Quotes
-
Thomas Magnum : [nearly missing the exam to renew their PI licenses] You okay?
Juliet Higgins : I've, like, never failed anything in my whole life.
Thomas Magnum : Come on. Never?
Juliet Higgins : No, no, never. I mean, I... how did I fail and you passed? Sorry. That sounded bad.
Thomas Magnum : Don't worry about it. I mean, you were basically an unlicensed PI for a year before we became partners.
Juliet Higgins : Mm, doing favors for you under the radar is one thing, but I've been a licensed PI for years. I can't just say I didn't know any better.
Thomas Magnum : What's the worst that can happen?
Juliet Higgins : What if I get caught investigating without a license? Then, I mean, it could jeopardize my citizenship. Yeah, that's the worst-case scenario, but I-I just don't think I can take the risk. I think until I get my license back, you're just gonna have to work without me.

Rick : Look, I know how this goes, okay? With Higgins sidelined, you're gonna ask me for a favor, which is probably illegal and will most likely end up with me getting shot at. So let's skip the formalities and just say I'll tag along, okay?
Thomas Magnum : Okay, all right. You're in.
Rick : Great. Where do we start?
Thomas Magnum : Well, we basically have to find a missing person we know nothing about. But to exonerate Justin, all we got to do is prove he wasn't the one behind the wheel during the accident.
Rick : Okay. How do we do that?
Thomas Magnum : Well, just because Justin's injuries were inconclusive doesn't mean Adam's were. We got to take a look at his body.

Juliet Higgins : Why wouldn't the Good Samaritan stay on the scene to give a statement?
Thomas Magnum : Best guess is he had a reason not to talk to the cops.
Juliet Higgins : Well, given my status, I really shouldn't be working on this case, but under the circumstances, maybe it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Thomas Magnum : Ah, something I would say. I don't know if I should be proud or freaked out.
Juliet Higgins : Well, look, there's a lot at stake here, Thomas. You're gonna need all the help you can get.
Thomas Magnum : You just focus on getting your license back. I'll be fine, all right? I'd rather work one case without you than lose you as a partner for good.

Thomas Magnum : [TC is being discharged from the VA hospital] Wow. Look at him go. Man, slow down.
Shammy : Yeah. What, are you in a rush to leave or something?
TC : Can you blame me? I've eaten more Jell-O in the last six weeks than I have my entire life. I gotta get the hell outta here.
-
Rick : [chasing a car thief who stole Magnum's Ferrari] Okay, explain to me again why you're driving my car.
Thomas Magnum : Because it's your car. You'd be way too precious with it.
-
Rick : You sure this is a good idea?
Thomas Magnum : It's a little late to be asking that, right? We already sent the message from Angel's Secrecity account.
Rick : No, I mean is it a good idea to use the Ferrari as bait to lure Kai? It's not even your car, pal.
Thomas Magnum : You know, you're doing a really great job filling in for Higgy. You even sound like her.
