"Thomas, welcome back to the Navy." "You've just been recalled." "All right." "I witnessed a drop." "Do you have any hard evidence of any security breach?" "She's in the communications building." "What are the chances of buying you a cup of coffee?" "Alex?" "Andy." "What's going on here?" "I thought I saw Thomas Magnum in uniform." "What are you doing?" "That's my car!" "You're under arrest for suspicion of espionage." "The maximum penalty for such a crime is life imprisonment." "Aloha, ladies and gentlemen." "Good afternoon and welcome to the third annual" "Waikiki to Kaneohe bicycle endurance race." "Hope you're having a nice time here at the Falls of Clyde." "Now, if the contestants will take their vehicles to the starting line." "We'll get underway momentarily." "Come, let's take a picture." "Come." "Come right here." "The start is of the utmost importance." "Now then, on your mark, get set..." "Come on, Rick, you've got to keep it straight." "I'm trying!" "If you don't know how to steer this thing..." "I know how!" "You guys are just throwing off my concentration with all this yapping!" "T.C.:" "Yapping?" "Faster, men!" "We're losing valuable time." "Uh-oh!" "No." "Don't say uh-oh." "The wheel." "The wheel, it's loose." "It's..." "What have you done?" "It wasn't our fault, Higgins." "The wheel fell off." "And I can't ride a bed that's gonna throw me off every 20 feet." "I quit." "Yeah." "Count me out." "I'm finished, too." "And I'm with you." "See you later, Higgins." "Stay right where you are." "Are you telling me that after giving your word, your solemn oath..." "It was hardly an oath." "After making a promise not only to the Carole Kai Bed Race Association and the membership of the King Kamehameha United Charity Drive, but also to the downtrodden youngsters of the Queen Liliuokalani Anglo-Hawaiian Orphanage, you would let a little thing like a broken wheel" "deter you from your duty?" "Well, I guess that sums it all up." "You have no choice." "You're an employee." "Wait a minute, Higgins." "How come the members of the King Kamehameha Charity Drive can't push their own bed in the race?" "You know why." "They're not the athletic sort." "They're more inclined to intellectual pursuits." "Besides..." "They're too old." "The point is, Higgins, the bed's broken." "We can't push it anyway." "We'll fix it." "You fix it." "We've got things to do." "All it needs is a greater degree of velocity, greater maneuverability, a lower center of gravity and..." "The judges." "The what?" "The judges are here to inspect the bed for final approval prior to the race on Sunday." "Magnum, this wheel must be fixed." "I implore you." "Thomas Magnum?" "I'm Thomas Magnum." "Lieutenant Jameson, sir." "I have orders to ask you to come back with me." "Whose orders?" "I'm sorry, sir." "This is a highly classified matter." "If you would just come with me." "It's urgent." "That's absurd." "You can't expect a man to get in the car with a perfect stranger and drive off to God knows where on the slender assurance that it's an urgent matter." "Besides, he already has an urgent commitment." "That's all right, Higgins." "Lieutenant." "Magnum, you can't just take off." "What about the race?" "What about the bed?" "If I'm not back, start without me." "There are all kinds of disadvantages to working for yourself." "Pay isn't steady, you can't count on vacations and you almost never get a raise." "But the advantage is you hardly ever get the feeling you're trapped doing a job you don't wanna do." "But the minute I stepped into that van," "I began to have an uneasy feeling that someone somewhere was about to pull some heavy duty strings." "If you would please, sir." "Walk over by the rail." "Hello, Thomas." "Admiral Hawkes." "I'm sorry for all the cloak and dagger, but I needed to talk to you." "You could've picked up a phone." "Uh-huh." "Thomas, I have a hypothetical question to ask you." "Just for a moment suppose you're me and you discover you have a security leak at Pearl." "Lately you've been losing bits of coded data." "It's serious, but not critical." "So you go about the normal procedure of quietly trying to ferret out the mole." "With all due respect, Admiral, I can't believe you brought me all the way out here to discuss some hypothetical security leak." "Now you learn that in three days time you're going to receive the encoding manuals of a top secret nuclear sub communications system." "If those manuals get into the wrong hands, it could be disastrous." "But you can't trust your own security section because any one of them could be the mole." "Well, what do you do?" "Call the fbi." "No, you wouldn't." "Because the leak could be there, too." "Thomas, welcome back to the Navy." "You've just been recalled." "What?" "What is this?" "It's a little matter of six months time you still owe me." "I lost those six months for you when you wanted to get out early, remember?" "Now I'm taking them back." "You can't make this stick and you know it." "Well, I'm sure going to try." "You drag me out here, you give me this James Bond scenario and then you tell me without my knowledge, you're throwing me back in the Navy." "I need your help." "What can I do?" "You could ask me, for starters." "All right." "I'm asking." "As a favor, will you help me?" "You have the papers, Thomas." "You do what you think is right." "Are you still with us?" "Dad?" "Oh." "I'm sorry." "Did you invite us to lunch to ignore us or..." "No, of course not." "Father of the groom jitters." "Yeah, well, we've all got things to do." "Might as well get to them." "Wait, Andy." "There's something I wanted to give you." "Oh, Dad, you're not gonna do that here, are you?" "You're darn right I am." "Did Andy tell you about this watch?" "No." "Admiral Hawkes." "Well, Commander Magnum." "I was expecting you this morning." "Your office told me I might find you here." "I want you to meet my son, Andy, and my soon-to-be daughter-in-law, Alex McPort." "They're just one week from the altar." "Congratulations." "Thank you, Commander." "Hello." "I didn't realize you were having a family lunch." "We can talk later." "No, no, no." "Nonsense." "I want you to join us." "We're just having a little presentation." "It's all right, really." "We were just leaving." "Some of us have strict hours." "Andy, you can stay five more minutes for a photograph." "If anybody complains, just have them call me." "Alex, I think this is an excellent time for you to begin the old family photo album." "Well, all right." "Why don't you read the inscription to Thomas and Alex?" "Okay." "Everybody ready?" "Smile." "Well, go ahead and read it." ""To Lieutenant Andrew Efraim Hawkes," ""for valor above and beyond the call of duty," ""President Theodore Roosevelt, 3/14/01."" "He was quite a man." "And now Andy's the fourth generation to receive this watch." "It's become a kind of family tradition." "We pass it on just before the wedding." "Thomas, why don't you take a photograph of the three of us?" "Oh, yeah, sure." "Dad, I really have to leave." "Just one photograph." "How long can that be?" "Alex, you don't mind Thomas using your camera, do you?" "No, no, no, no." "It's just a little complicated, that's all." "Oh, I'll give it a try." "Let's look bright." "Thomas, the kids don't have all day." "Oh, yeah." "Are you sure you're using 400 ASA?" "What?" "Oh, wait, hold up the watch." "That's great." "There you go." "Smile." "Thank you." "Come on, I'll get you back." "Well." "Thanks for the lunch, Admiral." "Anytime." "It was a pleasure." "Dad, thank you for the watch." "Son, you're welcome." "Goodbye." "Bye." " Goodbye." "Pretty girl." "She work around here?" "Yes, she's a civilian contractor to the Navy." "Weather operations." "Only been here about six months." "It's been a whirlwind romance." "But, he feels she's the gal for him." "So what can I say?" "I'm just his father." "Thomas, thanks for coming." "Well, when you put it as a favor, how can I turn you down?" "Where do we start?" "With anybody you think might be the mole." "I have a list." "I know what you're thinking." "And you're right." "If Admiral Hawkes had a list of suspects, why wasn't I tracking them down instead of waiting to tail his soon-to-be daughter-in-law?" "I didn't have an answer to that." "But my little voice was telling me that Alex wasn't quite what she appeared to be." "I couldn't put my finger on it, but there was something about her being a few years older than Andy, her whirlwind romance with him and the fact that she'd carry around a complicated camera but didn't appear to know an F-stop from a bus stop." "All that led me to wonder what she was doing here." "And as I followed her in her very expensive car," "I began to wonder how she managed to stretch a civil servant's salary so far." ""Roll on, thou deep and dark blue ocean roll" ""Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain" ""Man marks the earth with ruin" ""Yet his control stops at the shore"" "Lord Byron." "Some things never seem to change." ""The man doesn't choose the sea." ""The sea chooses the man."" "Who said that?" "I'm not sure." "I heard it from my dad." "When Andy came into the service," "I thought it would bring us a lot closer together." "But it seems to have driven a wedge between us." "He's trapped in the lnspector General's Office, yet he won't accept my help in getting him a transfer." "He insists on doing everything the hard way." "Well, we didn't come all the way out here to discuss my son." "What's the bad news?" "I'm not sure it's bad news." "Consider it a report." "Report." "I witnessed a drop." "And?" "How well do you know Andy's fiancée?" "Alex?" "No." "Couldn't be." "How could she possibly get her hands on classified material?" "That's what I need to find out." "I have to get close to her." "She's in the communications building." "Department of Meteorology." "Thomas, report to me tonight." "2200 hours." "Hi." "Commander Magnum." "No, you can just call me commander." "No, it's Thomas." "I heard this is where you worked." "I was hoping I'd catch you here." "Is there something I can help you with?" "No." "No." "I don't know." "I'm kind of stuck here between orders, you know." "I was getting a little bored." "Well, lonely, if you wanna know the truth and I just, thought that if you were stuck here working late," "that maybe you'd like a little company." "Well, I was just about to close up shop for the day." "Oh, just my luck." "Hey." "I've got this buddy in Guam." "Can I use this computer to access in to his?" "It's possible." "If you have the right security clearance." "Do you have security clearance?" "No, no." "I was hoping you will." "No, I'm just a weather lady." "No need for security." "Oh." "Well, since I can't talk to my friend in Guam, what are the chances of buying you a cup of coffee?" "Maybe you didn't understand, but Andy and I are engaged." "I know, it's just a cup of coffee." "Besides, you're not married." "Yet." "A cup of coffee." "A little conversation." "You know, I haven't had anybody to talk to either since I got here, except for Andy, of course." "I'd love to." "You choose the place." "Okay." "Playing on people's emotions to get information was one part of intelligence work I never liked." "The fact that Alex McPort was so likeable and at the same time engaged to my good friend's son made it that much tougher." "Somehow even knowing that the information was vitally important didn't make it any easier." "Then I just decided one day" "I didn't wanna spend the rest of my life being the weather girl in north-forsaken Montana." "North-forsaken Montana?" "Yeah, my word for it." "One more winter and I think I would have turned into the abominable snowman." "So I took a civil service test, passed it, sold all my stuff and moved to Paradise." "Bought a Porsche, fell in love." "Ah, no, it was the other way around." "Porsche was Andy's idea." "You know, I used to worry about what people would think of me so I ended up not doing very much of anything." "Now, here I am, driving a Porsche, marrying a younger man." "Tell me, Thomas, do you think the folks back in north-forsaken would approve?" "So what if they don't?" "Alex?" "Andy." "What's going on here?" "We were just gonna have a cup of coffee." "You wanna join us?" "No." "No, I don't think so." "Alex, let's go." "Andy, please." "This is not..." "Alex, let's go." "Andy." "I don't wish to start anything, Commander, but get your own girl." "Well, I would think you'd have used a little discretion." "Discretion?" "Yes, you take that girl out in the public where anybody could see you." "If you're talking about Andy, he obviously followed her." "Are you telling me that my son just sits in his car, waiting to spy on his fiancée?" "I don't know what Andy's doing." "It's Alex I'm worried about." "Now, I don't think we can give it any more time." "I think we have to pick her up." "On what grounds?" "I witnessed a drop." "Did you see any papers?" "No." "Do you have any hard evidence of any security breach?" "You know what I saw." "You saw one camera case being exchanged for another." "Under very suspicious circumstances." "Suspicious, but not conclusive." "But reasonable." "For questioning." "Thomas, if I pull her in now, she's gonna deny everything and we're gonna lose her and her contacts." "No." "We have to wait." "For what?" "For the manuals to arrive." "And then if someone goes after them and tries to deliver them..." "Not someone." "Alex." "Now, I can't believe you put the whole system in jeopardy on the chance you're gonna catch her in the act." "She's much too smart for that." "It's a risk we're gonna have to take." "Because she's your son's fiancée?" "No." "Admiral, do you really want her contacts?" "Or are you just protecting Andy?" "And what if we're wrong about her?" "What if we're not?" "The manuals arrive tomorrow morning." "We wait." "Hey!" "Hey, come on!" "You win." "Open this vehicle up." "Lieutenant Jameson." "I caught this guy breaking into that Mercedes." "What are they doing?" "That's my car!" "I'm sorry, Commander, you'll have to come with us." "You're under arrest for suspicion of espionage." "Look, I can't go into details..." "But this is all a big mistake." "I have to talk to Admiral Hawkes." "You had your one phone call, sir." "He didn't answer." "You know that." "Well, that's not really the Navy's problem, is it, Commander?" "You don't get one dime and that's it." "Well, well, well." "They locked up the traitor at last." "Who are you?" "Me?" "Just a guy who works nights, that's all." "A car thief." "Something like that." "Who bypasses all of Waikiki to sneak onto a military base and hotwire officers' cars." "Everybody's got their specialty," "I guess." "I boost cars, you boost state secrets." "Maybe." "Maybe you weren't really stealing that Mercedes." "Maybe you were planting something on me." "That's good." "That's real good." "Put the blame on somebody else." "Only it's not gonna stick." "See, as soon as the local cops come and get me, I'm bailed out." "You just got in the way of my work, pal." "I'm a repo man." "Had to sneak on the base." "That's where the car was I was supposed to pick up." "Then why'd you run?" "Well, I thought you were the owner of the Mercedes." "I usually don't stick around for small talk." "Maybe you planted something on me." "That's a good one." "You might try that, though, on the next guy they bring in here." "He might not have an alibi." "Commander Magnum, you should be aware this is merely a preliminary investigation to determine if a general court martial is warranted." "Now, have you had an opportunity to consult with" "Lieutenant Commander Banks, your defense attorney?" "Yes, sir." "Very well, then let's proceed." "Lieutenant Commander Dantley." "Commander, you don't deny that it was your car in which the top secret silicon communications chips and support data was found?" "No, I don't deny they were there." "Where did the data come from?" "I don't know." "They were planted in my car." "Are there other Navy personnel involved?" "No." "I mean, I don't know and I'm not gonna find out unless I can talk to Admiral Hawkes." "Is Admiral Hawkes your contact?" "Do you report to him?" "I don't report to anybody." "You know, Commander, the evidence against you is pretty damaging." "We are questioning Admiral Hawkes now." "Anything you can tell us about him would go a long ways toward helping you." "Very well." "I have no other choice, but to recommend that charges of espionage against you be referred to a general court-martial for trial." "And I might remind you, Commander, the maximum penalty for such a crime is life imprisonment." "Now if you think of anything you'd like to tell us." "Well, what is this?" "You're not doing the talking here." "We're talking?" "I got half the base thinking I'm implicated with you and the Admiral, just because I've been seen with the two of you." "I'm not real interested in your problems." "As far as I'm concerned, you're the lowest life-form there is." "A traitor to your country and I intend to give you what you deserve." "For the sake of my country." "And for the sake of my own good name." "You think you can take me on?" "Fine." "Come on." "At least this ought to clear your good name." "One thing I learned in the Navy is what happens to your mind when you're put in a survival situation." "Every image and sound is slowed down." "Every reaction is considered, weighed carefully, until you know, for sure, what your move is going to be." "Because if your first shot fails, you may not get a second chance." "Lieutenant, everything okay?" "Lieutenant!" "Call the gate." "Another thing I've learned about survival, if your first move is successful, keep going as fast and as hard as you can." "Don't look back until you're out of danger." "I knew I had to start at Alex's apartment." "She was the most likely suspect." "But my little voice kept nagging at me." "Maybe Alex had arranged the plant in my car." "But who had turned in Admiral Hawkes?" "If there was a clue in her apartment, it was going to be hard to find." "There was nothing out of place." "The requisite family photograph." "But no telephone/address book lying around." "No bank statements." "No junk mail." "No childhood mementoes." "Everything had a manufactured quality to it." "Even the college diploma in Communications and Broadcast Journalism." "It was as if Alex McPort was born yesterday." "Which, I realized, was exactly the case." "Nice place." "Did you learn that in weathergirl school?" "You're not going to call the police, are you?" "Because then we'll have a whole lot of explaining to do." "Like who we really are." "You're very good." "I'd say fbi." "Hello, Operator." "May I help you?" "I thought so." "Which means our security leak has to be the one person you got close to." "Andy." "I don't suppose you'd like to tell me where he is?" "This is your scenario." "You tell me." "Well, I have some theories." "I figure after our little scene last night, he had a friend plant some very incriminating evidence in my car." "Then he must've waited to get the encoding manuals the minute they arrived on base and their disappearance would be reason enough for the Navy to question Admiral Hawkes." "Now, why didn't you tell him his own son was involved?" "He had no need to know." "No need to know." "How can you people operate like that?" "Before you start throwing around accusations, Commander, you might want to consider that your interference has just cost me six months of deep cover work." "And has probably cost our country its most vital communication link." "All the way back to Admiral Hawkes' office," "I wrestled with my emotions." "I knew that I'd been set up." "That someone had tipped off the base police about the silicone chips in my car and that someone had kept Admiral Hawkes busy so he couldn't help me out." "But you learn to expect that kind of stuff in my business." "What was bothering me was that Admiral Hawkes had been set up by his own son and I hadn't seen it coming." "Yes, sir." "We are related." "He's my son." "Well, apparently, the encoding manuals were breached from the lnspector General's Office sometime early this morning." "And the personnel that I had working on the case were temporarily indisposed." "Yes, sir." "Agent Karnes is right here." "Very well, sir." "Goodbye." "We've been ordered to do nothing." "The Shore Patrol and the local police are covering all the airports and the boat basins." "And you are to standby for a call from your director." "While Andy transfers the encoding manuals over to the other side?" "Not a chance." "I was sent here to find whoever was selling us out and to bring him in, and I intend to do exactly that before the trail gets cold." "You're talking about his son." "I'm talking about my job." "Is that all you people care about?" "Your job?" "She's right, Thomas." "Perhaps if I had done my job as a father better." "I'm sorry, Admiral." "I just don't buy that." "Whatever Andy did, I'm sure he did it for his own reasons." "And I wish to God I knew what they were." "Well, maybe we can find out." "With all due respect, Admiral," "I don't think I can be ordered to do anything anymore and I think we should try and find him before he makes the situation worse." "You said something about a trail?" "It was your interference that blew this investigation in the first place." "I work alone." "I'll find him myself." "With all due respect, Commander..." "Oh, I guess I can't call you that anymore, but, with all due respect, just how do you plan to do that?" "I've been finding people on this island for six years." "I'll manage." "Admiral." "In six years I'd learned there are all kinds of ways of finding people." "Looking up records, talking to friends and family, frequenting known hangouts." "But the best way, when you could work it, was to let someone lead you to your suspect." "I was surprised that Alex," "Agent Karnes, hadn't learned that trick of the trade." "What did you do?" "Show the desk clerk your badge and threaten him with 40 years in Leavenworth?" "It worked." "I thought you were out finding Andy on your own." "I am." "Oh, don't pay any attention to me." "Tell me something." "Just how far would you have gone to get Andy's contacts?" "All the way to the altar?" "I'm a professional doing my job." "A job that includes marrying a guy just to get the information you want?" "I think you've been watching too many Ingrid Bergman movies." "Oh, and you." "You're so different?" "The invitation to dinner." "The oh-so-calculated charm." ""I'm bored, a little lonely, just a cup of coffee."" "How far would you have gone, just for information?" "What's the point in fighting about it?" "It's all screwed up anyway." "There's nothing here." "Yes, there is." "We're just not seeing it." "You have a pencil?" "No." "A quarter?" "What?" "A quarter." "A dime." "A Susan B. Anthony dollar." "Anything." "Maybe." "What for?" "There's a page missing from this directory." "Somebody wrote on it and left an impression on the next page." "A bobby pin." "A bobby pin!" "Stand clear." "What?" "Don't!" "I thought that went out with Dick Tracy." "Mmm-hmm." "What does it say?" "We've got to get back to Pearl." "I can run this through the cryptographic computer." "Let's hope it's a breakable code, not some sort of..." "It's breakable." "The top line's a code." "The bottom's the answer." "I know that." "But the bottom part doesn't make any sense." "The Carol Kai Bed Race." "Come on." "What?" "The Carol Kai Bed Race." "The obstacle course at 4:30." "Now, you can go with me or go back and play with your computer." "I'm gone." "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen." "Welcome to the first annual Carol Kai..." "I can't believe that Magnum is on Maui the day of the big race." "Not to worry, Higgins." "We've got everything under control." "Yeah." "We're not exactly helpless without him." "Nevertheless, it is irresponsible, thoughtless, and completely unprofessional." "In short..." "There he is." "I don't believe it." "Nice going." "Magnum?" "T.C., pay attention, man!" "Let's go." "There's somebody I'd really like to talk to." "Who is he?" "The guy who planted those papers in my car." "Andy's contact." "Did they teach you about pincer movements at that weathergirl school?" "Let's go." "I'll take Andy." "You..." "Oh, no!" "I knew we could do it." "We still have the semis and finals." "T.C.?" "I thought I saw Thomas Magnum in uniform." "We'd better queue up for the semi-finals." "Let's go." "Andy." "Son, it has to stop here." "Give me those manuals." "For whatever reason you've done what you've done," "I'll stand by you." "I promise you." "How utterly touching." "I wish I could stay and hear the rest." "But, right now, I think you'd just better give me that case." "Andy, don't." "Now." "Hey!" "No!" "Hold it!" "Call an ambulance!" "It is him!" "It can't be!" "All right!" "Only one more race." "Buck up, chaps." "We're nearly there." "Okay, tell me, we didn't see it." "Oh, it's the heat." "It's gotta be an optical illusion." "Yeah, right." "What're you talking about?" "Come on!" "Last race!" "You're going to be all right?" "I'll be fine." "Ready, Admiral?" "One moment." "Son," "why did you do it?" "I don't know really." "Maybe it was the money, maybe the excitement or..." "Just never thought I could be who you wanted me to." "Reach into this pocket." "You left that in your locker." "You know, you're damn good, Thomas." "If you ever want back in..."
