CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON BEACH - MORNING

	The skipper is sitting before a fire cooking 
	breakfast. Gilligan walks on camera looking for 
	something to do.

				GILLIGAN
			Morning skipper!

				SKIPPER
			Morning Gilligan!

				GILLIGAN
			Can I help sir?

				SKIPPER
			Sure you can.

				GILLIGAN
			What do you want me to do?
			(PAUSE)
			I know, sit down and shut up.

				SKIPPER
			What?

				GILLIGAN
			That's what you always say if I ask if I 
			can help.

				SKIPPER
			I do!? 
			Sit down and shut up!?

				GILLIGAN
			Uh huh.

				SKIPPER
			Well why should I say a thing like that?

				GILLIGAN
			I guess because you think I'll goof 
			something up.

				SKIPPER
			Well of course you'll goof something up 
			Gilligan. But that's still no way to talk 
			to my little buddy.

				GILLIGAN
			No it isn't. As a matter of fact I'm 
			getting tired of it skipper. And someday 
			I'm libel to jump ship. If we ever get on 
			a ship again.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan you're absolutely right, and I'm 
			sorry. But you know how I am. I spout 
			things off without even thinking. But I 
			promise I'll keep a check on myself from 
			now on. OK?

				GILLIGAN
			OK.

				SKIPPER
			Still ship mates!?

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

				SKIPPER
			Good. Well I'll get this breakfast ready 
			for the folks.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper can I help?

				SKIPPER
			Sure you can Gilligan!

				GILLIGAN
			What do you want me to do?

			  SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN
			Sit down and shut up.

				MR HOWELL
				 (O.S.)
			Oh good morning there!

	Mr. and Mrs. Howell walk on camera.

				MRS HOWELL
			Good morning Gilligan, good morning 
			captain, what's on the menu for breakfast 
			this morning?

				SKIPPER
			Fruit and powdered eggs.

				MR HOWELL
			Wonderful, we'll have some powdered eggs 
			benedict.

	Gilligan looks up at the sky.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper it's starting to rain.

				SKIPPER
			Rain?
			Don't be silly Gilligan.

				GILLIGAN
			I just felt a rain drop on my nose. It's 
			all wet!

				MR HOWELL
			Oh that just means that you're feeling 
			good.

				MRS HOWELL
			Oh Thurston that only applies to dogs!

				MR HOWELL
			Oh you're so right I'm sorry boy.

	Mr. Howell pats Gilligan's shirt

				(CONTINUED)
			My, his coat IS wet.

				MRS HOWELL
			I felt a drop of rain too.

				MR HOWELL
			Yes you're so right Lovey.

				GILLIGAN
			Maybe we ought to find a cave or 
			something.

				SKIPPER
			Relax folks, this is just a summer 
			sprinkle. Believe me, when a real storm 
			sets in, you'll feel it!

	Just then a torrential down pour occurs. Mr. and 
	Mrs. Howell try to hide under Mrs. Howell parasol. 
	The skipper, now completely soaked, is still 
	stirring his frying pan of powdered eggs.

				GILLIGAN
			This isn't a real storm huh?

				SKIPPER
			NOOOoooo!

				GILLIGAN
			When do you think the real big storms are 
			gonna start? 

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan this is just a guess, but I'd 
			say the real big storms will start about 
			thirty seconds ago!

	Gilligan tries to take cover under the Howell's 
	parasol as the skipper continues to stir the pan, 
	which is filling up with water. He pours some of the 
	water out and continues stirring as we...

FADE TO: EXT - CLEARING - MORNING

CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

PULL BACK TO WIDE SHOT - ALL CASTAWAYS

	As the skipper starts to speak, we pull back to 
	reveal all the castaways standing together, dress in 
	some unusual outfits. The skipper is wearing what 
	appears to be a horse-riding outfit. The professor 
	is wearing a smoking jacket and ascot. Mary Ann is 
	wearing a dress and hat from what looks like the 
	roaring twenties. Ginger is wearing a beautiful fur 
	coat.  Gilligan is wearing an ill-fitting tuxedo 
	jacket with tails while Mr. and Mrs. Howell are 
	wearing just another one of their many outfits.

				SKIPPER
			Folks, today we had a little touch of bad 
			weather. At this time I'd like to say 
			thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Howell, for 
			lending us these clothes while ours are 
			drying out.

	Everyone starts to express their thanks in an Ad Lib 
	fashion.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				MR HOWELL
			Here here! Glad to be of any help 
			skipper, any time Ha...ha...ha.

				GINGER
			   (TO MRS HOWELL)
			Oh I hope it doesn't start to rain while 
			I'm wearing your beautiful coat.

				MRS HOWELL
			Don't you worry dear. That's one of those 
			new drip-dry foxes.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

	Gilligan walks on camera and over to the skipper.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper, these clothes are still wet!

				SKIPPER
			Well don't bother me with those details 
			Gilligan. Go over to the fire and dry 
			them out.

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

				GILLIGAN
			Aye, aye sir!

	Gilligan walks off camera.

				SKIPPER
			Now folks I think one of the first things 
			we must agree upon, is a permanent 
			building in which we will live. Right!?

	Everyone starts to express their acknowledgment.

				MR HOWELL
			I think that's a good idea.

CUT TO: GILLIGAN NEAR FIRE

	Gilligan is holding some clothes as he stands near 
	the fire.

				GILLIGAN
			Hey skipper!? What are we going to hang 
			these clothes on to dry?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan don't bother me about that. Use 
			your head for once!

CUT TO: GILLIGAN NEAR FIRE

	
	Gilligan has a very confused look on his face as we...

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

				SKIPPER
			Now I've drawn up a little plan, of an 
			idea that I have...

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				(CONTINUED)
				  (O.S.)
			...I think will be exactly what we need.

				MRS HOWELL
			Well I think it's very nice captain, but 
			I'd like to see some of the other models 
			before we decide.

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

	The skipper unrolls a large drawing of the hut he 
	proposes. On the back can be seen some large island 
	looking land mass.

	Mr. Howell uses his foot to lift the edge of the 
	drawing to reveal what's on the backside.

				MR HOWELL
				(POINTING)
			Yes, I like this one here, it seems to 
			have a functional floor plan and green is 
			my favorite color.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Mr. Howell, that is a map of Australia.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				MR HOWELL
			Oh, do you happen to know how much 
			they're asking for it?
				(LAUGHING)
			I hate kangaroos...

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Now folks I've only drawn one plan so if 
			any of you have any suggestions, I'd like 
			to hear them.

CUT TO: GILLIGAN NEAR FIRE

	We see Gilligan wearing Ginger's dress as he stands 
	near the fire.

				GILLIGAN
			I like it just fine skipper!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			    (SARCASTICALLY)
			Thanks a lot Gilligan.

	The skipper finally realizes Gilligan is dresses 
	funny.

				SKIPPER
			What are you doing with Ginger's dress 
			on?

CUT TO: GILLIGAN NEAR FIRE

				GILLIGAN
			Well ah...couldn't think of any other way 
			to dry it skipper.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			That's using your head for once!

CUT TO: GILLIGAN BY FIRE

	Gilligan is looking a bit embarrassed.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			What do you folks think of my plan?

				MARY ANN
			Sounds ok to me!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				GINGER
			I...I think it's fine. Could you build my 
			place down by the beach?

				MRS HOWELL
			I think we'd be more comfortable up in 
			the hills. I love the beach but weekends, 
			EVERYbody drops in!

				MR HOWELL
			Yes a hillside hut! Looking down on the 
			others!

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

	Gilligan runs on camera carrying Ginger's dress. 
	He's now wearing Mary Ann's red checked gingham 
	dress.

				GILLIGAN
			Here you are skipper, nice and dry!

				SKIPPER
			Well don't give it to me, give it to 
			Ginger!

				GILLIGAN
			Oh.

	Gilligan hands Ginger her dress.

				GILLIGAN
			Here.

				GINGER
			Hope you didn't stretch it!

				GILLIGAN
			No, and Mary Ann yours will be dry in a 
			minute. 

	Gilligan then curtsies to Mary Ann before turning 
	around and running off camera.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Now folks I want to get one thing 
			straight. We are NOT building individual 
			huts. The fact is we'll have one 
			permanent building until we are rescued.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				MRS HOWELL
			You mean all seven of us are going to 
			live in one HUT!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			It'll be a lot quicker and a lot easier 
			if we all pitch in and work together. 
			Remember the old saying, united we stand.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				MR HOWELL
			In a hut like that, that's the way we'll 
			sleep too!

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

				PROFESSOR
			I go along with the skipper.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER, MARY ANN AND PROFESSOR 

				PROFESSOR
			If that rain this morning was any 
			indication, we're in for and early storm 
			season.

				SKIPPER
			That's right professor, and that storm 
			might hit at any moment now, so we'd 
			better get to work right away.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL AND GINGER

				MRS HOWELL
			Well I guess the skippers right dear, we 
			can build our house anytime.

				MR HOWELL
			Yes but not...not like that one, you see I 
			see sort of a...a southern colonial mansion 
			with a...

CUT TO: GROUP SHOT

				(CONTINUED)
			...BIG WIDE veranda sort of bamboo column 
			you know, and we can plant the whole 
			thing with mint!

	Mr. and Mrs. Howell turn and start walking off 
	camera still discussing their new home. Their 
	conversation fades out as the get farther away.

				MRS HOWELL
			I always wanted a vacation!...

			MR HOWELL
			Yes miss Scarlet absolutely!...

				SKIPPER
			Thanks for backing me up professor.

				PROFESSOR
			Well it was the only practical solution 
			at the moment skipper.

	The professor walks off camera leaving just the 
	skipper, Mary Ann, Ginger and Gilligan in the 
	clearing.

ZOOM IN: SKIPPER, GILLIGAN, MARY ANN AND GINGER

				GINGER
			We'll do everything we can to help 
			skipper.

				SKIPPER
			Well I really don't know what you ladies 
			can do?

				MARY ANN
			Oh Anything! I used to be a girl scout, 
			and they teach you a lot!

				GINGER
			I use to go with a boy scout and they 
			teach you a lot too!

	Gilligan comes running on camera with Mary Ann's 
	dress.

				GILLIGAN
			Here you are Mary Ann, real nice and dry!

				MARY ANN
				(SWEETLY)
			Awe thanks Gilligan.

	Mary Ann and Ginger walk off camera leaving just the 
	skipper and Gilligan. Gilligan is standing next to 
	the skipper, wearing the skippers cloths. We can see 
	that the seat area of the pants is smoking.

				SKIPPER
			Bye girls.
			Thanks a lot Gilligan. Well are my 
			clothes dry yet?

				GILLIGAN
			Little too dry skipper, see.

	Gilligan turns around and we see the entire seat of 
	the skipper's pants, and the back of his shirt, have 
	been burnt away and are still smoldering. The 
	skipper is about to blow a fuse when we...

CUT TO: EXT - HUT CONSTRUCTION - DAY
WIDE SHOT - HUT UNDER CONSTRUCTION

	The skipper, professor and Mr. Howell are busy 
	working on the communal hut. Mr. Howell is applying 
	some form of black tar like water proofing material 
	to the grass thatch sides of the hut. The professor 
	is standing on a ladder working on the roof 
	structure. The skipper is inside the hut helping the 
	professor align some roofing material. We hear the 
	announcer of a radio news program in the background.

	The announcer can barely be heard in the background 
	as Gilligan walks on camera carrying a bamboo pole 
	with water buckets attached at either end.

				GILLIGAN
			Hi professor. You want a drink of water?

				PROFESSOR
			No thanks Gilligan

				GILLIGAN
			Oh.
			Hi Mr. Howell. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR HOWELL AND GILLIGAN

				(CONTINUED)
			Want a drink of water?

	Mr. Howell holds up his oversize bamboo glass to 
	indicate he's already taken care of.

				MR HOWELL
			No thank you Gillian.

				GILLIGAN
			What's that stuff?

				MR HOWELL
			Oh a...it's for weather stripping the hut. 
			It's a concoction the professor dreamed 
			up.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh yeah!? 

CUT TO: WIDE SHOT - HUT UNDER CONSTRUCTION

				(CONTINUED)
			Hey professor? You know you're really 
			great! I gotta take these into the 
			skipper.

	Gilligan starts to enter the hut with his bamboo 
	pole/water buckets. He has great difficulty getting 
	through he door way and bangs the buckets 
	repeatedly, splashing water as he does.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan will you watch...

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				(CONTINUED)
			...what you're doing!! We've got to have this 
			hut finished by tonight! There's a storm 
			brewing out there someplace!

	Gilligan has a sense of fear on his face.

				GILLIGAN
			Ohhhh!

	Gilligan is still swinging the buckets around and 
	finally hits the skipper, splashing water all over 
	him.

				SKIPPER
				(STERNLY)
			Thanks a lot Gilligan! This is the only 
			dry shirt I had left!

				GILLIGAN
			I'm sorry skipper. Are we gonna move in 
			here tonight!?

				SKIPPER
			That's what the plan is, we'll have to 
			work until we drop! Now get that water in 
			the barrel!

				GILLIGAN
			Aye, aye sir!

	Gilligan swings the buckets around again and hits 
	the skipper with a splash of water.

				SKIPPER
			      (VERY ANGRY)
			Ohhhh! Gilligan will you put that water 
			in there while I get some more palm 
			fronds!!

	The skipper walks off camera as Gilligan removes the 
	wooden lid from the barrel and empties the buckets 
	into it. After he's finished, he starts to leave the 
	hut with as much difficulty as he had when he 
	entered. He knocks down some support beams and in 
	the process almost hits Mr. Howell with the wet 
	bucket.

PULL BACK: WIDE SHOT

				MR HOWELL
			Watch it, you'll get water in my punch!

	Before he gets outside he remembers he forgot to put 
	the lid back on the barrel.

				GILLIGAN
			Uh oh!

CUT TO: CLOSE SHOT OF GILLIGAN IN HUT

	He spins around, buckets and all to go back in. He 
	makes it back to the barrel and puts the lid back 
	on.

				GILLIGAN
			That was a close one. Somebody could have 
			stepped...right...into...the...barrel?

	Gilligan now realizes someone did step into the 
	barrel. The lid slowly comes off the barrel to 
	reveal the now totally soaked skipper in a very foul 
	mood.

				SKIPPER
			Thanks to you Gilligan, somebody already 
			has!

				GILLIGAN
	I'm sorry skipper! But you shouldn't 
	stand on it, it's too dangerous! I'll go 
	get you a ladder!

				SKIPPER
			Never MIND!

				GILLIGAN
			It's OK, it's right over there by the 
			door.

PULL BACK: WIDE SHOT

	Gilligan comes out of the hut, looks at Mr. Howell 
	as he grabs for the ladder.

				GILLIGAN
			That's a real good job Mr. Howell.

				MR HOWELL
			Ah...thank you thank you.

	Gilligan grabs the ladder and gives it a quick jerk. 
	All we hear is the professor as he falls with a loud 
	thump.

				PROFESSOR
			Aaaahhhhh!

				GILLIGAN
			What was that!?

	Gilligan looks back and sees the professor lying on 
	his back on the ground. He kneels down next to the 
	professor.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF PROFESSOR AND GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Professor? Did you hear something out 
			here? 

	The professor has almost been knocked unconscious 
	and is very groggy.

				PROFESSOR
			What?

				GILLIGAN
			Oh you're taking a nap huh? That's OK, 
			cause the skipper will drive you till you 
			drop! Go back to sleep.

	Gilligan pushes the professor head back down and it 
	hits a bamboo pole with a thump. Gilligan, with 
	ladder in hand, spins around to line up the ladder 
	with the doorway and hits the bucket of weather 
	sealant, knocking it onto the head of Mr. Howell.

PULL BACK/PAN LEFT ON GILLIGAN'S MOVEMENT 

				GILLIGAN
			Oops! Uh oh!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP MR HOWELL AND GILLIGAN

	Mr. Howell has the black tar like weather proofing 
	material all over his head and is running down his 
	face. 

				GILLIGAN
			Sorry Mr. Howell.
			I really am Mr. Howell, I, guess I wasn't 
			looking.

				MR HOWELL
			Yes.

	With out saying another word, Mr. Howell takes his 
	paintbrush and paints a mustache and goatee on 
	Gilligan who then starts to walk slowly through the 
	doorway with the ladder held at shoulder height.  

				GILLIGAN
			Probably the...stupidest thing I ever did 
			in my whole...entire...life.

				SKIPPER
			Yaaah!

	Gilligan pins the skipper with the ladder against a 
	bamboo pole and nearly chokes him. 

				SKIPPER
				(STRAINED)
			Do you want to bet on that Gilligan!?

	The skipper pushes the ladder away and is ready to 
	kill Gilligan.

				SKIPPER
			    (VERY ANGRY)
			Get away! 
			Gilligan you...!

	Gilligan runs off camera with the ladder. The 
	Skipper takes off after him.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - DAY 

	Gilligan runs on camera with the ladder in hand, and 
	the skipper hot on his heels.  He heads out near the 
	lagoon's beach area where there is a tree standing. 
	Gilligan hits the tree with the ladder and twists 
	around the tree at the end of the ladder. He springs 
	back against some driftwood on the beach area and 
	winds back around the tree in the opposite 
	direction. In the process, he hits the skipper, 
	knocking him and himself into the lagoon.

CUT TO: INT - HUT - EVENING 
GILLIGAN AND THE SKIPPERS ROOM

	The skipper and Gilligan are in the completed hut 
	getting ready to go to sleep. The skipper is already 
	in the lower hammock.

				GILLIGAN
			I still can't believe this place is 
			really finished!

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan it's been a long day, why don't 
			you hit the sack.

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

	Gilligan makes every attempt to get into the top 
	hammock. He steps on the skipper in the process 
	making the skipper let out a yelp of pain. Gilligan 
	keeps falling out and landing on the ground. He 
	keeps getting tangled in the hammock cords and is 
	becoming increasingly frustrated. He finally gets 
	himself into the top hammock, only to flip over and 
	falls onto the ground.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, why don't you try JUMPING into 
			the upper sack!

				GILLIGAN
			Good thinking skipper.

	Gilligan tries to jump into the upper hammock and 
	lands on the skipper, once again making him yelp 
	aloud in pain.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan. Why don't you get in the lower 
			sack. And I will get in the upper.

				GILLIGAN
			I hate to kick you out of your own bed.

				SKIPPER
			Well there's just not enough room for us 
			both in the lower sack.
			Well don't stand there, help me up!

	While Gilligan is trying to get into the lower 
	hammock without much success, the skipper isn't 
	having any better luck getting into the upper one. 
	He gets tangled in the hammock as well, and flips 
	over onto the ground several times. He eventually 
	gets into the hammock as well and starts to rest. 
	Gilligan finally gets himself into the lower 
	hammock. The cord holding the upper hammock in place 
	starts to loosen and the hammock, skipper and all, 
	starts a slow descent onto the top of Gilligan. 
	Gilligan is now trapped in the lower hammock and 
	being crushed by the skipper.

				GILLIGAN
				(LABORED)
			Skipper!

	Gilligan is trying to get the skipper off of him, 
	but is having no luck. Gilligan is saved when from 
	somewhere else inside the hut when the Howell's 
	erupt into an argument.

				MR HOWELL
				 (O.S.)
			You can have the bedroom all to yourself! 
			I'll sleep out HERE tonight!

				MRS HOWELL
				 (O.S.)
			You can sleep out there tomorrow night 
			too!

	The skipper wakes up.

				SKIPPER
			What was that Gilligan?

	Gilligan is still trapped and cannot answer.

				MR HOWELL
				 (O.S.)
			I wonder if I might trouble you for my 
			pillow!?

				MRS HOWELL
				 (O.S.)
			No trouble at all, HERE'S your pillow! 
			And here's your blanket, and here's your 
			teddy bear!

	The skipper now hears the Howells and starts to get 
	up. He swings his legs over the side of the hammock 
	to get up nearly crushing Gilligan in the process 
	who lets out a choking gurgling sound.

				SKIPPER
			Teddy bear!?

				GILLIGAN
				(GASPING)
			Air! Get up please!

	The skipper gets up and passes through a makeshift 
	curtain made from a blanket used to divide the hut 
	into separate sleeping areas. 

CUT TO: INT - HUT - NIGHT 
VIEW OUTSIDE THE SKIPPER'S AND GILLIGAN'S ROOM

	The skipper comes face to face with the Howell's.

				SKIPPER
			What is going on in here!?

				MR HOWELL
			Well never mind it's a private matter!

				MRS HOWELL
			It is not! And I want to know what the 
			captain has to say about it and what 
			Gilligan has to say about it and what 
			the...

	The professor comes from around an internal divider 
	looking angry.

				PROFESSOR
			When you get around to me I'd like to say 
			pipe down and get to sleep!

				MR HOWELL
			Well no body asked for your opinion!

				SKIPPER
			Will you folks keep it quiet! People are 
			trying to sleep in here!

	Ginger then appears from around an internal divider.

				GINGER
			Well you're no help shouting at the top of 
			your lungs!

				SKIPPER
			I'm not shouting at the top of my lungs, 
			I'm trying to get some quiet!!

	Mary Ann now arrives on the scene as well.

				MR HOWELL
			Well if you want to keep quiet start with 
			my wife! She began the whole thing!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MRS HOWELL
			I began it!!?

				MR HOWELL
			Yes you did!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Lis...listen folks why don't we...

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MR HOWELL
			Shut up will you Gilligan!!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
			You can't tell Gilligan to shut up! I'll 
			tell him when to shut up!

				GILLIGAN
			Thanks skipper. Now folks...

				SKIPPER
			Shut up Gilligan!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MARY ANN, GINGER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			Are you two going to have these family 
			arguments every night!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MR HOWELL
			And what is that to you!!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MARY ANN, GINGER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			Well I happen to live here!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MRS HOWELL
			So do we I'm sorry to say!

				MR HOWELL
			This was a stupid idea from the very 
			start! Tomorrow Lovey and I are gonna 
			build our own little hut.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Mr. Howell remember what the skipper 
			said! There's a big storm on way!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MR HOWELL
			And what does he know about it! Has 
			anyone seen the sky!?

			It so happens I'm an experienced sailor!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MR HOWELL
			If you were an experienced sailor, we

			island.

				MRS HOWELL
			Oh darling, lets spend the rest of the 
			night outside. I'm getting a touch of hut 
			fever. 

				MR HOWELL
			You're so right, I'm going to take you 
			out in the jungle where it's nice and

				MRS HOWELL
			Oh darling!

CUT TO: WIDE SHOT - GROUP

				PROFESSOR
			I think I'll start to work on my own

				MARY ANN
			Oh that's a good idea!

				MR HOWELL
			Marvelous! Good idea!

	Everyone is starting to talk over the top of each 
	other.

			It's getting awful crowded in here.

				SKIPPER
			Wait a minute! Wait a minute!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

				MRS HOWELL
			Yes our door.

CUT TO CLOSE UP OF MARY ANN, GINGER AND PROFESSOR

				MR HOWELL

				MARY ANN
			That's a good idea!

CUT TO: WIDE SHOT - GROUP

				PROFESSOR
			I'll be by in the morning for my roof

	Everyone but the skipper and Gilligan walk out of 
	the communal hut.

PAN RIGHT/ZOOM IN ON SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
			I think they're making a big mistake!

				GILLIGAN
			They sure are. Part of the roof belongs 
			to Mr. Howell!

	The skipper is upset with Gilligan's remark.

				SKIPPER
			Oooooo! Gilligan I mean their attitude! 
			They're all acting for themselves! We've 
			got to function as a group!

				GILLIGAN
			you're right skipper!

				SKIPPER
			I wonder what's going to happen when 
			those monsoons come?

				GILLIGAN
			I don't know. Maybe they'll build their 
			own huts so they don't have to come bunk 
			with us!

CUT TO: INT - HUT - NIGHT - CLOSE UP OF DOOR

	Mr. Howell walks back in through the door. He's 
	surprised to the see the skipper and Gilligan.

			Well I...I thought I...I'd forgotten

				GILLIGAN
			No you weren't Mr. Howell.

	Gilligan leans over and picks up Mr. Howell's Teddy 
	bear.

				(CONTINUED)
			Here it is.

	He hands the bear to Mr. Howell who now takes on a 
	child like appearance and hugs his bear and replies 
	with a child like tone in his voice.

CUT TO: EXT - HUT CONSTRUCTION AREA - DAY

	We see Gilligan inside a new hut under construction. 
	At this point it's just a series of bamboo poles 
	placed in the ground.

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Gilligan!

				GILLIGAN
			I'm right here in the kitchen! Or is it 
			the den? I mean...I don't know exactly 
			where I am skipper but I know I'm right 
			here someplace.

	The skipper walks on camera carrying a six-foot 
	wooden beam.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, you are standing in my bedroom.

				GILLIGAN
			I'm sorry skipper. You want to come in 
			and go to sleep?

				SKIPPER
			No I don't want to come in and go to 
			sleep!

				GILLIGAN
			It's alright if you want to because I can 
			go work in the living room. Like I did 
			before I...

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan I want you to come out and plain 
			the ends of this cross beam.

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

	Gilligan tries to make his way out of the hut but is 
	having trouble finding the door even though there 
	are no walls in place yet.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, what are you doing!

				GILLIGAN
			Trying to find the front door!

				SKIPPER
			Will you get out here and start working 
			on this beam!

	Gilligan manages to find the front door and walk to 
	where the skipper is working.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper, how come this place is taking so 
			long? Everybody else is almost done with 
			their huts.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, my father had two sayings that 
			I shall always remember. Hurried work is 
			worried work and a job not well done is 
			not a well-done job.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper that's beautiful.

				SKIPPER
			Pop use to say a lot of beautiful things.

				GILLIGAN
			Was he a poet?

				SKIPPER
			Not exactly Gilligan. Well pop, was kind 
			of a world trav...ep...oh never mind  
			Gilligan! Now start working on this beam, 
			I'll get some more bamboo!

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

	As Gilligan is beginning to work on the beams using 
	a machete, Mr. Howell walks on camera and is in a 
	bright and cheery mood.

				MR HOWELL
			Ah...ha! Hello there Gilligan! Ha...ha!

				GILLIGAN
			Hi Mr. Howell! How are things going?

				MR HOWELL
			Well, I'm happy to announce the 
			completion of Howell Manner, and I just 
			stopped by to ask you and the skipper for 
			a little plantation warming tonight.

				GILLIGAN
			Is it ok if I wear what I have on?

				MR HOWELL
			Oh yes...yes delightfully informal. I think 
			you'll know everybody there.

				GILLIGAN
			I guess I will at that huh? Yeah...

				MR HOWELL
			Oh...oh by the way, might I borrow this 
			machete, you see I want to cut some palm 
			leaves? Mrs. Howell's making some drapes 
			for the dining room and I have to go...

				GILLIGAN
			Sure Mr. Howell.

	Gilligan hands the machete to Mr. Howell.

				(CONTINUED)
			Um...what time should we be there?

				MR HOWELL
			Shall we say ah...five-ish? I...I think you 
			know where the place is.

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir. Right behind that rock over 
			there.

				MR HOWELL
			Ah that's the place. Ta ta ta my 
			boy he...he see you then!

	Mr. Howell walks off camera talking to himself 
	happily as he's gotten the machete from Gilligan and 
	feels proud of himself. Meanwhile Gilligan has the 
	beam laying on a makeshift sawhorse and is about to 
	start work on it. The skipper walks back on camera 
	carrying some bamboo and notices Gilligan not doing 
	much.

				SKIPPER
			Well why aren't you working on the beam!

				GILLIGAN
			Because I gave the machete to Mr. Howell.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan did it ever occur to you to use 
			the saw!?

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir that's the first thing I thought 
			of.

				SKIPPER
			Well why didn't you use the saw!?

				GILLIGAN
			Because I loaned that to the professor.

				SKIPPER
			How are we ever going to get this place 
			done if you keep loaning our tools out!?
			Now I don't want you to do that anymore 
			do you understand, that's an order!!

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir!

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, anybody that comes up and says 
			anything to you, wants anything, the 
			answer is no no no no no NO!! Now have 
			you got THAT!

				GILLIGAN
			NO! I mean yes!

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan!

	The skipper walks off camera as Gilligan is getting 
	ready to get back to work. A soon as the skipper is 
	gone, Ginger walks on camera looking as if she's 
	about to vamp Gilligan. Gilligan is mouthing the 
	word no over and over under his breath.

CUT TO: LEFT OF SAME AREA, PAN ON GINGER WALKING TO 
GILLIGAN

				GINGER
			Hello...

				GILLIGAN
			NO no N  O  NO!!

				GINGER
			     (INNOCENTLY)
			Gilligan. What kind of a greeting is 
			that?

				GILLIGAN
			That's the kind of greeting everybody 
			gets who tries to borrow anything, NO NO 
			NO!

				GINGER
			Well, I didn't come here to borrow 
			anything.

				GILLIGAN
			You didn't?

				GINGER
			     (SEDUCTIVELY)
			No.

				GILLIGAN
			No?

				GINGER
			     (SINCERELY)
			No.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh.

				GINGER
			     (INNOCENTLY)
			All I want is just a...a, teeny, weenie, 
			weensy, weenie piece of rope.

				GILLIGAN
			How long a, little, teeny weenie eency 
			weensy bit of rope do you want?

				GINGER
			Nine feet.
			That isn't much is it?

				GILLIGAN
				(WEAKLY)
			Well...no nine feet's hardly anything at 
			all.

	Ginger keeps moving closer to Gilligan as if she 
	planed to kiss him. Gilligan, wanting no part of it, 
	keeps backing away and ends up falling on the 
	ground. He crawls back over to the sawhorses the 
	beam is on.

				GINGER
			This is awfully sweet of you Gilligan.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh heck, it's only rope.
			Let's see now.

	Gilligan stretches a length of rope from one end of 
	the beam to the other, using the six-foot length as 
	a guide.

				GILLIGAN
			Six feet and, three feet more, makes nine 
			feet, yeah!

	Gilligan lays the rope on the beam he's been working 
	on.

				(CONTINUED)
			Ok...

	He takes his axe and gives it a quick hard hit. The 
	rope is cut in two and so is the beam which falls to 
	the ground, as Ginger is startled into letting out a 
	howl.

				GILLIGAN
			Here's your nine feet of rope Ginger. 
			Yeah.

				GINGER
			     (INNOCENTLY)
			Thank you Gilligan.

	Gilligan picks up the two pieces of the beam that 
	fell.

				GILLIGAN
			And if ya...um, if you need a low ceiling, 
			I've got two three foot beams if you 
			want'em.

				GINGER
			The rope is all I wanted, thanks.

	Gilligan is fumbling with the two cut beams.

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Gilligan!

	Gilligan hears the skipper and panics. He quickly 
	puts the two beams together and places them on the 
	sawhorses.

				SKIPPER
			I made a mistake with this six-foot beam.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh...yeah...well that's ok skipper, everybody 
			makes mistakes, especially with six foot 
			beams. I think six-foot beams are the 
			easiest things to...

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan will you cut that out!
			Now I want to use this for a wall brace. 
			Cut it in half!

	The skipper turns and hits Gilligan in the
	back of the head with another beam he's carrying.
	Gilligan bends over and claps his hands together to 
	make a noise.  Gilligan grabs the two three foot beams and 
	presents them to the skipper.

				GILLIGAN
			Here you are skipper! Two three foot 
			crossbeams!

				SKIPPER
			Well you sure cut that in a hurry!

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

				SKIPPER
			Hand me that coil of rope.

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

	Gilligan coils up what's left of the rope he cut for 
	Ginger. It's very short and only makes a very small 
	coil.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan. (pause) You didn't remember to 
			say what I told you did you?

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir. I said no exactly like you told 
			me. Just before I gave away the rope.

				SKIPPER
			Oh Gilligan!
			You see those clouds up there!

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah they're pretty!

				SKIPPER
			They're NOT PRETTY! They could storm at 
			any minute! Now you go out, on the double 
			and get everything that you loaned out! 
			Hurry up, on the double!!

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir. (pause)
			Skipper? You don't have to worry. If it 
			starts to rain, we can work inside! 

				SKIPPER
			Gillian! Now you get out of here on the 
			double!
	
	Gilligan runs off screen as we...

FADE TO: INT - PROFESSOR'S HUT - DAY

	We see the professor sitting writing in a journal 
	and Gilligan is standing in the open door way. 
	Gilligan knocks on the doorframe to get the 
	professor's attention.

				PROFESSOR
			Come in.

	Gilligan enters the hut.

				(CONTINUED)
			Oh hello Gilligan.

				GILLIGAN
			Hi professor. This is sure a nice place 
			you got here. What are you doing?

				PROFESSOR
			I'm making notes for a book.

				GILLIGAN
			You mean you're writing a book?

				PROFESSOR
			That's one of the reasons I wanted to be 
			off by myself. It's going to be a 
			chronicle of our adventures on the 
			island.

				GILLIGAN
			No kidding!

				PROFESSOR
			I think it's a book people will buy don't 
			you?

				GILLIGAN
			Sure I'll buy one. I'm dieing to find out 
			what happens to us.

				PROFESSOR
			Fine.

				GILLIGAN
			Could I have back the chisel and saw you 
			borrowed?

				PROFESSOR
			Oh yeah! I loaned the chisel to the 
			girls, but the saws right here somewhere.

	While the professor is looking for the saw, Gilligan 
	is looking around the hut. He sees a small piece of 
	grass sticking from the wall and pulls it out. The 
	entire wall falls down. 

				PROFESSOR
			What did you do to that wall!?

				GILLIGAN
			I'm sorry professor, all I did was pull 
			out this palm leaf and the whole thing 
			fell down.

				PROFESSOR
			Oh come on!

				GILLIGAN
			Honest professor that's what happened.

				PROFESSOR
			Don't try to tell me that pulling out one 
			palm leaf will make a whole wall fall 
			down!

	The professor starts pulling out a number of palm 
	leaves with no apparent effect on the hut.

				PROFESSOR
				(PROUDLY)
			I built this place you remember!?

	Gilligan inspects another wall and pulls out a 
	single palm leaf. As before the entire wall falls 
	down along with the rest of the hut, leaving in 
	totally collapsed. The professor and Gilligan are 
	left staring at each other in a state of shock and
	disbelief as we...

FLIP TO: EXT - MARY ANN AND GINGER'S HUT - DAY

	Ginger and Mary Ann are outside there small block 
	like hut along with Gilligan who has been admiring 
	their hut.

				MARY ANN
			You really like it Gilligan?

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah girls your place is beautiful. The 
			professor had a beautiful place but...

				GINGER
			Oh Gilligan we're going to have a 
			beautiful garden here, and then we're 
			going to...

	Ginger then stops and starts sniffing the air.

				(CONTINUED)
			Mary Ann, your fudge is burning!

				MARY ANN
			Oh...Oh my goodness! Oh...oh!!

	Mary Ann tries to open the door to their hut. But 
	it's stuck.

				(CONTINUED)
			Oh the door won't open!


				GILLIGAN
			Here I'll get it, hold this. 

	Gilligan hands the saw to Ginger and goes to open 
	the hut's door.

				(CONTINUED)
			Here allow me.

				MARY ANN
			Oh thanks Gilligan!

	Gilligan goes over to the hut door and starts 
	yanking on it. As he does, the hut starts to 
	collapse. Mary Ann and Ginger see what's happening 
	and start screaming. Eventually he gets the door 
	open only to find a collapsed hut.

				Mary ANN
			Oh Gilligan.

				GINGER
			Oh...oh and after all that work!

			 MARY ANN AND GINGER
			Ohhhhh!  Ohhhhh!

				GILLIGAN
			Well, at least I fixed the door.

FLIP TO: EXT - MR AND MRS HOWELL'S HUT - DAY

	We see Mr. and Mrs. Howell's hut complete with Palm 
	tree columns. Mr. Howell is waiting for the Skipper 
	and Gilligan to arrive. The skipper and Gilligan 
	walk on camera.

				GILLIGAN
			Hi Mr. Howell.

				MR HOWELL
			Well gentleman, we're a little early 
			aren't we? Not that it matters, welcome 
			to Howell manner!

				GILLIGAN
			Mr. Howell built a real nice hut didn't 
			he skipper? 

				SKIPPER
			So did the others Gilligan but it took 
			just one little disaster to leave them 
			homeless.

				MR HOWELL
			Ah...what disaster are you talking about?

	The skipper looks at Gilligan and Gilligan reacts 
	with the look of embarrassment.	

				SKIPPER
			That's why we stopped by Mr. Howell. We 
			wanted to talk to you about the community 
			hut.

				MR HOWELL
			You don't have to say another word. Of 
			course I'll contribute! I give to 
			community hut every YEAR!

				GILLIGAN
			No Mr. Howell, the community hut the 
			seven of us built.

				SKIPPER
			And the five of you tore down! Now if we 
			can just work together like we did 
			before, we can rebuild it before the 
			rough weather sets in.

				MR HOWELL
			HA...ha...ha...you and your rough weather. I 
			LIKE rough weather! I welcome rough 
			weather! May I say captain that this 
			place is built to withstand anything!

				SKIPPER
			You may think it is.

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah Mr. Howell, you may think it is.

				SKIPPER
			Quiet Gilligan! Come over here and sit 
			down and be quiet, I'll handle this!

				MR HOWELL
			I assure you captain, this place is a 
			veritable fortress!

	Gilligan goes over to a hammock stretched between 
	two of the palm tree columns. He sits down and the 
	two palm tree columns collapse, taking the rest of 
	the hut with them.

				MR HOWELL
			Arrrrrgh! It's a veritable rock of 
			Gibraltar!

EXT - HUT CONSTRUCTION AREA - DAY

	The skipper and Gilligan's hut is still not 
	complete. Now that the storm is over, Gilligan and 
	the skipper resume work on their hut. The skipper is 
	near the sawhorses with a beam laying on it. 
	Gilligan walks over and sets the wooden tool carrier 
	down on the end of the beam making it pop up and hit 
	the skipper. The skipper loses his cap in the 
	process

				SKIPPER
			Oh...ep! GILLIGAN!
	
	Gilligan bends over and picks up the skippers cap 
	and hands it back to him.

			Thanks a lot Gilligan!

			No! No! N  O  No no no no!

				SKIPPER

	The skipper walks off screen as Gilligan is about to

	and hands them to Ginger. He drops a tool but
