Summary
  • Spud and Bobby imagine they are digging for buried treasure. They go ask an "old salt" where to look for it. They imagine they are on a ship, the crew turns on them, and they have to steer the ship to the island. They find where the treasure is buried and start digging. The island is inhabited by cannibals and they come after them. They are startled back to reality when a Black neighbor chases them for digging in her yard.
