It was yet another good episode of "Hawaii Five-0" again last night - it was 1x20 "Ma Ke Kahakai". It wasn't quite as I expected based on the promo I'd seen but I should know by now not to trust them, right?
I loved seeing Steve and Danny on their date hike (Steve inviting Danny to go with him is a conversation I would love to have seen). The place they went is obviously special to Steve so him inviting Danny to go with him (assuming that's how it was) shows how much their friendship has progressed and now much they mean to each other. Unless I'm reading too much into it, which I don't think I am. Nice to see him mention how it hasn't changed since he was a kid even though everything else has. Aww. He's a sensitive guy deep down, beneath all that badassery. I really hope it doesn't turn out that his father wasn't such a good guy after all. It would just be really horrible for him.
I felt really sorry for Steve when he fell - that arm looked painful - and it was cool when Danny was shouting for him not to move and went off to find somewhere he could get a signal and call for help. Then when he came back he decided to climb down anyway - now, why didn't he just do that in the first place? It's not like Steve couldn't walk or anything? It was nice to see Steve worried about Danny falling too.
Oh, and how quick did those rescue choppers arrive!
Of course much love for Danny's "I heart you" to Steve (scripted or ad libbed? Either way, fan service is what it was). It was totally random but at the same time the cutest thing ever. What other show would include a moment like that? I honestly can't think of one. Steve + Danny = Best Bromance Ever. I'm not even into slash but I almost want to slash these two. At the moment I love their platonic relationship.
And I love that Danny changed into his "work clothes" before going to Five-0 headquarters.
The Chin and Kono stuff was good too - interesting to find out what had really happened between Chin and the police force. Sad to think that his whole family had pretty much disowned him when one of the family members was responsible for it anyway. I wonder if he'll get to clear his name? I think part of him just doesn't want to rock the boat now. He's found a home with Team Five-0.
I did wonder a bit about their family set up. Their respective parents hadn't gone to visit their sick relative, had they? Have they been mentioned before? I can't remember.
Nice bit of banter between Steve and Kono - everyone on this show just has great chemistry. The whole team is almost like a family. Family seems to be an ongoing theme in this show actually.
I just love how much of a badass Steve is - he kicked that guys arse at the end with only one good arm! Incidentally, what's the deal with Danny not being allowed to sign that cast? Other people have done it and Steve was gonna let that random woman sign it (much love for jealous Danny, btw).
Oh, and hi Ando! I knew the name looked familiar when I saw it in the beginning credits and as soon as I saw him I knew why. I swear, every week there's another guest star I recognise in this show.
That computer desk thing they have? I want one!
Before watching H50 I watched "The Back-Up Plan" which is making it's premiere on Sky this week. I had a bit of an Alex O'Loughlin double bill which was nice. The movie was cute and he was adorable in it (I think he's sexier as McGarrett though. And I missed the tattoos). He had decent enough chemistry with Jennifer Lopez too (I think he has better chemistry with Scott Caan and the rest of Team Five-0 though). Had to laugh at the scene when she crashed her car because she was distracted by his shirtless chest! Hahaha!
I'd quite like to see Alex in something with his Australian accent. I have only seen him in four things (including part of an episode of "Moonlight" I saw once) though.
It's the "Glee" finale for me tonight. That's come around quick.
