Chomp Chapter 16 Summary

  • When Wahoo wakes up in the morning, Tuna is memorizing the Latin names of bats and Mickey is out hunting.
  • There is an airboat motor running and he figures it is taking Derek to a hospital.
  • Wahoo tells Tuna he thinks they are going to have to go home now.
  • He finds out that Tuna has run away before but always returns and believes her mother is going to leave her dad.
  • Wahoo is concerned because her dad has a gun. When he offers to buy her a plane ticket to see her mom, she refuses but is touched by the offer.
  • Right after Mickey shows up with two snakes he caught, Link walks over looking for Derek who is now missing.
  • In the distance, the airboat engine roars and Link takes off after it.
  • Gerry Germaine is the executive producer of Expedition Survival! and lives near Los Angeles.
  • He doesn't like how expensive Derek is with all of his foolish situations and bills. Raven calls Gerry to tell him Derek is missing.
  • Immediately, he tells her keep this whole problem quiet and not to call the police.
  • Gerry agrees to pay for the helicopter to help with the search, but only for only four hours because it is so expensive.
  • The morning search time is wasted because an airboat breaks down and the other boat has to tow it back.
  • Everyone packs up and brings the gear to Sickler's, where they eat and look at a map.
  • Mickey is getting ready to leave when Raven asks him to help them find Derek.
  • He agrees to help.
  • Inside Sickler's shop, Wahoo finds Tuna upset but she won't tell him anything (she did borrow a few bucks from him though) and goes to find Link and the airboat they will ride in.
