Pat Morita actually was on Magnum, P.I.
He's the one with the Hawaii shirt and hat.
So I made a Topic Page about Magnum, P.I. Check it out here.

I have to watch this one again. Is the guy in the red shorts grabbing the behind of the girl in front of him?
It's hard to tell without seeing a few frames. I remember when TS was implicated in that on a thread a while ago. It seemed fairly split on whether he was doing it or not, and I don't believe it was a Magnum episode that was in question.

No he is doing something with a girl in a light blue bathingsuite standing behind the woman who's rear he is not about to fumble.

I remember. In Squeeze Play, right? The sandal king? VERY small part. I LOVED Pat Morita in Karate Kid. He certainly was capable of a much larger...and re-occuring...role.
And...no, that guy is not grabbing the lady's behind...she's his BOSS!! Well, the wife of the owner. Of course, in this case, the idea is not an impossible one.
I'm amazed that any of you even noticed Pat Morita since he's standing next to a gal who's swim suit is almost non-existant! Or maybe it's just "skin-colored" in places....
Land sakes alive!!
Isn't the ocean beautiful at sunset? So soft....so peaceful...so romantic!
What an unintentionally great screen cap. Check out where Pat Morita's eyes are looking! LOL! The big, blond-haired guy is actually focusing on a lady who is directly behind Louise Sorel, and out of sight (you can just barely see her hair). This was the only good shot of the "lady in the bikini".
Agatha, this is actually from "One More Summer", not "Squeeze Play".

It was a scene from TS' very early movie, Daughters of Satan, where he was accused by me of the "hand placement malfunction." Agatha, did you see this picture? What do you think? Looks pretty self-evident to me.

It was the girl in the lt. blue suit that he looked to be grabbing at. In 10th grade I had a .... let's just say very attractive English teacher. Whenever she would walk up the asile between my friend Jim and I he'd do that with his hand causing everyone who saw it to burst out laughing. Brings back memories.

Well, golf, I don't know. it may just be the frame that we're looking at and if I saw the whole sequence I might see that it's a "grab" but his hand looks pretty flat to me...like it's "guiding" rather than "grabbing" - ??? Of course, whatever's going on in the story would be an indication, too, but "guiding" is certainly more appropriate at the elbow so you're probably right!
