  Gilligan : Oh, it must open some big door, huh?

  Governor's Aide : The entire world was thrilled when the Coast Guard radioed word of your rescue after 15 years. Telegrams and calls have been pouring in. I'd like to present you with the most important one first. This telegram is from Jimmy Carter.

  Mr. Howell : Jimmy who?

  Mr. Howell : That's nothing odd at all. It's the dear boy reaching out to us from the great beyond.

  Gilligan : Help, Ginger, Mary Ann!

  Mary Ann : Ginger, do you believe in ghosts?

  Ginger Grant : No, but I believe Gilligan's haunting this hut.

  Gilligan : Help, Mr. and Mrs. Howell, somebody!

  Mrs. Howell : Somebody? How informal.

  Professor : That's Gilligan, and it sounds like he's just beyond that wall.

  Skipper : [sticks his head through the wall]  Little buddy, Gilligan! He's out there, everybody, and he's okay!
