Dialogue[edit]

Gilligan: Well, do you know what I think?
Skipper: No.
Gilligan: That's good.
The Professor is showing isometric exercises for Mary Ann
Professor: Now, just swim against this with all your might while I pull on this reel.
Mary Ann starts swimming in lagoon while Gilligan appears
Gilligan: Oh, hi there, Professor. Say, that must be a tough one! I will help you with that!
Gilligan starts pulling with the Professor on fishing reel
Professor: No, Gilligan!
Gilligan: Don't sweat it, Professor, that looks like a tough fish you got.
Reel pulls in Mary Ann's one-piece swimsuit
Gilligan: Maybe that was a girl fish.
Gilligan is about to wish them off the island with the "Eye of the Idol". The Professor refuses to go.
Mary Ann: I'm not going.
Mr. Howell: After I reserved first class passage for 7 people?
Mary Ann: It's not fair to leave the Professor here all by himself. Excuse me.
Mary Ann steps over the luggage and stands by the Professor, who puts his arm around her waist.
Mrs. Howell: But you can't stay here alone with him without a chaperone! It isn't proper!
Skipper: Now, you pretend you're Mr. Howell, and I'll go do what you have to do.
[The Skipper walks out of the hut and then knocks on the door]
Gilligan: [sobs hysterically]
Skipper: [runs in] What is it, Gilligan?! What's the matter?!
Gilligan: I'm broke! I lost every cent I have!
Skipper: Oh, for goodness' sakes, would you stop that?!
Gilligan is looking for material to help the Professor build a bomb for a volcano, and he is speaking to Ginger.
Ginger: That's not the way they did it. I was in a movie once, and we did it differently.
Gilligan: What'd they do?
Ginger: Well, they took the handsomest man of the tribe and most beautiful woman.
Gilligan: I bet you played the part of the woman.
Ginger: Oh, Gilligan, sometimes you have such a keen and elliptical mind.
