Gilligan's Island
The pirates discover a small island at the coordinates you specified, and you take a rowboat ashore to check it out. You discover a nice little village of about a half a dozen bamboo huts, but no one seems to be around. Then, you pick up the sound of someone whistling a tune, and follow it to find a tall sandy-haired man standing at a workbench, tinkering with some kind of bamboo-based device. "Oh! Hello," he says, noticing you. "Welcome to the island. They call me 'the Professor'."
You shake his hand and ask him what he's working on. "Oh, just a little gadget to make our lives as castaways here a little easier. If it works, I'll have transformed this bamboo and some of the larger seashells we've found into a primitive but functional espresso machine."
"That's very impressive," you say, "but wouldn't your time be better spent building a boat?"
"A boat?" He ponders the question for a moment. "...Of course! A boat! Why didn't I think of it before! I could build a boat, and finally get off this beautiful tropical island where the half-wits I'm stuck here with revere me as a god because I can get FM radio on a coconut! Boy, I sure am sick of spending every night with a beautiful red-headed starlet! That's just what I'll do -- build a boat, escape this terrible paradise, and go back to my old life as a high-school science teacher in Scranton, New Jersey!"
"...I'm detecting just a hint of sarcasm, there."
After he's done rolling his eyes, you help him gather some large rocks he needs for a natural gas-fueled pastry oven he's working on. It's a pretty good workout.
