Hawaii Five-O (1968–1980): Season 2, Episode 10 - All the King's Horses - full transcript

Rudy, you can walk the dogs.

You want Mike Finney
subpoenaed, you serve him!

Now, there's no
need to be so upset.

Well, he almost killed me!

Look, Mr. Irwin, I'm
not a young man.

But I'm not gonna get any older

working for you and Fletcher.

Man like Finney must
have an awful lot to hide

if he won't accept a subpoena,

right, Fletcher?

You can bet on it, Mr. Irwin.



You have a very long life-line.

No fooling.

Why should I kid you?

You're good for
another 30 years.

That's the best news
a cop could hear.

Believe it.

I come from a
long line of gypsies.

I bet.

What else do you see?

That's it.

Oh, come on. I can
do better than that.

Oh, let's see. I, uh...

I see some...

exotic oriental dishes
being served at a place called



the Jade Dragon?

How does that sound?

You're doing fine.
Anything else?

Yeah, something here.
I can't quite make it out.

It's, um...

Looks like a dance
floor at the Kauai Hilton,

dancing show after dinner.
How does that sound?

You're a real gypsy king, huh?

What about this
line, right here?

Oh, I'll tell you
about that one later.

I can hear the violins now.

Oh, excuse me,
honey. Just a minute.

Mr. Irwin. Mr. Irwin,

I'd like to talk to you
about Mike Finney.

Well, there's
nothing to talk about.

I'm going to put him in
jail where he belongs.

Then I shouldn't be telling
that to his friend, should I?

I think Finney's
hands are clean.

Just because Five-O says?

When you started
your hearings, we, uh...

We checked him inside out.

I sent you the results
of that investigation.

You sent them back unopened.

Why?

You're forgetting
I'm chief counsel.

I'm conducting my
own investigation.

Where? In the headlines? Is
that where you're going to try him?

Now, why would I do that?

For this.

Don't jump to conclusions.

You're liable to get in trouble.

You make it sound like

you're in business
for yourself, Mr. Irwin.

Five-O's job is
the investigation

of crime in the state.

The governor of Hawaii says so.

Now, if you know
something about Finney,

tell me, and I'll
help you bust him.

What do you know
that I don't know?

Fletcher.

Sorry, I don't serve subpoenas.

Well, that one's for you.

Oh, for me?

Tuesday at 10.

Be on time.

Hello, Steve.

Delighted you could come.

Senator.

I understand you're going to
appear at our hearing next week.

Oh, command performance.

Strictly routine.

How's the governor?

I suppose all this
talk about crime

has been embarrassing
to the governor?

But then it is a matter
of public interest.

Well, we'll see. I hope so.

Steve, I have all the
confidence in the world in Irwin.

I know he plays a little rough

but that's the only language

some of these
mobsters understand.

I want you to meet some
of the other members

of the committee.

That's Senator Kapalana
over there. He's from Molokai.

Get down!

Go.

"Army M-1 carbine.
Serial number 5876778.

Stolen April 6 from an ordinance
warehouse on Kaneha Street."

Fingerprints? Nothing.

Irwin's claiming an organization
hit. Triggered by Finney.

Figures.

What do you got, Chin?

Cast of footprints found
at the scene of the crime

indicates the man's
height about 5'10".

Weight, maybe 165.

What's for sure?

Lab boy say a size 10E
shoe, and he's right handed.

Well, that's openers. Kono?

Big item. A lady.

She lives near Senator
Colt. She heard the shots,

saw a guy running down
the beach from Colt's house.

He cut through her yard.
She kept her eye on him.

Saw him get into a
blue sedan and cut out.

License plates?

He took off too fast.

Anybody in the car with him?

She didn't notice.

She's at H.P.D. going
over mug shots now.

What else?

You can tell us
who faked it, Steve.

Six shots at that
distance, nobody misses.

That's for sure, Danno.

Not with a telescopic sight.

All right.

Check out a private
investigator named J. Fletcher.

Fletcher? I thought he was
working for the committee.

He gets paid by the
committee, but he works for Irwin.

Am I reading you right, Steve?

You think that Irwin set up
that attempt on his own life?

Maybe. What about Finney?

He'd like to get Irwin.

McGARRETT: Another maybe.

They say Finney's a hot head.

What else do you
know about it, Danno?

Nothing, except...
That's right, nothing.

I'm going to give you
a chance to meet him.

Call him, Danno.
See if he's home.

Tell him I'd like to see
him sometime today.

Is he listed?

Well, he's a citizen.

Sure, but look at his past.

That's what everyone's doing.

We got a file 4
inches thick on Finney.

Every rap sheet on the man

going back to a
bootleg booze operation

when he was 14 years old.

Yeah? McGarrett.

Yeah, Jenny, put him on.

Yes, governor? Yes, sir.

Yes, sir, I'm on my way.

Remember this, the key
word, gentlemen, is neutral.

Strictly neutral.

McGARRETT: Governor?

Oh, Steve.

I'd like you to meet
Senator John Oishi,

chairman of our state labor
investigating committee.

Senator. Sorry you
couldn't make the party.

I've heard a good deal
about you, McGarrett.

From whom? Mr. Irwin?

Yes, and from the governor

and from a good many
other sources I might add.

You have many friends
and many enemies.

Well, my old man used to
say the way to avoid criticism

is to say nothing, to do
nothing and to be nothing.

Well, Steve, I've
just told the senator

that your office would
cooperate fully with his committee

during the present inquiry.

Yes, sir. Your counsel
has already contacted me.

I'm sorry.

A subpoena was quite
unnecessary. I apologize.

Mr. McGarrett, I know these
legislative investigations

have a way of ruffling feathers,

but I assure you we
have no axe to grind.

The people are concerned about

the possible infiltration of
criminals into our unions.

And it is our duty
to investigate.

Fact or fiction, senator?

Well, sometimes it is
difficult to distinguish

one form the other.

I hope you can help
us in that regard.

Good day, governor.

Senator.

Thank you for your assistance.

Mr. McGarrett.

McGARRETT:
Senator, one question?

Of course.

How much do you really
know about Mike Finney?

What my counsel and his
paid investigator tells me.

You mean Irwin and Fletcher?

Yes.

Good day, Mr. McGarrett.

Good day, sir.

Steve.

There are many kinds of
politicians on this island.

John Oishi is an honest one.

I want you to help him.

But he's not running
the investigation.

Irwin is.

And squeezing it for every ounce

of political gain
he can promote.

Of course,

Mr. Irwin has his eye on
the office of attorney general.

Governor next?

Probably.

Do you want me to help
put him in office, governor?

Look, you know and I know

there's no crime syndicate
controlling our labor market.

Of course.

What I want you to do

is to make certain that
the public knows it, too.

There can be no question
of a cover up, Steve.

Are you talking about
the Mike Finney case?

That's exactly what I mean.
Now, what about Finney?

Well, he's an
ex-con from St. Louis.

Thirty years ago
he was an enforcer.

Served time for manslaughter.

But since he quit the rackets

and came to the
islands, I can tell you, sir,

that he's clean.
Absolutely clean.

What's your point, Steve?

Well, he served his
time. He paid his debt.

People do wrong
things in their lives.

If they didn't get a second
chance there'd be nobody around.

Now, I ran an investigation
on Finney in depth

and I can tell you, sir, that
Irwin has nothing on him

except his past.

Then Irwin can't hurt him.

Oh, he can hurt him.

Not with evidence,
but in the headlines.

It's gone too far
to stop, Steve.

If I tried to throw
a roadblock now,

I'd be accused of
trying to stop Irwin,

of playing politics.

Steve,

I want you to serve
Finney, personally.

Yes, sir.

Steve,

Look, I'll, uh...
I'll call Oishi.

He'll guarantee that the
man gets a fair shake.

You tell Finney that, huh?

Yes, sir.

Easy, Lobo. Easy, Bruiser.

Hey, Bruiser, Lobo.

Hey, hey. That a boy.

Hey, cut that out, McGarrett.
You want to ruin their act?

You dumb mutts. You're
supposed to be vicious.

Rudy, where's the boss?

Over there by the orchids.

Mike.

Ugh.

I want to talk, Mike.

You want to talk, I suppose
you mean I got to listen, huh?

Well, if you do,
it'll be the first time.

Okay, Mac.

Hi, Mike.

Danny Williams, Mike Finney.

Hi.

Another cop, huh?

Well, you come
to steal a flower?

Got anything worth taking?

Well, just step right over here.

So they got you to serve
the paper, huh, Mac?

How'd you know?

It's written all over you.

You know, I thought you were
too big for that kind of stuff.

Isn't that a beauty?

Cattleya Dendrobium.

Hybrid orchid, rare.

Huh?

You know there's not one person
in a thousand would know that?

Oh, he got... He
got hidden talents.

Besides, he's been browsing
in your store downtown.

Wise guy, huh?

Mike, why didn't you
testify voluntarily?

You'd have been
given a fair shake.

What do you mean fair shake?

It'd be the same
thing all over again.

The good guys
against the bad guys.

They're going to
put me in a hot seat

and they'll murder me.

Look, Mike, uh...
Come on, McGarrett.

Don't bull me.

I've been there
before, remember?

They haven't changed
the rules any, have they?

No. I know the score.

If I answer them like I
haven't done anything,

then they're gonna ask
me another question,

and then another
question and then...

they're going to start
asking me about my friends.

What are they up to?
How are they making out?

Who did they kill today?

And if I don't answer
them, take the fifth,

they're going to say I'm guilty.

If I do answer them, but I
won't talk about my friends,

they're going to
hold me in contempt.

Lock me up, throw away the key.

Finished?

Yeah.

Mike, the governor told me he'd
talk to the committee chairman.

The committee
chairman's a fair guy.

What about Irwin?

Mac, can you...

Is there anyway you can
make a deal for me? I...

Sorry, Mike. No deals.

Okay, cop.

You served your piece of paper.

Now go on, get out of here.

Dad.

Judy, what are you...?

This is my daughter, Judith.

Mr. McGarrett.
Mr. Williams. Five-O.

Are you involved with the
investigation, Mr. McGarrett?

Yeah, in a way. In
a way, Miss Finney.

In what way, Mr. McGarrett?

Selling papers?

"Finney named in..."

This your idea of a
fair shake, McGarrett?

Steve didn't lay
that on you, Finney.

You gonna let him do
your talking for you?

It's the truth, Finney.

No. No, it ain't true.

You're still a cop and
I'm still Mike Finney.

A cheap hood.

It's trial by press and abuse
of office and Irwin knows it.

He'd called a press
conference. It's unfortunate...

Then stop him, senator.

His tactics stink and
so does his purpose.

He doesn't care who he smears,

so long as it gets him into
the attorney general's office.

Mr. McGarrett, Irwin's
tactics are one thing.

Reports he has about
Finney are another.

Reports?

Or rumors and lies?

I'm not in the business of
defending racketeers, senator.

But I can tell you one thing.

Finney's only crime as
of now is that he was once

a big name in the rackets.

And still lives like a king off
money that came from crime.

Let me set the record
straight, senator.

Finney came to these
islands flat broke,

but he had guts and an
idea and he hit the jackpot.

Now, he's made big money
here, but he made it straight.

He's got a wholesale
flower business

catering to two
million tourists a year.

I didn't know that, Steve.

And something else.

Finney paid his debt, in prison.

When does a man
stop paying for his past?

That's a difficult question.

Is it?

Seems to be the Constitution
guarantees a citizen

freedom from harassment.

In 1941 I was also imprisoned.

Interned by the government
as an enemy alien.

I was a Jap for five years

an oriental for another ten.

Now, I'm an American,

but it was a long time before
people stopped looking at me

as if I were still the enemy.

This will not
happen again, Steve.

Thank you, senator.

See you soon.

Thank you, sir.

McGARRETT: Vince Watson, huh?

How positive was the witness?

She passed him up twice

before she pick him
out of the mug book.

She thinks he's the man she saw

running from the
senator's house.

She thinks he's the man
who got into the blue sedan.

Positive type lady.

Yeah.

What have we got on Watson?

"Vince Watson,
private investigator.

"License revoked May
3rd, 1966, unethical practice.

"Arrested armed robbery,
August '68. No conviction.

Prior to that he was a bail
bondsman for Joe Fletcher."

He worked for
Fletcher for two years.

Ah, so.

Pretty slim, Steve.

Yeah, slim, but it's a tie-in.

Our first real hook.

Now, I want Watson.
No A.P.B., no noise,

don't tip our
hand, just get him.

You make it sound easy, boss.

Danno?

Yeah, Steve.

Got a job for you.

Check Finney.
See if he knows a...

A Vince Watson.

Right.

This is our hearing
room, senator.

I hope it meets
with your approval.

Many years ago this
was a night court chamber.

I prosecuted my first case here.

And I'm sure you won.

Mr. Irwin, I am the
chairman of this committee

and I will not allow it to
be turned into a witch hunt.

I really don't know
what you mean, senator.

I will not have you
holding press conferences.

I explained to Senator
Colt and the other members

that I was misinterpreted.

You know, senator, the
press likes to sell papers.

Besides, Finney will have
his day in court, as it were.

Finney is not on trial.

I only meant that he
will have an opportunity

during the hearing to
present his case to the public.

What real evidence do
you have to connect him

to any labor racketeering?

Names, dates,

places of meetings he's had
with well known union leaders.

Don't worry. The whole package.

He's nailed.

I don't want him
nailed, Mr. Irwin.

I only want sufficient facts

to show he has done
something illegal.

Yesterday you accused
him of trying to kill you.

Can you prove it?

I will.

Joe Fletcher's
working on it now.

Unfortunately, he's been
running into a good deal of static,

particularly from
the Five-O people.

They're covering for somebody.

It wouldn't surprise me if it
goes higher than Mike Finney.

Remember one thing.

When the hearings begin,

I will call the shots.

You understand?

Of course, senator.
That's how it'll be.

Hello, Miss Finney.

What do you want, Mr. Williams?

I was at the house,
your father isn't there.

No.

Where is he?

Why can't you let the man alone?

I'm only doing my
job, Miss Finney.

Sure you are.

Have you ever seen this man?

No. Are you sure?

I'm sure.

Look, Miss Finney,
it's very important.

Where can I find your father?

I don't know.

But if I did know
I wouldn't tell you.

That's very intelligent,
especially for a teacher.

I teach handicap
children, Mr. Williams.

It doesn't require
a great brain.

A little love and
compassion go much further.

And the message is?

The message is you're a cop.

You look at my father
and you see a monster

with blood all over his hands.

Well, it was never like that,

even when he was
mixed up in the rackets.

What do you see
when you look at him?

I see a man who
worked and prayed

to be forgiven by
society, and he failed.

I'm sorry.

Sorry?

What for?

You don't pity those
who fail, Mr. Williams.

You help them.

Fletcher and I both agree.

He's the wrong man for
the job. I want him out.

No.

Senator, there are
many aspects of this case

that you're not aware of...

Charles, don't
get all lathered up.

I helped you put this
investigation together

and I'll help you
see it through.

Besides, it isn't
hurting my chances

for re-election at all.

But Oishi stays.

He's an old lady.

He's throwing a roadblock
into my investigation.

I'll talk to him. Straighten
things out. Don't worry.

You go and push Finney
or McGarrett, if you have to.

But leave Oishi alone.

Politics.

Well, let's just say

that there are a lot of Japanese
voters in my constituency.

Charles,

I want you to be the next
attorney general of this state.

I'll help you anyway I can.

I'm with you all the way.

Well, I have a Finance Committee
meeting. I have to get back.

Stay as long as
you want, gentlemen.

You have just been had.

He ain't with you at all.

No, he's playing it safe.

That's what I've
got to do, Fletcher.

Finney's guilty, I know it.

Sure.

And McGarrett's
covering for him.

I can take care of Finney
on the witness stand,

but I want McGarrett, too.

You don't suppose
he's getting a pay-off?

What else?

I want proof.

I know it won't be easy to find,

but sometimes even a false trail

leads in the right direction.

Right this way. Follow me.

Mr. Finney has the
prettiest variety of flowers

on the island.

Pau melia are
commonly called plumeria.

It will take two or
three hundred of these

lovely flowers to
make a single lei.

These attractive purple
flowers are Vanda orchids.

We also use
carnations or gardenias.

Though I think the orchid
makes the prettiest arrangement.

And now, you will
follow me, please,

upstairs.

Steve, just got a call
from Chin at the airport.

Watson's gone.

Gone?

Flew out at 5:00 yesterday.
Flight 8 to Los Angeles.

Positive I.D.?

He was smashed at the airport.

Made quite a scene.

One of the clerks
recognized his picture.

Okay, Danno, stay with it.

Have L.A.P.D. run an R & I.

Put out an A.P.B. from
Seattle to San Diego.

Right.

Don't you believe in
knocking, Fletcher?

Sure.

You state cops sure work late.

I got a proposition to
talk with you, McGarrett.

Now, look, it's way
after my bedtime.

I didn't come here
to play games.

I want to talk business.

Sure.

How much did you pay Watson

to stage that
phony hit on Irwin?

Why don't you ask Watson?

I will. You can bet on it.

I told you, I got a proposition.

Now, you can
take it or leave it.

Get out of here, Fletcher.

McGarrett, I know
you're Finney's pal.

I know you want to
get him off the hook.

Maybe I can fix it.

You're good at that, huh?

What's Finney got on
you, anyway, McGarrett?

You got a proposition for me?

Now, here's the deal... Hold it.

Go ahead.

Hey, you think I'm
nuts or something?

What's the matter, Mr. Fletcher?

Tape recorders make you nervous?

Well, you bet they do.

That figures.

Because you know exactly
how a tape can be edited.

How a nice innocent
proposition can be twisted around

so a tape can be used to
hang somebody in public.

Is that right, Mr. Fletcher?

Look, McGarrett, you can't do...

Get out. Get out!

I got a feeling
he won't be back.

Open the windows, Danno.

It's rank in here.

Careless.

Twelve gauge blue.

Never saw one like
that before, Steve.

Take a good look. It
tells the whole story.

I don't read you.

Twelve gauge, right?

That much I read.

Riot gun.

See the full hammerhead?

Right.

Blue. Self-load.

That means he's got to
measure his own powder, pellets.

Set his own wadding.

Control the pattern.
Can't hardly miss.

Then that means
a hit man. A pro,

Probably mainlander.

Exactly.

Start with the airport arrivals,
then check the cabbies,

car rentals, hotels.

Ask Chief Dan for
some extra manpower.

Turn this rock inside
out if you have to,

but find him.

I'm on it.

Boss.

Look at this.

And this.

Nice little frame
Fletcher was setting up.

Crude, but effective.

Yeah.

And with you out of the way,

they could bury
Finney good and deep.

Well, I'm in the way.

McGarrett, listen, if I
want to murder Fletcher

do you think I'm stupid enough
to do it here in my own office?

I don't know anything
about this, nothing.

You roust me out of
bed 3:00 in the morning,

bring me down
here... Shut up, Mike.

I was asleep in bed,
wasn't I, Williams...

I said shut up and listen!

I know you didn't kill Fletcher.

Heh. Well, then why...

Why do you bring me down
here at 3:00 in the morning...

McGARRETT: Now, will you listen?

It looks like some of your
old mainland pals are nervous.

Hm?

Maybe they think
you might sing a little?

I don't sing, McGarrett.

Okay, let's say they, uh, worry.

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe they worry.

As of now, you and your daughter
are under protective custody.

You think I'm
bananas, McGarrett?

I know the game,
I know the score.

I'll handle this my
own way. My self.

You'll handle what?

It's a contract
out on you, Mike.

I know all about
contracts, McGarrett.

I'm a businessman, remember?

Lock the door when
you leave, will you?

That guy's got a
strong death wish.

Or a plan.

Chin, you take Finney.

Danno, stay with the girl.

Miss Finney! Miss Finney!

G-g-g...

It's all right,
Johnny. It's all right.

Did you forget to say goodbye?

Can you say it?

G-g-g...

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Mind if I join you for lunch?

I don't suppose
this is a coincidence.

No, no way. It's my job.

Following me?

Yep.

Why?

Sit down.

Come on, sit down.

I asked why?

Because we don't want anything
to happen to you, that's why.

Well, as of noon,
you're out of a job.

I'm leaving on a vacation.

Too bad.

Why?

Well, we sort of got
off on the wrong foot.

I was hoping for a chance
to change first impressions.

Peanut butter.

Chicken.

Chicken?

Half of a half peanut butter?

With me it's a staple.

That boy... He really loves you.

I love him.

I love all of them.

All aboard.

Maybe when you get back...

Will there be anything
to come back to?

You've got those kids to
come back to, Miss Finney.

Bye, Mr. Williams.

Lousy cops tailing me.

I tell them to leave me alone.

Rudy.

Rudy?

Rudy?

Rudy?

Mike, Yeah.

I didn't see him.

Rudy.

He's dead, Mr. Finney.

Rudy.

Thirty years, me and Rudy.

A good friend,
companion and buddy.

Gin rummy.

Thirty years.

Who put out the
contract on you, Mike?

Talk to my lawyer,
will you, Mac?

Can't you see I'm
trying to help you.

I don't want your help.

We're on different teams, see?

I can't help you,
you can't help me.

That's the rules of the game.

Who's rules?

My rules.

Well, they stink.

So do yours.

In an hour or so Irwin's gonna
have me up on that stand.

He's just gonna tear me apart.

Why? Because I did
something wrong? No.

No, just because
that in his mind

I'm still a no-good
two bit hood.

And that's what
you're acting like,

a two-bit hood.

Right.

I know who put out that
contract on me. I know why,

and I'll tell you
something else,

maybe if I were in their shoes,
I'd have done the same thing.

Only, I wouldn't miss.

I'm still calling the shots.

Do you want to write your will?

Don't do it on my time.

Come on, McGarrett.

The hit man kills
Fletcher thinking it's me.

Now they get Rudy trying for me.

Do you think he's going
to miss three times or no?

Now, all the king's horses
and all the king's men

can't help Mike Finney.

And that's the
two and two of it.

Judith is on the plane.

Did you wait for the take off?

Flaps up.

Thanks, Williams.

She said:

Take care of yourself.

Anything else?

We might split a chicken
sandwich sometime,

somewhere.

Well, at least she's safe.

It won't happen to her the
way it happened to Rudy.

You sound like you don't
care whether you lived or died.

That the way I sound, Mac?

Kono, whether he likes
it or not, stay with him.

Come on, Danno.

Move fast, big boy?

Try me.

Central dispatch
calling McGarrett.

Central dispatch
calling McGarrett.

Yeah, Five-O. Go ahead dispatch.

Chin Ho, boss.

Yeah, Chin. What you got?

H.P.D. found the
car the hit man used.

About a mile from the shooting.

Lab boys are going over it now.

It's a hot wagon
stolen this morning.

Anybody get a
look at the driver?

No help, like playing ghost.

Yeah. Now you see
him, now you don't.

In and out of his sewer, huh?

I drew blanks at
motels, hotels, bars,

car rental outfits. You name it.

All right, Chin. Keep
after the hit man.

Will do, boss.

Thanks, Chin. Over and out.

Whoever he is, he's a pro.

Moving all the time. Yeah.

Yeah?

How's the weather?

I said, how's the weather?

Hey, look man. They got him
buttoned up so tight I can't...

Not interested.

You've missed twice already.

And you're getting a
fat price for this contract.

Either you deliver, or
we write another contract.

You got the message?

Yeah, I got it.

Enjoy.

Mr. Finney, have you
ever heard the statement,

I decline to answer the question

on the grounds it might
tend to incriminate me?

Yes, Mr. Irwin, I have.

I believe it's called
the Fifth Amendment.

Gentlemen, I suppose if I
had any brains I'd take it,

but I'm not going
to because I...

I have nothing to hide.

Good. It'll save us time.

Mr. Finney, I see you're not
represented by an attorney.

You have the right to one.

Yes, thank you,
senator. I'm aware of that

but I don't believe
I'll need an attorney.

I'm here for one reason only.

Of course, you were subpoenaed.

No, not because I
was su... Subpoenaed.

It's just because that
from the time I first set foot

on the island of
Oahu nine years ago,

I haven't done a thing
wrong, not a thing.

Nothing. And I want you
all to be well aware of that.

I want you all to
know that before...

Before what?

Before Mr. Irwin here starts
shooting off his big, fat...

Go ahead, hit me with it.

This man is a lifelong member
of the criminal conspiracy.

A man who has brought
murder and corruption to Oahu

while purporting
to be nothing more

than a grower and
seller of flowers.

It is the purpose of
this hearing to establish

that Michael Finney is still
a member in good standing

of the organization.

That he was sent
to Hawaii to infiltrate

and eventually
control our labor force.

And that he is fully
committed to that end.

No! That's... Quiet! Quiet!

Quiet! Quiet!

Quiet!

Welcome back to
Hawaii, Mr. Watson.

It wasn't in my plans,
McGarrett, believe me.

I do.

You're entitled to
have a lawyer present.

Is that what you call
respecting my rights?

That's the shorthand of it.

No. I think I'll play it by ear.

Let's start with me walking
down a street in Portland, Oregon.

Twenty-four hours after you
committed a crime here on Oahu.

No fooling?

Anyway, I'm pinched
and dragged back here.

You ever been slapped
with a lawsuit for false arrest?

Why?

You going to file
one against me?

I think so. I really think so.

Good. Who's going to
be your lawyer? Mr. Irwin?

Who's Irwin?

He's the man that
you fired at six times

when he was in the pool

at the home of Senator
Colt, remember?

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

I'm talking about you're
being hired for the job

by J. Fletcher,

Your one-time
business associate.

Hired to shoot
and hired to miss.

What are you trying to
lay on me, McGarrett?

We've got the weapon you fired.

We've got a description
of the car you used.

And we got a witness

who saw you running
from the scene of the crime.

An eye witness.

Ready to pick you
out of any lineup,

any time, any where.

You're a slob, Mr. Watson.

You've been snookered.

Now, you going to
take the rap yourself?

I will ask the question again.

What is your connection
with one Milton Carver?

I knew Milton Carver
on the mainland.

That's all.

Isn't it a fact, Mr. Finney,
that you saw Milt Carver,

a syndicate gunman on June
11th of this year in your office?

Nope. I never even
knew he was on the island.

And on that day, the
11th, didn't Carver

come to your office
this time to discuss

the reason you sent for him?

No. I haven't seen
him in nine years.

And on the 12th, one day later,

didn't he again
come to your office,

this time to report
he'd finished the job

you wanted done?

No! No, these are
lies. These are all lies!

And wasn't that job the
murder of a local union head

who fought your control
to take over his union?

No! I...

Senator.

Quiet!

Senator.

Senator, excuse me, sir.

There's a hearing in
progress, Mr. McGarrett.

Well, I've heard you say
the purpose of hearings

of this sort is to expose
the face of the enemy.

I think we've done
that, Mr. Irwin.

Senator, I have here a statement

signed and sworn to
by one Vince Watson.

I'd like you and the rest
of the senators to read it.

Highly irregular, Mr. McGarrett.

It was highly irregular
for Mike Finney

to be called here on
such hearsay evidence.

And highly
irregular for Mr. Irwin

to attempt to frame me.

I'll explain that later.

Watson was paid by Fletcher

to stage a phony
assassination attempt.

What about Irwin?

His idea.

He wanted to lay it off
on you in the headlines.

Is that document something
I should see, senator?

You will get a copy of it

because it will be used
as evidence against you.

I'm talking about a disbarment
proceeding, Mr. Irwin,

and possible
criminal prosecution.

Stay with him, Kono.

Hold it. Police officer.

You get him, Mac?

Irwin, too?

Good man.

You said you'd
do it, and you did.

McGARRETT: Easy...
easy, Mike. Easy.

Ambulance?

On the way.

Ah, save it.

All the king's horses,

and all the king's men
can't put Mike Finney...

Whoa.

He left you his
prize orchid, Danno

Said to water it
only once a week,

and no more.

He never got his second chance.

Well, not in this world anyway.
