1
00:00:00,157 --> 00:00:02,489
I've been saving myself
for the right man.
2
00:00:08,370 --> 00:00:10,664
- He's guarding a horse!
- A horse?
3
00:00:10,843 --> 00:00:12,749
If anybody killed him, I just
couldn't stand it.
4
00:00:12,958 --> 00:00:14,126
I'm scared to death.
5
00:00:14,334 --> 00:00:17,254
Get on your horse
and ride like the champion you are.
6
00:00:17,437 --> 00:00:19,673
I called the society editor
at the newspaper
7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,176
to find out precisely what to wear.
8
00:00:22,342 --> 00:00:24,553
Have a cigar.
Don't burn the barn down.
9
00:00:25,971 --> 00:00:27,681
- What happened?
- He got Adelaide.
10
00:01:38,502 --> 00:01:40,879
Every have one of
those perfect afternoons?
11
00:01:41,004 --> 00:01:44,174
The sun's not too hot.
There's just enough breeze.
12
00:01:44,424 --> 00:01:46,593
You're hitting the ball straight down.
13
00:01:47,928 --> 00:01:49,721
But there must be
something wrong with me,
14
00:01:49,972 --> 00:01:51,807
because it's always that perfect moment
15
00:01:51,890 --> 00:01:54,768
when a little voice tells me
disaster's about to strike.
16
00:01:57,771 --> 00:02:01,108
Magnum, a word with you, please.
17
00:02:01,191 --> 00:02:03,527
Higgins, it is game point.
18
00:02:03,690 --> 00:02:04,923
Has it occurred to you
19
00:02:05,087 --> 00:02:06,947
just how embarrassing it
would be for Robin Masters
20
00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:08,865
if you should somehow
win the club championship?
21
00:02:08,949 --> 00:02:09,950
What?
22
00:02:10,117 --> 00:02:12,077
Not only are you
Robin's guest at the club,
23
00:02:12,286 --> 00:02:14,663
but your partner is a guest too.
24
00:02:14,830 --> 00:02:16,999
A guest of a guest, as it were.
25
00:02:17,124 --> 00:02:18,875
Higgins, are you asking
me to throw the match?
26
00:02:19,098 --> 00:02:20,210
Of course not.
27
00:02:20,335 --> 00:02:23,547
I'm only asking you to consider
how it will look if two guests win
28
00:02:23,672 --> 00:02:26,758
and then go on to represent the club
for the island championship.
29
00:02:28,302 --> 00:02:30,387
Resume play.
30
00:02:30,804 --> 00:02:33,223
Embarrassing?
31
00:02:37,060 --> 00:02:38,937
Out.
32
00:02:39,187 --> 00:02:41,857
My only problem was
the little voice didn't tell me
33
00:02:41,940 --> 00:02:44,234
the disaster had dark brown hair,
34
00:02:44,401 --> 00:02:46,945
wore big glasses
and called herself--
35
00:02:47,029 --> 00:02:50,407
Adelaide Malone.
You're Thomas Magnum?
36
00:02:51,158 --> 00:02:54,328
Yes, ma'am.
At your service.
37
00:02:54,494 --> 00:02:57,080
I'm sorry. These aren't my
working clothes. Thanks, T.C.
38
00:02:57,205 --> 00:03:01,209
No. No, i-it's not that. It's just
that I was expecting something--
39
00:03:01,335 --> 00:03:03,295
I mean,
someone a little different.
40
00:03:03,420 --> 00:03:04,588
Most people are.
41
00:03:04,963 --> 00:03:06,381
Did you wanna hire me?
42
00:03:06,798 --> 00:03:09,009
Someone's trying to extract
43
00:03:09,134 --> 00:03:12,137
an enormous amount of money
under threat of violence.
44
00:03:12,304 --> 00:03:13,680
That's extortion, isn't it?
45
00:03:13,764 --> 00:03:16,058
And they're going to kill Norman
if we don't pay them,
46
00:03:16,183 --> 00:03:18,143
but we don't have the money,
at least not yet,
47
00:03:18,268 --> 00:03:20,687
even if we were going
to give it to them.
48
00:03:21,396 --> 00:03:24,191
This is an important
and confidential matter.
49
00:03:24,316 --> 00:03:26,860
Do you think we should be
discussing business in front of--
50
00:03:26,985 --> 00:03:29,446
Miss Malone, these men
are my associates.
51
00:03:29,571 --> 00:03:31,198
They assist me on my bigger cases.
52
00:03:32,032 --> 00:03:34,576
Then we should discuss business first.
53
00:03:34,701 --> 00:03:37,537
I didn't appreciate that you
were such a large operation,
54
00:03:37,704 --> 00:03:40,082
and I only have $350 for your fee.
55
00:03:40,248 --> 00:03:42,626
I think you're right.
We should discuss this on our own.
56
00:03:42,751 --> 00:03:45,253
Your add in the Yellow Pages
said "reasonable rates,"
57
00:03:45,337 --> 00:03:47,339
but it didn't mention anything
about a staff.
58
00:03:47,464 --> 00:03:50,133
Wait. You actually found
Magnum through the Yellow Pages?
59
00:03:50,258 --> 00:03:51,510
You gotta be kidding.
60
00:03:51,718 --> 00:03:54,012
Your fingers do the walking.
61
00:03:54,137 --> 00:03:57,516
Well, all of the big agencies were
too expensive, and the small ones--
62
00:03:57,641 --> 00:04:00,185
- "Big ag--'"
- Didn't seem interested.
63
00:04:00,394 --> 00:04:02,521
At least, I didn't think
they were sincerely interested.
64
00:04:02,646 --> 00:04:05,107
But when I mentioned your name
to my uncle, Charles Cathcart,
65
00:04:05,232 --> 00:04:07,401
- his reaction was--
- Charlie Cathcart?
66
00:04:07,693 --> 00:04:09,653
Captain Cathcart, the Navy surgeon?
67
00:04:09,945 --> 00:04:12,364
He's retired now.
Did you know him?
68
00:04:13,198 --> 00:04:15,200
Well, I'll never forget him.
69
00:04:16,284 --> 00:04:20,414
Captain Charles Cathcart
was a wild man, even for 'Nam.
70
00:04:20,580 --> 00:04:23,959
He was famous for his temper
and his skill as a surgeon.
71
00:04:24,042 --> 00:04:27,379
I didn't like the first part,
but the second had saved my life.
72
00:04:27,504 --> 00:04:30,424
Last I'd heard,
his hospital had been hit by sappers,
73
00:04:30,632 --> 00:04:32,050
and he'd been shipped home.
74
00:04:32,175 --> 00:04:34,594
It was hard to believe
his niece was Miss Malone.
75
00:04:34,678 --> 00:04:35,971
Call me Adelaide.
76
00:04:36,096 --> 00:04:38,890
"Miss Malone" sounds like
a spinster, and I'm only 32,
77
00:04:39,015 --> 00:04:41,017
which is an old maid
only if you're in Iowa,
78
00:04:41,143 --> 00:04:43,061
which is one reason I left.
79
00:04:43,228 --> 00:04:45,939
- Does Norman live at the ranch?
- Yes.
80
00:04:46,148 --> 00:04:49,901
Uncle Charles bought the acreage on
the Big Island 20 years ago to retire on.
81
00:04:50,068 --> 00:04:54,489
What'd the police say about
someone threatening to kill-- Norman?
82
00:04:55,574 --> 00:04:58,535
Uh, you did call 5-O,
didn't you?
83
00:04:58,660 --> 00:05:00,746
Oh, that was the first thing I did.
84
00:05:00,871 --> 00:05:04,583
No disrespect, Mr. Magnum, but the
police do work for free for the taxpayers,
85
00:05:04,708 --> 00:05:07,043
and I've always paid my taxes
all my life.
86
00:05:07,335 --> 00:05:09,880
So when the first phone call
came in, I naturally--
87
00:05:10,005 --> 00:05:12,007
The first phone call?
How many have you gotten?
88
00:05:12,132 --> 00:05:15,093
Three, not counting the heavy
breather who wouldn't say anything.
89
00:05:18,221 --> 00:05:20,807
But since I was
the only one who talked to them,
90
00:05:20,932 --> 00:05:23,727
and there was no evidence,
the police said they couldn't help me,
91
00:05:23,872 --> 00:05:26,021
which is when I decided
to hire a private investigator,
92
00:05:26,146 --> 00:05:27,898
in spite of everything my uncle said.
93
00:05:28,106 --> 00:05:30,442
You may be asking
why I wasn't suspicious.
94
00:05:30,567 --> 00:05:33,028
Tell me the truth.
Would you be suspicious
95
00:05:33,111 --> 00:05:35,405
of a 32-year-old girl from Iowa
96
00:05:35,489 --> 00:05:38,033
who wore sensible shoes
and glasses
97
00:05:38,158 --> 00:05:40,535
and had a smile like Adelaide's?
98
00:05:51,046 --> 00:05:54,508
Uncle Charles,
this is Mr. Magnum.
99
00:05:55,258 --> 00:05:57,260
Good to see you again, sir.
100
00:05:57,969 --> 00:06:00,388
Well, Magnum,
101
00:06:01,056 --> 00:06:03,225
I didn't think you'd remember me.
102
00:06:03,475 --> 00:06:05,977
'Nam's a long time ago
for most people.
103
00:06:06,102 --> 00:06:08,605
Well, I have good
reason to remember, sir,
104
00:06:08,730 --> 00:06:10,482
and be grateful.
Thank you again.
105
00:06:10,649 --> 00:06:13,777
Most people would forget that
soon enough too.
106
00:06:15,445 --> 00:06:18,198
Well, Adelaide told me about
the threats against Norman.
107
00:06:18,281 --> 00:06:19,491
I hope I can be of help.
108
00:06:19,616 --> 00:06:21,618
I hate to disappoint you,
but quite frankly,
109
00:06:21,743 --> 00:06:24,037
I can handle the situation myself.
110
00:06:29,876 --> 00:06:32,087
You seem to have
some problem, sir.
111
00:06:32,212 --> 00:06:34,548
- I don't know what it is, but--
- Then I'll tell you.
112
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:37,509
You were a damn fine officer.
113
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:41,638
You had the makings
of a brilliant career. Brilliant.
114
00:06:41,847 --> 00:06:44,766
You threw it away
to be a private eye.
115
00:06:45,016 --> 00:06:49,563
Investigator. And I didn't
throw anything away. I resigned.
116
00:06:49,710 --> 00:06:52,649
I'll always be grateful for those years,
but it's not my life now.
117
00:06:52,858 --> 00:06:55,569
But it's mine. Mine!
118
00:06:56,444 --> 00:06:59,906
I'd give anything... to be back.
119
00:07:00,699 --> 00:07:05,453
So you understand, when I see
somebody who quit and walked away,
120
00:07:06,329 --> 00:07:09,165
it makes me... angry.
121
00:07:16,298 --> 00:07:18,216
I apologize for my uncle.
122
00:07:19,092 --> 00:07:22,220
One thing sure hasn't changed.
That's his temper.
123
00:07:22,846 --> 00:07:25,932
- Would you like to meet Norman?
- Not if he's like your uncle.
124
00:07:26,057 --> 00:07:29,644
- Where is he? Inside?
- No, not exactly.
125
00:07:30,353 --> 00:07:32,147
I know what you're thinking.
126
00:07:32,272 --> 00:07:34,149
I should've been suspicious.
127
00:07:34,441 --> 00:07:37,694
But I was too teed off
at Captain Cathcart.
128
00:07:37,903 --> 00:07:41,364
He'd hit a real sore spot,
and I wasn't thinking straight.
129
00:07:41,823 --> 00:07:44,784
For a private investigator,
that's a terrible mistake.
130
00:07:46,912 --> 00:07:48,663
Norman lives in the stable?
131
00:07:50,123 --> 00:07:52,334
Norman's your trainer.
132
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,755
Norman's a jockey?
133
00:08:09,225 --> 00:08:11,186
- Norman's a horse.
- Not just a horse.
134
00:08:11,394 --> 00:08:14,356
- He's a grand prix jumper.
- You lied to me.
135
00:08:15,565 --> 00:08:17,233
I did not.
136
00:08:18,276 --> 00:08:20,862
Well, you sure didn't
tell me the truth.
137
00:08:21,112 --> 00:08:24,783
Well, would you have come
out here if I did?
138
00:08:26,493 --> 00:08:28,203
None of the others would.
139
00:08:32,707 --> 00:08:35,669
Won't you just listen?
You don't understand.
140
00:08:35,794 --> 00:08:38,713
What I do understand is why
your uncle's so teed off at me.
141
00:08:38,838 --> 00:08:41,091
And he's right.
I didn't resign from the Navy
142
00:08:41,216 --> 00:08:43,218
to do guard duty on a horse.
143
00:08:43,343 --> 00:08:45,220
My uncle's too proud to admit it,
144
00:08:45,345 --> 00:08:48,098
but Norman represents
every nickel we have.
145
00:08:48,223 --> 00:08:51,059
Higgins put you up to this, didn't he,
to keep me out of the volleyball finals?
146
00:08:51,142 --> 00:08:52,185
No.
147
00:08:52,477 --> 00:08:53,728
After the horse show,
148
00:08:53,853 --> 00:08:55,730
provided Norman wins,
and I know he will,
149
00:08:55,814 --> 00:08:58,108
because he's done well on
the mainland circuit all season,
150
00:08:58,233 --> 00:09:01,027
we're gonna sell him
for $250,000.
151
00:09:01,152 --> 00:09:03,071
But it's not the money.
152
00:09:03,321 --> 00:09:05,323
Norman's wonderful and intelligent.
153
00:09:05,448 --> 00:09:08,201
If anybody killed him,
I just couldn't stand it.
154
00:09:09,035 --> 00:09:11,788
If you leave now,
I don't know what I'll do.
155
00:09:11,997 --> 00:09:14,624
But if you are gonna leave,
then hurry up,
156
00:09:14,874 --> 00:09:18,795
because I'm about to cry,
and I've not lost all my pride.
157
00:09:27,846 --> 00:09:29,514
I know what you're thinking.
158
00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:31,641
I was crazy not to
have driven that Jeep
159
00:09:31,683 --> 00:09:33,893
right out of there
when I had the chance.
160
00:09:34,102 --> 00:09:36,229
But T.C. had flown back to Oahu,
161
00:09:36,438 --> 00:09:38,481
and I couldn't have gotten a boat
or a commercial flight back
162
00:09:38,557 --> 00:09:39,933
until the next morning.
163
00:09:40,025 --> 00:09:42,318
Besides, you wouldn't
walk out on a girl
164
00:09:42,402 --> 00:09:44,779
with sensible shoes
and a smile like that.
165
00:09:44,863 --> 00:09:46,031
Of course you wouldn't.
166
00:09:46,114 --> 00:09:47,365
- Hi.
- Hi.
167
00:09:47,449 --> 00:09:49,200
I brought sleeping
bags and pillows.
168
00:09:49,284 --> 00:09:51,202
You do use a pillow, don't you?
169
00:09:51,334 --> 00:09:53,128
I thought you looked
like the pillow type.
170
00:09:53,204 --> 00:09:54,873
Not that I'm saying I've had
a lot of experience.
171
00:09:54,956 --> 00:09:56,041
Adelaide--
172
00:09:56,124 --> 00:09:58,960
Adelaide, are you going to spend
the night out here with me tonight?
173
00:09:59,544 --> 00:10:03,423
No. Well, uh, yes. Um-- I--
174
00:10:03,631 --> 00:10:06,176
I sleep out here often...
on this cot.
175
00:10:06,301 --> 00:10:10,013
I thought you could sleep on--on
the hay bales over there.
176
00:10:10,847 --> 00:10:14,684
I just-- I couldn't possibly
sleep inside in a warm bed
177
00:10:14,809 --> 00:10:17,520
with you out here ready
to risk your life for Norman.
178
00:10:17,604 --> 00:10:20,440
Well, I don't think
I'm doing that exactly.
179
00:10:21,024 --> 00:10:23,485
What I mean is, I don't think
Norman's in any real danger.
180
00:10:25,695 --> 00:10:27,739
You don't believe I got
those phone calls.
181
00:10:27,822 --> 00:10:29,699
The police didn't take me
seriously either.
182
00:10:29,783 --> 00:10:32,577
Yes, I do. All I'm saying is,
I don't think those guys
183
00:10:32,660 --> 00:10:35,163
will try and harm Norman
before the horse show,
184
00:10:35,246 --> 00:10:37,499
because that's when
he's most valuable.
185
00:10:38,416 --> 00:10:41,294
Oh. Yeah.
186
00:10:50,178 --> 00:10:52,388
How long you been a breeder,
Adelaide?
187
00:10:52,597 --> 00:10:54,057
Uh, just five years.
188
00:10:54,182 --> 00:10:57,143
But our success is mostly due
to Uncle Charles.
189
00:10:57,268 --> 00:11:00,271
He has all our horses
on a super nutritional program.
190
00:11:00,396 --> 00:11:03,399
Special feeds,
steroids, vitamins.
191
00:11:03,608 --> 00:11:07,153
That's why all our jumpers
are so strong and beautiful.
192
00:11:08,780 --> 00:11:11,825
- And before that, Iowa?
- Yeah.
193
00:11:12,283 --> 00:11:14,327
Let me guess what you
did back there: Home--
194
00:11:14,410 --> 00:11:16,371
Home economics.
195
00:11:17,413 --> 00:11:22,335
I used to teach eighth
grade girls for seven years.
196
00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:24,754
And boys too.
I certainly wasn't sexist.
197
00:11:24,921 --> 00:11:26,464
Oh, I'm sure you weren't.
198
00:11:26,589 --> 00:11:29,843
We just did simple cooking
and simple sewing.
199
00:11:30,135 --> 00:11:33,888
I could knock off a meat loaf
and run up a set of curtains
200
00:11:34,013 --> 00:11:35,932
faster than anybody
west of Des Moines.
201
00:11:36,057 --> 00:11:37,684
But no Mr. Right?
202
00:11:38,268 --> 00:11:39,686
You're making fun of me.
203
00:11:40,353 --> 00:11:43,106
No, I'm not.
I wouldn't do that.
204
00:11:47,110 --> 00:11:49,195
I promise you
I'll never do that, Adelaide.
205
00:11:57,620 --> 00:11:59,873
- Mr. Magnum?
- Yeah?
206
00:12:00,081 --> 00:12:04,127
I hope you don't think
I was using feminine wiles on you.
207
00:12:04,836 --> 00:12:06,379
When?
208
00:12:08,131 --> 00:12:12,051
This afternoon,
when I was asking you to stay
209
00:12:12,594 --> 00:12:14,762
and when I said I might cry--
210
00:12:14,888 --> 00:12:17,557
I mean, I'm really
a very honest person,
211
00:12:17,765 --> 00:12:20,393
and I feel terrible
that I tricked you.
212
00:12:21,227 --> 00:12:23,271
Just so you understand.
213
00:12:24,230 --> 00:12:27,192
Oh, Adelaide, I understand.
214
00:12:37,869 --> 00:12:40,079
- Adelaide?
- Yeah?
215
00:12:42,123 --> 00:12:43,666
Your glasses.
216
00:12:43,893 --> 00:12:45,793
You gonna go to bed
with your glasses on?
217
00:12:45,877 --> 00:12:47,212
No.
218
00:12:55,094 --> 00:12:58,014
- Good night.
- Good night.
219
00:13:11,406 --> 00:13:14,072
Morning came,
and I figured we were safe.
220
00:13:17,408 --> 00:13:19,619
Adelaide was still asleep, but...
221
00:13:19,744 --> 00:13:21,204
I need coffee before I
can really get moving.
222
00:13:22,705 --> 00:13:24,499
I was just gonna slip into the
kitchen when I heard something.
223
00:13:24,749 --> 00:13:29,254
At first I couldn't believe it.
They were even wearing black hats.
224
00:13:29,712 --> 00:13:32,131
And all this was before coffee.
225
00:14:11,879 --> 00:14:14,257
- What happened?
- They got Adelaide.
226
00:14:17,635 --> 00:14:19,470
I know what you're thinking.
227
00:14:19,595 --> 00:14:21,514
A classic diversion.
228
00:14:21,723 --> 00:14:24,767
I was supposed to follow them,
then they could come back for Norman.
229
00:14:24,851 --> 00:14:26,436
I know that.
230
00:14:26,519 --> 00:14:28,771
The trouble is
I didn't have a choice.
231
00:14:54,088 --> 00:14:56,507
Gonna get rid of you, lady.
232
00:15:11,105 --> 00:15:12,940
What if they got Norman?
233
00:15:13,191 --> 00:15:15,276
Could you drive faster, please?
234
00:15:19,155 --> 00:15:21,949
Norman! Norman!
235
00:15:27,872 --> 00:15:29,415
Norman.
236
00:15:29,957 --> 00:15:32,043
They've killed him!
237
00:15:32,126 --> 00:15:34,962
Norman.
They've killed him.
238
00:15:38,299 --> 00:15:40,343
Adelaide.
Adelaide, listen to me.
239
00:15:40,426 --> 00:15:42,428
They just tranquilized him.
He's not dead.
240
00:15:42,637 --> 00:15:45,515
- Adelaide--
- He's not--
241
00:15:45,807 --> 00:15:47,809
- It's all right, boy.
- He's not--
242
00:15:48,476 --> 00:15:50,269
It was just a warning.
243
00:15:50,353 --> 00:15:52,524
It's okay, boy. Come on.
244
00:15:54,315 --> 00:15:56,025
It's all right. It's all right.
245
00:15:56,109 --> 00:15:57,985
He's okay.
246
00:16:15,128 --> 00:16:18,464
I had put Norman, Adelaide,
and Cathcart on a boat for Oahu.
247
00:16:18,548 --> 00:16:20,383
They'd be safe there.
But my main worry
248
00:16:20,466 --> 00:16:22,593
was the security
at the show grounds.
249
00:16:22,677 --> 00:16:24,887
But I knew my... associates
250
00:16:25,012 --> 00:16:27,348
would be more than happy
to help me on this one.
251
00:16:27,432 --> 00:16:30,059
After all,
everybody likes horses.
252
00:16:31,519 --> 00:16:33,563
Man, I don't dig no horses.
253
00:16:33,646 --> 00:16:35,773
Look, Robin Masters
has a box for the show.
254
00:16:35,857 --> 00:16:37,567
Higgins only enjoys polo.
255
00:16:37,642 --> 00:16:39,727
So it'll only go to waste
if you guys don't go.
256
00:16:39,861 --> 00:16:41,446
- Mm-hmm.
- Thanks.
257
00:16:41,529 --> 00:16:45,366
This Norman that they're trying
to kill, is he gonna be at the show?
258
00:16:45,707 --> 00:16:48,918
Sort of. In a way, yeah,
he's gonna be there.
259
00:16:48,995 --> 00:16:52,290
- But what does that--
- Oh, man, I knew it. I knew it.
260
00:16:52,498 --> 00:16:56,669
He just wants us there to help him
keep an eye on his client.
261
00:16:57,044 --> 00:16:59,630
Hey, guys, it's not that at all.
262
00:16:59,839 --> 00:17:03,050
I'll bet you this Norman, whatever,
is gonna be sitting right next to us
263
00:17:03,134 --> 00:17:05,219
when the bullets start flying
all over the place.
264
00:17:05,386 --> 00:17:08,055
Well, if
they're out to get this Norman,
265
00:17:08,306 --> 00:17:10,224
why would he be at the show
in the first place?
266
00:17:10,391 --> 00:17:12,268
I just don't understand it.
267
00:17:12,343 --> 00:17:13,811
Unless--
268
00:17:14,896 --> 00:17:17,064
Thomas, tell me the truth.
269
00:17:17,190 --> 00:17:19,358
If you don't want the box,
just say so. I gotta go.
270
00:17:19,525 --> 00:17:21,194
I knew it! I knew it!
271
00:17:21,277 --> 00:17:24,572
The great Thomas Magnum,
private detective, is guarding a horse!
272
00:17:24,655 --> 00:17:27,492
- He's guarding a horse!
- A horse?
273
00:17:32,747 --> 00:17:37,960
It so happens that Norman is worth
a quarter of a million dollars for stud
274
00:17:38,044 --> 00:17:39,587
if he doesn't get killed.
275
00:17:39,670 --> 00:17:42,173
Oh, that's even better.
276
00:17:42,590 --> 00:17:44,759
A stud being guarded
by Magnum, the great--
277
00:17:44,842 --> 00:17:48,137
If you wanna go, let me know.
But if you don't go,
278
00:17:48,221 --> 00:17:51,140
that's the last time I try and set
up something really nice for you!
279
00:17:51,224 --> 00:17:54,727
Okay.
Back in the saddle again.
280
00:17:56,062 --> 00:17:59,857
Can you imagine you and I
at a horse show in a box?
281
00:18:00,149 --> 00:18:03,736
Man, like I said,
I don't dig no horses.
282
00:18:04,237 --> 00:18:08,115
And all those beautiful,
rich, fancy women.
283
00:18:08,407 --> 00:18:11,619
They're dumb.
They're pushy. They smell.
284
00:18:11,702 --> 00:18:13,663
Ah, the horses, I mean.
285
00:18:18,251 --> 00:18:22,296
Hey, T.C., I wonder what you wear
at something like that.
286
00:18:22,547 --> 00:18:25,258
I don't know.
287
00:18:58,207 --> 00:19:01,711
- You look like champs to me.
- Norman is for sure.
288
00:19:01,836 --> 00:19:05,006
There's only one other horse
who can touch him -- Arabella Hill.
289
00:19:09,093 --> 00:19:11,721
He's owned by the Maltby Stables
in Boston.
290
00:19:11,846 --> 00:19:14,974
He and Norman have been one and
two all over the country this season.
291
00:19:15,266 --> 00:19:16,976
We just gotta beat him tomorrow.
292
00:19:17,852 --> 00:19:20,438
Well, don't worry.
You'll do just fine.
293
00:19:20,646 --> 00:19:22,523
I'm beginning to think so too.
294
00:19:22,607 --> 00:19:24,191
- Miss Malone?
- Yeah.
295
00:19:24,275 --> 00:19:26,193
You have a phone call.
You can take it in the judges' booth.
296
00:19:26,277 --> 00:19:29,989
Oh, thank you. Thanks.
Maybe it's Uncle Charles.
297
00:19:30,072 --> 00:19:33,451
No, no. I just saw him
in the stables. It can't be.
298
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,920
- Hello.
- You wouldn't believe us,
299
00:19:45,046 --> 00:19:47,173
so we had to knock Norman out
to make our point.
300
00:19:47,381 --> 00:19:51,163
Now we want 50,000, or you and that
horse will never leave that ring alive.
301
00:19:51,257 --> 00:19:52,386
Understand?
302
00:19:53,262 --> 00:19:54,889
Stop it! just stop it!
303
00:19:54,972 --> 00:19:57,016
You're monstrous
to wanna kill a horse!
304
00:19:59,602 --> 00:20:03,272
Adelaide, next time, would
you at least give them a chance
305
00:20:03,356 --> 00:20:05,900
to tell you where to deliver
the money before you hang up?
306
00:20:05,983 --> 00:20:08,444
- We don't have 50,000... dollars.
- Shh!
307
00:20:08,653 --> 00:20:11,530
I know we don't, but it might
give me a chance to catch them.
308
00:20:11,989 --> 00:20:14,575
Oh. Okay.
309
00:20:14,659 --> 00:20:16,535
Thank you very much.
310
00:20:18,954 --> 00:20:22,291
I'm sorry. I know this isn't
as nice as my barn, but--
311
00:20:24,043 --> 00:20:26,837
This is beginning to seem
like old times.
312
00:20:27,797 --> 00:20:31,258
After Norman's sold, I probably won't
be able to sleep in a real bed again.
313
00:20:32,718 --> 00:20:34,470
Of course,
you're probably used to this --
314
00:20:34,679 --> 00:20:38,432
sleeping in exotic locations
filled with adventure and danger.
315
00:20:38,683 --> 00:20:41,143
I mean, not sleeping with women
in strange places.
316
00:20:41,394 --> 00:20:43,688
Well, of course, maybe
you do, but I certainly--
317
00:20:43,896 --> 00:20:45,314
It's none of my business.
318
00:20:45,439 --> 00:20:48,609
Adelaide. Adelaide.
319
00:20:48,818 --> 00:20:52,738
My relationships with my clients
are professional.
320
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,866
And my private life is...
321
00:20:57,284 --> 00:20:58,619
private.
322
00:20:58,703 --> 00:21:01,330
Well, I'm glad to hear that,
323
00:21:01,539 --> 00:21:04,333
because I was afraid that I
was a disappointment to you.
324
00:21:04,417 --> 00:21:07,420
I was a disappointment
to men back in Iowa.
325
00:21:07,586 --> 00:21:10,923
Lord knows, Iowa's not Hawaii.
But, you see,
326
00:21:11,132 --> 00:21:14,135
I've been saving myself
for the right man.
327
00:21:14,427 --> 00:21:16,554
Well, I think that's just fine.
328
00:21:16,762 --> 00:21:18,723
- Do you really?
- Mm-hmm.
329
00:21:18,806 --> 00:21:22,309
Because lately I've been worried
that maybe I've been saved too long.
330
00:21:22,435 --> 00:21:25,020
Like a jar of strawberry
preserves on the shelf all winter
331
00:21:25,104 --> 00:21:26,480
that just explodes one day.
332
00:21:26,605 --> 00:21:29,775
And there you are with...
jam all over the ceiling
333
00:21:29,859 --> 00:21:31,652
and broken glass
all over the floor.
334
00:21:31,736 --> 00:21:36,282
Adelaide, no one's gonna confuse
you with strawberry preserves.
335
00:21:37,742 --> 00:21:43,497
So, with the reputation of a
private investigator being what it is,
336
00:21:43,956 --> 00:21:46,917
I've been nervous that
you were gonna pounce.
337
00:21:49,962 --> 00:21:51,422
Pounce?
338
00:21:53,966 --> 00:21:57,928
And nervous about
what I'd do if you do.
339
00:21:58,137 --> 00:22:00,139
But lately, Mr. Magnum,
340
00:22:00,264 --> 00:22:03,517
I've been nervous about
what I'll do if you don't.
341
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,579
That's where they're keeping
Arabella Hill.
342
00:22:23,662 --> 00:22:26,332
It's just a diversion.
just like last time.
343
00:22:26,457 --> 00:22:29,251
- Are you going out there?
- Yeah, I just wanna say hi.
344
00:22:29,335 --> 00:22:32,588
I think this time things are
gonna be a little more even.
345
00:22:48,938 --> 00:22:50,314
Damn!
346
00:23:09,458 --> 00:23:11,126
Are you all right?
347
00:23:11,335 --> 00:23:13,537
Ever since I met you, that's all
people have been asking me,
348
00:23:13,838 --> 00:23:16,131
and frankly,
I'm beginning to wonder.
349
00:23:34,692 --> 00:23:39,071
Thomas, I know you like to work closely
with your clients, but this is ridiculous.
350
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,323
Hi, guys.
It's great to see you.
351
00:23:41,574 --> 00:23:44,618
Something of a surprise,
but still great.
352
00:23:46,850 --> 00:23:47,891
Yes?
353
00:23:49,582 --> 00:23:50,666
What?
354
00:23:50,875 --> 00:23:52,835
Well, how do you like our outfits?
355
00:23:53,168 --> 00:23:55,296
They're... unbelievable.
356
00:23:55,504 --> 00:23:58,007
Yes. I called the society editor
at the newspaper
357
00:23:58,090 --> 00:24:00,885
to find out
precisely what to wear.
358
00:24:03,679 --> 00:24:05,931
Was this a local paper, T.C.?
359
00:24:06,140 --> 00:24:08,976
You know we're not gonna embarrass
Robin Masters in front of his friends.
360
00:24:09,310 --> 00:24:12,104
I understand.
And believe me, I appreciate it.
361
00:24:12,187 --> 00:24:14,607
The box is... 4-A.
362
00:24:18,027 --> 00:24:19,778
Tallyho.
363
00:24:21,697 --> 00:24:24,575
Have a cigar.
Don't burn the barn down.
364
00:24:25,784 --> 00:24:27,620
Thank you very much.
365
00:24:37,504 --> 00:24:39,381
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
366
00:24:39,456 --> 00:24:42,843
to the first annual Hawaii
International Horse Show.
367
00:24:42,968 --> 00:24:46,722
In just a short while, we'll begin
the finals for the grand prix jumpers
368
00:24:46,847 --> 00:24:52,144
and find out which horse will walk
away with the $25,000 first prize.
369
00:24:56,190 --> 00:24:59,276
The Anglo-American grand prix
jumper is an extraordinary animal,
370
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:02,196
combining the grace,
stamina and cunning of the Arab
371
00:25:02,404 --> 00:25:05,991
with the stature, legs and
muscular strength of a thoroughbred.
372
00:25:06,825 --> 00:25:08,202
Magnum?
373
00:25:10,746 --> 00:25:12,373
What a surprise.
374
00:25:12,790 --> 00:25:13,874
Higgins.
375
00:25:14,124 --> 00:25:15,918
- Ladies.
- Um--
376
00:25:16,043 --> 00:25:19,380
Why don't you ladies just proceed
to Mr. Masters's box?
377
00:25:24,385 --> 00:25:26,470
I thought you hated horse shows.
378
00:25:26,679 --> 00:25:28,973
I told you Robin Masters's aunt
and her daughter were coming.
379
00:25:29,056 --> 00:25:31,183
The girl is simply crazed
for animals.
380
00:25:31,392 --> 00:25:34,853
If it were polo, I could understand.
The thrill of a rugged chukker--
381
00:25:37,356 --> 00:25:38,941
You're not here for the show,
are you?
382
00:25:39,175 --> 00:25:41,844
What you really mean is I'm not
sharing Robin Masters's box with you,
383
00:25:42,069 --> 00:25:44,238
- isn't that it, Higgins?
- Precisely.
384
00:25:44,446 --> 00:25:46,907
The answer is no.
I happen to be here on a case.
385
00:25:47,449 --> 00:25:50,995
Oh? A divorcée and her lover
are here? Where's your camera?
386
00:25:51,829 --> 00:25:55,374
This is extortion, Higgins.
Life and death.
387
00:25:58,210 --> 00:25:59,753
Isn't that--
388
00:26:00,212 --> 00:26:03,215
Yes, that's the girl that so
desperately had to see you.
389
00:26:03,507 --> 00:26:05,175
You're protecting her life?
390
00:26:05,342 --> 00:26:08,387
Higgins, just go to the box.
I've gotta get back to work.
391
00:26:08,887 --> 00:26:10,222
- Hi!
- Hi.
392
00:26:10,305 --> 00:26:12,474
Have you been telling Mr. Higgins
about the case?
393
00:26:12,599 --> 00:26:16,687
He's been a hero twice.
Last night he saved Norman's life.
394
00:26:17,229 --> 00:26:19,064
Norman? Another uncle?
395
00:26:19,273 --> 00:26:22,234
Oh, no. Charles Cathcart
is my uncle. Norman is--
396
00:26:22,317 --> 00:26:25,112
Higgins, the five-gaited class
is just about to start.
397
00:26:25,362 --> 00:26:27,656
- Norman is?
- My horse.
398
00:26:29,324 --> 00:26:31,035
You're guarding her--
399
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,289
Oh, Magnum, this is too much.
400
00:26:35,497 --> 00:26:37,082
It's too droll.
401
00:26:37,291 --> 00:26:39,710
Extortion and murder.
Really.
402
00:26:47,801 --> 00:26:49,428
We shall see about this.
403
00:26:51,805 --> 00:26:53,807
I kind of hoped he'd say that.
404
00:26:54,058 --> 00:26:56,268
Magnum, I've just got one problem.
405
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,228
I'm scared to death.
406
00:26:58,353 --> 00:27:01,398
My mouth is dry, my hands
are wet, and my heart is racing.
407
00:27:01,648 --> 00:27:04,109
If I'm scared, then he'll feel it,
and then he'll be scared,
408
00:27:04,193 --> 00:27:05,694
and then we won't perform
up to our peak--
409
00:27:05,778 --> 00:27:08,155
Adelaide.
Adelaide.
410
00:27:08,489 --> 00:27:12,367
You are a bright, strong,
young woman from Iowa.
411
00:27:12,451 --> 00:27:14,453
Pioneer stock.
412
00:27:14,703 --> 00:27:18,415
Now, you're going to take a
deep breath, get on your horse
413
00:27:19,566 --> 00:27:21,401
and ride like the
champion you are.
414
00:27:21,919 --> 00:27:24,588
All set, Adelaide. Time to go.
415
00:27:24,963 --> 00:27:27,091
- But I don't know--
- Because if you don't,
416
00:27:27,299 --> 00:27:28,801
they'll win.
417
00:27:29,009 --> 00:27:31,261
They'll have beaten you
even if they don't get Norman.
418
00:27:32,429 --> 00:27:34,515
Are you gonna let that happen?
419
00:27:36,850 --> 00:27:40,979
Now, let me see
that terrific smile.
420
00:27:44,983 --> 00:27:46,568
All right.
Get on your horse.
421
00:28:00,916 --> 00:28:03,627
Do you really think
I have a terrific smile?
422
00:28:03,710 --> 00:28:05,462
Yes, I do.
423
00:28:06,213 --> 00:28:08,173
On behalf of all of us affiliated
424
00:28:08,257 --> 00:28:10,300
with the
Hawaii International Horse Show,
425
00:28:10,384 --> 00:28:13,637
we'd like to extend a special
welcome to our special guest,
426
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,430
Mayor Ronald Carron.
427
00:28:22,521 --> 00:28:24,731
Robin Masters had a box
going to waste!
428
00:28:24,815 --> 00:28:26,650
- He threw us out! Out!
- Who did?
429
00:28:26,733 --> 00:28:29,653
Higgins. He threw us out of
Robin's box seats. 4-A, remember?
430
00:28:29,736 --> 00:28:32,531
Higgins hates horse shows.
I never thought he'd be here.
431
00:28:32,739 --> 00:28:35,367
Aw, forget it. I don't like
horses I can't bet on anyway.
432
00:28:35,492 --> 00:28:38,620
Oh, no, no. I'm standing here
clean as the board of health.
433
00:28:38,704 --> 00:28:41,373
I-I'm too dressed up for nothing.
434
00:28:41,623 --> 00:28:43,959
I'm with you, T.C. Your trip
out here shouldn't be wasted.
435
00:28:44,168 --> 00:28:45,919
- I smell a rat.
- I know.
436
00:28:46,170 --> 00:28:48,463
You could help me watch
Adelaide and Norman
437
00:28:48,516 --> 00:28:49,892
while they're in the ring here.
438
00:28:49,981 --> 00:28:52,567
I knew it. I knew it!
439
00:28:52,634 --> 00:28:54,344
He wanted to do us
a favor for a change.
440
00:28:54,428 --> 00:28:57,139
All you wanted us here
was for some surveillance for free.
441
00:28:57,222 --> 00:28:59,266
Man, I'm too dressed up
for any surveillance.
442
00:28:59,349 --> 00:29:00,934
It's not that at all, T.C.
443
00:29:01,101 --> 00:29:03,312
Why do you always have
to be so damn suspicious?
444
00:29:03,478 --> 00:29:06,690
I'm not asking--
Rick. Rick, tell him.
445
00:29:06,899 --> 00:29:08,859
Hey, come on, guys.
I need your help.
446
00:29:09,735 --> 00:29:12,654
Honest! Okay, okay.
447
00:29:14,031 --> 00:29:16,617
All right. Look.
448
00:29:16,867 --> 00:29:20,204
I was wrong, guys. I should've come
right out and asked you for your help.
449
00:29:20,412 --> 00:29:21,788
Uh-huh!
450
00:29:21,872 --> 00:29:25,292
Now, just why didn't you
do that, Thomas Magnum?
451
00:29:25,459 --> 00:29:27,920
Because I was afraid
you wouldn't wanna do it.
452
00:29:28,008 --> 00:29:29,963
You thought you'd
have to make a deal.
453
00:29:30,214 --> 00:29:31,423
A deal?
454
00:29:31,649 --> 00:29:33,508
- Your bar tab.
- Some gas money.
455
00:29:34,089 --> 00:29:35,208
Which?
456
00:29:35,664 --> 00:29:36,957
Both!
457
00:29:37,137 --> 00:29:39,097
Our next horse
in the final jump-off
458
00:29:39,181 --> 00:29:41,934
of the $25,000 grand prix
is Arabella Hill
459
00:29:42,059 --> 00:29:43,810
from the Maltby Stables in Boston,
460
00:29:43,894 --> 00:29:46,438
ridden by
Mr. Lawrence Maltby himself.
461
00:29:46,647 --> 00:29:49,816
The time to beat is 27.8 seconds.
462
00:30:26,103 --> 00:30:29,481
Let's have a big round of applause
for our new leader, Arabella Hill,
463
00:30:29,564 --> 00:30:33,944
for a clean round
with a time of 27.2 seconds!
464
00:30:42,661 --> 00:30:45,163
Here's our next entrant
from the Morton Levy Stables,
465
00:30:45,247 --> 00:30:46,623
Binghamton, New York,
466
00:30:46,832 --> 00:30:48,667
Gunshot, ridden by Arlene Levy.
467
00:31:31,209 --> 00:31:34,546
A good time for Gunshot.
28.2 seconds.
468
00:31:34,629 --> 00:31:36,882
Just one second too slow.
469
00:31:58,904 --> 00:32:02,949
Entering the ring, our last entry
in the jump-off is Norman,
470
00:32:03,033 --> 00:32:04,826
ridden by Adelaide Malone
471
00:32:04,910 --> 00:32:08,330
from the Cathcart Ranch
on the Big Island of Hawaii.
472
00:32:08,413 --> 00:32:11,583
Remember, the time she has to beat
is 27.2 seconds.
473
00:32:51,957 --> 00:32:54,668
A perfect score
for Adelaide Malone's Norman!
474
00:32:54,751 --> 00:32:58,463
No faults.
Time: 26.4 seconds.
475
00:32:58,672 --> 00:33:02,384
Norman is our first
Hawaiian grand prix champion.
476
00:33:02,634 --> 00:33:05,220
Let's have a big round of applause
for Norman
477
00:33:05,429 --> 00:33:08,390
and Miss Adelaide Malone!
478
00:33:19,818 --> 00:33:22,863
On behalf of the Hawaiian
Thoroughbred Club,
479
00:33:23,113 --> 00:33:26,199
it gives me great pleasure to
present you with the winner's trophy.
480
00:33:26,408 --> 00:33:28,577
Thank you, sir.
481
00:33:33,290 --> 00:33:35,667
And this check for $25,000.
482
00:33:35,792 --> 00:33:39,212
Thank you again, sir. Thank you.
483
00:33:42,632 --> 00:33:44,676
My dear, you were magnificent.
484
00:33:44,759 --> 00:33:46,803
Oh, it was Norman.
485
00:33:46,887 --> 00:33:48,263
Thank you.
486
00:33:58,986 --> 00:34:02,360
I've got a bottle of champagne
for us to celebrate the sale.
487
00:34:02,569 --> 00:34:05,489
Well, not champagne exactly,
since I don't drink.
488
00:34:05,572 --> 00:34:08,033
But I didn't think you'd mind
if it was sparkling apple cider,
489
00:34:08,158 --> 00:34:10,869
since it looks the same
with the bubbles and all.
490
00:34:12,370 --> 00:34:14,831
I'm afraid I'm not
doing this very well.
491
00:34:16,541 --> 00:34:20,670
Oh, Adelaide, I think you're
coming through like a champ.
492
00:34:21,505 --> 00:34:22,923
Where's your uncle?
493
00:34:25,091 --> 00:34:28,428
He said he had to get to the bank
with our prize money,
494
00:34:28,553 --> 00:34:31,973
otherwise the check for Norman's
board and feed here would bounce.
495
00:34:32,265 --> 00:34:36,144
But actually, I think he's sentimental
about saying goodbye to Norman too.
496
00:34:36,269 --> 00:34:38,813
Wait a minute.
We're not handling the sale alone?
497
00:34:39,022 --> 00:34:40,607
Oh, no, of course not.
498
00:34:40,690 --> 00:34:43,860
Uncle Charles's lawyer,
William McDonald, is handling it.
499
00:34:44,069 --> 00:34:46,404
He's coming out with
Mr. Habib's representative.
500
00:34:46,488 --> 00:34:48,073
You know Mr. McDonald?
501
00:34:48,323 --> 00:34:49,574
No.
502
00:34:49,699 --> 00:34:52,160
But Uncle Charles
gave me his card.
503
00:34:56,081 --> 00:34:58,583
- What's wrong?
- Nothing.
504
00:34:58,708 --> 00:35:01,795
Only you and Norman
aren't really out of danger
505
00:35:01,878 --> 00:35:04,589
till he's actually
in the buyer's van.
506
00:35:04,798 --> 00:35:07,509
I understand that,
but what's the problem?
507
00:35:07,634 --> 00:35:10,887
If you and I don't know
the people involved in the sale--
508
00:35:11,012 --> 00:35:13,682
But nobody's threatened us
since yesterday,
509
00:35:13,807 --> 00:35:15,433
and nothing happened
in the ring.
510
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,018
I know. That's what's bugging me.
511
00:35:17,102 --> 00:35:18,562
William McDonald, attorney at law.
512
00:35:18,645 --> 00:35:20,021
This is Thomas Magnum.
513
00:35:20,105 --> 00:35:22,482
I'm coordinating the transfer
of the Cathcart Ranch's horse.
514
00:35:22,566 --> 00:35:25,110
Could you tell me when Mr. McDonald
is due to arrive at the stables?
515
00:35:25,193 --> 00:35:27,737
He's on his way now.
He should be there any minute.
516
00:35:27,821 --> 00:35:30,282
Would you describe
him to me so I'll recognize him?
517
00:35:30,365 --> 00:35:32,659
He's about 45, medium height,
518
00:35:32,867 --> 00:35:35,954
dark hair, mustached,
horned-rim glasses.
519
00:35:39,332 --> 00:35:41,126
Miss Malone.
520
00:35:41,410 --> 00:35:43,086
- Hi. I'm Bill McDonald.
- Hi.
521
00:35:43,169 --> 00:35:44,671
- Is your uncle here?
- No.
522
00:35:44,754 --> 00:35:46,631
Mr. Cathcart was called away.
523
00:35:46,715 --> 00:35:48,883
I'm Thomas Magnum. I'll be
handling this for Miss Malone.
524
00:35:49,092 --> 00:35:52,846
Uh-huh. This is Robert Emery,
Mr. Habib's representative.
525
00:35:53,096 --> 00:35:55,640
I hate to ask you this.
I'm sure you understand.
526
00:35:55,724 --> 00:35:58,059
We can't take any chances.
I need to see some identification.
527
00:35:58,310 --> 00:36:00,854
Of course you do. I think I've
got all the identification you need
528
00:36:00,937 --> 00:36:03,064
right here in this briefcase.
529
00:36:07,861 --> 00:36:09,279
Here's a bill of sale.
530
00:36:11,615 --> 00:36:16,036
And here is a letter of credit
and a draft for $250,000
531
00:36:16,119 --> 00:36:18,163
and an export license.
532
00:36:21,082 --> 00:36:24,961
Now, we have to check
Norman's I.D.
533
00:36:25,286 --> 00:36:27,496
Excuse me. Are you the
people selling the horse?
534
00:36:27,714 --> 00:36:29,591
- Yes.
- All right!
535
00:36:29,716 --> 00:36:31,343
The tattoo on the
inside of the lip.
536
00:36:31,509 --> 00:36:34,262
Every thoroughbred is given one
when they register them.
537
00:36:35,180 --> 00:36:37,641
Now, would you like to see
the tattoo on my lip?
538
00:36:38,892 --> 00:36:42,771
No, sir. Your secretary described
you when I called the office.
539
00:36:42,867 --> 00:36:44,397
She's very helpful, Miss Dennis.
540
00:36:45,106 --> 00:36:46,399
Miss Dennis?
541
00:36:46,483 --> 00:36:48,568
No. My secretary's Nancy York.
542
00:36:48,818 --> 00:36:51,237
Oh. My mistake. I'm sorry.
543
00:36:51,446 --> 00:36:53,782
How about a shot of you
handing the check to the girl?
544
00:36:53,990 --> 00:36:56,993
Instead, why not photograph them
leading the horse into the van?
545
00:36:57,077 --> 00:36:59,454
After all, they're the champions.
546
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,099
That's a great idea.
How about it?
547
00:37:02,624 --> 00:37:03,958
Sure. Great.
548
00:37:04,042 --> 00:37:05,919
Take that.
549
00:37:07,337 --> 00:37:11,966
Well, Norman, this is it.
No tears now. You're a big boy.
550
00:37:12,425 --> 00:37:14,094
You're a champion.
551
00:37:17,430 --> 00:37:19,599
Okay, that's a great
shot of you and the horse.
552
00:37:19,724 --> 00:37:22,519
Now I want to get all of you.
Okay.
553
00:37:28,191 --> 00:37:31,152
I've got your check
for your fee of $350,
554
00:37:31,361 --> 00:37:33,238
except that in view
of everything that's transpired,
555
00:37:33,321 --> 00:37:35,323
$350 doesn't seem like
nearly enough.
556
00:37:35,448 --> 00:37:36,574
Adelaide--
557
00:37:36,658 --> 00:37:39,744
So I'd like to give you
a bonus -- $1,000 --
558
00:37:39,911 --> 00:37:42,664
if it wouldn't be unprofessional
of you to accept it.
559
00:37:47,419 --> 00:37:49,671
- From Peg and Larry.
- Oh.
560
00:37:49,754 --> 00:37:51,506
Peg and Larry, gracias.
561
00:37:51,548 --> 00:37:53,341
- Hi, Uncle Charles.
- Adelaide.
562
00:37:53,466 --> 00:37:54,801
May I take your order?
563
00:37:54,884 --> 00:37:56,928
Oh, that's all right.
Thank you.
564
00:37:57,011 --> 00:38:00,557
We've got our beverage, but we
would appreciate some glasses and ice.
565
00:38:00,632 --> 00:38:03,635
Have a drink, Mr. Magnum,
if your drink is bourbon and water.
566
00:38:03,727 --> 00:38:04,978
No, thank you.
567
00:38:05,061 --> 00:38:06,688
I have the money for Norman,
568
00:38:06,771 --> 00:38:09,065
and I hugged him goodbye
for you.
569
00:38:09,141 --> 00:38:11,359
Mr. Magnum was
simply outstanding,
570
00:38:11,443 --> 00:38:13,611
the way he organized
and checked everything.
571
00:38:15,572 --> 00:38:18,241
I was beginning to think
it would never happen.
572
00:38:19,159 --> 00:38:21,953
Adelaide, I know--
I know how--
573
00:38:22,036 --> 00:38:24,706
Well, you hated
selling that horse. So did I.
574
00:38:24,998 --> 00:38:27,250
But that's why we breed them.
To sell them, right?
575
00:38:28,168 --> 00:38:31,838
Well, this means we'll be able
to raise a lot more, doesn't it?
576
00:38:31,921 --> 00:38:35,049
So I don't really mind...
so very much.
577
00:38:37,252 --> 00:38:40,005
I'm rich, Mr. Magnum.
I'm rich!
578
00:38:41,473 --> 00:38:44,267
Uh-- Mr. Cathcart, there's a
Mr. McDonald outside looking for you.
579
00:38:44,350 --> 00:38:46,144
Oh, yes!
Thank you. Excuse me.
580
00:38:56,488 --> 00:39:00,116
Charles, you can celebrate later.
Where's Norman?
581
00:39:00,867 --> 00:39:02,702
What's he talking about?
582
00:39:03,578 --> 00:39:07,999
Adelaide, I think you better hold
off on that bonus for just a minute.
583
00:39:12,295 --> 00:39:15,256
"Private Eye Helps Horsenappers."
584
00:39:15,507 --> 00:39:18,051
Magnum, I had no idea
you took such a good picture.
585
00:39:18,134 --> 00:39:20,094
You're really quite photogenic.
586
00:39:20,194 --> 00:39:23,306
Higgins, Adelaide will be back
any second, so if you don't mind--
587
00:39:23,389 --> 00:39:25,767
Actually, with that overly
aggressive mustache of yours,
588
00:39:27,060 --> 00:39:28,853
you look a bit like Rhett Butler.
589
00:39:29,896 --> 00:39:32,190
- Higgins, what--
- I'll store this in a safe place
590
00:39:32,357 --> 00:39:35,485
until I can clip it
and send it on to Robin Masters.
591
00:39:35,693 --> 00:39:36,736
Higgins!
592
00:39:36,820 --> 00:39:38,655
Since Adelaide hired me,
593
00:39:38,738 --> 00:39:41,199
I have been beaten up, blown up
and banged on the head.
594
00:39:41,282 --> 00:39:44,994
The police questioned me for six
hours yesterday as a suspect in the case,
595
00:39:45,203 --> 00:39:47,372
and Adelaide's uncle
is threatening me with a lawsuit.
596
00:39:47,580 --> 00:39:49,415
I promise, word of honor,
597
00:39:49,499 --> 00:39:52,460
to obey the rules of the household
without fail for two weeks,
598
00:39:52,544 --> 00:39:54,671
but all I'm asking you, Higgins,
599
00:39:54,754 --> 00:39:57,549
is to answer my damn questions!
600
00:39:58,842 --> 00:40:01,344
I've never heard you
talk that way before.
601
00:40:01,803 --> 00:40:04,013
Higgins, please.
602
00:40:06,516 --> 00:40:09,185
Assuming that there was
a valid contract of sale
603
00:40:09,269 --> 00:40:11,437
to establish Norman's value,
604
00:40:11,510 --> 00:40:13,387
the answer is yes.
605
00:40:13,481 --> 00:40:16,192
An insurance policy can be written
so that the payoff is determined
606
00:40:16,276 --> 00:40:19,279
by the fair market value
of the animal at the time of loss,
607
00:40:19,737 --> 00:40:22,782
whether that be theft,
accident, death,
608
00:40:22,991 --> 00:40:25,702
or in Norman's case,
even sterility.
609
00:40:27,620 --> 00:40:28,913
Sterility?
610
00:40:29,956 --> 00:40:32,667
I remember in India,
just before the empire packed it in,
611
00:40:32,750 --> 00:40:36,170
one of our colonels paid a
frightful amount for a stud polo pony.
612
00:40:36,254 --> 00:40:40,049
But when it came time
for the poor animal to produce--
613
00:40:41,134 --> 00:40:42,343
Sterile.
614
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,847
- Norman could be sterile.
- Oh, yes.
615
00:40:45,930 --> 00:40:48,266
Today's thoroughbreds
from birth are given
616
00:40:48,349 --> 00:40:51,144
massive doses of vitamins,
hormones, steroids.
617
00:40:51,394 --> 00:40:54,689
We don't know the effects of all
of them, but there are dangers.
618
00:40:54,814 --> 00:40:56,774
Danger of what?
619
00:41:00,111 --> 00:41:03,654
Adelaide,
do you carry sterility insurance?
620
00:41:04,376 --> 00:41:05,836
- What?
- On Norman.
621
00:41:06,034 --> 00:41:09,621
- Do you carry sterility insurance?
- I heard you. No.
622
00:41:09,704 --> 00:41:12,874
But we didn't have to.
Uncle Charles had Norman examined,
623
00:41:12,999 --> 00:41:16,336
and the Arabs even demanded
a... lab specimen.
624
00:41:16,586 --> 00:41:18,796
And I read the report.
It was perfect.
625
00:41:18,922 --> 00:41:20,965
But he could've faked that,
switched the samples.
626
00:41:21,925 --> 00:41:23,509
Uncle Charles?
627
00:41:23,843 --> 00:41:27,472
Adelaide, this just didn't
feel right from the beginning.
628
00:41:27,555 --> 00:41:30,308
Those cowboys with black hats
demanding extortion money
629
00:41:30,433 --> 00:41:32,143
and never setting up a drop.
630
00:41:33,770 --> 00:41:35,229
And that fire.
631
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:36,856
First I thought it was a diversion,
632
00:41:36,940 --> 00:41:40,318
but it turned out to be at exactly the
same end of the barn as Arabella Hill.
633
00:41:40,652 --> 00:41:42,654
And it spooked him, Adelaide.
634
00:41:44,489 --> 00:41:47,492
You said yourself that's why he gave
his worst performance of the season.
635
00:41:48,952 --> 00:41:51,663
I wanted to win fair and square.
636
00:41:51,788 --> 00:41:53,331
Aw.
637
00:41:54,874 --> 00:41:56,793
I know, Adelaide.
638
00:41:57,669 --> 00:42:01,172
I know you did.
But not your uncle.
639
00:42:01,589 --> 00:42:04,884
He wanted to make sure Norman
was worth the maximum before--
640
00:42:04,968 --> 00:42:08,805
Magnum, you're upsetting
this poor girl for no good reason.
641
00:42:09,013 --> 00:42:15,103
If Norman was sterile, and Cathcart
kidnapped him to collect the insurance,
642
00:42:15,186 --> 00:42:18,064
what could he possibly
have done with the horse?
643
00:42:18,272 --> 00:42:22,151
This island is very small, too
small to hide a horse for very long.
644
00:42:22,568 --> 00:42:25,238
He could only collect
if the animal was--
645
00:42:26,656 --> 00:42:27,907
No.
646
00:42:29,701 --> 00:42:32,286
No, he'd--he'd never kill Norman.
647
00:42:36,624 --> 00:42:38,418
It's okay.
648
00:42:40,878 --> 00:42:42,714
By the time I got back to the stable,
649
00:42:42,797 --> 00:42:44,841
I was praying I was wrong.
650
00:42:45,091 --> 00:42:48,928
But the more I thought about it,
the more I knew I was right.
651
00:42:49,178 --> 00:42:51,556
- Why'd we come back here?
- You know the expression
652
00:42:51,639 --> 00:42:53,433
"You can't see the forest
for the trees"?
653
00:42:53,485 --> 00:42:56,394
I always thought the best place
to hide a tree was in the forest.
654
00:42:56,477 --> 00:42:58,021
You think Norman's here.
655
00:42:58,229 --> 00:43:00,023
Like Higgins said,
it's a small island.
656
00:43:00,106 --> 00:43:03,693
Five-O had roadblocks up 15 minutes
after the horsenappers left.
657
00:43:03,943 --> 00:43:06,946
- The only place they hadn't looked--
- Was the show grounds.
658
00:43:14,245 --> 00:43:15,580
Norman?
659
00:43:16,914 --> 00:43:18,416
Norman?
660
00:43:20,668 --> 00:43:22,170
Norman!
661
00:43:25,006 --> 00:43:26,382
Norman!
662
00:43:28,217 --> 00:43:30,678
Norman, hello!
663
00:43:30,769 --> 00:43:32,138
Hello.
664
00:43:33,306 --> 00:43:34,932
What'd they do to him?
665
00:43:35,133 --> 00:43:37,560
They just died his blaze,
that's all.
666
00:43:37,727 --> 00:43:40,521
Hiya, Norman! How ya doin'?
667
00:43:51,449 --> 00:43:53,534
- Uncle Charles!
- Sorry, Adelaide.
668
00:43:53,618 --> 00:43:56,120
You should've listened to me.
I told you I could handle this.
669
00:43:56,204 --> 00:43:58,956
By killing Norman and
collecting the insurance money?
670
00:43:59,165 --> 00:44:00,583
Norman's sterile, isn't he?
671
00:44:00,666 --> 00:44:02,376
First you faked
the lab specimen,
672
00:44:02,585 --> 00:44:05,505
- then the extortion threat--
- Magnum, you shut up.
673
00:44:05,755 --> 00:44:10,718
I want you to do one thing.
Just take that gun out... very easy.
674
00:44:11,844 --> 00:44:13,471
Now.
675
00:44:14,388 --> 00:44:15,848
Easy, man.
676
00:44:20,311 --> 00:44:23,231
- You're not gonna kill Norman.
- Adelaide, I have to.
677
00:44:23,314 --> 00:44:25,191
It's the only way
I can get the money.
678
00:44:25,274 --> 00:44:27,985
He's gotta be dead, Adelaide.
Don't you see that?
679
00:44:28,528 --> 00:44:30,363
Then you kill me too.
680
00:44:30,571 --> 00:44:31,864
Adelaide, I can't kill you.
681
00:44:36,911 --> 00:44:40,081
I can't kill you! No!
682
00:44:45,044 --> 00:44:47,380
- Adelaide, get the gun!
- I found it!
683
00:44:50,174 --> 00:44:51,592
Then point it at them!
684
00:44:51,843 --> 00:44:53,970
Hold it,
or I'll blow you to glory.
685
00:44:54,262 --> 00:44:56,722
Her dad taught her to shoot
back in Iowa.
686
00:44:56,889 --> 00:45:00,143
My father did teach me to shoot.
And if they move, I'll kill 'em.
687
00:45:00,226 --> 00:45:02,770
But what about Uncle Charles?
688
00:45:06,691 --> 00:45:08,317
Take the safety off.
689
00:45:31,090 --> 00:45:34,427
Whoa, son. Whoa.
690
00:45:35,720 --> 00:45:37,388
It's all right, Norman.
691
00:45:38,431 --> 00:45:40,016
Whoa.
692
00:45:41,392 --> 00:45:43,019
It's not your fault.
693
00:45:45,938 --> 00:45:47,690
Not your fault at all.
694
00:45:48,399 --> 00:45:49,901
Come on.
695
00:45:59,493 --> 00:46:02,455
Play for the club championship
will begin.
696
00:46:04,874 --> 00:46:07,335
But I don't need to tell you
what's at stake.
697
00:46:15,176 --> 00:46:16,969
Magnum!
698
00:46:18,971 --> 00:46:21,265
No more distressing news,
I hope.
699
00:46:23,559 --> 00:46:25,686
I paid money for this, you know.
700
00:46:25,770 --> 00:46:28,356
Uh, I would like to win
this tournament.
701
00:46:28,439 --> 00:46:31,150
I'm very apologetic for interrupting,
but I double-parked the van
702
00:46:31,234 --> 00:46:34,028
with Norman out front,
and the valet is getting very upset.
703
00:46:34,111 --> 00:46:36,197
- You'd think by now he knew me--
- Adelaide, what--
704
00:46:36,405 --> 00:46:38,741
Well, your check for $350.
705
00:46:38,824 --> 00:46:42,203
Except it's only 100, and my
I.O.U. with interest on the balance,
706
00:46:42,286 --> 00:46:44,870
because I had the extra expense
of the van to take Norman home,
707
00:46:44,956 --> 00:46:46,390
because nobody wanted to buy him,
708
00:46:46,499 --> 00:46:49,543
though I'm really relieved
not to lose him... here.
709
00:46:52,129 --> 00:46:54,590
What's my security for the I.O.U.?
710
00:46:54,924 --> 00:46:58,386
Magnum, I'm from Iowa.
You know I'm good for it.
711
00:46:59,553 --> 00:47:01,514
Yeah, I guess you are.
712
00:47:03,099 --> 00:47:05,851
And a terrific smile.
Don't forget that.
713
00:47:06,185 --> 00:47:07,770
Never.
714
00:47:09,063 --> 00:47:10,940
There's just one more thing.
715
00:47:11,107 --> 00:47:13,317
It's rather personal.
716
00:47:14,235 --> 00:47:15,945
Thomas.
717
00:47:17,989 --> 00:47:20,116
In the middle
of a volleyball tournament?
718
00:47:21,117 --> 00:47:23,244
I may never
have the nerve again.
719
00:47:23,327 --> 00:47:25,746
But lately I seem to have
lots of nerve.
720
00:47:25,871 --> 00:47:28,249
Do you remember how
surprised I was when we first met
721
00:47:28,457 --> 00:47:30,251
and you were standing in
the shower drinking a beer?
722
00:47:30,459 --> 00:47:32,753
Well, it was because Uncle
Charles had warned me
723
00:47:32,837 --> 00:47:35,589
that you were a womanizer
and a bounder and a roué.
724
00:47:35,756 --> 00:47:37,091
A "roué"?
725
00:47:37,300 --> 00:47:41,220
Well, now I know that it was
just to keep me from hiring you.
726
00:47:41,304 --> 00:47:43,723
But the reason
I was surprised was
727
00:47:43,806 --> 00:47:46,767
because you had the
kindest eyes I'd ever seen.
728
00:47:46,976 --> 00:47:50,104
And now I know you're not...
a roué.
729
00:47:50,354 --> 00:47:51,731
And I--
730
00:47:51,814 --> 00:47:53,691
I'd really appreciate it--
731
00:47:55,234 --> 00:47:57,445
I'd be beholden to you if--
732
00:48:19,633 --> 00:48:23,179
Don't encourage him!
I'm trying to win this thing!
733
00:48:26,724 --> 00:48:28,976
The kindest eyes I'd ever seen.
734
00:48:29,185 --> 00:48:31,437
Thomas Magnum,
private investigator.
735
00:48:38,361 --> 00:48:40,404
Begin play.
736
00:48:40,863 --> 00:48:42,990
I guess when I became
a private investigator,
737
00:48:43,115 --> 00:48:46,327
I had my share of fantasies
about beautiful women I'd rescue,
738
00:48:46,410 --> 00:48:50,414
who'd, you know,
be grateful for my services.
739
00:48:50,623 --> 00:48:52,750
Most days aren't like that.
740
00:48:52,958 --> 00:48:56,545
But, well, some days
are better than others.
741
00:49:02,134 --> 00:49:03,719
All right!
