The Making of 'The Goonies' Page #3

---

Until the British king found out

about it...

...and sent out his whole armada

to go after him.

It took them a couple of weeks

to catch up with Willy.

Then there was a whole big war...

...between the armada

and Willy's ship, the Inferno.

During the firefight, there were...

...guns and cannons bursting

here and there.

Then Willy fled, because he knew

he'd get killed if he stayed around.

And then he got into this cave...

...and the British blew up

the walls around him.

He got caved in,

and he's been there ever since.

- Forever?

- Forever.

And ever?

Trapped.

You sound as corny as Dad does.

My dad tells the truth.

Know what he said?

He said One-Eyed Willy and his bunch

were down there for years.

They were digging tunnels and caves.

- Setting booty traps.

- Booby traps.

Setting booby traps so anybody who

tried to get in would die.

Then he killed all his men.

- Why?

- Why kill all of them?

So they wouldn't get his treasure.

Wait a minute.

If he killed all his men,

how did the map get out?

My dad said one of the guys must

have gotten out with the map.

- Hey, Mikey, I believe you.

- I don't believe you at all.

What did you break this time, Chunk?

Hey, you guys, look at this.

You ever hear of this guy?

Chester Copperpot.

Look what it says.

"Chester Copperpot, missing while

in pursuit of local legend.

Reclusive scavenger claims,

'I have the key...

...to One-Eyed Willy.'"

Wow, do you guys realize

what we could do?

Nobody ever found nothing.

Why would this map be in this attic...

...when it could be in some

safe-deposit box, right?

Right. If Chester Copperpot didn't

find it, how would we find it?

But what if? You guys...

...what if this map can lead

to One-Eyed Willy's rich stuff?

We wouldn't have to leave

the Goon Docks.

Come on, Mike.

I don't want to go on any more

of your Goonie adventures.

Where are you going?

You don't want to do this?

Jerk alert.

Can I help you?

Hello, little guys.

I'm Mr. Perkins, Troy's father.

We know Troy, he's a cheap guy.

My dad's not home, Mr. Perkins.

Is your mommy here?

No, she's down at the market buying

Pampers for all us kids.

Papers.

Well, you can give these papers to

your father to read through and sign.

We'll be by to pick them up

in the morning.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

- What is that?

- It's Dad's business.

But what is it?

I told you it was Dad's business.

Look at them smiling.

They can't wait till tomorrow

to foreclose on whatever it's called.

Trash the Goon Docks.

I hope they make our house

a sand trap.

And never get their balls out.

You know, I think they made me

lose my appetite.

Come on, before you catch a real cold.
