Infinity and Jelly Doughnuts - S8-E1

Visible crew/equipment: After they talk to Nick about Father Timothy it cuts to Maggie hounding Magnum not to go after Quang Ki. Just as they all turn the corner to walk into Magnum's VA hospital room, the nurses station is in the background at the right side of the screen, and there's lighting equipment and a director's chair visible. Also, after Magnum agrees to give Ron time to find Quang Ki, when it cuts to Katherine talking on the phone, we can see Larry Manetti just standing in the background at the right side of the screen, waiting for his cue to rush into the study.

Infinity and Jelly Doughnuts - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: When Ron Templeton hands Magnum the manila envelope, in the shot facing Magnum as he pulls the photo out of the envelope, we can easily see the image from the back side of the photograph. In this shot the man in the photo is wearing a suit jacket, white shirt, tie, with nothing on his head, but in the next closeup of the photograph Quang Ki is wearing a uniform and cap. The same thing happens again later, when Magnum is in his VA hospital room. (00:32:30 - 00:36:30)

Mac: Time has little to do with infinity and jelly donuts.
