Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Following the advice of a fortune cookie which reads "A Man of Good Fortune Repays His Reward", Magnum (Tom Selleck) heads to the docks to pick up a crate of books as a favor to a friend. Instead he winds up with a pretty Japanese stowaway named Mioshi (Kim Miyori), who claims to be escaping from her brute of a father. Higgins (John Hillerman) doesn't believe the girl's story, owing to the fact that he and Miosih's dad (Danny Kamekona) have been friends for nearly four decades, but the evidence seems irrefutable. Clearly, Magnum's little favor will soon mean big trouble for everyone concerned!
