Brief Overview of “Who Poisoned Willy Wonka?"
The five winners of the Golden Tickets, Willy Wonka and their creator Roald Dahl gather at a resort in London for the Willy Wonka and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Reunion. Many of Dahl’s characters are set for the weekend of their lives, culminating in one guest receiving a humanitarian award and a lifetime supply of chocolate, but not all is as it seems.
Many, if not all, of the guests have ulterior motives for attending the bash. A large dinner is served on the night of their arrival. Some know each other, some are just getting acquainted.
An announcement is made at dinner. The court has ordered the factory to award $20 billion dollars to recent guests because of accidents that occurred at the factory. The people at the reunion are the only members of the public who have ever toured the factory. Charlie and Wonka can’t agree on the terms of the recipients of the settlement.
Charlie wants to divide it evenly between all present. Wonka is eccentric, he wants to omit one person of his choosing, and divide the money between everyone else. They draw straw to see who gets to divide the money. Wonka wins.
One condition: the money must be distributed by 3 p.m. d on a stipulation in the settlement that states should Wonka become incapacitated by no actions of his own and the money was not distributed by 3 pm today – the settlement would be cancelled by court order and the money will go to his heir(s).
The group disbursed.
