INT. WALSH HOME - DAY . . 1

source 2

CREDITS OVER VARIOUS CLOSE-UPS of the goonies' HANDS and FACES as they perform the secret goony handshake.. It is a very poetic, beautifully synchronized series of movements which displays a sense of. kinship and brotherhood. We hear the VOICE OF MIKEY, reciting the GOONY OATH, over these images.

MIKEY (V.0.)
"I will never betray my goon dock friends, We will stick together until the whole words ends, Through heaven and hell, and nuclear war, Good pals like us will stick like tar, In the city, or the country, or the forest, or boonies, I am proudly declared, one of the goonies!"

FADE IN: CLOSE-UP. The leathery, bullish face of a JAIL GUARD. He SHOUTS.

GUARD
Feed time! :

CAMERA PULLS BACK. The guard stands in a dimly lit prison HALLWAY. Rows of JAIL CELLS stretch along the side walls. Crowded- with PRISONERS. The prisoners SHOUT and JEER at the guard. He removes his wooden BILLY CLUB. Giving a HARD RAP to the bars. It ECHOES through the prison. The guard SNARLS. .

GUARD
The longer you animals bark...the colder yer' lunch gets.

The prisoners SIMMER DOWN. The guard inserts a key into the MASTER LOCK. All of ‘the cell doors OPEN. SIMULTANEOUSLY. The prisoners RUSH OUT. HUNGRY. The guard SHOUTS.

- GUARD Single file. Single file.

The prisoners crowd into a LINE. They PASS the watchful guard, who taps his palm.with the threatening billy club. Two ASSISTANT GUARDS lead the prisoners into another hallway. Toward the CAFETERIA. When all of the prisoners have exited, the guard turns to FOLLOW. He PAUSES. Hearing a NOISE. .A CREAKING. The guard TURNS. He sees SOMETHING. At hallway's END. In the LAST cell. A DARK FIGURE. SWINGING back and forth. The guard WALKS to the cell. CURIOUS. CAUTIOUS. Hand GRIPPING his gun. He STOPS.

INT. JAKE'S- CELL - DAY ; A

The body of JAKE FRATELLI, a 33 year old excitable boy, * strong, muscular, with the face of a KILLER. JAKE is James Caan on speed. He HANGS from a rusty ceiling pipe. His belt is wrapped AROUND HIS NECK. His eyes are CLOSED. His tongue HANGS OUT. Face frozen in a GHASTLY position. His body SWAYS. An obvious SUICIDE. A NOTE is pinned to Jake's chest. The guard ENTERS the cell. He GRABS the note. READING it to himself.

~ GUARD "You schmuck! You really think I'd be stupid enough to kill myself?" (puzzled) Huh?

The guard LOOKS UP. Jake's eyes are OPEN. He is SMILING. »« VERY ALIVE. Before the guard can react, Jake quickly

lifts his KNEE. SLAM! Into the guard's JAW. The guard HITS the floor. OUT COLD. Jake BOOSTS himself out of

the noose. We see that the noose is actually attached to a CONTRAPTION that fits around Jake's WAIST. Jake LOOKS

into the hallway. Making sure the coast is CLEAR. He ~- begins to UNBUTTON the guard's shirt.

‘woman, with.grey hair and a MENACING, EVIL face. -She is

part Marjorie Main, part Jungle cat. Her son, FRANCIS FRATELLI, -stands outside of the car, holding a can of GASOLINE. Francis is a 3l year old man with dark hair and crazed eyes. He resembles Victor Jory as Injun Joe in the 1938 film "Tom Sawyer”. He has just poured a STREAM of gasoline several feet in front of the OFF ROAD VEHICLE. The cops have nearly CAUGHT UP with Jake. Guns DRAWN, they are

ready to SHOOT! Mama nonchalantly FLICKS her lit cigarette to the ground. The cigarette IGNITES THE GASOLINE. This creates a literal WALL OF FIRE between the cops and JAKE. Jake and Francis HOP into the car. The Off Road Vehicle DRIVES OFF.

Mouth's Father, THE PLUMBER, works on the pipes below. WE SEE THE ONCOMING CHASE through the kitchen window. But Mouth is TRANSFIXED BY the television screen. Mouth's FATHER screams.

: FATHER Turn down that goddamn T.V. and come help me with these pipes!

Mouth TRIES to turn down the T.V. but the volume just seems to get LOUDER and LOUDER, as the real chase blazes past the window over Mouth's shoulder, all of it UNSEEN by Mouth. SECONDS before the chase passes the kitchen window, Mouth's Father hits the WRONG PIPE. A GUSH OF WATER blasts through the sink drain. It DOUSES Mouth and SPLATTERS the window. This creates a CURTAIN OF WATER that BLOCKS Mouth's VIEW of the chase.

*12A EXT. STREET - DAY - 12A*

The Fratelli O.R.V. squeals down the street, rapidly overtaking:

A LARGE VAN. The elderly CAB OCCUPANTS (SIMON & SIMONE

SIMIAN) exchange a contented glance. Simon now looks at his side view mirror, his expression instantly changing to panic as: .

SIMONE
Simon, look out!

The van swerves hard right, allowing the Fratelli O.R.V. to screech around it. Now suddenly looming up from behind the right side: A POLICE PATROL CAR!

Simon swings the large van back hard left to accomodate the patrol car as:

A SECOND PATROL CAR starts to overtake the van from the left side! The van spins in confusion, blocking the road Sideways as A THIRD PATROL CAR skids to a stop in front of it, barely avoiding a crash. -

The OFFICER inside jumps out, heads quickly for the van cab.

OFFICER , This road only runs two ways pop, SO...

He suddenly stops as he hears FRANTIC POUNDING and AGONIZED SCREAMS from within the rear of the van! Rushing to the side door, the Officer starts to jerk it open as:

SIMON
Not Don't! Wait!!!

Too late! The door flies open and TWO HUGE GORILLAS leap out, decking the Officer in the process. Grunting and squealing with delight at their new~found freedom, they disappear around the corner of the van.

ANGLE ON FAR SIDE OF VAN

The dazed Officer rounds the van in pursuit, scratches his gead, puzzled. The Gorillas have disappeared. In b.g. we now see, printed on the side of the van: BONZO THE GREAT AND HIS MATE, with a picture of them driving a_ small red car.

A neatly manicured putting green, part of an elegant country club.

TROY PREKINS and his FATHER stand on the green. In b.g.

a little red golf cart sits, holding their clubs. Troy hovers seriously over a putt, using the knock-kneed stance made famous by Arnold Palmer.

TROY
How's this, daddy?
MR. PERKINS
Don't lock your knees when you putt, son. Makes you look .like you have to go to the bathroom. Here. Watch me...

ANGLE ON BUSHES

The two Gorillas emerge from the bushes, now catching sight of the red golf cart. Eyes dancing with delight, they circle it curiously, then hop in as:

BACK TO GREEN |

Troy has heard something, wheels in-time to see the Gorillas take off in the cart: His jaw drops in disbelief.

TROY
Daddy...daddy! Two huge hairy things just stole our cart!

Mr. Perkins spins aréund. The cart with the Gorillas is disappearing into the distance. He squints after it, enraged.

MR. PERKINS

Hairy things, my ass! That's George

and Ethel Higgenhottom! I'd recognize

them anywhere! .

BRAND (0.S.
Really? ( )

Mikey TURNS from the window. His brother, BRAND, hangs UPSIDE DOWN from a chinningy bar. In the BACKGROUND. He is attached to the bar by METAL ANKLETS. Brand looks NOTHING like Mikey.. Brand is a HANDSOME, MUSCULAR youth. A JOCK. His eyes are deep BLUE. His hair DIRTY BLONDE. He wears gym shorts and a half T-shirt over his TANNED BODY. Mikey gives an HONEST SIGH, letting his TRUE feelings through.

...dictate? BRAND "Delude" yourself. MIKEY Yeah. BRAND

I know how ya' feel,-wimp. I sure am gonna miss.this place.

CAMERA FOLLOWS Mikey inside the house. We are in the RECREATION ROOM of the Walsh home. CLUTTERED middle class. Sears and Roebuck FURNITURE. Montgomery Ward TELEVISION. J.C. Penney OIL PAINTINGS. Mikey SITS on the sofa. He OPENS a "MAD MAGAZINE" to the back cover. Mikey STARES at Al Jaffee's "FOLD IN". Mikey sits, trying to FIGURE out the Fold In. He REPEATS the answer to himself. He then FOLDS the magazine together. He has GUESSED the correct answer. He TOSSES the magazine on the floor. Mikey STARES. DEPRESSED.

CLARKE "MOUTH" DEVEREUX cnters. Mouth is the group 28 PRANKSTER. A CLOWN. A 15 year old RICH LITTLE. TALL. GAWKY. CURLY, unkempt hair. A HOMELY kid. He wears a blue plumber's SHIRT, JEANS, and SNEAKERS. Across his shirt's back, bright yellow letters spell out: "DEVEREUX'S PLUMBING". His shirt is still SOAKING WET’ from the earlier Plumbing fiasco. A WRENCH, SCREWDRIVER and other PLUMBING TOOLS poke out of his back pocket. Mouth has a perpetual SMIRK on his face. A devilish GLEAM in his eye. He looks around the room, noticing the feeling of DEPRESSION in the air. Mouth tries to LIVEN things up.

MOUTH

Brand reaches out to HIT Mouth. Mouth JUMPS BACK. out of Brand's REACH. They are INTERRUPTED by the sound of a ringing GATE BELL. Mouth TURNS.

MOUTH
Jerk alert!

Mouth POINTS to the SLIDING GLASS DOORS. LAWRENCE "CHUNK" COHEN is OUTSIDE of =he gate. He is RINGING the bell. Chunk is 14 years old. PUDGY. CLUMSY. Chunk is a chronic LIAR, the king of FIBS.

It's obvious that Mouth WON'T let Chunk inside. Chunk SIGHS. He LIFTS up his SHIRT. Chunk EXPOSES his soft, pudgy midsection. Chunk begins to TWIST and SHAKE. His belly JIGGLES. Mouth is bent over with LAUGHTER. Mikey is not AMUSED. He RUNS to the window, GLARING at Mouth.

MIKEY
Cut it out, Mouth.

Mikey OPENS the window. He drops a STONE out of the window. In RUBE GOLDBERG fashion, the rock causes a chain of events that make the gate open for Chunk. Chunk HURRIES through ee gate. He ENTERS the house and EXCITEDLY looks at the oys.

CHUNK
You guys shoulda’ seen it...cop cars...chasin' this four wheel deal ..it was the most amazing thing I ever saw!
MIKEY
More amazing than the time Michael Jackson came over to your house to use the bathroom?
MOUTH
More amazing than the time you ate “your weight in Straw Hat pizza?
BRAND
More amazing than the time you saved those old people from that nursing home fire?
CHUNK
Honest you guys. This time it's for real. “

NO ONE believes Chunk. Suddenly, we HEAR the JAMES BOND THEME! It ECHOES from outside. With that, as if it were . + some sort of ritual, Mikey STANDS and opens the window.

BACKPACK and FLOWING WHITE CAPE. His dark eyes are 29 PIERCING. INTELLIGENT. Data sees himself as Agent 007.

Data STANDS on the window of his home. He has ATTACHED. himself to a clothes line that CONNECTS Mikey's house to Data's. A LARGE PORTABLE CASSETTE player is STRAPPED to Data's chest. The Bond Theme BLARES from the cassette. Data FLIES from his house to Mikey' s. He SHOOTS through the open window, and FALLS into Mikey, who shoots back, - colliding with the bottom half of upside-down Brand, who in turn arcs up, Clunking Chunk. Chunk FALLS BACKWARDS and KNOCKS a miniature MARBLE REPLICA of Michaelangelo's DAVID to the floor. The statue lands with a THUD! Chunk NERVOUSLY picks up the statue. It seems to be in ONE PIECE.

But he is met with a SHOCKING SIGHT. The statue's penis has

CRACKED OFF. Mikey gives himself another SHOT of Promtene Mist, and picks up the broken statue. He HOLDS the statue in one hand and the penis in the other. Mikey PANICS, holding out the broken penis’ high in the air.

MIKEY
Oh my God! This is my Mom's favorite piece!

Glasses of death! He opens his JACKET and REMOVES the cassette player. Inside of his shirt, is a CRUDE DEVICE that is covered with different CORDS. Attached to the cords are SMALL, COLOR CODED PLASTIC RINGS. Data PULLS one of the cords. Two rubber tipped DARTS fly out of the sides of Data's glasses. The darks MALFUNCTION, pull off Data's glasses, and ATTACH themselves to the window. Angry, he SCREAMS.

DATA — Pinchers of peril!

(Cont'd):

He pulls ANOTHER CORD. A mechanical device, very similar to 30 the "chest buster" in "Alien", BURSTS out of Data's chest.

The device is PLASTIC, MECHANICAL CHATTERBOX TEETH, with a homemade super spring for super grip. It shoots forward

ACROSS THE ROOM. The teeth are attached to a thick METAL

COIL, similar to a SLINKY. The teeth GRASP ONTO the Walsh DRAPES and HANG THERE. Data TRIES to pull a few more cords. NOTHING works. Data is LOSING his temper, ready to EXPLODE. Mouth puts his ARM on Data's shoulder to CALM him.

MOUTH
Cool it, Double-Oh-Negative!
MIKEY
Yeah, Data. None a' your stuff ever works anyway.

BRAND
You want a breathin' problem? You got one!

Brand holds Mikey in a strangling headlock. Mikey is wheezing, coughing. Mikey struggles in the background. Brand finally pushes Mikey away.

Mouth, pondering something, looks at Mikey.

DARK. DUSTY. The attic is crowded with historical Cauldron Point museum pieces. They date from the middle and late SIXTEENTH CENTURY. There are OIL PAINTINGS, SCULPTURES, antique FURNITURE, COSTUMES, WHALING HARPOONS, PIRATE AND FISHING MEMORABILIA, etc.

A LARGE SKYLIGHT looms over. the priceless collection.

BLACK, RAGING storm clouds are visible through the skylight windows. The.oncoming RUMBLING OF THUNDER can be heard.

The boys enter through a TRAP DOOR in the floor. Brand is FIRST.. He shines his.FLASHLIGHT through the attic. The “others FOLLOW. Mikey is the last to clumb inside. He sees the attic for the FIRST TIME. SHOCKED. AMAZED. All of the boys stare wide eyed at the roomful of items.

MOUTH
I can't believe somethin' this cool is in your house.
CHUNK
Yeah. We only keep old Christmas decorations in our attic.

THUNDERCRACK! A FLASH OF LIGHTENING. From the skylight a mosaic of rain patterns slowly dances across the Goonies.

You shut up about that elevator! You understand? Huh?

Mikey forces a nod. Wheezing. Brand releases his grip. Mikey LIES on the floor. Catching his breath. MIKEY Can we go now? It's dusty up here. My hay fever's actin' up.

Brand leads Mikey and the others on a trek through the attic. Mikey follows. Suddenly, a HIGH PITCHED VOICE INTERRUPTS.

, MOUTH (0.S.)

Mikey...Oh, Mikey...You're such a

cute little boy.:.Come and kiss me... The boys turn to the direction of the voice. It ECHOES from behind the tattered OIL PAINTING of the naked woman and Pirate Captain. A TONGUE juts out of a tear in the woman's mouth, LASCIVIOUSLY licking its lips. Mikey STARES. SHOCKED. Brand and Data SHARE a chuckle. Suddenly, a FINGER pops out of each of the woman's nipples. The fingers twist and turn. Creating a bizarre image. Mouth calls out, again imitating a woman. -

MOUTH (0.S.) .
Come here, Mikey. Make me feel like a woman. MIKEY

Stop bein' so perverted, Mouth. You're wreckin' the painting.

Mouth's head POPS UP from behind the painting.

MOUTH
Easy, dude. It was already trashed.

The kids continue WALKING through the attic. They INVESTIGATE the various ITEMS.

- CHUNK... What's all this stuff?

MIKEY
The museum did some kinda' show...ya' know...'bout the history of our town...It was called...ah...Mmmm...A ratropack? ‘
BRAND
Retrospective.

; MIKEY 37 Yeah. Anyway...these are the rejects. CHUNK

Kinda' like us. Mikey SHRUGS.

The boys RUMMAGE through the items. Each of the boys GRABS a particular piece of Pirate CLOTHING or EQUIPMENT. Mikey puts on an EYE PATCH. Mouth and Data find large PIRATE HATS with feathers. Brand GRABS a SWORD. Chunk puts on a-Pirate COAT and SCARF. mo

As the boys continue to investiage, Data stares in awe.

DATA ” Just think of it...All this stuff belonged to guys who walked on the same ground that we do...went swimmin' in the same Ocean, breathed the same air...

CHUNK .
Yeacchhh. They had to breathe the Herring Factory air too?
DATA
Naw...they didn't have herring then. This was right after Christopher Columbus...the 16th century...they only had ships. They were adventure guys and explorers...they made maps and captured Indians and spent all their time killin' each other with swords...ya' know...Errol Flynn stuff. .

Mikey flips through a collection of framed portraits and photographs, He SPOTS something that catches his interest.

A FRAMED MAP. But the map is impossible to read. It is covered by a YELLOWED, DUSTY PIECE OF GLASS. Mikey tries to remove the FRAME. Won't budge. He TURNS over the map. The back is covered by a sheet of WOOD.-. There is only one way to read the map: Break the glass. Mikey can't bring himself to do it.

He sees Chunk STRUGGLING to remove a paint can from his 37 foot. Mikey SMILES. An IDEA.

Mikey holds out the map to Chunk.

MIKEY
Hey, Chunk...hold this for me.

Chunk gives a NOD. He takes the map from Mikey. Mikey turns. Pretending to examine another framed picture. WAITING. Within a matter of seconds Chunk loses his balance. He drops the map. It hits the floor. Its glass covering shatters into a million pieces. Mikey picks up the map. He feigns an ANGRY look at Chunk.

, MIKEY — Can't you do anything right?

Chunk gives an embarrassed shrug.

Mikey picks up the map. He removes a few small remaining pieces of glass. The map easily slides out of the frame. Along with a small, golden DOUBLOON that is fixed in the map's frame. Mikey studies the map and the doubloon. The map is now completely visible. It is beautifully detailed. ELABORATE. HAND PAINTED. All of the writing on the map is. in SPANISH. The map is signed "ONE EYED WILLY"! Mikey — STARES at the signature. There is an intricate drawing of a coastline. The coastline leads to a mountainous cliff. Below the cliff is a large "X". CAMERA DOLLIES TOWARD THE x",

Mikey is FASCINATED by the.map. Brand suddenly grabs the map out of Mikey's hand. The other guys gather around, all wearing various pieces of Pirate clothing and equipment. Chunk looks over Mikey's shoulder, studying the Doubloon.

Chunk HITS Mouth. Mouth gives an OBNOXIOUS CACKLE and SHRUGS. He translates again.

MOUTE
"Ye Intruders beware Crushing death and grief, Seaked with blood, of the trespassing thief”

Everyone gives Mouth a puzzled look. Mouth raises his hand in the BOY SCOUT PLEDGE. He's TELLING THE TRUTH.

DATA
That map's old news. Everybody and his Grandfather want after that thing when our parents were our ages. Didn't ya' ever hear of that Pirate gay? ‘One Eyed Willy"?...

MIKEY * Hey! One Eyed Willy! He was the biggest pirate of his time! My Dad told me all about him one night.

BRAND ® Yeah. Dad'1l tell you anything to get you to go to sleep.

MIKEY _ * (ignoring him, to others) _ He had milliona in treasure, see, but the King sent his ships after him. So Willy took his ship, called: the INFERNO, and ducked into this cave to hide. But the King's men sealed him up inside it with cannon fire.

Mikey arrives at the top. Data and Chunk are BEHIND hin, followed by Mouth. They stand on the EDGE of the hill. They are met with a SURPRISING SIGHT. BELOW the boys, on the opposite side of the hill, is a tiny AREA OF LAND. A MINI-PENNINSULA. Thrashing ocean waves and jutting rocks surround the grassy penninsula. A small CEMETARY is built om a small section of land. POTTER'S FIELD. Crowded with old, crooked, GRAVESTONES. Built BESIDE the cemetary is

‘EXT. LIGHTHOUSE LOUNGE - DAY | 57

A rectangular, ONE STORY building. RUN DOWN. DISTORTED by the years. Its white wood exterior is CRACKED AND ROTTING. The building is CROOKED. Its windows TWISTED and DIRTY. A broken red and green NEON SIGN hangs over the building. A TALL, CROOKED LIGHTHOUSE is built beside the building. An OPEN=CLOSED sign hangs in the front door window. The heavy

Wind BLOWS the sign. SPINNING it around. We AREN'T CERTAIN

if the place is open or closéd. SHADOWS pass by the dirty Windows. There is a SINISTER, EERIE quality to this place.

Mikey STARES. In AWE. MUMBLING to himself, he excitedly

looks at the map. But the map seems to END. Mikey is PUZZLED. He suddenly gets an idea. He FOLDS the map like a MAD MAGAZINE back cover. To Mikey's delight, the folded Pieces form another MAP. Mikey REMOVES the doubloon from his pocket. When he PLACES the doubloon over the map, everything appears to be more CLEAR. He gets everyones ATTENTION, pointing to the map.

MIKEY
See this...here's where we are now.

Mikey POINTS to the "X" below the cliff. SMALL FOOTPRINTS

have been sketched on the map. They FORM a line from the bottom of the hill to the "xX".

This is where the rich stuff's buried...

Down there some place.

Mouth reads the SPANISH phrase written beside the footprints.

MOUTH
"Six times five, Stretching feet, To lowest point, Get the treat!”

The boys PAUSE. Figuring out the RIDDLE.

MIKEY
Six times five. That's thirty.
DATA
Stretching feet...your feet stretch when you walk...

; MIKEY I got it! If we walk 30 paces...to the lowest point...we'll get the treat...the rich stuff! CEUNK

{gets a chill) I dunno...it's gettin’ late...My Mom's gonna be worried. Besides

.-What's that place doin’ open in

the fall? It'S only a summer place. Seems pretty creepy to me.

The kids suddenly NOTICE sométhing. They TURN to the lounge. A DARK CAR pulls into the driveway. TWO TALL MEN, wearing dark, business suits, get out, They WALK to the , restaurant door. ‘They ENTER. Data TURNS to Chunk.

- DATA “See. There's nuthin’ to be scared of. Two other customers are goin’ in. CHUNK

Maybe they ain’t customers...maybe they're drug dealers or somethin’.

DATA 57
Drug dealers? Did you see their clothes? J.C. Penney Polyester. Drug dealers wouldn't be caught dead in those rags.
MIKEY
Data, did you bring your binoculars?

Data is frantically searching for the right cord, wanting to answer the call of duty. He mumbles to himself.

DATA
Yeah...binoculars...binoculars... {finds the right cord, nods and screams} Spy Eyes!

Data pulls one of his CORDS:from beneath his shirt. A mechanical device RAISES from Data's chest, with a pair of cheap opera glasses attached to the end. The glasses stop in front of Data's eyes. But when he moves to look through them, the glasses fly from their place and shoot forward. ce gives a shrug. Mouth looks over Mikey's shoulder at the map. :

MOUTH
So what made you think nobody ever followed this map before and made off with whatever's buried there?
MIKEY
They could've. But I never heard of anybody finding more stuff than alreadys in the museum. And anyway, to grownups, this is already worth enough. Somé arky-logicalists dig up a map that's a buncha' years old ...they throw a wooden frame around it, hang it in a museun, ane, call es art.

CHUNK
That sounded like gunshots. Not the big ones you hear in war movies, but real ones,
MIKEY
Gunshots! Jeeeezzz...Chunk, turm off your brain. Somebody probably dropped a pot in the kitchen!

Mikey CONTINUES to move forward. The boys FOLLOW. They are now a little SHAKEN. Eyes DARTING back and forth. A bit more cautious. They arrive at the front of the building. Mouth peers through the filthy FRONT DOOR windows. Mikey and Data walk to the side of the building. They try to LOOK inte the windows. ‘TOO HIGH. The boys spot a PILE of discarded ORANGE CRATES. They stand the orange crates on end. Climbing up onto then.

Chunk is INTERRUPTED by the SOUND OF A SLAMMING DOOR! The kids nearly JUMP out of their skin! They turn to the DIRECTION of the sound!

The SHADOW of a person stands by the restaurant door. The person has JUST CLOSED the door. They step FORWARD. INTO THE LIGHT. IT IS MAMA FRATELLI! We immediately RECOGNIZE HER from the earlier JAIL BREAK. She GLARES at the boys.

MAMA
How long you boys been at that — window?
MOUTH
(trembling)
L=L-L-LeLong enough to see that this place needs about 400 Roach Motels.

Immediately, Mama takes a strong dislike to Mouth. Chunk is

in the background frantically signaling and * mouthing...'dontt piss her off'. She LEADS the boys to a table. She CALLS to the back room.

(Cont'd}

Jake...we got customers.

We hear a LOUD THUMP from the back room. Followed by Jake's VOICE.

JAKE (0.5.) ;
Whattayou' mean customers!?! This ain’t no rest~

Jake pokes his head out. He sees the KIDS. He PAUSES. MUTTERING under his breath.

JAKE
Shit.

Mama SNAPS her fingers at her son.

MAMA ; Now go on. Get in the kitchen. Warm up the stove.

Jake RELUCTANTLY walks to the kitchen. He walks PAST the Goon kids. Jake GLARES down at: the kids. Eyes filled with ANGER. He enters the KITCHEN. The kids take their seats at a CROOKED TABLE. It is IMPOSSIBLE to eat a méal at this table. It is WOBBLY. DIRTY. STICKY. Set with filthy, YELLOWED dishes and RUSTY silverware. Mikey LIFTS his fork. It is attached to the table by a lony, gooey WAD OF CHEWED GUM. Throughout this, Chunk is trying to gesture and explain to the boys, but he is so excited, ONLY AIR comes out. Mama TOWERS over the boys. FROWNING down on them.

MAMA
Okay...we got a specialized menu here. We serve one thing. "Fresh Fish Surprise".

An angry Mama LEANS toward Mouth. She GRABS his tongue. BETWEEN HER fingers. PINCHING. She removes a POCKET KNIFE from her pocket. She MOVES the blade to Mouth's tongue. Ready to CUT.

MAMA
We got one more thing on the menu - «..LONGUE!
(a menacing smile} You boys like tongue?

The boys all SHAKE THEIR BEADS. SCARED. Mama catches herself. She MOVES the knife away. RELEASING her grip on Mouth's tongue. Mama smiles falsely, and walks back to the kitchen's SWINGING DOORS. Mouth COVERS his mouth. In PAIN. Mikey GETS UP from his chair. He begins to LOOK AROUND. SEARCHING for a spot on the floor, a trap door, anything that would indicate a buried treasure. LOUD ARGUING I5 HEARD from the kitchen. *

JAKE (0.5.}

But, Ma...this was s’posed to be our dinner...

MOUTH
Chunk, I'm startin' to 0.D. on all your bullshit stories.

A LOUD SOUND suddenly echoes through the place. CHURNING. BUMPING. WHIRRING. It sounds like a WASHING MACHINE gone BERSERK. The kids EXCHANGE a FRIGHTENED GLANCE. We hear the voice of a man SCREAMING OBSCENITIES. .On the far wall...A DOOR FLIES OPEN! A MAN STORMS OUT! It's FRANCIS FRATELLI .-

His clothes and body are SPLATTERED, STAINED by a DARK GREEN INK. He is SCREAMING. BOILING MAD. He is YELLING across the hallway to Mama, holding up his hand. A drawing of Ullyses §. Grant has been STAMPED onto his hand..

FRANCIS
How the hell am I stposed to finish up downstairs...with that piece of Smithsonian shit I got to work with?!

Francis sees the table of kids. STARING at him. Francis PAUSES. STARTLED. He COVERS the stamp on his hand and DASHES back through the door. As if he were caught doing something WRONG. We hear him latching several LOCKS on the deer behind him. The boys exchange another MYSTERIOUS GLANCE .

The KITCHEN DOORS SHOOT OPEN! Mama STRADDLES OUT! Sarr a tray of GLASSES in one arm. The metal CLEAVER in the other. The glasses are filled with RUSTY, ORANGE COLORED WATER. Small PARTICLES float in the water. Mama DISTRIBUTES a glass of water to each of the boys. They STARE atthe water's ODD color.

MOUTH

Mama TURNS to Mouth. RAGE in her eyes. Mouth starts pouring his water from one glass to the other. It sounds a little like going to the bathroom. This is driving Mikey crazy. He starts to bounce up and down on his seat, knocking his knees together. He excitedly whispers to Mouth.

MIKEY
Cut it out, Mouth! This is the sorta place that has Daddy Long-lega in the restroom.

The kitchen doors FLY OPEN again. Jake exits. He is wearing APRONS. Covered with BLOOD. His hands and arms are also STAINED with blood. He is carrying A HUGE STEAMING FOT. A lade] RESTS in the pot. He RESTS the pot on the table. LOOKING at the boys.

JAKE
Who ordered fish surprise?

Chunk nervously raises his hand. Jake ladels the GROTESQUE contents of the pot into Chunk's plate. The fish surprise

is made up of a black, JELLIFIED LIQUID. Loaded with FISH

HEADS and BONES. Chunk FROWNS. ;

MIKEY

With his usual wild hand gestures and expressions, Chunk is trying to convince Mikey NOf TO GO downstairs. Mama GLARES at Mikey. -

MAMA
Can't you held it? ‘CHUNK {agreeing with Mama} Yeah, Mikey...can't you hold it?!

Devilishly, Mouth pours a thin, noisy stream of water from one glass which he holds high above the other.

We will call him SLOTH. Only the LARGE OUTLINE of his shadow is visible. Jake stands OVER HIM. Holding the pot of FOOD. Sloth GROWLS at Jake. He HOLDS the -pot out to SLOTH. Jake speaks as if he were talking to a Doc.

JAKE ° Here, boy...You hungry? Want your supper?

Sloth GRUNTS. He holds out TWO ARMS. They come INTO THE LIGHT. The arms are THICK, MUSCULAR. Covered with CURLY BROWN HAIR. TORN, FRAYED shirt sleeves hang from the arms. HEAVY METAL CHAINS are attached to his wrists. They SECURE Sloth to the wall. His arms STRETCH out for the food. Like a STARVING child. Mikey WATCHES. EYES WIDE. SHOCKED.

Jake holds the pot INCHES from Sloth's fingers.

JAKE
Here, fella...this what you want? Your "Tender Vittles"?

Sloth’s hands try to GRAB the bowl. Jake PURPOSELY DROPS the pot. It SMASHES on the floor. The fish and broth are SUCKED into the dry cement. Sloth CRIES OUT. Mikey's eyes are SAD. SYMPATHETIC. Jake feigns PITY.

Chunk pockets the doubloon. We are inside of a large stone room. At one time used as a kitchen. The room is equipped with a giant freezer, two large stainless steel sinks, a Sparklett's glass water cooler, a stove and a stone fireplace. A tiny flame still burns in the fireplace. The only object that seems out of place is a large, black metal printing press. The press is ancient, rusty. A small window sits above the press. A phote of the Fratelli’s adorns the wall behind the press. The kids exchange a bewildered shrug. Chunk goes straight for the water cooler. Chunk moves his mouth beneath the tiny faucet. He turns on the faucet and lets the water stream into his open mouth. ~

Chunk grabs the freezer handle. He pulis hard. It's jammed. He pulls again. Still won't budge.

Brand is stomping on the fireplace ground. it creaks, cracks. The bricks crumbling. The kids curiously watch. He gives a hard stomp to the ground. A loud CRACK! Erand's foot shoots through; up to his knee. An opening! The boys help Brand out of the fireplace.

Suddenly, a loud noise rocks the room! Data has turned on the printing press. A freshly printed sheet rolls out of the press. The sheet is filled with perfectly printed counterfeit fifty dollar bills.

Andy TAKES Mikey's hand. Thé passageway has gotten WIDER. The kids can now walk UPRIGHT. The kids ROUND a corner and have made it to a POOL OF WATER. The water comes up to: their ANKLES.

Struck with goldfever, Mikey DASHES out ahead of everyone.

Ancient cannons jut from the side of the ship. Half of the ship is buried into the cavern wall. The result of a cave in. Hundreds of years ago. The kids continue to stare at the amazing Sight.

It continues to get bigger... Bigger...until...BOOM! It explodes! The sound sends a shudder through the ancient cavern! A small rumbling is heard. Tiny pieces of earth crumble from the cavern

mouth, Data removes his cassette player from his backpack. 163 He turns it on! Cranking the volume. The Talking Heads “Burning Down the House” blasts from the twin speakers!

Data throws the cassette player into the squid's mouth.

The squid reels back, letting go of Andy! The booming chorus of the Head's song reverberates through the squid's body. It trembles. Quivere. In shock. The monster

shoots away from the goonies. It is crazed by the rock n' roll. The squid wildly bounces off the cavernous walls, trying to make the music step. The squid inadvertantly does a comic dance, rocking to the beat cof the music and the

kids watch it disappear. Far into the cavern.

The goonies run to the pirate ship. Scared out of their wits. They arrive at the ship's bow. The gigantic ship towers over them. Mikey jumps up. He begins to climb the side of the ship. Placing his foot in the thin cracks of wood. The other kids hurriedly follow. Mikey shouts down to them.
