CClara
So, Captain, I really appreciate you showing me around. Well But I'm a little old for a babysitter. I mean, I loved going to the police museum, and the M.E. was riveting. But I was kind of hoping for something, you know, a little more adventurous.
Well, I hate to disappoint, but, uh, me taking you into the middle of a dangerous situation...
CClara
That's not gonna happen?
You know that's not gonna happen.
CClara
Not even, like, a sketchy donut shop or something?
I see where that boy of yours gets his bite.
I figure we ought to get you guys a Five-O Grover signal. That way, you can just throw it up in the sky when you need me.
Trust me, nobody wants to see your name in lights.
Yeah, and nobody on the planet wants to see you in tights.
[To prevent his parents from a divorce, Danny has brought them together at home with a living room set up like the Italian restaurant they went to on their first date. Some things have to be said though]
CWClara Williams
You really hurt me, you know.
EWEddie Williams
I'm sorry. I love you, I miss you and I want you to come home.
CClara
[laughs] Well, that's not gonna do it. You can't just come here and say you're sorry and expect me to go running back home. Why didn't you call me?
EEddie
I must have had the phone in my hand at least a dozen times, I swear I did, but...
EEddie
[sighs] I was embarrassed and ashamed. I was confused.
CClara
Confused about what?
EEddie
About everything. You see, for more than half of my life, that firehouse has been my world. I had someplace to go every day. I had a purpose. Then [sighs] one day, I just age out. And they throw me a nice dinner and they send me on my way with a shiny plaque. You have no idea what it's like to have something like that taken away to-to feel like, to feel like you just don't matter anymore.
CClara
Oh, you think so? I know exactly what it feels like to not matter anymore, but I missed you, I missed you all the time, and I really thought that when you retired, that it would be our time again. We wouldn't have the kids, and we can fall in love all over again and be romantic and be a couple and have a good time, but you made me feel like I didn't matter at all.
EEddie
Oh, Clara, that's not true. I realize that you're all that matters. If I could, I'd go back and I would treat you like the princess that you are. [laughs softly;stands] I, uh ... I came here to get you back. [kneels and holds her hand] And I'm not leaving without you. 'Cause the truth is, I'm nothing without you. [kisses hand]
CClara
I love you. [they kiss]
[Steve meets a certain CIA official over coordinates he and Jerry figured out on the Champion toolbox, but the official is rather uncooperative]
SCSam Connors
[looks at map] It's a grave.
It's a grave. Okay. Whose grave? Who's buried here?
CConnors
I'm done talking. I've already said enough.
[stops him] Listen to me. What you say here stays here. It stays between us. I'm not going to do anything to jeopardize your career.
CConnors
[shrugs off Steve] It's not my career that I'm worried about. [leaves]
[at the Kukui High Class 1989 reunion, Chin Ho reacquaints with a classmate]
NNani
We should go on a ride-along sometime.
Actually, we don't do those things. That's HPD.
NNani
Oh. Well, that's okay. 'Cause I actually meant ride-along in the car, to a bar. There's a great new place that just opened on Merchant Street.
[sees her leave; to Chin Ho] Naughty Nani. "Most likely to be married five times."
She just dumped number six.
Ooh. An opening. I got a shot. [sees Chin Ho's doubtful face] What?
[At the hospital, Chin Ho's batchmate Alan Lim wakes up with handcuffs]
ALAlan Lim
What the hell's this? What's going on?
We recovered Corey's body, Alan. He probably looks a little different than when you and Bradley buried him in the maze 25 years ago.
AAlan
I don't know anyone named Corey.
Sure you do. Laura knew him, too. In fact, Laura liked him. Didn't she? She liked him a lot. That's why he's dead, isn't it, Alan? You knew that she had a thing for Corey, but you were too much of a coward to confront him by yourself. You needed Bradley to help you.
AAlan
You know what? If that's where you found the body, maybe you should go ask Bradley how it got there.
Why don't you ask him yourself. [cops bring in Bradley Richmond]
BRBradley Richmond
It's over. I told them everything.
AAlan
Why? Why would you do that?
BBradley
You killed Laura. That's my sister.
AAlan
She was going to go to the cops. I have a family. I have a life! [sniffles] She wanted to ruin everything.
BBradley
No. All she wanted to do was tell the truth about what happened that night. She couldn't live with the guilt anymore.
AAlan
We all swore that we would never tell anyone what happened. You swore to me!
BBradley
We were just a bunch of kids. Alan, we were scared. We didn't want to go to jail.
AAlan
It was an accident. We just wanted to teach him a lesson. Rough Corey up a little bit so that he would stay away from Laura. but it got out of control. I slugged him, then Corey, he-he he fell and hit his head on a rock. There was blood everywhere. He was dead. And there was nothing that any of us could do to change that.
[At Kamekona's, the gang pore over Jerry's Kukui '89 yearbook and sees Chin Ho's picture]
Ah, there he is. [everyone laughs at Chin's pic]
What a goofball. What-what is that? You got the fencing team, you're in the band, and look at this.
Uh, mathletes? Junior mathletes? It's amazing.
I had a wide variety of interests, okay? And don't forget QB1 and captain of the football team.
All right. What about you, Jerry?
Whoo! "Most likely to be abducted by aliens".
It's not too late. You all right?
[reads dedication] "Don't ever stop asking questions. The world needs more people like you." Laura wrote that.
[while trapped under the rubble, McGarrett and Danny talk to ease the tension, and suddenly Amber is brought up]
Yeah, I'll probably screw it up like I do everything else. Right? Not in my DNA to be happy.
I didn't mean that. That's not what I meant.
No, I'm officially agreeing with you. There is something wrong with the way that I am built. I-I can't, uh I can't just enjoy happiness like regular people, you know?
You don't think you're being a little hard on yourself?
No, I don't. When I was a kid, my parents would go out to eat dinner. If they were late coming home, I used to imagine that they died in a car wreck, just 'cause they were 15 minutes late and I used to talk to God and beg him. I said, "Please just take my dad, not my mom." 'Cause I couldn't live without my mom. mean, every time something good happens in my life, I-I just I think of when it's gonna end. That's all I can think about.
I know it's not normal. Listen to this. On my wedding day, I'm looking at Rachel, just about to say "I do," and all I can see is the day she's gonna serve me with divorce papers. No joke. And I-I don't know, man. The only sustained happiness I ever felt in my life so far is Grace. And, you know, it's just a matter of time before she turns 18, and then she's out the door and she marries some schmuck. I don't know.
You got to change, man. You can't live like that.
Well, I'd like very much to change. It's just not so simple, you know?
Take Amber, all right? Start small. Instead of pushing her away, like you always do, fixate on how she's gonna break your heart, she's gonna destroy your life bring her in, bring her closer.
All right, I'll give it a shot.
I said I'll give it a shot. I make it out of here alive, I'll give it a shot.
[McGarrett has discovered who set up the carpark bombing and he's not happy]
ECEdward Cobb
Looks like you had a bad day, Commander.
Not as bad as you would've liked. I know you set me up to keep me quiet about Cambodia, but I'm still here.
CCobb
Question is: have you gotten the message?
No. That's pretty clever. They would've pulled three bodies out of that rubble, assumed that Dekker's brother was killed for payback and Five-O got caught in the middle. No one ever would've suspected that this was all about keeping me from asking questions you didn't want answered.
CCobb
You should've listened to Sam, left this alone.
An innocent man died today. For no reason. And dozens, dozens of innocent lives were put in danger, all to clean up a mess that you made 40 years ago. Now, what happened in Cambodia? Who was buried in that grave?
CCobb
Consider your next move very carefully.
You consider yours. I still got DNA from that grave, and I'm gonna run it, so you might as well tell me who it belongs to.
CCobb
Lei Kuan Fat. Wo Fat's mother.
Why would you cover that up?
CCobb
Because it wasn't supposed to be her in that grave. Our target was Wo Fat's father, but the op went bad. My agent on the ground disappeared, leaving me to clean up her mess.
That agent was my mother, but she went on to work for the agency, while you were forced out. She didn't botch the job. You ordered an unsanctioned hit that went bad. Wo Fat's father is still alive, isn't he? Do you have any idea the fallout if that ever came to light? Where is he?
CCobb
Sit down. I'll tell you. [tries to pull out pistol but gets killed by Steve]
[After some prodding by Chin Ho at spearfishing, Lou Grover dives down and catches a big fish]
Take a look at that sucker.
How many did McGarrett get on his first try, you say?
But I'll tell you what that's three times bigger than anything he caught.
Take a picture and send it to him.
Oh, come on. You sure you want to kick up that hornet's nest?
Oh, hell yeah, I do! Come on, just take a picture.
[as Lou poses] All right. All right. All right. Ready? Smile.
Physical therapy appointment huh?
Yeah, yeah, my mandatory hour of joy with Nurse Ratchet, thanks to you.
What, you're gonna blame that building collapsing on us on me?
And how exactly am I responsible?
Well, about four years ago, you can knocking on my door and told me that I had no choice but to work with you, so I figured everything that's terrible that happened to me since was your fault. You're like a cloud, a dark cloud, that never goes away.
Do me a favor, when you see Nurse Ratchet, have her, uh, check your head while she works the rest of you over, 'cause you got some damage up there, too.
Well, excuse me, Jacques Cousteau. You know, jealousy is an ugly cloak, my friend. You do not wear it well.
"Jealousy"? No, no, no. Look, that fish was probably old, depressed, you know, maybe a little, uh, senile, you know, swimming around looking for a tiger shark to end his days, and then bumped into you.
A senile, depressed fish?
[smirks] You are some piece of work, McGarrett, you know that?
[Steve tries to talk some sense into Dawn Hatfield in the interrogation room]
There was enough hardware in that house to make three bombs, Dawn. Why don't you tell me your plan? Maybe detonate an IED on the road leading into the Air Force base? Wipe out some innocent soldiers, then what, a couple of secondary devices to shred up the first responders? That sound about right?
DHDawn Hatfield
"Innocent" soldiers? They drop bombs thousands of feet in the air, killing innocent women and children like cowards!
Cowards? You want to talk about cowards? You should have said so. Okay, let's talk about cowards. Why don't we start with your boy Nazaria, your mentor? Let's start with him. Where is he? He's hiding in a cave in the mountains of Yemen. You think that traitor cares about you? You think that piece of garbage gives a damn that your friends are dead and that you're gonna spend the rest of your God-forsaken life rotting in some federal prison?
DDawn
Muhammed Nazaria is a warrior; he's a soldier of God, pursuer of the truth and the light, okay? He is the leader!
Leaders lead from the front. And I don't see him, do you? Where is he? Don't you get it, Dawn? They found you, okay? Because they look for people like you. They look for people who are vulnerable, people who are emotionally fragile, who have a big wound on the inside, who are trying to get back at somebody for something. And they make you feel like you're an important part of something, a cause a cause bigger than you. So big, in fact, that it's worth giving your life for.
DDawn
I am a soldier of Allah, and we must fight you as you fight us. Those of us that believe must fight in the cause of God!
What are you talking about? These words that are coming out of your mouth, they're not even your words! They're phrases that have been cherry-picked from a holy book and tailored to fit the lies they've told you. Listen to me, all right? I get that it was rough growing up, your mom was alcoholic, your old man, he was never around, I get it. How old were you when he died? You were, like, eight or nine, right? I lost my old man, too. I know what it's like to lose a parent.
DDawn
I didn't lose him. He died, okay? He died fighting your imperialistic war against the peaceful children of Allah!
You're wrong. Your dad was a hero, okay? He was a patriot, a soldier fighting for his country, Dawn. You gotta remember him. What would he make of all this? You gotta know, somewhere inside you, that this is wrong. Some shred of regret.
DDawn
My only regret is that you stopped me.
