Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. At the beginning of the movie, whose grave is General Hummel visiting?

Answer: his wife's

The name of his wife was Barbara Hummel. As he puts the flowers down, he also explains that he can now proceed with his plan to steal the rockets with V-X gas and kisses the grave right afterwards. The following scene depicts Hummel and his men, from the United States Marine Corps, breaking into a military base and stealing those dangerous weapons.
2. Why does Goodspeed receive his new Beatles album at work?

Answer: His girlfriend Carla thinks it's too expensive.

After Goodspeed receives it, his colleague and good friend Marvin is curious about why does he received it there, at work. Goodspeed explains that his girlfriend Carla doesn't like the idea of buying an LP for $600.
3. Which two Marines serve under General Hummel's command for the first time?

Answer: Frye and Darrow

Captains Frye and Darrow accompany Hummel for their first time, as is also mentioned by the General himself. Most of the other men have already served with him, notably Major Tom Baxter, who is his best friend. Hummel has seen combat in Vietnam, Grenada and the Desert Storm operation. Frye and Darrow are two of the toughest marines in the movie, determined to do almost anything to get their money and if not, kill the hostages and fire off the captured rockets.

At the end, both are killed by Doctor Goodspeed.
4. What does Mason use to break the glass, while he is being held in the interrogation room?

Answer: coin

The FBI tries to convince Mason, an imprisoned British ex-agent and the only man who has escaped from Alcatraz, to help them with the infiltration of Alcatraz. Mason suspects his long-time enemy, Womack, to be responsible for the operation. He thus moves to the glass, uses the coin to draw a little circle on it and breaks it with his hand only to discover the FBI director behind it.
5. What is name of the hotel in San Francisco that John Mason wishes to stay in?

Answer: Fairmont

John Mason agrees that he will help in the planning of the Alcatraz infiltration, but only if all of his wishes are fulfilled. After finishing his stay in the interrogation room, he says that he wants an apartment at hotel Fairmont, since it's one of the best hotels in the city, a hairdresser, shower and new suit.

He gets everything he asks for. The whole floor of the hotel is closed due to Mason's arrival. Enjoying his nice spacious apartment, Mason is always surrounded by FBI agents. This soon turns into a dramatic scene: he attacks Womek, escapes and is being chased down in the streets of San Francisco.
6. Which of these things does NOT happen during the car chase in the streets of San Francisco?

Answer: Mason calls the owner of the car he has stolen.

Mason escapes from Fairmont, steals a big Hummer and, literally, starts bringing terror to the streets of San Francisco. Trying to get rid of his FBI pursuers, he causes several explosions and almost knocks off innocent passer-bys. He is later caught while on a meeting with his daughter Jade, whom he hasn't seen for so many years.
7. What is name of the Navy Seals' member who is ordered to guard Mason during their mission in Alcatraz?

Answer: Shephard

Lieutenant Shephard (played by Danny Nucci) is a member of Navy Seals team under Commander Anderson (Michael Biehn). Right before the mission is launched, he is ordered to watch Mason for the whole time. He is the last one to get killed by Hummel's renegades.

The Navy Seal team under Commander Anderson is ambushed and massacred by Hummel's dog soldiers, leaving only Mason and Godspeed alive. These two later decide that they will cooperate and stop Hummel's diabolic plan.
8. The first rocket fired off from the island lands on which of the following places?

Answer: sea

The rocket is fired off, with the assumed intention to destroy the city, but as General Hummel has changed his opinion about the whole madness, it's later directed straight into the sea. Another one avoids the city as well, after being fired off by Goodspeed, who uses it to kill captain Darrow.
9. How is captain Frye killed?

Answer: a VC - gas bottle is stuffed to his mouth

Frye is trying to locate Goodspeed to get back the rocket chip and is suddenly attacked. A hard fight ensues, ending with Goodspeed stuffing one of the small VX bottles into Frye's mouth. Goodspeed then gets the antidote and runs outside, holding two flares in his hands, which represent a sign that all of the threats were eliminated and there is no reason to bomb out the whole area.
10. What is name of the person to which this movie is dedicated?

Answer: Don Simpson

Don Simpson, a film producer, was one of Michael Bay's good friends and team members and was cooperating on some of his movies. HE tragically died due to cardiac arrest from Combined Drug Intoxication (CDI) in January 19, 1996. The movie "The Rock" is dedicated to him.
