There was a gag in "Airplane II" that nodded to Lloyd's "Sea Hunt" days. I can't remember if it was in the theatrical cut or if it was a "deleted scene" used to pad out the network-TV airings, but when they re-introduce his character "McCroskey" he's in a mental hospital. Two nurses are looking at him thrashing around under the covers of his bed and one asks, "Is he dangerous?" and the other sez "No, he just thinks he's Lloyd Bridges." McCroskey then pops out from under the covers with a scuba mask on and yells "LOOKS LIKE I PICKED THE WRONG TIME TO GET SENILE!"
"If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"
