's own collection of Ancient Olmec items. What country did the Olmec inhabit?
2. Archibald Hamilton's cabin was located in a hallway with four other rooms, each belonging to a Hollywood star. Detective Monroe calls on the room across from the victim's and it is answered by Academy-Award winning actress Jennifer Lawrence. "No, officer," she says. "I did not hear anything unusual. It is probably because I have an infection in that snail-shaped part of my ear. What is it called again?"
3. The room next to Ms. Lawrence's is occupied by actor Jesse Metcalfe. Before he can even make a statement, Detective Monroe says to him, "Hey, I know you. You're that gardener on 'Desperate Housewives' my wife went crazy for. I don't like you, but I do like the way your garden looks. Say, how do you get your Narcissus looking so wonderful?"
"I have no idea, sir," responds Jesse. "I am not a real gardener. I just play one on TV".
What kind of flower is Detective Monroe inquiring about?
4. The cabin to the left of the victim's belongs to U.S. Olympian Bode Miller. "I did see Archibald Hamilton earlier this evening while I was in the gym," he says to the detective. "He did not seem to be ill-eased or anything, but I wasn't paying too close attention or anything".
"I am sure you weren't," responds the detective. "It must be time-consuming training for all those gold medals you win".
By 2014, how many Olympic Gold Medals had Bode Miller earned in his career?
5. The final cabin in the hallway, to the right of the victim, is that of singer Shakira. "No, I did not hear anything out of the ordinary. How could I? I was practicing my samba. Did you know that the samba is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Masterpiece?"
Is Shakira correct?
6. The dagger is dusted for fingerprints and a match is found: Jesse Metcalfe. "Of course my prints are on it," he says. "Archibald let me touch it this afternoon right after we had a lunch of confit de canard".
What did Jesse and Archibald dine on?
7. "That is not the only interesting thing I have found," announces Detective Monroe. "I have uncovered this death threat addressed to Mr. Hamilton with the initials J.L. Care to explain, Ms. Lawrence?"
"I wrote no such note, detective," replies Jennifer. "I am quite successful without needing the lead in his awful movie. I never even wanted that role as the Greek Goddess of the Night".
What role did Jennifer Lawrence turn down?
8. "The steward has just informed me that moments before he died," says Detective Monroe, "Archibald Hamilton made a call to Shakira's room. Care to explain?"
"I heard the phone ring, but I did not answer it. Anyone who knows me knows how to get in contact with me. I assumed it was another fan. Some of them are out of control. One even followed me to my home country of Colombia. Another likes to profess his love to me in Dutch".
How does Shakira's obsessed fan say 'I love you' to her?
9. "Mr. Miller, would you care to explain why I found a pair of skis with your name on it in the victim's closet?"
"Well, it is none of your business, but Archibald Hamilton was a huge fan of mine so I had my fellow skier, Aksel Lund Svindal, send me a pair so I could sign them for the producer".
What nation does Svindal hail from?
10. "I would like to take a statement from each of the four of you before we go any further," says the detective. "Ms. Lawrence, we will begin with you".
"Don't talk to me in that tone of voice," she replies. "Or I will get my 'Hunger Games' co-star, Liam Hemsworth, in here to show you who's boss around here".
"Oh sure," says Detective Monroe snidely. "And you'll just have the author of those books come here and rewrite the plot of this mystery and present yourself as a heroine".
Who is the author of "The Hunger Games"?
11. "Mr. Metcalfe, you are next to go".
"You know," said Jesse. "I don't appreciate being considered a suspect either. If I was in my role of Christopher on 'Dallas', I would go straight to my father J.R. and he would take care of this in a second".
True or False: In the revised series 'Dallas', Christopher and his cousin John Ross both marry the same woman.
12. "Please, Shakira," begs the detective. "Make this easy on me and be nice".
"Oh, I know you are just doing your job," she replies. "After all this unpleasantness is over, how about I sing my hit song 'Hips Don't Lie'?"
'Hips Don't Lie' featured what other artist?
13. "Last but not least, Mr. Miller".
"Is that some kind of cruel joke? At the Sochi Olympics, I finished last of America's four skiers in the giant slalom. I guess it is fine because an American did win in the end".
So, who won the Men's Giant Slalom at the 2014 Sochi Olympics?
14. "I know which one of you did it!" exclaims Detective Monroe. "Archibald Hamilton was killed by a fan of his and it is one of you four. One of you slipped and made a fatal mistake just now, proving that you are not the celebrity you claim to be. You are just in disguise".
The culprit made an incorrect statement in his or her testimony. Who made the blunder and what is the mistake?
15. "Correct!" yells the culprit ripping of the disguise. "I am Jordan Little and I wanted revenge on Archibald for replacing me in his new film. But you will never catch me alive, copper!"
"Of course," exclaims the detective. "Those initials on the note stood for Jordan Little".
The killer runs out of the cabin, onto the deck, jumps overboard, and is immediately devoured by a Balaenoptera musculus. What animal just ate the killer?
