Continuity mistake: When Magnum tackles the 'commando' from behind coming off the wall, the elder guy with the white beret is holding both hands on the right armrest of the chair. New shot and he has just a hand on the other one. (00:03:25)
Continuity mistake: Inside the study, Higgins is having Zeus and Apollo bite the dog handler. In the background, William B. Knox stands behind the armchair with his right hand over the left. The hands have instantly traded places in the next shot. (00:04:40)
Continuity mistake: The lads greet Magnum growling at him. They pass by a table with a flower centerpiece on it. A minute later, the producer gives him the thumbs up as he walks out, saying "Welcome aboard"; the table gets back in frame, and now the flowers are gone and all there's left is a decorative plate. (00:05:15 - 00:06:55)
Continuity mistake: Magnum and Rick by the wall are looking at Jack Martin going back to his trailer. They are on a spot in the sun and have plenty rays on them, but in the rest of their exchange with a very bored TC they all are in the shadow. (00:13:00)
Continuity mistake: Higgins introduces Lt. Tanaka with a hand gesture in close-up he showed no sign of doing in the previous shot - in fact he had that hand down, planted on the desk. (00:16:45)
Continuity mistake: Searching the trailer, Magnum tells his friends the suicide theory. Rick in close-up is holding the flashlight in the same left hand he is leaning against the drawers with, but it is in his right hand at the cut. (00:38:50)
Continuity mistake: By the deathbed of her husband, Olivia Ross asks, startled by Magnum "What are you doing here?" Her right arm position changes (along the railing or not) depending on the camera angle. (00:45:35)
Continuity mistake: The director, Myrt Callahan, is talking to the producer while Higgins is on the phone with Robin Masters. Knox says that people can grieve and work at the same time, and she has both arms forward, but in the background when the camera focus is on Higgins we see her right hand on her waist.
