- Quotes
Higgins: Magnum. There's nothing quite like the whine of a high-performance engine to disrupt an absolutely delightful afternoon tea. How thoughtful of you.
Magnum: Gee, Higgins, I'm sorry. I just didn't realize...
[chuckles]
Higgins: Didn't think, as usual. I suppose I should be grateful you didn't bring that... that whatever-she-does back here.
Magnum: She is a cocktail waitress, and she's at her motel freshening up.
Higgins: [patronizing tone] Of course.
Magnum: Oh, how is the tea going? Are you dipping scones and baking hot cross buns?
[snickers]
Higgins: The tea, save for your interruption, is *smashing*, absolutely smashing.

It's a crime that she didn't have a more high profile career, as she is an excellent actress and deserved better. She got her big break opposite Jack Nicholson in The Missouri Breaks but failed to capitalize on it, so I assume that the casting couch wasn't her style. That in itself is highly commendable, and regardless, she managed to have a solid career and worked with a lot of great talent over the years.
If you enjoyed her feisty and funny performance in this episode, I would recommend also checking out her appearances in Ironside, Airwolf, Stingray, Midnight Caller, and the horror classic from 1977, The Car, among others.
