Magnum PI Season 1 Episode 4 "Six Paintings, One Frame" Review


Magnum is arrested as the main suspect when a close friend of Higgins, an art connoisseur who recently hired Thomas to test his security, is murdered.

This was a really great episode that had such an interesting story to it but there were also some confusing parts that I'm still trying to work through to make it all make sense. Everything around who where the actual murders and how they were involved was the confusing part because from what I understand right now it went something like this. So the robbers actually worked for the victim and they set things up to make it look like they used Magnum's information to break in but actually, they just walked right in because they worked there. Then they stole six paintings but only actually wanted one which they got a forgery done on that one to return to the police with the other five paintings then they would sell that one painting for millions of dollars, but then one of them ended up turning on the others for unknown reasons and started killing them off even though he still needed some of them. And all of that was done really confusingly so that was hard to follow so I don't even know if everything I said was the true plot. But then the other part that bugged me was how the police treated Magnum where they told him that he was the lead suspect and then they never really did anything to stop him from looking into the case and steal evidence besides just giving him a slap on the wrist. Everything with TC and Rick was a great comedic part to the story where Rick discovered that TC is an art lover and Magnum and Rick never let that go and joke about how they were held in a prison together for 18 months but never figured this side of TC out. Then just overall this was a really great and entertaining episode that was a little confusing to follow but still great to watch.
