12. Q4 ID the song and the island
• St Catherine’s Rock off Castle Beach was a
Napoleonic fort that had been turned into tourist
attraction and until 1970s it was a zoo. Though as
of now it is off limits for the general public it
came into limelight earlier this year, where this
island was used to keep a special someone
imprisoned, which it obviously fails to.
• Now, as soon as the antagonist arrives at the
location he can been seen listening to a song,
which is very apt considering the childish sense of
humour he has. It helps establish the fact that
anyone would want to break free of that island.

because they were missing a certain ingredient which

of mass murder of all time. X is used by 4 people
