Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. A real estate agent with a dry sense of humor shows Meg Altman (Jodie Foster) and her daughter Sarah the house. What is his/her name?

Answer: Evan

It is only from the titles at the end of the movie that we learn he has a last name as well. His full name is Evan Kurlander. Lydia is the name of the agent the Altmans bring. Stephan is Meg's husband.

2. The previous owner of the house, a financier, died leaving his children and grandchildren to fight over the property. What was his name?

Answer: Sidney Pearlstein

Sidney Pearlstein was apparently a bit distrusting of his family, so he hid half of his fortune inside the house. Evan Kurlander is the real estate agent, Stephan Altman is Meg's husband and Diego Maradona is a former famous soccer player from Argentina, who has nothing to do with the movie.

3. The address of the house Meg buys for herself and Sarah in Manhattan is:

Answer: 38 West 94th Street

The upper West side of Manhattan (close to Central Park) is one of the upscale neighbourhoods the Altmans are seeking to buy. Sarah comments on this at the end of the movie when she reads the newspaper real estate ads to her mother. 10 Downing Street is the London address where the prime minister of the UK resides.

4. The moving company that transports the Altman's stuff has a name with a historical meaning. Do you know what it is?

Answer: Mayflower

On the "Mayflower" the Founding Fathers from Europe came to the United States in the 17th century to build settlements. They were the first 'Americans'.

5. Ok, an easy one now. How many monitors are there in the actual panic room?

Answer: 8

There are several cameras placed around the house, and each of them has its own monitor. The criminals don't think of disabling them, but Meg does when she needs to save Sarah and not to be seen. The brand name is Sony by the way.

Answer: Burnham

Junior is the grandson of Sidney Pearlstein. He hired Burnham who works for Manhattan Security (the company that installed the Panic Room) as well as a dangerous criminal from East-Harlem called Raoul. The actor that plays Raoul (Dwight Yoakam) is also a well known country singer.

7. Sarah is diabetic. But what is she wearing around her wrist?

Answer: "Glucowatch"

The Glucowatch is the latest instrument for diabetics to measure their sugar level. Instead of using drops of blood drawn from a finger on a test strip, this instrument can provide a constant read. It is however not (yet) widely available and said to be less reliable.

8. While sneaking into the house Junior gives their presence away by tripping over what?

Answer: A basketball

Although Meg has already spotted the burglars on the monitors, she realises how close they are when she sees Junior tripping over the basketball on the screen and then the ball rolling into the room.

Answer: By blowing gas into the room

Although Junior tried to persuade them to come out, it is Burnham who comes up with the idea to frighten them a bit by blowing a gas into the room. It is Meg who almost sets the house on fire by lighting the gas.

10. How does Meg respond to the method used in the previous question?

Answer: She uses a lighter to set the gas on fire

When the gas fills the room and Meg realises she can't block it, she sees only one way out: to set the gas on fire. As a result Junior suffers severe burns and is about to quit.

11. Meg tries to distract Sarah from what is going on inside the house by having her recite album titles of what pop group?

Answer: The Beatles

Obviously Meg must have listened to "The Beatles" quite a lot, as Sarah is born after John Lennon's assassination in New York.

12. The criminal known as Raoul gets injured as well. Who or what inflicts his first injury?

Answer: The door to the panic room

When Evan is showing the house, Meg is scared and her real estate agent Lydia calls the door a 'safety hazard'. However Evan shows them that the thick steel door is safe by waving his hand in front of the laser eye when the door is closing. But Raoul is not that lucky.

Answer: mad

Although Jodie Foster probably has to show some signs of instability in her character, there is no sign of this when she sets off to defend her family. Supposedly the impending divorce has made her a bit unstable.

14. At some moment Meg dashes out of the room to grab her cellphone. What brand cellphone does she reach for?

Answer: Nokia

I think it's a Nokia 8890 Meg is using, but it's distinctly a Nokia. Nokai, a Finish brand, sells most cellphones worldwide.

15. How much money is there in the safe?

Answer: 22 million dollars

Junior told Burnham the safe in the panic room holds 3 million dollars, of which Burnham is to receive half. After he gets injured and talks about walking away, it becomes clear there must be more in there: probably around 30 million dollars. Eventually Burnham walks out with 22 bonds, each of them worth one million.
