Hi, Daisy.
How you doing?
Isn't this a beautiful place to be, Daisy?
There's so much to be doing around here.
- Jenny...
- I'll race you to the bottom.
Oh, Toby, you know you can't beat me.
Come on.
Let's go.
Come on, Daisy!
♪ ♫ ♪
Come on, Crust.
( huffing exhale )
Come on.
- Are you sure you cut the main root? - Yeah.
It's moving, it's going to go any second.
I've never seen that cabin before.
" Are you sure you got the right cabin? "
I'm sure.
It's at old Jake's claim.
" Old Jake's claim? There's no one supposed to be in there."
Well, there is now.
" Come on in. We'll check it out when you get in here. "
Roger.
Chopper One, out.
Did you see the helicopter?
Yeah, we saw it.
I wonder who it was?
These are for you. They're so pretty, mom.
- Oh, they're beautiful.
Okay, come on, everybody. Let's go.
- Okay.
Ready?
Dad...
why don't we just move the garden.
Because, this is the richest soil.
Then why don't it feed us?
Why don't you quit asking so many silly questions and help us push.
Okay, on three. One...
Two...
Three...
Everybody alright?
You okay, mom?
I think so.
It's dad's fault.
Yeah, it's dad's fault.
Well, this is our garden.
Let's get this thing out of the way.
Oh, no.
My clothes!
My long-johns!
Hey!
They got my long-johns!
- Ohh... my laundry!
Get out here! Go on!
Get out of here! Get out of here!
Come on! Let it go!
Get out of here!
Let it go! Drop it!
Let it go! Let it go!
Toby, catch my sweater! Go on! Hurry!
Toby!
I got it!
Toby, get that sweater off that bear!
I'm trying!
Ow!
Hey, not you too! Get out of here! Git!
Let go! Let go!
Ohh... what I wouldn't give for a washing machine!
One for the Robinsons...
one for the worms.
One for the Robinsons...
one for the worms.
Yeah, we'll have some real fat ones, for fishing.
Right, dad?
Mmm... I can taste these vegetables already.
Mom...
do you know that song I learned in nursery school about farming.
How could I forget? You had us singing it for months.
I remember, Toby cried every time it came to the United States Preamble.
I don't remember that.
Well, you were just a baby then, Toby.
Samson, now you get right out of here and you stay out!
Aw, mom...
stop picking on Samson.
Samson, you heard what the lady said.
You better get out here.
- It's the plane! - Yeah, come on, let's go.
Boy, now we can get some fishing done, right dad?
Right.
Toby, grab the rope.
Okay, dad.
Hi...
Hi. How are ya?
Geez, great to see you.
How ya doin'? Good to see you.
- Hi, Tommy. - Hi, Pat.
You're really looking well.
Thank you. I feel great.
I hope you brought my garden supplies.
- We sure did.
And my fishing pole? - You bet.
- Give me a hand with this radio.
Sure, glad to do it.
Okay, let's go to the cabin.
Sharon has a boyfriend who is sixteen.
It's difficult to keep up.
Just as long as I read them in order.
[ laughs ]
- What?
Nothing.
What?
- Nothing.
You're not going to tell me.
No.
How's grandma?
Says she's fine last April.
I'm just getting to May.
Yep, she broke up with him.
Mother's sick.
What's wrong mom?
Your grandmother is ill.
Is it serious?
She doesn't say.
I don't know, maybe I shouldn't worry about it.
I should be with her.
Don't worry about it. She's fine mom.
Yeah..... I hope so.
Of course she is, it just takes a little time.
Dad...
isn't that the helicopter we saw yesterday?
Sure looks like it.
Maybe he's lost.
No, he's not lost. He's looking us over.
Well, looks like we're going to get some company.
Howdy.
- Howdy.
My name's Skip Robinson.
My wife Pat...
Jenny... Toby.
Brooks, United States Forest Service.
- What can I do for you?
You want to tell me why that.. that cabin is there?
We built it there. It's our home.
According to our records,
no one has lived here since old Jake died, over three years ago.
That's right. Old Jake was my uncle.
He used to live in that other place, up there.
Well...
looks like you've got a problem.
How's that?
This property is a mining claim.
Not a vegetable garden.
You do know that this property has a mining claim, don't you?
Yeah, Jake mined it for a couple of years.
We inherited it from him.
Uh, Mr. Brooks, would you like to come in for a cup of coffee?
No ma'am. I'm running late.
Well, for your sake...
I hope that.. there's nothing wrong with your claim.
Son...
you want to get out of my Chopper.
Toby... come on.
You know better than that.
Nice meeting you.
- Really.
Bye.
He wasn't here just to see who we are.
He really meant business.
He didn't know we were related to Uncle Jake.
But, this is our cabin.
We built it.
We sure did.
There's nothing to worry about.
The guy is just concerned that we're going to develop the area.
And that's it.
We are surrounded by government property here.
Well, I just hope he doesn't come back.
Me neither.
[ yelling distant ]
Hey. what's that?
- " Help! Help! "
You know, what it sounds like...
Get out of here!
Dang nab-bit, bear!
Flore!
Boomer!
Help! Help!
You get out of here!
Help!
I'm coming!
Get them chickens!
Crust! Leave him alone!
Don't worry! I'll get 'em, Boomer!
Whoa, Flore! Whoa!
Whoa, boy! Whoa!
You big overgrown mustang!
I got one!
Uh, ... ha!
Look at the ghost.
Good to see you again, old boy.
Well, it's good to see you. - What's all the ruckus, man?
Dang fool bear, sure spoiled my surprise.
Here Boomer.
I was bringing them as a present for your mom and dad.
- Whew!
Well, howdy there, pilgrim. How are you?
Great.
Look what I got for you.
It's real.
It looks like a snake.
But, it's really a whistle.
It used to belong to your great Uncle Jake.
He used to use this...
to call all the critters out of the forest with it.
Gee, thanks.
[ whistle sound ]
Gee, it works.
Yes, sir. I reckon that's enough presents for everybody.
[ clears throat ]
Help me out here.
Got something stuck in my pocket.
It's really stuck. I just can't get it out.
Help me...
and watch it there.
Looks like a box to put your doo-dadds in.
I'll call it, my doo-dadd box.
Sorry, about the ruckus.
You're just in time for breakfast.
Oh, now, Mrs. Robinson, I doubt very much if I can stay for breakfast.
You see, I got a long ways to go.
- Boomer...
I wish you would. There is something I want to talk to you about.
Well, now that's a horse of a different color.
Mrs. Robinson, I'd like to stay for breakfast.
We ain't going to eat you, don't worry about it now.
Come on, Boomer.
Boomer!
What do you know about mining claims?
Mining claims, why?
Well, we had some forest guy snooping around here today...
and he was sure asking alot of funny questions.
Well, he was probably just making sure you were settling the land right.
You know, properly according to all that legal mumbo-jumbo...
I wouldn't put too much stock in.
And old Jake would have taken care of that, right?
Oh, he did.
Now, I knowd he did.
You see he had to prove he was mining the place...
in order to get the land.
Boomer, this is our home.
What do we do, if we have a problem?
Now, Mrs. Robinson, don't you worry none.
No, it's probably some government fellow...
come out here trying to worry folks,
showing how important he is.
Nothing to worry about, at all.
I sure hope you're right, Boomer.
There is one thing though.
Well, what's that?
Pass them pancakes.
Okaayyy...
[ Toby blowing whistle ]
Boomer...
when you going mining again?
Any day now, Toby.
Delilah will call me when she's ready.
See that's it.
Yep.
That's a good lady, that old mountain.
So, that's where you been mining.
Yep.
It sure is.
Where exactly?
Well, I'll tell you, Toby.
That's a problem.
I ain't found that pot of gold, yet.
But, it's up there.
Just waiting for me.
I'll get it one of these days. You wait and see.
You really love that old mountain, don't you Boomer?
Oh, Miss Jenny, me and her have been going steady, for years and years.
Aw, that's mush.
Well, maybe so.
But, Miss Jenny, she knows what I mean, don't ya?
[ blowing whistle ]
[ Boomer laughing ]
Ugh... both of you.
[ blowing whistle ]
Looky there.
What did I tell you?
[ blowing whistle ]
Hold it.
Alright kids, just keep moving.
Don't nobody make no sudden moves or nothing.
Toby, keep blowing that whistle.
Miss Jenny, look back.
Oh, look, Toby.
They're following us.
That's because it's old Jake's whistle.
Looky there.
- It's like magic. - No, it's the sound.
I can't believe it.
Come here. Over here. Come on, Toby. Come on.
Hurry up. Come on.
Sit down, be real quiet now.
Looky.
That varmit over there, he's listening.
Look at that.
Keep blowing it, Toby, don't stop.
Well, look at that.
Yeah.
Ain't that something.
Wow, it sure is.
They know it's old Jake's whistle.
Oh, how them critters loved him.
Ah... Choo!
AHH... CHOO!!
Boomer...
I'm sorry.
It's okay, Boomer.
[ snoring ]
Time for you to go to bed, son.
Dad...
Good night. Pleasant dreams.
Dad...
where's Boomer going to sleep?
He'll sleep out in... Jake's old cabin.
Jake's old cabin?
In Jake's old cabin!?
But, Skip, what about the bears?
The bears sleep outside in the summer time, Boomer.
So, there's nothing to worry about.
You sure about that?
I'm that positive.
Well, okay, I guess. In that case, I'll be hitting it.
- Bye, Boomer. - Good night, Toby.
Sweetheart.
Good night, Boomer.
[ owl hooting ]
[ hooting ]
[ yawning ]
[ snoring ]
Guess I was dreaming.
Maybe, it was something I ate.
- [ Boomer belches ] - [ owl hoots ]
Thank you.
What in tarnation is going on out there?
That's the trouble round here.
Seems there's always somebody knocking on the door.
[ owl hoots ]
[ low growl ]
There now, you watch it. Just make yourself to home.
There's a nice soft bed in there.
There ain't room enough for both of us.
Oh, my goodness gracious.
Aghh!
Boomer...
where you going?
Going mining, Toby.
Old Delilah, she's been a calling to me.
Got to get them gold nuggets.
Can I come too?
Now, Toby, you and I had this conversation before, remember?
I'd love for you to come with me, but
you're just too valuable, to your momma and your daddy.
Well...
good luck.
We're going to miss you.
Thank you, Skip.
Here's some lunch for your journey.
Have a nice trip. Come back and see us real soon.
I will, Mrs. Robinson.
Boomer...
I love you.
I love you too, Toby.
Yep... be seeing you.
You take good care, huh.
Toby, do you miss the kids in L. A.
Yeah, sometimes.
I wonder what they're doing?
They're probably at the beach.
Or, on a date.
All you think about is boys, boys, boys.
Aw, Toby,
maybe you'll like girls one of these days.
No way.
I'm going to be a mountain man like Boomer.
Come on.
You're a pretty girl aren't you.
I don't know what I'd do, if I had to leave this place.
Me neither, I mean we got so many friends.
Right, Crust?
It really looks beautiful.
Yep.
Well...
let's go get some more berries for mom, huh.
Good idea.
Toby, look. It's a bobcat.
Stop! No!
Crust, come back here!
Come on!
Crust!
Go get him, Crust!
Crust!
Go get him!
Go on!
Get out of here!
Go on scat!
Go on cat!
She's still alive.
She's trembling all over.
Is she gonna die?
No, but she needs help.
I think I can carry her.
You did well, Crust.
Mom...
Skip...
What happened?
Bobcat got her.
I'll go get some water.
And some rags, too.
Crusty, got that bobcat gone.
Take it easy, Daisy.
Dad, why did the bobcat do it?
He was looking for a meal, son.
She'll be alright in a couple days.
She sure was lucky.
Yeah...
Let's go!
Yayyy...!
Happy 4th of July... everybody!
Boy, we're going to have fun!
♪ ♫ ♪
Okay, who's ready to get fat?
- I am.
Sure looks delicious.
Ohh...
Happy Fourth of July.
Big piece or small?
Gigantic!
Gigantic.. er.
Okay...
everybody...
get up very slow...
and don't move fast.
Move and give me your hand.
Come on. Let's move, let's go. Get out of here.
- Oh, no.
- No...
he's eating the cake.
He sure likes the icing.
Skip, this is terrible. What are we going to do?
I don't know.
Maybe, he'll get a tummy ache and go away.
Why aren't you and Toby speaking?
Because, he thinks I lost his whistle.
Did you?
No, I didn't.
[ bird caws ]
[ Toby giggling ]
I don't believe it.
Hey, get away from there!
Get away from my washing!
[ Toby laughing ]
Well...
you're a big help.
The Raven stole a clothes pin.
Yes...
I heard they do steal things.
What's up with you and Jenny, Toby?
I thought Jenny lost the whistle.
Did you find it?
I think the Raven stole it.
The Raven?
Yeah.
Oh, no.
Looks like a bad one. Come on, let's get out of here.
[ thunder loud ]
Oh, no.
[ thunder ]
Come on.
[ goat baa's! ]
[ chickens clucking ]
Check the chicken coop!
They're fine dad!
Dad, what's that?
Get across the bridge, quick!
Get up higher, go on!
Look out, Toby!
Do you see them?
Nope.
You okay, son?
- Yeah!
[ thunder ]
- Come on, get in.
What happened to you guys? We were so worried.
Flash flood, we lost the goat.
Oh, no.
Dad, almost got caught in the flood.
I hope my garden's alright.
Here, here.
- Crust! - Crust!
aggh... !
- Crust! Get out of here.
Oh, Skip. What are we going to do?
- This mess... - Check the fire.
At least it's dry in here.
Oh, no.
Get a bucket.
[ thunder loud ]
[ thunder crash ]
[ thunder loud ]

[ quiet ]

Take this.
I worked so hard on that garden.
It's not too late to plant another one. It's going to be alright.
Going to be alright?
My garden is completely destroyed!
My mother is ill and I am so worried about her!
If your mother was worse, we would have heard something by now.
Hear from her... in this place?!
Skip, I'm leaving.
You're leaving?
I have to get out of this place. I can't go on like this.
Everything we have is here, Pat.
Please...
I have to go.
I just can't take it any longer.
Okay then...
we'll go to Los Angeles and see if we can help.
No...
I'm going on my own.
[ singing softly ]
Hope mom comes back soon.
She'll be back, Toby.
She just went to visit grandma, that's all.
But, maybe she won't come back.
Don't worry, Toby.
She loves us.
[ music ]
[ music continually playing ]
[ music ends ]
[ bird squawks ]
Hey!
Come back here with my pencil !
Hey! Come back here!
[ barking in distance ]
[ bird squawks ]
Yep, there's my whistle.
ughh...!
Toby!
What are you doing up there?!
Come down here, right now!
I can't... I'm stuck!
Alright, stay right there. Don't move!
I'm going to go get dad, alright?! Just stay right there!
Dad!
DAD!
What?!
Toby's in trouble!
Hurry!
Toby!!
Just hang on!!
I'm coming up to get you!!
I'm right behind you.
Don't move.
Okay... you're going to be alright.
I'm right here.
- You're going to be alright. - Right, dad.
Okay.
Now, you're not to look down.
Alright?
Okay.
Here we go, real slow.
Put your left foot down all the way to that rock piece.
Okay, stay here for a second.
Aghh...!!
Toby!
aghh...!
ugh!
Alright.
Stay there.
Don't look down.
What did you think you were doing?
I had to get my whistle.
Do you know you could have gotten yourself killed?!
Do you?!
Don't ever do that again, alright?
And another thing...
heights scare me to death.
Come on.
Good night, son.
Good night, dad.
Good night, Bandido.
Well, maybe you're mother was right, Jenny.
Do you miss the city?
My friends, yeah.
And I suppose school.
Think you'd be happier in L. A.?
Huh, that's pretty hard to imagine.
Let me ask you something.
What would you want to do, if mom doesn't come back?
The most important thing to me is you, mom and Toby.
It really doesn't matter where we live.
Just so long as we love one another and...
Stick together?
Yes.
Right.
What?
Well, I was thinking that if... uh...
if she doesn't show up pretty soon...
we're going to go back to the city.
For good?
Don't know.
Toby, Jenny, come on. Up and at 'em! Let's go!
Dad...
Toby's not here.
What do you mean, he's not here?
He's not up there?
Crust, slow down.
You know, when we find Boomer...
he's going to let us help him in the mine.
Whew...
That sure will be fun.
Toby!!
He's headed for the high country.
Wolf tracks.
Get 'em, Crust!
Toby!
Toby, where are you?!
Toby!
Are you alright?!
Dad...
Are you alright? Are you hurt?
I'm fine.
I'm sorry I left home.
Why'd you do it?
I wanted to find Boomer.
I'm sorry.
I almost lost you.
It's mom!
Come on!
I told you she'd be back.
- Mom! - Mom!
Toby...
Mom...
Oohhh....
I missed you so much.
We missed you too, mom.
Don't leave again.
Welcome home, Pat.
Skip...
Ohh...
Mom, what is this?
Yeah, what is it?
A little project, that's perfect for my handyman.
- Oh, yeah? - Mm... hmm.
- Really?
What is it, mom?
Whoa..!
What.. is .. in.. here?
You'll see.
I have messages from your friends.
And lots of goodies.
Oh, great.
And thank you most of all, for bringing mom home safely.
Amen.
- Amen. - Amen.
Amen.
Thanks for the presents.
Yeah, they were great, thanks mom.
Yeah, they were, mom.
I love you all so much.
Well, we had a...
few difficulties here and there...
but nothing very major.
Yeah, I bet.
Did the Forest man come back?
Nope.
Good, I was so worried.
Skip, I really needed the trip.
It really helped me.
Yeah, I know it did.
I'm glad you're mom is recovering.
Yeah...
she helped me alot, too.
How's that?
She told me to go back to my family where I belong.
Good for her.
You know...
I don't suppose, I have to tell you, how much I missed you.
Come here.
Oh, Skip.
I don't ever want to go back.
First snow, on the peaks.
Better get the garden harvested.
Let's go.
Yahoo! Let's go, everybody.
Ha, ha, gang. Let's go.
Come on Sampson, get out of there.
Stay.
Mr. Brooks...
Good afternoon.
Ma'am...
Good afternoon.
Mr. Robinson,
our records indicate...
that... uh...
there's been no mineral assets off this property, for the past two years.
Under U.S. Land Use Law 93,
SECTION 7100...
you are hereby served.
Read that paper, carefully.
And, uh...
I advise you to comply, promptly.
It says here, Notice of Eviction.
You will remove yourselves and property from this parcel.
This land will be returned to it's original condition.
And this cabin will be leveled.
Your kicking us out of our home, Mr. Brooks.
- Mr. Robinson, you are living on government property.
May you continue to reside here,
if you can prove, you have a qualified mining claim.
I can't believe this. You wouldn't do this to us.
Easy Crust.
Only carrying out my orders, ma'am.
Dad...
" Are we going to leave for back home, dad. "
" Not if we can find a legal mining claim. "
We've got to find Boomer, son.
Boomer!!
You hear that?
No.
Stay here and hold the dog. I'm gonna take a look on top.
- Crust.
Boomer!!
No, Crust.
Stay!
Toby!
Let the dog loose!
Crust!
Stay!
Turn the dog loose!
Turn him loose!
Stay! Stay!
Toby...!
Let the dog loose!
Get out of here!
Whoa!
Toby! Let the dog go!
What?
- Let him go! What did you say, dad?
Let the dog go!
What?!
Let him go!
Let the dog loose!!
Let him go!!
What?
Ohh....!
Dad...!
Dad, are you okay?!
Dad, are you alright?
Why didn't you let the dog go?
Dad, I was only doing what you told me.
Yeah, but that was before the bear.
Didn't you see the bear?
[ Growl ]
Here he comes now! Go get him, Crust!
Come on. Let's get out of here!
Crust!
Come on, Crust! That's enough!
Come on!
Come on, Crust!
Good dog. - Come on! Good!
Gee dad, that was a big bear, wasn't it?
You're telling me?
Did you find anything?
I'll know in a minute.
Look at that...
What is it?
How much is it worth?
I'd say, it's uh... " this "
and 4 quarters will get you a dollar.
- Oh, yeah.
Will it? - Really.
Now, I know how the old miners felt.
Yeah, hungry.
I'm starved.
Let's go eat.
[ yelling ]
What is it?
Sounds like Boomer.
- Oh, Skip, we forgot Samson. - Oh, no...
Boomer!
Whoa...!
Help!
Help!!
Go on! Get out of here, Samson!
Get out! Go on!
Go on, Samson. Come on. Cool it. Go on.
Get away.
Are you alright?
Yeah...
I'm fine now.
Before that bear came, I had everything under control.
Ah... ah... agh... !
Oh, Boomer! You're not hurt, are you?
Of course not.
It's about that time of year for my bath, anyway.
We,ve been looking for minerals.
Yeah, we got bad trouble. You oughta hear.
Look, Skip, I don't mean to be disrespectful or nothing but...
do you mind if we talk about this back at the cabin?
You see, I think alot better, when my britches ain't wet.
Ok, we'll go back to the cabin.
- Aw, Boomer.
I can't believe it.
You mean that man told you, you only have 90 days left?
That's what the man said.
Damn, his hide anyway.
Gotta be something around here.
Wait a minute, I got it.
Why don't all of us form the Robinson booming mining corporation?
Whoa...Yay!!
You mean take over Jake's old mine. - That's right.
You think we can find it?
Well, Skip, with all of us looking, we got to.
Well, I'll tell you, that sounds pretty good to me.
Oh, Boomer, we really appreciate it.
I'll tell you what... why don't we seal the bargain...
with another piece of that there pie?
Okaay....
Samson, we got lots of things to do, big time.
Alrighty, gettin' ready to strike it rich? - Yep.
Dad, can Samson come, too?
Okay with me, if it's okay with Flora?
No, by cracky, it ain't okay with Flora.
And it ain't okay with me neither.
You see, we ain't going no where, where there's no pesky bear.
I thought you were going to say that.
No, son. Let's go. Come on, he can't come with.
Sorry, Samson. You can't come.
It ain't that I got nothing against bears, you understand...
it's just that we got what you big city doctor's call, basic personality disorders.
Look...
sounds like trouble.
Aw, it's terrible.
- That guy is ruining everything.
Alright, I'd better go back to the cabin, Boomer.
I'll try and catch up with you later, alright?
- Okay, see you, Boomer. - Yeah, alright.
Skip, don't ya'll worry about nothin'...
me and Flore will take care of everything.
- Okay, bye.
Watch your step there, girl. Come on now, let's go easy.
Run, Flore!
Run!
By golly,
...old Samson.
I always did love that old bear.
Dang it, Flore, stop that.
You know I love you, too, don't get jealous.
You've had more than enough fun this morning, anyhow.
Time I went and got that mine.
Now, now, come on now. Come on now, stop it.
Mmm... yeah...
Mr. Robinson... - Howdy...
It's been three months. Do you have proof of claim?
No, we're still looking.
Well, your time is up.
My orders are, to see that you are evicted.
We need an extension, Mr. Brooks.
Sorry.
But, there must be someone... - The rules are clear, ma'am.
You either abide by the law or off you go.
We're not leaving, Brooks.
We'll see about that, Mr. Robinson.
Yes, we will.
Skip, he's from the Department of Interior.
Talking with him, is like talking to a wall.
We're not going to give up, are we?
- Dad, what are we going to do?
- Oh, no. - Get some buckets!
And some blankets! - Okay.
We got to get him out of there, before that other tank explodes!
I got him!
Watch out!
Here!
Take care of him! - Okay!
- Watch it! Get back!
Get some dirt on those bushes.
His name is Phil Brooks. He is with the U.S. Forest Service.
He's got a fractured left arm...
looks like he might have some broken ribs...
cuts and bruises on his legs and some minor burns.
" Any serious bleeding? [ radio static ]
No, it doesn't look like it, Mike.
- Mom... [ on radio ] - Okay.
" Just keep him bandaged and lying down."
" Don't move him. I'll be flying first thing in the morning."
Okay, doc. I guess that's about it.
" How about the rest of you? "
We're fine, minor burns, that's about all.
" Good. I'll see you in the morning. "
This is 63 Apple Rubin, Out.
Hey, how you doin'?
Oh... alright.
Much better, thanks to you folks.
And uh...
can't tell you how much I appreciate, what you done for me.
Sorry, we had to meet under these circumstances.
You're really fine people.
Well, you'd just better rest and.. uh...
we're going to have you flown out tomorrow.
[ grunting ]
Dad, it's Flora.
Boomer?
Boomer!
Boomer?!!
Dad, Boomer ain't around.
You'd think he'd have heard that explosion...
and seen the smoke, you know?
Dad, do you think he's in trouble?
Maybe, we ought to find him.
We're going to look.
[ hooting ]
- Agh...
it scared me.
[ Crust barks ]
[ wolves howling distant ]
[ wolf howling ]
Dad...?
It's alright, son.
They're far away.
Come on, Crust.
- Dad? - Yeah.
Are we ever gonna find, Boomer?
I don't know.
I hope so.
Boomer!
- Boomer!
- Boomer! Where are you?
I don't know what we're going to do.
This is all we have, everything.
I've been in the service for thirty years.
I could have retired six months ago.
I wish I had.
I wouldn't have discovered this cabin and I wouldn't have to do this.
But, if you didn't do this, someone else would.
We really tried, you know?
My husband and the children.
And that dear old mountain man.
It's funny...
All this time I've been fighting with myself, wondering,
if this is really where I wanna be?
Raise my children...
and now that we have to leave...
I really realized how much I'm going to miss this place.
Mrs. Robinson...
please, don't.
I'm so sorry, please don't, Mrs. Robinson.
- Dad...
we'll never find Boomer?
Sure we will, son.
Here eat something.
- Jenny?
- I'm not hungry.
What's that?
I don't know.
There it is again. Hope it isn't that grizzly.
If it is, I'm ready for him this time.
It'll be fine.
- It sounds like it's coming from over that hill.
Hey, it's Samson.
Boomer!
Is he in that cave, dad?
Dad, what happened?
Looks like a cave-in.
Boomer could be trapped in there.
Crust.. get back!
Boomer?
Boomer!
Okay, you kids go on back out.
Take the dog with you. Go on. Hurry.
It's alright.
Come here. Crust, come here.
Stay with him.
Boomer?
Dad!!
I can't see him.
Boomer, are you in there?!
Boomer?
[ faint ] - Skip.
Boomer? Are you alright?
[ faint ] - Is that you, Skip?
Yeah!
Now, you hold on! I'm coming in after you!
Boomer!
Are you alright?
I think so, Skip.
Sure do wish, you wouldn't stop digging on my account.
Dad!
Dad!!
Can you move your legs?
Well, I can move the right one.
It's the other one that's stuck.
I think the left one broke free, Skip.
- Dad. - We're all right, son.
Hey, Boomer. You, okay?
Am I glad to see you.
Oh...
- Boomer. - Boomer.
Did you find the gold nugget?
No, Toby, I'm afraid, I didn't.
We found, Boomer. That's what's important.
Now, wait a minute, Skip. Just hold your tatters...
because, I didn't say, I found nothin'.
Here, take a gander at that.
What is it?
That my friend, is quartz.
Quartz?
I.. I don't understand what it means?
It means, that we got ourselves a mining mineral.
This is a genuine mining mineral?
That's right.
In our genuine mining claim, there?
In Old Jake's claim.
And that's it?
Yes, sir.
We go talk to that government man and show him this.
That means, we go talk to him.
That means you're going to stay.
- Yayy! - Whoo! Hoo!
That means we'll all be eating your ma,s vittle's.
We all get to stay here!
We're going fishing.
I tell you, we're all going to have a good time!
Yes, sir. Let's go, Crust.
I don't see a trace of mineral, worth commercial value...
in any of this stuff.
Alright, what about, look it, right there?
How about that?
That ain't quartz, only pieces of pyrite.
Worthless.
- Okay.
Now, we ain't saying that we found no settler's mill or nothing...
but, I've been around these hills all my life
and I'm telling you right now...
that there, is a mining mineral.
I can smell it.
Well, I can't see it.
Watch your eyes, ma'am.
Uh...
- uhh...
Well, um...
Yeah, ...
this is interesting.
You can smell it, too?
I don't know...
could be a possibility.
a trace.
Still...
maybe, you could send me a yearly supply, of this.
I think, that can be arranged, Mr. Brooks.
Don't you, Boomer?
Oh, anything for the government.
Yay! We're staying!
Whoo! Hoo!
