Magnum P.I. (S8, Ep 6 - The Love That Lies) (1987)

S8, Ep 6: The Love That Lies. Magnum is trying to protect Carol, who is in the middle of a particularly controversial court case, when he is hired by Brenda Babcock, a woman from the mainland, to help locate the birth certificate for the child she gave up for adoption 30 years ago. In doing so he becomes embroiled in Carol's personal life, as he discovers a powerful secret about her mother Abigail that could shatter her. Starring Tom Selleck, John Hillerman, Roger E Mosley, Larry Manetti, Kathleen Lloyd, Celeste Holm, Eileen Brennan, Gary Wood, Gerry Gibson, Tom Nibley, Josie Over, Ray Bumatai, Kenna Chen, Jeannie Austen and Don Nahaku. Episode 6 brings in a couple of Oscar winners in Celeste Holm (Gentleman's Agreement) and Eileen Brennan (Private Benjamin). Both are complete opposites in personality, but both add real class to a surprisingly moving episode of Magnum that starts off as one thing and becomes something completely different. I'll be uploading the rest of Magnum's final series this afternoon, as the last series "only" has 13 episodes. With any luck I might be able to post my other videos today as well!
