"So let me get this straight." Ted said taking a sip of his drink and then looking over his notes. "Ginger had her way with all the men on the island?"

Diana grinned. "Well not exactly. I think the Skipper may be the exception but she most definitely had that Gilligan. That's for sure."

"She did?" Ted asked raising his eyebrow.

"Of course. She made a man out of that first mate." Diana said with a laugh.

"Interesting…Does Mary Ann know this?"

The blonde shrugged and picked up her glass. "How would I know? I doubt it…I don't think he would want her to know he learned all he knows from the island tramp."

"You sure that Mrs. Howell doesn't know about Ginger and her husband?"

Diana thought a moment before answering. "Well actually now that I think more about it…she must have because from what I understand she um had a fling with the Skipper."

"A fling?" Ted said writing this down.

"Probably a retaliatory thing against her husband for his affair. She most certainly had him."

"Wow." The reporter grinned. "All the goings on on that island…Juicy.."

"Told you."

"So how did she get the Professor? That's what I want to know."

The wannabee actress pursed her lips then spoke. "Sex." She replied.

"Sex? What do you mean?"

"That's why he is with her. Sex. He never got much sex before Ginger and probably enjoyed getting a piece of her. Most likely figured he wouldn't get another chance at having anyone. The man didn't have much of a romantic life before that. So he settled for Ginger. She was the only woman who paid much attention to him and he liked it. I mean you see the way she paws at him all the time, the woman never keeps her hands off him. I heard she even goes to his place of work and sexes him up in the lab. The Professor must find it thrilling."

Ted grinned as he wrote this down. "This is just too good. You sure Ginger didn't…with that Skipper."

"He tried but she for some reason wouldn't bite. I'm sure that Roy Hinkley was thrilled that she picked him for her sexual liaisons. The Skipper did attempt to try something with Ginger but she rebuked him. Maybe she thought Professor Hinkley was a more exciting conquest."

Ted nodded and scribbled in his notepad. "You sure this is all true? I mean how do you know all this?"

Diana smiled. "I have my sources." She said mysteriously.

"And they are credible?"

"If they weren't I wouldn't have told you all this now would I?" She said sweetly.

Professor's Home

Ginger stood in the kitchen fixing up something to eat for them both. After a few more rounds of lovemaking they realized they were both starving. The redhead said she would whip up something.

She found the steak in the refrigerator that the Professor had intended to cook for them before they got sidetracked. She put it in a pan to fry it up.
The Professor was behind her kissing her soft neck. Ginger grinned. "Darling…don't be distracting me….You don't want me to burn this do you…"

"I love you." He said as he then nuzzled her hair.

"Control yourself Professor Hinkley." The starlet giggled moving away from him.

"No." The academic replied kissing her again.

Ginger wriggled away from him grabbing two plates out of the cabinet. She lifted the steaks out of the pan placing them on the dinnerware. The actress carried them over to the table sitting them down. Grace was said and Ginger once more thanked the Lord for bringing Roy into her life. The two then dug into the delicious meal that was prepared.

"Excellent." The Professor said taking bite. "You know my love I think you are a better cook than Mary Ann ever was."

The actress smiled. "I don't know about that. She was pretty good on the island."

"You were better." He insisted.

Ginger shook her head. "Darling I'm already marrying you you don't have to…."

"I'm serious." He put his fork down and stood up to approach her. He then lifted her up and placed her down on his lap. "You don't get enough credit for your cooking. I still say your coconut cream pie is better than Mary Ann's. You were the first to make one. I recall when the Howells wanted to adopt Gilligan. Remember when you brought that pie out and Mary Ann said it was your famous coconut cream pie. It was the best."

Ginger placed a kiss on his lips. "I love you."

"You did a lot on that island." He continued. "I don't know what I would do without you helping me in my lab."

"Really?" Ginger said with a grin. "You mean it wasn't because you wanted to stare and fantasize about what you wanted to do with me?"

"My love I never stared…"

"You did too." Ginger giggled. "Don't think I didn't notice. You just wanted an excuse to be with me. Not very good at hiding it by the way. How about it Ginger is not exactly subtle."

"Alright my beautiful Ginger. I confess that I wanted a reason to be alone with you. But I still appreciate you helping me."

"I was glad to. I wanted to be alone with you too you know." She said kissing him again.

"There was one thing I didn't like." He said brushing her hair back from her face. "I did not like when you would flirt with the other men. Especially with the Skipper. I could not stand it. I know that he had a thing for you and it irritated me when you would….especially in front of me….I know he got some kind of smug satisfaction out of it. Probably was thinking he was showing me up."

"Oh darling." Ginger said cuddling close to him. "You know that I only ever loved you. I didn't want the Skipper you know that. You know when he had amnesia and he tried to make a move on me…I shot that down quick…"

"Yes you did but still it bothered me."

The starlet held him tight. "I'm sorry darling. But you know…you could have done something about it. Deep down I was hoping you would."

"I suppose none of that matters now." He said holding her tight. "We are together."

"Yes we are. Even though you tried to hide the fact you were thinking about me….36-22-36…"

"I couldn't think of anything better." He replied kissing her lips.

"You remember when Gilligan said I was thinking of Rock Hudson and Gregory Peck?"

"Yes I do. I was disappointed. I had hoped your mind was on me."

The starlet smiled at him. "It was on you. I was trying to decide who you reminded me more of…Rock Hudson or Gregory Peck.."

"Is that so?" He replied intrigued.

"It is." She said her finger unbuttoning his shirt.

"What about dinner?" He said gazing at her.

"I'm in the mood for dessert." She said bringing her mouth to his.

Restaurant

"Anything else you can tell me?" Ted asked.

"Let's see." Diana said stirring her drink with a straw. "Mary Ann had a thing for the Professor."

"She did?"

"Yeah but she couldn't get at him. He was too infatuated with getting a go at Ginger to bother with the farm girl. I mean let's face it..she didn't have anything to really offer him.
You know she wanted him to be her "first" but she had to settle for Gilligan doing the "honors". She resented Ginger for it but I suppose she figured that the sailor man would have to do. He was her only other option so she went with him."

Ted shook his head with a smile. "Wow….this is golden! Just golden! You sure that the Professor never…'

Diana shook her head. "No. I think it boosted his ego that the farm girl was interested but he figured he hit the sex jackpot with the redhead. The twit couldn't compete with a movie star. How could she?"

"You have a point." The reporter said. "Why go for a plain jane like Mary Ann when a hot piece of Ginger was available for the taking."

The blonde nodded. "That's how he saw it. So…what do you think? Is this a story or what?"

"It is but…"

"But what?" Diana said. "What's the problem?"

"Before I submit this to my editor I need to have actual proof. You have any of proof of this? We can't go to print without some kind of…"

"Oh please…people don't care about facts…they like the gossip…It's not about you proving it true, it's about them proving it not true. And all they can do is deny it. People would think they would be protesting too much and think there was something to it. Bottom line is that it would sell. And sell big."

"Still…I would like to have something to validate all this." Ted said. "You dig that up and this story can go to print. Here is my card." He handed her his business card. "Call me."

Ted got up from the table with his notepad. Diana stared at the card. Come up with proof? How could she do that? There had to be someway of doing this but how? How was she going to back up her accusations? She needed this to go to print. Ginger's reputation had to be destroyed. If she played her cards right…she could get the bitch kicked off that new movie. The studio would be nervous about the scandal surrounding Ginger and decide they did not want the negative publicity and then…so long Ms Grant!

And hello Ms. Hart! First thing was first. She had to get Ted to print that story.
Quickly she got up from the table and headed outside. She spotted him about to get into his black Cadillac and hurried over to him.

"Hey there." She smiled.

"Diana." He said. "You got something for me?"

"Oh I have something for you alright…" She said moving closer. "I have something that I know you will want…" She breathed into his ear.

He gulped. "Um…"

"Why don't we head back to you place and I'll show you…" She gently kissed his ear.

Nodding, Ted opened the passenger side of the car and gestured for her to get in.
Diana grinned and stepped in the car giving him a flash of her thigh.

He shut the door and headed over to the drivers side. He slid in the car and started it up.
Ted took a quick glance over at his blond companion and drove off.

Professor's House

The Professor managed to pry Ginger away long enough for them to finish their dinner.
The dishes were then cleaned up and put away.

The pair was in the living room watching one of Ginger's favorite movies, Roman Holiday. She stated Gregory Peck was a dream much to the displeasure of the Professor. He then remarked that Audrey Hepburn was quite a stunning woman hoping it would get Ginger's goat but she either didn't care or was not paying attention.

The academic decided then to overlook Ginger's admiration for Mr. Gregory Peck. What did he care if she thought he was handsome? She happened to believe he Roy Hinkley was handsome and she was marrying him. Not Mr. Peck. She was all his. The only one who was ever going to hold her in their arms was him. He looked down at her as she laid on the couch with her head on his lap. He was lucky. Very lucky.

He had the love of the beautiful Ginger Grant. One thing he could not stand though was the nasty gossip and rumors that had swirled around her. Having people say horrible things about the woman he loved was not easy to deal with. It knew it bothered her no matter how much she tried to brush it off. People badmouthing you and saying horrible things was not something that anyone could "get used to." The scholar let her know no matter what that he would be there for her always. Nothing could ever drag him away.

Ted's place

"Well…" Diana said laying back on the bed smoking a cigarette. "You going to print the story?"

"Of course." Ted replied taking a puff of his own cigarette. "I'll write it up and give it to my editor. He'll have to accept it. You are right. Facts don't matter. What matters is that it will sell and sell big. People will believe it no matter what. It's genius."

Diana smiled saying nothing. It was genius. And she couldn't wait for the fall out!
