" He then hangs up, and in a suicidal gesture, drives his car off the cliff into a lake. His car is last seen impacting the water of the lake. It appears Heller resigned himself to committing suicide. Henderson goads Audrey by noting the possibility that Heller could have escaped from the car and survived.
