However, his worries are dispelled as the radio reports the phony Howell has fallen overboard from a boat while sailing and is reported lost. A search is on the way for the man still believed to be Thurston Howell III, and by the following day, the impostor somehow manages swim ashore on to the island. Wandering the island, he is shocked to discover the real Thurston Howell sitting in his chair. Knocking him up side the head with a coconut, he renders the real Mr. Howell unconscious and drags him into the jungle, changing clothes with him in an attempt to fool the other castaways. Eventually, the real Mr. Howell regains consciousness in the imposter's wet clothes and heads back to his chair, discovering the impostor and calling out to the other Castaways.

The impostor, however, rebuffs all his responses with "Howell-like" responses and a similar mole to the real Mr. Howell on his elbow. Fortunately, the Professor shows up with the radio with the latest update on the impostor, who has been proven to be a fake when earlier signatures of the real Mr. Howell are compared. His ruse discovered, the phony Mr. Howell slips away to the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22lagoon%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22The%20Lagoon%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BThe%20Lagoon%7Clagoon%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="200544-14504080985f609f8167786" href="/wiki/The_Lagoon" title="The Lagoon">lagoon</a> with the Castaways running after him. As he swims away from the island, the Castaways stop chasing him at the edge of the water. The Skipper tells Mr. Howell that he won't be able to spend anymore of his money, but Howell disagrees as the imposter is wearing his clothes with his money and credit cards in the back pocket, so he dives into the lagoon once more to get them back. A few days later, news comes over the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22radio%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22The%20Radio%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BThe%20Radio%7Cradio%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="200544-14504080985f609f8167786" href="/wiki/The_Radio" title="The Radio">radio</a> that the imposter has been picked up by a fishing boat and apprehended. Meanwhile, Gilligan wonders if the fake mole on the imposter could have been painted on and tries checking Mr. Howell who shoos him off. However, that just spurs suspicion in Mrs. Howell who tries checking her arm herself. </p> <h2 data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Credits</h2> <p data-rte-fromparser="true">Main Cast </p> <ul><li><a
