I am curious about what is supposed to happen as far as estate security if neither Higgins nor Magnum are at home. In "All Thieves on Deck," for example, the estate is breached, Zeus and Apollo attack but Apollo is shot and a burglar enters the house. Magnum and Higgins return home to find the exterior study door broken open and the study ransacked. An alarm panel on the exterior wall is going off; should that not indicate that the police have been alerted? Yet quite some time has apparently gone by and we never see any cops arrive.
There is another episode, I believe "Little Games," where the cops show up because an alarm is going off. It is definitely "Little Games" when FakeMac is trying to reset the Dracos III system and accidentally sets off the alarm, and Higgins says something like "That means the police are getting a call!" So my question is, why didn't the police get a call in "All Thieves on Deck"?
I feel like there are other examples of this but these are the two that are coming to mind right now.

"How fiendishly deceptive of you Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent."
