Back in the Fratelli's kitchen Chunk was still spilling his guts. "Then my mom sent me to... to a summer camp for fat kids. And that was third lunch I got nuts and I pigged out, and they kicked me out."

Back in the caves Andi was crying into Stef and Tara's shoulders, whilst the four guys were examining the skeleton. "Look at him." Brand stated reaching to touch the skeleton. "Don't touch it guys. You guys, now." "This is one of your tricks, isn't it One-eyed Willy?" Mikey takes a puff of his inhaler.
"You wouldn't have gone through all this trouble if you weren't hiding something, would you?" Mikey was talking to the ceiling of the cave. Any normal person surely would call him insane but The Goonies were far from 'normal'.
They were the social outcasts of their school, only hung around with each other and spent all their time together.
Meanwhile, Andi was still sobbing into her friends' shoulders. "I know. I know. So did I. It's okay. There's nothing to worry about." Stef tried to console her friend, whilst Tara was rubbing her back.
"You don't know. You don't understand." Andi claimed.
"Don't be afraid." Tara stated soothingly. "Andrea Theresa Carmichael does not..."
The boys were still examining the body. "He's dead for sure. I think he's Chester Copperpot." Data claimed, looking at the remains. "Chester who?" Mouth spoke at the same time as Mikey said. "Who?"
"Don't you guys remember? From the attic... the news article." Data jogs everyone's memory, at this time Tara had joined the boys as she heard the name. "Oh the news article, right." Mikey sighs, Tara crouches beside Mikey.
"He's right. They said the last guy who went looking for the rich stuff went in but never came back out." Tara recalled what she read on the article it made her skin crawl to think that this skeleton may be the same guy in the article.
"That was back in nineteen thirty five. Oh god, if he didn't make it out, and he was supposed to be an expert. What about us guys? How are we gonna get out of here huh?" Data cried.
"We can't be sure it's Chester Copperpot." Mikey claimed.
"Trust me Mike, I read it." Tara stated.
"I know it's him, I know, I read the article." Tara shook her head.
"I bet his ID's in his wallet. Mouth, get his wallet." Brand said not wanting to touch the skeleton. "Lou Gehrig?" Mikey wondered aloud. "You get it Mikey." Mouth said, terrified.
