Quotes 

• Gilligan : [Inside the Professor's hut]  Could I get back the saw and the chisel that you borrowed?

  Professor Roy Hinkley : Oh yeah. I loaned the chisel to the girls, but the saw's over here some place.

  [as he looks, Gilligan looks around at the hut rather impressed, then pulls out a small palm leaf no more than three inches long, and the wall it was in immediately falls down, surprising both the Professor and Gilligan] 

  Professor Roy Hinkley : Gilligan! What did you do to that wall?

  Gilligan : Oh I'm sorry, Professor. All I did was pull out this one little palm leaf, and the whole thing fell down.

  Professor Roy Hinkley : [Disbelieving]  Oh, Come on!

  Gilligan : Honest, Professor! That's what happened!

  Professor Roy Hinkley : You can't tell me that pulling out one little palm leaf could make a whole wall fall down.

  [With that, he walks over to the opposing wall, with Gilligan in tow, and pulls about three feet of palm leaf out of the wall and shows it to him] 

  Professor Roy Hinkley : I built this place! You remember?

  [Gilligan then looks closely at the wall, and pulls out a similar short palm leaf to the one he originally pulled out, making that wall fall, and the rest of the hut to collapse as well] 

• Gilligan : [Enters The Profesor's hut]  Hiya, Professor. What are you doing?

  Professor Roy Hinkley : [Explaining]  I'm making notes for a book. It's to be a chronicle of our adventures on the island... I think it's a book people will want to buy, don't you?

  Gilligan : [Happy]  Sure, I'll buy one. I'm dying to find out what happens to us.
