Charlie fails to find a golden ticket on his birthday, while Violet Beauregarde and Mike Teavee claim the third and fourth tickets. As winter worsens and the Buckets grow weaker, Charlie discovers a dollar, buys chocolate, and miraculously finds the final golden ticket.

Charlie and the other children meet Willy Wonka, explore the chocolate river, and learn about the Oompa-Loompas. When Augustus Gloop falls into the river and is sucked up a pipe, Wonka assures his parents he’ll be fine before leading the rest on a wild boat ride through the factory’s tunnels.
Class 3
In the inventing room, Violet ignores Wonka’s warnings and chews his experimental three-course meal gum, swelling into a giant blueberry. The tour continues past marvelous rooms until Veruca Salt demands a trained squirrel and is tossed with her parents down the garbage chute.

Mike Teavee shrinks himself to an inch tall by jumping into Wonka’s camera, and his frantic parents carry him off. With only Charlie left, Mr. Wonka reveals that he has won the factory, whisks him and his family away in the glass elevator, and promises them a new life.
