Trivia
- Gilligan and the Skipper's hut has a wood door instead of their regular door made of reeds.
- It seems odd that the Castaways would ironically build their own spear gun replete with a hair trigger in order to pull off an exact creation of a murder.
- During her recreation, Mary Ann ties up her pig tails. She's also the only potential suspect still wearing the same outfit from the earlier conversation about Randolph Blake.
- Sherwood Schwartz hired actual Cincinnati broadcast reporter Al Schottelkotte to supply the voice of the reporter who updates the murder of Randolph Blake. Schottelkotte had became so popular that he had appeared as a bailiff in the "Gunsmoke" episode, "Old Man," which aired October 10, 1964.
