The Scout Chapter 2

Everyone came gathering out of their huts as the cries and shouts of a plane coming filled

the island air. The Professor looked a bit incredulous.

"What makes you think so Mr. Howell?" The Professor analyzed the source of the

information.

"We heard it on the radio, A plane from Hollywood is scouting for a movie location

among the islands!"

Ginger preened breathlessly;

"A movie....... a rescue...... maybe we will be rescued soon enough to audition!"

"Sure"' Gilligan nodded innocently " They need lots of bafoons"

Ginger scowled in disgust and Mary Anne intervened;

"Gilligaaaan "

Skipper suddenly realized his position.

"Listen..... we dont have much time..... we need to build a signal flare! Men, we need to

fell some trees to make a sign...... ladies help us shape the logs into letter that say......

HOLLYWOOD

HELP

They cant possibly miss that!"

"Skippers right....... If we hurry we can have the sign burning by dark," The Proffesor

agreed.

Everyone rushed off to gather necessary tools and clothes leaving only Gilligan behind.

Skipper noticed his little buddy was missing and turned back.

"Gilligan what are you doing"

"I am trying to decide which tree to chop down skipper..... this one has coconuts on it,

and this one is too big."

"Gilligan..... isnt there something you need to chop down the tree first?"' Skipper

counsceled with exaggerated patience.

"Sure Skipper."

"And what is that little buddy?"

"I could use a glass of Mary Annes punch "

Skipper lost his cool.......

"I'll punch youuuu."

Skipper took off his hat and ran for Gilligan, who ran for the hut with Skipper trotting

behind angrily swatting with his cap.
