"Cagney and Lacey" star Tyne Daly appears as a reporter who Magnum met in Vietnam and who needs his help tracking down an assassin in Hawaii.
The opening scene in France bears a striking resemblance to Hawaii; a suspension of disbelief is paramount here.
Despite a team of writers, this isn't one of the strongest stories from Season 2. The concept of a "transvestite" hitman is original but the execution is somewhat disappointing. What could have been a real thriller turns out to be mildly exciting. However, female impersonator Christopher Morley is very convincing as the villainous Bannister.
Burr ("The Incredible Melting Man") DeBenning appears as one of this week's guest stars.
There's a great scene with Mack and Rick to enjoy.
7 out of 10. Really hoped this would be a stronger episode.
