Gilligan's Revenge
by Lisa McCourt Hollar
Smiling at an evanescent memory, the Professor regarded
the tulwar he’d found in his office. Scanning the campus grounds, he wondered
how they’d gotten off the island… and how they’d found the biodome.
“He’s knows we’re here.”
“Yes, I know.” Ginger turned from the window, wishing
Gilligan would stop playing that damned balalaika. She considered smashing his
head in. Mary Ann shook her head, he was a moron but therein was his intrinsic
value...
“Maybe we should have left him in the mineshaft and
brought the Skipper with us.”
“To what end? You saw what he did to the Howells.”
Ginger shuddered, remembering how they’d found the
millionaire and his wife, their bones picked clean by the fat Captain.
“It’s time.”
She liked Gilligan, but Mary Ann still strapped the coconut
bomb to him. The Professor would
never suspect him of licentious intent. He would pay for leaving them behind.

This was so much fun I didn't notice the prompt words at all!! Wonderful! :)
ReplyDeleteI think we should rename the Monday Mixer - Monday Mayhem as we all try to write the most outlandish stories including as many strange prompt words as we can.
ReplyDeleteYou won't tell Jeff my secret plan will you Lisa? hehehehehe
Great story! ;-)
Ha ha, poor old Gilligan!
ReplyDeleteHeheheh. I like this, but even this is not enough payback for the "Hamlet/Carmen" episode.
