Man on Fire Trivia Quiz

Answer: Mexico City

Mexico City was chosen as the setting due to its high rate of ransom related kidnappings. The situation had become so serious that many wealthy families purchase kidnap insurance; which in turn gives kidnappers more incentive.

Answer: Bodyguard

At the suggestion of his friend, Rayburn, John Creasy took a position as a bodyguard for a wealthy family living in Mexico City. His protectee was a precocious young girl named Pita Ramos who made it her mission to break through Creasy's standoffish exterior to reach the caring individual inside.

Answer: Swimming and Piano

Pita Ramos was a competitive swimmer who was fast in the water, but slow off of the blocks. Creasy worked with her to help ease her fear of the starter's gun. On the other hand, she studied piano only because her father had made arrangements for her to have private lessons with a prestigious teacher.

Answer: Piano Lessons

At her father's request, Pita took piano lessons from a very famous teacher in Mexico City. Creasy taught Pita a no-fail technique for getting her elitist instructor to ask her never to return; belch loudly every few minutes.

Answer: A Journalist

The female journalist worked for a Mexico City newspaper called "La Reforma". She had been covering the kidnappings for ransom for some time and suspected that corrupt police officers were at the center of it.

Answer: La Hermandad

Officer Fuentes allegedly led the effort to help recover Pita Ramos, when in actuality he and his men sabotaged the ransom efforts by hijacking the drop off of the money. Creasy learned about La Hermandad when he was asked to look through a book of mugshots that the anti-corruptions squad showed him after Pita's kidnapping.

Answer: He had already been executed by someone else.

When Creasy found out that Kalfus was involved, he went to his estate to pay him a personal visit. When he arrived he found Kalfus, decapitated, floating in his swimming pool. Information he found in Kalfus' office led him to yet another conspirator.

Answer: Her Father

Hoping to save his failing business, Pita's father, Samuel Ramos, arranged to have Pita kidnapped and then returned unharmed. When the corrupt police officers hijacked the drop off of the money, everything went wrong.

Answer: The Voice and La Voz

He was called the Voice because no one ever saw his face. He communicated with the members of his organization through a combination of beepers and cell phones. His location was kept a closely guarded secret, until it was traced by the anti-corruption squad, during his cell phone conversation with Creasy.

Answer: Yes

When Creasy captured The Voice's brother, and caused him serious, but non-lethal harm, The Voice knew that it was only a matter of time until Creasy tracked him down as well. To save his own life, and the life of his brother, he arranged an exchange. Pita's release for the release of his brother and Creasy's surrender.
