There's a synopsis of this script somewhere on this website...courtesy of yours truly...!!

Some scripts get filmed and some don't. Sometimes it is a matter of not being able to get the proper sets, availibility of locations, etc. that would contribute to a script not being filmed. We'll probably never know, but I think it would have made a terrific episode! :D

Here's the synopsis:

Plus, there's also uploaded version of two other scripts "Gypsys Curse" courtesy of golfmobile and "Forbidden Island" courtesy of the "Doctor of Destruction" and "Surgeon of Pain", yours truly.

They're all pretty good reads, and its nice to have 3 Magnum episodes all to ourselves (even if the pictures may only be in our heads)

I don't believe so.......

I know there's one out there, because the original plot was to have Magnum's name be "Cutter" and he'd work out of Beverly Hills.

There's a thread out there somewhere that relates to it...

(I think IslandHopper or James know more about it)
