Here's the cave I was
telling you about.
You were right.
It is big enough
for all 7 of us.
That's right,
and food
and a big
water supply
and everything.
Anybody home?!
Home, home!
Will you stop
fooling around?
Those headhunters
are closer
every minute.
Do those headhunters
really cut off your head?
Yes. They cut them off,
they shrink them,
and they put them on
the ends of sticks.
Eww, what crazy canes.
I'm gonna get outta here.
They're not gonna take me
without a chase.
Come back here,
gilligan.
We need some bamboo
for weapons--
some Spears
and clubs and
everything.
Now go get some.
Aye, aye, sir.
Gilligan, you
don't have to try
and knock
your own head off.
The natives will
do it for you.
First it was day,
and then it
was night,
and then it was
day...Then it
was night...
What's the matter,
gilligan?
How come you two guys
are upside down?
Upside down?
What are you
talking about?
How come...The whole world
is upside down?
I got
my medical book
in the supply hut.
I'll see
if there's a cure
for your condition.
Yeah. Please hurry.
Seeing everything
upside down makes
me awful dizzy.
What a time
for this to happen
when all those headhunters
are closing in.
Yeah. They'll
probably mix it up
and cut off my feet.
Gilligan, take
it easy, now.
Just lean
against the table.
Yeah. Thanks, skipper.
I'm sorry I'm gonna
have to leave you,
little buddy,
but I gotta
go make some Spears.
Okay, I'll help you.
Come over here
and just sit down
at the table.
Now wait until the
professor comes back
with something
to fix you.
I better be careful.
I almost fell up.
Yes. Alright,
little buddy.
Stay right there.
Gilligan, have you
seen Mary Ann?
Those drums
keep getting
louder and louder,
and skipper
wants fresh water
for the cave,
and why have you
got your eyes closed?
Because I'm afraid
to open them.
Gilligan,
closing your eyes
won't make those
headhunters go away.
That's not what
I'm afraid of.
Then why have you
got your eyes closed?
'Cause you're standing
upside down,
and I'm afraid your dress
might fall up.
Gilligan,
that's ridiculous!
Hey, you're right.
It's staying there.
This is no time
to be playing games.
Those headhunters could
be here any minute.
It's not a game.
See, I was running along,
and I hit my head
against the branch--
I don't have time
to listen to you.
I've got to find
Mary Ann.
For a girl, she runs
pretty good on her head.
Got you, headhunters!
You fight very well, senor,
but not well enough for
the count of monte cristo.
Aha! So, you're
hiding in here!
Caught you
sneaking up on me!
Hah! Hah! Hah!
Thurston, be careful
with that thing.
I'm protecting you from
the evil headhunters,
my DEA--
My darling, exactly
whatever are you doing?
Well, if i'm
going to have my head
hanging on a wall,
I want it to be
properly coiffured
and chapeaued.
Don't worry, my dear.
They'll never touch
a hair on your head.
Yes, but the
professor said--
bah and humbug what
the professor said!
Just put your trust
in me faithful sword.
Exactly, uh...What did
the professor say?
Well, he said that our
only chance for survival
was to hide in a cave.
Oh, good heavens,
it took generations
of breeding
to get the howells
out of a cave.
Unless, of course,
you want to sit down
and reason with them.
My dear,
you reason with men
at the Harvard club,
not with men
who carry clubs.
You know, I understand that
they become quite childlike
if you offer them
a few trinkets.
My dear, you're
absolutely brilliant!
Just dazzle them with
your diamonds, my dear.
Oh, no, darling.
Not diamonds.
Natives
like rhinestones.
The aborigines
will never know
that they're real.
Gilligan, you're
a very lucky young man.
Lucky?
Yes. There's a Berry
that grows in this part
of the pacific
that has remarkable
curative properties
for optic disorders.
It's bad enough
having eye trouble. Now
I've got optic disorders.
Gilligan,
it's the same thing.
The captibora Berry
may be the cure
for your condition.
I'll eat anything
if it helps.
Now, there are a variety
of captibora plants
here on the island,
but I want
only the red berries
with the green dots.
So we must all make sure
we pick the right ones.
You mean
we all have to go out
and pick them?
Yes.
Oh, gilligan, i'm
awfully fond of you,
but I'm not going out
in that jungle alone.
Not while
those drums are beating.
What drums?
The ones
that are going--
they've stopped.
We're saved!
No headhunters?
Well,
they only attack
to the beating
of the Tom-Toms,
and since we don't
hear a drumbeat,
it follows
that we have
nothing to fear.
Nothing. Absolutely
nothing around here.
Poor gilligan.
Sure glad I don't
have his problem.
Mary Ann,
I think I found some!
Is it?
Oh, no. They have to have
green dots on them.
Oh, I'm exhausted.
Well, at least we don't
have any headhunters
to worry about.
Do you think there
really ever were any
headhunters?
Well, the professor
thought so.
Well, that's because
he heard the drumbeats,
but we never
actually saw one.
I know, but back in Kansas,
the farmers have a saying--
it's the wolf you
don't see--that's the one
you have to worry about.
Oh, but you don't
come from a farm,
so I guess you don't know
anything about wolves.
You kidding? I come
from Hollywood.
Let's concentrate on finding
more captibora berries.
Ooh. That name.
The cure sounds worse
than the disease.
Did you say something?
No.
Mary Ann, ginger!
I found some
of the berries.
I can't tell if it's
quarter to 3:00 or...
Half past 9:00.
Who cares?
I'm hungry anyway.
It's hard to tell,
but I think that's
a papaya tree.
Yeah.
Maybe I'll do better
if I close my eyes.
Gilligan!
Gilligan,
are you around, boy?
Over here, Mr. Howell!
I don't remember
cuttin' that in half.
There you are,
gilligan.
Gilligan,
we've seen the cave,
and it just won't do.
Gilligan, my boy,
you have bursitis?
No. I see everything
upside down.
How nice! Now,
as I was saying,
we've seen the cave,
and it won't do.
Uh, gilligan,
Mrs. Howell is talking.
You--you must
look at her.
Well, okay, Mr. Howell,
I'll try.
You know, dear,
I think he's trying
to tell us something.
I'm trying to tell you
a lot of things.
I see everything
upside down.
The drums have stopped,
so there's
no more headhunters,
and we're out of danger.
No more headhunters?
The drums have stopped.
So they have.
That's marvelous news!
Let's celebrate!
Let's have a party.
Well, like I was
saying, see, I was
running along--
we'll wear paper hats
and play party games.
And charades.
Musical chairs.
Follow the leader.
Pin the tail
on the donkey.
You mean the Polo pony,
my dear.
Oh, naturally, darling.
What else?
Yes. And we'll have
something to eat--
something very inventive.
And maybe I'll get
some of my vintage
bubbly out...
I hope this medicine
works.
What if it doesn't?
Well, we'll have
to find another cure.
You can't go through
life like that.
Yeah. Imagine going
through life not knowing
which end is up.
Gilligan, I shall
withhold comment.
How long will
it take for that
medicine to work?
Its effect
should be immediate.
Listen, hand me that shell
over there to my left,
will you, please?
Oh, gilligan!
Sorry, professor,
but I didn't want
to spill it,
so I turned it
right side up which
is wrong side down,
'cause everything
I see right is wrong,
and everything wrong--
gilligan...do me
a favor, will you?
The next time
I ask for help,
refuse it.
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Now, go over there
and sit down.
Yes, sir.
Uh...mmm...
Ah. I made it.
Yes. What you've
made is a mess.
Hi, gilligan.
Hi, professor.
I found
a whole bunch
of berries.
Oh, wonderful,
skipper.
Now there's
one more thing
you can do
to make this experiment
a complete success.
What's that,
professor?
Take gilligan
outside.
Alright.
Come on,
Dr. Kildare.
Steady as she g--oh!
For a little guy,
you can sure get
in big trouble.
That's 'cause
I try harder.
Boy, the things
I do for you.
I'm sorry, skipper,
but this is
the only way
I can talk to you
without falling down...
Or up, or sideways.
Skipper,
you are standing
on your head,
aren't you?
Of course I am,
professor.
Oh, good.
For a minute,
I thought I was
working too hard.
Come on, gilligan.
Give him some of that stuff
before I kill myself.
No, gilligan.
That's it.
Now, close your eyes.
Now, just take
one sip.
Ugh!
Drink it,
will you?
It smells awful.
Oh, the smell
is nothing compared
to the taste.
Oh. That's different.
There. That wasn't
so bad, was it?
No, that wasn't so bad. It
wasn't bad. It was horrible!
Alright, now,
gilligan...
Very slowly...
Open your eyes.
Do you still see
everything upside down?
No. I see everything
right side up.
Well, then why are
your eyes closed?
Well...
I see 2 of everything.
2?
Yeah. 1 skipper,
2 skipper...
1 professor,
2 professor.
What?
What?
1 skipper, 2 skipper,
3 professor, 4.
5 professor,
6 professor,
7 professor more.
Yaaaaahhhh!
Alright, gilligan,
close your eyes.
Why does he keep
seeing double now?
Well, it's probably
the captibora
berries.
They seem
to have unstable
properties.
We've got to find
some kind of a cure
for my little buddy.
Thanks, thanks,
skipper, skipper.
"Thanks, thanks,
skipper, skipper"?
I didn't want to miss
either one of you.
Gilligan,
open your eyes.
Oh, the pupils
are extremely
dilated.
That's bad, huh?
Well,
not necessarily.
This entire
problem
is probably
a temporary reaction
to the captibora
extract.
Frankly,
I'm not overly
concerned.
I'm not, either,
if it was happening
to somebody else.
I'll have to prepare
a new extract,
something
to counteract
the last one.
Ginger said
that you wanted
to see us.
Yes, I did. It concerns
our young friend here.
Oh, you mean that
he sees everything
upside down.
Mr. Howell,
you only see
one gilligan, right?
Well, that seems
to be quite sufficient.
Well, I see 2 Mr. Howells
and 2 Mrs. Howells.
Well, lucky boy.
Imagine seeing 4 howells
at one viewing.
Mr. Howell, we've
all gotta pitch in
and work hard.
Uh, yes. Yes. I shall
donate a sizable sum
to medical science.
Oh, and I'll go
to see him on
visiting hours.
We must all go
into the jungle and
collect captibora berries.
With our hands?!
That's right!
But that's
manual labor!
Mr. Howell, hard work
never hurt anybody.
Well, it never
helped anyone, either.
But it's
for gilligan!
Oh, that's the unkindest
cut of all,
appealing to my
sentimental side.
Well, darling,
let's cooperate
and pick berries.
But it's manual labor.
Suppose someone
should see us.
We'll wear dark glasses.
No one will ever
recognize us.
Ha ha! Good thinking!
We shall carry on.
You stay right
here now, little buddy,
and we'll be back
in no time.
Oh, by the way,
gilligan. There may
be other side effects
caused by the sun's rays
and the dilation
of your pupils.
The refraction could
cause hallucinations.
That's okay
as long as I don't
start seeing things.
Gilligan, that's
what the professor means
by "hallucinations."
To put it more simply,
don't believe
everything you see.
You mean if I see
the creature from the black
lagoon, I shouldn't worry.
Exactly.
It won't be real.
What if I see
brigitte bardot in a towel?
Call me!
Everything's double,
including my appetite.
I'm twice as hungry
as I was before.
Oh, boy...Bananas.
The professor was right.
I--i can't believe
anything I see.
Well, if it's
not that one,
it must be this one.
I bet the professor
never thought
I'd start seeing
things like that.
I know
there's another bush
down by the lagoon.
Now, the professor said
that we've got to fill
as many baskets up
as we can.
Oh, gilligan,
we've got your
captibora berries.
Thanks, I'll take 'em.
Oh, here, we'll
hand them to you.
Yeah, it'll
work better that way.
Do you still see
2 of me?
Yeah, one there
and one there.
Wouldn't it
be wonderful
if there really were
two of me?
One of me could
go out on a date,
and the other
could stay home
and get some sleep.
Oh, and you'd spend
twice as much time
under the dryer,
twice as much time
washing,
and twice as much time ironing.
Killjoy.
Gilligan, we'll go get
you some more berries.
I'll wait here
for the 4 of you.
2 tables,
and I can't hit one.
Gilligan!
Gilligan!
Gilligan, gilligan, my boy.
We found a veritable
gold mine of berries.
Oh, hi, Mr. and Mrs. Howell
and friends.
Oh, we've had
the most marvelous luck.
No, no, no,
skill, my dear, skill.
While the others
were bumbling around,
my helpmate and I succeeded
in our little quest.
We each found a Berry.
One?
Each.
Each.
That's right--
very exhausting,
but well worth it
if it will
straighten you out.
Straighten him out?
Oh, don't tell me
he won't be
the confusing boy
we've grown
to know and love?
No, I mean,
just to correct
his eyesight,
my dear.
Don't worry, Mrs. Howell,
I'll stay mixed up as ever.
Oh, that's thoughtful
of you, dear.
Well, well,
it's siesta time.
Yes, Berry picking's
very tiring.
Oh! Don't you
hit my wife!
Aah!
Get that knife
out of my way!
Oh! Mr. and Mrs. Howell,
they got you, too?!
Well, we didn't
engage them
as tour guides,
I'll tell you that.
Careful,
these men are savages.
Thurston,
why don't you tell
them who you are?
Good idea.
Now, look here, I am
thurston howell III.
Who's head man, here?
What's--what's your
union affiliations,
local headhunters
802, huh?
Thurston, why don't
you go get some of
our trinkets?
Good idea.
Get the trinkets.
Hyah!
I don't think
he understood me.
Well, I understand him
perfectly.
What are we
going to do?!
We're gonna wait
for the professor,
skipper and gilligan
to rescue us.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
I have an idea.
It always works.
It's a universal language.
Here, my good man,
here is $50,000.
Grr.
It's money!
M-o-n-e-y.
He doesn't understand.
He is utterly uncivilized.
A little under the table?
Gilligan.
I've got another dose
of the medication
ready for you.
Do I have to?
Well, unless you
enjoy seeing double.
Professor, I can't
find the girls
or the howells
anyplace.
Well,
they must be somewhere
in the vicinity.
Yeah, I saw 8 of them ago
about a half an hour.
All 8 of them?
Yeah, there was
2 Mary anns, 2 gingers--
oh, never mind.
Now, gilligan,
I want you to take
just one sip,
close your eyes,
and don't open them
again until I tell you.
Okay.
Now when you open
your eyes,
your vision
should be cleared.
Alright, gilligan,
open your eyes.
I see 5 professors
and 5 skippers.
5 images?!
Of everything?
Oh, no. The extract
must have reacted
in some sort of weird
geometric progression.
Well, professor,
I'm afraid
you're not helping
my little buddy
at all.
I'm afraid not,
skipper.
Gilligan, forgive me.
I will, professor,
as soon as you get rid
of all those people.
However, it should
be possible
to reverse the process.
We must dilute
the extract.
Here, gilligan,
close your eyes
and drink this water.
Now, keep drinking.
Now, keep drinking.
Alright,
open your eyes.
Well?
I see one of you, each.
That's wonderful!
He's cured!
Yes!
Well, not quite,
I still see the natives
I've been imagining.
What natives?
The ones I've been
imagining all day.
What natives
have you been
imagining all day?
Like the one who's about
to grab the professor.
Gilligan, you haven't
been imagining.
He's real.
Real?
Yow!
Oh!
Whoo!
1...2...3.
And one of me.
That's 3 against 1.
If I could only
get them outnumbered.
Outnumbered?
Yeah.
Ugh.
What did they say?
Before they kill us,
they plan on taking us
to their island
for a formal
ceremony.
Oh, did you say
formal ceremony?
Yes.
Oh, well, then, professor,
you must have
exaggerated their
brutality.
Nobody who gives
a formal
can be all bad.
Professor, you speak
their language.
Can't you talk
to them?
Well, ginger,
it's not a matter
of talking to them.
It's their tribal custom
to kill all strangers.
Well, let's try
being friendly.
Okay.
Yes.
What harm can it do?
Yoo-hoo!
It would appear
they don't
make friends.
Well, I'm not
giving up hope.
Thank you,
Mary poppins.
Well, but
gilligan's still free.
He can rescue us.
Gilligan rescue us?!
He couldn't
pick the winner
of a one-horse race.
I wouldn't put it
past him
to walk right up
and get himself captured.
Oh, no!
Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm-mm.
Nummy-num-num.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
What'd I tell you?
Our hero.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Hi, everybody.
Gilligan, why did you
give yourself up?
I got an idea.
Oh, brother.
I have ideas.
I know.
Well, I thought
of that Berry juice,
which makes you see double,
makes you see 3 times
and 4 times.
And if they drink it...
Yes, then they'd
see 4 times
as many of us.
And they'll think
they're outnumbered.
It's
an excellent plan.
Oh, it is
an excellent plan.
I just wish somebody else
had thought of it.
Well, what
difference does it make
who thought of it?
Well, because gilligan's
the only one I know
that can snatch defeat
right out of the mouth
of victory.
Look! They're drinking
the potion.
Now, if it takes
as long on them
as it took on me...
Yeah,
right about now.
Aaah!
Oh, gilligan.
Gilligan!
You did it,
gilligan!
You did it!
And Mr. Howell gave me
a neat $100 bill,
and the professor gave me
a neat magnifying glass,
and ginger gave me
a neat kiss.
How come she never
gives me something good,
like a slingshot?
Well, but gilligan,
they were giving you
tokens of appreciation
for saving their lives.
Well, they didn't
have to do that.
They'd do
the same thing
for me.
Gilligan, I baked you
a banana cream pie.
Oh,
that's beautiful.
I can hardly wait
to eat it.
Oh, gilligan!
Don't drink that!
Gilligan!
You just drank
that captibora extract.
I know it.
Well?
Now I've got 5 pies.

Here's the cave I was
telling you about.
You were right.
It is big enough
for all 7 of us.
That's right,
and food
and a big
water supply
and everything.
Anybody home?!
Home, home!
Will you stop
fooling around?
Those headhunters
are closer
every minute.
Do those headhunters
really cut off your head?
Yes. They cut them off,
they shrink them,
and they put them on
the ends of sticks.
Eww, what crazy canes.
I'm gonna get outta here.
They're not gonna take me
without a chase.
Come back here,
gilligan.
We need some bamboo
for weapons--
some Spears
and clubs and
everything.
Now go get some.
Aye, aye, sir.
Gilligan, you
don't have to try
and knock
your own head off.
The natives will
do it for you.
First it was day,
and then it
was night,
and then it was
day...Then it
was night...
What's the matter,
gilligan?
How come you two guys
are upside down?
Upside down?
What are you
talking about?
How come...The whole world
is upside down?
I got
my medical book
in the supply hut.
I'll see
if there's a cure
for your condition.
Yeah. Please hurry.
Seeing everything
upside down makes
me awful dizzy.
What a time
for this to happen
when all those headhunters
are closing in.
Yeah. They'll
probably mix it up
and cut off my feet.
Gilligan, take
it easy, now.
Just lean
against the table.
Yeah. Thanks, skipper.
I'm sorry I'm gonna
have to leave you,
little buddy,
but I gotta
go make some Spears.
Okay, I'll help you.
Come over here
and just sit down
at the table.
Now wait until the
professor comes back
with something
to fix you.
I better be careful.
I almost fell up.
Yes. Alright,
little buddy.
Stay right there.
Gilligan, have you
seen Mary Ann?
Those drums
keep getting
louder and louder,
and skipper
wants fresh water
for the cave,
and why have you
got your eyes closed?
Because I'm afraid
to open them.
Gilligan,
closing your eyes
won't make those
headhunters go away.
That's not what
I'm afraid of.
Then why have you
got your eyes closed?
'Cause you're standing
upside down,
and I'm afraid your dress
might fall up.
Gilligan,
that's ridiculous!
Hey, you're right.
It's staying there.
This is no time
to be playing games.
Those headhunters could
be here any minute.
It's not a game.
See, I was running along,
and I hit my head
against the branch--
I don't have time
to listen to you.
I've got to find
Mary Ann.
For a girl, she runs
pretty good on her head.
Got you, headhunters!
You fight very well, senor,
but not well enough for
the count of monte cristo.
Aha! So, you're
hiding in here!
Caught you
sneaking up on me!
Hah! Hah! Hah!
Thurston, be careful
with that thing.
I'm protecting you from
the evil headhunters,
my DEA--
My darling, exactly
whatever are you doing?
Well, if i'm
going to have my head
hanging on a wall,
I want it to be
properly coiffured
and chapeaued.
Don't worry, my dear.
They'll never touch
a hair on your head.
Yes, but the
professor said--
bah and humbug what
the professor said!
Just put your trust
in me faithful sword.
Exactly, uh...What did
the professor say?
Well, he said that our
only chance for survival
was to hide in a cave.
Oh, good heavens,
it took generations
of breeding
to get the howells
out of a cave.
Unless, of course,
you want to sit down
and reason with them.
My dear,
you reason with men
at the Harvard club,
not with men
who carry clubs.
You know, I understand that
they become quite childlike
if you offer them
a few trinkets.
My dear, you're
absolutely brilliant!
Just dazzle them with
your diamonds, my dear.
Oh, no, darling.
Not diamonds.
Natives
like rhinestones.
The aborigines
will never know
that they're real.
Gilligan, you're
a very lucky young man.
Lucky?
Yes. There's a Berry
that grows in this part
of the pacific
that has remarkable
curative properties
for optic disorders.
It's bad enough
having eye trouble. Now
I've got optic disorders.
Gilligan,
it's the same thing.
The captibora Berry
may be the cure
for your condition.
I'll eat anything
if it helps.
Now, there are a variety
of captibora plants
here on the island,
but I want
only the red berries
with the green dots.
So we must all make sure
we pick the right ones.
You mean
we all have to go out
and pick them?
Yes.
Oh, gilligan, i'm
awfully fond of you,
but I'm not going out
in that jungle alone.
Not while
those drums are beating.
What drums?
The ones
that are going--
they've stopped.
We're saved!
No headhunters?
Well,
they only attack
to the beating
of the Tom-Toms,
and since we don't
hear a drumbeat,
it follows
that we have
nothing to fear.
Nothing. Absolutely
nothing around here.
Poor gilligan.
Sure glad I don't
have his problem.
Mary Ann,
I think I found some!
Is it?
Oh, no. They have to have
green dots on them.
Oh, I'm exhausted.
Well, at least we don't
have any headhunters
to worry about.
Do you think there
really ever were any
headhunters?
Well, the professor
thought so.
Well, that's because
he heard the drumbeats,
but we never
actually saw one.
I know, but back in Kansas,
the farmers have a saying--
it's the wolf you
don't see--that's the one
you have to worry about.
Oh, but you don't
come from a farm,
so I guess you don't know
anything about wolves.
You kidding? I come
from Hollywood.
Let's concentrate on finding
more captibora berries.
Ooh. That name.
The cure sounds worse
than the disease.
Did you say something?
No.
Mary Ann, ginger!
I found some
of the berries.
I can't tell if it's
quarter to 3:00 or...
Half past 9:00.
Who cares?
I'm hungry anyway.
It's hard to tell,
but I think that's
a papaya tree.
Yeah.
Maybe I'll do better
if I close my eyes.
Gilligan!
Gilligan,
are you around, boy?
Over here, Mr. Howell!
I don't remember
cuttin' that in half.
There you are,
gilligan.
Gilligan,
we've seen the cave,
and it just won't do.
Gilligan, my boy,
you have bursitis?
No. I see everything
upside down.
How nice! Now,
as I was saying,
we've seen the cave,
and it won't do.
Uh, gilligan,
Mrs. Howell is talking.
You--you must
look at her.
Well, okay, Mr. Howell,
I'll try.
You know, dear,
I think he's trying
to tell us something.
I'm trying to tell you
a lot of things.
I see everything
upside down.
The drums have stopped,
so there's
no more headhunters,
and we're out of danger.
No more headhunters?
The drums have stopped.
So they have.
That's marvelous news!
Let's celebrate!
Let's have a party.
Well, like I was
saying, see, I was
running along--
we'll wear paper hats
and play party games.
And charades.
Musical chairs.
Follow the leader.
Pin the tail
on the donkey.
You mean the Polo pony,
my dear.
Oh, naturally, darling.
What else?
Yes. And we'll have
something to eat--
something very inventive.
And maybe I'll get
some of my vintage
bubbly out...
I hope this medicine
works.
What if it doesn't?
Well, we'll have
to find another cure.
You can't go through
life like that.
Yeah. Imagine going
through life not knowing
which end is up.
Gilligan, I shall
withhold comment.
How long will
it take for that
medicine to work?
Its effect
should be immediate.
Listen, hand me that shell
over there to my left,
will you, please?
Oh, gilligan!
Sorry, professor,
but I didn't want
to spill it,
so I turned it
right side up which
is wrong side down,
'cause everything
I see right is wrong,
and everything wrong--
gilligan...do me
a favor, will you?
The next time
I ask for help,
refuse it.
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Now, go over there
and sit down.
Yes, sir.
Uh...mmm...
Ah. I made it.
Yes. What you've
made is a mess.
Hi, gilligan.
Hi, professor.
I found
a whole bunch
of berries.
Oh, wonderful,
skipper.
Now there's
one more thing
you can do
to make this experiment
a complete success.
What's that,
professor?
Take gilligan
outside.
Alright.
Come on,
Dr. Kildare.
Steady as she g--oh!
For a little guy,
you can sure get
in big trouble.
That's 'cause
I try harder.
Boy, the things
I do for you.
I'm sorry, skipper,
but this is
the only way
I can talk to you
without falling down...
Or up, or sideways.
Skipper,
you are standing
on your head,
aren't you?
Of course I am,
professor.
Oh, good.
For a minute,
I thought I was
working too hard.
Come on, gilligan.
Give him some of that stuff
before I kill myself.
No, gilligan.
That's it.
Now, close your eyes.
Now, just take
one sip.
Ugh!
Drink it,
will you?
It smells awful.
Oh, the smell
is nothing compared
to the taste.
Oh. That's different.
There. That wasn't
so bad, was it?
No, that wasn't so bad. It
wasn't bad. It was horrible!
Alright, now,
gilligan...
Very slowly...
Open your eyes.
Do you still see
everything upside down?
No. I see everything
right side up.
Well, then why are
your eyes closed?
Well...
I see 2 of everything.
2?
Yeah. 1 skipper,
2 skipper...
1 professor,
2 professor.
What?
What?
1 skipper, 2 skipper,
3 professor, 4.
5 professor,
6 professor,
7 professor more.
Yaaaaahhhh!
Alright, gilligan,
close your eyes.
Why does he keep
seeing double now?
Well, it's probably
the captibora
berries.
They seem
to have unstable
properties.
We've got to find
some kind of a cure
for my little buddy.
Thanks, thanks,
skipper, skipper.
"Thanks, thanks,
skipper, skipper"?
I didn't want to miss
either one of you.
Gilligan,
open your eyes.
Oh, the pupils
are extremely
dilated.
That's bad, huh?
Well,
not necessarily.
This entire
problem
is probably
a temporary reaction
to the captibora
extract.
Frankly,
I'm not overly
concerned.
I'm not, either,
if it was happening
to somebody else.
I'll have to prepare
a new extract,
something
to counteract
the last one.
Ginger said
that you wanted
to see us.
Yes, I did. It concerns
our young friend here.
Oh, you mean that
he sees everything
upside down.
Mr. Howell,
you only see
one gilligan, right?
Well, that seems
to be quite sufficient.
Well, I see 2 Mr. Howells
and 2 Mrs. Howells.
Well, lucky boy.
Imagine seeing 4 howells
at one viewing.
Mr. Howell, we've
all gotta pitch in
and work hard.
Uh, yes. Yes. I shall
donate a sizable sum
to medical science.
Oh, and I'll go
to see him on
visiting hours.
We must all go
into the jungle and
collect captibora berries.
With our hands?!
That's right!
But that's
manual labor!
Mr. Howell, hard work
never hurt anybody.
Well, it never
helped anyone, either.
But it's
for gilligan!
Oh, that's the unkindest
cut of all,
appealing to my
sentimental side.
Well, darling,
let's cooperate
and pick berries.
But it's manual labor.
Suppose someone
should see us.
We'll wear dark glasses.
No one will ever
recognize us.
Ha ha! Good thinking!
We shall carry on.
You stay right
here now, little buddy,
and we'll be back
in no time.
Oh, by the way,
gilligan. There may
be other side effects
caused by the sun's rays
and the dilation
of your pupils.
The refraction could
cause hallucinations.
That's okay
as long as I don't
start seeing things.
Gilligan, that's
what the professor means
by "hallucinations."
To put it more simply,
don't believe
everything you see.
You mean if I see
the creature from the black
lagoon, I shouldn't worry.
Exactly.
It won't be real.
What if I see
brigitte bardot in a towel?
Call me!
Everything's double,
including my appetite.
I'm twice as hungry
as I was before.
Oh, boy...Bananas.
The professor was right.
I--i can't believe
anything I see.
Well, if it's
not that one,
it must be this one.
I bet the professor
never thought
I'd start seeing
things like that.
I know
there's another bush
down by the lagoon.
Now, the professor said
that we've got to fill
as many baskets up
as we can.
Oh, gilligan,
we've got your
captibora berries.
Thanks, I'll take 'em.
Oh, here, we'll
hand them to you.
Yeah, it'll
work better that way.
Do you still see
2 of me?
Yeah, one there
and one there.
Wouldn't it
be wonderful
if there really were
two of me?
One of me could
go out on a date,
and the other
could stay home
and get some sleep.
Oh, and you'd spend
twice as much time
under the dryer,
twice as much time
washing,
and twice as much time ironing.
Killjoy.
Gilligan, we'll go get
you some more berries.
I'll wait here
for the 4 of you.
2 tables,
and I can't hit one.
Gilligan!
Gilligan!
Gilligan, gilligan, my boy.
We found a veritable
gold mine of berries.
Oh, hi, Mr. and Mrs. Howell
and friends.
Oh, we've had
the most marvelous luck.
No, no, no,
skill, my dear, skill.
While the others
were bumbling around,
my helpmate and I succeeded
in our little quest.
We each found a Berry.
One?
Each.
Each.
That's right--
very exhausting,
but well worth it
if it will
straighten you out.
Straighten him out?
Oh, don't tell me
he won't be
the confusing boy
we've grown
to know and love?
No, I mean,
just to correct
his eyesight,
my dear.
Don't worry, Mrs. Howell,
I'll stay mixed up as ever.
Oh, that's thoughtful
of you, dear.
Well, well,
it's siesta time.
Yes, Berry picking's
very tiring.
Oh! Don't you
hit my wife!
Aah!
Get that knife
out of my way!
Oh! Mr. and Mrs. Howell,
they got you, too?!
Well, we didn't
engage them
as tour guides,
I'll tell you that.
Careful,
these men are savages.
Thurston,
why don't you tell
them who you are?
Good idea.
Now, look here, I am
thurston howell III.
Who's head man, here?
What's--what's your
union affiliations,
local headhunters
802, huh?
Thurston, why don't
you go get some of
our trinkets?
Good idea.
Get the trinkets.
Hyah!
I don't think
he understood me.
Well, I understand him
perfectly.
What are we
going to do?!
We're gonna wait
for the professor,
skipper and gilligan
to rescue us.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
I have an idea.
It always works.
It's a universal language.
Here, my good man,
here is $50,000.
Grr.
It's money!
M-o-n-e-y.
He doesn't understand.
He is utterly uncivilized.
A little under the table?
Gilligan.
I've got another dose
of the medication
ready for you.
Do I have to?
Well, unless you
enjoy seeing double.
Professor, I can't
find the girls
or the howells
anyplace.
Well,
they must be somewhere
in the vicinity.
Yeah, I saw 8 of them ago
about a half an hour.
All 8 of them?
Yeah, there was
2 Mary anns, 2 gingers--
oh, never mind.
Now, gilligan,
I want you to take
just one sip,
close your eyes,
and don't open them
again until I tell you.
Okay.
Now when you open
your eyes,
your vision
should be cleared.
Alright, gilligan,
open your eyes.
I see 5 professors
and 5 skippers.
5 images?!
Of everything?
Oh, no. The extract
must have reacted
in some sort of weird
geometric progression.
Well, professor,
I'm afraid
you're not helping
my little buddy
at all.
I'm afraid not,
skipper.
Gilligan, forgive me.
I will, professor,
as soon as you get rid
of all those people.
However, it should
be possible
to reverse the process.
We must dilute
the extract.
Here, gilligan,
close your eyes
and drink this water.
Now, keep drinking.
Now, keep drinking.
Alright,
open your eyes.
Well?
I see one of you, each.
That's wonderful!
He's cured!
Yes!
Well, not quite,
I still see the natives
I've been imagining.
What natives?
The ones I've been
imagining all day.
What natives
have you been
imagining all day?
Like the one who's about
to grab the professor.
Gilligan, you haven't
been imagining.
He's real.
Real?
Yow!
Oh!
Whoo!
1...2...3.
And one of me.
That's 3 against 1.
If I could only
get them outnumbered.
Outnumbered?
Yeah.
Ugh.
What did they say?
Before they kill us,
they plan on taking us
to their island
for a formal
ceremony.
Oh, did you say
formal ceremony?
Yes.
Oh, well, then, professor,
you must have
exaggerated their
brutality.
Nobody who gives
a formal
can be all bad.
Professor, you speak
their language.
Can't you talk
to them?
Well, ginger,
it's not a matter
of talking to them.
It's their tribal custom
to kill all strangers.
Well, let's try
being friendly.
Okay.
Yes.
What harm can it do?
Yoo-hoo!
It would appear
they don't
make friends.
Well, I'm not
giving up hope.
Thank you,
Mary poppins.
Well, but
gilligan's still free.
He can rescue us.
Gilligan rescue us?!
He couldn't
pick the winner
of a one-horse race.
I wouldn't put it
past him
to walk right up
and get himself captured.
Oh, no!
Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm-mm.
Nummy-num-num.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
What'd I tell you?
Our hero.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
Hi, everybody.
Gilligan, why did you
give yourself up?
I got an idea.
Oh, brother.
I have ideas.
I know.
Well, I thought
of that Berry juice,
which makes you see double,
makes you see 3 times
and 4 times.
And if they drink it...
Yes, then they'd
see 4 times
as many of us.
And they'll think
they're outnumbered.
It's
an excellent plan.
Oh, it is
an excellent plan.
I just wish somebody else
had thought of it.
Well, what
difference does it make
who thought of it?
Well, because gilligan's
the only one I know
that can snatch defeat
right out of the mouth
of victory.
Look! They're drinking
the potion.
Now, if it takes
as long on them
as it took on me...
Yeah,
right about now.
Aaah!
Oh, gilligan.
Gilligan!
You did it,
gilligan!
You did it!
And Mr. Howell gave me
a neat $100 bill,
and the professor gave me
a neat magnifying glass,
and ginger gave me
a neat kiss.
How come she never
gives me something good,
like a slingshot?
Well, but gilligan,
they were giving you
tokens of appreciation
for saving their lives.
Well, they didn't
have to do that.
They'd do
the same thing
for me.
Gilligan, I baked you
a banana cream pie.
Oh,
that's beautiful.
I can hardly wait
to eat it.
Oh, gilligan!
Don't drink that!
Gilligan!
You just drank
that captibora extract.
I know it.
Well?
Now I've got 5 pies.
