Trivia
- The name of the episode comes from "Goodbye Old Paint," a song by Western entertainer Tex Ritter.
- Chronologically, Dubov would have arrived on the island around 1953 about the time Jungle Boy might have arrived on the island as an infant. There is no known connection between them.
- Considering Wrongway Feldman arrived on the island during the Late Twenties to Early Thirties, he might have been aware of Dubov and Jungle Boy on the island, but this is unconfirmed.
- Since Dubov floats away on a raft made from his paintings, it's unclear why the Castaways can't do the same thing.
Quotes
Mrs. Howell: There's no doubt that it's abstract.
Mr. Howell: It's ridiculous.
Gilligan: It's scary.
Dubov: Nincompoopers, it's upside down!
Gilligan: We looked all over the island. We couldn't find a boat.
Dubov: Don't have it boat.
Professor: Then you can't get off.
Dubov: Can get off.
Gilligan: How?
Dubov: By boat.
Gilligan: You just said you didn't have a boat.
Dubov: Have transmitter. Call boat.
Mr. Howell: Yes, and the beauty of this plan is it's simplicity. Because the more simple a thing is, the more beautiful it is.
Gilligan: I must be gorgeous.
Mr. Howell: What he has painted here is, what we might say the inner woman
Gilligan: Oh yeah, I can kind of see her lungs and appendix now.
Mr. Howell: What he has is the ability to remain unencumbered.
Gilligan: What?
Mr. Howell: Unencumbered. Don't you paint unencumbered?
Gilligan: Sure, and I can draw radishes too.
Skipper: Well, you know what - what I feel like?
Gilligan: You know what you look like?
Gilligan: Yeah. Now lift up the other foot.
Skipper: Gilligan, if I lift up the other foot I'll fall on the ground.
Gilligan: Well you never know Skipper, Why don't you just try it. Just lift it up and give it a little...
Skipper: Gilligan, will you get behind that easel and paint!
Dubov: You saw painting of skinny kiddo?
Skipper: See it? I posed for it.
Dubov: You pose for that picture?
Skipper: Certainly. That was the real me. The man of the sea sailing into the wind, with my bare hands fighting the ocean.
Dubov: Dubov want to tell you something. I saw picture. You lost fight.
