| - 26-Year-Old Arnold: [Narrating] It was night time in my childhood home of Hillwood, which is now a historical landmark because of the 'Tomato Incident'. Luckily, the neighborhood is safe instead of being a futuristic mall by Scheck's FTI Corporation. But 1 thing that’s been troubling me is that I saved the neighborhood, the city that my grandpa grew up in, the city that my dad was raised and the city where I was raised in. And my parents weren't there to see it. Grandpa read me all of the stories in my dad's journal about the real adventures of him and my mom's adventures in San Lorenzo. I was then surprised that he didn't find this..........A MAP! Arnold: “A MAP!” Arnold: “It must be the last route my parents took on their last trip to the jungle.” Arnold: “Grandma, Grandpa, you have to see this, I found a map!" Arnold runs right into the Sunset Arms Boarding House looking very excited. Grandpa Phil comes downstairs in his pajamas……. Grandpa Phil: “Oh, Arnold, what’s with the hubbub?” Arnold: “Grandpa, look what I found!” Arnold shows Grandma Gertrude and Grandpa Phil the map that his dad, Miles had drawn. Grandpa Phil: “Holy guacamole, it really is!” Grandma Gertrude: “This could really be the answer.” Grandpa Phil: [Sighs Depressingly] “I’m terribly sorry, Arnold, your parents... well they have been lost for so many years, and maybe something terrible happened to them and well.....we don’t have the cash.” Arnold: “I got this and I’m not gonna give up, with this map, I can try and find a new way, it might take me a couple of years, but who knows?” Grandpa Phil: “Well, anyway, goodnight, Arnold, your 1st day of 5th grade is getting closer, so get some shut eye.” Arnold: “I will, goodnight, grandma, goodnight grandpa.” Grandma Gertrude and Grandpa Phil: “Goodnight Arnold." Meanwhile in Arnold’s bedroom…….. Arnold: “I found the map that you drew, Dad, and don’t worry about it, Mom, I will find you 2, even though it takes me a couple of years to do it.” Fade to a black screen……
