"That's not gold."Pope sighed
"Holy shit.This is from our dad."Evan whispered
All of a sudden,A vehicle started approaching
"Code red. Code red.Square groupers!Square groupers!It's the guys who robbed your house."JJ shouted as they hid behind a tombstone
"Light!"Evan shouted
"Light!"Kie shouted back
"Turn your light off, man!"Pope yelled
"John B?Your light!"Kiara whispered
"I see something!"The man yelled as the footsteps got closer
"Do you think it's them?"Kie questioned
"Homie's got a gun."JJ whispered
"Screw this."Kie muttered,the crew started running following kie.This caused the square groupers to spot them They all try to hop over the fence as fast as they can,JJ,Evan,John b and kie were already over They all turnt around they noticed that Pope's pants got caught.
The square groupers were clearly getting closer, but Pope was still stuck.The crew started encouraging him and try to pull him down.
"You're gonna rip me. Wait. You're gonna rip me!" Pope shouted as his pants got torn.
They ran the rest of the way to the Twinkie
"It's a little Tootsie Roll."JJ muttered as The group laughed and drove off

The pogues were back at the chateau to see what was inside the package they discovered earlier
"That bread had mold on it three days ago."Pope announced
"I'll just pull off the bad parts.Plus, mold is good for you.It's just a natural organism."JJ explained
Kiara called JJ over from the couch
"Yup, yup, yup! Hot damn! Let's do it."JJ ran
He took a big bite out of his sandwich before gagging and spitting it out.Evan started laughing while John B opened the package.
He reached inside and pulled out a map.
"Holy shit."John b said in shock
"Oh. X marks the spot."Pope announced
"Longitude, latitude.Wait, there's somethin' else in there." John B mumbled
"What's that?"JJ questioned
"It's a tape recorder dumbass"Kiara stated the obvious
The tape recorder suddenly starts playing, with a familiar voice coming from it.
"Dear Bird."
"Who's Bird?"JJ asked confused
"That's what my dad called me."John b stated
"I hate to say,I told you so,but I told you so.
And you doubted your old man.I suspect at this moment,you're filled with guilt and self-loathing
over our last fight,but don't kill yourself just yet, kid.
I didn't expect to find the Merchant either.The group looked at eachother in shock

You were probably right to call me out.
Wasn't exactly Father of the Decade.
What can I say, kid?I could smell the barn.
And hopefully, we're listenin' to this in our brand new sugar-shack down in Costa Rica,livin' off passive investments and pulling on permits.
If not, and you find this for less than optimal reasons,well, that's what the map is for.There she is, the wreck of the Merchant.If something happens to me,finish what I started.Go for the gold, kid.
I love you and your brother, Bird,even if I didn't always act like it.I'll see you on the other side.
They hear static,and then the tape recorder clicks off.
John B sighed before he suddenly started to sob.
"Holy shit, he did it! Big John.He found the Merchant"JJ whooped
"Can you-can you please?"Kiara interrupted
Evan walked out the room and went on to the deck whilst the other pogues joined him

Kiara pulled out her ukulele and They hear thunder rumbling in the distance, and they sit peacefully for a short while.
"How much was it again?"JJ spoke up
"Five hundred mil."Pope responded
"All right, let's talk the split. Now, before we say 'evenly',may I remind you that I am the only one that can properly defend us from those groupers who were after us. Protection? Not cheap, okay?"JJ explained
"You haven't trained.You've done zero training."Pope stated
"YouTube, bro!That's at least a five percent bump right there."JJ exclaimed
"You haven't-"Pope tried to say as JJ interrupted  him.
"Any objections? Didn't think so."JJ scoffed Pope,Evan,Kie raised their hand,
"What are you gonna do with your 100 mil,Pope?" Kiara asked the boy
"Pay for college in advance. And also,textbooks. Those are expensive."Pope stated
"What about you,Kie?"Evan asked the girl
"Yeah,what does a socialist do when she's rich?"Pope laughed as The Pogues chuckled
"Just wanna make a double album.About Obx, the Pogues.You know,the way Catch a Fire is about Kingston. Record it at Marley Studio, Peter Tosh producing."Kiara explained
"Peter Tosh is dead."Pope stated At the same time, "Peter Tosh is dead. I know.The Spirit of Peter Tosh will never die."Kiara smiled
"What are you gonna do with it,Evan?"Kiara questioned
"I'm gonna open a surf shop and get enough money for me to travel the world with whoever i end up with."Evan smiled
"I know what I'll do.I'm gonna get a big ass house on Figure Eight and go full Kook."JJ exclaimed
"You're gonna go full Kook?"Pope questioned as JJ nodded
"Yup. Gonna get a marble statue of myself, and then I'm gonna get a koi pond. Put a bunch of those fish"JJ explained
"I'm never visiting."Kie joked
"I definitely will I would love to see a marble statue of JJ."Evan grinned
"What are you gonna do, JB?"Pope asked the boy
It was silent for a while, before he finally turned to face them.
"To going full Kook."John b smiled
"To going full kook!"The pogues shouted
