Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is Cyrus's nickname?

Answer: Cyrus the Virus

As Vince Larkin is giving the agents an overview of the prisoners boarding the plane, he introduces Cyrus Grissom as "Cyrus the Virus". Cyrus picked up this nickname because, as Vince Larkin states, "he's done it all". With all of his experience, Cyrus assumes a leadership role in the convicts' attempt at freedom.

2. What gift does Cameron give his daughter for her birthday?

Answer: A stuffed rabbit

At the beginning of the film while Cameron is still in prison, we find out that his release date is the same day as his daughter Casey's birthday. For the event, he gets Casey a stuffed rabbit.

3. How many years does Cameron spend in prison?

Answer: 8

When Vince Larkin speaks to Cameron's wife Trisha, she mentions that Cameron has been "waiting for this day for 8 years". Cameron was sentenced to eight years in prison after killing a man while defending his wife in a drunken brawl.

4. Why does Cameron decide to remain on the plane even though he is given the chance to get off in Carson City?

Answer: He doesn't want to leave his ill friend behind.

Cameron's friend "Baby-O" goes into insulin shock because he isn't able to get his shot when the convicts take over the plane. In order to save his friend from a certain death, Cameron decides to stay on the plane, despite the fact that he is a free man. He tells Cyrus he has 15 years left to serve to avoid any suspicion.

5. Whose body is dumped from the plane after the convicts depart Carson City?

Answer: Pinball

After the plane departs Carson City, "Swamp Thing" (who at this time is serving as the new pilot) complains that the plane is dragging. Cyrus instructs Diamond Dog to check the landing gear, and Diamond Dog summons Cameron to help him. When they go down and check out the landing gear, they discover Pinball's body. Pinball missed the departing plane (he was distracted when he met a woman in the airplane hanger) and was trapped in the landing gear as he attempted to catch his ride out of Carson City.

6. What was Cameron's position in the military before he went to prison?

Answer: Ranger

Cameron's position as a Ranger is mentioned a few times throughout the movie. The most memorable time it's mentioned is when Baby-O reminds Cameron that he's no longer a Ranger - he's a convict.

7. Which of the convicts was serving consecutive life sentences for murdering 30 people?

Answer: Garland Greene

When Garland Greene boards the plane in Carson City, Baby-O tells Cameron that Greene murdered 30 people before being captured.

8. How does Cyrus find out that Cameron is really a free man?

Answer: Diamond Dog finds a letter Casey wrote to her father indicating his release date.

Before the plane lands at Lerner Airfield, Billy Bedlam finds Cameron's parole letter in a box containing Cameron's personal effects. Cameron catches him going through the box, Billy confronts him about the letter and the two get into a confrontation. Cameron kills Billy in self-defense, so Billy doesn't have a chance to show Cyrus the letter.

After the plane departs from Lerner Airfield, Diamond Dog finds a letter Casey wrote to Cameron indicating his release date and shows it to Cyrus.

9. How did Johnny get the nickname "Johnny 23"?

Answer: He was convicted of 23 counts of rape

When Cyrus inquires about the reason behind Johnny 23's nickname, Johnny shows him the 23 hearts tattooed on his arm - one for each of the women he was convicted of raping.

10. What important event falls on the same day as Cameron's July 14th release date?

Answer: His daughter's birthday

Cameron's release date is July 14, the same day as his daughter Casey's birthday.
