When he describes it as the same size and consistency as a flat rock Gilligan has been using as a tray, it dawns on everyone that Gilligan has had the missing piece the whole time. In his excitement, Gilligan accidentally drops it and shatters it, but the Professor finds the fragments large enough to restore for the final clue.

However, upon making the journey, they discover their new land guarded by a huge dinosaur and Gilligan wakes from the shock. The Skipper calms him from the terrifying dream just as the Professor arrives and cancels the trip. It seems he read the hieroglyphics backward, and they actually explain how the island's original prehistoric inhabitants got there. Later that day, Gilligan carves his own tablet for future castaways; it reads, "Home Sweet Home." </p> <h2 data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Message</h2> <ul><li data-rte-spaces-before="1">"Reading is
