The story

16-year-old Miranda has been abandoned by her mother, and has dropped out of school.

Charlie is supposed to have recovered, but he rambles on with strange theories.

Armed with a metal detector and a stack of treasure-hunting books, he finds reason to believe that the gold is underneath the local Costco, and encourages Miranda to get a job there so they can plan a way to excavate it.
