And wait till you see

All the pretty sea shells I found for you.

Is there enough to make a necklace from?

Oh, yeah, sure! There's enough to make at least necklaces,

Even if you had necks.

Gilligan, look!

Oh, yeah, that is a pretty sea shell.

Don't you see it?!

Sure, I see that shell right next to the boat.

A boat! It's a boat!

It's a boat, it's a boat!

We gotta--gotta tell the skipper!

We gotta tell professor!

It's a boat, it's a boat, it's a boat!

There's no radio, skipper.

Now, why would a search party be without a radio?

They wouldn't be. Besides, they can see our huts from here.

Certainly, a rescue party

Wouldn't leave a boat like this.

Skipper? Professor?

Come here! Quick!

I hate to say this, but I think our rescue party's

Been dragged off by a terrible beast.

What are you talking about?

These crazy footprints, you see?

I think a strange creature landed here. See?

It has a big, fat claw on the back of its paw.

I think it was a sea monster.

Gilligan, those prints weren't made by an animal.

Those are the footprints of a woman.

A woman with a fat claw on the back of its paw?

That's the print of a woman's shoe.

You see? A woman!

A woman!

Well, what are we standing here for?

Let's go find her.

Whoever our mystery guest is,

I'm sure she has the key to the boat.

Aye, aye, skipper. There's just one thing, though.

What's that?

Well, if we find her,

We don't know what she looks like,

So how do we know it's her?

Well, gilligan, let's put it this way,

Whoever the strange lady is,

She's the one with the single shoe.

Oh, yeah.

She'll be hopping, huh?

Come on, let's find her!

[Leaves rustling]

Well, whoever she is, lovey,

She must be very brave.

I mean, crossing the ocean all alone.

Thurston, what makes you so sure that she's all alone?

Well, there's only one set of footprints.

Unless she's alone, she must be carrying someone piggyback.

Oh, darling, how terribly clever of you.

You're a regular james gilt-edge bond.

Why do you suppose, thurston,

A girl all alone would come to a deserted island?

Well, there are many reasons.

Perhaps she skipped the country

To avoid paying income taxes.

Oh, I like her already!

Look, gilligan, I think if we split up,

We can cover more ground that way.

Now, you go that way, and I will go this way.

Ok, skipper.

Aah!

Hey, lady, lady! Skipper, it's a lady!

The lady, skipper! The lady, skipper!

I'm coming! I'm coming!

The lady, skipper!

Let me go.

Now, wait a minute, little lady.

Wait just a minute.

I don't know why you're not glad to see us,

But we're sure glad to see you.

We've been shipwrecked here a long time.

Yeah, we sure have. We've been here for days

And months and years and thousands--

Never mind, gilligan.

Now, I think we can all fit into your boat.

Oh, you can have it.

We can have the boat?

Did you hear that, gilligan?

We can have the boat!

Yeah, we're saved, we're saved!

We're rescued!

Oh, boy, hawaii, here we come!

[Crying]

Please, now,

Miss...we don't even know what your name is.

My name is eva grubb.

Well, it's not too great a name,

But you always can change it.

[Crying]

What's wrong? Won't you tell us?

Why are you trying to run away?

Because I never want to see another human being again

As long as I live,

And particularly not a man!

But why?

[Sobs]

Oh, come on. Please, we're just trying to help you.

Oh, men don't even know I exist.

All through school, not a boy ever looked at me.

Finally, days ago, i--

I had my very first date...

A blind date.

And only minutes after he met me,

He suddenly developed a headache

And he had to go home.

Well, maybe that's where he kept his aspirin.

[Sobbing]

Eva, please don't cry.

I saved all my money to buy that boat.

I wanted to find a deserted island

Where I could be alone!

I guess I picked the wrong one!

Well, we'd be happy to desert this island for you.

You mean you'll really leave me here alone?

Oh, now, you don't mean that.

You're just a little upset now.

When we get back to civilization, everything will--

Never. I'm never going back to civilization.

Here's the key to the boat.

If you promise to leave me here alone,

You can have it.

And then she gave me the key

And said we could have the boat.

We have a boat?

And we can leave? Here?

Whenever we want?

Whenever we want.

Oh!

Oh, everyone, uh, please, pay attention now.

Eva grubb, this is mary ann,

Mr. And mrs. Howell,

The professor, and ginger.

Hello, eva.

Grubb, uh...

Are you related to the south hampton grubbs?

No, I'm afraid not.

Well, they had a daughter who was engaged

To the wellingford heir. I thought maybe--

I've never been engaged to anyone,

And I never will be.

Now, I gave you the key to the boat.

The least you could do is not to mention men!

Lovey, I do wish you would be more careful what you say,

Whatever it is.

I wouldn't have said what I said

If I'd known what I was saying...

Or something like that.

Poor girl. We never got a chance

To tell her how happy she's made us.

You know, in her emotional state,

We really shouldn't let her stay here.

Well, as soon as we reach port,

We'll send a boat back for her.

Oh, that's a capital idea. Just capital.

I love that word capital.

We got to send a boat back for her,

Because, you know, she's very lonely--

Now, wait a minute.

We better not mention a word about that to eva.

Why not?

Well, she's so upset, there's no telling what she might do.

Now, remember, not a word to eva about sending a boat back.

Hi, eva.

Hello, gilligan.

Getting ready to leave?

Yeah. The skipper says we're gonna shove off in a couple of hours.

He wants to know if you want some of our provisions,

Like this shredded coconut.

No, thanks. I can manage.

I guess so. It's only gonna be weeks.

Weeks?

Uh-huh.

That's how long the skipper figures it'll take

To send a boat back for you.

Oh, boy. This shredded coconut is good.

You sure you don't want some?

[Engine cranking]

Hey, professor. The engine isn't turning over.

Well, let's see.

No wonder. The spark plugs are gone.

The spark plugs are gone?

Well, who'd take the spark plugs?

Well, the only person who could possibly have a reason

Would be eva.

Well, but why would she take them?

Unless somebody told her about our plans,

But who'd be stupid enough to do that?

I'll see you guys around.

Gilligan, what do you know about this?

Who, me? I don't know anything about it.

I'll see you guys later.

What happened to those spark plugs?

I took them...

And I hid them where they won't be found.

But why?

Because gilligan told me about your plan to send a boat back.

So we're all going to stay shipwrecked together.

Gilligan, you, you!

Skipper, don't say it. Not in front of children.

What children?

Me. I'm just a loud-mouthed kid.

I'll see you later.

So you might just as well forget the packing,

'Cause we're not going anyplace.

Oh, nonsense.

I'm sure we can persuade eva

To change her mind.

Not a chance, mrs. Howell.

We tried every argument you can think of.

Uh, keep packing, my dear.

I will talk to eva.

Mr. Howell, we've already spoken to her.

I know, but you use words. You see, I use numbers

With lots and lots of zeroes.

Are you suggesting that money can make her happy?

It's kept me smiling for years.

Well, I'm sorry, folks, but money can't buy happiness.

Anyone who says money can't buy happiness

Doesn't know where to shop.

Might as well try, professor.

What can we lose?

You see, mrs. Howell and I will invite eva to tea.

And with my diplomacy and tact,

She'll never, ever know that it's a bribe.

How dare you try to bribe me!

All right. Now, let's look at this thing logically.

Eva has feelings of rejection and undesirability.

Therefore, she insists upon isolation.

Not only that, she wants to be left alone, too.

Somehow, we've got to make eva feel--

Well, she wants to be anxious to get home.

Oh, why would she want to go home?

It's gonna be the same as before she left.

No dates, no boyfriends.

No wonder. She's so plain,

And she doesn't do anything

To make herself more attractive.

Hey, that's it.

Why don't we make eva beautiful?

Then--then she'll wanna go home.

I don't get it.

Why do you wanna make her beautiful?

Well, gilligan, what would you do

If you looked like eva?

I could write the draft board

And get reclassified.

Gilligan.

You'd stay home in your lonely room and you'd cry.

I would?

Professor: the girls are right.

You don't feel worthy of being loved.

I don't?

Well, how could you when you think you're unattractive?

When you think you're awkward.

And unwanted.

And plain.

You're right. You're right.

A-a-and I talk too much, too.

We're gonna change all that.

Good-bye, ugly duckling. Hello, beautiful swan.

Well, where are you going?

To start to work on eva, of course.

Well, what about me?

Let's see now.

The first thing I want to do

Is take the pins out and let your hair down.

All right, but it won't do any good.

Ginger, you know what?

Her measurements are the same as yours.

Mary ann, it's not the measurements that count.

It's the way they're arranged.

Here it is--

A shampoo the professor made

With some henna plants.

Um, do you need those glasses?

Well, only to see.

Well, try to fake it.

How's that?

Well, I can see you pretty clearly...

Or are you mrs. Howell?

That's all right, honey.

We're going to make you so beautiful,

You'll have dozens of men to lead you around.

Golly.

Look at that.

It's amazing!

It's uncanny.

It's me.

I can't believe it.

You look just like me.

You two are exactly alike.

It's remarkable. You could be twin brothers.

Hi. I thought I'd stop by

And check on that henna shampoo that i--

Good heavens! Gingers.

You're all kidding me.

Eva, you're beautiful.

I can't be.

Oh, you are, my dear.

You're lovely, you're magnificent.

Or as the french would say...

Now, let me see, what would they say?

I don't speak french.

It's really true.

Eva, you're as beautiful as I am.

You're gorgeous.

That's impossible, ginger.

Well, come here and look in the mirror.

This may be just the thing to make eva want to go home.

I couldn't look like you, ginger.

You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

Well?

What do you see?

I'm the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

I can't believe it, ginger.

Do I really look as much like you as I think?

Eva, men will find you irresistible.

Ginger, don't be ridiculous.

Well, they will.

Come on, I'll prove it to you.

Hello, gilligan.

Oh, hi, ginger.

Oh, hi, eva.

Hey, you two sure look alike.

May I sit down?

Sure.

It certainly is cozy, isn't it?

Yeah. You sure do look like ginger.

But I'm not ginger, I'm me.

Do you know what I want?

You want a grape?

No.

I want you to like me.

I like you.

I want you to like me a lot.

I like you a lot.

Gilligan, what I mean to say is,

I-i-i'm a girl, you're a boy.

I knew that the first time we met.

Gilligan...

I think we could make beautiful music together.

So do i.

You wait here, and I'll get my harmonica.

No, I mean us.

No, no.

Hey, everybody. You should see eva.

Wow, what a change in her.

Oh, yeah?

She really turned it on, huh?

All I can say is I couldn't turn her off.

Where is she now?

She left me sitting there

And walked into the jungle,

And you should see the way she walks.

Well, I certainly hope she's ready to go home,

Because it's impossible to convert these seashells

Into spark plugs.

You don't have to, professor.

Here are the spark plugs.

I suddenly realized I can't wait to go home.

Wonderful!

We're gonna have to take a lot of provisions on that boat.

Oh, I can hardly believe it.

We're going home.

Say, ginger.

Do you think eva's life will really be changed

Once she gets home?

Oh, I don't know.

I guess not.

I mean,

As ginger grant, she's got poise

And confidence and sex appeal.

But, uh, when she gets home,

I'm afraid she may be eva grubb again.

I mean, there's only one ginger grant.

True.

Mrs. Howell...

Oh, ginger, mr. Howell and I have decided

To give a "last night on the island" party.

You will tell eva, won't you?

I am eva.

Good heavens.

It's impossible to tell you two apart--

Like peas in a bikini, as it were.

If you ever showed up in hollywood,

No one would ever know you weren't ginger grant.

Well, I must toddle along. See you tonight.

No one would ever know I wasn't ginger grant.

Why did you want me to come out here?

Well, I wanted to talk to you in private.

Ginger, I can't find the words

To tell you who grateful I am

For what you've done, so...

I thought I'd show you.

[Thunk]

If I can pass as ginger at the party tonight,

I can fool anyone anywhere.

[Muffled] you'll never get away with it.

Sure, I will.

Eva will disappear,

Leaving a note that she's going

To the other side of the island to live.

And I'll sail away with the others.

Bye, eva.

Sorry you can't come to the party tonight.

I'll explain that you're all tied up.

Hi, everyone. Sorry I'm late.

Eva and I were having a little chat.

She's getting dressed.

Oh, sit down, dear. You're just on time.

Mr. Howell has a little surprise.

Yes. I've been saving this bottle of bubbly

For a very special occasion, and this is it--

In honor of our benefactor eva grubb.

By the way, where is she?

I'll go find her.

Oh, no, no. No, gilligan.

Uh...i have to fix my makeup anyway.

Unh! Sorry, mary ann.

[Soft dance music playing]

[Music playing]

There she is now, thurston.

Oh, just in time, my dear.

[Pop]

Ooh, I love that sound. Popsy!

I'd hate to have ginger miss this. I'll go get her.

Oh, no, no, no. I'll get her for you.

You just stay here an enjoy yourself.

Strange.

Hi.

Hi, ginger.

Here. Mr. Howell poured this just for you.

Oh, thanks.

How clumsy of me.

Ginger, where's eva?

Mr. Howell and I have a little present for her.

We want to show our gratitude to the dear girl.

I'll go find her.

Oh, no, no, mrs. Howell. I'll get her for you.

I saw her just a minute ago.

Ginger said you were looking for me.

Yes. We'd like you to have this

As an expression of our gratitude.

Oh!

Oh, that's the most beautiful necklace I've ever seen.

Well, it's part of the jewelry

That queen isabella gave to christopher columbus.

Thurston howell I got it

When he foreclosed the mortgage

On the nina, the pinta, and the santa maria.

Where's ginger? She promised me a dance.

Oh!

Gilligan: I'll go find her.

Oh, no, no, gilligan. I'll hurry her up.

I think I know where she is.

I say.

Hi.

Hi, ginger. A dance?

Oh, sure.

[cr*ck]

I knew I was clumsy,

But I never broke anybody before.

Are you all right?

Sure, I am.

Oh, ginger, that's great.

Just hold it right there,

And I'll put another record on.

And then it'll be our turn.

Shall we?

Come on, here we go.

[Perky music plays]

Well, I've been rejected before,

But never for another girl.

This has been charming,

But don't you think we might change partners now?

I'm sorry.

It's very warm in here.

Oh!

Ginger!

Mrs. Howell: are you all right?

A little of the bubbly, my dear.

That'll straighten you out. Oh!

Oh!

How clumsy of me. I'd better change.

I'll say!

And the sooner, the better.

Look, it's eva.

No, gilligan. It's ginger.

Ah, I knew there was something peculiar.

Ginger, what happened?

Our little cinderella conked me on the head.

She tied me up and was going to leave me here

While she went back and resumed my career.

Oh, I'm...

I'm so ashamed.

I guess it was the excitement

Of being beautiful for the first time.

You can't imagine what it's like.

I guess I went a little crazy.

Can you ever forgive me?

Can I make it up to you?

Yes, I guess so.

How? What can I do?

Keep your glasses on and let your hair go dark.

By george.

I'll drink to that.

Have any of you seen eva?

When we woke up, she was gone.

The boat!

The boat!

The boat's gone.

Hey, look, there's a note.

And it says, "dear soakers--"

Let me see that.

Dear soakers.

"Dear suckers...

"My repentant act last night

"Was really convincing.

"I convinced you--

"And it convinced me, too-- that I'm a good actress.

"I'm going back alone to resume my fabulous career.

"Lots of luck, castaways.

The new ginger grant."

She couldn't have.

She wouldn't have.

She did.

Oh!

[Crying]

Come on, ginger.

Let's go back and have some breakfast.

Come on, ginger. What you need is some grub.

Ohh! [Crying]

What'd I say? What'd I say?

Gilligan, you said "grubb," like in eva.

Don't you ever mention that girl's name again.

I...

[Crying]

I would never say--

Gilligan!
