Mary quotes from Hawaii Five-0

[opens the door and is shocked to see Steve's sister Mary] Oh! Hi.

Mary

[surprised] Yeah.

Um...Steve had to leave for work, and he told me I should just let myself out, so...um...you must be––

Mary

The sister. I'm Mary. Yeah, I'm just visiting from L.A.. [smirks at Catherine] Big night last night.

Hmm?

Mary

Old house. Thin walls.

[covers her face in embarrassment] Oh, God!

Mary

[grins at Cath's reaction] Yeah. You said that a lot.

It's embarrassing.

Mary

Don't sweat it. I just broke up with my boyfriend, so I plan on having a lot of guys over soon. So it'll be a fair fight.

You're his caregiver?

Mary

Yeah, the flight attendant thing didn't work out so well. Steve, listen please. I really think that this could be my true calling. I love taking care of people.

Well, that's funny, Mary, because you can barely take care of yourself.

MSMorty Sapperstein

[mischievously smacks Mary's behind] We take care of each other. Don't we, doll?

Mary

Morty, do you remember our conversation - about professional boundaries?

No. Memory's not so good.

[unamused] How about this, Morty, you touch my sister again like that, I'm gonna break your hand.

Mary

[sitting at her father's grave site] I still remember the day that that you told me that Mommy wasn't going to be coming home anymore. I remember that night I went into your room and I saw you sitting on your bed, crying. And that scared me, Dad. I miss you so much, Dad. I slept on Steve's floor 'cause I didn't want to be alone, you know and I guess I've been that way ever since. But when Steve just told me that she was alive all I could do was think about you that night crying, Dad. I'm just so angry for what she's put you through. And I miss you so much. I miss you. I miss you, and it just hurts so bad. I love you. [gets up and looks at Morty] Thanks for coming.

Where else was I going to go? I've been to a lot of stone gardens, kid, but I got to say, this is by far the nicest. Not too shabby a place to end up, I think.

Mary

[chuckles] I think you have to be part of the military to be buried here.

Sweetie, I'm retired air force - the 34th Bomb Squadron - so sign me up.

[Morty Sapperstein, Mary McGarrett's ward, talks to her on Waikiki beach]

Mary, I need you to do something for me.

Mary

What? I'll do anything.

I need you to go see your mother.

Mary

I can't.

You can't or you won't?

Mary

Both. She disappeared from my life when I was ten years old, Morty. Gone. This whole time I've thought she's dead.

But she's not. You get a second chance, kid. Other people aren't so lucky. I'd give everything I own to have a second chance.

Mary

What are you talking about?

Zoe Anne Sapperstein. My only daughter.

Mary

You had a daughter, Morty? I didn't know you had a daughter.

Yeah. We got into a fight over this boy she was seeing. Her mother and I disapproved. She left college and took off for San Francisco with the guy. We didn't speak for years. One day the phone rang. It was the Highway Patrol. Carpet salesman from Oakland had too much to drink. He fell asleep behind the wheel and hit my daughter's car. Killed her instantly. Not a day goes by I don't wish I'd picked up the phone and called her. I let the privilege of knowing her slip away because I was a stubborn SOB. Don't make the same mistake. Put away your anger. Go see your mother. You only have one family.

Mary

I'll just call Child Protective Services and Joan will have to be placed in foster care for a while. I just hope that the trauma doesn't affect her cognitive development.

"Cognitive"? You don't even know what that word means.

Mary

You're a horrible uncle, you know that?

[Later, Steve walks into the Five-O headquarters with baby Joan strapped in a carrier. Danny sees him and starts laughing.]
