'Magnum PI' Season 3 Episode 3 Spoilers: Will Higgins get a green card? A hostage situation sees them trapped
In the new season of 'Magnum PI' on CBS, Juliet Higgins (Perdita Weeks) is now the owner of Robin's Nest, and therefore, she is Thomas Magnum's (Jay Hernandez) boss. The elusive Robin Masters showed up to help when Higgins's visa expired — it turns out that owning a business can help get her visa extended — and so, he transferred ownership of Robin's Nest to her.
This new ownership structure may have caused some issues at first, with Higgins reining in Magnum's spending as well as changing the plates on his Ferrari to remind him that he is, in fact, driving what now belongs to Higgins.
But don't expect that to be the end of Higgins's visa issues. When the show returns for the third episode of the third season, titled 'No Way Out', we will see a continuation of her visa troubles. The synopsis for the next episode simply states, "As Magnum, Higgins, and Theodore 'TC' Calvin (Stephen Hill) try to pull one over on a customs agent to get Higgins a green card, armed gunmen suddenly storm the federal building and start taking hostages."
It is likely that each of these characters will take on a role in getting out of the building as well as freeing the hostages. Perhaps their help in resolving the situation might help Higgins's chances of getting her visa extended, but we are not certain. Meanwhile, we expect Orville "Rick" Wright (Zachary Knighton), Teuila "Kumu" Tuileta (Amy Hill) and Hawaii PD detective Gordon Katsumoto (Tim Kang) to be helping the trio from outside the building.
Meanwhile, Higgins's relationship with Dr Ethan Shah (whom she met in the premiere) seems to be going strong. After Magnum chided her for wanting to do a background check, she decided not to take a look at Kumu's folder and decides to keep going out with him. Magnum, on the other hand, might be a little hard on himself, after all, it may not just be the fans who think that there may be something between him and Higgins, especially after Higgins bought back the watch he pawned to change his tires. Perhaps the hostage situation could put things in perspective for both Higgins and Magnum.
The episode might also delve more into the unknown stalker who is after Magnum. This person seems to be playing a clever, long game as they leave clues behind. Magnum will have to be more careful with respect to dealing with who is potentially this season's major villain.
The next episode is expected to be the final episode of 'Magnum PI' to air this year as we expect the show to go on winter break after this. In that case, 'Magnum PI' will likely return in mid to late January 2021.
'Magnum PI' airs on CBS on Friday nights at 9/8c.
