- Gilligan and The Skipper find a government briefcase with top-secret information in the lagoon, and when Gilligan handcuffs himself to the briefcase, he becomes afraid that the enemy will come to the island and kill him.
- While fishing in the the lagoon, Gilligan (Bob Denver) pulls in a military briefcase that incites the curiosity of the Castaways trying to look inside it. They try various stunts to take the case and peek inside, but the Professor (Russell Johnson) foils each of them. The following morning, the case has vanished, having been passed one by one covertly through the Castaways trying to hide it until Gilligan gives it back to the Professor, who pounds it in disgust only to discover it has secret military papers in it. Gilligan handcuffs himself to it to protect it, but the Skipper (Alan Hale Jr) realizes Gilligan would be killed when the men after the case find him with it. That night, Gilligan has a dream he's a secret agent, and the others are spies trying to get the briefcase, with Mr. Howell (Jim Backus) as the head of the evil organization after it and Ginger (Tina Louise) Mrs. Howell (Natalie Schafer) and Mary Ann (Dawn Wells) as the assistants. When Gilligan wakes from a start after the dream, Mr. Howell comes running and scares him, opening the case and revealing the key to the cuffs. The files, however, turn out to be from World War One, which means no one would be after them after all. Deciding to toss the briefcase back into the lagoon, Gilligan tells the Skipper and The Professor about his dream and tells them they were in it, adding that the Skipper was an impostor of his mother and the Professor was the head of the good guys and that the briefcase was rigged to explode. Upon tossing it, it really does explode, surprising them.
