[Sees Gilligan coming back with a lobster trap and the stick the Professor was using] Gilligan, where did you find that stick?
Oh this old stick? I've been using it to tie my lobster trap from.
Oh really? Well that old stick just happens to be the same stick I had been using to measure the water in the lagoon.
[Gulps] I've been putting it out deeper to catch bigger lobsters.
Well, that explains it. The island isn't sinking after all.
