				TEASER

FADE IN

EXT - LAGOON - EARLY MORNING

	Gilligan is seen listening to the radio as he relaxes 
	near the East side of the Lagoon. He is facing away 
	from the Lagoon with his hat pulled over his eyes.  In 
	the distance the sight and sound of a helicopter appear 
	as it makes it's way over the Lagoon.  Gilligan starts 
	to notices the sound of the helicopter but is unaware 
	what it is.

				GILLIGAN
			Sure is a lot of static today.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - CLOSE SHOT

	The helicopter is coming in over the lagoon.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	The radio continues to play as Gilligan becomes 
	increasingly agitated by the noise of the helicopter.

				GILLIGAN
			Must be a big storm some place, might as well 
			turn it off.

	Gilligan reaches over to the radio and turns it off.  
	He notices that the static has not stopped and he turns 
	towards the Lagoon and looks up to see the helicopter 
	moving slowly over the Lagoon.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - MORNING

	A type Bell 47 with pontoons is making it's way slowly 
	above the Lagoon as it turns and moves towards the North 
	side of the Lagoon. 

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	Gilligan continues to watch the helicopter and becomes 
	increasingly excited as he starts a mad dash along the 
	Lagoons East side pathway towards the direction of the 
	helicopter.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - MORNING

	The helicopter is seen moving slowly towards the beach 
	side of the Lagoon and finally makes it's landing. Two 
	people can be seen in the helicopter's large bubble 
	cockpit enclosure.

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - NEW VIEW POINT

	Gilligan is seen running along the path. He stops to 
	take another look at the helicopter and starts running 
	again.

CUT TO: PREVIOUS SHOT

	The helicopter's engine is heard to shut down and the 
	rotor blades start to slow down. The two men get out of 
	the helicopter and walk up the beach area of the 
	lagoon.  

CUT TO: EXT - LAGOON - WIDE SHOT

	Gilligan is still running at full speed. As he sees the 
	two people now standing near the Lagoon, he becomes 
	increasingly excited and starts to shout. 

				GILLIGAN
			Hey! Hey! Hey we're rescued!
			Hey! Hey! 
			Hey Mister! Hey Mister! 
			Hey Mister!

	Gilligan nearly runs one of the men over as he trips on 
	some carpet grass and tries to come to a stop. One of 
	the men catches Gilligan and keeps him from falling. 
	Gilligan, now more composed addressed the two men.

				GILLIGAN
			Hey mister am I glad to see you!

				KINCAID
			My name's Kincaid, Jonathan Kincaid.

				GILLIGAN
			Oh yeah, I'm Gilligan!  You…you don't know 
			what we've been through! We got no 
			television, no hot dogs, no licorice whips!…

				KINCAID
			We?! You mean there's other people on this 
			island besides you?

				GILLGIAN
			Yeah there's six of us, there on the other 
			side of the island, we were ship wrecked, a…I 
			got to tell 'em we're rescued! Oh and would 
			you please radio Hawaii and tell'em to come 
			pick us up?!

	Gilligan starts to leave and is stopped by Kincaid.

				KINCAID
			Wa..Wa..What a minute! Do you have any game 
			on this island?

				GILLGIAN
			Game? Yeah…oh yeah the Skipper's got some 
			checkers and I got a deck of cards and…

				KINCAID
			No no I mean do you have any wild goat or 
			wild boar.

				GILLGIAN
			Ah…no no we don't have any game like that at 
			all on the island…I've got to go tell the 
			others!

	Gilligan once again turns and runs off screen to find 
	the other castaways. The camera pans towards Kincaid 
	who now has a devious look on his face.

				KINCAID
			Seven people on this island and no body knows 
			they're here. (pause)
			It's very interesting. (pause) 
			Ramoo we're going hunting!

				RAMOO
			What you not hear? No game on island.

				KINCAID
			Perhaps not the four legged kind. 
			I've always wondered what it'd be like to 
			track down and kill the most challenging of 
			all game.

	Camera pans in on Kincaid as we see the devious look on 
	Kincaid's face as we…

								FADE OUT





				ACT ONE
FADE IN

EXT - HUT CLEARING - DAY - CREDIT OVERLAY - WIDE SHOT

	We see Gilligan, Kincaid and Ramoo enter the hut area 
	from off camera as the castaways are seen coming out of 
	their huts and begin to engage Kincaid and Ramoo as 
	they stare in disbelief. They are excitedly talking and 
	shake hands with Kincaid, but we cannot hear what's 
	being said.

FADE TO: CLOSE SHOT - HUT CLEARING - ANGLE ON KINCAID

				KINCAID
			...so I explained to the authorities that 
			because of the size of my helicopter, they'd 
			have to send a boat. I gave them our exact 
			position and the boat will be here tomorrow 
			morning at ten o'clock.

	At the news of the boats arrival, all the castaways 
	start making ad lib comments of excitement.

				SKIPPER
			   (EXCITEDLY YELLING)
			…man when I get back I'm going right to an 
			Italian restaurant, and I'm gonna have eight 
			or ten pizzas, six dozen meat balls, two 
			piles of spaghetti and then I'm going to have 
			dinner!!

	The castaways start to leave the hut area as a group 
	still add libbing.

				MRS HOWELL
			I don't know what to wear!

	As the castaways leave, the camera pans and zooms in on 
	Kincaid.

				KINCAID
			Well Ramoo, which one will be our victim?
			The skipper? The Professor? Mary Ann?

				RAMOO
			Ramoo think not difference.

				KINCAID
			Oh come on man where's your sense of the 
			hunt?  I want a quarry that a…will present me 
			with a challenge.  Somebody that's nimble, 
			agile.

				RAMOO
			Who that one?

CUT TO: CLOSE UP - ANGLE ON KINCAID

				KINCAID
			I don't know. I'll have to question each and 
			every one of them to find out who will give 
			me the best run for my money.

FADE TO: INT - HOWELL'S HUT - DAY

	Mrs. Howell is making preparations to leave the island 
	and is packing her suitcase with her belongings. Mr. 
	Howell stands near her ready to help.

				MRS HOWELL
			I don't know how we're going to explain to 
			our friends that we spent several years with 
			people who aren't even in the social 
			register.

				MR HOWELL
			Well a…our friends will just have to realize 
			my dear that one is marooned one must take 
			pot luck!

	Mr. Howell takes the suitcase from Mrs. Howell and with 
	great effort places it down.

				MR HOWELL
			There you go…oh that's heavy! You have your 
			jewelry in there.

	Kincaid enters the Howells hut carrying a high powered 
	bolt action rifle with a scope.

				MR HOWELL
			Ah…ah…goo…hello there Mr. Kincaid.

	Kincaid sees that Mr. Howell is having a little 
	difficulty.

				KINCAID
			Need any help?

				MR HOWELL
			No…no…no…no…we Howells make a point of…a 
			keeping fit.

				MRS HOWELL
			As an example to the little people.

				MR HOWELL
			Yes the last cotillion we attended, Mrs. 
			Howell danced every dance and was hardly out 
			of breath!

				MRS HOWELL
			You know Mr. Howell's office is on the second 
			floor and sometimes he doesn't even take the 
			elevator!

				MR HOWELL
			A sound mind and a sound body.

	Mr. Howell notices the rifle Kincaid is holding and 
	reaches out to take it.

				MR HOWELL
			My that is a beaut…hand tooled…you didn't get 
			that at a discount.

	Mr. Howell examines the rifle and points it at Mrs. 
	Howell who is shocked to see Her husband holding her at 
	gun point.

				MRS HOWELL
			Ah!

	Mr. Howell appears rather pleased with himself at her 
	reaction.

				MR HOWELL
			Almost caught her on the rise!

	Kincaid takes back the rifle.

				KINCAID
			Are you a…a hunter Mr. Howell?

				MR HOWELL
			Well no…but I a went on a…a tiger hunt once.  
			I shot three of the ugly beasts in fifteen 
			minutes.

				KINCAID
			Three in fifteen minutes, why that's 
			utterly fantastic! You must have been 
			pleased!

				MR HOWELL
			I was but the directors of the zoo were 
			infuriated!

	Kincaid looks at Mr. Howell with a deep sense of 
	disapproval and disappointment. Mr. Howell starts 
	to leave the hut discussing his unorthodox 
	approach to fishing. 

				MR HOWELL
			I went fishing in the aquarium I thought 
			they weren't pleased I'll tell you that…

	Kincaid has heard enough and starts to leave the 
	Howell's hut all the while making notes in his ever 
	present note pad.

FLIP TO: INT - MARY ANN & GINGER'S HUT - DAY 

	Mary Ann and Ginger are in their hut discussing 
	going home, while Kincaid looks on.

				MARY ANN
			I can hardly wait to get back to Kansas. 
			Why the first thing I'm going to do is 
			bake an apple pie, and then I'm going to 
			milk the cows and then I'm going to feed 
			the chickens!

				KINCAID
			Well you farm people have to stay in 
			good condition.

				MARY ANN
			Oh we certainly do! You know I once ran 
			a hundred yards in fifteen seconds!

				KINCAID
			Fifteen seconds?!

				MARY ANN
			Oh yes.  I was being chased by a bull!

				GINGER
			Oh that's nothing.  I once ran a hundred 
			yards in ten seconds.

				KINCAID
			Ten seconds?!

				GINGER
			Huh hum, I was being chased by a 
			Hollywood producer!

	After hearing that, Kincaid is about as happy 
	with Ginger as he was with Mr. Howell and makes 
	notes in his note pad.

FLIP TO: INT – GIILGIAN'S & SKIPPER'S HUT - DAY 

	Kincaid is standing while making notes in his 
	note pad as he converses with the Professor 
	sitting at a table.

				KINCAID
			…P H D at twenty five?!
			Well it sounds like you didn't have much 
			time for sports.

				PROFESSOR
			Well I don't want to sound immodest but 
			I was the number one man on my team!

				KINCAID
			Really?!…Baseball?

	Professor shakes his head no.

				KINCAID
			Basketball?

	Professor shakes his head no again.

				KINCAID
			Football?

	Once again the Professor shakes his head no.

				KINCAID
			Hockey?

	For the last time the Professor indicates no and 
	then finally gives in.

				PROFESSOR
			Chess!

	As with Mr. Howell and Ginger, Kincaid is seen as 
	being not too please with the Professor's answer. 
	He makes further notes in his note pad.

	The skipper and Gilligan are standing near by 
	listening to Kincaid's and the Professor's 
	conversation. Kincaid turns his attention to the 
	skipper.

				KINCAID
			How about you skipper?

				SKIPPER
			Well Mr. Kincaid football was my game in 
			High school. I played the line.

				KINCAID
			Oh…what position?

				SKIPPER
			No position…I WAS the line!

	The skipper reliving his high school days, gets 
	down on the floor taking up a stance as if he was 
	on the front line of a football team. Gilligan 
	takes an obvious look behind the skipper. Kincaid 
	continues to make notes in his pad.

				SKIPPER
			I'll never forget…

				GILLIGAN
			You got a pretty good back field too!

				SKIPPER
			    (Sarcastically)
			Thanks a lot Gilligan!
			It's easy for you to talk, look at the 
			way your built!
			I'm mean he's young and wirey. He can 
			run as fast as a rabbit, climb a tree 
			like a monkey.  Why trying to keep up 
			with him is impossible!

	At those words, Kincaid puts on his devious look 
	again as he sees Gilligan in a different light 
	while he makes notes on his note pad.

FAD TO: EXT – HUT CLEARING - DAY

	The castaways are all in the clearing near the 
	skipper's and Gilligan's hut setting up a going 
	away party. A banner over the door reads; 
	"FAREWELL TO OUR ISLAND". Mr. Howell appears to 
	be directing the activity. Mary Ann and Ginger 
	are bringing out items for the party.

				MR HOWELL
			There you are…put that over there girls.  

	Mr. Howell sees Kincaid and Ramoo approaching.

				MR HOWELL
			Oh…oh here comes our guest of honor now.
			Remember skipper?

				SKIPPER
			Everybody now…

	All the castaways turn their attention to Kincaid 
	and Ramoo as they start to sing…

				ALL
			For he's a jolly good fellow!
			For he's a jolly good fellow!
			For he's a jolly good fellow!
			Which no body can deny!

	All the castaways start to clap.

				SKIPPER
			Speech!

				MR HOWELL
			Speech, speech, speech!

				KINCAID
			Thanks you, thank you very much!
			I hope you can feel the same way after 
			my little announcement.

			Ladies and gentleman I have chosen one 
			of you to go on a little hunting trip.

	The castaways appear surprised and delighted with 
	the idea.

				MR HOWELL
			Here here!

				PROFESSOR
			Mr. Kincaid there isn't any game on this 
			island!

				KINCAID
			Oh yes there is, you see I'm planning on 
			hunting one of you.

	The castaways are no longer so delighted.

				GILLIGIAN
			Hey that's kind of funny.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan, he's not smiling.

				MARY ANN
			Well that's ridiculous. People don't 
			hunt people.

				MRS HOWELL
			Mr. Kincaid this joke is in extremely 
			poor taste!


				KINCAID
			Madame, I assure you I'm not joking.

				PROFESSOR
			Do you intend to hunt one of us, and 
			then gun your victim down in cold 
			blood?!

				KINCAID
			Very well put Professor. As added 
			incentive to your participation in this 
			adventure, if the one I'm hunting can 
			elude me for twenty-four hours, I'll see 
			that your all returned to civilization.

	The castaways now have a look of doom on their 
	faces. Kincaid starts to look at each castaway in 
	turn as he makes his decision.

				GINGER
			But…but I'm a girl!

				KINCAID
			That's quite obvious.

	Kincaid looks next at Mary Ann

				MARY ANN
			Me!?

				KINCAID
			My dear, shooting you would be like 
			shooting an Easter bunny.

	Kincaid then fixes his gaze on Mrs. Howell.

				KINCAID
			As for you Madame.

				MRS HOWELL
			You wouldn't dare!

				KINCAID
			Don't tempt me.  But I plan to start 
			this hunt before noon, and I'm sure at 
		that early hour your blue blood wouldn't 
			be circulating.

	Mrs. Howell is upset at being insulted.

				MRS HOWELL
			I never heard such nerve!  Why for 
			something important I can get up as 
			early as anyone else!

	Mr. Howell realizes how absurd Mrs. Howells 
	comment is and steps in.

				MR HOWELL
			Lovey, if the man says your blood 
			doesn't circulate don't argue!

	Kincaid, hearing Mr. Howell turns his attention 
	to him.

				KINCAID
			As for you, I'd love to let some hot air 
			out of your stuffed shirt!

	Kincaid then focuses on the Professor.

				KINCAID
			Over here we have a chess player. By the 
			time he's figuring out his next move I'd 
			have him in my bag!

	Kincaid then spots the skipper.

				SKIPPER
			Now look Kincaid, this is a lot of 
			nonsense!

				KINCAID
			Skipper! Your too big a target.

	Gilligan then assesses the situation and is 
	relieved that no one was selected.

				GILLIGAN
			I'm glad it's not you or Ginger or Mary 
			Ann or Mr. Or Mrs. Howell or the 
			Professor.

	Gilligan now realizes that he's the only one 
	Kincaid has left out. 

				GILLIGAN
			You mean it's…

	Gilligan then silently points at himself.

				KINCAID
			Ramoo, take him away.

	Ramoo takes Giligan by the arm and starts to lead 
	him off.

				SKIPPER
			Now you be careful with him, that's my 
			little buddy!

	Ramoo, on seeing the skipper coming at him sticks 
	the skipper with the tip of his spear, as the 
	skipper lets out a yelp of pain. Ramoo leads 
	Gilligan off.  The skipper and the professor are 
	left behind and the professor waits for Kincaid 
	to disappear around the hut.

				PROFESSOR
			Skipper, when I get a chance, I'll make 
			a break for the helicopter and radio for 
			help.

				SKIPPER
			That's a great idea Professor, well show 
			that big gun he can't push us around…

	Kincaid then pops back form around the hut.

				KINCAID
			Have any ideas about using the radio 
			forget it, I have the tubes.

	Kincaid can be seen with some radio tubes in his 
	hand.

FADE TO: INT - HUT - NIGHT

	Gilligan is seen laying on a table eating a steak 
	dinner as Ramoo gives him a leg massage. Kincaid 
	is present and is looking on holding his rifle.

				GILLLGIAN
			Mr. Kincaid you sure had me fooled. I 
			mean about shooting me tomorrow. Isn't 
			that a laugh!

				KINCAID
			Yes it does have it's humorous side.

	Kincaid starts laughing as Mr. Howell enters the 
	hut. He stares for a moment at Kincaid.

				MR HOWELL
			I want a word with you Kincaid.

	Mr. Howell goes over to Gilligan laying on the 
	table and eating steak dinner.

				MR HOWELL
			How are you my boy?

				GILLGIAN
			Oh I'm great Mr. Howell. You have Mr. 
			Kincaid all wrong. They're treating me 
			like a prince. I have steak and a leg 
			massage. I'm living it up.

				MR HOWELL
			Wa…Can't you figure out why my boy!?

				GILLIGAN
			Sure! They like me!

				MR HOWELL
			Like you!? They're fatting you up like a 
			Thanksgiving day Turkey and tomorrows 
			Thanksgiving day!

				GILLIGAN
			Did you hear that Mr. Kincaid? They 
			still believe it. Go on, tell'em your 
			not going to do anything. (pause)

	Kincaid just looks on without saying a word.

				GILLIGAN
			Mr. Kincaid? Tell them your not…
			Mr. Kincaid say something. Say anything 
			Mr. Kincaid!

	Gilligan tries to get up off the table and Ramoo 
	forces him back down.

				MR HOWELL
			Look ah, Mr. Kincaid, this young fellow 
			means a lot to me, say ah one hundred 
			thousand dollars?

				KINCAID
			No.

				MR HOWELL
			No…ah…Three Hundred Thousand?

				KINCAID
			No.

				MR HOWELL
			Well let's not quival with small change. 
			What about a half a million and a tip 
			for your friend with the bad headache?

				KINCAID
			You don't seem to understand. I'm not 
			interested in money.

				MR HOWELL
			You are sick!

	Mr. Howell leaves the hut as Kincaid turns his 
	attention back to Gilligan.

FADE TO: INT - HUT - NIGHT - LATER THAT EVENING

	Gilligan is seen pacing back and forth and 
	appears rather forlorn about being shot. Kincaid 
	watches him and tries to cheer him up.

				KINCAID
			Conserve some of that energy for 
			tomorrow, don't burn yourself out. And 
			stop looking so glum, after all you've 
			got a fifty-fifty chance.

	Gilligan has a look of hope on his face.

				GILLIGAN
			Fifty-fifty!?

				KINCAID
			Yes, whether you get it through the 
			heart or between the eyes.

TRANSCRIBERS NOTE: At this point it has been said 
that the scene continues with Ginger bringing in 
drinks to Kincaid laced with some drug to make him 
sleep. Gilligan ends up getting the drugged drink 
instead and falls fast asleep. I have never seen this 
scene so can not verify it.

CUT TO: EXT - CLEARING - MORNING

	It's the next day and Gilligan is seen standing 
	alone looking very frightened as Kincaid goes 
	over the rules of the hunt again

				KINCAID
			You know the rules. If you can survive 
			for twenty-four hours, you not only save 
			your life, but the lives of your 
			friends.

	Kincaid takes his watch and makes some 
	adjustments as well as sets the timer.


				KINCAID
			It's set to go off at exactly this time 
			tomorrow. And just to be sporting, I'm 
			going to give you a fifteen minute head 
			start. (pause) GO!!

	Gilligan is shocked into action and jumps 
	straight up in the air and in the process looses 
	both his sneakers. He starts to run and realizes 
	he's left his sneakers behind and goes back to 
	pick them up. 

				GILLIGAN
			Did you say fifteen or sixteen minutes?

				KINCAID
			You just lost ten seconds.

				GILLIGAN
			Oops!

	Gilligan turns and starts to run with his 
	sneakers still in his hand. Kincaid is looking at 
	Gilligan through the scope of the rifle with the 
	crosshairs aligned dead center on Gilligan's 
	back.

				KINCAID
				(VERBALLY)
			Bang!

	We cut back to Gilligan running for his life 
	through the jungle as we…


								FADE OUT





				ACT TWO
FADE IN: 

EXT - JUNGLE - DAY

	Gilligan is seen running through the jungle and is 
	obviously getting tired.

				GILLIGAN
			     (out of breath)
			I've got to keep running, I'm exhausted. He's 
			going to blast me into confetti. How long 
			have I been running?

	Gilligan stops to look at his watch.

				GILLIGAN
			    (out of breath)
			Five minutes! He hasn't even started after me 
			yet.

CUT TO: EXT - CAVE CLEARING - DAY

	The other castaways have been placed in a cave with 
	bamboo bars as a prison. Ramoo is finishing tying a 
	vine on the bamboo door to secure the prisoners.

				KINCAID
			Well I must leave now. Somewhere out there in 
			the jungle your little friend is waiting. 
			(pause)
			And I wouldn't want to disappoint him.
			Guard them well Ramoo.

				Ramoo
			Yes sir boss.

	Kincaid turns and heads out into the jungle in search 
	of Gilligan.

FADE TO: EXT - JUNGLE - DAY

	Gilligan is still trying to outdistance Kincaid through 
	the jungle and is getting very tired. He stops near a 
	large pile of leaves to take a rest.

				GILLIGAN
			It'll serve Kincaid right if I die of sun 
			stroke before he kills me. That is if I don't 
			die of thirst before I die of sun stoke 
			before I die of gun shot…Oh I'm so thirsty I 
			got to get some water.

	Gilligan is searching the area for water. As he's 
	looking, he looks up to see Kincaid walking towards 
	him. He makes the decision to frantically burrow under 
	the pile of leaves to hide form Kincaid.

	Kincaid is unaware of Gilligan's presence and decides 
	to take a break from the heat by sitting down on the 
	pile of leaves.  As he does so, he takes off his 
	canteen, unscrews the cap, takes a drink. When he's 
	done he screws the cap back on and then sets it on the 
	ground where Gilligan ends up seeing it.

	Gilligan is aware of Kincaid's presence above him, but 
	due to his extreme thirst, attempts to quietly take the 
	canteen anyway.

	Kincaid suddenly notices the canteen moving and 
	realizes he's not alone.

	Kincaid tries to grab Gilligan but Gilligan bolts out 
	from under the Pile of Leaves and knocks Kincaid off 
	balance in the process. Gilligan runs at full speed 
	down the path. By the time Kincaid finally regains his 
	balance, Gilligan is long gone.

FLIP TO: INT - CAVE - DAY

	The remaining castaways are sitting in the makeshift 
	prison that is being guarded by Ramoo.

				GINGER
			Poor Gilligan, eleven hours and he's still 
			running.

				PROFESSOR
			I'd be happy if he was still alive and 
			walking.

				MRS HOWELL
			Or Crawling!

				MARY ANN
			Now lets not give up hope. We've got to 
			believe Gilligan is still alive and he's 
			going to stay that way.

				GINGER
			Your not Mary Ann your Mary Poppins.

				PROFESSOR
			Never the less she's right! What we need is 
			positive thinking.

				SKIPPER
			Yeah well a bullet hasn't been made yet with 
			Gilligan's name on it. That guy'll never 
			catch'em. My little buddy is too fast!

				MR HOWELL 
			Yeah.

				PROFESSOR
			And cunning!

				MR HOWELL
			Yeah.

				PROFESSOR
			And Shifty!

				MR HOWELL
			Yeah,

				SKIPPER
			And Smart!

				MR HOWELL
			Three out of four that's not bad.

				SKIPPER
			Yeah.

FADE TO: STOCK SHOT OF PALM TREE AND OCEAN VIEW

FADE TO: EXT - JUNGLE - DAY

	Kincaid is seen walking through the jungle in search of 
	Gilligan. Gilligan is still evading Kincaid and decides 
	to climb a tree in order to possibly hide.  Kincaid 
	sees Gilligan and starts to take aim through the scope.  
	Gilligan sees Kincaid and grabs the first vine he finds 
	to swing away. Kincaid is just about ready to fire when 
	Gilligan makes his leap, but instead of swinging away 
	from Kincaid, he swings right into Kincaid knocking him 
	down. Gilligan makes his get away as Kincaid is picking 
	himself up and runs in Gilligan's direction.
			
FLIP TO: EXT - CAVE - DAY

	Ramoo is still guarding the cave where the remaining 
	castaways are being held captive.

				SKIPPER
			Ramoo!

	Ramoo is not interested in the skipper and lets out a 
	disapproving sound.

				RAMOO
			Aaaaaaaah!

CUT TO: INT - CAVE - MORNING

	All the castaways are in the cave but none are looking 
	any the better for it.

				SKIPPER
			There's one good thing about Ramoo still 
			guarding us that's the fact Gilligan got 
			through the night.

				PROFESSOR
			We've got to escape and go help him!

				GINGER
			   (depressingly)
			Six more hours.

				MR HOWELL
			I've got an idea.  Why don't we just tunnel 
			our way out of here!

				PROFESSOR
			Not through twenty-five feet of rock!? Why 
			with even dynamite and a steam shovel it 
			would take a month!

				MR HOWELL
			Oh details, details I just hate to be 
			bothered with details!

				SKIPPER
			I'm afraid we're stuck right here.

				MRS HOWELL
			Oh pooh there must be someway we can help 
			poor Gilligan.

				MARY ANN
			Oh I can't just sit still, I've never felt so 
			useless in my whole life!

				SKIPPER
			Well think of me! I'm three times as big as 
			you are I feel three times as useless!

	Mrs. Howell looks as if she has an idea and heads for 
	the bamboo door of their cell and proceeds to go 
	outside.

CUT TO: EXT - CAVE - MORNING

	Ramoo is still sitting on a large rock as we see Mrs. 
	Howell approach from behind him. Ramoo notices Mrs. 
	Howell and grabs his spear and thrusts it in her 
	direction making her stop.

				RAMOO
			Stop! Where you go!?

				MRS HOWELL
			Put that silly thing away. I'm sure your 
			mother would never approve of such conduct!

				RAMOO
			No have mother!

				MRS HOWELL
			Awe that's sad. But you must remember you're 
			an uninvited guest on this island, and you do 
			have certain social obligations.

				RAMOO
			No have ogligations!

	Ramoo is still holding the spear at Mrs. Howell. The 
	rest of the castaways are watching at a safe distance.  
	Mr. Howell is getting increasingly nervous as he 
	watches his wife confront Ramoo.

				MRS HOWELL
			Didn't anyone ever tell you that it's rude to 
			point!

				MR HOWELL
			Lovey! Lovey! That man is a barbarian!

				MRS HOWELL
			Oh fiddle sticks! Any one can learn good 
			manners.

	Ramoo makes more menacing gestures with his spear.

				RAMOO
			Do not make Ramoo stab you!

				MR HOWELL
			Lovey don't! Please!

				MRS HOWELL
			If you ever want to get into high society, 
			you'll have to read a book on etiquette!


	With that said, Mrs. Howell pushes the spear out of the 
	way and starts walking past Ramoo.  Ramoo takes offense 
	and raises his spear. Just as he's about to throw the 
	spear, the Skipper and the others run out of the cave. 
	The skipper puts a wrestling hole on Ramoo's spear 
	throwing arm and subdues him.

				SKIPPER
			Quick Professor a rope! I think we've been 
			liberated!

FLIP TO: EXT - JUNGLE - DAY

	Gilligan is still running through the jungle after 
	evading Kincaid all night.  He is obviously exhausted 
	and out of breath. He decides to sit down on a large 
	rock. As he rests, the sound of an Owl is heard coming 
	from a nearby tree. Hoo, hoo...

				GILLIGAN
			The question isn't who. I know who's gonna 
			get it! The question is when where and how!

CUT TO: KINCAID - SAME JUNGLE AREA

	Kincaid has just seen Gilligan sitting on the rock. He 
	raises his rife and takes aim through his scope. As he 
	starts to pull the trigger…

CUT to: PREVIOUS SHOT

				GILLIGAN
			Oh skipper anybody!

	As Gilligan in desperation leans forward, a shot rings 
	out and hits the rock behind Gilligan leaving a shower 
	of splinters of rock. Gilligan, now realizes he's been 
	shot at, takes off at full speed into the jungle.  
	Kincaid greatly disappointed takes off after Gilligan. 
	The Skipper and the Professor are coming into a 
	clearing and see Gilligan running for his life. They 
	see that Kincaid has a good bead on Gilligan. Kincaid 
	raises his rifle, takes aim and…

				SKIPPER
			Kincaid! NO!

	Kincaid fires.  We see Gilligan appear to get hit and 
	fall or trip into a large trough marked "fresh water". 
	We cut back to Kincaid who is obviously pleased with 
	himself and starts over to the trough. The skipper and 
	the professor arrive at the trough at the same time 
	Kincaid does. 

				KINCAID
			Now to get my trophy!

	Kincaid reaches into the trough to pull Gilligan out, 
	but Gilligan is not dead. He grabs Kincaid's arm and 
	pulls himself out of the trough at the same time 
	Kincaid is pulled into the trough.  Gilligan gets out 
	of the trough and runs full speed from the clearing.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan! Little buddy! 

				PROFESSOR
			Gilligan!

				SKIPPER
			Keep going! Run!

				PROFESSOR
			Run Gilligan!
		
				SKIPPER
			Keep Going!

				PROFESSOR
			Run!

	Kincaid has pulled himself up from the trough and is 
	now aiming at the fleeing Gilligan, all the while the 
	Skipper and the Professor are encouraging him to run. 
	Kincaid aims, and pulls the trigger. Instead of a ear 
	splitting blast, just a jet of water shoots from the 
	barrel.

FADE TO: EXT - CAVE - DAY

	Ramoo is seen tied up with rope as Kincaid unties him.

				RAMOO
			I'm sorry Ramoo not scare woman.

				KINCAID
			You natives are too tender hearted.

				RAMOO
			Yeah it's to bad.

	Kincaid has finished untying Ramoo.

				KINCAID
			Come on we'll pick up his trail again!

FLIP TO: EXT - CLEARING - DAY

	The Skipper and Professor are in a clearing along with 
	an odd tree. The professor is sweeping away foot prints 
	that lead to the tree. 

				PROFESSOR
			I'll brush the foot prints away from 
			Gilligan's roots.

				SKIPPER
			Good idea.

				PROFESSOR
			And I'll try to keep Kincaid away from this 
			area. (pause)
			How you doing in there Gilligan?

				GILLIGAN
			I'm so nervous my knot holes are shaking!

				SKIPPER
			       (QUIETLY)
			Little buddy we're gonna take off now.

	The professor see someone coming up the path towards 
	the clearing.

				PROFESSOR
				(QUIETLY)
			Shhhhh…I think I hear somebody coming!

				SKIPPER
				(QUIETLY)
			Quiet Gilligan!

				GILLIGAN
			Huh!

	The Skipper and Professor step away from the tree 
	Gilligan is hiding in.  Kincaid and Ramoo walk into the 
	clearing where he meets the skipper and professor.

				SKIPPER
			Mr. Kincaid. (laughs)

				KINCAID
			Well gentlemen, your friends trail ends right 
			here and I have a feeling he's somewhere near 
			by.

				SKIPPER
				(innocently)
			Where?

				KINCAID
			Ramoo, did you thoroughly clean my rifle?

				RAMOO
			Ramoo think so.

				KINCAID
			You think so huh?  Well maybe we better test 
			it. Draw me a target

	Ramoo has a piece of chalk and walks over to the tree 
	that Gilligan is hiding in. He draws a poor bullseye on 
	the tree.

				PROFESSOR
			Your…your…your…your not going to shoot that 
			tree are you!?

				KINCAID
			Why not!

				SKIPPER
			Well because eb…eb.eb trees are out of 
			season!  Besides, what kind of target is a 
			tree?

				PROFESSOR
			Yes, I…I mean especially that one! Why that's 
			a that's a Nakapoorasaka! According to the 
			local natives it's a sacred tree, why if you 
			even scratch it, it'll bring you twenty-five 
			years of bad luck!

				SKIPPER
			That's exactly right, honestly, it's worse 
			luck than breaking three mirrors!

				KINCAID
			That's nonsense now get out of my way!


	Kincaid readies his rifle and starts to take aim 
	through the scope. Gilligan inside the tree makes the 
	tree revolve so that the bullseye is now no longer 
	visible. Kincaid looks through the scope and doesn't 
	see the bullseye.

				KINCAID
			Can't you do anything right, I told you to 
			draw me a target!

				RAMOO
			Ramoo draw target! I do again.

				KINCAID
			Ah no that's alright.  I'll just put a bullet 
			right in the center of that tree.

				SKIPPER
			Oop…oop Mr. Kincaid! Why waste your time 
			shooting a tree? Why don't you shoot 
			Gilligan! 

				KINCAID
			Shoot Gilligan stead of a tree.

				PROFESSOR
			Yes that's…that's…that's one of our favorite 
			trees!

				KINCAID
			Ramoo, I think the tension is getting to be 
			too much for them. 

				RAMOO
			Yes.

	Once again Kincaid takes aim, this time he see the tree 
	moving back and forth, around and around. He takes a 
	moment to rub his eyes to clear the illusion.

				KINCAID
			My malaria must be coming back.

	He looks up to see the tree moving and then realizes…

				KINCAID
			It's Gilligan!
	
	He raises his rifle and is getting ready to shoot. The 
	skipper can take no more. He pushes the rifle away to 
	make Kincaid loose his aim.



				SKIPPER
			Ep…ep…ep you shoot that gun it'll be murder!

	Kincaid pulls the rifle away from the skipper and 
	resumes his aim. Just as Kincaid starts to squeeze the 
	trigger, his alarm on his watch goes off 
	ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. The Skipper hears the alarm and pushes 
	the rifle out of the way again.

				SKIPPER
			The alarm! It's twenty-four hours!

				PROFESSOR
			Gilligan is saved!

	Kincaid lowers his rifle and looks disappointed.

				KINCAID
			Well nobody can say that Jonathan Kincaid 
			doesn't keep his word. Come on Ramoo let's go 
			home.

				SKIPPER
			Wa…wa.no wait a minute Mr. Kincaid, what 
			about us!? You said you were going to radio 
			for help!

				KINCAID
			   (SADISTIC LAUGH)
			Are you kidding!? If the authorities found 
			out I was hunting a human being they'd put me 
			in jail!

				SKIPPER
			Bu…We won't tell anyone!

				KINCAID
			Sorry chaps can't take that chance.

	With that said, Kincaid and Ramoo turn and start to 
	walk off. Ramoo pokes the skipper with his spear as 
	he's about to leave. The Skipper, the Professor and 
	Gilligan (still in the tree) have been left behind.

				PROFESSOR
			Well, the main thing is that Gilligan is 
			still alive!

				SKIPPER
			Yes, my little buddy!

	The Skipper and the professor walk back to the tree 
	Gilligan is hiding in.

				SKIPPER
			Gilligan little buddy, you can calm down now!
			The alarm went off, the twenty-four hours is 
			over!

				GILLIGAN
			Really!?

				SKIPPER
			Really little buddy! You don't know how close 
			you came to getting killed!

				GILLIGAN
			Really!!

	The skipper holds up his hand and puts his thumb and 
	index figures together with only a small space between.

				SKIPPER
			That close!

	Gilligan then sticks his hand out through the viewing 
	slot and makes the same gesture.

				GILLIGAN
			That close!?

				SKIPPER
			That's right!

	Gilligan pulls his hand back into the tree and with the 
	sound of a tree falling, the tree topples over as 
	Gilligan faints inside. And as the tree falls the 
	skipper yells…

				SKIPPER
			Timber!

	The tree falls on the skippers foot making him yelp 
	with pain.

								FADE OUT
