      Storyline

      • Trivia
        The final appearance of Eugene Roche as Luther H. Gillis.
      • Goofs
        When Magnum and Luther find the bullet and corresponding shell case of the round fired at Higgins, Magnum identifies it as a ten millimeter round, and then correctly names the Bren Ten (the first production 10mm handgun) as a possible candidate for the weapon that fired the round. Higgins, however, then names another possible candidate for the would-be killer's pistol as the "Super Elite." While Colt did manufacture a Super Elite, it was never chambered in 10mm. The Delta Elite was the only Colt chambered for the 10mm round.
