All language subtitles for Magnum P.I. s04e19 On Face Value.eng

Thomas, how do you
really feel about me?

l like you.

You think
l'll ever walk again? Sure.

What's happening?
Just stay down and hold on!

Why do these guys take a shot
at me just because l took some pictures of them?

The point is two men
are trying to kill you.

And they're gonna kill you,
too, and l'm not gonna let that happen.

(Magnum)
Where are they?

You sent me into a situation
that could have got me killed.

[gun firing]

(Magnum)
One of the best things about living in paradise...

is that when you get
a couple of days off...

you don't have to go
someplace else to have fun and relax.

Instead, you can concentrate
on some of the finer things in life. Like art.

It comes in many shapes,
and forms and textures. You can find it anywhere.

Even in the sand.

And no matter how old
or young you are...

there's an incredible
feeling of pride...

when you create something with
your own two hands.

No!
lt's my castle.

Yeah, but if you pour water,
aren't you gonna ru--

All right, go ahead.

Fix it.
What?

Fix it.

All right. All right.

But you gotta promise
you're not gonna pour water on it again.

Now go get me some wet sand.
Way down by the water. Way, way down there.

lf l get my own bucket
and shovel, can l play too, please?

l am creating
a work of art here, Carol.

l prefer not to be disturbed
by your juvenile behavior.

ls it some kind of
detective's holiday?

Charlie Chan's birthday.

A little R and R
after a tough ca-- That's ruined.

Who's the kid?

Oh, that's Keoki's nephew.

Keoki had to run an errand
for Rick so l promised him l'd watch him.

Well, l just dropped by
to tell you not to drive for a while.

What?
The police will probably stop you.

Good luck
on your castle, Thomas.

Wait. Wait a minute.

Now, wait a minute, Carol.

Why are the police
going to stop me?

l don't know. Something
about unpaid tickets. Parking tickets.

Wait! Wait. Wait.

l don't have any parking
tickets, except the ones you fixed for me.

You didn't fix them for me?
But l was helping you.

l was working for
the DA's office! Yes, that's right,

Boy, did the DMV sure get
ticked off when they're six months overdue.

You know what?
They issued an arrest warrant for you today.

You were supposed to
take care of those a long time ago.

Thomas, l, you know, l....

l put them in my file and l
forgot about them. What can-- l'm sorry. l really am.

Sorry? lf those have been
put away for six months...

l mean, with late penalties,
that could be-- $653.49.

However, if you pay it
they'll drop the warrant.

l don't have that
kind of money! You said you'd handle it.

Now, you gotta. You promised.
l'm going to. l promise.

lt's just that the paperwork
could take me a long time...

and l'm so tied up
with this case right now. What case?

Oh, it's just a
little surveillance.

Since when did you get
involved in surveillance?

Well, it's kind of a
special case. l got a tip about a fencing operation...

in a warehouse on Kaliawa,
and there may be somebody involved...

who l tried to prosecute
last year. Let the police handle it.

l did.
By the time they get to it, it'll be another two weeks.

Apparently they don't take me
too seriously, so l'm gonna handle it myself.

You see,
l just don't have the time.

Gee, Carol...

maybe if l handled
your surveillance you could handle my parking tickets?

That's a good idea.

Just simple surveillance?

Very. Hey, it's just,
watching to see...

who's running the operation.

And you will take care of
my parking tickets?

What are friends for?

Thomas, you be careful.

What's that supposed
to mean? Just be careful.

lt could be
a little dangerous. Carol, now wait a minute!

ln fact,
it might be a lot dangerous.

You better be prepared
for the worst.

Carol!

No!

(Magnum)
Most people think a private investigator's life...

is filled with danger
and excitement.

Sometimes it is...

but most of the time
it's about as dangerous...

as watching Keoki's nephew
destroy a sandcastle.

Take surveillance.

It's one of the more boring
aspects of the job.

Especially when
nothing happens.

I was starting to get the
feeling that Carol's source was either wrong or too late.

[camera shutter clicking]

Now, the trick of surveillance
was knowing when something was a dead end.

And knowing just the right
time to call it a day.

Then again,
it pays to be patient.

l think we got a problem here.

(Magnum)
I've always tried to keep my temper...

especially when it comes
to business.

But some things you just
can't ignore. Those guys had demolished my camera...

and missed my head by inches.

I was mad.

[gunshots]

(Magnum)
But what the hell, it was only a camera.

And maybe these guys were
just trying to scare me off.

When I write my book
on being a first-class private investigator...

rule number 168
is going to be.:

If you're getting chased,
you should be in a fast car.

Postscript to rule 168.:

No matter how fast
your car is, there can always be one that's faster.

No matter how much
I want to deny it...

there's something exhilarating
about a confrontation.

Especially when you know
you're in the right.

And especially
when you're prepared.

I'm sorry, Thomas.

And l did try to get you
released sooner...

but when a
shooting's involved, they have all these reports--

What about my
investigator's license?

l'm going to do everything
l can to keep them from pulling it.

Like you told me
how dangerous this was?

l told you it might--
You didn't tell me enough.

You sent me into a situation
that could have got me killed.

Or somebody else.

l'm sorry.

That makes it okay?
You're sorry? Well, tell that to Emily Jackson.

(woman over PA)
Dr. Gray to ICU stat. Dr. Gray to ICU stat.

Doctor?
What can l do for you?

l wondered how
Emily Jackson's doing.

You a relative?

Medical information can be
given only to members of the immediate family.

l'm her brother.

Most of her injuries
are minor. They'll clear up in a few days.

But one of them
has us concerned. Her legs.

She has no feeling in them.

Now, l've called in
a specialist.

l'm sorry to have to
tell you this...

but l'm afraid your sister
may never walk again.

Excuse me.

(Magnum)
No matter how hard I tried...

there were two phrases
I couldn't get out of my mind.

''Especially when
you're right. ''

''Especially when
you're prepared. ''

If I hadn't been so
''prepared, '' Emily Jackson wouldn't be in the hospital.

Good morning, Magnum.

Here's Robin's camera,
Higgins. lt's ruined.

Save the speeches.
l've heard them before.

Cameras can be replaced.

Carol called me
this morning.

l simply came by
to see if l could be of any assistance.

May l have a
cup of coffee, Magnum?

A similar incident happened
to me, you know.

lt was during the
North African campaign.

lt was one of the
darkest nights l can ever remember.

l was on sentry when l heard
someone screaming and running toward me.

As was my duty,
l shouted ''halt''.

l couldn't see a bloody thing
and l couldn't risk a charge on the camp.

l was forced to fire.

When he fell,
the light from our camp finally illuminated him.

He was a British soldier
from another regiment.

Magnum,
where are you going? To the hospital.

l wasn't finished.

Hi.
How's it going?

Did l wake you?

No. The nurses pump so much
dope into me all the time...

l don't know when l'm
awake and when l'm dozing.

You know what l mean?
Yeah.

Think you could talk
to them about that?

Yeah. l guess so.

Where's your badge
and white coat?

l know Gonzo on Trapper John
dresses like that,

but l thought
that was only on the tube.

Yeah. l think so.

So, how am l doing, Doc.
Getting any better?

l--

That bad, huh?

No, you're fine.
Well, you're gonna be fine.

[phone ringing in distance]

l gotta go.

Wait. Aren't you even going--

Well, how's it going,
Thomas?

l love baseball.

Listen...

l heard about the accident.
lt made the six o'clock news.

When l was 10 years old...

my aunt Margaret took me
to a Tiger game.

Thomas, listen,
we know how you feel. Was l 1 1?

No, l was definitely 10
years old because it was August of 1956...

and the Tigers were still
in the pennant race.

That's real nice. Thomas--

lt got to be
the ninth inning...

and the Tigers were down 4-0,
there were two outs.

There was a man on first
and second and Harvey Kuenn was up and...

Bullet Bob Turley
was on the mound, just throwing BBs.

Well, Harvey lined
a single through the hole.

You know, there's nothing
like the sound of a clean hit.

Thomas--
There's just no other sound like it. lt's...

poetry.
Thomas--

That scored a run and it
brought up Al Kaline.

Well, the crowd's going crazy
and l dropped my snow cone...

down the back of the guy
in front of me, and Bullet Bob...

he rears back and
he throws one right by Al's head.

Well, it seemed like...

l don't know, 10 minutes
before Al finally picked himself up.

And he digs in...

and Turley is just...

looking at him.

And then he lets go with
another high, inside fastball.

(Carol)
Hey, Thomas!

Hey, Thomas,
l've been looking for you. Yeah, so what happened?

l got the pictures developed.
What pictures?

No, what happened to Al?
Not Al. Jimmy and Mark Kiedash.

Hey, l heard about
those guys. Pretty rough.

Thomas, what happened
to Al Kaline? Did he win the game?

Huh?

The game?

Al stroked one
inside the line. The Tigers won.

[exclaiming]

Thomas, l had no idea that
the guys in that warehouse were the Kiedash brothers.

l thought
they were in prison. They got out a year ago.

Come on, have a seat.

What were they in for?

They beat a man to death
with a bumper of a '51 DeSoto.

Why were they out of jail?

Because they
served their time. What there was of it.

Believe me, Thomas,
l didn't know.

l thought that the guy
that l sent you to watch was Ozzie Franklin.

He's a small-time fencer
of stolen cars.

But these guys,
they're into a whole new line of work.

They rip off computer secrets.

These guys don't sound
exactly like the computer type.

They aren't.

They go to computer companies
and they muscle technicians...

into handing over secrets
and then they sell them.

We think to the Japanese.
But up until now, we didn't know much about them.

So you see, finding them
at that warehouse, that was just dumb luck.

lt was bad luck.

[people chattering]

l know somebody
who'd agree with you.

Well, now that l know who
we're dealing with, l can get the police involved.

l'm gonna start working
on a court order.

Hey, Thomas,
where are you going?

(Magnum)
One of the best things about having friends...

is that you've got someone
to talk to when you're in trouble.

You don't even have to
talk about what you're talking about.

If you know what I mean.

Now, I don't know why
I was thinking about baseball...

but I do know...

that I'd forgotten the lesson
Al Kaline had taught me back in 1956.

Pick yourself up,
brush yourself off...

and get back in the box.

Hi.

l noticed you didn't have
any flowers, so l....

You're not a doctor,
are you?

No, l'm not.

Then who are you?
What do you want?

A friend. l hope.

Look, they may keep me
doped up around here,

but l can still recognize
my friends and l don't know you.

But that's all right.

You're the only visitor
l've had, so l guess l can't be choosey.

l'm the one
who shot your car.

And you're here in my room?

You know that
l can't move my legs, mister?

Yes.

You here to
ease your conscience?

No, l just wanted to know
how you were feeling.

Get out.

l want to help.

l don't want your help!
And l don't....

Just take your flowers
and your phony guilt and get out of here!

Get out of here!
Get out of here!

Will you go!
Stop looking at me!

[sobbing]

l hate you!

[slapping]

My Lord, what happened?

lt's nothing.

l'm sorry.

Well, your guest will
have to leave.

l'm sorry.
l really....

Can l get you anything?

l'd kill for a television set
and a pack of cigarettes.

(Magnum)
I wasn't sure why I went back to the hospital.

Except that maybe
Emily was right.

Maybe it was to
ease my conscience.

But once I was there,
I know why I stayed.

There was just
something about her.

I guess it was her refusal to
feel sorry for herself...

that made me
want to stick around.

So Ruby says to me,
''You get one more customer asking for you...

l'm going to have to
change the name to Emily's Beauty Emporium.''

Oh, yeah?
You must be pretty good. Best there was in Saginaw.

Guess that ain't saying
a whole lot.

[people chattering
on television set]

What?
l don't know.

lt just hit me,
l can't be a beautician no more.

But, hey, we got to have
a positive attitude. l'll walk again, right?

Right.

And if l don't, what the hell,
l'll just sue you for a couple of million.

l'm only joking.

Visiting hours were over
a long time ago.

Right. l'll be back
first thing in the morning.

Promise?
l promise.

Listen, if it's not
too far out of your way...

could you bring me some
Yellow Zonkers and a couple of Yankee Doodles?

What are they?
No, never mind. l'll find them.

(man on TV)
Do you want to continue for $500?

Okay.

Question number two--

[switching channel]

[woman chattering over PA]

Doctor?
Yeah?

How's Emily doing?
Oh, her minor injuries are healing nicely.

But still no feeling
in her legs.

What did the specialist say?

Medically,
nothing seems to be wrong.

But that's often the case
with spinal injuries.

There can be trauma
we can't detect.

But there's a chance that
she could get better?

Hey, never give up hope.

We'll get her into therapy
so her muscles don't weaken.

Look, if there's anything
l can do to help.

Well, l don't think Emily
needs the hospital anymore.

Actually, the best thing
for your sister is to get out of here.

But she needs care
and therapy.

lt will take a lot of
hard work.

But mentally....
Mentally, the benefits will be tremendous.

You think you and your family
can handle that?

**[Classical music playing]

[applauding]

That's pretty good, Higgins.

How long have you been
standing there?

About 16 bars.

What do you want?

l have a favor to ask.
lt's....

lt's a big favor.
But it means a lot to me,

and l want you to consider it
very sincerely before you answer.

Emily...

the girl in the accident...

is being released
from the hospital in a couple of days...

and l want to move her
here to the estate.

She can't walk, Higgins.

And she needs therapy
and someone to take care of her.

lt's quite all right.
She doesn't have anyone else.

Her parents are dead.

She doesn't have
any friends on the island. She's just all alone.

Magnum, l said
it's quite all right.

l'll fix up a room on
the first floor so she won't have to worry about stairs.

[clock ticking]

[crickets chirping]

Just one question.

Are you doing this to help
the young lady or yourself?

Both, l guess.

[clock bell tolling]

l suggest
you be careful, Magnum.

Don't get too caught up
in all this.

Higgins, the...

story you were telling me
about the British soldier that you shot...

was that a real one?

His name was Roger Thornby.

Just a poor chap
who couldn't stand the days of waiting...

while bombs flew
over his head.

And l killed him.

l never forgave myself.

He had a family.

When l returned home,
l went to see them.

He had a wife and
young Roger, Jr.

l started going
to see them every day.

Making sure
they had enough to eat.

Doing chores
that needed to be done.

l was trying to
replace the life l took with my own.

Well, that's understandable.

Quite.
Or so l thought at the time.

But l eventually came
to realize that...

l was doing it more for myself
than for them.

l became more of a burden
than a help. A reminder.

A painful reminder.

So, finally l left
and never saw them again.

l continued to send
what money l could.

And only stopped
a few years ago...

when Thornby's son
finished university.

l'm going where?
Robin Masters' estate.

That way l can be sure
you're taken care of and help you with your therapy.

Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

What's the matter?
l hardly know you.

l mean, what if you're some
weirdo and you take me to this creepy old estate...

and turn me into
your prisoner or slave?

Emily, l think you've been
watching too much television.

You're going to live in
the main house with this nurse we hired and Higgins.

l live in the guest house.
Who's this Higgins guy?

Well, he sort of
runs the place. He's a nice guy.

Well, l mean, sometimes
he yells too much, but, well see...

he and l have had
our differences, but basically....

The important thing is that
he's always gracious to his guests. You'll like him.

Let me see your face.

What?

l'm a face interpreter.
lt's sort of a hobby.

l can see if someone's
telling the truth. Come here.

This used to drive them crazy
at Ruby's Beauty Emporium.

l'll bet.

Okay,
you're telling the truth.

(Magnum)
Here we are.

Look at this car.
l could die. l could really die.

There we go.

Now, be careful.
ls an estate the same as a mansion?

Kinda. Watch it.

There you are.
You comfortable?

You bet.
Good.

Thank you.
Thanks.

l guess your car
was totaled, huh? My car?

Oh, that wasn't my car.
l borrowed it from a neighbor.

lt's a good thing
he had insurance.

[giggling]

(man)
Come on, man, move it! Get that thing outta the way!

Get it out of here!

Can we get out now?

The doctor said one hour
of exercise in warm water.

l think he meant in a Jacuzzi.
Aren't there sharks in here?

No.

l was really bored one day,
so l watched a documentary.

lt was about how sharks are
attracted to certain kind of movements...

and Thomas,
l'm moving just like a wounded seal.

Well...

l don't think the sharks
around Oahu are used to seeing any kind of seals.

Besides, there's a great,
big reef out there.

And this tidal pool
was built a long time ago to keep sharks out...

and sea turtles in.

The local people
used to raise them for food in here.

Thomas.
What?

You got a girlfriend
or anything?

No.

Well, don't give up women
on my account.

lt's not right you spending
all your time with me just 'cause you feel sorry for me.

l don't feel sorry for you.
l like spending time with you.

You think
l'll ever walk again?

Sure.

No, l mean really-deep-down-
in-your-heart believe?

And l want your face
for this one.

Oh, come on, Emily.
Let me have it.

l told you l believe
you'd walk again. l want the truth.

l think you've had
enough therapy for one day.

Thomas.

l really believe
you'll walk again.

l see hope.
Lots of it.

But you have your doubts.

Come in, you two!

Lunch is ready!

lt's all right, Thomas.
Hope's good enough.

All right, let's go.

Here we go.

You really didn't have to
go to all this trouble, Mr. Higgins.

Thomas and l could have picked
up some burger and fries on the way to the hospital.

Burgers and fries are hardly
satisfactory nutrition for someone who's recuperating.

How do you really feel
about me being here, Mr. Higgins?

Well, it certainly cuts
the sting out of having to live with Magnum.

Does that mean you don't mind?

Yes.

Come here.
What?

She wants to read your face.

l beg your pardon?

lt's kind of like
a lie detector, and she's pretty good at it.

My God.

Thanks, Mr. Higgins.
l just wanted to make sure l wasn't a burden on anyone.

[tires screeching]

Emily, get down.
What's happening?

Just stay down and hold on.

[radiator hissing]

(Higgins)
It wasn't your fault.

Look, l appreciate what
you're trying to do, Higgins, but you don't understand.

You couldn't possibly
have known they were after you.

That's not the point.

The point is that,
no matter what you say or what l say,

if l hadn't lost my temper
that girl wouldn't be sitting in a room right now...

watching TV
from a wheelchair.

[intercom buzzes]

Yes?
(Carol) Thomas?

Come on in, Carol.

Magnum, your attitude
is admirable, but perhaps ill-considered.

Be that as it may,
the point is two men are trying to kill you.

You don't do yourself
or Emily any good if you don't protect yourself.

You must consider
keeping a gun with you. l put that away.

l got here
as soon as l could. You got the pictures?

lt's nice to see you, too,
Thomas. How are you, Jonathan?

This just keeps bugging me.

Why do these guys take a shot
at me just because l took some pictures of them?

Camera shy?
Very funny.

Perhaps you photographed
something they don't want seen.

(Carol)
Like what?

Maybe this is something.
There's a logo on the briefcase.

And some initials.

Y. K.
May l see it?

That's the logo of
the lkeguchi Corporation.

A Japanese electronics firm.

Yoshio Kawatormari.
What?

Y.K.

He's the vice president of
the lkeguchi Corporation.

At least he was until he
turned up dead here two weeks ago.

And the Kiedash brothers
inherited his briefcase.

He must have been buying
computer secrets from the brothers...

and the deal went sour
and they killed him.

That's why they're after you.

l gotta get these
to the police.

l'll walk you to the door.

Carol.

Hmm?

About the last few days.

Oh no, l deserved it.

l was wrong.
lt was my-- No, l was upset...

and l'm afraid
l took it out on you.

No, l should have given
you more information, l was wrong.

lt was my--
Carol, please?

Could you at least
let me apologize?

Do you always
have to have the last word?

Me?
Yes.

Do you know that you--

l accept your apology,
Thomas. Thank you.

But it really was my fault.
Good night.

(Emily)
Thomas.

Emily. What are you doing up?

l'm worried about you.
Especially after what happened this afternoon.

This is what l do
for a living.

lf you're thinking about
going after those guys because of what happened to me.

Don't, please.
l don't want revenge. l'm out of it.

The police are gonna
handle it. Now, you better get to bed.

We got a lot of work
to do tomorrow. Give me your face, Thomas.

Emily.
Please, l really need to see it.

Thomas, how do you
really feel about me?

l like you.

Could you ever...

l mean, if all this
hadn't happened and we had met somewhere else,

do you think you would have
wanted to spend time with me?

Sure.

Thanks, Thomas,
for everything.

Right, l'll see you
tomorrow morning, eight o'clock.

Feeding time
for the sharks, right? Right. Good night.

Morning, Higgins.

She's gone.
She left at six this morning.

What?

How?

l helped the taxi driver
lift her into the car.

And you didn't tell me?
She asked me not to.

Actually, begged would be a
better description.

Magnum, wait.
Don't go after her.

You had no right.

l think she left
because she's in love with you...

and feared
you didn't feel the same way.

Did she say that?
No, l just presumed from what she said--

Don't presume, Higgins.
You can't replace what Emily has lost...

with your life.
She has to go out on her own now.

Think of Emily, Magnum,
not yourself.

(Magnum)
I guess nobody likes to think of themselves...

as selfish or self-centered.

I know, ever since the
accident, I believed I was only concerned about Emily.

But what Higgins had said
brought the truth home to me.

I'd been thinking
only about myself.

I hadn't even bothered to
ask Emily where she lived.

She lives on Waiaka Road.

You work fast.
l found out this morning.

Along with some
other information.

The car that Emily was driving
when she had the accident....

Yeah?

She borrowed it
from the Kiedash brothers.

(Magnum)
My dad once told me...

there's a connection
between people called trust.

That no matter
how bad things get...

you can count
on that connection to pull you through.

What he didn't tell me was
that when someone you care about lies to you...

that connection
is very painfully broken.

I didn't want to lose
that connection with Emily.

I was ready to accept
almost any explanation from her.

Until I saw how complete
her lie really was.

You could walk all along,
couldn't you?

So, big deal.
A lot of people do.

You lied to me.
Sorry.

That's not good enough.
Well, it'll have to do.

l don't have to justify
anything to you. l mean, what do you know, anyway?

You ever eat in soup kitchens,
sleep in bus stations? No.

You sleep in a big estate and
you eat fancy foods with names nobody can even say.

So just leave me alone.
This isn't you.

Yeah, well,
then who is it? Emily.

Look at me!
Look at me!

They beat you up.

Don't you get it?
They were after me, not you.

They would've killed me,
except they need me to get to you.

What are you talking about?
They wanted me to call you at six.

Tell you l was in trouble.
When you came they were gonna be here waiting for you.

So where were you going?
To the police station, then the airport.

l thought l'd come clean with
the cops and get the hell out of this paradise.

Where are they?

l don't know.
The hell you don't.

You were working for them.
l just ran errands.

l was just lookout
once in a while. Where are they?

l don't want to tell you,
okay? You'll get hurt.

Just let the police
handle it.

There's no time for that.
Look, Emily.

They're gonna kill you, too,
and l am not gonna let that happen.

Where are they?

Thomas.

You may find this
hard to understand, but...

no guy ever treated me
like you did.

You took care of me.

You answered my dumb questions
without making fun.

God, you have the best face
l ever read.

l didn't lie to you.

l didn't get the feeling back
in my legs until we got to the estate.

l was just so afraid.

lf you thought that
l was getting better that you would...

you'd send me away.
l'd never see you again.

Oh, Emily.

l mean, if you got better
l wouldn't stop caring for you.

l'd still be your friend.

You believe me?

l do.

Where are they?

(Magnum)
A person makes a 100 decisions every day.

Some you think about,
some you don't.

And then there's
the one you agonize over.

[cocking]

[man laughing]

(Jimmy)
Do what l tell you, or something.

But she didn't do it.

So l belted her again.

[man laughing]

Guys, get down.

Jim. Mark!
Hey!

[yelling]

[speaking in Cantonese]

[groaning]

Come on,
let's get out of here!

[clanging]

[birds chirping]

Thanks, Mr. Higgins,
for everything.

l'm gonna miss you.
And l you.

And as soon as you finish
writing your memoirs, send me a copy.

Just can't get enough
of those stories.

l'll send you Magnum's copy.

Good-bye.

You're really lucky
to have a friend like that.

l saw on this soap once
where this guy-- You're gonna miss your plane.

Yeah, l guess l'm stalling.

You know, there's no reason
why you can't stay.

No, l don't belong here.

Michigan's my home,
back at Ruby's Beauty Emporium.

Hawaii may be a paradise
for most people,

but for me
it was just a nightmare.

Except for meeting you.

[groaning]

l'll never forget you, Thomas.

And l'll write you
every day. Let me see your face.

What?
Come on, hand it over.

l see good intentions.
Lots of them.

But only two letters.

And an occasional card
at Christmas.

You leave the face readings
to me, okay?
