Mad scientist Boris Balinkoff returns to the island with a plan to use mind control rings to turn the castaways into his own army of hypnotized robots, with the goal of using them to rob the gold depository at Fort Knox. Although Gilligan is his primary test subject, the ring gets passed around to Mrs. Howell, The Skipper, and Ginger as well. Convinced that his rings can work on anyone, Boris has the entranced Gilligan give everyone a ring and orders them to stage a mock robbery of Fort Knox.

Ginger was sitting in her hut, examining the ring that Gilligan had given to her

Ginger: Oh my, this is certainly odd. Although, it is very pretty too. I wonder where on the island Gilligan found these things. She says to herself as she continued checking out the ring

Ginger then noticed that the top of the ring could turn to the right

Ginger: Hm? What's this-?! Ginger turns the ring all the way to the right and activates its hypnotic control I hear and I obey. She says as she stands up and leaves her hut, heading to the cave where Boris was currently residing in
