Hawaii Five-0 (2010–…): Season 1, Episode 16 - E Malama - full transcript

Julie.

The HPD escort's here.

Stay here.

Wait till I come for you.

I really want
to thank you, Frank.

I know how long you've been
away from your family,

looking after me.

It's the job.

But I appreciate that.

The running...

I can't do it anymore.



After you testify today,
the running stops.

You're going to get
a fresh start, Julie.

I'll be right back.

Frank Moore, U.S. Marshals.

It's good to meet you.

I'm Officer
Tim Callahan.

This is my partner,
Officer Joe Lee.

We're here
to escort you

and the witness
to the courthouse.

She rides with me
in the unmarked.

You guys
are out front.

You got a radio for me?

Yeah. Of course.

Man, when you guys
say remote location,



you're not kidding.

I'll go get her.

She's in here.

♪ Hawaii Five-O 1x16 ♪
E Malama
Original Air Date on February 7, 2010

Mmm.

Chin Ho Kelly?

Yo.

That is,
without a doubt,

the greatest thing
I've ever tasted in my life.

This should be illegal,
it's so good.

What the hell is it?

Coco puffs.

Liliha Bakery
sells, like,

7,000 of these a day.

It's genius.

It's amazing. What is it?
Butter, cream,

chocolate,
a little more butter.

You know, I always thought
that I wanted my last meal

to be my mother's lasagna,

but that is out.
It's out. No more.

I want this.
I want no dessert.

I want no appetizer.
Just a big box of these.

Nice.

Wasn't that the mother
of your child?

You know what the greatest
invention of all time is?

What?

It's the
"ignore" button.

You know, I have a theory--
whoever invented

the modern cellular phone
also had an ex-wife.

I thought you guys
were doing better, though.

Yeah. But she's still
married to another guy.

You know what I mean?

I mean, it's a lot easier
being angry at one person.

Besides, Rachel and I,
we have our own language.

It's an understanding.

She ducks my call. I leave
a message with a question.

She calls me back.
I duck that call.

She leaves an answer.

We don't have to argue
in front of Grace.

It all works out.

Yeah.

Kono?

Let's go, guys.

We got something.

All right,
HPD assigned two officers

to escort a federal marshal
and a high value witness

named Julie Masters.

The federal marshal's
been watching her

in a safe house in Kahuku,

and she's the key witness
in a murder trial

against this guy,

Aaron Brenner.

He's a major distributor

for the Baja Drug Cartel.

Now, the prosecution
cannot make a case

without Julie,
and without a witness,

the judge is going to be forced

to release Brenner on bail
at 5:00 p.m. today.

Okay, so the cartel's going
to do everything they can

to keep this girl out of court?

Absolutely. They've been trying

to lock this monster up
for ten years.

And Julie's testimony can do it.

All right, where
do we come in?

HPD's lost contact
with the two SWAT guys

they sent in to pick her up.

I mean, there's no comms
on the radio.

There's no cell service
that deep in Kahuku.

What about the marshal?

There's no comms
on his sat phone.

Okay, so what are we,
an escort or a rescue mission?

Right now we're both. Okay?

We need to find her,

we need to secure her,
and then we need

to transport her
to the courthouse

by 5:00 p.m. to testify.

All right?

Bing.

DANNY
This is Detective Danny Williams.

I'm not available.
Please leave a message.

Detective Williams,
this is your ex-wife.

I need you to pick up Grace
at 8:00 instead of 9:00

on Saturday because Stan
and I are going to an event.

Oh, my God!

Stay there, sweetheart.

Get out of the car.

No, I'm not leaving my daughter.

Get out of the car now.

Okay, Grace.
Get over the seat.

Get over of the
seat, Grace.

Climb over the seat now.

You okay?

RACHEL Detective
Williams, this is your ex-wife.

I need you to pick up Grace
at 8:00 instead of 9:00

on Saturday because Stan
and I are going to an event.

Oh, my God!

Stay there, sweetheart.

Danny?

MAN
Get out of the car.

No, I'm not leaving my daughter.

Get out of the car now.

Grace, get over the seat.
Get over the seat now!

Danny.
Grace. Where's Grace?

Um, she's okay.

We were carjacked.

Um, they had guns.

We're at the police station.

Don't move. Don't move.

I'll be there
in five minutes.

Hey. What? What?

Grace and Rachel got carjacked.

Are they okay?

I don't know.

Listen, you need anything,
you call, all right?

Anything.
All right. I got to go.

Go, go, go, go, go.

All right, uh, let's go.

Secure the perimeter.
We're going in.

Guys.

Chin, cover me.

I got a body.

I got you.

Who is it?

It's the marshal. He's gone.

Kono. Go.

Clear.

All right. We're looking
for two guys, both big.

Size 11.
There's no forced entry,

which means the marshal
left the door open for them.

He didn't think
they were a threat.

It's cause they
were wearing HPD uniforms.

Check the car.

Clear.

Boot prints

from the two assailants.

And Julie Masters's heels.

What do we got?

Looks like our witness
was a fighter.

I think she hurt one of them.

Good for her.

Nine mil. Three casings.

This is her print.

So she burns the shooter

and dives through the window.

I really hope she's alive,
'cause I want to meet her.

Yeah. Looks like
she cut herself pretty good.

Chin.

Hey, Steve.

I'm back by the blue and whites.

You need to see this.

What you got?

You kill a federal marshal

and two officers,
the only question is

how are you going
to get put down?

So she's out there

somewhere, alone.

And being hunted
by professional assassins.

So we have to find her
before they do,

and make sure
she testifies today.

Where do we start?

All right.

Water. MREs.

GPS. Sat phones.

Okay? Everything we need to
track them in this terrain.

HPD is en route
with search dogs.

Hey. Just got word
that air support's lifting off

from Honolulu
in ten minutes.

They can't find a place

to land a chopper
around here.

Nearest LZ is
three miles away.

That's fine.

In this dense
foliage and canopy,

our best shot at finding
her is tracking, anyway.

Chin, make sure these
are good to go.

Copy that.

Kono?
Yeah?

Contact the U.S. Attorney, okay?

Find out everything you can

about this defendant
Aaron Brenner.

Then check with the DEA.

I want to know
who the Baja Cartel

contracts its hits through.

We need to know what we're
up against out there.

All right. You got it.

Guys, come on in.

We need you guys
to lock down the crime scene

in case the witness or the
killers double back. Okay?

The witness comes back,

you get her straight
to the courthouse.

The shooters come back,

you put them down,

and you make sure
they stay down.

Grace?

Come here.

Come here.

By the time I saw him,
he'd had opened the door.

They had guns.

I heard everything.

Are you okay?

Mrs. Edwards?

We've recovered your Mercedes.

Your purse is intact,

money and credit
cards all there.

Nothing seems
to be stolen.

Well, that's a relief.
Thank you.

Mercedes?
You were driving Stan's car?

Yeah.

He's in Thailand
on business.

Sometimes we
switch cars.

Let me talk to you for a second.

I'm gonna be right there
talking to your mom, okay?

You can see us.

I want you to get

all this guy's information,

see what he's doing, okay?

All right.

Come here.

What if they
had taken Grace?

They didn't. You did a good job
and you protected her,

okay?

What's going on?

Okay, um...

armed carjacking
is a ten-year sentence.

Okay? Rachel, anybody
willing to do that,

willing to take that risk,

they're not gonna just dump
the car an hour later.

Okay? You jack
a car for money.

Your hundred thousand
dollar Mercedes,

it gets put on a boat
to China,

and somebody
gets a fast $20,000.

They don't return the car,
they don't leave your purse,

they don't leave your cash.

So why?

I mean, there's
no profit motive.

Why would
someone do this?

Mm, I don't know.
What are you saying?

Anything at all strange

going on with Stan
at home? Any...

No.

You sure?

Yes.

Okay, 'cause I think that
there's a very high possibility

that someone
is sending a message,

a threat, telling Stan
that they can get to you

and they can
get to Grace.

Stan is my husband,
he's Grace's stepfather,

and... he is a
businessman.

He's not involved
in anything illegal.

I would like to
take Grace home.

Okay, I'll drive you.

Prosecuting Attorney Roberts.

Officer Kalakaua, I got your message.
How can I help you?

I'm gonna need a list of the people who
knew about the witness transfer today.

It's a short list-- my people
and a few high-level DEA agents.

I'll have my office

send it over to you
right away.

Okay, I'm also
gonna need full access

to your computer system.
Of course.

I'll get you
anything you need.

You've got three dead.

How do you know

Julie's still alive?
We don't, but she got out of the house

against all odds,
and if she's out there,

we'll find her.

This is what happened

to the last three people

who were scheduled
to testify against the cartel.

How does someone
like Julie Masters

get involved with
the Baja Cartel?

She was an accountant at
an import company in Honolulu.

She didn't know
it was a front

for Aaron Brenner's
drug operation.

One night a dockworker
is loading crates

into a container ship,
discovers what they're

really shipping.
Cocaine.

Exactly.

Aaron Brenner executed
the man in cold blood,

and Julie witnessed
the murder.

He tried to kill her;
she ran.

She's been running
ever since.

If Julie's not in that courtroom
by 5:00 p.m. today,

Brenner's a free man.

How do you know
they went this way?

Tracking humans in terrain
like this is about one thing--

seeing what's
out of context in nature

and knowing what caused it.

Like that flat overturned rock
back up there.

It would've taken
a 200-pound man

running downhill
to do that.

That rock
also indicated

they're about an
hour ahead of us.

Really? The rock
told you that?

Hey.

See that leaf on the ground?
Yeah.

It's still green.

It was just broken
off-- cover me.

Walk towards me.

I will not fire a warning shot.

Julie.

Julie, put down
the weapon, okay?

Put down the weapon and walk

towards me--
we're cops.

So were the last two.

This might sting.

There's no way Aaron Brenner's
going to get away with this.

You get me to that courtroom,

and I'll testify.

Chin will get
you there.

Listen, don't use

your gun unless
you have to, okay?

You don't want to draw
attention to yourself.

Julie, let me have your shoes.

Take 'em off, give
me your shoes.

Chin...

follow the ridgeline,
okay, head to Makai.

It'll lead you
back to the road

and it'll give me a
better vantage point

on the guys when they
pick up your trail.

Copy.

Why aren't you coming with us?

I'm gonna hunt down the guys

that have been trying
to hurt you.

Some guys... they're just
born without a fear gene.

Aaron Brenner.

Oh, you must be
my conjugal visit.

You ordered the murders
of two HPD officers

and a federal marshal.

And you can prove that?

Julie Masters can,

and she'll be
here soon.

My partners will make sure of that.
Get away from my client.

I can't wait to see the look
in your eyes when she walks

into that courtroom
and testifies.

If she testifies.

Sheriffs, take
Mr. Brenner

out of here and put him
in the holding area now.

I'm lodging a
complaint against you

for harassment
with the judge.

You know, some people have
trouble with my name,

so let me help you out.

It's Kono Kalakaua.

K-A-L-A-K-A-U-A.

Don't suppose you left
that door open.

No.

911 operator.

What is your emergency?

This is Detective
Danny Williams.

My badge number is 7576.

I need two squad cars

to 4347 Summer Street,
Kuli'ou'ou--

possible burglary
in progress.

Roger that.

They're on their way.

Thank you.

Okay, listen to me.

I want you to drive
around the block.

I'll call you when
it's safe, okay?

Okay.

You,

you're gonna go for a little
ride with your mom, okay?

I'll be out in five minutes.

I'll be back faster than you can
say, "I love you, Danno," okay?

♪ ♪

Just like the
car, it seems

like nothing of
value was taken.

Stan's office looks
like a tornado hit it.

So why don't you go inside,
pack a bag for you and Grace?

What? Where...?

I want you to go

to a hotel for a couple
of days until I figure out

what is going on here.

Stan will be home
in an hour

and we'll figure out
what we're going to do.

Okay, Stan does not
get to make decisions

regarding the safety
of my daughter,

so she can go to
the Hilton with you

or she can come on what
is affectionately known

as a ride along
with her father.

Okay?

I'll pack.

But I don't want her
to see the house.

It will only make her more
scared than she already is.

Rachel.

Whatever is going on here,
I am telling you

that Stan is
in the middle of it.

Okay?

Danny,

are Grace and Rachel okay?

Yeah, they are safe,
but I am sick.

I'm in the middle
of a panic attack.

Okay, this little incident
just shaved five years

off my life.

What's up with the witness?

You find her yet?

Yeah, yeah,
but don't worry about that.

Okay, you stay with your family.

Don't come out here.
Okay, I'm not.

I'm actually on my way
to the airport.

What are you talking about,
airport?

Why, you going someplace?

Well, Stan...
Stan comes home and, uh,

go offer him a lift home.

Hey...

Danny, what are you doing?

I'm not doing anything.

Listen, okay...

I may not be able to see you,
okay, but I can hear you,

and you have a tone.

Tone. I don't have a tone.

I don't have a tone.
Okay, you say I have a face?

You, my friend, you have a tone,

okay, and it's a tone that says
"I'm gonna hit somebody."

Now, what's going on?

Okay, I think that Stan--

in fact I know that Stan
has something to do

with what happened
to Rachel and Grace.

Okay.
Is that based in anything

other than the fact
that you hate the man?

Yes. It is, okay?

They stole his car.
They-They got his car.

Not hers, okay?

And they returned it in an hour,
and they didn't take anything.

All right, the house
was broken into, ransacked,

and just like the car,
they took nothing.

Okay? Does that
sound normal to you?

All right, my daughter...

my daughter sleeps
in that house, okay?

And-and if Stan has anything
to do with it,

I am going to encourage him
to tell me

what he knows.

Okay, listen to me. All right?

I get that you're pissed,
all right? I can hear that.

But whatever you do,

do not touch him, okay?

Do not touch him.

Yeah, I understand,
but you got to understand

that I am a father.

All right?
And this is my daughter

we're talking about.

Yeah. You're also a cop
with a gun, okay?

And when those worlds cross,
it gets messy, Danny.

Yeah, well, I'm not the one
who crossed them.

Just don't-don't worry about me.
Please. I will handle it.

Just get your witness
to court, okay?

No. No. Hey, hey.
Hey, hey. Danny.

Danny?

You must think
I'm an awful person

for running back to the mainland
when the first trial started.

I don't know
anything about you.

I have no idea
why you left,

but I'm sure you have
your reasons.

It's my sister.

She's five years
younger than me.

She's my best friend.

All right. So you wanted
to see your sister

and you knew if
you testified,

they'd put you in
witness protection?

I get it.

When they first diagnosed
Lisa on the spectrum,

I was too young to know

what it all meant.

She has autism?

My mom's been
taking care of her,

but it's getting
too hard for her.

I came here to
finish school

and then I was supposed
to take care of her.

Why would you come back?

I didn't think Lisa
understood any of this.

And then one night, it was
late-- it was after 11:00,

and she usually goes
to bed at 9:00--

she just looked at me,

and she said that I had
to go back to Hawaii

and make sure that the bad man
didn't hurt anyone else.

Oh.

You're a brave woman.

Three more people are dead,

and I may never see my sister.

I have to get back
to that courthouse.

All right, let's go.

Okay.

We're more than halfway now.

You're doing great.

Get down!

Hold on.

Hold on. Okay.

I'm going to pull you up
on three.

Okay?

One, two,

three.

Keep going straight ahead.

I'll be right behind you.

It's okay.
It's okay. It's me.

Now, I've pointed him
in another direction,

but he's going
to figure it out soon enough.

We've just got
to keep moving, okay?

Straight ahead.
Let's go.

You're up.

Good.

I wanted to ask you
a couple questions.

How many of you
were sent to Hawaii?

Seriously? You going to make me
ask you twice right now?

Three of us were sent here.

Where did you fly in from?

San Jose.

Costa Rica.

See how easy that was?

Please.

I told you
what you want to know.

I'm not going
to torture you, okay?

I'm going to save your life.

You have a collapsed lung.

I need to cut a
hole in your chest

and reinflate your lung,

or you're going to die.
All right?

You may want to chew on that.

Don't make any noise.

Kono.

Did you hear from Chin Ho?

No.

Why? You don't have eyes on him?

No. We split up,
but he has the witness.

Don't worry, he'll be fine.
What do you got?

I still have no ID

on the hit squad.
Any luck on your end?

Yeah. I disabled
one of the attackers.

He confessed to
being part of the team

that flew in from
Costa Rica yesterday.

Okay. I'm checking flight
manifests from Costa Rica.

He said there were
three assassins, okay?

Which means we're looking
for four people--

three shooters and a cleaner.

Cleaner? What's a cleaner?

It's another assassin.
My SEAL team used

to hunt squads like this.
The shooters don't know

the identity of the cleaner,

so if they get captured,
there's still another shooter

in place to pull the trigger.

All right.
There was one flight in

from Costa Rica
to Honolulu yesterday.

And...

three of the passengers
paid in cash.

Okay, can you pull them up

on the security cam?

I got them.

You know what?

I'm not seeing the fourth guy
who could be the cleaner.

Run facial recognition.

Go through the records.

Look for any clues
that might lead

to the cleaner.

In the meantime,
have EMS send a medevac.

Tell them to insert
and then proceed on foot

to coordinates 27.97

-156.95.

Will do.

All right.

Hey, there. Hilton Hawaiian
Village, room 713. Thanks.

Just thank God you and Grace
are okay, baby.

Yeah.

All right, listen.
I'm on the way.

I'll be there soon.

Hey.

Danny?

Yeah. I got to talk to you.

I'm not asking you.
Come on.

Come on.

You know, Stan,

when I had a daughter,

I knew that there
were certain things

I was going to
have to deal with.

Texting.
An obscene clothing budget.

A stroke-inducing

cell phone bill, regardless
of the plan that I chose,

but I'll tell you,

there is one thing that
did not make the list. Okay.

Carjacking.

Carjacking did
not make the list

of things that I thought
that I would encounter

with my eight-year-old daughter.

So I am going
to ask you one time.

What kind of trouble

are you in?

This has nothing
to do with me, Danny.

I'm as shocked as you are.

Shut up.

Shut up. Okay?

I want you to know something.

Normally, I would just pull over
and give you the worst beating

you ever had in your entire life
until you told me the truth,

but I am working,
I am working

on my anger management issues,
and I am learning

conflict resolution,
you understand?

And I recognize something.
I recognize,

although you are trying
to hide it,

you are very scared right
now, as you should be,

but I am going to give you

the benefit of the doubt
and I am going to remind you

that because of you,
people put guns

near my daughter.

I went
to the housing commissioner,

Bruce Hoffman,

for permits
for my new property.

Guy hands me a menu like we're
at Cipriani's in New York.

Everything's got a price.

Every time I agreed to a number,

he jacked it up
to a higher one.

So I taped the conversation,

told him I'd
have him indicted.

So that's what
they're looking for. The tapes?

Danny, I swear to God,
I never...

Why didn't you just come to me?

Are you kidding?

No, I'm not.

Look,

things haven't been great

with Rachel and me lately.

But I love her, Danny,
and I love Grace.

This deal could make a lot
of things right for us.

Okay. Uh, listen.

Grace and Rachel are going
to be staying at the Hilton...

You really think...

Hey. They jacked your car.

They broke into
your house.

That is my daughter.
So, yes, Stan, I think.

Here you go. Keep the rest.

Aren't you the
housing commissioner?

Bruce Hoffman.

Hey.

I need this room.
Come on.

Come on, come on.
Come on, come on.

Go ahead. Come
on, out, out.

I'm Detective Danny Williams.

I am also the father
of that little girl

that was in the
Mercedes that you had

carjacked this morning,

sending a message
to Stan Edwards.

I have the tapes now.
He doesn't have them anymore.

I'm going to ask
you a question.

What do you think would happen

if those tapes got out?

Huh?

Look, look.
I... I don't know anything

about what
you're talking about,

Detective...

Williams.

Williams.

You can get my badge number
off your forehead.

I have those tapes,
and will expose you,

and if you ever, ever

put a gun in the same
zip code as my daughter,

I swear to God,
I will kill you.

You understand?

Yeah.
Yeah?

Yes.
Good.

Stay close.

Okay.

Okay.

Damn it.

Hold on.

Can't you just call
for a helicopter?

My phone

went down the cliff
with my gun.

We've only got an hour left.

This bike'll get us there.

Is he one of them?

No.

Stay down.

Chin, it's him.

It's the other guy.

He's coming around.

Hold on.
Hold on.

Get on the bike!

Get in.

This is Lieutenant Commander
Steve McGarrett.

The witness, Julie Masters,
is secure,

and we're bringing her in.

All right,
I want an armed perimeter

guarding the courthouse.

There's still
a potential assassin

who has not
been apprehended.

We're coming in
by truck.

You'll know which truck,
trust me.

Uh, I have an extra pair of
shoes and a sweater in my car.

We got to go.

Thank you.

For everything.

No more running.

Go.

I see that you've finally
produced your witness.

She's ready to testify.

My client would like
to talk about a deal.

He pleads guilty
and gives up the names

of his suppliers
and his coconspirators

in the murders of the two cops
and the federal marshal

in exchange for life in prison
with no death penalty.

He dies in prison instead
of being executed,

and in exchange,

we get to put ten more Aaron
Brenners away for life, Julie.

Where's your co-counsel?
He has to sign off on this.

He's waiting
in the conference room.

Hey, Kono.

Hey, the cleaner
is Brenner's co-counsel.

She's a blonde woman,
five, seven,

and she's in the courthouse
right now.

Where is he?

He'll be right in.

You know, there might be a few
other things I could teach you,

but I think you've got the whole
ass-kicking thing down.

Is everything all right?

Yeah, it is now,
thanks to Danny.

Yeah, it was just a...
misunderstanding.

You know,

Stan just got caught
in the middle of it.

You know,
it wasn't his fault.

It's over now.

Thanks again, Danny.
All right.

You.

I'll see you later, okay?

Okay. I love you, Danno.

I love you, too.

Come on, kiddo.

Thanks again.

Your Honor, the prosecution

calls Julie Masters.

Do you swear
to tell the truth,

the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?

I do.
