Hawaii Five-0 (2010–…): Season 8, Episode 24 - Ka Lala Kaukonakona Haki 'Ole I Ka Pa A Ka Makani Kona - full transcript

Steve joins Junior and his SEAL team on a mission to capture an elusive person who is holding his mentor hostage; Gerard and Kamekona help Lou and Tani on a murder case involving art stolen by Nazis in World War 2. (#192)

Previously on Hawaii Five-O...

How's that water, tadpoles?
That toasty enough for you?

The Navy SEAL is a man.

A man who would
lay down his life.

A man who will persevere
in the face of adversity.

Life is unpredictable.
Wouldn't you agree?

Yeah, I would.

I mean, I for one
never knew

I had a sister.

How do you know
where my wife is?

What matters is I have
people there right now



waiting to hear from me.

You've made your point, Noriko.

You have six hours

to get me the money.

What else could
you possibly need?

An alibi.

Just had a body wash up
on Ka'alawai Beach.

GSW to the back of the head.

Steve, it's Noriko.
Adam's sister.

Hey, there's my guy!

What's up, buddy?

Hey, boo-boo,
what are you doing?

- Hi.
- Hey.

You guys have a
nice time together?



My God, it was amazing.

Yeah?
Like, off the charts.

That's awesome.

Well, listen, any time
you want to hang out

with Eddie, you
just let me know.

Noelani, I had no idea
you were so, uh,

you were such a big fan of dogs.

What? Come on, me?

Huge fan.

Like, massive.

Big-time.

Huh.

Okay, fine.

Look, there's
this really cute guy

that I see
at the Blue Tree Café

most days before work,
and I always hear him talking

to the barista
about his rescue dogs,

and, well, I needed an in.

Okay, so Eddie
was your wingman.

It's pathetic, right?

No, it's not pathetic.

I won't tell anyone.

Come on-- did it work?

Actually, we're having drinks
in a couple hours.

Boom. So, no.

It's not pathetic,
it's awesome.

I thought, uh, your generation

only met people
on those dating apps.

I'm old-school.

- Huh.
- Anyway, mahalo for understanding.

No problem, no problem.
It's good to know

that the Blue Tree's cool
with dogs, I like that place.

Oh, they're not.

I kind of told them

that Eddie was
my emotional support animal.

Okay.
I know it's wrong,

but it's not like I did it

just so I could bring him
on a plane.

Good point.

Well, I should get going.

Still need to go home
and change.

- All right.
- Good-bye, buddy.

Good work today.

Thank you.

You want to try this?

Yeah?

All right, here you go.

You ready?

Da-da-da, sit.

It's hot, it's hot.

Okay? Is that good?

Hey, if I don't finish mine,
you can have seconds, okay?

Hey.

Yo.
I just ran into Noelani.

She looks like
she's in a good mood.

Oh, yeah, she met a guy.

Yeah, that'll do it.

Tell you what, man,
another five minutes, and, uh,

you probably would've lost
your steak to the big boy.

Oh, yeah,
sorry I was late.

I just was looking
at apartments,

I just-- guess I just
lost track of time, so...

You should check this place out,
it's pretty awesome.

You know, it's just
a one bedroom, laundry,

you know, underground parking.

You know,
it's a great neighborhood.

That's very nice.

Very nice, I see
they have appliances.

Yeah.
Ah, that's good, man.

Uh, secured parking-- it's nice.
Yeah.

I didn't... I-I didn't know
you were moving out.

Well... well, not yet.

You know, I still need to apply,
and I might not get it, so...

Oh, just, I mean, I just...
mi casa su casa, you know?

You can stay here
as long as you like.

Of course, uh, of course,
you know, I-I...

I mean, uh, it's not that
I want to leave, I just figured,

at some point, you know...

No, you should, it's good--
good for you, good for you.

I-I never even had
my own place, I, uh...

I went from here to boarding
school, to the Navy,

and then, somehow, I, uh,
I ended up back here again,

so, you know...

Yeah.

It's good.

Hey, you know what?

On second thought, I, uh...

They always say, don't go with
the first thing you see, right?

I mean, uh, there's plenty
of stuff out there, you know?

You think I should keep looking?

Yeah, I would.

It's just, there's a lot
of places-- I just...

Don't sell yourself short.

Yeah, I think
I owe it to myself.

- I would, I would.
- Mm-hmm.

Okay, all right.

I would.
Hey, uh, you want another beer?

- Definitely.
- Yeah, I'm gonna grab another one.

Okay.

Hey, Junior,
these are almost done!

Hey, what happened,
we run out of beer?

Junior.

Junior.

Yo!

Junior?

Captain Grover,
good to see you, old chum.

How's the 'ohana?

Angry.

I had to ditch
my family at the movie...

theater, when your text came in.

I mean...

Why am I here?

There's been a terrible crime.

You mean, the woman
who got stabbed

during the break-in here?

You know, the Honolulu
Police Department

investigates such crimes.

I'm not talking
about the murder.

This is a different crime.

Oh.

Oh, and actually,
she was stabbed 13 times.

There was blood
all over the place.

It was like The Shining in here.

But thanks to
Crime Clean,

you could never tell, right?

It's about
to be The Shining

up in here again
if you don't get to the point.

Better if I show you.

Boom.

What do you mean, "boom"?

Boom.

Two paintings. So what?

So, they're not just
any paintings.

These are old masters.

Part of a collection
that went missing

during World War II.

And it looks like somebody
found 'em. So what?

When I say "went missing,"

it's a synonym for "stolen."

Why don't you just say "stolen"?

Okay. Stolen!

By who?
The Nazis.

Oh.

Oh!

Oh, well...

how'd they end up
in here?

Hey.
Commander, hi.

I apologize.
I just got your message

a few minutes ago.
Huh.

I appreciate you coming over.

Oh, sorry. This is Manti.

- Howzit?
- Manti, this is Commander McGarrett

and Officer Rey.
- Hi. - Hi.

Nice to meet you.
Hey, I'm sorry

to interrupt your night.

Hey, what's a first date
without an unplanned trip

to a total stranger's house,
right?

- Right.
- Any word on Junior?

No. It's like he just vanished.

Noelani, when you
saw him here earlier,

did he say anything to you?

- We chatted for a second.
- He was in a great mood.

Said he found an apartment,
and that was it.

Okay. Excuse me. McGarrett.

Commander.

Junior. Hey, hey, hey.
Where are you?

Yeah, I'm sorry
for disappearing like that.

Uh, they said there was no time.

What are you talking about?
Who's "they"? Where are you?

I'm in Pearl City.

Uh, a rep from my old SEAL team
came to get me.

I'm being recalled
from the reserves.

He's being deployed.

Okay, understood.

Look, uh, appreciate the call.

Sir, there's something else.

What's that?

The op is a kill
or capture mission

for a high-value target
in Nigeria.

Code name is "Reaper."
Hey.

That's classified information.
Why are you telling me this?

Just listen to me, please.

Their latest Intel suggests

that the target's location
has minimal security.

Reaper doesn't want it
to be known.

But there's talk
that they may have hostages

who could become collateral.

One of them is an American
who disappeared last year

while working
as a private contractor.

Sir, they think
it may be Joe White.

I know you two were close,

so I thought I should tell you.

Okay.

Commander Park.

Can I help you?

My name's
Commander Steve McGarrett.

Junior told me about you.

If you've come for him, I'm
afraid the Navy has first dibs.

That's not why I'm here.
Your target

may be holding a former
Navy SEAL commander hostage.

I want to come with you
and bring him home.

First off, how the hell did you
come by that information?

Sir, when a member

of my team
suddenly gets deployed,

you can't blame me
for making a couple of calls.

Commander Park,

I called him.

You shared
classified information

on an active mission?

Yes, sir.
'Cause I knew

if I asked for
your permission,

you'd say no.
You're damn right.

And if we hadn't called you in

because we were short
on personnel,

this would be the fastest
a guy was kicked off an op

in the history of the Navy.

All due respect,
Commander Park.

If it wasn't
for Joe White,

I wouldn't even
be a SEAL today.

He trained me.

Sir, he pushed me
through BUD/S.

He was my father when my father
couldn't be there.

If there's even a remote chance

that man is downrange,
I'm gonna find him.

Like hell you are.

This is way too personal

for you.

And besides that,
there's no hard Intel

that Joe White
is even on that compound.

Okay.

Then know this.

I'm gonna be right behind
you boys, all right?

I'm gonna be on the next plane
out of here.

I know the region.
I've run 100 ops like yours.

Just know when
you're downrange,

the shadow right behind you,
that's gonna be me.

Okay? So tell your boys
not to shoot me.

McGarrett!

Yes, sir.

All right.

You want in? Fine.

But understand something.

Our mission is Reaper.

If Joe White is on that compound

and doesn't compromise the op,
we'll get him.

But do not forget the priority.

Those are my orders.

Are we clear?

Yes, sir.

Gear up.
Yes, sir.

Zephyr command,
this is Zephyr 0-1.

I passed Omaha. How copy?

Good copy.
Zephyr 0-1 passes Omaha.

You took a big risk
doing what you did.

Yeah, I like to think if I got
kicked out of the reserves,

I had a pretty cool job
to fall back on.

It's not just that.

I know the teams are like
a second family to you.

You risked all that by calling
me, and I appreciate it.

Five-O is family.

And I know how important
Joe is to you.

I think it's
pretty safe to say

my life would be very different
if Joe never came into it.

It's crazy to me how somebody
who's not even blood

can make such
a giant impact, you know?

Yeah, I think I know.

What happened? What happened?

My leg's broke.
I thought it might be.

We started taking fire
on the float down.

And when I touched down,
you were still in the air.

You had to ditch
from 50 feet up.

Crashed through a tree.

Where's backup?

Backup would be nice.

Problem is,
our comms are useless

until we get out of this valley.

What's wrong
with my shoulder, Joe?

Am I shot?

Yeah, you are.

Through and through?
Yeah, it's out.

Well, that's good.

We got to keep moving. There's
still hostiles in this area.

You got to leave me here, Joe.

No. We're gonna make it
up to that ridge,

we're gonna get a signal
and call for exfil.

Now come on,
let's go.

There's something wrong with
you, you know that, Joe White?

Something very wrong with you.

Hirsch, this is
Officer TANI Rey.

Oh. Hi. Yeah, Kono mentioned

you were gonna take on some
new blood. Uh, Gerard Hirsch.

CEO of Crime Clean.

- Hi.
- Oh, and on the DL, Five-O's top C.I.

Nice to meet you.
Yeah.

Kono mentioned it, huh?

You really expect me to believe
that you two are still in touch?

Are you kidding?
We text every day.

Okay, I text her every day,
and sometimes she responds.

My man Hirsch told me

you might've come
across some stolen art

at a crime scene.

Oh, he did, did he?

Move over.

Yes, he did. So what
are we gonna do about it?

"We"? Pardon me,

but I was unaware
that we would be

discussing
an ongoing investigation.

Why not?
Well,

for starters,
it's none of your damn business.

Oh, a-actually,

Kamekona is

a silent partner in Crime Clean.

So it is, quite literally,
his business.

That's right.

Since it was Crime Clean
that brought the stolen art

to Five-O's attention,

I'm entitled to a sit-in.

Fine.

You can stay.

TANI, run it, please.

So, here's what we know.

The victim is Sherry Wagner.

She's survived
by her husband, Kurt.

Kurt's family
is from Gunzburg, Germany.

His grandfather emigrated to
the U.S. after World War II.

So if he was part of the SS,
it's possible that he stole

the paintings when the
Nazis were looting Europe.

I knew it.

Yeah, slow
your roll there, Sherlock.

We also spoke
with the FBI Art Theft Unit.

They warned us those paintings
could very possibly be fake.

I was a master forger
in a previous life.

They're real.

That's great.

We still have to check them.

Well, yeah, that might be
a problem there, sistah.

If those paintings
are legit,

soon as you ask to see 'em,

your boy Kurt's gonna
get rid of 'em quick.

Wow, that's actually,
uh, very true.

We just have to pause

this art thing.

We got to focus
on Wagner's killer.

Well, of course,
the husband did it.

Yeah, it's always the spouse.

Yeah, you should look into him
right away.

We should look into him.
Why-why didn't we think of that?

Yeah.

You know, maybe it's time
we switch jobs.

Mm.

Me and you will sling shrimp

and mop up blood.

And that way,
these two geniuses

can go around
solving crimes

and picking up the bad guys.

♪ What you gonna do? ♪

♪ What you gonna do
when they come for you? ♪

♪ Bad boys, bad boys,
what you gonna do? ♪

I can't tell

if they're being sarcastic.

The husband
has an alibi.

The cell phone
records show

that he was out of town
when the murder took place.

In fact, he just got back
in town about an hour ago.

We've already set up
an interview at the Palace.

Gonna take place
in a few minutes.

That's a good idea.

Maybe ask him
if the wife had any enemies.

Put together a list

of potential suspects.

You're just full of good ideas.

All right, me and Hirsch
will sit tight. Once you catch

the killer,
we'll get back to the art.

Yeah.

You got to get back to that house
and test those paintings today.

What? You just said
that we should w...

Come on, brah.

Keep up.

If this Wagner guy knows
where the art came from

and knows the cops
might've seen 'em,

them paintings
gonna be gone real fast.

And it'd be a real
shame if the ancestors

of the original owners lose
the chance of getting 'em back

and Crime Clean loses
a great PR opportunity.

So what's our next move?

The Eagle has landed.

Took you long enough.

Five-O's probably done
with the husband.

You know, breaking and entering
is not part of my résumé.

Luckily, I finally remembered
I did some business

in the upstairs bathroom earlier
today and cracked the window.

That's knowledge I don't need.

Okay.

So how long is this gonna take?

Uh, it shouldn't take long.

Just some easy tests.

Especially the X-ray scan.

See, painters up until the early
20th century used lead paint.

So, if there's any lead
in these pieces,

then they're probably
the real deal.

Hello?

Hirsch?

Hirsch.

Hirsch,

you find the lead yet?

Hello?

Junior and Steve

are gonna be
just fine.

Relax.

It's not like they haven't done
anything like this before.

I know.

You know, I got to say,
I'm happy we have a case.

Could use a distraction.
Well, I'm right there

with you, kiddo.

By the way,

next apartment you look at,

make sure it's pet-friendly
so Eddie can come hang, okay?

Really?

Yeah. I'll help you
look when we get back.

Steve.

Go ahead.

We found something.

Come to our position.

Roger that.

Moving.

Hey, these are our guys.

Special Forces.

Looks like
somebody stripped

the bodies.

Tags are gone.

Center peel!

Center peel!

Junior!

Clear!

These aren't the guys
we're after, are they?

No.

I'm thinking Nigerian pirates.

Probably the same guys
that stripped these soldiers.

Hey, so what
do you have in mind?

We got to minimize this gunfire.

Set point's
only a couple of klicks away.

If the target gets wind
we're here, the op's blown.

Okay, so if you want to do
something, you got to do it now.

Roger that.

Hey. Hey, hey!

Hey. Okay, easy, easy.

Hey, hey, hey.

Huh? Okay.
You stop.

Okay, I stop. Okay, okay.
No more forward.

No more forward.

No more.
Where are the other men?

Back here. They're right back here.

Right back here.
I'll take you to 'em.

Drop your gun.

Okay. Okay, okay.
Drop your gun.

Hey.

You kidding me?

- You wore your plates for this one?
- Yeah.

Yeah. I know myself.

I make bad decisions sometimes.

You are one crazy frogman,
you know that?

Yes, sir.

Commander, we got
dog tags here.

U.S. military watches,
knives.

Commander.

This is Joe White's gun.

Fathom to base.

This is Fathom. Over.

Take a hint, Joe.

What are you doing?

No, you keep that.

No, are you kidding?

This is baseball weather.

You island kids

aren't built for anything
but 70s and sunshine.

Let me ask you something.

That girl, Catherine...

what's the deal there?

That ever gonna happen?

What do you mean?

I mean... I've seen the way
she looks at you.

It's very clear
the feeling's mutual.

What are you waiting for, Steve?

She's a lieutenant.

We work together. We're friends.

I don't want to screw that up.

She's smart.

She's pretty.

She can assemble a rifle
in under 30 seconds in the dark.

Not asking her out is a screwup.

Let me see that.
No.

That looks worse than it is.

Come on up. Ready?
Yeah.

You can move much faster alone.

You need to leave me here.

No. I'm fine.

Stubborn son of a bitch.

We're gonna make it
through this, both of us.

I made a promise.

What are you talking about?

A promise to who?

We're gonna stop here
for the night.

Okay.
I'm gonna hide you

and keep watch.

Try to get a signal
up at the ridge.

Okay, Joe.

Take this.

It's all we got.

Insist on telling me
every ten minutes

I can run and you can't.

I can still run
faster than you.

Yeah, probably.

What about our guys?

We're gonna leave 'em
the way we found 'em for now.

We'll come back later,

bring 'em home.

Hello.

Kurt, it's Barb.

I've been trying
to reach you all day.

How are you doing?

Not good.

I'm so sorry.

I know how much
you loved Sherry.

Everyone did.

I was out of town.

She wanted to go, but
it was for business.

We wouldn't even have
seen each other.

I don't even remember

the last thing
I said to her.

Yeah, I'll be sure
to let you know the details

once we decide which church.

Look, I'll check back with you
in the morning.

Why don't you get some rest?

Thank you, Barb.

I will.

Zephyr base.
This is Zephyr 0-1.

- I passed Texas.
- Damn it.

What do you got?

- RPGs.
- Intel said

it was breachable,
minimal security.

Doesn't look breachable to me.

No, it looks like
a suicide mission.

What are you doing?
You shouldn't be here.

It's too soon.

Relax.
I came in through the back door.

- I thought we said we...
- I know.

I know what we said.
I just...

I don't care.

I needed to see you.

Kurt...

One, this is Zephyr command.

This is Zephyr 0-1.
I have you loud and clear.

Stand down.

Entering that compound
is too risky-- we can't afford

the target escaping
in a firefight.

Not to mention you're
outnumbered, and RPGs mean

we can't send in
the Chinooks as backup.

You're to hold your positions

and get a visual on Reaper.

Zephyr command out.

It sounds like we're
not gonna be the ones

who take out the target.
Look, if Park

is about to get authorization
to launch an air strike

on this compound and there
are still hostages inside,

we need to get 'em out
before that happens.

I agree, but our
orders are to get Reaper.

Like Park said, if we go in
and there's contact,

he could get away.

Okay, so I go in alone

while you guys hold security
on the exfil points.

That way, if Reaper runs,
you take him out from here.

That's a serious risk for a hostage
we don't even know is in there.

Listen, there was a time
when Joe White

could have given up on me,
and he didn't.

And if he's in
that compound,

there's no way I'm about
to start giving up on him.

Okay, well, you need someone
to watch your back.

No, absolutely not.
Sir,

we're not cops today,
we're SEALs.

So that means
you ain't my boss,

so I'm coming with you.

You guys good with that?

We're good.
We got your back.

Come on.

You're welcome.

Okay, I'm lost.

I did your job for you, Officer
Rey.

- I cracked the case. Basically.
- And how did you

basically crack the case?

Oh, Kurt Wagner

is having an affair.

And this is the evidence
that proves it.

You stripped the sheets
off the man's bed?

And replaced them with new ones.

That is gross.

I think it's pretty clear
what went down, though.

The guy killed his wife
for another woman.

But don't ask us where
we got that lead.

'Cause we're not at liberty
to divulge that information.

What's important here is,
you need to get

this lady's DNA off
of these sheets,

bring her in and
get her to flip.

Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy.
But what if the woman

isn't in the system--
you ever think about that?

You know, unlike the two of you,
everybody in the world

- doesn't have a criminal record.
- Well, just on the other hand,

even if she's not in the system,
we can get the DNA

from the sheets--
it gives us eye color,

hair color, ethnicity--
we can cross-reference

that profile with anybody

in Kurt's life.
Eh.

Narrow down a list
of possible paramours. Exactly.

Oh.

I almost forgot.

Those paintings are
completely real.

I got to do the tests

this morning when Kurt
and his mistress left.

Maybe your idea of
us switching jobs

wasn't so crazy, was it?

Yeah, the big guy's right.

We could totally be cops.

No sweat.

All right, Kamekona,

take these
nasty-ass sheets down

and book 'em into evidence,
like a real cop.

Yeah. Love that.

Actually,
that was all you, Hirsch.

I don't want to steal
the spotlight, brother.

Hey, Joe,
Joe, it's me, it's me.

Steve.

It's Steve.

Steve?
Yeah, it's me.

Come on.

Okay. I'm getting
you out of here.

Can you walk?

I think so.

Okay.

Can you do something
about that shackle?

Yeah.

Are you here
with the Navy?

Yes and no.

All right. Oh.
I got something

that belongs to you.

I think in this moment I'm
supposed to say something brave

and selfless like,
"you shouldn't have come,"

but the truth is,
I'm damn glad you did,

'cause I want to get
the hell out of here.

Let's go home, Joe.

Okay.

Joe White,

meet Junior Reigns.

Honor to meet you, sir.

The honor's mine, son.
Thanks for coming.

Go ahead.

Steve, Junior,
we have a problem.

Air strike is a go.
What is it?

Navy just launched
an air strike.

Missiles are inbound
as we speak.

This place is about
to be rubble.

Missiles are set to hit this
place in less than four minutes.

We got to move right now.

Guys, hold up. I got men
gathering outside the exit.

Copy that.

We got to find another way out.

This compound was built on
the site of an old mosque.

They often had tunnels
underneath

to access burial sites.

I remember hearing a guard
talking about a passageway once.

So, if we can find
our way underground,

we might have a chance
of surviving this blast.

There's just
one problem--

I don't know how
to get down there.

Then we need
to find somebody who does.

Moving.

Do you speak English?

Huh?

Yes?

Listen to me
very carefully.

Cruise missiles
are inbound right now.

They're gonna turn this place
into rubble in two minutes.

Look at me. Look at me. Do you
understand what I'm saying?

Do you understand?

You want to live,

you're gonna take us
to the tunnels

underneath this building.

Move.

Go. Go.

60 seconds. Let's go.

Go, go, go!

Go!

Go, go, Junior, go!

Where's the guard?

He's gonna tell anybody
who's left that we're down here.

There's only one way out.

Yeah, which means
whoever is left

is gonna be waiting out there
for us.

We can't outrun 'em.

We're gonna stop here
and try to hold them off

till the chopper arrives.

- It should be here in a few minutes.
- Joe.

There's 20 of them
and two of us.

We're gonna be dead
in a couple minutes.

We're not dying today, son.

But I want you
to promise me two things.

When we make it back,

I want you to ask Catherine out.

And I want you
to visit your dad,

and I don't want to hear,
hear you say no, either.

That's how you pay me back
for this.

You got one father,

and despite what you may think,

that man loves you.

Okay, Joe. Okay, Joe.

Sorry for the call.

Don't be.

I would have done
exactly the same thing

if the tables were turned.

On the contrary,

thank you.
For what?

Showing up on my doorstep
seven months ago.

Hug it out, guys,
get it over with.

We got to get out of here.

All right, boys, this is it.

- It's been an honor serving with you two.
- Oh, yeah.

Moments like this, I like
to say, "Try not to miss."

Thank you for that
pearl of wisdom, Joe.

Follow me.

So Kurt Wagner,

super rich dude who wants out
of his marriage,

but it's gonna cost him.

So what's the solution?

He kills his wife, of course,

but to pull that off,
he has to have

a rock solid alibi, doesn't he?

And that's when you come in.

Come to find out that you've
spent the last three days

on the island of Lanai.

And coincidentally,

location records
for Kurt's phone

also suggest

that he was on Lanai as well.

Problem is, nobody
that was staying

at your hotel
ever remembered seeing him.

Oh, you know who did
see him, though?

Hmm?
Your next-door neighbor.

It turns out
that Kurt was staying

at your place
while you were out of town.

With Kurt's phone.

Whoops.

It was a good plan, Olivia.

And if we wouldn't have
gotten on to you,

we'd have never
found out the truth.

But you slipped up

last night with your little
box spring bongo party.

Hey.

You all right?

Thanks again.

Come on.

You probably would have died
in that place, you know.

I couldn't let
that happen,

not after everything
you've done for me.

Listen, when we were
in Afghanistan,

you said you made a
promise to keep me alive.

I'm surprised
you remember that.

You were pretty out of it.
I remember.

And it wasn't till years later
that I realized

that promise you made,

that was to my mother,
wasn't it?

Of course, at the time,
I thought she was dead.

Even if I hadn't promised her,

I would never
have left you there.

I know that.

You know, the day I got back,
I asked Catherine out.

Hmm.
Yeah.

Then I went to
see my dad, too.

Because of you, I got
to spend some great time

with him before
he was gone.

Thank you for that.

More than saving my life,

thank you for that.

You didn't forget
your ID, did you?

Nope.

ID, boarding pass,

priceless art:
check, check, check.

I, uh, Googled the family.

Seems like they've fallen
on some hard times,

but they sell some of these,
take care of everything.

Well, and if they do,

you'll be the one
who's responsible

for changing their lives.
Good.

That's what we do--
we help people.

I don't know
if I'll go that far.

I help people,

you mop up
their blood and guts.

You can't let me
have this, can you?

You know, back when
I was doing forgery

and brokering deals
on the black market,

it was very satisfying...

financially,

but it didn't do much in terms
of, uh, feeding the soul.

But, uh...

helping out these people...

makes me feel good.

Let me enjoy that.

Hey, um, Hirsch.

Hirsch, you did
an amazing job.

Hell, if it wasn't for you,

we probably would
have never gotten justice

for Sherry Wagner, and...

Now here you are,
getting ready to fly

to the mainland on your own dime

to do
this wonderful thing for...

a bunch of complete strangers.

I ought to be ashamed of myself.

I'm proud of you, man.

Hey, hey. Gee, now.

I, uh, um, oh--
all right.

Maybe lunch next week?

Player, calm down.

Hey. W-- Stop with the begging.

Are you-- you're enormous.

What, did you put on nine pounds
while I was away?

How'd you even do that?

Hey, uh, when you said you gave
Eddie a few treats,

how many is "a few"?

I don't know,
like three or four.

What, like, every hour?

Sorry. Maybe we partied
a little hard,

but you get what you pay for,
you know.

Which is exactly what I'm gonna
tell Adam and Kono

when they come back and all
their plants are dead,

because you know what?
They never even told me

how much water to put in,
and I don't know.

Well, I wouldn't worry
about that too much,

because it didn't look like Adam

was planning on coming home
any time soon.

After what his sister did
to Jessie,

can you really blame him?

Hey, I got to let you go, okay?

I got a smoke detector
that's on its last legs.

Got to find batteries.

Okay. I'll see you tomorrow?

Okay. Bye.

But, Adam, don't you think you
should stay and work the case?

Don't you want to see
Noriko put behind bars?

You're so close, Adam.
As far as I'm concerned,

prison would be
letting her off easy.

She deserves worse.

A lot worse.
