The Hillside Quiz Teams were on their way back from Richmond on a three hour drive, a three hour drive.  The weather started getting rough the tiny van was tossed.  If not for the courage of Mike Stebner's Crew, The Church Van would be lost... The Church Van would be lost. The Van's aground on the shore of this uncharted desert Isle...

The unexpected turn of events led Mike and his wife to declare this trip a missions trip.  They began searching the Isle for any signs of life....Tara kept having this eerie feeling that she'd been there before... something seemed familiar... then it hit her.... a coconut that is, from a nearby palm tree.... she ran around the island in an uncontrollable fit... "The sky is falling....the sky is falling" (ocassionally interrupting that statement with a noise that can only be described as a chicken sqwauking).

Meanwhile, Gwen. who has always had an irresistable crush on the Professor ever since that last Nick at Night Gilligan's Island Maranthon... found the huts and confirmed her suspicions that indeed this was Gilligan's Island.... the home of her hero... the professor.  Just as she was about to enter one of the huts, she was tackled by the force of Tara's "Sky is falling" Crusade and instead of entering the door, she went right through the bamboo wall of the professor's hut.... 

Initially the professor was annoyed... Gwen had  broken his newest invention... A version of the Ronco Slice-a-Matic made of bamboo and coconut, of course.  But imagine his excitement as he saw Gwen... He ran out of the hut... and began shouting at the top of his lungs.... "We're Rescued... We're Rescued".

Meanwhile, Nick and Chilly, were exploring in another location and came across some ancient ruins from a lost civilization.  They determined that it must have been the alamo... and immediately... they both ran off holding their ears and crying at the top of their lungs: "Remember the Alamo!!! Remember the Alamo"

Hearing all this noise, Rochelle got the rest of the Hillside Quizzers to join her in a series of annoying cheers... Eventually the crowd grew so weary of saying "Jump for Jesus" and "Leap for the Lord".. that they all joined in some silly Banana ritual that is used to annoy quizmasters at nearly every hillside-called time out.  Rochelle, however, felt led to continue her cheering and went out seeking a more favorable audience.  So she skipped off into the distance crying, "Jump for Jesus.... Jump for Jesus".

Hearing all the racket, the whole gang from Gilligan's Island ran to the lagoon to find the quizzers all involved in the banana song/ritual.  Immediately repulsed by the song, it took them a few moments to realize that this was a group of human beings...and while it sounded more like a group of natives chanting... maybe they were indeed from civilization..... could it be the moment of their rescue?

Tune in again next week for the conclusion of our twisted tale....
