[as McGarrett prepares to swim to the ship]
Good luck, Aquaman!

He's armed. He's holding seven hostages, behavior's pretty erratic.
Oh, you mean opposed to most hostage takers that are calm and composed?
I thought I told you to stay put.
EMEd McKay
I’m an old man. I don’t hear so good.
[after listening to Danny rant and rave angrily and loudly] [deadpan] I'm so glad you're not a hothead. I would hate to work with someone like that.
[Steve and Danny are undercover as art collectors and see two security guards in the room]
So, uh, just a question. If things go bad which one of these guys do you want?
I'll take the ugly one.
Oh, that's good. The both of them.
[Danny has the suspect tied to the front of his car and is driving haphazardly through the streets.]
Just for the record. If I pulled something like this, you would be reading me the Riot Act about proper police procedure.
No. I'd probably just arrest you.
[The suspect is banging the windshield and screaming.]
When compared to this, hanging a guy off a roof and throwing a guy into a shark cage seems pretty tame.
You know what, I disagree. I think the shark cage is way worse than this.
Whatever. You're wrong. I'm just saying, to be clear, next time I get a free pass, ok?
You look horrible, Sang Min.
Been in solitary for thirty days. What's your excuse?
Must be all the sunshine I'm getting on the outside.
I came to ask you a question.
Well, if it’s about the prom, I’m flattered, but I already have a date.

You are to find Atwater's killer and assist in protecting General Pak and his family when they arrive.
I'm sorry, did you say "assist"? Who am I assisting? Uh, this is–– [sees his former SEAL buddy Nick Taylor] No way! What's up, Bullfrog? [exchanges a hug with Nick]
NTNick Taylor
Smooth Dog.
Been a while.
NNick
It's been a long time, man.
[to Danny] Uh, Nick, Nick served under me in the SEALs.
NNick
Did three years in the 'Stan.
The 'Stan? What is the 'Stan?
Afghanistan.
[...]
LLaura
They hired Nick's firm to protect General Pak and his family.
Of course they did.
Wow. So you got genocide, ethnic cleansing. It's a great client you got.
NNick
Well, you know, my team and I are here to do a job, just like you.
No, no, not-not just like me. See, I'm a cop. I don't get to choose who I protect. You do, and you choose this animal, and I'm sure our pay grades, our rates are a little different.
[Steve notices a New Jersey postcard, but Danny had to bring up his old eating joints]
Do you realize how much of your life revolves around food?
Do you realize how much of your life revolves around armed conflict?
Let me ask you a question: Where do people from New Jersey vacation?
Um, I don't know. I-I would imagine they vacation all over the place.
Okay. And you're you're aware the fact that perhaps many people from New Jersey vacation here in Hawaii?
I'm sure some misguided people do, sure, yeah.
Okay, good. And how many Hawaiians do you think vacation in New Jersey?
I don't know.
I can help you with that answer if you want. The answer is zero, Danny, because nobody here, except you, wants to be there, okay? Because aside from a couple of great singers, New Jersey doesn't exactly scream––
[interrupts] Oh, oh..Whoa, a few great singers?!! Sinatra, Springsteen...
Right.
A few great sing––Jonathan Bon Jovi.
I'm sorry, Bon Jovi?!
Absolutely Bon Jovi.
You serious?
He's right up there. "You Give Love a Bad Name", "Wanted Dead or Alive"...
Now you're giving me song titles.
I'm giving you classic song titles!
[after finding out Nick used to be Special Activities Division] I thought you guys were Navy SEALs?
When you have certain specialties, you can be recruited into different units as needed.
Are you gonna answer any one of my questions?
What do you want to know?
What was his specialty?
It's classified information, Danny.
Okay. What was your specialty?
I can't tell you that either.
Okay, please, you have done this before. Where was that? When exactly was that?
[looks around uncomfortably] I worked the other side.
The other side's a sniper rifle. Was that your specialty? [Steve does not reply and instead half-smiles at him]
[Having escaped assassination at the hands of Nick Taylor's team, Steve brings everybody to his house and asks General Pak why he came to the US]
GPGeneral Pak
Why do you think I brought my family here?
I don't know. Because you're a mass murderer?
PPak
My family's here because I'm seeking political asylum. That's why you couldn't postpone the trip.
That's why everybody's trying to kill you.
Let me get this straight. So you commit all these horrible, horrible crimes, and then you come over to the United States, and you say, "Hey, I'd like to make a deal now. Please."
PPak
I'm going to testify at the UN against a military junta and my chairman. I am going to admit to the world what I've done and pay for the crimes I've committed.
Well, that's that's good, man. You should've told us, okay? Somebody should have told us.
PPak
The information was too dangerous.
That information is more dangerous if I don't have it! My entire team could have been killed. Not to mention your family.
PPak
My testimony will end the war!! The suffering. You save me, and my family, and you save a country.
Howzit, ma haole?
[greets Kamekona] Baby Huey, it's good. [to Steve] What's the matter with you, huh? We got a situation. Where've you been? I’ve been calling you like you owe me money.
What are you talking about? I didn't hear my phone.
Called you like five, six times.
I believe you. I didn't hear my phone, I left it right over here. [points to where Kamekona is sitting] Where's my phone? You see my phone?
[pulls Steve's cellphone from under his butt] Oh. Oh sorry.
You didn't feel that vibrating? Ever?
Oh, that's what it was.
[The GPS leads the Five-O team to the harbor]
Anyone up for a swim?
CChin
Ah, forgot to bring my board shorts.
Looks like the rookie is going swimming.
I'll go in with you.
Very nice of you.
Sure you don't want to come for a swim?
No, you go ahead, uh with your pants. I'll just be here with a dry towel.
What are the odds, huh? Guy gets a bullet in the dome, goes through four hours of brain surgery, and he survives, yet 150 people die every year from falling coconuts. It's a fact. I read it online.
What, so now you're not going to let Grace go near coconut trees?
Not without a helmet, I'm not.
