Chomp Chapter 25 Summary

  • Wahoo smells a fire and thinks it might be Derek, but when he finds it, he quickly crouches low.
  • In the distance, he sees Tuna and Mickey sitting down and Jared pacing by the fire.
  • Derek is gone. Dead? Hiding again?
  • The new plan is to escape with Tuna in tow and have Mickey drive.
  • Mickey tells him he can't drive because he has double vision from being hit on the head again.
  • Nice try, Mick—Jared says he will just have to drive slowly or be shot.
  • That's when Tuna smartly steps in and suggests waiting a little longer.
  • Jared makes Tuna give Mickey her pink pills.
  • Mickey taunts Jared by calling him a poor excuse for a man. Um… not smart.
  • Luckily, Jared is distracted and blows this comment off. He tells them all to get going even though the pills aren't helping Mickey yet.
  • Then Mickey gives him an ultimatum: He will only drive the boat if Tuna stays put.
  • Angrily, Jared steps close and points the gun at Mickey's heart and says he is not leaving without her.
  • Not one to back down, Mickey says he isn't leaving then. Phew, tense stuff going on.
  • Wahoo watches all of this from the bushes, totally freaking out that his dad might die right now, before his very eyes.
  • Wahoo decides to do something big to stop it from happening.
  • Now in Mickey's mind, he isn't trying to get shot but trying to protect Tuna; his mouth betrays his disgust for Jared a little too much though.
  • Waiting for Jared to shoot him or say something, Mickey is confused by the strange face the guy makes while looking behind him.
  • Tuna calls out, "Wahoo."
  • Then Wahoo bounces around and taunts Jared, who takes the bait, but Mickey doesn't attack him because he's trying to protect Wahoo now. Jared threatens to shoot Wahoo.
  • Mickey attempts to distract him from his son, so Jared shoots Mickey instead. Uh oh.
  • Wahoo sprints out and yells, "Pop," which makes Jared pleased. He is so mean.
  • Back up a bit to before Tuna is found: Derek wanders off to pee in the woods and gets lost.
  • When he hears a gunshot, he travels toward it thinking it is a rescue team.
  • Encountering an angry animal, Derek takes out his Swiss army knife.
  • We learn that wild pigs swarmed the islands after escaping pig farms, and that living in the wild has made them more dangerous and mean.
  • The boar charges and Derek runs away, but he isn't fast enough and the boar scoops him up by its tusks and flings him into a tree.
  • The pig walks away and Derek falls out of the tree. Again.
  • Wahoo checks out Mickey's shot foot, which turns out to have shattered the bones.
  • Impatient, Jared says they need to leave now and that Mickey must drive.
  • After an hour of scooping out water, they launch Link's airboat.
  • Wahoo gets up into the seat to drive, but Jared makes Mickey take the helm.
  • Mickey tries to start the engine many times but it won't start.
  • Of course, Jared doesn't believe Mickey is really trying to start it.
  • Faintly, they hear a helicopter flying.
  • Now Jared is really fuming mad and he shouts to start the engine now.
  • The engine starts, but Mickey immediately turns it off because he sees Link.
  • Link walks up and tells them to get out of his boat.
  • Jared threatens to shoot him again, so Wahoo promises to get his boat back to him—but Link wants it back now and keeps moving toward them.
  • Jared aims his gun at Link, and Wahoo tackles him into the water.
  • Since Mickey can't move with a broken foot, Tuna jumps in to help.
  • Then Link even takes a hold, but no one can get that gun from Jared.
  • Link passes out and goes under.
  • The helicopter flies closer, so Jared wants to escape and tells Mickey to get them out of there.
  • The kids get Link to land.
  • Ready to flee, Jared grabs Tuna and drags her to the boat.
  • Wahoo tries to get her back but gets kicked in the face while doing so. Ouch.
  • Attempting to help his son, Mickey tries to stand but falls off the seat.
  • All in a panic, Jared screams at Mickey to get back up and drive.
  • With a huge arm wrapped around her neck, Tuna can't wriggle free.
  • Jared commands Mickey to get up again, and points his gun but Mickey can't move.
  • Just when Jared is about to shoot Mickey again, the chopper arrives and shines a huge spotlight on Jared.
  • Wahoo is so scared because he can see that Jared is about to shoot at the helicopter.
  • Out of nowhere, Derek springs from the woods and runs right up to Jared, tackles him and Tuna into the water, and Tuna pops up with the gun.
  • Derek pins Jared underwater and chomps down on his throat. Whoa, we never saw this coming.
