- We're rich!

- We're rich!

We got five million

in gold bullion!

We got five million

[II]

Go! Go!

Go, Carl! Go, Carl!

I'm going to go find Jack.

Mammy.

Nu'.!

Negativity, Chloe.

Blocking mama,

Weird smells.

I love it!

- Hey, Jack.

- Oh, hey, Chloe.

- What are you doing?

- Just some of my chores.

- Do you need some help?

- It's all right. I got it.

Okay.

What is this place?

Just my old family shed.

There's a lot

of old junk in here.

Where'd all this stuff

come from?

[53]] over.

Some of it belonged to that crazy

old great, great uncle of mine.

- The one in the story your Dad told?

- Yeah.

Don't eat anything

you find, Ranger.

Mom doesn't wanna clean

the carpets again.

What? A guy eats

one expired doggy treat and...

Ooh, hey, what's that?

Doggy treats?

WEEKS;

55515111153112,

What's in it?

- I can't eat that!

- Whoa.

Hey!

Macaw;

Mafia.

This belonged

to Philo T. Keller.

That's your uncle!

Says here that there's supposed to be

a map somewhere to his gold claim.

Let me see.

What the heck does this mean?

"Two-step from one"?

"Beware the Sands of Thyme"?

"Follow the wrong path"?

Maybe Uncle Philo

was crazier than we thought.

Still, that old jacket

might clean up pretty nice.

What?

Are you kidding? This is

an adventure waiting to happen!

- An adventure?

- Yes, an adventure!

C'mon, I can't spend

the whole summer cooped up

in that tiny RV

with my Mom doing yoga poses

and drinking

wheatgrass juice! Yuck.

I guess it beats doing chores.

Do you know how much fun

this could be?

- Pretty fun. Yeah.

- And there might be gold!

Do you know what

we could buy with gold?

Emit;

We'd be rich!

Are you in?

Partners?

Partners.

- Partners!

- Oh, gimme one sec!

Ranger, keep it down, would you?

He's ready to get

this show on the road!

- Always.

- I'm in meetings most of the day.

I'm guessing you guys

are good with that?

- Yeah.

- Yeah. Yeah.

- Oh yeah. Back here at 4:00, okay?

- All right.

- Let's get to the library.

- Okay.

They've gotta have some info

on old Uncle Philo.

- It's just a couple blocks away.

- Okay.

Looks like Park Boy's

got himself a girlfriend.

I wish I had a girlfriend.

We're gonna make him look

like a loser

right in front of her.

Yes!

So, those are the guys

that pulled off that

massive gold heist?

They look like

a couple of dorks.

Totally.

- May I help you?

- Uh, yeah.

Do you keep

the old town records here?

Vase,

Urn... we're looking

for information?

On my great, great uncle.

Well, your mutt's going to

have to wait outside.

Hang on.

Who's she calling a mutt?

Oh no, he's fine. He'll curl up

in a corner and probably go to sleep.

Uh, wait.

I'm not tired.

Fine.

If we could just access your

computer database, please?

I think we'll be good to go.

Here's our database.

Knock you rselves out.

Excuse me, should I be napping?

I'll take that as a yes.

Don't give up, GUYS-

Hey, wait a second! I've seen

a dog like that before in town.

I've got an idea!

Maybe they're related.

Maybe that's a lead!

Okay, you guys

keep shuffling papers.

- I'll be right back.

- Ranger, where are you going?

Jack! Jack, come take

a look at this article!

Tamika?

"And his trusty dog Eric

cash in some gold

"from a secret gold claim"!

So the story about Uncle Philo

wasn't just

some crazy old legend!

The gold claim's

gotta be in here somewhere!

Yo! Get away from my house,

ya stinkin' mutt,

or I'm gonna bite ya in half!

Easy, sailor!

Listen, I got questions.

I got no time for questions!

Any of your relatives ever have

a human named Philo Keller?

Yeah, maybe they did,

maybe they didn't.

Now look, my buddy's looking

for something

that belongs to him,

and I saw this dog in a picture

that really looked like you.

Yeah, yeah,

that would probably be

- my great, great, great, great...

- Come on, get to it!

Hold on.

Too many greats there.

That was my grand-pappy you saw.

He left us somethin' to take care of.

Been handed down

paw-to-paw for generations.

- Well, can I see it?

- I don't know.

- What's in it for me?

- How about I don't step on your head?

Mm,

If you dig up a bone,

the deal is off.

It's not a bone.

It's around here somewhere.

Wait, I got it!

I'm gonna find it!

Ah, It's like watching

small, fuzzy paint dry.

How 'bout less wise-crackin'

and more helpin'?

Just wake me up

when you're done, okay?

Hey, Chloe!

It's Uncle Philo's gold claim!

It's still valid, too!

One problem though.

The longitude and latitude

have been torn

from the original document.

Uncle Philo

must've taken it with him

to keep the location a secret.

So if anyone tried

to jump his claim,

he could reattach it

to prove it was his.

Sneaky old dude, wasn't he?

So there's no way

of knowing where it is.

- It could be anywhere in the state.

- I guess so.

Come on.

There you are, boy.

[fin-Gym u.

What's up?

What do you got there, boy?

Open it and find out.

And then get ready

to shower me with rewards!

What is that?

Whoa! Is that the map

we read about in the journal?

How did you find this, boy?

A little something

I call being awesome!

And there's my rewards.

- Delicious!

- I can't believe we found the map!

Uh, sorry.

Just excited

about finding the map.

Yeah. Me too.

ALQR-a

u.

Come on, bud.

Where'd you get that?

It was just sitting there.

I'm surprised you didn't...

You can't eat

80-year-old beans!

Sure I can.

I'm eating them now.

- They'll make you sick.

- No, they won't.

Larry?

Yes, Carl?

My tummy hurts.

[Gamma aiming]?

Okay, come on!

Let me enjoy my squirrel!

You and your girlfriend

tryin' on dresses, Park Boy?

Friends of yours, Jack?

Not really.

Then it's none of their business

what we're doing.

One of your campers, Park Boy?

One of my friends, Ollie.

Hey!

What is it?

Your parents don't

give you enough attention?

Or do you have

self-esteem issues?

- What?

- So is there a reason you're a bully?

Or are you just a big doofus?

- You're lucky you're a girl.

- I know.

- So, nice weather we're having.

- Yes.

Yeah, it's good.

It's good.

Wait till

school starts, Park Boy.

- Looking forward to it.

- Are they keeping you back a grade?

- You know what? I should...

- What? Fight a girl?

Well, this girl has

a brown belt in Tai Chi.

I think the little one

just pooped his pants!

A brown belt in Tai Chi?

Well, I own a belt

that happens to be brown,

and I figured those guys wouldn't

even know what Tai Chi was, anyway.

- Thanks, Chloe.

- What are friends for?

Right around this time,

Jack's dad got some really bad news

from the town council,

and it was going

to change everything.

We knew this could happen, right?

Wan

I just didn't think

it was gonna happen so soon.

I know.

I just wonder

how Jack's going to take this news.

Take what news?

Well, Jack finally got his wish.

They were gonna close the park.

But that's not so had,

'cause now we can finally go exploring
