Trivia
ADD TRIVIA- Mr. Howell offered Barkley a single $10,000 bill and later found the $10,000 bill from the radio. Bills larger than $100 were removed from circulation in 1969 by presidential order, since they allowed the easy transport of large sums of money by criminal organizations. Edit

Quotes
ADD QUOTES- Radio Announcer: Now, he must exist with nothing but the clothes on his back and without help from anyone. Would you take that dare? Think of it! $10,000! Gilligan: I'm thinking of it. It's making me sick. Skipper: Why? Because this fellow's gonna get $10,000? Gilligan: Yeah. And I'm doing it for nothin'! Edit
- Mr. Howell: Pick up two pails of fish? A Howell??? Skipper: Well, somebody took 'em. Mr. Howell: Perhaps a pail of diamonds. Mrs. Howell: Perhaps a pail of goldfish? Mr. Howell: (laughing) Gold! Lovey, you made a witty one! Edit
- Professor: Mr. Barclay's attitude is quite simple to understand. Mr. Howell: I don't understand it. Professor: Well, it's based on money. Mr. Howell: I understand. Edit
