[Birds chattering]

D-ooh!

Skipper, you scared me.

You didn't do me any good either.

Oh, I'm sorry, skipper. Let's go back to camp.

Gilligan, you are staying right here.

But it's scary right here.

Gilligan, there's nothing to be scared about,

Unless you let that rescue fire go out.

If the fire goes out, what should I be scared of then?

Me!

Skipper, we light that fire every night,

And nobody ever sees it.

Yes, and gilligan, we're gonna keep this fire lit

Until somebody does see it.

Ok, I'll stay.

[Sigh] that's much better now, gilligan.

Good night.

Good night, skipper. Sleep tight.

Well, thank you, little buddy. You, too...

That is, you stay awake...

Oh, gilligan, start putting this wood on the fire.

Good night!

[Engine sputtering]

Wake up, young man.

I'm awake, skipper, I'm awake.

I have come to rescue you.

Aaaaaaah!

Skipper, we've been rescued.

All right, gilligan, by whom are we being rescued,

Mary poppins or moby d*ck?

No, no, skipper, by a dr. Boris balinkoff.

Lives on the island nearby in a big...

I know, gilligan, and he's gonna rescue us all, right?

Right.

Thank you very much.

You are welcome.

Oh, are you the same doctor

Who rescued that man in africa?

Doctor, my wife is referring to stanley and livingstone.

Oh, no, no, madam.

I am dr. Boris balinkoff.

But I can understand your confusion.

Oh, thurston, isn't that wonderful?

He understands my confusion.

Wonderful? It's positively staggering.

And now, I would like to meet the rest of the group,

Take you safely to my island,

And then, to civilization.

Civilization, lovey.

Wall street and the harvard club.

Oh, beauty parlors and steam baths.

My bank book.

My mother.

Lovey, why did you ruin everything?

That's for seeing our fire.

That's for coming to our rescue.

That's for taking us off the island.

What was that for?

That's for being a man.

Well, you see,

I only have a lifeboat from my yacht.

Overloading it would be most dangerous.

Yes, it would be foolhardy to risk our lives now.

Skipper, you and I could go to the island,

Sail the yacht back.

Gilligan, why don't you stop making those dumb suggestions?

No, no, it is a brilliant suggestion.

It is? Of course.

You and the skipper return with the doctor

And sail the yacht back for the rest of us.

You see?

Yeah, well, nobody likes a show-off.

Shall we get started?

Come, young man.

At last, I have found perfect specimens.

How could I have been so absent-minded?

I forgot that my crew took the yacht,

Uh, for repairs.

I know the trouble you can have with a crew, doctor.

He means me. Sometimes I have accidents.

Well, it was because of you

That I discovered him.

Well, it was an accident.

Gentlemen, gentlemen,

I'm forgetting my duties as a host.

I must go and see that your -inch-thick steaks

Are ready.

Oh, doctor, how can we repay you

For all the things you're doing?

I will think of something.

Uh, make yourselves at home.

I will return shortly.

Make yourselves at home?

He must think we lived in a haunted house.

Gilligan, don't tell me you're frightened.

What makes you think that?

Well...

Sorry, skipper.

Well, I've got to admit something to you, little buddy.

This place is beginning to give me the creeps, too.

It wouldn't be so bad

If he didn't keep staring at us.

Gilligan, we're alone in here.

Nobody's watching us.

Yeah? When I look at that picture,

It looks back at me.

What picture?

That picture.

Skipper...

Skipper, the eyes are different now.

Oh, gilligan, stop that.

Eh... Eh... Eyes are eyes,

And, well, those are both blue.

But before, they were bloodshot.

You're just getting all upset over nothing.

Skipper, you tell me one thing,

But my goose pimples tell me another.

Believe me, gilligan,

The whole idea is to stop worrying.

Now, there's nothing to worry about, you understand?

You've got to stay cool, calm, ke...

Keel, calm, and cool... Cool, ca...

Oh, I'm beginning to get a little upset about this place myself.

Yeah, and I'm getting out of here.

Skipper, am I getting close to what it is?

D-d-don't put your hand too close.

He may bite it off.

Boris: ooh!

I see you have met igor.

We kind of bumped into each other.

I must admit his appearance is a bit awesome,

But he is as gentle as a little baby.

A baby what?

Come, enjoy the steaks.

Set yourself down.

I will go and pick your friends up.

Excuse me.

Oh, gilligan, aren't these steaks beautiful?

You better enjoy it. It might be your last meal.

Well, thanks a lot, little buddy.

That'll certainly help my appetite.

[Blows]

Hey, skipper, look. A dog.

Well, gilligan, I know a dog when I see one.

Hi, fella.

[Growls and meows]

[Meows]

Skipper, I know we've been shipwrecked a long time,

But doesn't a dog go, "woof?"

I... I... I think so, gilligan.

[Meows]

[Meows]

Nice kitty... Uh, doggy. Ha ha ha!

You know, mary ann,

I'm beginning to get suspicious.

Suspicious of what?

Of a guy living on a lonely island in the pacific

All by himself.

Oh, ginger, we shouldn't criticize.

We should be grateful.

Hansel and gretel said the same thing

Just before the witch slammed the oven door.

You know, he is a bit odd, perhaps,

But he is gonna save us.

Save us for what?

Skipper, are you sure?

Gilligan, yes, I'm sure.

A dog goes "bow wow,"

And a cat goes "meow meow."

Hey, you hear that? Huh?

A dog goes "bow wow."

[Meows]

You're not listening.

[Meows]

Hey, cat, cat.

Show them what you sound like. Go ahead.

Cat?

[Woof]

[Woof woof]

Hey, skipper! Guess what?

Be quiet, gilligan.

But, skipper, it's very, very important.

Look, gilligan, will you be still?

Now stand there and don't move.

Ok, skip... Skipper!

All right, gilligan. What is it that's so im...

Portant?

Gilligan, little buddy.

Gilligan!

Gilligan.

Have you seen my little buddy?

[Meow]

He was standing right over here in the corner.

I told him not to move, and now he's goooone!

Skipper, what kind of place is this?

I think this used to be the t*rture chamber.

Come on, gilligan.

But, skipper, this place is too scary.

There's positively nothing to worry about, little buddy.

You hear that, skinny? There's nothing to worry about.

What's that?

I think this is what they used to call a rack.

They used it to stretch people with.

They made basketball players?

No, gilligan, but if I gave you the answer,

I don't think you'd like it.

Don't tell me.

Anyway, I think this stuff is all so old

It doesn't even work anymore.

What's this?

Well, this they used to call a stock.

Here, lift this end up.

And see, you put one wrist in here and the other in here,

And you put your neck in here...

No! Thanks a lot, gilligan.

Thought you said it wouldn't work.

Ok, so I was wrong. Now get it open.

Oh, it won't open.

Gilligan, it's got to! It's starting to choke me.

I'll get you out.

Not that way!

Ok, I'll try the skinny end.

Gilligan, will you cut that out?

Now run your hand along the top.

There must be a spring or a lock or something.

Not my top, you dumbbell.

I'm not so dumb.

Oh, yes, you are.

If I'm so dumb, how come you're in there,

And I'm out here?

Very funny.

Get me out of here.

Oh! This thing can scare the life out of you.

Think you're scared? Look at him.

[Clicking]

Shh!

Aah!

Uh, ha ha! Nice day, isn't it?

Are you sightseeing?

A lovely parrot you got there.

Timothy, say thank you.

[Roaring like a lion]

I presume you have discovered

The nature of my experiment.

Oh, no, we haven't.

Honest, we haven't.

I have been doing research on animal transference.

I've changed a dog into a cat.

Skipper, we were right! A dog does go bow-wow.

Gilligan, will you stop interrupting the doctor?

It's not polite!

A canary into a horse...

A lamb into a tiger!

A kangaroo into a little teddy bear.

What a crazy zoo!

And now, at last...

I can do it with people.

N-not on us, you don't!

Igor, take them into the playroom.

Igor! You stupid...

Why don't you look out...

Come on, skipper, get him!

You're stronger than he is! Come on, skipper...

Arrrgh!

Come on, igor! Come on, igor! Get him, igor!

Come on, igor! Get him! Get him!

Thanks a lot for the support, pal.

What are you gonna do with us?

First we capture the others.

Then the doctor will make some changes.

I wonder what he's gonna change me into.

Well, judging from your size,

I'd say a scrawny, pint-sized chicken!

With my size, I wonder what I'm gonna become!

You? You'll probably become a big, fat whale

Or a big, fat pig; big, fat water buffalo...

Thanks a lot, gilligan! Unh!

Ginger: why do I have the feeling that I'm being watched?

Oh, we should never have let mr. Howell and the professor

Go out looking by themselves.

Oh, I'm sure they'll find gilligan and the skipper.

You know, I made a lot of movies in haunted houses,

And whenever I wanted to find anybody,

I always knocked on the window seat.

[Knock knock knock]

[Knock knock knock]

Aah! Aah!

Why would the good doctor say

They were in the greenhouse

When he doesn't even have one?

I'm beginning to believe

The good doctor is sly, cunning, and underhanded.

Good heavens. That's my territory.

I'll look upstairs. You stay here

And let me know if they show up

Or if anything unnatural happens.

Yeah, that's good, but what do I use for a signal?

I don't care. Anything!

How about a high, piercing scream?

So nice of you to drop in, mr. Howell.

Well, uh, doctor, I don't mean to be pushy,

But, uh, would you mind explaining some things?

It will be my pleasure.

And I assure you that you will find our little chat extremely profitable.

Well, I don't care to discuss anything with you

Because I think that...

Did you say profitable?

How would you like to rule... The world?

Rule the world? I'd much rather buy it

And hire someone to run it for me.

I have made a most remarkable

Scientific discovery.

I can transfer the mind of animals

Into the body of another one.

Well, that's very charming and very amusing,

But how exactly would it be, shall we say, profitable?

Mr. Howell... Now I can do it with people.

Well, personally, I can't think of anyone

That I'd rather be than me... Oh!

All we need is a handful of loyal followers.

We take their minds and put it into the bodies

Of leaders of the world, and presto!

We can control everything on earth!

How does that grab you?

Very interesting and very profitable.

Why don't I buy you out, say,

For $ million?

Buy me for money?!

Bah on money!

Bah on money? What are you, some kind of an atheist?

A yale man?

When does this thing get to albuquerque?

Well, uh...

I tell you, that doctor is mad, mad, mad!

Now, really, thurston,

Your hasty judgments distress me.

Well, no. He talks about owning the world.

Even I am not that crazy.


Well, if we did own the whole world,

We could build a lovely house in spain

And have the mediterranean as our swimming pool.

But what did he say about gilligan and the skipper?

Well, we never got around to talking about that.

Well, just exactly what is his plan?

Well, you see, it seems that he can transfer

The brain of one animal to the body of another.

Well, what's that got to do with us?

He intends to experiment on people.

Good heavens! We've got to talk to him.

Well, there's no use talking to him. The man is mad.

He won't even talk about money.

I wish I knew what they're doing

With my darling thurston.

Yes, and my little buddy, too.

Well, I'm afraid we must be prepared for the worst.

What could be worse than this?

Well, at least you're lying down.

They're trying to make a pretzel out of me.

Oh! This is going to ruin my whole career.

I mean, after all, who wants to play

Opposite a -foot leading lady?

Oh, thurston, darling, you're all right.

Thurston: of course I am, lovey.

I was talking to my husband.

Gilligan: uh, gee, mrs. Howell,

Does that mean we're married?

The professor said terrible things are happening,

But I didn't expect anything like this.

Gilligan, wh-what happened?

Well, nothing. He put us in some glass booths.

Will you stop answering for me?

Has everyone gone mad?

There's a mirror in my purse. You better take a look.

Gilligan: ok.

Hey, mr. Howell, what are you doing in that mirror?

Let me see that.

Good grief! I've been shortchanged!

I've got gilligan's body!

Buddy, is that really you?

You're not my little buddy. He is.

I resent that, captain.

Professor, I'm getting so I don't know

Who anybody is anymore!

When you were in his laboratory,

Did either one of you see a way to escape?

When I was me, I was too scared.

It's hopeless. Absolutely hopeless.

Thurston, I can't stand that voice

Coming out of your head.

Lovey, I'm still the same man.

Remember, beauty's only skin deep.

Yes, but now you have somebody else's skin.

[Door opens]

Here he comes now. Gilligan, jump him

When he comes down the stairs.

Got him, skipper! I got him, skipper!

Give up, gilligan!

Don't let him bruise my body!

Aah! Aah!

Into the booth, igor!

Really, doctor, I must insist you return

The mr. Thurston howell that I came with.

So, you do not approve of the change.

No. His voice still sounds like caviar,

But the rest of him looks like mulligan stew!

Do not let me use force, mrs. Howell.

Oh, pooh!

You must be one of those silly doctors

Who voted for medicare.

Lovey: oh, dear,

How can I go anywhere dressed like this?

Dressed? If you could see the way you look!

Professor: will you all please stop bickering?

Skipper: will you please keep out of this, professor?

I am mary ann!

I keep forgetting he's a she.

What are we gonna do, professor?

If I can get into that laboratory,

I know I can work the control panel.

A lot of help I'll be like this!

Oh! Someone's coming!

Well, here comes ol' ugly himself.

Ginger: gilligan!

How can you say a thing like that to me?

Ginger!

Why is everybody staring at me?

Uh, look into the mirror.

I'm going to cry!

Listen, everybody,

Ginger can save our lives.

Well, what can she do?

She can break the chains.

Ginger, set us free!

Professor, I'm not strong enough to break anything

But a fingernail.

You are now.

Come on, ginger! Me first!

This is silly.

I can't break iron chains.

I did it!

I did it! I did it!

All right. Gilligan, mr. Howell,

You in first.

Skipper, close the door.

Ginger, over there.

All right now, skipper, watch what I do.

All right, skipper, open the door.

[Usual voice] am I me?

That you are.

[Normal voice] lovey, I'm back to me!

Skipper: you kiss me, and I'll belt you.

Sorry, captain, but you do remind me of my wife.

All right, skipper, you take over the control switch.

Mary ann, in the booth.

Uh, lovey... Are you sure you're you?

Well, of course I am.

Well, then it's all right, except... Except what?

If you were still the captain, you'd be able to go

Into the steam room with me in the athletic club.

Don't stand there gawking.

Get me back my beautiful, beautiful body.

Ah, so you're still on the island.

How fortunate!

For whom?

You shall soon see.

Igor! Capture them!

Capture them yourself.

Igor, what has happened to you?

Igor: I am in here.

Feels good.

Ginger, quickly!

Into this cabinet! Come on!

[Shouting ]

No! No!

Get in the cabinet!

Let's get her out.

No, no, mr. Howell! Leave him in there!

Oh, it's so good to be home!

All right, mr. Howell, take the women out of here.

Yes, women out of here!

Where's gilligan?

He's right behind me.

All right, is everybody here?

Yes. Let's get down to the boat.

Balinkoff: igor, hurry up!

Igor: coming, doctor, coming!

[Meow]

[Woof woof woof]

[Meow]

[Woof woof]

[Meowrr]

[Woof woof]

[Meow]

[Engine sputters and coughs]

I never thought I'd be glad to see

This dreary little island again.

Perhaps we should have a homecoming party.

I mean, a hut-coming party.

We're not going to stay long enough for parties, mrs. Howell.

This boat can take us all into the shipping lanes.

Oh. I'll go get some food and supplies.

Oh! I will get some fresh water.

And I'll get some warm clothing.

Thank you.

Gilligan and I will get some canvas

To keep the rain off us.

If we hurry, we can make it by high tide.

Come on, gilligan, hurry it up!

I never thought that little boat

Would take all of us back here.

Gilligan, I told you that boat was seaworthy.

Do you really think it'll stay together

Till we get back to hawaii?

Gilligan, like I told you, it's seaworthy.

Now, for goodness sakes, when I tell you it's seaworthy,

You better believe it.

With my knowledge of the sea

And my knowledge of ship's construction,

I could sail that around the world!

[Bubbling]

Skipper, you said you could sail that...

Like I told you, gilligan,

Nobody likes a wise guy.
