The Curse of the King Kamehameha Club Magnum, P.I. : Season 1 Episode 11

Rick is organizing a surf-ski competition to be held at the King Kamehameha Club (much to the disapproval of co-committee member Higgins) when a Kahuna appears and places a "curse" on the club and all who use it. Magnum and others are skeptical, but the native locals take such curses very seriously, and it seems there may be something in it when one of the competitors suddenly collapses and dies; then, amongst other incidents, fire breaks out in the kitchen; and Rick falls ill. Magnum investigates to try and find a more logical explanation behind the events, but his inquiries aren't helped by a hounding news reporter, who sees the series of strange incidents as a chance for a big news story.
