Trivia: The Wellingtons, who sang the Gilligan's Island theme song, appeared in this episode as Gilligan's favorite group The Mosquitoes.
Question: In this episode, as the Professor is put into a trance, in the background, there seems to be a radio or television transmission tower that can be seen over the roof of the hut. It's blurry, but doesn't seem to be a standard palm tree. Is this a mistake, or set error, or my imagination?
