9/10
There are no little fish: A Magnum O'Henry for sure
1 May 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Not sure what the other reviewers saw but this was a chance taking episode. Magnum hadn't taken a turn yet to an almost all tongue-in-cheek detective series; and chose to deal with a serious issue here, and yes I will include a huge spoiler. Throughout 80 percent of the episode it appears that Saul and Leena Greenberg are refugees from a WW II concentration camp who have happily relocated to Hawaii and run a small but thriving dry cleaning business. Suddenly they are being stalked by a group intent on kidnapping them. It's the Nazis screams Leena after Saul is taken. Magnum decides to help and brings Higgins and Rick along. Unfortunately for Magnum, he finds too late he is backing the wrong group. Leena and Saul are the Nazis who have been dodging Israelis bent on retuning them to stand trial for war crimes: Bazinga. A very worthy episode for a series trying to find a direction.
