Visible crew/equipment: After Rick slugs Magnum at the beach, it cuts to Higgins fixing his broken miniature airplane at his desk, then just as the mini airplane collapses onto the desk, a crew member's right hand (presumably he was holding up the airplane's tail) with a ring on the index finger, is visible at the right side of the screen.

Higgins: How fiendishly deceptive of you, Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent. To my great surprise, I see the sounds are emanating from what I thought was a harmless musical instrument.
Magnum: Cute Higgins, real cute.
Higgins: Why Magnum? Why do this terrible thing?
Magnum: Higgins, I'll have you know I used to be very good. I was the second best sax player in my High School band!
Higgins: Well, how many sax players were there?!

Higgins: May I suggest that your "chops" are irretrievable.
Magnum: Higgins, did you come here just to abuse me!? (00:05:25)
