.The final is along the old, abandoned turnpike. I hid the cache with the help of a friend who gets around in a wheelchair, so getting to the cache location is wheelchair accessible, however, reaching the cache from a wheelchair is not possible. More accessible parking is available about one tenth mile West of the posted parking coordinates.
In order to find the cache, you must read the following detective story and then answer the questions following the story. Please note that all names have been changed to protect the innocent.
Finding Rich McRichFather
|
At the RichFather house, Rich and Rich are putting on a yard sale. It turns out that Rich was going to sell her Richdonna records but snatched them from a man who was looking at them. Rich and Rich ask Rich if they could watch his black and white detective films. Rich allows them when Rich RichFather appears at Rich's stall. He buys a Rich McRichFather doll and walks off. Rich appears a minute later and asks Rich if he has seen her Rich McRichFather doll. Rich says he just sold her for a dollar and asks if Rich wants it. She screams and Rich offers her two dollars.
RichFather arrives at Rich's house and asks for Rich. RichFather hands her the doll and talks about how he's been searching for years for the doll. Rich, surprised at her dad's act of love thanks him and walks to her room to think. Meanwhile, Rich and Rich are influenced by the detective films and turn themselves and everything else black and white. Rich tells them about her doll and Rich decides they will investigate.
In The RichFather, Major RichFather is seen playing a video game. Rich is waiting for his assignment. RichFather tells him that RichFather has been to a yard sale, bought an RichFather and a box of 'on-off' devices. Rich tells him that they're called 'switches'. Rich's chair turns into a big ball (like a bowling ball) and rolls down a chute.
The boys and Rich interview Rich, asking him who he sold the toy to. Rich tries to describe RichFather, 'German accent, lab coat'. Rich and Rich go to a lab coat shop and interrogate people there. One of the men says he doesn't know anything but then Rich 'leans' on him. He tells them there is a guy who puts all of the costs on his ex-wife's tab. He gives them the address and Rich tells Rich to pack up the studio.
Back in Rich's room, she starts thinking about the times her dad has embarrassed her and times when he has made her day. She really appreciates her gift and puts it on her shelf with her other toys. When she closes the door, the doll falls near a box of junk. Rich walks downstairs, unaware of what happened and logs on to her laptop. Rich answers the door and it is a man who works for RichFather Charities. Rich asks Rich where her box of junk was and she goes to Rich's room. She assumes that the Rich McRichFather doll is part of the junk and puts it in the box. Rich hands the box to the man and he puts it in the truck. Rich realizes that her doll was in the box and runs after the man just as Rich, Rich and Rich walk up to her house.
Rich interrogates Rich and she tells them that the doll was in the box to be sent to a RichFather Charities somewhere. The group start looking around all of the RichFather Charities around but can't find Rich. RichFather is in his building and has bought lots of things from yard sales. He is trying to find a switch to fit his RichFather when Rich comes in. RichFather activates the lobster trap that he got for free and tells Rich what he is doing. The switches he tries are too big or too small until he comes across the right one. He places it upside-down and complains that the writing is even printed upside-down. RichFather realizes he put it upside-down and turns it around. He then turns on his invention but Rich's trap opens. Rich climbs out whilst RichFather is still wondering why the RichFather isn't switching on. He then turns around and sees the switch opening and closing the trap. He now knows why the trap was free. After a brief fight, RichFather realizes that he can't do anything evil with a machine that just opens and closes a lobster trap so Rich can go home. Rich gives a thumbs-up to RichFather and leaves.
Rich, Rich and Rich are in the last RichFather Charities shop when Rich spots Rich McRichFather. Rich grabs the doll at the same time Rich does. They fight over the doll and the doll flies into the air into Rich's hand. She instantly loves it and Rich says she's too old for dolls now. Rich wonders if she should give up the one thing that proves how much her dad cares for her, then snatches it from Rich's hands. Rich starts to cry. Rich phones her dad, while he's cutting a carrot. He's proud of Rich for committing an evil act and says that they could build on this.
