Trivia
- When Gilligan activates his hot water system, he strains as if it doesn't move very hard, but then he lets go of the lever, and it just falls limply to the ground.
- Mr. Howell tries turning his steamer trunk into a bath tub, which would have surely ruined the steamer trunk.
- In May 1995, the TV Series Roseanne had a homage episode to "Gilligan's Island" where the cast played the Castaways. One of the series references they made was to the volcano from this episode (even using the footage of the volcano) and to Gilligan becoming a radio from Hi-Fi Gilligan. The cast of "Gilligan's Island" also reunited to play the "Roseanne" characters.
