This is, indeed, the episode to which I was referring, and in which my hypothetical scene would have ocurred. Your point is?

News anchor:“The signal is coming through clearly, these images are being transmitted live from the surface of Mars. Of course when we say “live” remember that the radio waves transmitting the signal Earth left Mars several minutes ago, and are only just now arriving. All right, it looks like he’s about to step out of the hatchway. In just a few moments we’ll be hearing the first words spoken from the planet Mars. There he is. Let’s listen in.”

Astronaut:“Ok, I’m going to step off the platform now.” [Steps onto the surface of Mars] “Pepsi, it’s the choice of a New Generation.”

t-k “Frasier’s mother was on Cheer’s and threatened to kill Diane herself.”

I am getting a cold, too slow now.

The procession through the jungle is solemn, and little is heard but stifled sobs and the whispered crush of grass underfoot. Six walk beneath the trees’ canopy carrying upon their shoulders a seventh, lashed to a plank. The Sailor struggles weakly against his bonds then again lies still.

There had been another Incident. Another Accident. Another Failure. A decision long overdue had been made. A vote had been taken … and now his friends were taking him down to the beach to die.

Upon reaching the lagoon, they lay the plank on the sand and step away, forming a semi-circle opening on the water. Gagged, the Sailor can do little but plead with his eyes, though none will meet his gaze. He slowly scans the circle … his friends …his Captain, the Industrialist and his wife, the Actress…and the rest.

It is a long time before anyone moves. Finally, the Scientist steps forward. The filleting knife in his hand catches the sun for an instant . He kneels by the Sailor and starts to speak in a voice raw and trembling…

“Gilligan, I…”

…but he is overcome and, dropping the knife, falls to the sand as if in veneration, weeping violently into his hands. Soon a large shadow looms over him and a beefy, calloused hand rests itself firmly on his shoulder.

“It’s all right, Roy. It should be me anyway…”

Reaching down, the Captain helps the Scientist to his feet and kneels in his place. He picks up the knife and places the blade under the Sailor’s chin.

“We’ve had quite a run, haven’t we little buddy?” He says and tries to smile. A single tear paints a copper trail through the dust and dried salt on his cheek.

It is over in an instant. A swift movement, a soft gurgle, and then just the sound of a three-hundred pound man howling his anguish to the sky.

Soon, they lift the plank from the sand and walk it down to the water. It floats slowly from sight as the Captain, in his rich baritone, sings an old seaman’s song of duty, love and death.

One by one, they walk back to their huts where they begin to pack for the inevitable rescue which, as it happens, comes the following day.

The episode of Star Trek where Spock kicks someone in the nuts, and then explains the logic behind it.

The episode of either RAW or Smackdown! where a wrestler is seen either reading Stephen Hawking or engaged in a deep philosphical conversation. It’s not that I don’t think wrestlers are smart, I just think this would be damn funny.

The “Touched by an Angel” ep in which Della Reese reveals that the oft-mentioned big man upstairs is Allah. Della, Roma Downey and Valerie Bertinelli are tortured for appearing to mortals without wearing their burqhas; and finally Roma and Valerie, as well as 70 other Angels, must serve as concubines to recently deceased terrorists.

The “Will & Grace” episode in which Will realizes “comes out” as a straight man and confesses that he loves Grace. Karen gets bawled out for being a drunken bitch and for her racist treatment of her maid, and Jack gets bawled out for being acting like such a stereotypical mincing pansy homo.

The “Friends” episode in which someone suggests they all might not be so neurotic and high-strung if they didn’t sit around at Central Perk drinking a gazilllion cups of coffee every day.

The “Lifetime Channel Movie of the Week” in which the main character has a dilemma that is not caused by a threatening, mysogynist boyfriend/husband/boss/stalker

"The “Friends” episode in which someone suggests they all might not be so neurotic and high-strung if they didn’t sit around at Central Perk drinking a gazilllion cups of coffee every day. "

Joey suggested this one time in a funny scene.
