The next day, Maggie had Magnum meet her at the church where he and Michelle used to meet. Maggie apologized for lying to him and told him as far as the French government is concerned Lily died in the car explosion. Magnum turned from Maggie to see Lily standing with a nun.

She called him Papa for the first time.

Answer: Rick's wedding

Rick married Cleo Mitchell from the episode "The Hotel Dick". Rick made T.C. his best man and thought Magnum was being petty when he didn't show up as his groomsman. In truth, Magnum was finishing a case and re-upping in the Navy. He showed up at the wedding in his dress uniform to stand up as groomsman for Rick.

Answer: "Goodnight"

The scene ended with Rick saying "I. . ." but not getting "I do" out completely. Higgins last words were "I lied" when he informed Magnum he lied about being Robin Masters. Lily called Magnum "Papa" for the first time in the church. After the credits rolled, a man was seen watching Magnum and Lily walking down the beach.

When the TV episode was over, the man got up turned off the TV and turned toward the viewers screen. It was Magnum in his uniform. He told the viewers goodnight and then turned off the screen with his TV control.
