It's a case of deja vu when Magnum is reunited with an attractive woman who was one of his first clients five years earlier. She calls for his help once more with concerns that she and her young daughter are being threatened by some surfer punks right before a North Shore surfing competition.

Another great "flashback" episode. We get to see what "The Gang" was up to in 1979, before the main events of the series. There are some great surfing shots, a GMC Jimmy/Motorcycle chase on the beach and a couple of good fight scenes. The trials and tribulations of intimate relationships is also explored, something rarely seen in the show.

I agree, one of those beaches. Could be about here, or further north.
The island on the left in the picture is Rabbit Island, the one seen from Robin's Nest.

Another memorable episode.
I really liked Higgins' statement: "For the better one feels about oneself, the better the rest of the world looks." There's a lot of truth to that.
Also, does anyone know if that was Rell Sunn at 47:12? I am pretty sure that it was. By the way, a friend and I were there the day they scattered her ashes out in Makaha. It's hard to believe that was 10 years ago. Just like Magnum said in this episode, "It's kind of funny how the years can sometimes creep by on you..."

Wow, great find Tuan! It's very brief, but it is indeed women's surfing pioneer, and Hawaiian legend, Rell Sunn (the "Queen of Makaha")!Tuan Vu wrote:Also, does anyone know if that was Rell Sunn at 47:12?

God, I love when the show does stuff like this!
Now, if I can only find out who the guy is!

James, I wonder if this is the guy? Randy Rarick,surfer,shaper and promoter...

It's definitely him! Thanks Sam!!
In reading up on him, Randy Rarick is a longtime Hawaiian resident and a bona fide surfing legend!
How cool is that final scene now. Not one, but two uncredited surfing legends (with no lines, however) in the same scene!

Rarick is featured as having surfed in more countries than anyone on Earth (more than 60 different countries). He is quoted as describing the Congo thusly: "Except for the dead body floating down the river, this West African country is the kind of place you want to see at least once."
As for Yugoslavia, he said: "Another of those strange surfs when you least expect it, in probably one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen."

IH and James,
I happened to find that quite by accident.I was flipping through On Demand when I noticed a 4 minute piece on surfing Oahu.Randy's contribution was an 8 sec comment.By the time I realized he looked familiar his spot was over.I rewound and paused to get his name and a better look.
I wonder how many people went uncredited after having some role in the show?
