Storyline

Mark is having a hard time preparing for a magic show for the child patients- first he misplaces the key of the chest he locked Steve in, then he learns janitor Jim Briggs, the magic talent, was killed surfing; his estranged, wealthy, married twin brother Jeff turns up just then. Mark soon suspects from various details it might just be Jim killed his brother to take his place, which sister-in-law Dina laughs away and suggests to Steve to take fingerprints, and then tells Jim she knew since the first day and was glad to be rid of Jeff; according to Jeff's will it also spares her losing two thirds of the estate to his sons from his first marriage. The Sloanes push on, helped by Jeff's secretary and mistress Teri Deegan... Written by KGF Vissers

Goofs

When Steve is put in the Magic Box in the beginning, through the doorway you can see a patient and a nurse sitting on a bench in the hallway which stretches backwards. When Mark is running to find the key, the hallway is parallel to the room and the bench is facing the front instead of the side as it was earlier. See more »
