All language subtitles for Magnum P.I. s01e11 The Curse Of The King Kamehameha Club.eng

[ Speaking Hawaiian ]

He just threw a curse
over the whole place.

[ Man ]
Come on, Thomas.!

What happened?
Moki, get an ambulance. I don't know.

- It's too late.
- Henry Lewis could have literally been cursed to death.

Look at you. You're sitting around here
like you're ready to die.

These are legitimate aches
and pains I got, Thomas.

- That stuff's all folklore.
- Well, you tell that to Henry Lewis.

Here! Over here!
They're over here!

[ Screams ]

[ Man Chanting In Hawaiian ]
[ Wind Chimes Clanging ]

[ Chanting Continues ]

[ Man ]
The final report before the board takes up new business,

will be given by Mr. Higgins.

As the board is aware,

I have placed a box for complaints
in the clubhouse lobby...

so that members might voice
any criticisms they may have concerning the facilities and services.

I call it my complaints corner.

I have sorted through the complaints,
and would at this time...

like to bring some of them
to the attention of the board.

First,

parking.

Many members have complained
that some people are parking in the wrong spaces,

or in spaces not assigned to them.

The parking is supposed to be handled
by our valets. Some people continue to ignore this service.

Probably because
they're too cheap to tip.

The second complaint
deals with dress.

Although this is a recreational facility,

some portions of the club
do require proper attire.

A requirement that some members
continue to blatantly ignore.

And finally,

I have noticed an inordinate number
of guest charges on one particular individual's tab.

Whose?

[ Together]
Put it on Robin's tab. [ Laughing ]

I'll pay it, T.C. I just don't have
the cash on me right now, that's all. [ Chuckles ]

If that concludes all the business
for this meeting--

Mr. Chairman, I feel compelled
to voice a formal protest...

concerning the exploitation
of this club.

Higgins, you're not gonna start in
on that surf ski race again, are you?

Although I seem to be the only member
who understands the costly risks of this venture,

I am not protesting the race,

but rather the extravagant
promotional campaign for the race.

I move this meeting be adjourned,
so we can all go watch the qualifying runs. I second it.

You know, T.M., they got
some pretty strong-looking dudes in this surf ski race.

You know, I've been watching
old Henry Lewis out there.

Man, that cat's built solid
as a rock.

You know what?
When he's out on that water in his surfski,

man, his muscles move
like a finely-tuned machine.

Yep. Well, muscle
isn't everything, T.C.

Yeah, that's what Rick
keeps telling me.

But I'm gonna bet my money
on old Henry Lewis for sure.

Him? What about me, T.C.?

- You?
- Yeah.

[ Chuckles ]
Me bet on you?

Well, Rick's gonna bet on me.
Wanna bet?

It's cheap commercialism.
Oh, take it easy. A little publicity isn't gonna hurt.

It'll showcase the club
and bring in new members. New members mean new money.

This is a private club,
not a three-ring circus.

Higgins, it's only a couple
of photographers taking a couple of pictures with some quotes.

- It's not a big deal. It isn't.
- [ People Chattering ]

Hello. I'm Christine Richards
for Honolulu's KSFB.

Which of you is the official
spokesperson for the club?

[ Together]
I am.

I'm Rick,
the manager of the club. I see.

What can you tell us
about the race?

Nothing.
A lot. [ Laughs ]

Well, today-- today we're gonna
have qualifying sprints for the local contestants.

But we do have entries
from all over the world-- Mexico, France, Australia--

England.
and England.

All total, it's about 300 people.
27 9.

[ Sighs ]
27 9, right.

The route of the actual race,
which won't take place for another three days,

will be from Moloka"i to O"ahu
which is approximately 30 miles.

26.5 actually.

The best part of the race
is that we've opened it up to nonmember entries,

which is why we're expecting
a great, great turnout.

The, um, um--
[ Speaking Hawaiian ]

[ Clears Throat ]

- [ Christine ] What'd he say?
- [ Rick ] Wait. I wanna talk to you.

No, man, let him go.
I swear. I had nothing to do with this caper.

You know that guy, Moki?
He's a kahuna.

He's a crackpot, a kahuna!
Anyway, the race was blessed already.

That kahuna wasn't blessing.
He was cursing.

He just threw a curse
over the whole place.

He's probably too muscle-bound
to be very agile.

[ Chuckles ]
That's the same thing I was thinking, Charlie.

Well, Henry's favored to win.
So I've heard.

You gonna compete
in this craziness, huh, Magnum?

I'm gonna give it my best shot.
How 'bout you, Charlie?

Nah. I'm sticking
to my ocean laps.

Besides, who can beat Henry?

[ Chuckling ]

Hey, Henry, how 'bout
a little one-on-one? One-on-one with whom?

- With me.
- Oh, come on. You gotta be kidding.

He said he saw a demon
hovering over the club, the water, the sand.

Did he say why?

Unless he comes up with some specifics,
I'm just not gonna worry about it.

Well, you'd better worry about it,
especially since the entire episode was captured on tape,

courtesy of your free publicity.

Higgins, now don't get shook up.
He's probably a crazy old man with a lot of time on his hands.

It's precisely the kind of sensational
news coverage I was afraid of.

Well, the only sensational
news coverage we'll get is ifThomas passes Henry Lewis.

Hey, man.

I ain't seen Thomas move his tail
like that since he was running away from them dogs of yours, Higgins.

Hey, man, Thomas is starting
to gain on him!

[ Cackling ]
Let me see. Let me see.

He is. Come on, Thomas.!

Wait, wait, wait.
What the hell is Thomas doing now?

Hey, man, something's wrong.

[ Magnum ]
Hey, Charlie, help me out over here. Something's happened to Henry.

Henry. Let's get him in.

What happened?
Moki, get an ambulance. I don't know.

It's too late.

That's great, Bill.
Move in close. Get a close-up.

He's dead.

[ Magnum Narrating ]
I didn't particularly like going to the county morgue and inquire about a body.

It's kind oflike an impersonal reminder
of one's own mortality.

But I was here anyway by choice.

For some reason, I felt responsible
for Henry Lewis's death.

Maybe because I was racing him
at the time.

It was dumb, I know. But I'd feel better
when I found out why he died.

Young lady, at the moment
I don't know why this man died.

There's no evidence of any heart attack,
stroke or any other seizure.

No signs of anything.
Hejust died.

You're saying that a 3 5-year-old man
in perfect physical condition...

just dropped dead
for no apparent reason?

It's quite possible a combination
of sun and overexertion were just too much for him.

It is my understanding that he paddles
20 miles regularly for recreation.

Well, there's also a new theory
doctors are exploring.

A condition that affects
perfectly healthy athletes causing them to drop over dead.

Did you know that a kahuna
cursed the King Kamehameha Club moments before Henry Lewis collapsed?

No, I didn't.

Do you think that curse could have
had anything to do with his death?

I don't think. I mean,
I suppose, if Mr. Lewis really believed in such things.

Then you can't deny
the very real possibility...

that Henry Lewis could have
literally been cursed to death.

Wait a minute. Excuse me.

Aren't you getting
a little carried away with this? Who are you?

- Huh?
- Who are you?

- Thomas Magnum.
-Oh.

You're the man who was racing
against Henry Lewis when he died, is that correct?

- It was a trial heat, yeah.
- Are you a very close friend of his?

No, I was just racing against him.

Then what are you doing here?
Are you a member of the club?

No. I'm a private investigator.

I see.

And the club has hired you
to investigate this very strange death?

It wasn't a strange death.
I mean, the guy died.

Then why did they hire you
to look into it?

Well, as the official investigator
and spokesman for the club in this case,

I can only say that we're not
attributing anything to this kahuna's curse.

This is preposterous!
Official club spokesman.

Come on, Higgins.
I had to say something. You can see what she was trying to do.

What were you doing there
in the first place?

- I was trying to find out why Henry died!
- His death doesn't concern you.

- Yes, it does, Higgins. I hired Magnum.
- Thanks, Nadine.

- We're doomed.
- Only as long as we've got that Christine Richards hounding us.

She tends to get
a little carried away.

Yes, that was Rick's idea
for free publicity. What are you doing?

I think I got a sore throat.
Do me a favor. See if I got a temperature.

There's nothing wrong with you.
You're just upset over what's been happening here.

As well he should be.
This club is in critical condition.

Yeah, tell me about it.

Several people have requested
to withdraw their memberships, ten have pulled out of the race...

and a swimmer almost drowned
this morning from cramps in the pool.

- What swimmer?
- A girl this morning went out to do some laps, took a nosedive and almost drowned.

They took her to the hospital.
Is she all right?

Yeah, she's all right,
but that's not the point.

The point is that it's starting
to get to everybody here.

You'd thinkJaws is waiting out there
for his brunch. Take a look.

But somebody wants it that way
for a reason.

What for? All they gotta do
is come to me if they got a complaint...

or stick it in Higgins's
little complaint box.

[ Magnum ]
I think it goes a little deeper than a complaint, Rick.

Maybe somebody has a grudge
against the club, or you.

There's only one person
that would have a grudge against me.

If you're insinuating that I would stoop
to such a low-handed trick--

Hold it now!
I mean, come on. Look.

Maybe somebody wants
to take over the club.

Certainly not for profit.
This place is barely staying afloat.

- How 'bout the land?
- The land is leased like all the other land on the Islands.

They got another 46 years
to go on the lease. Forty-five.

Forty-five.
[ Alarm Ringing ]

What's that?
It's the fire alarm!

Fire extinguisher!

Stay back!

Get back.

What happened?
[ Speaking Foreign Language ]

- Tell me in English.
Now, what happened? - Grease fire.

Looks like someone threw a match
on an oil spill here.

Come on, Rick. Take it easy.
It's out. It's just a little fire.

This stove has suffered
severe fire damage.

- Where's the rest of the cooks?
- They called in sick today.

Allergic reaction to curses, huh?

Get someone in here
to clean this up immediately. Yes, Mr. Higgins.

And I expect something
to be done about this stove.

I thought I'd bring a hibachi
in from home, Higgins.

I've taken just about all
of your wise talk that I'm going to.

When the board meets again,
I'm sure a motion for your dismissal will meet with unanimous approval.

I'm gonna save you the trouble, pal.
I'm gonna quit first. How do you like that?

I don't need this aggravation.
I really don't.

Don't let Higgins get to you.
He really doesn't mean it.

You guys are just
at each other's throats.

Maybe so, but I'm getting tired
of getting blamed for everything that goes wrong.

Rick, you're a good manager
and you know it. So does Higgins.

The only thing Higgins knows
is that he wants me out. O-U-T.

And quite frankly,
I'm getting to like the idea.

You love this club.
You couldn't leave it.

I should have kept the disco--
Rick's Café Americana. Remember, Thomas?

The people, the music and Sam--
good old Sam. Now that was a club. That was a class-A club.

Yeah, it was a bust, remember?

Maybe so, but at least
it made me happy.

The only thing this place is doing
for me is giving me indigestion. I'm going.

My stomach's killing me.

Moki?
This is your drink.

Moki. I gotta talk to you.

Who was that kahuna
that was here yesterday?

Oh, yeah. I don't know
anything about the guy.

Moki, I don't wanna know
his life story. I just wanna know who he is.

I never seen him before.
Moki.

It's a big island, Magnum.
It ain't easy finding guys like that.

Well, give me a clue.
North Shore.

And I believe his name
is Makua. Moki?

Yeah, he's Makua.

You knew he was all along
and you didn't say anything?

He's a kahuna, Thomas.
You know, they make things happen that just can't be explained.

If we find him,
we find who's putting him up to this.

Moki is wise to be cautious
of Makua.

But I don't think
you'll have any problems.

I doubt his powers
could extend over you, Magnum.

But then,you never know.

[ Magnum ]
It's harvesttime. They're burning the sugarcane fields.

[ T.C. ]
I can almost feel the heat from here.

I can't help if it's harvesttime, T.C.
Would you just keep reading?

Oh, yeah. Uh--

""One of the most important rules
among kahunas is summed up in one of their vows.

"""Learn to know all,
but keep thyself unknown.'

That is why curses or warning
of death prayers--''

Death prayers?

Keep going.
That is why what?

Death prayers?

""That is why curses or warning
of death prayers...

are made known to their victims
through the mana. '"

- Thomas, where'd you get this book?
- I got it from Higgins. What else does it say about kahunas?

[ Sighs ]

""Kahunas look just like you and me.

""According to legend,
the only way to know for sure...

""if someone is a kahuna...

is by the presence of a ruby flash
detectable in the eyes.''

A ruby flash detectable in the--
Why am I reading this nonsense?

Because I wanna know what to expect
when I find Makua.

- Makua?
- Yeah, he's the kahuna that cursed the club yesterday.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Thomas.

You said you was taking me
to some nice, exotic place for lunch.

You ain't mentioned nothing
about looking for no kahuna. Take it easy, T.C.

That's stuff's all folklore anyway.
Oh,yeah?

Well, you tell that to Henry Lewis.

Hi.

Hey, man,
I don't like this place.

What's not to like?

Hi.

I'm looking for a man
named Makua.

I knew it. I knew it.

Uh, could you tell me
where I might find him?

[ T.C.]
Here we go again.

First you promise me lunch.

Then you drag me out here
in the middle of nowhere.

And then you come on like a missionary
with the Peace Corps. T.C.

- Man, we're gonna wind up
getting our butts kicked. - No, we're not.

I know one thing.
That old boy ain't gonna give you the time of day,

much less where you can
find, uh, uh,

a kahuna.

You got a better idea, T.C.?
You know some other way I can find this guy?

Well, I know struttin' up here,
flashing a big smile to these turkeys ain't gonna get you nothing.

Since when are you an expert
on psychology?

Well, since I started getting
messed up in these dumb cases of yours. That's when.

Let me tell you something.
You didn't need to come out here-- Hey, over there.

Huh?
Makua lives down there in the last house.

Thank you very much.
You've been a big help.

I told you I knew
what I was doing.

[ Man Chanting In Hawaiian ]

[ Sighs ]

Uh, sounding like he's working
on a curse.

Maybe we'd just better
take off.

Makua?

[ Chanting Continues ]

Oh, man, I don't dig this.
Mm-mmm.

Are you Makua?

Man, uh-uh.
[ Laughs ]

Makua?

Are you finished?

Now, are you gonna tell me
who's putting you up to this?

Uh, Thomas Magnum,
why don't you and I just get outta here,

'cause I think this man
is about to spring the big one on us.

Come on, Makua.
I know someone's setting you up.

And if you don't tell me who it is,
I'm gonna curse you. Thomas!

[ Chanting Continues ]

He can't do anything to us!
Ha!

Will you stop that?
Charlie Kalo said his powers could never extend over me.

That's great for you.
What about me? You'll be fine.

Over here.
He's heading towards the cane field.

Makua!

Makua!
[ Coughing ]

You ain't gonna find him
in here, Thomas. How 'bout over there?

Barbecued sugarcane.
Let's get out of here. Let's get back.

I'll drink to that.

There's a backfire!

Here, Bill! Here! Over here.
They're over here.

There's a man trapped inside.
We gotta get help.

The news car.
You can use the radio.

Here.

This is KSFB.
I'm Tom Magnum with Christine Richards.

I need a fire truck
and an ambulance immediately.

At the scene is Thomas Magnum,

a private investigator
for the King Kamehameha Club,

which yesterday was cursed
by a kahuna.

Roger. Out.
Mr. Magnum was seen pursuing a man,

a man who may now be trapped
inside the burning field.

Why were you chasing
that man into the field? I wasn't chasing--

Why is it that every time
I turn around, I seem to be running into you?

Maybe it's because we were
following the same leads. I found out that the kahuna--

You all right, T.C.?
Yeah, I'm all right. I just got a few cuts and bruises.

Was this the man you were chasing--
Will you get that camera outta my face? Is your arm all right?

- Who are you and
how are you involved in all this? - Reluctantly.

Why were you chasing a man
into a burning sugarcane field?

What?

- Hey, I'm just doing myjob.
- Oh, good.

Now you are beginning to get
on my nerves.

Now, I'm hot, I'm tired,
and I am sick of seeing you every time I turn around.

Now, cover the fire, cover the race,
cover any damn thing you wanna cover,

but quit following me.

I hope he got out all right.

Medical examiners are removing
the body of Makua Wani,

a self-proclaimed kahuna,

who yesterday cast a curse
over the elite King Kamehameha Club.

Mr. Wani became trapped inside
the burning sugarcane field...

while running from Thomas Magnum,

a private investigator
assigned to the case by the club.

I suppose you thought chasing him
into a fire would make him cooperate.

You're starting to believe her too.
I wasn't chasing him into the fire. He ran into it himself!.

Maybe the curse died with him.
There is no curse, T.C..! It's a setup.

- I still think it's the land.
- I think it's a stroke. Isn't a stroke when you go numb on one side?

Will you stop it
with that already, Rick!

I'm serious.
I'm losing my feeling.

- You're losing your marbles.
- You're normal.

- That's impossible.
- I agree.

Stop it!
All of you, please, stop it!

Now, the club is on the only land...

this side of Waikiki
still relatively undeveloped, right?

Yeah, but I keep telling you,
we got 46--

- Forty-five.
- 45 more years left on our lease.

As long as you can make the payments,
but you can only make the payments as long as the club is making money, right?

Evidently it ain't turning
a profit now, is it?

A profit? This club and that word
have never been used in the same sentence.

You just take it easy, will you, Higgins?
Did you come in and make this club work?

Until I got here, your bookkeepers
were using nothing but red pens.

Someone wants to break the lease!

And there's only one person
who stands to benefit from that-- the person who owns the land.

[ Doorbell Ringing ]

Mr. Magnum?
Yes. Are you the lady I spoke to on the phone?

I told Mr. Dollinger,
so he is expecting you.

He doesn't usually take visitors,

so please, be as brief as possible.

I can't take these
without my beer, Mrs. Macao!

Now you know that!

Calm down, Sidney.
You have a visitor.

[ Man Over TV, Indistinct ]

For his heart.

He takes them with beer?
Oh, it isn't real beer, Mr. Magnum. The cans are filled with water.

Sidney just likes to think
he can still drink like he used to.

Now that's what
I call moviemaking.

Sidney.
Nice, old-fashioned romance.

Sidney!
Hmm?

Sidney, this is Thomas Magnum
from the King Kamehameha Club. Oh.

- How do you do?
- Oh, well.

Thank you, Mrs. Macao.

We'll call you if we need anything.

Sit down.
Oh, thank you.

She's a good nurse,
but she's always underfoot.

- Would you like a beer?
- No, thank you. I don't think so.

[ Shuts TVOff]

Well, uh, that's water.

But this--
[ Clicks Teeth ] is the real stuff!.

Well, in that case,
thank you, sir.

So, you're from
the King Kamehameha Club, eh? How's it doing?

Mabel Preston still a member?

Uh, I don't know. I'm sorry.

She was a gorgeous dish.

Mr. Dollinger, about the land.

Oh, I know.

She's been after that
for as long as I can remember.

- Mabel Preston?
- No, my daughter.

A spoiled little brat who wants
everything made easy for her.

She thinks all you have
to do is own it.

But we didn'tjust own
that land, we worked it.

We dug it, planted, harvested,
sugarcane, pineapple fields---

all of it we did ourselves
with good, honest work.

Your daughter wants the land back?
That's right.

She wants to lease it to someone
who'll build one of those...

big fancy hotels
or a bunch of condominiums.

Well, is she here in Honolulu?

I founded that club for the people.

Notjust the rich,
the people that make this island--

the Hawaiians, theJapanese,
the haoles-- everybody!

They're the ones that give it
the personality...

and romance.

You know how much I charge for
the lease on that land, Mr. Magnum?

About 2,000 a month, sir.
Exactly.!

Not $50,000 a month,

or $1 00,000 a month,
which is what you could charge one of those foreign cartels,

and there have been plenty
of offers, believe me.

But I don't wanna make money
on that land.

I want the King Kamehameha Club...

to provide... happiness.

I-- I love that land, Mr. Magnum.

Because it's for the people I love.

[ Crying ]

So, you think your daughter
wants to break the lease, sir?

Always-- Always after me.

Where does she live, sir?

Always, always.

Mr. Dollinger?

Always, always--

Sir? Uh--

Always after me.

Mrs. Macao.
Did you find out what you needed?

Yes. Could you help me
get in touch with his daughter?

His daughter? Sidney only has
one daughter, Mr. Magnum,

and she's been dead
for nearly 1 5 years.

So, you don't think there is
anything to this whole thing?

No, I think we're letting
superstition get the best of us. What do you mean, we?

I never fell for any of this
curse business to begin with.

Look at you! You're sitting around here
like you're ready to die.

These are legitimate aches
and pains I got, Thomas.

Then how come they only showed up
after the kahuna cursed the club?

I don't know!
Maybe it's just a coincidence.

I'll tell you one thing.

This whole episode has really taught me
something about people's behavior.

That's just wonderful.
Let me ask you something.

Did it teach you how to start getting
members to come back to the club?

No. Think about it.
This guy shows up, he says a few words,

and after that, everything that happens
gets blown way out of proportion.

There I was this afternoon
blaming an 80-year-old man for wanting to break the lease.

Well, it's almost his anyway.

Five more members
wanna quit the club.

Thomas, we're not even making
bar money in here.

To top everything off, the board
wants to cancel the ski surf race.

- Call off the race? What for?
- It's not gonna be much of a race with only two people entered in it.

Everybody wants to stay away
from this place, Thomas. Everybody.

just take a look around.

Everybody.

No, not everyone.

Have a good swim, Charlie?

Oh, it's always a good swim.
[ Chuckles ]

But today it was perfect.

- No crowds.
- No, there's certainly no crowds.

Reminds me of the old days.

- You like it better this way?
- Oh, some days, yes.

Some days, no. But it won't
be empty like this for too long.

Tell me, Charlie, how come none
of this kahuna stuff has bothered you? You're Hawaiian.

It should have an effect on you too.

Well, there are some people
to be afraid of, Magnum.

And there are some people
not to be afraid of.

Makua was somebody not to be feared.

Hey, Magnum,

I told you he don't
have no power over you.

Do you think there is someone
who has power over me, Charlie?

Always someone has power over you.
The thing to consider...

is the power good or bad?

Well, from the looks of things
around here, it's not too good.

- Magnum, Rick has collapsed.
- What?

We were talking.
Well, arguing, I guess.

He suddenly turned white
and dropped to the floor. I didn't know he was really sick.

- Where is he?
-An ambulance is coming to take him to Honolulu General.

He was really sick.
I-- I didn't know.

[ Woman Over P.A.]
Dr. Dan Webb to O.R. One. Dr. Dan Webb.

No, you'll have
to wait out here, please. But he's--

No.

Miriam Hara,you're wanted in X-ray.
Miriam Hara.

Oh, no.
I'm not in the mood for this.

I thought I told you
to quit following me. How is he?

I don't know. He's sick.
And I'm sick of seeing you everywhere I go!

Do you think that the curse
could have had anything to do with his illness?

Oh, you're just not gonna
give up, are you?

You're bound and determined
to get yourself a splashing byline on network news!

Turn that damn thing off!.
Hey, hey, Tom, take it easy.

I'm only trying to do my job.
Ever heard of the First Amendment?

I believe in freedom of speech too.
But I'm sick and tired of you hounding me,

making insinuations
and turning this whole thing into sensationalism!

Now you just stay out of my way.
Doctor?

How is he, Doctor?
Is he gonna be all right?

We don't know yet.
We're still running tests. Can you tell us what's wrong with him?

Something is causing a muscle paralysis.
Right now we're checking him for spinal meningitis.

It seemed like he had a heart attack,
the way he cramped all up real funny and then dropped over.

No, there was no evidence
of coronary arrest.

That's the same thing
that happened to Henry Lewis.

[ T.C.]
So, if it's neither one of them, what do you think it could be?

[ Chattering ]

[ Ringing ]
Hello?

This is Thomas Magnum.
I talked to you this morning about a man named Henry Lewis.

Oh, yes, Mr. Magnum.
I was just going over the data on this case.

Did you come up with anything, Doctor?
Well, so far everything looks pretty normal,

except a severely
deficient potassium count.

Could he have died from that?
He most certainly could,

especially in combination
with exertion of a surf ski race.

Well, I don't understand, Doctor.

Why would his potassium level
be so low? Was he sick?

Well, there could be a number of reasons,
but most likely some type of medication.

Probably a diuretic to control
high blood pressure.

I didn't see any signs of coronary deficiency
in the autopsy, so I don't know why he'd be taking diuretics.

Unless he didn't know he was.
Pardon me?

Uh, nothing. Thanks, Doctor.
You're a lifesaver.

Lifesaver. Hmm.
I'm a coroner.

Check Rick
for a potassium deficiency.

What makes you think he has---
just check him!

Hey, hey, hey, man.
Where you goin'? I'll be back.

[ Magnum Narrating ]
Some of the things that were going on at the club...

might have been coincidence
orjust plain accidents.

But Henry's and Rick's ailments
were neither. Of that I was almost sure.

If I found bottles of diuretics
on Sidney Dollinger's nightstand,

[ Doorbell Ringing ]
he was gonna end up being more than just senile.

Mr. Magnum!
Where's Mr. Dollinger?

He's sleeping right now.
I have to talk to him.

You can't do that!
What do you think you're doing by pushing your way into this house?

I just want to make sure
he's taking his medicine. What?

[ Man On TV, Indistinct ]

I'm surprised you have any left,
Mr. Dollinger.

Who is this man?
Oh, knock it off!.

- Mr. Magnum!
- Oh, yes.

He's the man from my club.

- Your club. I love it.
- So do I.

The only thing you love is that
damn piece of real estate, Mr. Dollinger.

What's he talking about?

What am I talking about?

I'm talking about you trying to bring
down the club to get back your land.

I'm talking about you
killing people with these pills.

Boy, I bought the whole act, the tears,
the weak mind, the whole thing.

That's absurd!
Mr. Dollinger has done nothing!

And that bit about your daughter,
that was a nice touch.

My daughter? What about her?
Has she done something wrong?

Knock off the senility act.
Your daughter's dead and you know it.

Dead?

Well, then what's she doing on TV?

This man was later identified
as Makua Wani, a kahuna.

Sidney, that's your granddaughter
Christine!

Your daughter Sarah is dead.

Remember, Sidney?

That's your granddaughter Christine.

Christine?

- Not Sarah?
- As we reported earlier,

this man was found dead just a few
hours ago in a burning sugarcane field--

Well, she looks like Sarah.

My mistake, Mr. Dollinger.

Good evening, Mr. Magnum.
Would you care to take a drive?

I'd like to talk to you.

I'd prefer to take my own car,
if you don't mind.

Fine.

Wait a minute.

All done?

All done.

Is that the lighter you used to start
the backfire in the cane field?

Uh-huh.

Actually, I was trying
to tie up a loose end,

but since you were there,
I figured I might as well kill two birds with one stone.

Three birds.
I had a friend with me.

Where are we driving?

Nowhere in particular.

I just wanted to talk to you
and... show you something.

All this land belonged to my family.

That is to say, it used to,

until my grandfather decided he was
going to be a great humanitarian and provide for everybody.

Everybody, that is,
except his own family.

So, the club land was
your last chance for survival, huh?

- It's the only piece left.
- And you're killing people to get it.

Oh please, spare the theatrics.

Wars have been fought over land.

I just waged one little battle
to provide for something that was rightfully mine.

Tell me, Christine,
how did you find time to do it all?

Well, it really doesn't take too much
time to put pills into a bottle.

Henry Lewis,
was he just a sacrificial lamb?

Henry was... convenient.

I interviewed him at breakfast
the morning that you two had the race.

And Rick,
was he just convenient too?

Rick?

Rick was just too good.

He had that whole club
almost in the black.

Oh, I couldn't let that happen.

I can't break the lease
unless the club is going under.

So, I guess this is all just
to cleanse your soul, huh?

The club is gonna go under.

When it does, I'm gonna prove
that my grandfather is senile.

Then I'll sell the land
to the highest bidder.

You could have a nice piece
of what I get. Forget it.

Do you know how much money
I'm talking about? Millions.

You could have your own Ferrari,
your own estate.

You wouldn't have to borrow
those things, you know. You could buy them.

That would take
all the fun out of it, Christine.

Suit yourself.

So that's it. You're just gonna
let me go to the police.

Why not?

All you've got on me is a theory
that I gave two men diuretics and one of them died of it.

There are thousands of people
who have access to the kind of medication my grandfather takes.

It's quite common.

And Makua's dead,

so he can't say that
anybody paid him to make that curse on the club.

Okay,you can make things
a little tough for me.

But I can play that game too.

Before it's over, I'll have you
looking like a frustrated private eye...

who was just getting
a little too much pressure from a probing reporter.

You can't prove a damn thing.

But you can.

Yeah,

the picture's probably not much
to brag about, but I'll bet your voice came through loud and clear.

just like a pro.

[ People Cheering ]
[ Man Cheering ] Come on, Murphy.!

[ Woman ]
You can do it.!

[ Whistling ]

- How'd I do?
- Fifty-eighth.

- Fifty-eighth?
- Better than 59th!

Hey, where'd you get
all the money? Bets.

- But I didn't win.
- We know.

[ Laughing ]
Drinks are on me at the club, everybody!

He didn't bet on me.

I saved his life
and he didn't bet on me.

Hey, Magnum.
You did pretty good.

Fifty-eighth isn't
even pretty good, Charlie.

I was talking about the club,
you know.

It's back to normal.
The race is a big success.

Yeah, it's kind of nice to have
the place lively again, huh? Yeah.

I was beginning to miss
the crowd myself.

So, it turned out to be
the news lady, huh? Yeah.

Old man Dollinger's
granddaughter, huh?

I guess she was one of the bad powers
I had over me, huh?

It could have been.
Could have been.

You know, for a while, Charlie,
I thought it was you. Me?

You're always around here,

always making some kind
of ominous point,

but then something about that
just didn't feel right.

Maybe some guiding force
telling you a good power this time?

I don't know, Charlie.

You no believe in kahunas, huh?

Well, the romantic in me
would like to,

but curses, potions,
flashy ruby eyes--

It's fascinating folklore,
but it's tough to really believe. You know what I mean?

Maybe for a haole it is.
