Dates all the way back to

ancient Egypt.
Barbers would make house calls

and nobility.the way back to

Come on.
I'm serious.

They found hieroglyphics
in the pyramids

showing pharaohs
getting their hair cut.



Okay, and you're carrying
the legacy for all barbers?

Exactly.
Uh-huh.

Why go out when your hair
maintenance man can come to you?

Huh.

Truthfully,

the whole thing
has been liberating.

Not having insurance on the shop
turned out to be a blessing.

I'm saving a fortune on rent,

electricity, water.

Yeah, right,
low overhead, right?

Must be good for profits.

Well, actually,

I'm still just barely
getting by. Go figure.

But, uh, I'm not complaining.



Catching waves, cutting hair.

What else does
a man need?

You said it, pal.

All right, let's take a look.

Voilà.

(whistles)
Buddy.

Thank you, it's perfect.

That's what I want to hear.

Anything else I can do for you?

Yes. I didn't just call
you down here for a haircut.

I need a favor.

That's my cue to say good-bye.

Where you going? You haven't
even heard what it is yet.

Yeah. Last time
I did you a favor

I opened my shop early,
I spent the rest of my day

dodging bullets.
So if you don't mind,

I'd like to leave now

with my cash
for services rendered

and, uh, a generous tip.

And I will see you again

when things get unruly upstairs.

Odell, if I had

another choice,
I wouldn't ask, but I don't.

My friend needs a lawyer,

right now you're my only option.

Well, as you can see...

I'm not a lawyer.

Yeah,
but you were a lawyer.

You passed the bar when
you first moved to the island,

which means technically

you can still practice.

(chuckles)
That was ten years ago, man.

I only took the bar
because I needed a loan

to open up my shop and my father

wouldn't give me the money
unless I did.

Just out of curiosity,

what's your friend
being, uh, accused of?

What is it, DUI, a B and E?

Murder.

I'm really not interested.

He's innocent.
The public defender

is ready to throw in the towel.

The guy, he wants
to take a plea bargain.

Well, don't take the deal.
Get a better lawyer.

We can't. We tried.

No one wants to touch this.

Well, if everybody's saying
it's a losing horse,

then, uh, maybe you better
step away from the window.

Odell, this guy's
a Five-O asset.

If he says he didn't do it,
we believe him.

Unfortunately we're part
of the minority.

Now, he's been in front
of this judge before. This guy

has it in for him.
He's-he's accelerated the trial.

Till when?

This Monday.

(laughs)
That's three days from now.

I know it's three days from now.

(sighs)

Who the hell is this guy?

(buzzer blares, door unlocks)

Oh, sorry, this room's taken.

You're gonna have to interrogate
this haole somewhere else.

Sang Min, meet Odell Martin,

your new lawyer.

Seriously, McGarrett?

This is the best you can do?

Huh? What happened?

Pizza delivery guy
wasn't available?

Hey, Big Trouble
in Little China.

You want my help,
ease up on the digs.

Ho, ho, ho, yeah.

You must be some lawyer.

Huh? What, are you going
all out for casual Friday?

Are you sure
you don't want

this guy locked up for life?
'Cause I do.

He grows on you. I promise.

I bet he does,

like a bad fungus.

And if this is gonna happen,
first thing I'm gonna need to do

is cut whatever that thing
is growing out of his head.

You touch my hair,

and I'll be going
to jail for your murder.

This is gonna work out great.

I can feel it.

ODELL: No, no.

Absolutely no way

am I representing
that cartoon character.

Good luck.

You didn't pay me
for the haircut.

You know, maybe your
old man was right.

Hey. Do me a favor,

don't ever bring up my old man.

All right?
My bad,

sensitive subject.

I get that.

Must've been tough on him,
too, though.

Putting all his
hopes and dreams

into his son

who would one day
follow in his footsteps

and, you know, reside over
the family practice...

I know what you're doing.

Is it working?

It's annoying.

Odell, I know
it doesn't seem like it,

but that man in there
is innocent of this crime.

And I need you.

I'm trying to free myself from
the binds of responsibility

and you want to put
a man's life in my hands.

But if you say no to me,

an innocent man goes to prison.

(buzzer blares)

Come on.
Oh, let me guess.

You couldn't find the elevator.

Must be a bitch getting old.

Would you shut up, please?

He's taking the case.

Well, what if I decide
I don't want him?

You go to prison
for the rest of your life.

Okay. He can represent me.
Hey!

Well, your gratitude
is appreciated.

STEVE:
That's great.

ODELL: Okay, look, we only got
three days to prepare,

so we can't afford to waste
any more time, hmm?

Okay, Perry Mason... not.

You know, but I draw the line
at cutting my hair.

You know, it took me
almost a year to grow it back

after skipping out on Halawa.

Can I talk to you for a second?
Yeah.

You do know that a defendant

who escaped from prison

is probably gonna be somebody

that a jury finds hard
to trust, you know?

Yeah.
Kind of, kind of destroys

his credibility a bit.

Yeah, so that's why it's
really important you make sure

it doesn't get brought up
while we're in court.

Only way for that to happen

is keep him off the stand.

Can you do me a favor
and tell him that, please?

Um... look,
i-if you don't testify,

the jury will only hear facts
pertaining to this case.

As far as the court
of law is concerned,

any crime you
committed in the past

has no relevance.

No, no, no, no.

I have to testify.

No, you don't.
No.

Yes, I do!

You don't.
No, you don't.

Okay?
You get on that stand,

they're gonna
attack your character.

Everything you've ever done--

ever done--

is admissible, okay?

And it's a long,
long list.

I didn't shoot that guy,

but there are
no witnesses

who can back up my story.

The jury has to hear
the truth from me.

Hey, it ain't my life
on the line.

You want on the stand,
have at it.

But don't say I didn't
warn you. Okay?

We got that cleared up?
Yeah.

Let's start
at the beginning.

Tell me exactly what happened,
step by step.

Well, it started, uh...
last year.

I was lending my, uh, services

to Five-O.
STEVE: At that point,

the human trafficking game
on the island

was up for grabs.

Two guys took it over.

We knew the identify
of one of them, James Lam,

but the other, we did not.

That's why we took
Sang Min out of prison again

ten days ago.

SANG MIN:
Lam and I go way back,

you know, I gave him his first
job collecting unpaid debts,

so I set up
a face-to-face.

But when I showed up,

the guy was, uh,
lying on the ground

with a bullet in his chest.

(footsteps)

(grunts)

What happened next?

Oh, let's just say
I was caught in a...

(sirens approaching)

...unfavorable position.

OFFICER:
Hands up!

ODELL:
Let me get this straight.

We got no witnesses

to corroborate your account
of what happened,

and...

we got no leads on tracking down
the real killer.

No. Just the word of a man

who's spent the better
part of his life

either in jail
or being pursued by the cops.

Yeah.

Piece of cake, right?

♪ ♪

Whoa-ho.

This place is money.

We can stay here till the trial?
Yep.

Oh, that's correct,
counselor.

You know,
they don't call it

the King Kamehameha
suite for nothing.

We're gonna live
like royalty, baby.

(door opens)

KONO:
All right.

So the floor is secured,

place is locked down.

Whoa!

Every king needs his queen
and here she is.

You know,
I didn't realize

you cared so much
about my safety.

I'm, um, I'm deeply touched.

You know, I'd feel
a lot safer

if you were by my side
until the trial starts.

KONO:
Okay. You know what?

I'm glad
your lawyer's here,

because I'm gonna hit you,

and I want proof
that it was provoked.

Oh, you know,

give me your best shot, Spicy.

You know, because
it's been a long time

since I felt a woman's
hands on my body.

Is he always this creepy?
KONO: Yes.

Yeah, pretty much the whole time
we've known him, mm-hmm.

Take off your dress

so I know you're not
wearing a wire.

You know, for the record,

I knew you were a cop.

I just wanted to see you,
you know...

naked.

Let me hit him, please.

Hey, yo, McGarrett.

Hey.

All right, so,
the results came back

from that sketch artist
composite

that the mullet gave us
on the shooter.

Photo imaging system
says no hits.

(chuckles)

Well, any gangsta
worth their salt

wouldn't be in any system.
(phone ringing)

You were.
Whoa.

I got hate coming
from every direction, huh?

Where's the love?
I thought we were 'ohana.

Yeah, Max?
(knocking at door)

I'll be right there.
I got to go.

Oh, if that's room service,
I'm starving, man.

That's for me.

(knocking continues)

What's happenin'?

You're early, for once.

Yo, you didn't tell me
Five-O was gonna be here.

Everything all right?

Everything's fine.

The guy's got the wrong room.
Sorry, pal.

STEVE:
Excuse me.

You're lying.

Okay. I'm lying.

Come on, man. This is my friend
Bones. I do his dreads.

He manages my dreads.

Bones is a shaper
from the west side.

Why didn't
you just say that?

We got to tell 'em.

GROVER:
Tell us what?

Uh, okay. Bones

might not be
what you call

a legal citizen
of the United States.

KONO: Okay, let me guess.
Your friend here

has connections
to the human trafficking world.

Exactly.
That's why I called him.

With Bones' street cred,

I think he's gonna
be able to help us out.

Hey.

Okay.

But if my man
comes on board,

I expect him to have
a green card waiting for him

when this is all over.
Win or lose.

Is it... is it just me

or does he actually sound
like a lawyer?

No, it ain't just you.

A green card.

Green card.

It's a deal.

Deal.

There you go.
What'd I tell you?

What'd I tell you? Okay.
Irie, bruddah. Blessed.

The victim's approximately
25 years of age.

He was discovered floating off
Waikiki Beach this morning.

Cause of death--
gunshot wound to the head.

Okay, and what's this got
to do with Sang Min?

Quite a lot, actually.

The slug I pulled
from our victim

was a ballistics match
to the gun that was used

to murder James Lam.

Which mean Lam's competitors
killed both men.

If we are to believe Sang Min's
account of events, then yes.

STEVE: All right,
but if T.O.D.

was before we took
Sang Min out of prison,

then that would create
reasonable doubt.

Well, unfortunately,
the condition

of the body makes it
very difficult to determine

the precise time of death,
however,

I can confirm it was
within the last 72 hours.

Well, that's within
the timeframe

when Sang Min was released.

Yeah, it doesn't
help our case.

Who is he?

His name is Carlos Sarte.

Uh, his prints showed up
in the National I.D. System

for the Republic
of the Philippines.

However,
there were no records

of him actually
entering the United States.

Well, he could've been smuggled
into the country illegally.

All right, we need to track down
his family in the Philippines,

find out who his connections are
here in O'ahu.

And see if we can figure out who
brought him into this country.

If we do that,
maybe we can I.D. our shooter.

Thanks, Max.

(whoops)

Oh, where was I?

You were telling about the time
you almost killed Five-O.

Oh, yeah.

CHIN:
Gun!

Anybody hurt?

Good!
Good!

(tires screeching)

(car alarm wailing)

Out of the car right now!

Promise me you will not--
under any circumstances--

repeat that story
while you're on the stand.

Do you understand me?
Not a word.

They instigated it!

What did I just say?

I can't hear.

I got bubbles in my ear.

WOMAN:
Oh!

(crying)

I'm sorry.

We know that you
and your brother

came into this
country illegally.

We need to know
who brought you in.

CHIN: Andrea,
this information

could help us find out
who killed your brother.

Now, we know you're scared.

But anything you could
tell us would be helpful.

The man who brought us

called two days ago

asking for more money
or he would report us

to immigration.

Is this the man?

(sniffles)

No.

Okay.

Can you, uh,
can you describe him to us?

He's, um,

Korean, I think.

Tattoo on his neck

and, uh, long black hair.

Is that him?

Yes.

He's the one who called us.

That man killed my brother.

Who is he?

Carlos Sarte.

Our victim's sister
just I.D.'d you for his murder.

Yeah, she said you
brought her and her brother

over from the Philippines.

Well, how am I supposed
to do that

when I've been locked away
in a cement hole

for the past year?!

You can relax.
We believe you.

Look, someone must've
gotten to her.

Made sure that she I.D.'d Sang
Min for her brother's murder.

STEVE:
Yeah, the shooter.

Right?

He knew the bullet
that killed Lam

would lead us to Sarte.

ODELL:
Okay, look, I'm glad

everybody here thinks
the career criminal

is telling the truth,
but we got a bigger problem now.

You just gave the prosecution
their star witness.

You know, I could
have her in a crate

back to the Philippines
in seven hours.

What? I thought
we were problem solving.

Yeah.

Okay, buddy, yeah.

Okay, I'll talk
to you soon, bye.

That was Danny.
He just landed in Jersey.

He and Clara
headed to the bank.

And then Danny's gonna take
Matty's money to the FBI.

Hmm.

You think he's right?

That this whole thing
dragging Clara and Danny in

was just a ploy
to rattle our cage?

Yeah, I do.

I think somebody has
us in their sites,

and I got a feeling this
is just the beginning.

(reggae music playing)

BONES:
Yo, what wrong with you?

No, I tell you already!

I never even
talked to that bobo!

No, no need to get bad mind!

You're all that I want!
There's nobody else!

Sure.

Anyway, we talk later.

Miss you, too.

Yeah.

Thank you, brother.

Yeah.

Anything else I can
do for you, brother?

I mean, I'm driving you around.

You're using my damn phone.

You want me to stop
by a restaurant,

get you some lunch?

It's all right, man.
I'm not really hungry right now.

Maybe later.

(sighs)

All right, Bones.

Now, tell me about this guy
we're going to see.

Rory.

Rory have the hookup on bringing
people into the island.

Mm.
Then...

him keep a low profile.

But him hear everything

that's going on
in the trafficking game.

Mm.

If you are looking

for a major player
in that world,

him would know who it is.

Right.

Only one thing, though.

What's that?

Him don't like the po-po.

What a shock.

Straight up.

Just follow my lead
and everything irie.

Oy vey.

(sighs)

Bones!

What's going on, man?
Yo.

Been a long time, brother.

Too long, Rory.

(chuckles)

Everything irie?

Can't complain, man.

Nice, nice.

You didn't mention you were
bringing someone, man.

This is Walt, man.
My boy is some cool.

(Jamaican accent): Everything irie, man.
Relax, man.

Me and the Bones been doing
business a long time.

Me grew up in Jamaica
with him father.

Oh, yeah? Where you from?

Where...?

Hey, Bones, why you not tell me

the man gonna give me
a quiz when I get here.

Just talk to the man, man...

No cast no suspicion upon me.
Me not like that.

You see me 100% Jamaican

from the root to the fruit.

And me born in Surrey,
just like him father.

Now, come now, man.

No need for get vex.

We have a pile of money.

You want some of it?

Just like I
told you, Rory.

Remember that deal
I was telling you about?

I got some friends
in the Ivory Coast.

Been looking to bring
some people Stateside.

Won't be cheap, brother.

(chuckles)

Well, good thing them people
have plenty cash.

I will need someone
with your connections

can, you know,
secure the transportation.

Make sure them arrive safe.

Just one little detail.

We may have to take
a small percentage

for we.
A good piece.

I might know someone
who could help you out, man.

Nice.

I'll hook you guys up

with a sit-down, all right?

Sound good, sound good.
We cool, man.

(no accent): That's perfect,
man. That's all I need.

Bones!
Aw, don't get mad at ol' Bones.

He got more charges
than my wife's credit cards.

He'll do anything
to get out of them.

That's entrapment, man.

Won't hold up in court.

You know it and I know it.

Oh, you think I'm a cop.

Oh, I'm not a cop.

No, see, um,

I'm Five-O.

So, what, him fess up?

You better quit popping up like
toast in other people's cars.

That's how you get shot.

(phone dialing)

GROVER:
I just met with Bones' contact

He I.D.'d the sketch
that Sang Min provided.

The guy's name is Graham Clark,
and guess what?

He's bringing in a shipment
of clients this afternoon.

Where?

(gunshots)

Chin, watch your lines--
we got people in that container!

Copy!
(people screaming)

I got eyes on Graham!

Hey, where the hell is he going?

To buy himself some time.

Chin!

We're gonna get wet!

I'm right with you!

Cover me!
Do your thing. I got you!

(clanks)

(squeaking)

(coughing)

(coughing)

(gasps for air)

We're good.

Okay?

Everybody all right?

Yeah.
Come on.

We got everyone
but Graham Clark.

I've got all my men
searching, Steve.

We'll find him.

All right, continue
with the compressions.

(garbled radio transmission)
All right, head's good.

Hey, yo, McGarrett?

(siren wailing)

So this mutt in the
ambulance just confirmed

that Clark killed James Lam.

Will he testify?

If he comes out
of surgery.

(sirens wailing)

Your Honor,

ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,

the prosecution is going
to present evidence...

Objection.

ODELL:
Jerry, it's

my opening statement.
You can't object.

Oh. Sorry.

I just always wanted
to do that.

Yeah, while we're on the
subject, I also object.

To what?
Well, according to the Constitution,

I have the right

to be tried
by a jury of my peers.

And neither of them
are my peers.

That hurts.

I must remind the jury

it is against the rules
to interact with the defendant.

Relax, Judge Ito.

My fellow juror was
just responding

to a character attack.

Hey, where you get those?

Mini bar?
ODELL: Hey, you can't eat.

You're on the jury.
KAMEKONA: We could be sequestered

for days.

It's a mock trial.
(knocking)

MAN:
Room service.

Who the hell
ordered room service?

KAMEKONA:
That would be me.

And I object
to your use of language,

'cause this is
a place of law.

Order's been cancelled.

Mahalo.

(door closes)

A man's life hangs
in the balance, okay?

I'm asking just
for a couple of hours

to work on some things before
going into court on Monday.

So how about we show
a little professionalism?

Yeah, you heard
my lawyer-barber.

Show some respect.
KAMEKONA: I'll participate,

but only in silent protest.

Me, too.

I appreciate that.

Max, would you please?

The defense may call
upon their first witness.

Once is enough with that. Okay.

Uh, Defense calls
Officer Kono Kalakaua

of the Five-O Task Force.

All right. Ooh!

(clicking tongue)

My beautiful sister,

do you swear to tell the
truth, the whole truth,

and nothing but
the sweet truth?

Uh, I think you're butchering
that, but I'll say yes.

That work for me.

Officer Kalakaua, everybody
knows the Five-O task force

has had run-ins
in the past with my client.

You could say that.

Yet even with your history,
you stand here today

in defense of my client,

believing him innocent
of the crime.

Is that correct?

Yes, it is.

Well, that is quite
the turnaround, no?

I mean, you did arrest him.

People change, Counselor,
and I can honestly say,

in all my time
on the Five-O task force,

no one has changed
more than Sang Min.

JERRY:
That might be true,

but these photos
are mug shots...

...taken of Sang Min
for crimes committed

during his illustrious career
as a criminal.

Looks like
an evolutional chart.

Only, it's going the other way.

JERRY:
Do you recall

what offense you committed
when this mug shot was taken?

Why don't you tell me, Paco?

I'd be happy to.

It's from...

your early years
as a criminal mastermind.

When you and James Lam
were arrested

for extortion.

Only, Lam never went to prison.

And you did.

For a whole year.

That, my friends, is motive.

Ah, take it easy, Matlock.

Yeah, I hated him,
but I wouldn't kill him.

No, death just ain't
my bag, baby.

Well, if James Lam
were here today,

I'm guessing
he'd disagree with you.

Well, seeing as he's dead,
I guess we'll never know, huh?

How very convenient.

The prosecution rests.

McGarrett should've called Saul.

Maybe we should
take the deal.

Thank God. Please, tell me
Clark's guy pulled through

and he's willing to testify.

He died in surgery.

Well, what about Clark?

Can we find him?

I don't know.

He's in the wind.

(sighs)

It's up to you, bruddah.

Time for you to shine.

♪ ♪

What are you doing?

Odell, the judge just
put you on the clock.

You got... you got, like,
four minutes to get in there.

I don't need any more pressure,
McGarrett, okay?

I'm panicked enough
as it is.

What are you panicked about?

You got this.
You're gonna be fine.

Yeah, well, I'm-I'm
glad you think so.

What are you talking about?

Look, I promised myself I would
never be like my old man,

and now you're asking me
to just...

break that promise.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

You know,
it's funny, my, uh...

my dad and I didn't talk
for a long time.

Years and years.

I regret that time
in my life...

more than pretty much anything
that's ever happened.

I don't know what's going on
between you and your dad, Odell.

It's not my business.

But...

whatever it is,
you gotta resolve it.

Or you gotta let it go.

Right now...

Right now, there's a courtroom
full of people in there,

and there's an innocent guy
waiting for you,

so what do you want to do?

"E ho mai

ka Ike Mai Luna Mai e."

"Come, come bring us knowledge
and wisdom from above."

You only said
half the prayer.

I only know half of it.

Better than nothing.

Better late than never,
Counselor.

Tell you what.

You win this case,
I'll let you cut my hair.

My client, Sang Min Sooh,
is innocent.

He did not kill... James Lam.

No.

He was acting

as a confidential informant

for the Five-O Task Force

when the, uh, incident
in question occurred.

Now, we all know the Five-O,

and-and-and-and we know
all the hard work they do,

protecting this great
island of Oahu.

Their investigation
into human trafficking

led them to James Lam,

and they needed Sang Min Sooh's
help to bring him to justice.

And Sang Min was more
than willing to help.

He didn't waver.

He didn't...

he didn't worry
about his own safety.

He...

just said yes.

He just said yes.

Most people
would call that heroic.

Thank you.

(sighs)

Not bad for a barber.

And you're 100% certain

Sang Min Sooh fired
the murder weapon?

Our crime lab
technicians conducted

a gunshot residue test on scene.

The result was positive.

The slug that was pulled
from James Lam matched the gun

that Sang Min was in possession
of at the crime scene.

Was Sang Min Sooh
wearing a wire?

No, uh, it was too risky.

We needed to give him some space
to protect his cover.

Which means you didn't have
eyes on him at all times.

So then you have no proof Sang
Min Sooh didn't kill James Lam.

No, but we...

No further questions, Commander.

Prosecution rests.

Counselor Martin.

Counselor Martin?
Yes, yes, yes.

You may call your first witness.

(clears throat)

Uh...

The defense calls

Sang Min Sooh.

Aloha, Judge.

♪ ♪

Sang Min,

you're the only
person in this courtroom

that knows the truth...

about James Lam's murder.

Yeah, that's right.

Okay, well,
that-that would explain

why, uh, you were holding the
murder weapon when HPD arrived

and why you tested
positive for GSR.

That's the fact, Jack.

ODELL: Um, Your Honor,
defense would like to present

exhibits A and B
to the jury.

Proceed.
Thank you.

(mumbles)

Uh, these...

These photographs are
of the shell casings

found at the crime scene.

One is near the body,
as you see,

but the other... was found

by the inventory

of the warehouse.

That's where Sang Min said
he encountered the shooter.

So the-the locations
of these shell casings

corroborate his story.

Objection.

Counselor is speculating.

Your objection was
more convincing, bruddah.

Shh!
Sustained.

Um, thank you.

Um...

Can you tell us the name
of the man you fought with

at the crime scene?

Graham Clark.

Your Honor, I'd like
to show the jury exhibit C.

Proceed.

Thank you.

Okay.

This is a mug shot
of Graham Clark,

who is a suspected
human trafficker.

Is this the man you fought with?

Yeah, that's him.

PROSECUTOR:
Your Honor, I object.

Mr. Clark's not on trial here.

Sang Min Sooh is.

JUDGE:
Sustained.

Um, I...

withdraw the question.

Do you wear
prescription glasses?

Huh?

Do you wear
prescription glasses?

Glasses?

Yeah, glasses, eyeglasses.
Do you wear them?

I'm the perfect
package, bruddah.

(laughter)
No imperfections here, huh?

Yeah, well, maybe
you're not so perfect.

Do me a favor.

Read the Hawaiian state
seal right over there.

Don't look at me.

Read the seal.

Go ahead, read it.

You can't read it, can you?
No, I can't.

Huh?!

Now why don't we,
you know, get back

to the regular scheduled
program, huh, Judge?

Have you ever suffered a head trauma?
Does this head look trauma'd to you?

Sang Min, isn't it true
that Lieutenant Chin Ho Kelly

of the Five-O Task Force

hit you across the face
with an ash tray

the first time
he met you?

I don't remember!

Judge, please instruct my client
to answer the question.

The witness will answer
the question.

Yes.

Lieutenant Kelly hit me.

But to be fair, eh,
probably deserved it.

I'm gonna sue you
for entrapment.

And when I'm done collecting,

I'm gonna find that little
hottie you sent in here,

and this time, I'm gonna be
less of a gentleman.

I have no further questions
for the witness, Your Honor.

McGarrett, your man
is leaking oil.

He's doing something. Hang on.
ODELL: Hey.

(whispering): Okay, I need
you to do something for me.

Uh... defense calls
Dr. Max Bergman

once again to the stand.

The bullet that struck
Mr. Lam hit center mass,

and there was no starring
around the entry wound,

which would suggest that
the shot that killed Mr. Lam

was fired at a distance.

Okay, and now in your
expert medical opinion,

is it possible to suffer
long-term vision problems

after sustaining
a head trauma

like the one
my client received

at the hands
of Lieutenant Kelly?

In my expert medical opinion,

blunt ocular trauma
is known to cause myopia,

which in layman's term
is nearsightedness.

Nearsightedness.

ODELL:
Officer Kalakaua,

is it true that you're
an expert in marksmanship?

Yes.

Okay, the murder
weapon used

was a Beretta
model 86 Cheetah .22.

Now, how accurate
would you say that gun is?

The Beretta model 86
has a short barrel,

which means if fired
at a distance,

it's highly unreliable.

Highly unreliable at a distance.

So what would you say
the probability is

that a man with poor eyesight

who hasn't fired a gun

in over a year

could shoot a man
dead center mass

with a Beretta model 86
from 60 feet away

in a dark environment?

I'd say it's nearly impossible.

It is mandatory for every inmate
to receive a physical exam

before entering a prison
in the United States.

I pulled Sang Min's
records from Halawa.

He did a short stint
in 2008, at which time

his eyesight was 20/20.

However, his most recent exam
earlier this year

showed his eyesight
to be 20/100.

(courtroom chattering)

Apparently, Mr. Sooh was offered
spectacles at the time,

which he declined.

With my client's
poor vision,

there is no way he could
have fired the shot

that killed James Lam.

Thank you, Commander.

You're welcome, Counselor.

ODELL: My client has
a checkered past,

littered with bad decisions,

but... this case isn't
about the past.

This case is about
the here and now,

and the truth regarding
the here and now is this--

there's no way anyone can say
beyond a reasonable doubt

that my client is guilty.

And if you believe the word
of the Five-O Task Force

that the true killer's
still out there,

well...

then you cannot
in good conscience

convict an innocent man.

(sighs)

Mahalo.

Madam Foreman, has the jury
reached a verdict?

WOMAN: We the jury
find the defendant

not guilty
on all charges.

(clapping)
