The Worm does not reward Chunky yet, as he asks him to relocate his house to a sunnier location, because he dislikes the constant rainfall in the current area. Still under his Hunky Chunky transformation, Chunky must pick up the Worm's house and place it on a dirt patch near the cuckoo clock tower. The patch depicts the Worm's own house. By doing so, the Worm thanks Chunky and rewards him with a Golden Banana.
