Cliffhanger Trivia Quiz

Answer: False

Jessie (Gabe's girlfriend), Frank and Gabe are on a rescue mission in the Rockies. Their friend, Hal, and his girlfriend, Sarah, were climbing and Hal injured his knee. Sarah was not an experienced climber and was hesitant about sliding across the rescue cable.

While she was going across, her harness began unraveling and Gabe went out on the cable to help her. He was able to grab her hand as the buckle of her harness broke, but couldn't hold on to her. She fell 4000 feet to her death. Gabe couldn't climb anymore because of what happened, and left for Denver shortly afterwards.

He returned eight months later to get his things, and ask Jessie to come to Denver with him.

Answer: paper money

Agent Travers is in charge of transporting $100 million in uncirculated $1000 bills, which are used for international banking exchanges, from Denver to San Francisco. Travers and the pilot of the plane are in on the heist with Qualen, but their plans are thwarted by an FBI agent who was hitching a ride on the plane.

The plan is to get the cases of money and the two men to a small plane by air-to-air transfer.

Answer: 3

On the plane, Travers and the pilot shoot the co-pilot, the other two treasury agents and the FBI agent. Travers gets to the small plane, but when the pilot is ready to transfer the cases, the FBI agent, who is still alive, shoots him and begins shooting at the small plane.

The treasury plane has been rigged to explode, and when it does, the cable with the cases flies free. Qualen and Travers hold on for a moment, but the cable breaks. The small plane has lost hydraulics and is forced to crash land.

Answer: Hal and Gabe

The weather is too bad for the helicopter to go up, so Hal climbs. Jessie tries to get Gabe to help as well, but he says no. He has a change of heart, and is waiting when Hal gets up there. Hal's not too happy to see Gabe again after what happened with Sarah, and the two have a few words. Hal and Gabe are led at gunpoint to Qualen, who shows them where the cases are on the tracking device.

They are then ordered to lead the group to the cases.

Answer: gets lost in an avalanche

While Hal, Qualen and everyone else waits on a ledge below, Gabe is ordered to climb up and get the first case. A rope is tied to Gabe, which is held by Ryan. After Hal hollers to Gabe to run because they're going to kill him when he comes down, Ryan and Kynette try to pull Gabe down with the rope. Gabe manages to cut the rope, but then another of Qualen's group begins firing up at Gabe, starting an avalanche. Gabe throws the case over the side of the mountain.

It opens when it hits a rock, showering the cash down along with the avalanche.

Answer: want to trade?

Gabe finds Jessie at the Douglas Shaft, and the two set out for the second suitcase. They leave a snowman of sorts with the case and the one $1000 bill. They take the rest of the money and burn it for warmth at Eagle's cave, where they spend the night.

Answer: No

Hal yells to them to run, but Brett is hit by bullets and falls down. Evan manages to run and get his parachute on, jumping off of the mountain before Qualen's men reach him. Frank finds him the next day, dangling from his parachute which is caught in a tree. Frank says over the radio that Evan had a bullet in his back and was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Answer: Kristel

After not hearing from Hal, Gabe or Jessie, Frank goes out searching for them. He sees a woman lying on the ground and lands to give her help. It is Kristel, who then takes Frank's gun. As Hal runs towards Frank, Delmar shoots and kills Frank. Travers has the tracking device for the cases and is the only one who knows the code, which he feels is what is keeping him alive.

When Travers gives the device to Qualen but refuses to tell him the code, Qualen kills Kristel so that he will be the only one who can fly the helicopter out of there. Ryan was killed when he went over the side of the mountain after a long slide with Gabe, Delmar was killed by Hal, and Kynette was killed by Gabe in the cave.

Answer: treasury agents

Travers is mighty angry because Gabe got to the last case first. When he mentions Qualen's name over the radio, Qualen tries to get him to shut up, but Travers won't. Walter Wright, the treasury agent who is the boss of Travers, is flying in a helicopter trying to find the wreckage of the plane. Wright recognizes the voice of Travers and they track the frequency.

At this point, Frank is already dead, and Gabe doesn't have a radio.

Answer: Jessie

When Gabe goes in search of the last suitcase, he sends Jessie for help. When she later sees the helicopter, she thinks that it's Frank, but it turns out to be Qualen. When Qualen calls for Travers on the radio, Hal answers that Travers went swimming to Arizona (Gabe has just killed him). Qualen then arranges to meet Gabe and exchange the money from the last suitcase for Jessie.

After Jessie is off of the helicopter, Gabe throws the bag up into the rotors of the helicopter, shredding the money. A showdown between Qualen and Gabe takes place on the overturned helicopter which is dangling by a climbing ladder. Gabe finally gets the best of Qualen, gives him safety instructions, and grabs onto the rock as the helicopter falls to the ground in a tremendous explosion.
