FADETO BLACK:

lA INT. JAIL - CELL BLOCK- DAY lA

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

CAMERA PULLSBACK. The guard stands in a dimly litprison HALLWAY.Rows of JAIL CELLSstretch along the sidewalls. Crowded-with PRISONERS. The prisoners SHOUT and JEER atthe guard. He removeshis wooden BILLY CLUB. Giving a HARDRAP to the bars. It ECHOESthrough the prison. The guard SNARLS.

The prisoners SIMMERDOWN. The guard inserts a key intothe MASTER LOCK. All of'thecell doors OPEN. SIMULTANEOUSLY. The prisoners RUSHOUT. HUNGRY. The guard SHOUTS.

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

2 REV:10-23-84

Outsideof the OPENcell door. He PEERSinside. He is met with a SHOCKINGSIGHT.

The bodyof JAKE FRATELLI, a 33 year oldexcitable boy, * strong,muscular, with the face of a KILLER. JAKE is James Caan on speed.He HANGS from a rusty ceilingpipe. His belt iswrapped AROUND HIS NECK. His eyes areCLOSED. His tongueHANGS OUT. Face frozen in a GHASTLYposition. His body SWAYS. An obvious SUICIDE. A NOTEis pinned to Jake's chest. The gμard ENTERSthe cell. HeGRABS the note. READINGit to himself.

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

The guardLOOKS UP. Jake's eyes are OPEN. He is SMILING. * VERYALIVE. Before the guard can react, Jake quickly liftshis KNEE. SLAM! Into the guard's JAW. The guard HITS the floor. OUTCOLD. Jake BOOSTS himself outof thenoose. We see th,atthe noose is actually attachedto a CONTRAPTIONthat fits around Jake's WAIST. Jake LOOKS into thehallway. Making sure the coast is CLEAR. He beginsto UNBUTTON the guard's shirt.

Jake RUNSfrom the jail. A blaring ALARM sounds! A GROUP* OF GUARDSrun out of the prison, in PURSUITof Jake. CAMERA PANS TO a waitingBLACK,nondescript, OFF ROAD VEHICLE. Leaning outthe w±ndow of the driver's side, puffing on a cigarette,is MAMA FRATELLI. She is a 56 year old, heavyset woman, with.greyhair and a MENACING, EVIL face. ·She is part MarjorieMain, part Jungle cat. Her son, FRANCIS FRATELLI,-standsoutside of the car, holding a can of GASOLINE. Francis is a 31 year old man with dark hair and crazed eyes. He resembles Victor Jory as Injun Joe in the 1938 film "TomSawyer". He has just poured a STREAM of gasoline severalfeet in front of the OFF ROAD VEHICLE. The cops have nearlyCAUGHT 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 literalWALL OF FIRE between the cops and JAKE. Jake and FrancisHOP into the car. The Off Road Vehicle DRIVESOFF.

MamaDRIVES. PANICKED. UPSET. She CHECKS the rearview mirror. A second policecar joins the chase. The Police areGAININGon them.

THE POLICE CARSFOLLOW. IN HOT PURSUIT down the steephill.

takes a SHORTCUT, through a STOP N' SNACK PARKING LOT. The O.R.V. nearly HITS a Mexicanwoman, ROSALITA. She is ASKING DIRECTIONS from the storeowner, an elderly woman named SYLVIAKEESTER. Rosalita we.tchesin SHOCK as the two police cars shoot past her. InPURSUITof the O.R.V.

The CHASEcontinues throughA RESIDENTIAL SECTION of town. CAMERA PANSTO ONEPARTICULAR HOUSE, SEVERAL FEET AWAY. We DOLLY INTO THE KITCHENWINDOW.

MOUTH sits on the kitchensink, watching an old BLACKand WHITEMOVIEon T.V. Severalcop cars CHASEJames Cagney's car, complete with POLICE SIRENS and FLYINGBULLETS. Mouth's Father, THE PLUMBER,works on the pipes below. WE SEE THE ONCOMING CHASEthrough the kitchen window. But Mouth is TRANSFIXED by thetelevision screen. Mouth's FATHER screams. ·'

Mouth TRIES to turn down theT.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 chasepasses the kitchen window, Mouth's Father hits the WRONG PIPE. A GUSHOF WATER blasts through the sink drain. It DOUSESMouth and SPLATTERS the window. This creates a CURTAIN OF WATERthat BLOCKS Mouth's VIEW of the chase.

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

Too late!The door flies open and TWO RUGE GORILLAS leap out,decking the Officer in the process. Gruntingand squealingwith delight at their new-found freedom,they disappeararound the corner of the van.

Mikey FOLLOWS theguys OFFSCREEN.

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

A LARGE SKYLIGHT loomsover. thepriceless collection. BLACK,RAGINGstorm clouds are visible throughthe skylight windows. The.oncomingRUMBLING OF THUNDER canbe heard.

Its glass covering shattersinto a million pieces. Mikey picks up the map. He feignsan ANGRY look at Chunk.

Chunk givesan embarrassed shrug.

Mikey picksup the map. He removes a fewsmall remaining pieces of glass. The map easily slidesout of the frame. Along witha small, golden DOUBLOONthat is fixed in the map's frame. Mikey studies the map andthe doubloon. The map is now completelyvisible. It isbeautifully detailed. ELABORATE. HAND PAINTED. All of thewriting on the map is in SPANISH. The map is signed "ONE EYEDWILLY"! Mikey STARESat the signature. There is an intricatedrawing of a coas.tline.The coastline leads to a mountainouscliff. Below thecliff is a large "X".

C'mon, Brand! What'sanother couple minutes gonna hurt? What if we find somethin'? Huh?

Mikey breaksaway from Brand andhurriedly opens the basementdoor. He motions forthe guys to follow.

Mikey leadsthe goonies down thedark, narrow stairway into thebasement. A distant SOUNDis heard. The RATTLINGOF CHAINS. A low GROWLING. The Kidspause, frightened.

Mikeyconti'nuesto descend. The kids cautiously follow. AnotherGROWL roars through thebasement. Louder, like an animal..The Kids stop again, scared. Chunk turns to Mikey.

The kidscontinue down the stairs. They arrive at the bottom. Mikey pauses. .Helooksat the others.

The kidsshake their heads. "No Way".

Mikeyleads the kids toward Sloth'sdoor. The frightened kidsstay close together. They move slowly,carefully, towardthe door. Meanwhile, Andy grabsBrand's hand.

Brandnods. He stays behind withAndy. They stand in

70 front of anotherdoor. A moment alone. Andy is 70 (Cont'd) shivering. Brand puts his arms aroundher. She cuddles· closer ·to him.Brand smiles to himself. Now's the time to make his move.

Meanwhile, theKids are only a few feetfrom the door. Eyes wide, scaredto death. Mikey slowlyreaches out. He grabs the doorknob. The Kids hold theirbreaths. Mikey twists the doorknob ...Sloth'sROARINGGROWLblasts from behind the door. Louder than ever! Itsends a shudder through thehallway. The kids jump back.

Brand, who isleaning to kiss Andy, inchesfrom her lips is interruptedby the group of kids fallingtoward him. The kids fall intoAndy and Brand throughanother door. The door bursts open. Everyone falls insidelike dominoes. (Resemblingthe "State Room" scene from theMarx Brothers', "A Night atthe Opera" ..)

The kids getto their feet. In the chaos,the doubloon has fallen from Mikey'spocket. It rolls on itsside, along the floor. Chunk grabs it, seconds beforethe doubloon . falls into adrain. Chunk pockets the doubloon. We are inside of a largestone room. At one timeused.as a kitchen. Theroom is equipped with a giantfreezer, two large stainlesssteel sinks, a Sparklett'sglass water cooler, a stoveand a stone fireplace. A"tiny flame still burns in the fireplace. The only objectthat seems out of place is a large,black metal printingpress. The press is ancient, rusty. A small window sits abovethe press. A photo of theFratelli's adorns the wallbehind the press. The kids exchangea bewildered shrug. Chunkgoes straight for the watercooler. Chunk moves·hismouth beneath the tiny faucet. He turns on the faucet and_letsthe water stream intohis open mouth. '

An excitedMikey grabs a fireplace poker. He finds a random spot inthe center of the floor.

Mikey raisesthe poker high in the air. He brings it down, hard on the concretefloor. Wham! The pokerdoesn't make a dent! Instead,it sends a reverberating sleekthrough Mikey's body. His teeth even begin to chatter.

Brand.shakeshis head.

BRAND

You surewe're not adopted? Are we

from thesame family? (glancesto Andy, who desperately wants to lea~) c•mon,Mikey...you're embarrassin' me. There's nothin'.buriedunder here. Damn it ...Thisis the 20th Century.

Chunk's suddenmovement causes the Sparklett'scontainer to tilt. It fallsoff its base and smashes tothe floor into a million pieces. The water flows across thefloor trickling into theope·n fireplace. Several secondspass before thewater hits the fireplace bottom. Mikey pauses.

They listen to theslow trickle for a moment. Brand shrugs.

The kids .dash tothefireplace. Brand pushesMikey out of the way and reaches·downto pick up a log. He burnshis hand. Brand dropsthe log and lets out a yelp. Mikey looks at'"'Brand,shakinghishead.

Brand grumbles and takesoff his shirt. He wraps hishands with the shirt. He begins to remove the firey, hot logs from the fireplace. When all of the logs are removed, only

:iS

71 a sectionof black,rusted steel grating remains. Brand 71 (Cont'd) removes it. A few feetbelow, the fireplacefloor is lined with ancient bricks-andpieces of rock and earth..Brand shoves his foot intothe fireplace. He beginsto pounce on the bricks, tryingto break through.

Chunk is looking around. His eyes light. He's discovered the freezer. Hemumbles to himself, smiling.

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

Brand is stompingon the fireplace ground. Itcreaks, cracks. The brickscrumbling. The kids curiouslywatch. He gives a hard stomp tothe ground. A loud CRACK! Brand's foot shootsthrough~ up to his knee. Ah opening! The boys help Brandout of the fireplace.

Suddenly, a loudnoise rocks the room! Datahas turned on the printing press. A freshly printed sheet rollsout of the press. The sheetis filled with perfectlyprinted counterfeit fifty dollarbills. •

Everyone hurries toData, save for Chunk. He is still pulling at the freezerhandle.

Stef .comesupon a horriblerealization. She grabs the photo from the wall. .

Still pulling at the jammed freezer,Chunk calls backto the boys.

Suddenly,the freezer handle snaps! The freezer door 71 shootsopen! A DEADBODYstands there. Frozen, eyes wide open. ·It'sone of the TWOMEN INDARK SUITS who we saw enterthe restaurant earlier. The man is bound and gagged. An FBI badge is pinnedto his lapel. A bullethole is throughhis forehead. The stiffis halfway zipped into a green,plastic bag. The bodyfalls forward. Chunk jumps back. The stiff hits the floor. Slam! The kids let out a simultaneousscream. They dashout of the room.

The goon kidsrun down thehallway, frightened. They hurry to theupstairs stairway.

Suddenly,a noise. The kids stop. Dead in their tracks, at the footof the stairs. Brandmotions for them to "Shhh." We HEARthe sound of VOICES~ familiarvoices. Mama, Jake, Francis,back home. The kidspause. Breathless. WE HEAR thebasement door creak open. The kids look up to the top of thestairs. The long, menacingshadows of Mama and the two boysappear on the wall,heading into the basement. The kidsturn, sprinting to thecounterfeit room.

The kidsrun back inside, panicked. Mikey uses his Promotene Mist. Chunk is scared to death.

CHUNK: Mommy! Daddy! UncleWormer...!

Andy crossesherself. Chunk sees this,tries to cross himselfand instead outlines a Starof David over his entirechest and stomach.

MOUTH· -What're you doing?

MIKEY

Put him back in the freezer! Put

Mikey and thegoonies rush overto help.Chunk who is already liftingthe body to put itback up. Chunk stands in frontof the body. The kids standin back, lifting it up.

The voicesof Mamaand the boys aregetting_closer.

Sl'EF He's so cold! Andy, helpus!

The kidslift the body to its feet. They hurriedly push it into thefreezer. The clumsy Chunk stillstands in front of thebody. He is pushed into thefreezer with the body. The kidsclose and latch the freezer door. They run to the fireplace.

Chunk is frozen,face to chest with thecorpse. He tries to scream forhelp. He's too scared. Speechless. The corpse beginsto slide down ehunk's body untilit is face to facewith him.

Mikey leadseveryone into the fireplace. He kicks away a few looseboards. Mikey grabs one of the fireplacetools; a metal shovel. He motions for the kidsto crawl into the fireplace. One by one, the kids hurriedlycrawl into the passageway. Brand is hesitant.

MIKEY 75

Oh, yeah? Like theelevator.

Data opens hisshirt, searching for the.correctcord.

Two bright 8mmmovie projector lamps extend from Data's hips. They flipon, causing incrediblybright light. The goonies all covertheir eyes and scream. But suddenly, the lights fizzle·out. Data shrugs.

He removes alarge lantern. He flips it on. It illuminatesthe passageway. Brand grabs it.

All of thekids run off into the passageway.

Chunk is runningfor his life. He runs to theside of the

The car comes toa stop. Bright headlightsshine in Chunk's eyes,blinding everything in front·ofhim. A MAN steps out of thecar. We can only SEE theoutline of his shadow. He speaksto Chunk.

The Man motions forChunk to step forward. Chunk hurries to the Man. Chunk walksthrou~h the blindingheadlights. He can finallysee the car. His face goeswhite. It's the black off-road-vehicle,lined with countlessbulletholes. Chunk looks up atthe man's face. It's JakeFratelli. Chunk turns torun. Jake grabs him aroundthe waist. He carries the struggling,screaming Chunk tothe rear of the O.R.V. Jake opensthe false floor. Jake forcesChunk inside. Jake closesand locks the floor. He gets into the O.R.V. Francisis also here. He and Jake driveoff.

Chunk again liesface to face with the FBI corpse. Chunk is frozen with fear. -~

Brand moves forward,holding the lantern. The lightguides them through thedark tunnel.

The kids round a cornerand come upon an odd sight. A large cluster of twistingmetal pipes runs along the cavern ceiling. The rustedpipes dangle a few feet. They are obviously connectedto something several feet abovethe surface. Warm and coldlight seeps down from the surface surrounding thepipes. Stef nudges Mouth.

82 MOUTH 82 (Cont'd) Gas pipes,electrical, sewage,

plumbing,hot water, cold water, pressurepipes. ·

Mouth gives a nod. He pulls a wrench from hispocket. The other kids pickup rocks from the ground. .Theybegin to rap on the pipes.

•

The HillsideResident's private club.

The kids are goingwild; swinging, hanging from thepipes., using all of theiradolescent, athletic abilities. Brand hangs upside down from one ofthe pipes. Andy swings from pipe to pipe,not unlike a gymnasium's parallelbars. Mouth words hardat unscrewing one particularpipe.

THREE overweight,pink, CLUBMEMBERS are takinga shower.

The kids stillpull and swing from the pipes. The pipes are twisted and tangledout of proportion, leakingand spewing water. The pipes begin to move by themselves., Like slowlymoving pistons on an ocean vessel.

A MAN reaches outto turn down the cold water. Before his hand can touch it,the spigot is pulled into thewall! He pauses, puzzled. He reaches out for the hot waterspigot. WHOOSH!It is suckedinto the wall. The Man stepsback, frightened. The showerhead and nozzle above him ispulled into the wall. He looks around. Suddenly, one byone, all of the shower headsdisappear into the wall! The confused

87 members stareat the wall, theirbloated bodies covered 87 (Cont'd) with soap. suddenly, a fecidbrown backwash explodes from the holesin the tile, where thespigots once were. The backwashcovers the bodies of theclub members. They dash out of theshower room, scaredto death.

A TENNISPLAYER pauses, getting a drinkfrom a court fountain. The player moves his lipsto the fountain. The entire fountainis pulled down a few inches. The puzzled playerbends lower. The fountainis pulled down a few more inches. The player again bends lower. The fountain suddenlyshoots upward, knocking inthe the player's chin! The playerhits the ground, out cold.

The pipesare a moving, tangledmess of leaking, spraying water. Several shower nozzles,water fountains and various spigotshave been pulled underground. But the kids still have not givenup, still thinking they'vehad no contact with the outerworld.

Suddenly,all of the pipes beginto move faster, bouncing, becomingviolent. Steam and waterHISS and spray.

Troy goes'intoa stall as a low rumblingdin be heard. He dropshis pants and sits down on the commode. Immediately, an explosionof toilet water blasts Troyoff his seat, sendinghim crashing all the way up tothe ceiling.

The kidswalk away defeated, out ofbreath, sweating. Brand shakeshis head.

Andy kissesMikey. A long, passionate,open mouthed kiss. Stefwatches, realizing that it'sMikey. She hides her laughter. Andy finally stops. She leans against the wall,out of breath, eyes closed,in dreamland. A giant smilecovers her face.

A black,.skull and crossbonesflag waves. At half mast. The figurehead of a beautifulwoman adorns the ship'sbow. Ancient cannons jut from the sideof the ship. Half of theship is buried into the cavernwall. The result of a cavein. Hundreds of years ago. The kids continue to stareat the amazing sight. Speechless.

It is crazed by therock n' roll. The squid wildlybounces off the cavernouswalls, tryingto make the musicstop. The squid inadvertantlydoes a comic dance,rockingto the beat of the music and the kidswatch it disappear. Far into the cavern.

The goonies run to thepirate ship. Scared out oftheir wits. They arrive at theship's bow. The giganticship towersover them. Mikey jumps up. He begins to climbthe sideof the ship. Placinghis foot in the thin cracksof wood. The other kids hurriedlyfollow. Mikey shoutsdown tothem.
