(Hawaii Five-O theme song playing)





- _
- Arch your back.

Weight on your toes and hands.

Then slide your back foot into position.

There you go.

Now front foot moves forward,

and pop up.

(laughs)

TANI: Yes!

Look at you! Perfect form!

You sure you're a first-timer?

Beginner's luck.

- Helps to have a great instructor, too.
- So how you feeling?

I am totally down to rip. (chuckles)

It is "rip," isn't it?

- Did I get that right?
- Nailed it!

All right, let's do this.

- TANI: (whoops)
- Yes!

Get it, girl!

Yeah!

Woo-hoo!

(car door closes)

Hey, Lou.

Thanks for meeting me.

Sure.

Okay, you know I'm sorry
about how everything went down,

and I'm not expecting your forgiveness,

or even your trust. I just,

I need you to understand,

after the Yakuza grabbed
Siobhan, what I did,

everything I did,

it was about keeping her safe.

Look, Adam, at the end,

everything turned out okay,

and I'm grateful for that.

That and whatever part you
played in making that happen.

But, Adam, on your own,

you put my niece's life at risk.

It's gonna take me a
while to get over it.

_

Wow. What's this?

- This is an iron.
- Yeah, I know what that is.

"What's this?" I know
how to iron a shirt.

Well, clearly, you don't

because you should
start with the collar.

I did the collar.

Okay, well, then you shouldn't...

I mean, you gonna iron the buttons?

You got to lay it out flat. Unbutton it.

Would you like to do this for me?

Or you just want to sit
there and be annoying?

No. What I'd like to do is know why

are you, um, ironing your shirt
on Valentine's Day? It would,

it would seem that someone who was

doing that would... Would have a date.

I do have a date, indeed.

- With who?
- With a lady.

Oh, Th-that's good.
Does she have a name?

- She does.
- What is it?

Her name is Brooke.

- Brooke.
- Yeah.

Oh, Brooke. Is that the
Brooke from Charlie's school,

the mom, the one I introduced
you to, that Brooke?

It is, and I probably, maybe,
would've told you about it

eventually, but the thing
is, last time you knew about

a date that we were on,
you called and texted

the entire time we were on
the date. You remember?

- I do.
- It was a little much.

That's fair, that's fair. Yeah.

Uh, second date for Valentine's Day,

that's-that's pretty
heavy, though, right?

Third date? Wow.

Well, I kind of lost
count. Don't be mad.

No, I'm not mad. Good for you.
I'm glad somebody has a life.

Ooh. Tani and Quinn

are, uh, going to the movies tonight.

You should call them,
do a little tag along.

(laughs) Yeah. I don't need a

- playdate. Thank you, though.
- No?

I'll tell you what, buddy.

If I finish up early with Brooke,

I'll give you a call. We can hang out.

That's very nice of you, but I think
we've done... more than enough

- hanging out for the rest of life.
- (phone ringing)

Hold on.

McGarrett.

MAN: Commander McGarrett, please
hold for the Secretary of State.

_

Lorena Massey.

Just turned herself in
after killing her husband,

Prin Khomsiri, a high-ranking diplomat

- from the Thai consulate.
- Okay.

So, you have a confession.

- What are we doing here?
- The State Department has been put

in a delicate position, Commander.

As you know, Thailand
is a strategic U.S. ally,

key to protecting our security
interests in the region.

STEVE: So, we have a U.S. citizen

who's killed a Thai diplomat,

and you want us to come in and clean up

the mess before this turns into

a geopolitical nightmare. Is that right?

We're looking to avoid an
international incident, yes.

Which is why the State
Department called in your team.

We need to show the Thais that
our best people are on this

and that it's being handled discreetly.

- All right.
- (door opens)

STEVE: Hi, Lorena.

My name is Commander Steve McGarrett.

This is my partner,
Detective Danny Williams.

We'd like to talk to you

about what happened this
morning, if that's okay.

DANNY: And we-we know
you've been through

a lot, so please take
as much time as you need.

Okay. Um, so, um, we know

what, uh, you allegedly
did to your husband.

Um, but let-let's start

with what, uh, what he did to you.

Okay?

It's okay.

You-You're wearing, um...

you're wearing a long-sleeve... shirt.

It's 85 degrees outside.

Okay?

I can see your makeup.

It's good. Did a good job.

Fool a lot of people, but not us.

I'd say you probably had practice

covering up the wounds he gave you.

Was your, uh, was your husband
physical with you, Ms. Massey?

Every time it happened,

he said he would change.

But...

Last night, it was bad.

I had to go to the ER.

Then this morning...

He beat you again?

No.

He said he was sorry.

Like always.

But I just couldn't...

I just couldn't do it anymore.

So...

I went, and I got the hammer,

and when he wasn't looking,
I walked up behind him,

and I hit him in the back of the head.

- Very hard.
- DANNY: Okay.

And he wasn't threatening you then?

No.

She did not kill her husband.

How can you be so sure?

Huh? Okay, so, so, so, back home, right,

I-I worked some domestic
abuse cases, right?

How you doing, man? Uh, after a while,

it starts to get under your skin,

so I did some research, right?

Talked to a few people.

There-There's a pattern.

Nine times out of
ten, it goes like this.

There's violence, right?

Then there's an apology,

and then there's a calm, all right?

The, uh, the abused,

they, uh, they start
to think that things

are maybe gonna get a
little better, right?

- Yeah, but they don't.
- Right.

The point is this. It is...
it is almost impossible

for people in these
situations to fight back.

And when they do, it is almost always

in self-defense, not premeditated

like she was just explaining.

I mean, if she didn't
do this, wh-why...

why would she confess?

That I do not know. Yet.

Danny, I'm more than happy
to follow your lead here.

But if she didn't do this,

we have to figure out
who did and run them down,

like, right now. Otherwise, you know

it's gonna look to the
Thais like we're just trying

to protect a U.S. citizen

- from prosecution.
- I... I don't care how it looks.

Okay? Maybe I'm wrong,

but I'm not. She did
not kill her husband.

She's not a killer. She's a victim.

All right.

Well, international incident or not,

if she didn't do this, we're
not gonna let her go down for it.

Then he turned his back to me.

Okay. And you were
standing how far away?

- Seven or eight feet.
- Seven or eight feet.

And then-then what happened?

I walked up behind him,

and I hit him in the back of the head.

Detective, how many more times

are you gonna go over
this? Because my story's

- not gonna change.
- See, that-that... that's the problem.

That's the problem.

Okay?

Your account is...

is very detailed and very consistent.

More so than I would expect

from someone who experienced
a significant trauma.

So you think I'm lying?

Yes, I do think you're
lying. I don't think

- you killed your husband.
- What?

- Yeah.
- Why...

- would I lie about that?
- I don't know.

I don't know. I think you're...
you're protecting someone.

- That's what I think.
- No.

- No?
- You're wrong.

Okay, I'm wrong. Well,
I imagine this, okay?

I imagine whoever did this for you

was protecting you, and now
you want to protect them.

Which I understand. I get that.

Okay? But it is my job to
get to the bottom of this,

and since I do not
think that you did it,

that means keeping you out of jail.

I killed my husband, Detective,

- and that's the truth.
- Okay. Okay.

STEVE: Look, she is
sticking to her story.

She still insists that she killed him.

Well, I got news for both of you.

All the evidence at the crime scene

agrees with her.

QUINN: No sign of forced entry.

Blunt force trauma to
the back of the head.

It all suggests Khomsiri
knew who his killer was.

And then there's the murder
weapon. The only prints we found

on that hammer were Lorena's.

Okay, okay, well, let's
just pretend I'm a detective

for a second, okay?

Why were her prints the
only ones on that hammer?

Right? Her husband
never used the hammer?

It's the family toolbox...
Nobody else ever used it?

Why only her prints? I'll tell you why.

Because she wiped the thing down,

and then she put her prints on it.

She is protecting someone.

GROVER: Well, that's
got to be a short list.

We went through all her phone records

and her financials.

Listen, the girl hardly went anyplace.

And the only people she called
was a few people in Portland,

which is where she's from.

That makes perfect sense to me.

I mean, she-she's got
a controlling husband.

Right? She's-she's
dealing with the shame

from what's been going on...
I mean, there's a reason

that abuse victims end
up feeling isolated.

Check a... a boyfriend.

Maybe she got a boyfriend, right?

I mean, those are calls
that she'd be trying to hide

- from her husband, right?
- STEVE: I agree.

I'm with Danny on this one.
We need to dig deeper, all right?

Dump her computer. Look for signs

of a secret relationship. Anything.

DANNY: And look, if we're
gonna prove that she's innocent,

we got to find an alibi.

Okay? And she's certainly
not gonna give us one.

Okay, so the M.E. ruled time of death

somewhere between 8:15 and 8:30 am.

Let's run her financials,

see if we can recreate her morning.

Find something, someone,
anything to put her

anywhere other than that house
when her husband was killed.

CUNHA: Thanks so much
for setting that up.

Errol was fantastic.

Did you like Errol?
'Cause I couldn't tell.

"Oh, Errol!

- "Oh, you're such a wonderful
- (giggles)

- instructor. Errol... "
- Come on.

(both laugh)

(phone chimes)

Oh. Text from Adam. We caught a case.

Okay, um, I'm dying for some water.

Can we just stop in
the store real quick?

Yeah. Sure.

(electronic chime)

Wow.

God forbid we forget for one
second it's Valentine's Day.

Seriously.

You and Manti have any plans?

(sighs) No. The team he coaches

has a game on Maui.

But he did promise to
make it up to me later.

Well, he better, because
your new surf instructor

is only a phone call away.

(electronic chime)

(electronic chime)

GROVER: So... the yoga studio
where Lorena goes

said that she was in class this morning,

but her class was done at 7:30.

Well, that gives her more
than enough time to get home

within the time-of-death window.

GROVER: Yeah. What you got on your end?

Nothing. Nobody saw her

at the coffee shop that she frequents

or the bakery next door.

I mean, I even checked footage

from the ATM cam on her way home.

You know what? Maybe the reason

that we can't establish

an alibi for this woman
is because she did it.

Think I got something, guys.

That was HPD.

They've been canvassing
Lorena's neighborhood.

Nobody saw her come or go from her house

this morning, but someone did
say they saw her get picked up

by a black Jaguar sedan

last night around 8:00 p.m.

Well, she ran her credit card
at the ER just after 9:00.

That has to be where the car took her.

GROVER: We don't have any record

of any phone calls that she made.

And I'm sure that

you won't find a Jaguar in rideshare.

Well, whoever took her to the ER,

she trusted enough to
tell about the abuse.

Maybe this is that relationship

Danny thinks she's been hiding.

You're talking about a relationship

with no phone calls or texts

or e-mails or nothing
of the sort, right?

How was she communicating
with this person?

Smoke signals?

You know, my niece has

a secret app on her phone

that she uses to hide her texts

and photos from her parents.

Okay. So, here is Lorena's phone dump.

If we check out data
usage, it'll tell us

how much time she spent on each app.

Look at this calculator app.

Who in the hell spends three hours

on their calculator?

So, not actually a calculator.

GROVER: Wow.

It looks like Danny was right.

ADAM: Yeah. She was
definitely having an affair.

These messages are

- very personal.
- QUINN: Okay, guys,

check out the message from last night.

Whoever she was messaging said,

"You have to come to the
ER I'm picking you up."

GROVER: Wouldn't you say you "have to go

to the ER"? That message

implies whoever sent
it was already there.

Maybe it was a hospital employee.

Hey, do we know

who she was treated by last night?

It was a Dr. Ray Paulson.

I called him last night to
check on her state of mind,

but he was in surgery,
and I'm waiting for him

- to call me back.
- Run DMV on Paulson.

Boom.

Jaguar.

Okay, this must be

the person she's protecting.

QUINN: Which means Dr. Paulson

might actually be the
person who killed our victim.

You know what? Who needs a boyfriend?

- I'll buy my own damn chocolates.
- You know those are gonna

go on sale tomorrow, right?

(electronic chime)

Hey, you have my full support,

especially if you're sharing.

All right, everybody
down on the ground! Now!

- Get down! I said, get down!
- Let's go!

- Let's go! Move!
- Everything in the bag.

Let's go! Come on!

There's only a few
hundred. Where's the rest?

In the back, a safe.

Forget it. Let's just go. No.

We're getting what we
came for. Move! Let's go!

TANI: You see that?

Yeah. He's unsteady,

and his hand is twitching.

TANI: Probably tweaking... came here

looking for drug money.

No. I don't think that's what it is.

(sirens approaching)

Hey! We got cops!

You tripped the alarm?

That's it, we're screwed.

No, we're not. We've got hostages.

They want to keep them alive,

they'll do what we say.

Everybody give me your phone.
Let's go! Come on!

Hurry up.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Come on.

OFFICER (over bullhorn): This is HPD.

We have the store surrounded.

(sirens wailing)

Lock the front door. Now!

No one needs to get hurt here.

So step outside, with
your hands above your head,

and let's resolve this peacefully.

What the hell are we gonna do now?

Hey. Look at me.

Just breathe.

- Mm.
- We'll figure it out.

We're in this together, okay?

(indistinct police radio chatter)

Got a regular Bonnie and Clyde here.

Yeah, well, at least he's
keeping her from going postal.

TANI: For now.

They're amateurs.

That's not a good thing.
They're in way over their head.

Okay, so, um,

we, um, picked up Dr. Paulson.

You know, the ER doctor who took you

to the hospital last night.

We also found out that he's probably

a little bit more than just a doctor.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Over 6,500 messages
between you and this woman

over the last few months.

You got anything to say about that?

I admit, we've grown close.

I care about Lorena very much.

But she's a patient, and
a married one at that.

Which is why it never became physical.

Let me stop you right there.

Let me tell you what
that statement says to me.

It says to me that if Lorena was
to suddenly become unmarried...

For example, if something were to happen

to that son of a bitch
husband of hers...

Oh, that'd be just fine with you.

I told you, I didn't kill him.

Yeah, and what about this love note

that you sent to her last night.

"If he hurts you again,

"it'll be the last thing...

he does."

DANNY: I don't understand.

You sacrifice so much for this one guy.

Now you're gonna
sacrifice for this doctor?

What about you? What about you?

When are you gonna start
taking care of yourself?

Do you know what it's
like to feel invisible?

Every day Prin looked through
me like I didn't exist,

to the point where I started
to think that maybe I didn't.

And then someone comes
along who really sees me.

Okay. I get it.

Is it worth going to jail
for the rest of your life?

Have you never sacrificed
anything for love, Detective?

Yes, as a matter of fact, I have.

I know what that's like.

I moved all the way out
here for my daughter.

That's a 5,000-mile sacrifice,
but I didn't have a choice.

Exactly.

Sometimes you don't.

GROVER: Let me tell you something.

This woman you wanted
so badly to protect,

you know where she is right now?

She's in custody.

Why?

'Cause she confessed

to your crime.

- She what?
- You heard me.

She confessed

to the murder you committed,

which means she's
pretty crazy about you,

or she's just pretty damn crazy.

(door opens)

Lou. There's been a development.

You have a choice, and
that's what I'm saying.

We can go back and forth

- (phone beeps)
- about the sacrifice, but... Excuse me.

- What is it?
- Um...

I've just been informed that, um,

Dr. Paulson did not...

kill your husband.

We have him on camera at a gas station

on the other side of the Island

at the time of death.

Which means...

you are covering for the wrong person.

I think you'd agree

this changes everything, no?

So what you need to do is

just drop the act
altogether. That thing's off.

Just talk to me, okay?

I need the truth.

Please, just talk to me
and tell me the truth.

Was your husband dead when you got home?

I thought for sure
Ray must have done it.

The things he was saying last night

when he drove me to the hospital...

- He was so angry.
- Mmhmm.

And then when I found my husband dead

and I couldn't reach Ray

on the app, I... I knew that if I called

or if I texted,

then I would lead
police straight to him.

So I...

- I said I did it...
- Okay.

- To protect him, not...
- Uh, it-it's...

doesn't matter now.

Please. I sw-I swear,

I-I don't know who did this.

If it wasn't Ray, I...

I don't know.

I can't go to jail. I...

I'm not gonna let you go to jail, okay?

I'm gonna do my best
to keep you out of jail,

but I got a problem.

All the evidence at that crime scene

supports your confession.

So I got to find the
killer, the actual killer,

now, and I got to do it
fast, and you got to help me.

Can you... Just calm down, please.

Can you help me?

Okay.

What are we gonna do?

The cops aren't just
gonna wait out there.

We need a plan!

(wheezing) I can't breathe.

No, it's okay.

- I can't breathe!
- It's okay.

She's-she's having an asthma attack.

Her inhaler is in the
car. She needs it now.

Please! She could die.

You have that kind of thing

- in here?
- Down the end of that aisle.

Hey.

We don't need someone dying.

All right. Come with me. Let's go!

(grunting)

(groans, sighs)

(quietly): Not a sound. Understand?

- (wheezing)
- Let's go.

- Hurry!
- I can't.

Can you help me?

(panting)

Now!

(grunting)

Give...

my husband back...

his gun.

Do it.

Now!

Let's go.

Get over there.

Look, if our victim wasn't
killed by the doctor,

we got to find other motives.

Danny spoke to Lorena

and he asked her about Khomsiri's work.

If there was anything there

that he could find that
would make Khomsiri a target.

But it doesn't look like
she's gonna be much help.

I mean, this guy kept her
in the dark on everything.

ADAM: Okay.

We're digging into his work life now.

Also, there's an update from CSU.

They found something odd at
the crime scene: a flower petal,

just inside the door,
that doesn't match anything

in the bouquet Lorena received

this morning.

What, somebody shows up to the
house, and then leaves again

with a bunch of flowers.
I don't understand.

Doesn't make sense.

Well, actually, it might.

I mean, Khomsiri

was driven to and from work

every day by an armed guard, right?

So the only time he was vulnerable was

when he was at home.

Okay, so if you're somebody who
rings doorbells for a living,

somebody who would blend in...

Like a flower delivery
guy on Valentine's Day.

It would explain why there
was no signs of forced entry.

He let his killer in.

Quinn, have HPD send a couple
officers back down to that area

and have them ask around
and see if anybody noticed

a delivery guy leaving that
house this morning with a bunch

- of flowers.
- On it, Commander.

Oh, hey, have you heard from Tani?

She texted she was
heading in a while ago.

Now, she's not responding.
I'm starting to worry.

No, I haven't, but I can handle this

if you want to stay and see
if you can track her down.

Yeah, okay. Her phone's still on.

I'll see if I can get a location off it.

- Steve?
- Hey.

Under Secretary Yang from the
State Department is here again.

- And she's brought someone with her.
- Mmhmm.

An attaché from the Thai consulate.

What's she want... Updates or something?

No, she wants Lorena,

so they can take her to
Thailand for prosecution.

What are you talking about?
I mean, the woman's innocent,

not to mention, she's an American.

They can't just throw
her in a cell in Bangkok.

I told 'em that, but
then they showed me this.

Why didn't you tell me you
renounced your citizenship?

Because I didn't.

I've never seen these papers before.

Prin must have forged them.

Another way to control me to
make sure I wouldn't leave.

These are official documents.

Lorena, this right here...
This is an official seal,

which means we're in real trouble.

They want to put you
on a plane to Thailand,

and, legally, because of this,

there's not much we can do about it.

You can't let them take
me. You have no idea

how powerful this family is.

(phone ringing)

TANI: That's the hostage
negotiator calling.

You have to talk to them.

If you don't, they'll take
it to mean that something's

gone very, very bad in here.

They will breach. If they do that,

one of you or both will end up dead.

Shut up, will you?

Just listen to me.

I'm a cop, okay?

I know what I'm talking about.

We have a cop in here?

I'm so sorry.

I should've listened
to you. We did all this

for nothing.

No, calm down.

It wasn't for...

- No.
- Baby.

Baby? Oh, my God. (groaning)

- Oh, my God, he's having a seizure!
- Untie me. I can help him.

Baby... Yeah, right. Like I trust you.

I'm a doctor, okay?

If he's having a seizure, you need

to roll him onto one side so that

his airways are clear.

If it is a cardiovascular incident,

he's going to need immediate CPR.

Do you know how to perform CPR?

(groaning)

This better not be another one

of your stupid games.

(groaning continues)

If you try anything, I will

put a bullet in your friend's head.

It's okay, baby.

It's okay.

I'm sorry, but I can't let you take her.

Commander, you're
interfering with orders from

the secretary of state himself.

The honorary vice consul

from the Kingdom of
Thailand has requested

we turn over Mr. Khomsiri's
wife to stand trial

for his murder, and we
have granted that request.

Well, you shouldn't have
granted that request,

'cause she didn't do it.

Don't you want to bring
Mr. Khomsiri's killer

to justice? Isn't that

what this is all
about... His real killer?

Khomsiri's wife already confessed.

First of all, she has a name, all right?

Her name is Lorena Massey.

And second of all, she
recanted her confession.

Massey is no longer an American citizen,

which means this is not just out of

your jurisdiction. It's
out of ours, as well.

Now, for the last time, step aside.

You want her that bad, huh?

Go get her.

Thank you.

Of course...

you're gonna have to find her first.

(truck engine starting)

What's gonna happen to me, Detective?

It's-it's Danny, and
you're gonna be fine.

Okay? I'm promise you,
you're gonna be fine.

Five-O's gonna get
to the bottom of this.

We just need to keep you off grid

for a little bit. That's all.

You're putting a lot on the line for me.

Why?

I don't know. I guess, uh,

my life's not making
a lot of sense lately,

so maybe I just want to
make sense of something.

Your fake confession was a puzzle

that I thought I could solve.

And you seem

like a nice person.

(brakes squeal)

(truck door rolls open)

Aloha, outlaws.

Welcome to my safehouse away from home.

The seizures started a few weeks ago.

The doctor prescribed
epilepsy medication,

but it's just gotten worse.

Did you let the doctor know?

Yeah. She said we needed a full workup.

Blood tests, MRIs.

That's why you did this.

'Cause you couldn't afford the tests?

Has he shown any other
symptoms... headaches, nausea?

Both.

And he's, like, losing his balance,

tripping over things.

Okay, well,

I can't tell without running tests, but

it sounds like BTRE,

brain tumor-related epilepsy.

He has a tumor?

He most likely will need
surgery, but right now,

he needs oxygen badly.

Do you hear how ragged
his breathing is? Look,

I'm sure there are EMTs outside.

If you just let me take him there...

Out there?

No.

No way.

At least just let her
go to the ambulance

and bring one back.

How do I know I can trust you

and you won't just
bring the cops back in?

I just want to help your husband.

Okay?

I promise to come back alone.

You have my word.

Hey, Adam Noshimuri.
Five-O. You in charge?

- That's right.
- Now, let me take a look.

What's going on?

Looks like we got two armed
suspects, six civilians.

No shots fired. As far
as we know, no casualties.

All right, listen, I'm pretty sure

a friend of mine is in there, maybe two.

Have these guys made any demands?

We haven't been able to make contact.

We've been calling the store's
land line, but no answer.

Well, that's not good.

This is Dr. Noelani Cunha coming out.

I'm one of the hostages.

Hold your fire.

Hold your fire, everyone.

You, on me.

Hey, hey.

Hey, Noelani, are you all right?

How's Tani?

She's fine. Nobody's been hurt.

But one of the robbers
needs medical attention.

I came out for supplies.

Aoki.

Get a uniform from one of the EMTs.

- I'm sending you in with her.
- No, no, no, no,

I promised I'd go back in there alone.

Sending you in one of my
team is our best chance

at a resolution here.

Listen, she's panicked, okay? On edge.

If I go back in there with anyone,

I'm afraid of what she might do.

Sorry, ma'am. This isn't your call.

Listen, all due respect, Sergeant,

Dr. Cunha's been in close
quarters with these people

for several hours now,
and you can't even get them

on the phone, all right?

If anyone is qualified

to speak to the hostage-taker's
state of mind, it's her.

Yo, Danny.

Text for you.

Please just don't get too chatty.

- It's ten cents a pop.
- Uh-huh.

Hey, you take a look at something?

This guy... he was seen

coming out of your house
this morning, uh, carrying

a floral arrangement.
You ever seen him before?

- I don't think so.
- No?

What about, uh... I don't
know... Anywhere else?

Maybe a work function with
your husband, something?

I'm sorry. I want to help. It's just...

- I didn't know much about Prin's life.
- Right.

He never had people over.

He never took me with
him to work dinners

or on trips, so, I don't...

I don't understand how you
ended up with a guy like that.

It wasn't always like that.

Not when we first met.

I was visiting from Portland.

We ended up at the same luau.

He was...

charming, funny.

Completely swept me off my feet.

Couple months later, I
moved here to be with him.

Prin used to say it was fate.

He relocated to Oahu only three weeks

before that luau.

So if his post in Mumbai
hadn't been cut short,

we never would've met.

Why, uh...

why was it cut short?

He'd been there eight months

before he asked to be reassigned.

Why-why... why did he ask?

Because he said Mumbai was too hot.

Uh-huh.

Too hot?

Since when the hell do
diplomats get to choose

their assignments based on the weather?

Not to mention, asking out

of Mumbai is kind of
a weird career move.

Wouldn't you say? I mean,
India is supposed to be

one of Thailand's most important allies.

Right. Moving to Hawaii was a
serious step down for this guy.

All right, look, we've been running

this sketch of our suspect

through facial rec and the databases

from countries that
Khomsiri was stationed in.

Let's hone in on Mumbai.

All right. Al-Also check,

uh, local papers, incident reports.

I mean, this guy was
running from something.

- (door chimes)
- It's just me.

No cops.

All right, this is midazolam.

It'll prevent seizures,
but only temporarily.

He really needs to get to a hospital.

(wheezing)

Hey.

I know what you're thinking.

You don't want to go to prison.

I'm not scared of going to prison.

I just...

can't be without him.

But you heard her.
He's gonna need surgery.

We could never afford that.

You don't have to.

If you turn yourselves in,

prisoners get mandatory
medical attention.

He's gonna get the
treatment that he needs.

Listen, nobody goes

through life alone.

Everybody needs someone to lean on.

And in your case, it's your husband.

Look at him right now.

He can't be there for you.

But maybe I can.

How?

I'll talk to the judge

at your sentencing. When I tell them

why you did the things that you did,

they might go easier on you.

You would do that for me?

I would.

If you end this now,
before anyone gets hurt.



Hey. Hey.

So, listen, your hunch about India...

You were right.

A week before Khomsiri was
reassigned, there was an incident.

Okay. What was the incident?

I don't know. File's been sealed.

I'm trying to call in some favors.

So far, nothing.

Cuz, three SUVs coming up the road.

What? How possible?

No one knows this place.

- Steve, I got to go.
- Danny. Danny.

Hey. Come on, come on, come on.

- We got to go.
- Okay.

Stop right there!

Keep your hands where they are.

Cuff 'em both.

Turn around.

How'd you get me out so fast?

Well, the State Department
wanted to keep it quiet.

And, uh, I may have promised Yang

that if she didn't
release you immediately,

I was gonna make a whole lot of noise.

(sighs, stammers)

Did they mention, uh, how they found us?

They tracked the phone.

Tracked the phone? I was on a burner.

Prepaid. Kamekona's cousin's phone.

They weren't up on the burner, Danny.

They were up on HQ.
On the secure line.

Which is... kind of terrifying to me.

All right. Well, what's-what's
gonna happen with Lorena?

What's going on?

- Lorena's on the way to the airport.
- (phone ringing)

Yang is gonna put her
on a plane to Thailand.

- Well, we can't let that happen.
- I know that, Danny.

Lou, hey. You got me and
Danny. I just got him out.

Go ahead. Well, I'm happy to report

that we just unsealed the victim's

India file.

Turns out our dead
diplomat took advantage

of his immunity to get away
with all sorts of shady stuff.

The worst of which: he
struck and killed a woman

- while he was driving drunk.
- Really?

Local authorities arrested him, but due

to his diplomatic status,

he ended up getting off Scot-free,

and they swept the whole
damn thing under the rug.

So he wasn't transferred
because of the weather.

Yeah, I'm thinking somebody
back there wasn't willing

to let him get away with what he did.

Hey, listen, Quinn, do me a favor.

Run a, uh... a quick search on
the DUI victim's name, please.

Okay, looks like we
have ourselves a perp.

It's the victim's husband.

His name is Sameer Khatri.

DHS records confirm Mr. Khatri
arrived on Oahu a few weeks ago.

Plenty of time to find that
diplomat and plan his revenge.

(horns honking)

Move your truck. Now.

We just ID'd Prin Khomsiri's killer,

and we're gonna have
him in custody soon.

That means that the woman

in that car... she's innocent.

As you know, Detective,
Lorena Massey is no longer

a citizen of our country,
which means...

Yeah, we all know what that means.
Here's something you might not know.

Okay, when we were looking for this guy,

we had to unseal a whole
bunch of police records

from Khomsiri's time in Mumbai.

Guess what we found.

This guy had DUIs,

he harassed women...

But more-more importantly
than any of that,

he was selling visas
to the highest bidder.

You're talking about a Thai official

flagrantly violating another
country's national security.

That's-that's got to be newsworthy, no?

STEVE: Bet your ass it's newsworthy.

And if that story were to come out,

might cause some friction
between our two governments.

Wouldn't you agree?

Hey.

Khomsiri's killer is in custody.

He's at HPD giving his confession.

Let's hope this one sticks.

Well, his prints match a partial

from the door frame in Lorena's house,

so can't argue that.

Now, if we're being honest,

I don't think he wanted to.

He got what he came for... justice

- for his wife.
- (phone ringing)

Wait. Mm.

Well,

look who's calling her
pops on Valentine's Day.

Hey, little mama.

Yeah. Well, happy Valentine's Day

to you, too, babe.

Okay.

That stunt you pulled...

Using Endo to swap for the girl...

Kenji was not pleased.

Yeah, well,

I'm not afraid of Kenji.

But I get the feeling you are.

We both know how unpredictable he is.

Unstable is more like it.

Look, same time next week.

Nope. Not a Christmas movie.

Sunshine, sit down.

Okay? Thank you. Please.
