Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. (2003) We're a young rap group known as H2O Klick, and it's our murders that detectives Gavilan and Calden are trying to solve. They do find out that we were killed because we were trying to break our contract with Sartaine Records, but if they weren't so busy selling real estate, teaching yoga and trying to break into acting, they might have figured it out sooner.
2. (2001) My daughter has been living in a state of self-imposed catatonia for years, ever since she saw me being murdered. Now the guys who killed me are after her, because she knows where the ruby that I stole from them is hidden. They've kidnapped a psychiatrist's daughter, and are holding her hostage until he can get my daughter to talk.
3. (1991) My name is Martin, and my beautiful wife Laura killed me, just because I can be a little bit of a control freak. Of course before she killed me she staged her death and tried to escape from me, starting a new life without me. She had me fooled for a while, but a strange phone call tipped me off, and I tracked her down. She was very silly to believe that I'd ever let her leave me, but I have to admit that I was shocked that she actually had the nerve to shoot me.
4. (1991) My name is Jame Gumb, although the press referred to me as Buffalo Bill. That nasty Clarice Starling shot me, just because I was killing young women to make a suit out of their skins.
5. (2002) My name is Colleen Hess, and I was killed when a freak car accident left me pinned to a tree. I was able to exchange last words with my beloved husband, and those words might very well have saved his life after the aliens arrived. It was weird the way they left those massive crop circles first, for navigational purposes.
6. (1987) My name is Jim Malone, and I was a good cop at a time and place when most of them were corrupt. I worked with Eliot Ness in a select group that he drew together for the express purpose of getting the gangster Al Capone, and tearing down his empire. I was killed for my efforts, but at least I died with a clean conscience.
7. (1987) My death occurs before the movie begins, but it's important to the plot because it's my loss that turns my husband, Sergeant Martin Riggs, into a burned-out, suicidal cop that nobody wants to work with. His new partner, Roger Murtaugh, helps my poor Martin begin to heal, in this first in a series of movies that they make together.
8. (1992) My name is PFC William Santiago, and I was a marine based in Cuba. I had a hard time keeping up with the rest of the marines, so my commanding officer labeled me a screw-up, and ordered two of my fellow marines to rough me up to teach me a lesson. Because of my undiagnosed heart condition, things got out of hand and I died. Now the two guys who didn't mean to kill me are on trial for murder.
9. (2002) My name is Schmi Skywalker, and I was captured by Sand People. My son Anakin, who I had not seen in years, came to save me, but it was too late and I died in his arms. I was so thrilled to see him before I died, but I understand that he let his anger get the better of him because of what happened to me.
10. (1997) My name is Dick Stensland, and I was a dirty cop in 1950, who got kicked off the force. But I didn't mind that as much as I minded getting killed at the Nite Owl Diner, with a bunch of other people. The investigation into my death revealed a complicated web of lies involving hookers that looked like movie stars, and cops that were even dirtier than I was.
11. (2002) My name is Jamie Sullivan, and I am a minister's daughter. I also have leukemia, but my wonderful love Landon does his best to make the time that I have left as perfect as possible. At one point I made a list of all the things I wanted to accomplish before I died, and he did his best to help me accomplish as many as possible before I become too sick.
12. (1937) I am a queen, and I was the most beautiful woman around until that nasty little girl grew up. I told the huntsman to kill her, but he couldn't, and so it was up to me to do it with a disguise and a poisoned apple. But that wretched girl's friends chased me, and I fell off a cliff, plummeting to my death. What is the name of this pesky girl who caused my demise?
13. (2000) My name is Wilson, and I am a volleyball. For the four years that he was stranded on that desert island, I was Chuck's only friend, so when I washed away off the raft when he was trying to find his way home, he was devastated.
14. (1984) My name is John Pepys, but people called me Stumpy. I died in a 'bizarre gardening accident'. Becoming the first of a number of unlucky drummers that played for the band. One of my successors died when he choked on someone else's vomit, and quite a few of them just exploded while playing, leaving nothing but a little green globule behind.
15. (1954) My name is Anna Thorwald, and I was an invalid until my husband killed me. Then he cut me up in the bathtub and scattered my pieces around the city. It's a good thing that that nice man across the way was laid up with a broken leg, and was watching the courtyard out his window. Otherwise my husband might have gotten away with killing me, and no one would have been any wiser.
