Info:

VMO2, an actual unit now stationed in S. California, is painted on the sides of the chopper seen in flashbacks. The famous VMO2 cap Thomas and T. C. wear more than any other (Thomas wears his VMO2 cap more than twice as often as his Detroit Tigers cap.) will not be seen until the episode "Tropical Madness". The blue jeans, TM is often seen wearing are Seafarer Bellbottom Dungarees....these were worn by U.S. Navy enlisted personnel as work pants, they were not issue, but were approved for use. Often tied to a length of rope and thrown overboard into the ocean for hours at a time to properly season them before wearing. Actor Jeff MacKay (_Tales From The Gold Monkey_) appears as "Ski". He will take up his role as Lt. Mac Reynolds, or "Mac" in "Missing In Action". W. K. Stratton, "Ensign Healy", will appear again as a crooked cop in "Wave Goodbye". Judge Rinehold (_Fast Times At Ridgemont High_) has a small role as "Seaman Wolfe". And Robert Loggia (_Wild Palms_) who plays Felipe/LaBule will direct the episodes "Never Again...Never Again" and "Missing In Action". The number-plate of the Ferrari shows '56E-478' and will be changed to 'Robin 1' in ep. "China Doll". After Magnum's "Car-Jacking" of the Ferrari, the roof of the car should lie on the floor behind the car. Normally, the roof is stored behind the front seats' back.

This is our first Christmas with TM. The new painting in Masters' house is a Gauguin worth 2 million Marks. A group of five school girls from Vermont call Magnum to seek for their teacher they lost. Her name is Ms. Linda Booten, she is an Art teacher with a Masters Degree from Brown Univ., and is a Phi Beta Kappa. But the girls are only interested in the painting…

Info:
|
Kapiolani war memorial park/water stadium is used as a filming location again in "The Treasure of Kalaniopu'u", "Missing Melody", and "Death And Taxes". The hotel desk clerk is reading Robin Master's "Fruit of Passion". Editing error: water is present on the pool deck where Rick comes out of the pool, before he comes out of the pool. Rick is driving his red Datsun 280 SX. Jim Demarrest stars as the excessively sweaty art dealer/forger/kidnapper/thief and ultimate dupe. Best line of the ep: "She shouldn't be punished for her passion." TM's Christmas present to Higgins: The real Gauguin in a mailing tube with red ribbon. TM & TC get into only one fight.

Notice Thomas' taste for Brandy. Later in "From Moscow to Maui" we see that he keeps Scotch and Brandy in the guest house's decanters. In fact, Scotch runs second behind beer as his favorite "recreational" beverage ("Don't Say Goodbye" and "Resolutions" among others), followed closely by Brandy. Beer is his overwhelming favorite. Thomas drinks 119 bottles of beer over the course of the entire 8-year series! He also drinks a lot of milk. Richard Johnson reappears as Brigadier General Allistair Folkes in "Faith and Begorrah".

Story:

A woman kills herself with a rifle the same way like in the book of her next film. She parted from her friend David Norman who thinks, she parted because of a new lover. He believes she was murdered, so he calls Magnum.
|
|
Info:
|
In this ep. Magnum makes his first reference to writing a book on how to be a world-class private investigator. When the woman tries to kill herself, the movie script on the table has the title of the episode and was written by Donald Bellisario. The episode is dedicated to camera technician Robert VanDerKar who died in a helicopter crash during filming. The F.A.A. investigation yielded no pilot or crew error to explain the crash. And Bellisario, a huge fan of helicopters, decided to continue to use them heavily both in front of the camera and behind it. Actor Ian McShane (_The Lovejoy Mysteries_) appears again in "Black On White".

Parts of this ep. are filmed on the Makai Research Pier on the windward coast of Oahu between the Eve Anderson Estate (used for Robin's Nest) and the Sea Life Park. The pier is not used as chopper pad and headquarters for Island Hoppers until much later in the series. It is used again in "From Moscow to Maui". This is the first ep. in which Mike Post (who went to high school with Selleck) and Pete Carpenter handle the music for the series. Ian Freebairn-Smith did the music for the series premiere and then that same music was used for every episode until this one.

This is one of two episodes that were intended to be pilots for spin-off shows. Erin Gray (_Buck Rogers_) was supposed to star as Joy Doyle in her own series produced by Bellisario.

Also, note the first of two guest appearances by model/actress Jacquelyn Ray. She appears again in "Birdman of Budapest" and she is Selleck's former wife of ten years.

|
|
Info:
|
The khaki colored SEAL issue swim shorts worn by Thomas here and in many later ep's are the first of many small indicators in the series that Thomas is a graduate of that most difficult military school. By the 1990s it had become fashionable for popular media heroes who had Navy backgrounds to be former SEALs. It has almost become ubiquitous in movies and television. But in 1981 the Navy's special warfare group still was widely unheard of in the civilian world. Thomas Magnum is perhaps the first former SEAL ever portrayed in the popular media.

Story:

One night, Magnum dreams of Michelle. The next morning he sees her on a yacht in the harbor...
|
|
Info:
|
Notable prop developments: the "Magnum" belt buckle with Navy Surface Fleet badge appears for the first time, Thomas lapses back to an old mistake by once again wearing his Team Ring on the left hand, and after he fires eight rounds from his .45 it's slide does not lock back to show the pistol is empty as it should. He puts the pistol to General Hue's chest as if to shoot, but he has already fired the maximum capacity of his unaltered .45 without reloading! We get a clear look at Thomas' driver's license. His social security number is 546-10-8740 and his address is listed as 11435 18th Ave., Honolulu, HI (46816). This is not (and cannot) be the address at the estate which is out of town on the Kalanianaole Highway. We can speculate, though, that since he's been at the estate for only a year his license still shows his old address at wherever he lived in town before he was "hired" by Robin (as shown in "Dream A Little Dream"). In reality, this address was just a few doors down from MCA's Magnum, P.I. production office at 520 18th Ave. His license is shown again in "Murder 101". This ep. contains the first reference to Higgins' memoirs. And it is the first of several times the Parke Memorial Chapel on Breretania street in Honolulu's Queen Emma Square is used as a filming location. Marta DuBois (_Tales From The Gold Monkey_) begins her role as Magnum's wife which continues in "Little Girl Who" and "Limbo". Soon Tech Oh begins his role as her husband, General Nguyen Hue. He also appears in "Two Birds of A Feather" and "Kiss of the Sabre". Clyde Kusatsu appears in many episodes, including "All For One" and "This Island Isn't Big Enough". Paul Burke plays Admiral Hawkes in "Did You See the Sunrise?" and "Blood and Honor".

Higgins, T.C. and Rick have strange feelings about Magnum and they start to search for him. Higgins navigates, T.C. uses his helicopter, and Rick stays on his boat. Magnum is only some yards away from the boat, but Rick can't see him. When Magnum remembers his longest attempt of water-treading, Higgins finds him and jumps from the helicopter to the rescue. The last water-treading attempt Magnum remembered was the one on July 4th when he waited for his father to come home from Corea, but only a Navy-officer came to tell that T.S.Magnum senior died. Since that moment, Magnum celebrates July 4th alone.
