Was a house set in Costa Rica where some monsters were hit. Goodfellas?

Might be totally wrong but looks like same house. :wink:
Hi TQ.. you are right that is the house I'm curious have you seen Rubber Chickens location guide?

Ok.. don't take this the wrong way the reason I asked you is because it's already been identified as the location.

As what location?
Knocking my rubber chicken or my sloppy habits is within the rules, but you're attacking my character. I would like to think you don't mean that.

Thanks Sam.

My question had nothing to do with that.

I had thought the house was used in another show where the scene was set in Costa Rica... I was wrong anyway.

I never mentioned anything about its location in Hawai'i nor did I ask where it was.

Cheers. :)

Questions and Observations:
1. Why did Icepick spring for the flowers and show up at Rick’s parents’ funeral. Did Rick’s father work for him? Rick doesn’t seem to know him, is he thinking he might pick up a future foot soldier if he makes an impression on Rick? Or is he just being an upstanding guy in the neighborhood, figuring a little good PR never hurts the business?
2. TM isn’t being much of a friend to Carol, not wanting to listen to her vent at lunch. Granted, he makes up for it later, but I thought it was odd him trying to weasel out of that.
3. He’s still doing stakeouts in the Ferrari? I mean, he couldn’t ask Higgins for the jeep now and again?
4. I’m thinking all that evidence from the office would be inadmissible, seeing as how it was procured in an illegal B&E.

Having watched this one tonight I have vague recollections of having seen it before during the ‘80s.
I recall the Chinese woman in the flower shop was the villain of the episode the first time we saw her say something about “no police, we don’t want any trouble” and I didn’t really understand what was going on in the story first time round. I was young and dumb then - now I’m old and dumb 😬.
This time I paid attention and there are a few things to like.
It was interesting to hear some narration for Rick as I like to see other regular cast members get their back story fleshed out a bit. The tone of the coda to the story was different, which I liked.
In fact my only gripe is, you guessed it, that it was centred on that wretched Baldwin woman. 🤮
Oh well, Higgy, Rick and TM made up for that and I largely enjoyed this one.

Weak episode. Icepick as a snitch? I'm not buying it.

Plus, all the evidence Magnum and Carol found would be suppressed as it was gathered in an illegal search under the 4th Amendment. No convictions for anyone.

I think the story lines were admirable, but the execution was ham handed and unbelievable.
