Why would the Professor reuse the tree sap as glue on the Mars satellite after it destroyed the Minnow?

Quotes
Skipper: "What are you doing back there Gilligan? When the camera goes on they won't be able to see you!"
Gilligan: "That's what I had in mind"
Skipper: "What do you mean?"
Gilligan: "Well, if I stand in front, the whole world will see me. And if the whole world sees me, that means the United States will see me. And if the United States sees me, that means my hometown will see me. And if my hometown sees me, that means my brother will see me. And if my brother sees me, he'll punch me because I'm wearing his shirt."
