The Troop

The boys take the spark plugs to the beach and wash them, then leave them on a rock to dry. The boat is nearly out of gas. They check the generator but it’s empty, but in the cellar, they find an extra gas can with enough to get them home. However, when they return to the beach, the spark plugs are missing. There are two wet spots on the rock, though, indicating someone took them.

Despite the wet spots, Max blames Newt. The boys throw punches until they realize this fighting isn’t solving anything and agree to stop. They realize Shelley probably took the spark plugs to lure them into one of his games.

Max and Newt search for Shelley and the spark plugs. Eventually, they smell the scent associated with the worms and know Shelley is close. They find the entrance to the dark cave he is hiding in.

Shelley can hear the boys coming and plans to eat them. Max and Newt see the spark plugs in a puddle and grab them. Shelley emerges, and they attack each other. Shelley tries to strangle Newt, but his stomach ruptures, and worms crawl out. Max and Newt flee, leaving behind the spark plugs and their flashlight.
