Magnum P.I. (2018): Season 4, Episode 20 - Close to Home - full transcript

♪

Who are you?

The hell is this about?!

Beth.

Beth!

What the hell
do you want from us?

Good evening...

Detective Katsumoto.

We don't wish to harm you

or your ex-wife.

In fact, we need
you alive...



because

we have a problem...

...and you're the only man
on the island

who can fix it.

And you will fix it.

Because if you don't...

Beth will die.

Juliet,

do you want a romantic
relationship with Magnum?

No, there's so much at stake.

There's a lot to risk,

but it's better
than the alternative.

Which is what?

Saying no to what
you really want.

Thomas.

Higgins. Hey.
Hi.

Hey. Um...

Sorry if I'm intruding.
I did knock, though.

Yeah, but you
knocked and entered.

Uh, normally, you knock
and wait for a response.

Well, yes, but some people
use knocking

as, like, a heads-up.
Anyway...

Sorry.

I should have waited
for a response.

It's fine.

Uh, what's up?

Is now a... good time?

A good time for what?

Just... in general.

Are you okay?

Me? I'm fine.

Yeah. Do I not seem fine?

You just don't
seem like yourself.

Well...

the reason
I came over is...

Well, I want
to tell you something.

I just want to make sure
that I-that I get it right.

Okay.
Thing is...

I've been doing
a lot of thinking,

and...

Thomas, have you
seen my jacket?

Oh.

Uh, Juliet, hi.

Morning.

Lia. Hi. Morning.
Um, I'm really sorry.

I-I didn't know that
you had company.

W-W... Yeah, I-I...

uh, offered

to buy Thomas
dinner after we...

...finished the
case, and we

ended up here for a drink.
Several drinks, actually.

Not gonna lie, I am feeling
a little hungover.
Yeah.

I figured, actually.

Excuse me for a second.

Higgins, do you want
to talk privately?

No, no, no. It's fine.
Don't worry. It's not important.

I... We can talk
about it later.

Bye, Lia. It's good to see you.

Yeah, you too.

♪ I was looking for a way
to spread my wings... ♪

I know what it looks like, but

nothing happened.
You know, the only reason why

she spent the night is because
she drank too much,

and she couldn't drive, so...

I actually slept
on the couch,

so, like I said,
nothing happened.

Yeah, but nobody's saying
that anything did.

Yeah, why you getting so defensive?
No, I'm not

getting defensive,
it's just that,

when Higgins saw her, uh,
she had this look.

It was-it was very subtle,

but it was like
she was disappointed.

And I didn't even
do anything wrong.

All right, but you two
broke up a while ago.

Maybe Higgy was just
caught off-guard.

No. I don't think it was that.

You know what, I wouldn't
sweat it. I-I'd be thankful

that you found out
about Higgins and Cole

before you said anything.

Sometimes, I wish I hadn't

opened my mouth with Suzy. It-it
just makes things get weird.
Yeah.

Where's Gordie?
His burrito's getting cold.
I don't know.

I texted him a while ago,
and still no response.

Hm.

Maybe he got something
better to do.

All right, you're giving
me some of that.

Get in there.

Sorry, Gordie, there's
a statute of limitations

on burritos, so, unfortunately,
we split yours

three ways.
I need to see you right away.

Well, uh...

I'm about ten minutes from HPD.

No, no. No, no.
I'll drop you a pin.

Everything okay?

Just get there
as soon as you can.

Something wrong?

I don't know.

Hey. Guess you got
the same call I did.

Any idea what's
going on?

No.

Gordon did not sound happy.

Maybe you've done
something wrong.

Uh, maybe you did
something wrong.

Well, I guess we'll find out
soon enough.

Hey, um...

about last night, I just
want to say nothing happened.

I'm sorry?
Between me and Lia. I-I know

what it looked like,

and, uh, yeah,
nothing happened.

You're an adult. You don't
have to explain yourself to me.

Yeah, I know. It just
seemed like you were

bothered or...

I don't know. Maybe not
bothered, but...

something.

I was just surprised, is all.

Fair enough.

What did you want
to talk about, anyway?

Just, uh, tedious work stuff,

which is why I said
it could wait.

Thanks for coming.

Of course, Gordie.
What's up?

Last night, Beth and I
were both abducted.

What? How did you escape?
I didn't.

They let me go.
But they still have Beth.

What do they want?

They want me to go
into Wahiawa Prison today

and meet up with my old partner,
Shane Whelan.

And then they want me
to kill him.

I don't get it, if they
wanted to kill somebody

inside the prison, why wouldn't
they enlist a prisoner?

Well, that's assuming
they could get to him.

Turns out Whelan's
in protective custody.

Only a few guards and prison
staff have access to him.

But, as a cop, you can
request an interview.

Exactly.

The kidnappers instructed me

to put in the request
for this afternoon

and then go into work
and act normal.

They also said
if I try to track them down

or involve HPD, they'll know,
and they'll kill Beth.

Any idea who would
want Whelan dead?

I imagine that's a long list.

Perhaps if we can figure
that out, then we can work out

who's leveraging you.

Yeah, I can pull
his visitor logs,

see who he's been
talking to on the outside.

In the meantime, we'll see
if we can retrace Beth's steps.

See if we can find out
where she was taken.

We're gonna get Beth back.

Okay?

His uncles took him to
a Grizzlies game last night,

and he's got family
coming in from Knoxville

to visit him today.

Sounds like Cade's having
a great time.

Hey, you know
what this means?

You get more time to spend
with Mahina,

right? Yeah.
That sounds like a good idea.

Oh, that's me.

Hey.

Hey, where are you right now?

Uh, I'm with TC.
We're playing hooky.

We're at Bowls.
The waves are firing.

Yeah, well, we got some
major waves over here, too.

My water just broke.

What do you mean
your water just broke?

You're not due
for another couple weeks.

Tell that to the baby.
This thing wants out.

Tell that to the baby.
Tell the...

Baby-baby's coming.
Baby's coming. TC,

baby wants out.
It's go time. TC, it's go time.

It's go time.
What do we-what do we do?

what do we do?
For starters,
you can get your butt over here.

Okay. All right,
TC's gonna drive.
I'll-I'll drive.

We're on our way.
We're on our way.

We're on our way.

This was the last
location of Beth's phone

before it was
powered off.

That's about a mile
from her house.

Gordon mentioned that
she sometimes jogs at night.

Maybe she was out for a run.

The kidnappers follow her,
wait for their moment,

and then
grab her here.

Makes sense. Residential area,

no traffic cams, and then this

entire side is a park.

Yeah, it's a total blind spot.

Well, maybe not. What about

this area?

It's a community garden. So?

Well, a lot of them
have security cameras.

What?

Produce theft
is a serious problem.
Oh.

Please tell me
you have something.

Maybe. We have

security footage
of Beth's abduction.

She was out for a run when two
men grabbed her and threw her

in the back of a van
and took off.

The time code
reads 9:47 p.m.

You get a plate off the van?

Yes, but unfortunately,

it was reported stolen
this morning.

HPD plate readers spotted it
in Kalihi Kai

at 10:00 p.m. last night,
so we're thinking that's

where they've taken her.

Well, we need to canvas the
area, check vacant buildings,

anywhere they
may be holding her.

Yeah, trouble is,
it's a huge area to cover.

Gordie, when you were on
the livestream with Beth,

what can you tell me
about the room?

Can you remember anything?

Uh, the walls were cinderblock.

There were baker's racks
in the background.
Okay,

I'll see what I can find.
All right,

I actually have something
as well.

Seems Whelan recently had
a visit from some lawyers

in the Justice Department.

Well, if he was meeting

with the Feds, he
was probably trying

- to cut a deal.
- Mm-hmm.

If he was about to roll
on someone,

that would explain
the urgency to take him out.

Any idea who he
might be giving up?

No, and I'm due at Wahiawa
at 2:00 p.m.,

which doesn't give us
much time to find out.

Well, we may not have to.
I think I've got something.

There's an old baking plant
on Middle Street.

It's currently
not in use.

That could
be where they're holding Beth.

In here!

This is where they had Beth.
They must've moved her.

You broke the rules, Detective.

We warned you...

there would be consequences.

Okay, just wait a minute.

No! You son of a bitch!

I'll kill you!

I swear to God,

I will hunt you down
and kill you!

Don't get...

...angry at us, Detective.

This was on you.

Now, either do what we want,

or the next one
goes in her head.

Deadline is in less
than two hours, Gordon.

We should consider
informing HPD.

No.
Look at what they just did.

I'm not gambling
with Beth's life.

Listen, we can't take away
their leverage, but maybe...

maybe we can get
some of our own.

How?

I have an idea, but...

you're not gonna like it.

You're okay,
you're okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

Oh, hey, if it isn't
the uncle-to-be.

How's it going?

Oh, really, Thomas?
I'm having a baby here,

and you're asking me
for a favor?

You're having a baby?

I'm not having a baby. I'm
sorry. I'm not having a baby.
Really? Yeah.

Uh-huh.You're having a baby.
Uh-huh. A uniform?

It's kind of a big ask, pal.

Uh, yeah, no.
I-I can do it, no problem.

Uh, what's this for?
You-you know what? Never mind.

I don't want to know. Okay.
I'm texting him now.

Okay.
I changed my mind.

I want the epidural.
Okay, we're gonna get you

the epidural. We're gonna
get you the epidural. Okay.Please, please.

I want the epidural, please.

How we doing?
I want the epidural. I need

Uh, I think we're
saying yes to drugs.
the epidural. Yes to drugs.

Sorry about the arm.

Had to make a point.

Least now, your ex...

knows what
he has to do.

I mean, the man couldn't
save his own sister.

Now, certainly, he's not gonna
let down the mother of his son.

He knows you, doesn't he?

That's why the mask.

That's why you have me
speak for you.

Well...

Generally, in a
kidnapping case,

a mask is pretty standard.

But, yeah,

I know Gordon
and Whelan.

They were a real problem
for me a while back.

I thought I took care of it,
but, you know Whelan--

can't keep his mouth shut.

Looking back,

I should have just
killed them both.

Comms check.

Clear. Heading in now.

You know, I don't think anyone's

ever tried this before.

And with good reason.

Oh, you mean
breaking into a prison?

Probably right.

Open up the gate.

Open.

Okay, you want to take
your first left.

The fastest route to the server

is across the yard.

♪ Slam, da duh duh, da duh duh

♪ Let the boys be boys

♪ Slam, da duh duh, da duh duh

♪ Make noise b-boys

♪ Well, it's another one...

Okay, you want the entrance
on the northeast side.

Give me more.

You got to keep going, bro.

Two more.

Uh, that might be a problem.

Just stay on the periphery.

You'll be fine.

No, it's not that.

There's an inmate here
in the yard, and, uh, well...

...I'm kind of the reason
why he's here.

Just get to the door as
quickly as you can, all right?

Oh!

Come on, Suzy, keep pushing,
keep pushing.

I'm so proud of you.
You're doing so good.

You're doing so good.
I can't do it.

You can do it,
you can do it.

Okay, Suzy, we just need
one last big push.

Come on, come on.
Come on, come on.

Push, push, push. That's it.
There you go.

That's it. Push.
Come on, you got it.

Push, push, push. Push.

That's it.

Oh, wow. Oh.

Meet your daughter.

Is she okay?

Yeah, she's perfect.

Would dad like to cut the cord?

Yeah, I would.

Yeah.
Come over here.

Thank you. Okay.
Here you go.

Right here? Okay.
Yeah, right there.

Little slippery.

Good job, Dad.

Thanks.
You're a father.

Oh, my God.

BP's dropping.
She's hemorrhaging.

What do you mean, she's
hemorrhaging? What happening?
She's losing blood, fast.

Get him out of here.
Suzy... Hey, hey. You okay?

Mr. Wright, you need
to come with me.
What? What's happening?

Come on, Suzy,
stay with me.
Suzy.

What's going on?

Call the rapid response team.
Come on, Suzy.

Stay with us, Suzy.

I'm in.

Magnum, Gordon's just arrived.
You better hurry.

Okay, you're looking
for server A2-6147.

A2-6147...

Okay.

We're in.

Now comes the hard part.

Magnum, you got a tail. Looks
like your friend from the yard

has followed you inside.

It is you.

What, are you undercover
on a case?

Yeah.

Working with the warden, so
don't say anything, all right?

You do not want to get
on this guy's bad side.

I'm losing four years
of my life 'cause of you.

Hold on.

Uh, some might argue that, uh,

you're losing four years of your
life because you had a meth lab

in your kitchen.

Magnum, behind you.

Black.
Three sugars.

You remembered.
I'm touched.

Ah.

Nice of you to come
all the way out here.

I really don't get visitors.

That's not what
I hear. In fact,

you had two recently, and they
traveled all the way from D.C.

Who are you
about to roll on, Shane?

Is that why you're here?

What, you're hurt I didn't come
to you first? Let you have

the collar?I'm here because
there's already been blowback.

Beth's been taken.

I just hope I'm not
gonna end up in here

for what I'm about to do.

What did you do, Gordie?

What'd you put in here?

Just something
to help you sleep.

Guard.

You're welcome.

What happened to the gurney?

I had to call
an audible.

The plan was I get
a doctor's coat, we stick him

on the gurney and catch
an ambulance out of here.

Yeah, that was a great plan,
that plan is dead.

Now there's a new plan.
Terrific.
You care to loop me in?

You don't trust me?
You don't have a plan, do you?

Does getting out of here
before the alarm goes off count?

- No, it does not. No.
- Magnum, we have a problem.

One of the security guards
has discovered your friends

in the laundry room, and he's
called it in. The prison

is about to go into lockdown.

How much time
do we have?

Come on.

On the ground!
On the ground now!

Two lines. LL in the front,

Trevors in the back.

Talk to me, Higgins.

I'm working on an exfil.
Hold your position

whilst I distract the guards.

We're on lockdown.
My guys are mobilizing now.

Hey, Sarge, look at the doors
on 1-A. They're rolling back.

This is control center.
We have a code red

in cell block A.
Get to A-block. Move, move!

Okay, all clear.

Make your way down the hallway

and I'll start
opening some doors.

Hey. What's the latest?

She's still in surgery.

They can't stop the bleeding.

Where's Rick?

Thought they kept this
maternity ward locked up tight.

One of the nurses

is a distant cousin of mine.
Mm.

Oh.

She's beautiful.

I'm scared, Kumu.

I never been
more scared in my life.

And I've seen some scary stuff,
but this...

...this is different.

Listen to me.

This little girl's mom
is a strong woman.

She's a fighter who's struggled
her entire life.

And she knows that there are
people waiting out here

who love her.

People who need her.

But it's out of our hands now.

You just look
after your daughter.

That's the best thing
you can do for Suzy right now.

Oh...

Gordon,
what are you...

Where the hell are we?

We're outside
Schofield Barracks.

About two miles from the prison.

You... Wait.
You broke me out? Why?

It was either that
or a bullet to the head.

The people who took Beth

sent me in to kill you.

So, what, now you trade
me for her?

No, actually, we're going
to use you as bait.

Tell us who we're up against.

Who were you about
to screw over?

Ray Nasano.

I'm guessing you know who he is.

Ray's a big player

in the ice trade.

Shane and I tried to take
him down a while back.

Chased him for a year.
Couldn't make anything stick.

But what could you
possibly have on him now

that we didn't have then?

Thing is, I did have it.

I had it then.

I, uh, had some leverage

on one of Ray's crew,
I turned him.

He gave me the evidence

we needed to bring Ray down.

Except Ray paid you off.

This happened

right under my nose.
How'd I miss it?

You were on emergency leave.

When Kim died.

That's your sister?

Is it done?

Change of plan.

And you can drop the theatrics,
Ray. I know it's you.

New terms.

I've got Whelan.

Say hi, Shane.

Hi.

Here's how

this is gonna work.

We meet, you get Whelan,

Beth leaves with me.

You know, the cop I remember

didn't have such a hard time
following rules.

Again, the man who can bury you

in exchange for Beth.

There's a quarry in Makakilo,
at the end of Palehua Road.

Be there in one hour.

Just you and Whelan.

If I see anyone else--

anyone else--

well, you won't have to worry
about spousal support anymore.

It's gonna be an ambush.

Yeah. For them.

♪

What do you see?

- Three gunmen.
- Problem is, a minute ago,

there were four of them,
including Ray,

who's now inside the car,
which means

there's one of them
lying in wait somewhere.

Means they probably plan on

taking you out as soon
as they have Whelan.

Any idea where the fourth gunman
could've taken up position?

High ground, good cover.
Maybe here?

Yeah. Or there.

Gonna have to split up.

All right, you go in
with Whelan,

we'll converge on foot.

All right.
Watch yourselves, okay?

Good luck.

You too.

Wait.

There's something
you deserve to know.

What?

Back when we were
going after Ray,

we were closer
than we even realized.

But Ray couldn't just kill us,

it would've drawn
too much attention.

And he knew
you couldn't be bought,

so he had to knock you
off your game.

Hard.

What are you saying?

He saw to it that the heroin
your sister O.D.'d on

was laced with fentanyl.

No, that's not possible.
The autopsy would've...

He paid the M.E.
to fake the results.

You're saying he murdered Kim

because we were
getting too close,

and you knew
this whole time.

No. I only found out after.

But you still kept it from me.

I had to keep my mouth shut,

otherwise they would've
killed my family.

Why are you telling me now?

'Cause there's a chance
I'm not walking away from this.

And if I'm gonna meet my maker,

I want to do it
with a clear conscience.

♪

Put away the gun.

Let me see Beth.

- Let's not make this complicated.
- We each hold our positions.

You send Beth, I send Whelan.

Go.

♪

Drop the clip and put
the gun on the ground.

Come on.

Get down and stay down.

Hey, pal.

I'd like to say it's nice
to see you again, but...

it's not.

Take cover!
Look out!

Yeah.
Where's Gordie?

He went after Ray.

Go.

Guess you finally got me, huh?

Look at me.

Look at me!

Gordie!

He murdered Kim.
Laced the drugs with fentanyl.

Okay. But it's over.

We got him.

Lower the weapon.

Walk away, Magnum.

I can't do that.

And you can't do this.

Just leave, damn it!

I'm not going anywhere.

If you want to pull that
trigger, you go ahead.

I'll back up whatever version
of the story you want to tell.

It's not gonna
bring Kim back, though.

And if you do pull that
trigger, it's only gonna end

in more pain, you know that.

All right,
you know that

because you've been exactly
where I'm standing right now.

Come on, Gordie.

Oh, you're gonna break
a lot of hearts.

You want to hold her?

Yes.

Just be careful with her neck.

We haven't, uh...

We hadn't decided yet.

I regretted telling her
how I felt about her, but...

now I'm glad she knows.

Yeah.

I'm sorry we couldn't
be here earlier.

Yeah.Well, there's nothing

you could've done.

Yeah, she's all right.

what happened today.

Are you okay?

Beth is.
That's all that matters.

Lieutenant come down
hard on you?

Suspended indefinitely

they'll probably take my badge.

I'm so sorry, Gordon.

Hey, don't be. I'm not.

Hey.

You all right?

Uh, yeah. Yeah.

Why'd you leave?

Gordie's situation,

Suzy and the baby.

It's a lot.

Actually, uh...

I'm lying.

I'm-I'm not all right.

Um...

There is something else.

So, when I came
to talk to you today...Mm-hmm.

It wasn't about work.

I wanted to tell you something.

And then I saw Lia there,
and I just couldn't.

Well, now I know
nothing happened,

and, uh,

I have to tell you,
because it's...

it's just gonna
haunt me otherwise.

So I came to tell you...

...that I have, uh,

feelings for you.

I tried to deny it,

and I just can't anymore.

Yeah. Right.

I bet this is just doing
wonders for your ego.

No, no, it's... it's not that.

Then what is it?

When you were
in the wine cellar yesterday,

I wanted to spend
the day with you...

But you had plans

Wait, what?

I have feelings for you.

I think I have for a while.

I just didn't know it.

Oh.

I mean, of course,
I have my reservations.

So do I. Yeah.

I don't want to risk
losing our friendship,
