There's a nifty clever bit in this compelling episode which I don't think has yet been noted here: The song that is playing right before Magnum recognizes Holly's dedication from a day or two ago (and thus clues him in that she is not there live) is..."She's Not There"! Wink

Oh, wow! I never noticed that before! Very clever indeed!

Great song, too. I've always loved The Zombies. Odessey and Oracle is still one of my favorites albums ever.

rated this average. Nothing terribly compelling about the episode. It reminded me too much of the earlier episode with Marcia Strassman who was a nurse they knew in Vietnam...........they held a similar kind of reverence for her. The climax takes place on a peak and of course the female lead is troubled. Sure some details are obviously different, but this was kind of formulaic to me.

I like this episode. I love the whole business with JQH's birthday, and his attempts to find out what the construction really was.
The moment when TSM brings JQH out for the birthday announcement, we see TC's 500D hovering down with the huge sign attached to the skid with "Happy Birthday Higgy Baby" is a classic.

The end scene with TSM and Holly is a nice one too. Shows the effect of war and combat can have far reaching effects to many, not just military.
