This is the story of how my best friend Jody and I got rich.

No matter how many

rags-to-riches stories you've heard before,

believe me,

this one tops them all.

That's me, back in 1980,

the day Jody and I first met. Are we there yet?

Maybe we're lost.

We're not lost.

Just relax

and enjoy the scenery.

Isn't it beautiful?

See, every summer

when I used to come here...

my Aunt Alice

used to greet me right there on the front porch...

with this big pitcher

of lemonade and this plate of piping-hot muffins.

Mom,

you've really lost it.

Where's the mall?

Great! Two channels and we don't get either of them.

Honey, you don't want

to watch TV anyway.

Go outside

and explore the town.

I'll finish unpacking.

Go on.

It's a beautiful day.

It'll be fun.

We left L.A. for this?

That was my first glimpse of Jody,

the finest woman I know.

Hey.

Get up and at 'em!

Come on.

Rise and shine!

I can't believe it.

I heard a rooster crow.

I'm used to hearing traffic.

I miss traffic.

Oh, honey, come on.

Remember our deal.

We're gonna try it out

for the summer. If we don't like it, we'll go back.

But you're not

gonna want to leave.

Hey, you know,

sometimes it's scary

for me too without your father.

Sometimes I feel like

I'm walking across a big, shaky suspension bridge...

with nothing

to hold onto.

But we'll hold onto

each other. Okay?

Okay? Come on.

Okay, Mom.

Oh, my God!

- Huh?

- I can't stop! Get out of the way!

Run faster!

Move over!

Whoa!

Who do you think you are,

Evel Knievel?

Are you okay?

I'm really sorry. It's a miracle I'm alive.

At least I think I am.

I'm really sorry.

- Ow! Oh, my God!

- What's wrong?

- The pain is awful.

- You don't look like you're hurt.

It takes 24 hours for bruises

to show. I'll wake up looking like an eggplant.

- This could cost you

major dollars. - I'm not giving you a cent!

- I'll see you in court.

Relax.

I'm not suing you.

Yeah, I knew that.

No, you didn't. I had you squirming.

- How dumb do you think I am?

- Dumb enough to let a lizard crawl up your leg.

- And dumb enough to look.

I'm gonna gain 30 pounds

living next door to you.

It's third generation.

My grandmother's recipe with one of my own special secrets.

It's so nice

of you to do this. That's how we do things.

She's here!

Hey, honey!

Beth, these are

our next-door neighbors.

This is Mrs. Briggs

and her daughter Tracy.

Hello. Hello.

Hello!

Excuse me.

The mall's

about 45 minutes from here.

Even if we can't get rides

from our parents, a bus goes there.

Great. At least

we're not completely stranded.

I can't believe anyone

can just come out here and pick these.

You're really into this,

aren't you?

I'm dying to go to L.A.

All those beach parties. It must be so cool.

Do you guys start dating

when you're nine down there?

Date? No.

Do you guys date?

My mother would k*ll me.

So when do we start dating?

Eighth grade.

That's when you start shaving under your arms.

I'm not going to.

Date? Or shave under your arms?

Sam, the men don't have to,

so why should we?

Italian women

don't either.

Tracy, I'm not having

hairy pits.

Guys hate it

if you have hairy pits.

Do you guys see my pail?

I left it over there. It's gone.

Isn't that it over there?

Ow! Wha--

Great. The redneck.

You must be in good shape

to climb up there,

especially with

a busted shoulder.

-Don't eat those berries.

You'll get sick. -There's nothing wrong with 'em.

These are okay,

but those are bad.

Which?

Those.

Which are "these"

and which are "those"?

Those are these

and these are those.

Those are these

and these are those?

"On Tuesday when it hails

and snows, the feeling on me grows and grows--"

"That hardly anybody knows

that those are these and these are those."

- You know Winnie-the-Pooh?

- Yeah. I read it with my dad.

Yeah, me too.

With my dad.

"On Wednesday when

the sky is blue and I have nothing else to do--"

"I sometimes wonder if it's true

that who is which and which is who."

No. "What"

and "what is who." What?

- That's right. "What."

- No. "Which."

- What!

- Which!

It's "which."

"What."

- "What."

- What?

- What.

Beth, come on.

We have to go.

What are you,

her mother? No, Jody.

Her friend.

Something you don't know anything about.

You're not worth it.

Let's get out of here.

Beth?

We need to talk

to you.

That's Jody Salerno.

She's really trashy! Bad news. She steals.

She fights about everything.

She's always getting people into trouble.

She never goes to school.

She always gets left back. Her mother is a boozer.

And she lies

about everything. Nobody goes to her house.

Not even Jody.

I hear she sleeps in the woods.

I appreciate the warning.

Thanks for showing me

the berries. I'll see you later.

Don't forget.

You heard it here first.

Be careful!

Yes, ma'am.

Your turn.

- Forget it.

- What's wrong, city girl? Scared?

- No.

- Oh, yeah, you are.

- I am not.

- You are too.

Am no-o-o-ot!

City girls.

Oh, look at you.

A week ago you were convinced

you'd never make any friends,

and now you're

out the door again.

Where're you off to

this time? I'm going to meet Jody.

I thought you said

you were going to start working on your book today.

I can't write

when the floors are dirty.

So, what happened

to Tracy and Samantha?

They don't get along

with Jody.

But they're wrong.

I like her.

There's something about her.

I don't know.

She knows Winnie-the-Pooh.

She can't be all that bad then.

Oh. It's my mom

and her boyfriend.

Hey, girls.

Hi.

I'm taking your mom

to River Point for dinner. You want to come?

You can bring

your friend too.

Hey, baby.

These kids don't want to sit

in a stuffy old restaurant.

- Jody's having fun

with her new little friend. - Well.

I'm Beth... Easton.

It's nice to meet you.

Well, thank you. You're a little doll.

I'm Lynette.

This is Ray. Ray Karnisak.

Nice to meet you.

You too.

Look at these two.

They're ready to catch

lightning in a bottle.

Have fun, girls.

Bye, bye. Bye, bye.

They're nice.

Does he live with you?

No, but he

comes over a lot.

What about your dad?

He died when I was seven.

So did mine.

Last year.

Does your mom

have a boyfriend? No.

It's too soon for her.

Do you think

she misses it? Hmm?

It. You know!

Well...

they always miss it,

don't they?

Why do you think grown-ups

make such a big deal out of it?

Probably because

you gotta get naked.

Ever seen a guy naked?

Babies don't count.

No. You?

In the movies.

A "P.G."?

No, an "R."

How'd you get in?

It was a drive-in. I watched through binoculars.

Can we go?

They tore it down.

Were they doing it...

in the movie?

No, but people

in the cars were.

What do people do

for excitement around here? They move somewhere else.

My mom loves it here.

She says it's better for her work.

What does she do?

She's writing a children's book.

It's about an ostrich

who gets lost. A "lostrich."

Yeah.

Sorry there isn't

more to do, except for tomorrow of course.

What's tomorrow?

June 21.

What's so special

about June 21?

Sorry. I'm not sure

I can trust you yet.

You're fakin' me out, right?

There's nothing happening tomorrow.

It just happens to be

the first day of summer and the longest day of the year.

The summer solstice?

So?

So, at high noon

we could be rich.

How?

Billionaires, Easton. Trillionaires, even.

That's all I can tell you now,

except this will be the greatest adventure you'll ever have.

Meet me

tomorrow morning outside the elementary school...

on Dogwood and Third

at 7:30 sharp.

Hi.

Hi.

Can I help you?

- No. I'm waiting for someone.

- Mind if I ask who?

Jody Salerno.

Ahh.

And Jody's late, huh?

Yeah.

- Did you check her house?

- I don't know where she lives.

- Hop in. I'll take you.

- Okay.

That's the one.

You want me to wait?

No. Thanks.

Yes?

Um, it's Beth,

Jody's friend.

We met yesterday.

Hi. Is Jody here?

No.

I was supposed to meet her

and she didn't show.

I told you, baby.

She's not here.

No luck, huh?

- Jody isn't a bad kid.

She's just not too dependable. - You're tellin' me.

- Come on.

I'll give you a ride home. - Thanks.

You look familiar.

You sure we've never met?

I've never been here before.

You and your mother

just bought Alice Young's old place, didn't ya?

Well, she inherited it.

Alice Young was her aunt.

- Is your mother's name Kate?

- Mm-hmm.

Hey, what's going on?

Nothing. Jody never showed,

so the Sheriff gave me a ride home.

- Oh, thanks.

- I thought you were going to work on your book today.

I am. I have to do

some painting first, okay?

The last time I saw you, our legs were tied together.

Excuse me?

It's Matt... Hollinger.

I know who you are.

We would have won that race if you hadn't tripped.

Wait a second.

I'll be right back.

- You're hitting on my mother,

aren't you? - Now wait a minute!

Beth, there's someone

on the phone for you disguising her voice.

Jody.

I'll be right down.

Okay.

Mom, you can hang up now.

Where were you?

Do you know how long I waited for you?

What time do you have? 9:47.

At 9:57 look out

your bedroom window and I'll signal my location.

Look for the flashing light.

Tell no one of my whereabouts.

Jody, wha--

I'm meeting Jody.

I'll be back early.

Wait, wait. Beth?

Where are you two going?

You know.

Just... around.

I don't want you

getting into any trouble. Mrs. Briggs says Jody is--

She's got some problems.

She--

She just doesn't have

any friends, Mom. Trust me, okay?

Yeah, okay. Okay.

You know, have fun.

Just be sure you come back before dinner.

I will. Bye.

Bye, honey.

Are you there?

Where are you?

Jody?

Jody!

What's the matter with you?

Why don't you shout louder

so they can hear my name in Canada?

- Who cares who hears

your name anywhere? - Is anyone with you?

Of course not.

Where were you this morning?

- I was at the school.

- No, you weren't. I waited there for you like you said.

I was inside

getting supplies.

How'd you get all that?

I didn't pay for it.

You stole it?

Yeah, and when I saw you with the Sheriff, I hid.

The Sheriff didn't know

you broke into the school.

Does he know

where we're going? You didn't tell, did you?

How could I tell

when I don't know?

Look at this

and you'll know.

Bear Mountain and

the Legend of Molly Morgan?

It's one of the books

from the Historical Society.

How'd you get it?

One good thing about living in this place,

a lot of buildings

close down, and when they do you can get some great stuff.

It was bizarre, Beth.

Like someone followed me there and made sure I found this.

- See that picture?

- Uh-huh.

- That was taken

over a hundred years ago. - Wow.

Know what's in that sack?

Gold.

And there's plenty more where that came from.

- After a hundred years?

- The mountain's still there, isn't it?

My dad used to tell me

the legend just like his father told him.

There's secrets in this

that no one else knows... except me.

- Who's Molly Morgan?

- The greatest woman who ever lived.

Come on.

I'll tell you about it later.

How far is it

to the mountain? About 15 miles.

We can't walk

that far. Who says we're walking?

Why do they call it

Bear Mountain?

Why do you think?

Wait.

Where are you?

Jody?

Jody?

Ow! Ow!

Sound effects.

Great, isn't it?

It was a joke.

No. You're the joke.

No wonder you've no friends. No wonder you got left back.

They should've put you

all the way back to nursery school!

Jody, wait up.

I--

Jody, wait.

Jody, wait up.

Who told you

I was left back?

I know.

That brownnose Tracy Briggs.

I don't want you thinkin'

I'm dumb. I'm not dumb.

But I am...

for saying it.

Are you comin'

to the mountain or not?

I really thought

that was a bear. No more animal noises.

Promise?

Sorry if

I scared you before. I wasn't that scared.

Oh, no? Your eyeballs

went "boing"... like that.

You laugh like a horse.

You look like one.

Here we are.

The Jody River.

It oughta be named

after me. I'm the only one who ever comes here.

Wait there. I've got

a surprise for you. Okay.

All aboard,

me hearties!

Holy--

Where did you get this?

There used to be

a paper mill near here.

When they closed,

a lot of boats got left behind.

All this one needed

was a new motor, so I got one.

You "got" one?

Whose motor was it?

Are you accusing me

of theft, Easton? I paid 20 bucks for it.

Where'd you get

the money? I stole it from my mom's purse.

I don't believe you.

I know the whole book by heart.

"It was 1849

and the rush was on.

"Farmers, teachers,

mill hands and preachers...

"all heading to California

and the search for gold.

"Oregon was next.

Then it was our turn.

The biggest strike up here

was inside Bear Mountain." Hold it. Stop the party.

Everybody go home.

You only happened to leave out the most important part.

There's no gold left

in Bear Mountain. It says so right there.

No. Look at this.

"Whenever miners gather around campfires,

"they tell the story

of Bear Mountain's most famous prospector,

a girl named Molly Morgan."

Molly was born in Scotland in 1900.

She was exactly our age, Beth,

when her father was k*lled in a factory expl*si*n.

Molly stole a loaf of bread

to feed her family.

She was arrested and sent

to a workhouse where they worked you till you dropped.

But they couldn't

keep her caged up.

Not Molly Morgan.

They never caught her.

They thought she drowned in the falls.

But nothing could stop her.

She stowed aboard a freighter

and crossed the Atlantic to Canada.

It was hard

for a girl traveling alone.

But she didn't care.

She crossed the entire continent.

She dreamed of getting rich.

She dreamed of gold.

Back then

girls couldn't be miners.

So she cut off her hair,

smudged up her face, and next thing you knew...

a boy who called himself Morgan

was one of the miners riding a boat to Bear Mountain.

She was sailing

on this very river, Beth. The same one we're on now.

She worked as hard

as any man ever did.

And then one day

the mine caved in.

No one could have survived,

or so they said. What happened?

No one ever saw

Molly Morgan again. Or did they?

She survived?

In 1931,

right before

the book came out,

the police arrested

a crazy mountain woman for making moonshine whiskey.

The mountain woman

called herself Molly Morgan.

No, it's true.

All those years she lived inside the mountain.

She told the police,

"Set me free and I'll show you how to find a fortress of gold.

I'll even draw a map."

You're making all this up.

You don't know any such thing.

You can't be sure that was the real Molly.

No, Beth. It's her.

Sometimes when I'm in the woods,

I can feel her watching.

Look what

she's got me doing.

I've got more gold in my teeth

than there is in that mountain.

Even if that crazy woman was

telling the truth, someone would have found the gold by now.

That's just it.

No one ever looked because they thought she was crazy.

What if she was

really Molly Morgan?

What if there really is

a fortress of gold? And what if it's waiting for us...

right there

inside Bear Mountain?

This is my river...

and that's my mountain.

And now it's finally here.

June 21.

But isn't that mountain

full of caves and mines?

Yep. And one of 'em

is gonna lead us to the fortress of gold.

Which one?

There must be so many.

We'll know...

in 12 minutes.

In the book...

Molly Morgan says

you can find the cave at high noon...

on the day

of the summer solstice.

It's the only time

when the sun's rays are the exact angle...

to shine inside the cave

and bounce back.

We'll see the reflection

from here. Molly said it was so bright she nearly went blind.

As soon as I get my hands

on that gold, I'm outta here.

I'm taking a gondola

down the Grand Canal and a camel across the Sahara.

I'm going surfing

on the Black Sea and skinny-dipping...

in the Gulf of Mexico,

and then I'm going up... to outer space.

You're already there.

11:51.

Nine more minutes.

You better hope those clouds

don't get in your way.

Ten.

Nine, eight, seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one.

That's it.

Start counting the money. It's real.

It's all ours!

Look out world, here I come!

Say something.

You're shocked, right?

It could be an illusion.

The sun could be bouncing off some rocks.

Yeah, the rocks in your head.

Why can't you believe...

what's in front of your eyes?

There's only one way to find out, and we're not going to.

- Why not?

- You can't expect us to climb up there.

Come on, Jody. We can't.

My mother. I promised her we'd be home early.

If you were on the boat

with Christopher Columbus when he spotted land,

you'd tell him to turn around

because your mom wants you home early?

Okay. Don't get hysterical.

I hear you.

But that mountain

is still way too dangerous.

No, it isn't.

Just trust me. That's what I told my mother.

Hello!

Hello!

Good. Now the bats

know we're here. Bats? Oh, my God!

Relax.

Where're you taking us?

It looks like it's easy to get lost in here.

Get down from there.

Okay, if you insist.

- Say you'll climb the mountain.

- No.

You're gonna crash!

Jody?

Stop messing around.

What are you doing

upside down?

Yeah, right.

Take the boat over there

and we'll tie it up.

Grab my backpack.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Okay, let's go.

Follow me. Where?

I told you.

My condo.

Wipe your feet.

The condo.

Please do come into

the sitting room. Won't you?

Looks like real furniture.

They're antiques.

Been in the family for years.

Four trillion years.

This is amazing. You're amazing.

Running water, free rent.

What more could I want?

I don't know. A TV?

Of course.

"Property of

Wheaton Elementary School"?

Does your mother

know you come here?

My mother?

My mother probably thinks

that I'm still in the next room.

- You've heard about her,

haven't you? - Heard what?

Beth, when you lie

your whole face twitches.

Well, I heard

she's not well.

Not well?

Every door you open,

bottles come rolling out. The house smells like a brewery.

What about Ray?

Ray?

He's even worse.

That's why she likes him.

The two of them can get plastered together.

Oh, my God!

Jody, what happened to you?

Um, that's from

when you almost k*lled me with your bike.

That was your right shoulder,

and that was a week ago. Come on, what happened?

Don't worry about me.

I'm tough. I know how to take care of myself.

What are you

talking about?

Ray and my mom

got smashed.

He treats her pretty bad

when he gets like that.

She used to fight back,

but she doesn't anymore.

It's worse now

'cause he's out of work.

This monster

comes out of him. That's when I split.

I come to the woods

or to my condo.

Anywhere just to get away

from those sounds. Those... awful sounds.

Last night

there was something new.

There was no sound.

I was so scared for her.

I had to help her.

I had to help her. What'd you do?

I was scared,

but I went back.

My mom was lying

on the floor. He was coming at her.

I thought this time

he was gonna k*ll her.

I grabbed my fishing pole

and I went at him.

Everything was a blur.

I felt the pole

go into him like a spear. Then it snapped, broken.

He threw me

and I hit my shoulder against something sharp.

The corner of a table

or something.

I got up

and ran like hell.

I could hear him

running after me, screaming.

Then I couldn't hear him

anymore.

Then I saw him fall.

I knew he was dead.

Dead? You mean--

Well, was there blood?

You're sure he was dead?

He wasn't moving.

He wasn't breathing. I walked around him three times.

I called his name.

I leaned over him.

Trust me. Worm food.

So there's a dead body

just lying out there in the woods?

Until someone finds him.

What about your mom?

She saw the whole thing.

- She was out cold. I told you.

- Tell my mom. She'll know what to do.

- No, Beth.

Swear you won't say anything. - Ridiculous. You need help.

Come back with me.

Tell them the truth. It was self-defense.

Tell them how Ray

was treating your mother. They'll take Ray's side.

They'll say he was trying

to straighten me out and I k*lled him.

- They'd never say that.

- Oh, no? Everybody likes him.

You liked him too. But they

don't feel that way about me. They'd never believe me.

Look at the stuff Tracy

and Samantha told you. You'll hear from your mom too.

You wait.

Everybody says I'll end up

in jail. Sorry, folks.

I'll have to disappoint you.

But I'm staying here the way Molly Morgan did... free.

She had a hard life too.

She escaped from the workhouse and came to the mountain.

She did not die in that cave-in.

That mountain woman was Molly Morgan.

She lived inside these walls

and she found that fortress of gold, and I'll find it too.

You can steer the boat

yourself, can't you?

Yeah, I think so. Why?

I was hoping you'd bring me food if I run out.

Or just visit if I need

someone to talk to. You know I'll help you.

Good.

That's the second promise you made to me today.

What's the first?

Climb up to the cave.

No. No way.

It's not like we have to climb up the side of the mountain.

We'll use the passageways

the miners used. They wind all the way inside the mountain.

Then let us out of the cave

with the gold. We'll go right through there.

Here, look.

This is a map of the passageway.

No one has laid eyes on this for years.

The passageway

looks like a spider's web.

It leads to many caves.

And now we know which cave we want to go to,

this is how we get there.

No. I've never driven

a boat alone before.

I've got to give myself

plenty of time while there's still daylight.

You're not gonna tell them

where I am, are you?

I told you I wouldn't.

Are you angry at me?

You are.

I can tell.

I'm angry

this happened to you!

You didn't do anything wrong.

You shouldn't have to hide.

I never meant to k*ll him.

I'll come visit you

every week.

I cross my heart.

Don't be scared.

It's just a little rain.

The echoes make it sound

much worse than it is.

I'll go get you something

to keep you dry.

Wait for me in the boat.

I'll be right back.

Just a little rain?

Jody,

the boat's getting away!

Jody?

Beth?

Jody? Jody!

Hold on!

Grab the wheel.

- Watch out! Watch out!

Get these off me.

My leg's stuck, and I can't move my arm.

Ow! Ow!

Can you move it?

No.

I can't do it.

It's like trying to move the whole mountain.

You'll have to go for help.

I'll just have to lay here.

You can't just lay there.

What about the tide?

What about the tide?

How much time do I have

before I could drown?

You're not going to drown.

We have till after dark. It's the longest day of the year.

About eight or nine hours,

maybe even more.

How far are we

from civilization?

There's a highway west

of here on the other side of the forest.

- How far?

- I'm not sure, but I know I can reach it before dark.

Four or five hours tops.

Maybe less if the rain stops.

I've got supplies

and a great plan.

It's all set in my mind.

We'll have you out of here

in no time.

I think the rain's stopping.

I'll stop the first car I see

and tell them to call the cops.

I'll ride with them to

the phone to make sure nothing goes wrong with the call.

Then I'll skedaddle.

I can't call the cops myself

or let 'em find me.

They'll arrest me

so I have to disappear. Where will you go?

No one knows the woods

like I do. My dad taught me well.

When they come,

tell them we went boating and got lost.

Nothing about Ray

and nothing about the gold.

I swear

I'll come through for you. You can count on me.

- Just be strong like Molly.

- Strong like Molly.

Just be strong, Beth.

I'll make it.

I won't let you down.

Just be strong like Molly.

Hey!

What are you doing

way out here?

My friend. My friend. Please help my friend.

She's trapped under a

rock slide at Bear Mountain. You gotta help her.

You walked all the way here

from Bear Mountain? My God.

Where in the mountain

is she? The entrance.

This is Weller.

I've got a female teenager

reporting a rock slide at the entrance to Bear Mountain.

- And you are?

- What?

Your name.

Molly Morgan.

The subject's name

is Molly Morgan.

Female teenager.

I'll be bringing her into the shop.

Air to ground,

we're approaching from the east. Have Bear Mountain in sight.

We have a good spot

for the drop.

We copy.

Air to ground. Man in the water.

I'm in the area.

Beth, can you hear me?

Beth?

Ground to air. Copy that.

Beth? I'm here. I'm down here.

I hear her.

This way. Over there.

You made it!

I knew you'd make it.

Right over there.

Nothing's broken, but

you've got mild hypothermia and some cuts.

Let's get you home.

Rescue to air.

We're ready for pickup.

Air to rescue. We copy that.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Yeah.

Hold on just a minute. How's our Molly?

That's a mean-looking bruise

on her shoulder. They'll get a better look at the hospital.

I'll do the honors.

Thanks, Mike.

All right.

Bye now, Molly. Great goin'.

They oughta give you

a medal for saving your friend's life.

I'll bet you're starvin'.

This oughta hold you over

till we get you home.

By the way.

Your friend? She's gonna be fine.

Sorry for the interruption,

Matt.

Paramedics just had a look

at Molly. She's okay.

Molly. The girl here.

Molly Morgan.

Yeah. I get the picture.

Right.

I'll take care of it.

Oh, my God.

Hi, baby. Give 'em some room.

Sweetie, baby.

Look at you! I'm okay.

I'm okay! I'm okay!

I'm really okay.

Can't I just go home?

Not until a doctor

gets a look at the two of you. The two of us?

- You and Jody.

- Jody?

- Jody!

- Beth!

I never thought

I'd see you again.

Let me get her mother.

Kate?

They didn't get anything

out of you, did they? Good. We gotta make this quick.

They still don't know about Ray.

They haven't found the body.

I gotta disappear.

Remember our plan. Keep your mouth shut.

That the TV set

from the school?

I gotta make a break for it.

When the time's right, I'll head back to the condo.

Please come with me.

Just humor me.

Come with me.

Just get on it,

and stay on it.

Ray!

Matt, thanks

for calling.

Well, young lady.

Looks like you had quite an adventure.

I'm glad to see you're okay.

I'll give your mom a call, have her come over.

I'm Ray Karnisak.

I'm awfully sorry about all this.

You okay, honey?

Wait. Where are we going?

No, we can't leave her!

Jody!

Mom, listen to me.

We can't leave her! Jody!

Thank you.

Honey, you stay here. I'm gonna get the car.

I can make it, Mom.

No, stay where you are.

I'm gonna bring the car around.

Mom, I'm not a baby.

I see! You almost

get yourself k*lled and that makes you a grown-up?

Just stay where you are.

Don't cry, Mom.

I'm sorry.

I didn't--

It was an accident.

If anything

ever happened to you, I don't know what I'd do.

I'm sorry.

I am just keeping you

so far away from that girl.

I can't see Jody?

After what happened yesterday, no.

She saved my life!

Wrong, Beth. She almost got you k*lled.

I can't believe I didn't

listen to the things people kept telling me about her.

The two of you alone

on a boat on a dangerous mountain!

I thought

you had more sense.

You have no idea what

an incredible person she is.

She saved my life!

She's a hero!

According to the Sheriff,

your hero doesn't seem able

to walk into a building without stealing.

Does the Sheriff know

about the drunken fights that go on in her house?

It got so bad, Jody thought Ray

was gonna k*ll her mom.

What are you saying?

When Jody tried to stop him,

he went after her. See the marks on her shoulder.

- Ray tried to k*ll Lynette?

- Yes!

How do you know

she's telling the truth this time?

Because I know her.

And she wouldn't lie to me.

I talked to Judge Gould

about the thefts at the school.

And you're just gonna have

to keep an eye on her.

You can't let her run wild

the way she used to.

She's on a

sort of probation.

She's gonna do

community service work under my supervision.

I'm gonna have her help

the school custodian.

I've done everything

I can for her.

Maybe this'll do her some good.

It's a shame, though.

Well,

I gotta get going.

Thanks, Matt.

Remember how high Frank

used to toss her in the air?

I never saw a kid

so fearless. She's fearless, all right.

You should've seen her

the night before she was causing all the trouble.

Yeah, what did happen

that night?

We caught her red-handed

stealing from her mom's purse.

She looked us right in the eye

and denied it.

When I told her her mom didn't

want her disappearing again, she went nuts.

Matt,

I mean she went nuts.

Ranting, raving, screaming.

Took her fishing rod, stabbed me in the ribs.

At least we know where

she was running off to... that mountain. The "gold."

See you around.

Later.

I don't believe this.

Don't you get it? He's lying!

Beth.

This is exactly what Jody said you'd say.

You twist everything around

so it's all her fault.

Have you seen her?

Is she okay?

She's fine!

She's working at the school to make up for stealing.

This is incredible.

Ray causes all the trouble, and Jody gets punished!

When Jody's father died,

the only person

Lynette and Jody could count on was Ray Karnisak.

Lynette went through

a terrible time, and Ray got her back on her feet.

There's nothing he wouldn't

do for her or Jody!

- That's the Ray I know.

- He's a liar!

Beth, honey. Jody is my friend.

You can keep us apart,

but nothing you say...

will ever change the way

I feel about her... ever!

Hi!

Hi!

Smile.

It's wonderful to see you

looking so well. Thank you.

Come on.

Everybody is dying to talk to you.

Hi, Beth.

How are you?

We heard that Jody

almost got you k*lled.

No. Actually, I wouldn't

be here if it weren't for her.

Is it true she had

thousands of dollars...

of stolen equipment

stashed in a hiding place? I heard it was jewelry.

How could you go with her?

She's a total mental case.

She's not a mental case.

She saved my life.

Excuse me.

Hot dog?

Hamburger?

Thanks.

- I'm gonna get a drink.

- I'll get it!

No, that's okay.

I'll be right back.

City girl!

Jody! I was going crazy.

I didn't know when

I was gonna see you again. It's been the longest two weeks.

I snuck out.

I gotta get back before they notice I'm gone.

- It's like

I'm under house arrest. - Me too. It's so childish.

I was telling you the truth

about Ray. I'd hate it if you thought I was lying.

-I don't. Total trust.

-I couldn't believe it when I saw him in the hospital.

Tell me about it.

My heart stopped.

I told my mom

what happened to you.

She didn't believe me.

Neither did Matt.

They don't want to know

the truth. It's easier for everyone that way.

Actually, Ray's been

pretty nice to me lately. No kidding?

He keeps asking me

about the mountain and my map. I think he wants the gold.

I gotta split.

Wait.

Where are yogoing?

Don't you want to get back

to the party? Don't get weird on me.

Though... there are

a couple of cute boys there. They're just after your money.

-What money?

-The money we'll get when we dig up Molly Morgan's treasure.

I didn't mean

to make her run.

She knows

how you feel about her.

- Beth? You can see her.

- When?

When?

Tomorrow?

Okay, tomorrow.

I'll drive you over, okay?

Okay.

Now will you come back

to the party?

Mom!

Mom, come on!

You're in a hurry.

It's open.

Hello? Jody?

Hello?

Jody?

There's no one here.

I feel weird about doing this.

Look at this!

Jody!

Mom!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Mom!

I'm gonna call

an ambulance.

I'm goin' to the hospital

with 'em.

When Lynette comes out of this,

maybe she'll be able to tell us where Jody is.

Or Ray...

for that matter.

They went to the mountain.

I'm positive.

Ray wanted Jody

to take him to the gold.

Beth, there is no gold!

Everybody knows that's just a myth.

That's not the point!

Not if Ray thinks she can lead him to it.

Let's wait and talk

to Lynette.

We can't wait!

That's all you ever do is wait. I know what happened.

Ray got drunk and told Jody

to take him to the gold.

Lynette must've tried

to stop him and he smashed her!

Jody's in danger

and you're not doing anything!

I think we should listen to her

this time, Matt.

Go on,

get outta here.

Ted? Where's Ted?

Ted, call the state police.

Have them do an aerial

surveillance of Bear Mountain and surrounding areas.

See if they

can spot anything...

that might suggest

that a man and a girl have been there.

I can't believe I'm doing this.

I have known that guy my whole life!

Go on home now.

I promise you...

the minute I know anything

I'll call.

Wait, Sheriff,

there's one more thing.

You have to have a boat

to get to the mountain.

Maybe you could ask Ted

to see if any boats were stolen.

Come on.

Ted?

One more thing for you.

Honey, let's go home.

There's nothing more we can do.

No, we have to go

to the hospital.

She's still unconscious,

but the doctors feel she's going to pull through.

Oh, my God.

The poor woman. Sheriff?

Did you talk

to the state police yet?

They've made several passes

over the mountain, but there's no sign anyone's there.

All right, Beth?

No, that doesn't prove anything.

They have to look inside the mountain.

She was right about

the stolen boat.

- Walter Guthrie shows up

at the river to go fishing-- - And his boat's gone?

- It was kind of obvious.

- Guthrie found this on the dock.

It's Jody's.

She must've left it for us to find.

I'm goin' out

to the mountain.

You stay here, Ted,

and mind the store. I'm going with you.

No, no.

You're not going anywhere.

Mom, he doesn't know where

to go inside the mountain and I do.

Jody showed me a passageway

that led to the cave where she thought the gold was.

Okay, fine.

Can't you just tell the Sheriff this?

No! I wouldn't know how

to explain it. I have to be there to show you.

Come on!

We're wasting time.

We have you in our sights.

We'll follow you

to Bear Mountain, orbit the area and wait for your call.

Look! They're here.

That's Guthrie's boat.

That's another one for you, Beth.

Beth?

This is Matt.

We found the missing boat. Bring the team in here.

Rescue team en route.

Copy. We're heading in the mountain. Out.

Watch your step.

Oh, my God.

No!

Where are you going?

Mom, it's okay.

I'm just gonna show the Sheriff the way.

You go right through here.

I see it. Come on back.

- Beth, stop!

- Matt, come with me.

Mom, go to the entrance.

When the others get here, you can show 'em the way.

Jody saved my life,

and I save hers. That's how it works.

- No, no.

- Just do what she says. I'll go with her.

Beth!

Oh, my God.

You all right?

Keep goin'. I'm with ya.

Hey, slow down!

Geez! Don't they make you guys exercise?

I'm waiting!

Okay, I'm comin'!

You look awful.

How nice of you.

Okay, now...

which way do we go? I don't know.

What do you mean?

I thought Jody showed you the way.

Yeah, but you need a map

once you get this far. Okay, where's the map?

Ray must have it.

Oh, great.

Wait.

Isn't that a footprint?

Yeah. It looks fresh too.

If we follow where it came from--

Beth?

Come on!

Beth,

would you wait a second?

Thank you, God.

Oh, no.

What?

Whoa!

Whoo!

Beth, oh, no!

God! Are you crazy?

How could you do that?

It was kind of easy. Now it's your turn.

- Come on!

- Okay. Yeah.

Come on.

Nice jump.

Beth?

Okay, slow down.

Beth, wait up.

Look.

What?

I switched this off.

Where's the light

coming from? I don't know. Come on.

Come on.

This is amazing.

Beth?

Holy!

Beth? Beth?

Matt?

Where are you?

Over here.

Over here.

Where's here?

I don't know.

Matt?

Where are you?

Matt?

Wait for me, Beth. Beth, I can't hear you.

Jody!

It's okay.

Take a deep breath.

It's gonna be okay.

Sit down.

Take a deep breath.

It's okay.

Be strong... like Molly.

- Where's Ray?

- Back there somewhere. He's drunk and crazy.

I got away. I ran

and just kept running.

That's good.

He's probably lost.

My mom.

Do you know if she's okay? When we left, I couldn't tell.

She's okay.

She's gonna be fine.

They're taking care of her

in the hospital.

He took my map.

Then he said I had to go with him.

She tried to stop him

with my dad's g*n. He grabbed it and hit her.

She tried so hard

to stop him.

I know, I know.

Let's go.

Let's try and find our way

out of here.

Matt's here somewhere.

And a rescue squad is on the way.

Beth, look.

That light we saw.

It was crystals!

Look.

- Molly Morgan's gold.

- You were right, Jody!

I always knew

it was here.

Worms!

Glowworms.

The gold's

gotta be here somewhere.

You found it!

- There's no gold here.

- No gold, huh? What do you call that?

Glowworms!

You tried to make a damn fool outta me!

Where's the gold?

Get back here!

Jody!

Jody?

Honey!

Jody, where are you?

Come on, hon.

I think it's time we had

just a little talk.

We've always been friends,

haven't we, huh? Jody.

Come on.

Beth?

Jody?

Jody? Jody?

Jody! Jody!

I'm not mad at you.

I just wanna help you find the gold.

Where are you?

You're making it awful tough on me.

Jody.

Shh.

There you are.

You've been playing games

with me all along, haven't you?

No, I haven't.

You've been nothing

but trouble since the day you were born.

I'm gonna have to teach you

a little lesson.

Jody? Jody!

What happened?

Molly hit him in the head with a shovel.

Molly's here?

She was right here.

I swear, she was right there.

Beth, where are you?

Jody, geez!

You two okay?

Wh--

What the hell happened to him?

- Molly hit him in the head.

- Molly?

Yeah. Molly Morgan.

She was right there. I swear she was right there.

Matt? Over here! Come on in.

Come on in, guys.

Can you believe that kid?

Said she wanted to come look for the gold.

I told her no,

but there's no arguing with her.

Figured it'd be safer

if I came along.

What's the g*n for?

Safety?

Well, yeah, sure.

Hey, Matt...

it's me, Ray.

You're looking at me

like you don't even know me.

- Come on, let's go.

- Why?

The next time we saw Ray was in a courtroom.

It was quite

a media event.

Poor Ray.

They sent him to prison.

Mom?

Oh, Jody.

I'm so sorry!

It's okay.

I love you so much.

That was the first moment when I realized...

the three of us

were becoming a family.

Jody stayed with us all summer

while Lynette recovered.

The scars that were invisible

took the longest to heal.

Finally she came home

to Jody.

And on that day--

Jody?

Beth?

Hi.

Someone in my office

wants to talk to you two. Someone very important.

I knew it!

I knew it! You knew what?

I don't know,

but I just knew it. Mom!

Come on.

Keep going, keep going.

Girls,

this is Mr. Everett Graham.

You're Jody.

And you are Beth.

I recognize you both.

I couldn't turn on my TV without seeing you.

And these are the girls'

mothers. Mrs. Salerno and Mrs. Easton.

Pleased to meet you.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

Well, let me tell you

why I'm here.

I'm an attorney

and I represent a client who wishes to remain anonymous.

My client would like

to present a gift to Miss Beth Easton...

and Miss Jody Salerno.

Would you please sign these

documents to acknowledge receipt of the gift?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Congratulations,

young ladies.

Oh, my God!

I told you so!

They're rich!

My God, Jody!

Who was our mysterious benefactor?

Jody, of course, swears

it was the woman who saved her, Molly Morgan.

But was the woman who saved her

the real Molly?

We never saw her again.

I guess we'll never know

for sure.
