[In the alternate universe. Danny has shot Victor Hesse' knee to get him to confess, shocking Steve.]
What kind of cop are you?
The kind of cop that gets things done.
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
[In real life, Wo Fat has Steve tied up in the chair and injected with truth serum]
You know nothing about the real Doris McGarrett.
Do you? I know that she was assigned to kill your father. But instead your mother died in that op.
Yes. And she never forgave herself for murdering an innocent woman who had just become a new mother. That pain and anguish caused her to do something quite remarkable. She took in that child and raised it as her own for several years. Until her superiors discovered this and forced her–
They forced her to abandon that child. That was you.
[Aunt Deb's boyfriend, Leonard Cassano, asks her about breaking some news, but Steve overhears]
What news?
Short version. Leonard popped the question and I said yes. [shows her engagement ring]
You're engaged?
Yeah.
You've been dating for a couple of months. What's the rush?
[slaps Steve on the arm] Oh, my pragmatic nephew. Never one for romance or the grand gesture. Honey, you know the country western song "Live Like You Were Dying"?
Yeah.
Well, makes more sense when you're actually dying.
[to Steve] You know what you are? You're like a big marshmallow filled with testosterone.
[Leonard talks to Steve about representing a client Five-0's been going after]
I got no issue with you being a lawyer, Leonard.
LCLeonard Cassano
You just don't like my client. I worked for Gino Leone, yeah, but I felt like my real job was to keep the government accountable. There were times they overreached trying to put Gino behind bars.
Yeah, because they knew he was guilty.
LLeonard
But if Gino Leone doesn't have the same right to privacy and self-incrimination as the rest of us, sooner or later, none of us will have those rights. So I gave him my best defense.
Apparently, you gave him a little more than your best defense. The word is that you helped him bury evidence. I checked you out.
LLeonard
I knew you would, that's why I brought this. [picks a box wrapped in brown paper out of a bag] One morning, an envelope was dropped at my office. Inside was a key to a locker in the Penn Station and a note that read, "Destroy anything you find." This box was in the locker.
What's in it?
LLeonard
I don't know. If I had opened this box and there was evidence, morally I would have been compelled to share it with the prosecution. So I didn't open it, but I didn't destroy it either. I would never do that.
What do you want me to do with it?
LLeonard
Do whatever you think is right. I ended my treatment the day before Deb and I got on the boat. There's nothing more they can do. I'm feeling pretty good right now, but in a month or so, I'm going to take a turn for the worse. All I really want to do is spend whatever time I have left making your aunt the happiest woman in the world. We're getting married tomorrow, but I know it wouldn't feel right to her unless you were there and I appreciate you hearing me out. [leaves]
[Leonard and Deb say their wedding vows]
LCLeonard Cassano
My beautiful Deb. I can't believe that a diagnosis of stage IV cancer could make me the happiest man in the world, but it's.. it's true. You held my hand through chemo, but you were my real treatment. I can't even remember my life before you came along and changed everything. You are my angel, my one in a million and all I want is to be your husband. To cherish every moment we have together. I love you.
DMDeb McGarrett
I love you. I don't have a way with words the way my darling Leonard has, so, uh, I've chosen to rely on the Gershwin brothers. [sings 'S_Wonderful with Kamekona and Flipper providing the background music]
'S wonderful, 'S marvelous,
You should care For me..
'S awful nice 'S paradise 'S what I love To see
You've made my life so glamorous
You can't blame me for feeling amorous
Oh, 's wonderful, 'S marvelous
That you should care For me.
[Harry Brown, a former HPD officer turned PI, reflects on a mission to recover an old friend's daughter]
HBHarry Brown
No matter what they tell you, time doesn't heal all wounds. When someone you love is ripped from your life, that scar stays with you forever. But the one bright light in all the darkness is knowing that men like Steve McGarrett are out there, making sure the good guys always come out on top.
[HPD Officer Kai Pua is assigned to review all security camera footage at the Honolulu Marriott and his long-time crush, Kono, visits him]
KPKai Pua
Officer Kai, back in the saddle. I told Gene here I used to work this gig over at the Marriott. He was kind enough to let me take the wheel.
Well, you still got the touch, I see.
KKai
Indeed, I do. But, full disclosure, your window of opportunity has finally closed. I've been in an exclusive relationship for three weeks.
Really? Hmm, well, who's the lucky girl?
KKai
Her name is Brenda. Met her at a karaoke bar. My rendition of "Love Is a Battlefield" closed the deal.
Bold choice. I'm sure you hit those high notes.
[Having learned that Kamekona's taking on Hawaiian food expert Sam Choy at Shrimpalooza, Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto agrees to help him prepare, but a sample of his dish does not pass muster]
It's the pressure. It's affecting my game.
MMMasaharu Morimoto
Problem is, you are cooking from here. [points at temple] You should be cooking from here. [points at Kamekona's heart] To be your best, you must search within yourself. Rediscover your passion.
That's heavy.
MMorimoto
Tell me- who did you train under?
Trigger Mike.
MMorimoto
I'm not familiar with Chef Trigger Mike.
I should hope not. He ran the mess up at Halawa Correctional. Gave me my first job in a kitchen. I became pretty good at it, too. My butter shrimp were so famous, the night guards used to sneak in the fresh catch. I used to grill 'em up in my cell on a hot plate that ran off a car battery. Some of the best meals I ever cooked.
MMorimoto
Show me that.
Hai. [sets up his makeshift stove and cooks his butter shrimps. He completes enough for one plate and has Iron Chef Morimoto taste it]
MMorimoto
[eats one slice and lights up upon discovering how good it is] This is how you will beat Choy. Now we just work on your technique.
[Max talks to Steve, Grover, and Chin Ho via videoconference about the supposed fate of four students at the Waimea Reform School]
Commander, after a thorough examination, I've determined that each of our young victims were suffering from acute dehydration and starvation in the days leading up to and at the time of their deaths.
Take a look at this. [taps screen for news clipping] The week they disappeared was one of the hottest on record for Oahu. Daytime temps hovered in the mid-90s for five straight days.
And this is the basement that the school used as solitary confinement. The same one that Tahni saw the boys being led into the night they returned.
No windows, no ventilation. Must have been unbearable down there.
In that kind of heat, left in a poorly ventilated space, without food or water for a significant amount of time would be equivalent to leaving an infant in a car with a rolled-up window in the middle of the summer. As a result of all these findings, I'm listing the official cause of death as homicide.
[Steve talks with Nahele Huikala, the youth identified as having stolen his Mercury Marquis]
You know what that is? That's a criminal complaint for felony grand larceny auto, charging you with the theft of my car.
NHNahele Huikala
I-I understand, sir, and when I get out of jail, promise I'll pay you back -
Hold on, hold on. I'm not done. The only thing missing from this is my signature. I'm gonna make you the deal of a lifetime. All right? This is what's gonna happen. First, we're gonna go to all the body shops, get back all the parts you sold off. And then you and me, we're gonna put my car back together exactly the way it was before you took it. As long as you keep your nose clean, this complaint stays [pushes file in drawer] in my drawer, unsigned. You understand?
NNahele
Yes. Thank you.
Don't thank me yet. I got eyes and ears all over this island. If I hear one incident, you step out of line one time for the smallest thing, I don't care what it is, I'm gonna find you and I'm not gonna be the nice guy sitting across the desk from you today. Do you understand?
NNahele
Yes. Thank you.
This is your second chance, Nahele, all right? Could be, could be your last chance. Don't blow it, buddy. Take advantage of it.
[Lou Grover and his daughter, Samantha, talk over her nightmares involving Ian Wright]
Hang on a second, Samantha.
SGSamantha Grover
What is it, Dad?
Sweetheart, you know I love you, right?
Of course I do.
All right. And you know that if I could have, I would've done anything in the world to keep that stuff from happening to you. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to change that now. The only thing that can change now is you. And that's gonna take time. Just like your body had to heal, your mind has to heal, too, and you might have another bad night or two. I'm not gonna promise you you're gonna forget all about this one day, but I can promise you it's gonna get easier. You know, I can promise you that we will get through this as a family. Your mother, your brother, me and you. And I want you to know that whether I'm in the next room or not, I'm always there for you, little mama. Always.
All right. [father and daughter embrace]
You hungry?
I'm starving!
You know, Steve, if I didn't know better, I would swear there was something on your mind.
[sighs] You want to do this with me? You want to talk circles with me, huh? You know I got questions.
And I'm not gonna duck them anymore. You want answers- I'm here to give you answers. Fire away.
Did you know about my mother's relationship with Wo Fat?
I knew that she took care of him after his mother was killed, until the CIA found out about it and they forced her to abandon him.. and I promised her I would never tell you that.
So why are you telling me now?
Because you deserve to know the truth.
Okay. Here's the thing, Joe-- I already got the truth, and I got from the person I least expected it from.
Wo Fat?
Yeah.
And I bet that pissed you off.
Well, I put a bullet in his head. What do you think?
Steve, I believe that your mother always did what she thought was right.
What my mother did was self-serving, and it was all to cover up the murder of an innocent woman. Wo Fat's mother was an innocent woman.
Doris had an assignment- that death was collateral.
She covered it up, and that is a crime.
So I tell you where she is, and what-- what are you gonna do then? Are you gonna go arrest your own mother?
Are you gonna tell me where she is? You just finished telling me you're done ducking my questions. [gets startled by wrecking ball broadsiding the car]
It's gonna take more than a wrecking ball to stop Steve.
[one of Dr Rennick's assistants talk with Danny and Kono about the potential of a weaponized H5N4 virus]
AAssistant
You do understand that if there's a widespread outbreak of this virus, we'd be looking at a slate wiper.
Slate wiper?
AAssistant
From all the projections we've done, a weaponized H5N4 would decimate the population.
Of Oahu?
AAssistant
The world. [they see a computer simulation where Oahu is gradually swamped with red dots indicating cases and the world turns red as well]
