GilliganYou know, Skipper. I'm very happy to be here. I'm so happy, I could kiss the ground. [kisses the sand, then spits it out] This island tastes terrible.
Gilligan[At the end of the dream sequence, Gilligan took off his crown, placed it in front of his feet and is shown stomping on it to destroy it] I don't wanna be king! I don't wanna be king! I don't wanna be king!
Gilligan[Up in the coconut tree, mocking the Skipper as he looks for coconuts] Gilligan, do this. Gilligan, do that. Gilligan, go here. Gilligan, go there. Gilligan get this, Gilligan get that. Boy I'd have a life of leisure if only my name weren't Gilligan. The Skipper wants me to get six more? Maybe I won't get him six! [Dejected] Okay I'll get him six. [Looks off to his left] Oh, there's six. [Starts reaching for it] C'mon baby. [Starts slipping] Uh-oh. [Falls out of tree] HELLLLLP! [Thud]
GilliganYou're right, that was a real rotten thing they did. They leave us an album and they didn't even autograph it.
GilliganYou know I never play with a submarine in the bathtub. You gotta watch out where you sit.
I learned a little Hawaiian when I was singing in a club in Waikiki. Wahine wiki huki luki nu. And every word of it comes from the bottom of my heart.
GilliganGee, that's real nice, Ginger. What does it mean?
"This bar is off limits to all military personnel."
Oh, Shut up, will you Gilligan!
You can't tell Gilligan to shut up! I'll tell him when to shut up!
GilliganThanks skipper. Now folks...
Shut up, Gilligan!
Think of it, ever since we got to this island, we've had nothing but bad luck. One disaster after another. What do you think caused it?
GilliganI thought we all agreed it was me.
Gilligan[after the raft sinks in the lagoon, and the castaways make it back to shore] Hey Skipper? We sank anyway without the gold.
Oh, I'm afraid this is all my fault, folks. Why, I didn't think one bag of gold would sink us.
Two bags.
Three bags.
Four bags.
Five bags.
Six bags.
Gilligan[after they all look at him, he scoffs] That's a switch. Usually I'm one left holding the bag.
[Gilligan & The Professor are digging a hole to bury the statue of Kona] There. That should be deep enough.
GilliganMake it a little deeper, Professor. I want to put him down so deep he'll get the bends.
Gilligan, that statue is not getting out of this hole.
GilliganPlease make it a little deeper.
[the professor digs for a bit more, then puts the statue in the hole]
[the Skipper comes along and falls into the hole. He sees what's in the hole with him, jumps out and runs away]
Aaah! Kona!
GilliganHey Skipper! Watch out for that... [sharp cracking sound] ...tree.
[a flash happens outside the hut] Fire! Fire!
[In comes Gilligan dressed as Watubi with Mary Ann and Ginger as his assistants]
Watubi! I didn't think you were gonna make it!
GilliganNeither did I. [Ginger and Mary Ann nudge him, goes into character] Watubi here to lift Curse of Kona!
[Smacks the Skipper on his stomach with his wand]
What did you think of my Mark Anthony?
Terrible! Terrible! Terrible!
GilliganDon't mind him, Skipper. He just says what he's taught.
And who's been teaching him?
GilliganI don't know.
Gilligan! Gilligan! Gilligan!
GilliganBlabberbeak!
This is your moment of truth, little buddy. Please don't spill the soup on the Howells.
GilliganBe of good cheer, Skipper. For I will... [picks up the tray of soup bowls] ...not spill the soup.
[seeing Gilligan playing a drum] Oh, Gilligan, I am hungry for music!
Gilligan[pausing] Would you like a drumstick?
Sam wants a cracker. Sam wants a cracker.
Gilligan, your parrot would like another cracker.
GilliganI've already given him fifteen crackers.
Gilligan?
[Gilligan reluctantly gets out of his hammock, goes over and tosses another cracker in Sam's cage, then goes to get back in his hammock]
Gilligan, as soon as you get back in your hammock, he's gonna want another cracker. Why don't you give him the whole box so we can both get some sleep.
[Gilligan nods, then goes back and throws the rest of the crackers in the box into Sam's cage, then returns to his hammock]
There. That oughta do it.
GilliganYeah. Couldn't imagine what he'd want now.
[Puts his hat over his face]
Sam wants a drink of water. Sam wants...
