When local developers want to buy the entire Goon Docks to demolish and convert into a golf course, a group of kids who call themselves "Goonies" decide to have one last adventure together. They follow an old treasure map that leads them into a series of underground caverns built in the 1600s by a legendary pirate named "One-Eyed" Willie. They eventually find Willie's ship and the lost booty, but along the way they are followed and hunted down by a group of criminals called the Fratellis. While the Goonies try to escape them, the Fratellis accidentally set off a booby trap that demolishes the cave and lets Willie's ship sail free. Luckily, Mikey's marble bag held a handful of large precious stones, saving the Goon Docks from its golf course future.
