Since Magnum has set out to learn how to fly helicopters, T.C. is going to teach him. Suddenly, T.C. is hit by a bullet, and the private detective is kidnapped. Magnum is well aware that the bullet that hit T.C. was actually intended for him.

 

With help from the outside, the private investigator manages to free himself and return to the guest house on Robin Masters’ estate.
