Magnum, T.C., and an ex-army buddy named Nuzo (played by James Whitmore, Jr.) try to track down Ivan (played by Bo Svenson), a Russian who held them captive during the Vietnam War and won't stop until he kills them all. Lieutenant "Mac" MacReynolds, claiming that he has been fired from the Navy, starts hanging around Magnum. In reality, Mac wasn't fired but is working under Buck Green's orders to find Ivan and prevent Magnum from killing him. After a night out at a bar, Mac is killed by a car bomb when he gets into Magnum's Ferrari ahead of Magnum. Magnum vows revenge. Magnum discovers that Nuzo, who is actually Ivan's operative, has hypnotized T.C. and convinced him to kill a visiting Japanese dignitary. Magnum stops T.C. in time, but due to political immunity Ivan is set free, his next target perhaps being the president. With Rick's help, Magnum captures Ivan, who taunts Magnum and tells him that he can't do anything to stop him. At the end of the episode, Magnum asks Ivan, "Did you see the sunrise?", echoing a wish Mac had expressed with his last words. Ivan replies "yes", and a gunshot is heard but the action unseen off-camera.
