EXT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - NIGHT - CREDITS OVERLAY

CUT TO: CLOSE UP - EXT - HUT DOOR - LOW SHOT

	We see the lower half of the bamboo door as it opens 
	and only the lower half of the bare foot skipper is 
	seen walking outside the hut.

PAN UP: FULL VIEW

	The skipper is in a zombie like state. His arms are 
	held out in front of him as he walks along. He 
	almost walks in to several things, but veers away at 
	the last second. He starts to mumble.

				SKIPPER
			Ehhh.Guadal Canal.ehhh.

CUT TO: INT - SKIPPER AND GILLILGAN'S HUT - NIGHT

CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN IN HAMMOCK

	We see Gilligan peacefully asleep in his hammock as 
	the skipper is heard from off screen.

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Sub chaser three oh seven calling 
			squadron command. Do you read me? Come in 
			squadron command come in.
			We are under heavy enemy attack. Await 
			you instructions.

	Gilligan has been awakened by the skippers talking 
	and is still half asleep. 

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Bandits at ten o'clock! Look out! Hit the 
			deck!

	Gilligan immediately rolls out of the hammock and 
	onto the ground in response.

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Hewww.that was a close one.

				GILLIGAN
			You're telling me!

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Are you ok lieutenant?

	Gilligan stands up under his hammock and has it draped 
	over his head.

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah. Lieutenant?

	Gilligan wonders where the skipper is and why he's 
	talking funny.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper?

	Gilligan gets hung up in his hammock as he tries to 
	make his way outside. He proceeds to shrug off the 
	hammock and head for the door.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON CLEARING - NIGHT

	The skipper is seen standing near the lagoon, still 
	in a trance as he barks out orders. 

				SKIPPER
			Transmitter's been knocked out sir!
			We'll have to convert the receiver!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN


	Gilligan has a confused look on his face as he 
	listens to the skipper.

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Harris, give me that radio manual!

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	Gilligan walks on camera toward the skipper. The 
	skipper takes an imaginary book and starts to read.

				SKIPPER
			Connect remaining circuits by plugging.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

			      (CONTINUED)
			.in to.radio frequency located at the 
			right side of the antenna lead.

	The skipper yells out to an imaginary officer.

				SKIPPER
			Ready to convert the radio into a 
			transmitter Lieutenant! 
			Aye, aye sir!
			Evens, hold this book.

	Gilligan waves his hand in front of the skipper's 
	eyes and gets no response.

				SKIPPER
			Give me a screwdriver Ferguson! Quick man 
			a screwdriver!

	The skipper reaches over to Gilligan and grabs his 
	hand. Gilligan extends his index finger. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan stares in disbelief as the skipper 
	manipulates his hand into a screwdriver.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

				SKIPPER
			Now give me the wire cutters!
			WIRE CUTTERS!

	Gilligan once again is the tool. He hands the 
	skipper his hand with the index and middle fingers 
	in a V shape to look like cutters. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	Skipper looks at Gilligan's hand as pair of wire 
	cutters and sets to work.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER - LOW VIEW

	The skipper takes the "cutters" and makes several 
	imaginary cuts.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan looks on with a bit of curiosity.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
			Ready to transmit sir!

	The skipper then looks up in the night sky and 
	reacts.

				SKIPPER
			Dive-bombers at twelve O'clock! Jump Men!

CUT TO: WIDE SHOT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Aye, aye sir!

	Gilligan, trained in the Navy, leaps for cover into 
	the lagoon.

				SKIPPER
			Run for your lives!

CUT TO: MEDIUM SHOT - GILLIGAN SWIMMING IN LAGOON

CUT TO: EXT - HUT CLEARING - NIGHT

	After the mock attack, the skipper slips back into 
	his catatonic state and makes his way back to the 
	hut.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	The skipper, with outstretch arms makes it back to 
	the hut.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN IN LAGOON

	Gilligan has a sour look on his face as we.

FLIP TO: INT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - NIGHT

	Gilligan enters the hut and makes his way over to 
	the sleeping skipper and stands over him. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Water from his soaked hat drips heavily.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER IN HAMMOCK

	We see water dripping onto the skipper's face waking 
	him up.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan! 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan, soaking wet is just staring at the 
	skipper.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

				SKIPPER

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			I know, the lagoon's full of water.

				SKIPPER
			What were you doing in the lagoon?

				GILLIGAN
			You pushed me overboard when the dive-
			bombers came at us.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			What dive-bombers!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			The dive-bombers you were dreamin about!
			I'd just given you some tools to fix the 
			radio.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			Tools!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah!

	Gilligan displays his "tools" to the skipper.

				GILLIGAN
			This a screwdriver, and these pair of 
			wire cutters. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				GILLIGAN
				(O.S.)
			Boy you had a real nightmare out there.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan. I have not been out of this 
			hammock. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			You've been walking in your sleep.

				GILLIGAN
			I have?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			Certainly! And when you fell in the water 
			it woke you up.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Oh is that what happened?
			Gosh I could have sworn it was the other 
			way around.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			I'm afraid not. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
			Now why don't you go back to sleep, and 
			no more dive-bombers tonight, Huh?

				GILLIGAN
			Yes sir.

				SKIPPER
			Oh Gilligan. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			You'd better wipe those wire cutters off 
			before they get rusty.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan looks A little sheepish.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	The skipper has a satisfied look on his face.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan takes his "wire Cutters" and wipes them on 
	his shirt as we.

STOCK SHOT OF VIEW OF OCEAN THROUGH PALM TREES

CUT TO: EXT - HUT CLEARING - DAY

	The skipper and professor are sitting at a table 
	listening to the radio which is broadcasting a round 
	the world flight of a female aviator. The skipper is 
	looking at a map or chart of some type.

				RADIO
			THIS IS ALICE MCNEAL SIGNING OFF AS I 
			START THE LAST LEG OF MY ROUND THE WORLD 
			FLIGHT. OPEN UP THAT GOLDEN GATE CAUSE 
			SAN FRANCISCO HERE I COME!

	The professor reaches over and turns off the radio.

				SKIPPER
			Professor, according to my new 
			calculations, she should be passing right 
			over our island.

				PROFESSOR
			Well there must be someway we can contact 
			her. 

				SKIPPER
			But how!?

	The skipper thinks for a moment.

				SKIPPER
			I got it! I've got it!! What we need is a 
			big roaring fire!

	Gilligan walks on camera carrying a sack over his 
	shoulder. He over hears the skipper's reference to a 
	big fire. 

				PROFESSOR
			Yes! 

PAN LEFT WITH GILLIGAN

	Gilligan stops and drops the sack.

				GILLIGAN
			A big roaring fire on a hot day like 
			this!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			A signal fire Gilligan. There's a very 
			good chance that woman flyer will pass 
			right over this island.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper! We're saved we're saved!!

PAN RIGHT WITH GILLIGAN OVER TO SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			We're not saved yet Gilligan. We've got 
			to try and figure out someway to attract 
			her attention. 

				GILLIGAN
			I know, I'll take off my shirt, jump, and 
			yell and wave it!

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, she's going to be passing over 
			at five thousand feet! How do you suppose 
			she'll see you!?

				GILLIGAN
			I'll stand on your shoulders.

				SKIPPER
			That's good Gilligan. That's very good.

PAN LEFT WITH GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			I've got an even better idea skipper. An 
			even better idea. We'll build a human 
			tower! 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Human tower.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			You'll be on the bottom, the professor

			shoulders.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Mrs. Howell stands on your shoulders, 
			Ginger will stand on her shoulders and 
			we'll have Mary Ann at the top.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			No I think Ginger ought to be at the top.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Why?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN


				GILLIGAN
			Because she's wearing high heels.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			I think a signal fires our best bet 
			Gilligan. 

	The professor looks up into the sky.

				PROFESSOR
			Although I don't know if she'll be able 
			to see it through all that Nimbus Cumuli.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

PAN RIGHT WITH GILLIGAN OVER TO SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah, and all those clouds are in the way 
			too.

				SKIPPER
			Wa.well we'd better do something pretty 
			quick! No telling how soon she might pass 
			over! 

				GILLIGAN
			Oh, If only I could remember how you 
			fixed the radio last night.

				PROFESSOR
			What radio?

				GILLIGAN
			The one in the sub chaser in my 
			nightmare. We were under heavy enemy 
			attack, and the transmitter was knocked 
			out.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Sub chaser? Enemy attack? The transmitter 
			got knocked out?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN 

				GILLIGAN
			Don't you remember skipper? I told you

PAN LEFT WITH SKIPPER OVER TO GILLIGAN
 
				SKIPPER
			Gilligan little buddy. You said I fixed 
			the radio. How did I do it?

				GILLIGAN
			You turned it into a transmitter.

	The skipper has a look of recognition on his face.

				SKIPPER
			I remember! It happened at Guadal Canal!

				GILLIGAN
			No it happened over there by the lagoon.

				SKIPPER
			We were about a mile off shore. The 
			transmitter got hit.we were strafed by 
			enemy fighters. I had to do something 
				fast! 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper let me tell it. It was my dream.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			You mean it's possible to convert a radio 
			into a transmitter? 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

				SKIPPER
			Sure! It's simple, all you need is a 
			screwdriver and a pair of wire cutters. 

				GILLIGAN
			Got'em right here sir!

	Gilligan holds up his hands. One is the screwdriver 
	the other is the wire cutters.

				SKIPPER
			It's a simple procedure. It's just a 
			matter of reversing the circuits by ah.

			Gilligan how did I do it?

				GILLIGAN
			I don't know!

				SKIPPER
			But you must have seen something!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			I didn't even see the dive-bombers! Next 
			thing I knew I was swimming for my life!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			Think skipper, come on, think! 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			How did you convert that radio!?

	The skipper really tries to remember.

				SKIPPER

			I don't remember.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			I know, I'll go back to sleep and get on 
			the boat a little earlier this time.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER

			I know what I told you but I was wrong!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				SKIPPER
			Looks like I owe you an apology little 
			buddy!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	The skipper is laying in his hammock and looking 
	restless 

				SKIPPER
			It's no use. I can't sleep with somebody 
			watching!

PULL BACK TO: MEDIUM SHOT - GROUP

	Gilligan and the professor are watching him as he 
	tries to sleep. 

				PROFESSOR
			All right skipper. You try it on your 
			own.

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah skipper. Just concentrate on getting 
			to sleep. Leave the worrying to us. The 
			only thing you have to worry about is 
			getting to sleep.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			Thanks Gilligan.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

				GILLIGAN
			You got seven lives depending on you sir.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				GILLIGAN
				(O.S.)
			That's a big responsibility for one man. 
			Unless you go to sleep skipper, you won't 
			walk in you sleep, and then we can't 
			change the radio into the transmitter.

CUT TO: MEDIUM SHOT - GROUP 

				GILLIGAN
			So relax and go to sleep.

	The professor is getting tired of Gilligan's bedside 
	manner.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR
			Lets go Gilligan.

CUT TO: MEDIUM SHOT - GROUP

	The professor leaves the hut while Gilligan starts 
	to tip toe out. The skipper notices he's a bit 
	premature.

				SKIPPER
			You don't have to tip toe Gilligan! I'm 
			not asleep yet.

				GILLIGAN
			Well you'd better hurry sir! That woman's 
			going to be flying over at any time!
			
				SKIPPER
			I'm doing the very best I can.

				GILLIGAN
			I know you are skipper. So stop thinkin 
			about the trouble we're in. You'll never 
			get to sleep with that on your mind.

	Gilligan finally leaves the hut. The skipper makes 
	one more effort to get to sleep.

CUT TO: EXT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - DAY

	Gilligan comes out of the hut and approaches the 
	professor who's been waiting.

				GILLIGAN
			I sure hope he gets to sleep.

				PROFESSOR
			He will if he's left alone. Gilligan, I 
			want you to stand guard. Make sure nobody 
			gets in there and disturbs the skipper.

				GILLIGAN
			Right, nobody.

				PROFESSOR
			That includes you.

				GILLIGAN
			Especially me, I'm the worst of the whole 
			bunch.

	The professor stretches his arms and sounds tired.

				PROFESSOR
			I think I'm going to lay down. I'm beat. 

	The professor walks off camera leaving Gilligan to 
	guard the skipper's rest. Gilligan has a curious 
	look on his face and decides to check in on the 
	skipper.

CUT TO: INT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - DAY

	The skipper is lying in his hammock with his eyes 
	closed. Gilligan comes through the door quietly and 
	looks at the skipper. The skipper knows he's there 
	and quickly gives Gilligan a look. Gilligan shoots 
	back out of the hut.

FLIP TO: EXT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - DAY - LATER

	Gilligan is seen picking up a sign that reads "Quiet 
	do not disturb". He places the sign on the hut's 
	outer wall and is about to nail it in place when the 
	professor comes out of the hut. Just as Gilligan is 
	making his swing, the professor takes the hammer, 
	spinning Gilligan around. Before Gilligan can utter 
	a word, the professor puts his hand over Gilligan's 
	mouth. Gilligan is mumbling something but can't be 
	understood.

				PROFESSOR
			Shhhhhh!

	Gilligan settles down a bit.

				PROFESSOR
			No noise Gilligan, the skipper's almost 
			asleep.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh.

	We can hear some faint singing coming from inside 
	the hut. Gilligan and the professor start making 
	their way back into the hut.

				GINGER
				(O.S.)
			.when the wind blows the cradle will.

CUT TO: INT - SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN'S HUT - DAY

	Ginger is singing a lullaby to the skipper as she 
	gently rocks him back and forth in his hammock. Mary 
	Ann is seated nearby with a note pad and pencil at 
	the ready. The professor and Gilligan have entered 
	the hut as Ginger continues her singing.

				GINGER

	lying on a large piece of driftwood. Gilligan is 
	seen in the background near the lagoon and makes his 
	way over to the skipper carrying a palm frond fan. 
	He starts fanning the skipper rather violently.

	The skipper walks off camera as the professor and 
	Gilligan watch.

				PROFESSOR
			Oh that poor man is a nervous wreck.

				GILLIGAN
			He's all worn out from trying to get to 
			sleep. What he needs is something to make 
			him relax, calm him down.

				PROFESSOR
			Wish we had some tranquillizers.

				GILLIGAN
			Yeah tranquillizers!
			No, that's no good. We don't have a

			Well I suppose I could. It's just that I 
			hate to ride a used Polo pony. The coat 
			is so shiny.

	Mrs. Howell sees Gilligan approaching.

				MRS HOWELL

	Gilligan walks on camera.

				GILLIGAN

	The skipper is trying to remember as Gilligan and 
	the professor look at each other in defeat. The 
	skipper sees the bananas and grabs one. He notices 
	the bottle hidden underneath.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	He examines the bottle as we.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GINGER AND MARY ANN

	They're watching on with a sense of concern.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	He's looking worried.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF PROFESSOR

	A look of worry also.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	wash the pills down. He sets the cup down with a big 
	sigh of satisfaction and a smile as we.

FLIP TO: EXT - HUT CLEARING - NIGHT

	We see the skipper fast asleep on the table.

PULL BACK TO MEDIUM SHOT

	The professor and Gilligan have been pacing and end 
	up together behind the skipper. The skipper is 
	snoring and starts to mumble. The professor and 
	Gilligan immediately race to his side to listen.

QUICK CUT TO: GINGER AND MARY ANN

	Mary Ann with note pad in hand gets ready to take 
	notes.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	The skipper is coming to and starts to mumble again.

				SKIPPER
			.th.the vagabond lady.th.th.

	The skipper starts to get up and is helped by 
	Gilligan and the professor.

				GILLIGAN
			       (STRAINED)
			Get him to the beach!

	The skipper tries to sit back down but is prevented 
	by Gilligan and the professor.

				GILLIGAN
			Skipper, skipper! Put up your arms like 
			you did before. Here. 

	Gilligan and the professor are trying to keep the 
	skipper moving, but he just wanders around being 
	difficult.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GINGER AND MARY ANN

	Mary Ann is still waiting to copy anything the 
	skipper says.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT


	Still no luck. The skipper is just wheeling around 
	out of control as Gilligan and the professor try to 
	guide him.

CUT TO: MEDIUM SHOT - GROUP

	They are still unable to control his direction. It's 
	all they can do to keep the skipper from falling 
	over. The skipper still mumbles as the professor 
	assesses the problem.

				PROFESSOR
			It's amazing. It's amazing. I had no idea 
			that four tranquilizers could produce 
			this much of an affect!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GINGER AND MARY ANN

				GINGER
			Six!

	promptly falls on the ground, taking Gilligan with 
	him.

				MR HOWELL
			Lovey I told you to hurry and get 
			dressed, look! We missed the cocktail 
			hour!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND GILLIGAN

	Gilligan is still trapped and whimpering.

FADE TO: EXT - HUT CLEARING - NIGHT

	Some time later after the skipper has recovered, the 
	professor is trying to hypnotize the skipper. The 
	skipper is seated while Gilligan looks on. The 
	professor is using a diamond bracelet to en-trance 
	the skipper.

				PROFESSOR
			.you're reliving your landing on Guadal 
			Canal. You're aboard your old landing 
			craft headed toward the beach as the 
			battle rages.

	The professor cues Gilligan into action.

PAN RIGHT/PULL BACK TO - WIDE ANGEL - GROUP SHOT

	Gilligan, Mary Ann, Ginger and the Howell's are 
	standing by to act as sound effects for the skipper.
	Gilligan takes a stance and starts sounding like a 
	machine gun. 

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	He's simulating being a machine gun.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

	No reaction yet from the skipper. The professor 
	signals Gilligan to stop.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	He stops but looks disappointed.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

				PROFESSOR
			The sea tosses your boat around like a 
			cork as you plow through the crashing 
			waves toward the distant shoreline.

	The professor signals Gilligan to start the sound 
	effects.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan starts making whooshing sounds like the 
	wind and waves.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

	They are slightly swaying back and forth looking 
	nauseated.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	Gilligan is still making whooshing sounds like the 
	wind and waves.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF MR AND MRS HOWELL

	They are still swaying back and forth looking worse.

				MR HOWELL
			Lovey, where are my seasick pills?

				MRS HOWELL
			I didn't bring them dear. I had no idea 
			we were going out this far.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER AND PROFESSOR

				PROFESSOR

			Now everybody remember your parts.

				SKIPPER
			Looks pretty rough up ahead! We're going 
			to have a hot reception when we hit the 
			beach!

				PROFESSOR
			All right come on folks, battle noises! 
			Battle noises!

	Everyone starts making battle sounds. Gilligan is 
	back on the machinegun while the others are sounding 
	like bombs and dive-bombing planes.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN

	He's back to shooting his machine gun.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	The skipper stands looking like he's in battle as 
	the others continue to make battle noises as we.

FLIP TO: EXT - HUT CLEARING - NIGHT

CLOSE UP OF RADIO

				SKIPPER
				(O.S.)
			Testing, one two three four.

PULL BACK TO MEDIUM SHOT 

	The skipper is talking in to the microphone as the 
	professor and Gilligan watch on.

				SKIPPER
			One two three four.

	The professor is listening on the small radio to see 
	if the skipper's is coming through. He shakes his 
	head.

				PROFESSOR
			Nothing. Still doesn't work.

				SKIPPER
			Are you sure you wrote those instructions 
			down correctly?

				PROFESSOR
			I'm positive.

				GILLIGAN
			Are you sure you dreamed the instructions 
			correctly?

				SKIPPER
			Well there's no use fooling around with 
			this any more she's probably out of range 
			by now.

				PROFESSOR
			Yes I'm afraid so.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan you got the sentry duty I'm 
			going to turn in for a while.

				GILLIGAN
			OK skipper.

	The skipper gets up and walks off camera.

				PROFESSOR
			So am I. Good night.

				GILLIGAN
			Good night.

	The professor gets up and walks off camera. We see 
	the skipper make his way to his hut and enter. 
	Gilligan decides to mess with the radio some more. 
	He puts the small radio up to his ear and starts try 
	the transmitter again.

				GILLIGAN
			Testing one two three four.
			Testing one two.

	Gilligan stops and starts hitting the transmitter 
	with his fist and tries again.

				GILLIGAN
			Hello hello can anybody hear me?

	Just then the radio comes alive.

				RADIO
			NICE TO TALK TO YOU YOUNG MAN!

			LADY!

				GILLIGAN
			My gosh it's Alice! Please stay right

	Gilligan gets up from the table and rushes to the 
	hut's door.

				GILLIGAN
			Hey skipper!

	Gilligan signals the skipper to come. The skipper 
	comes out the hut's door.

				SKIPPER
			What happened? Did you see her plane!?

	They both make it back to the radio.

				GILLIGAN
			No no! Skipper! It's working it's 
			working!

				SKIPPER
			What's working?

				GILLIGAN
			The radio I fixed it! I just talked to 
			that lady flyer!

	Gilligan hands the small radio to the skipper.

				SKIPPER
			You WHAT!?

				GILLIGAN
			Honest! I'm not dreaming or anything! And 
			I figure, you better do the talking. 
			Cause I don't want to cause any more 
			trouble. I want everything to work out 
			just right!

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

				SKIPPER
			But how could you have fixed the radio!?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF GILLIGAN AND TRANSMITTER

				GILLIGAN
			Oh it was easy! All I did was hit it like 
			this!

	Gilligan hits the transmitter again with his fist 
	several times and the back opens up, and the 
	electronics falls out.

CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF SKIPPER

	The skipper as a shocked look on his face.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	Gilligan leans over the transmitter and looks 
	inside. All the internal parts are lying on the 
	ground. 

PAN UP WITH GILLIGAN TO SKIPPER

				GILLIGAN
			Come to think of it. I guess I dreamed 
			the whole thing.

				SKIPPER
			Of course you did.

	We hear an airplane-flying overhead as the small 
	radio comes to life. The skipper and Gilligan follow 
	the sound as they look up.

				RADIO
			NICE TO HAVE TALKED TO YOU DOWN THERE. 
			WHO EVERY YOU ARE! WE SEEM TO HAVE BEEN 
			CUT OFF. MEANWHILE, HAPPY LANDINGS!

	The skipper stare open mouthed at each other as we.
