Thoughts on Alaheo Pau’ole, episode 12

Good episode! A little bit of everything, but maybe not enough of the wedding. But I guess the show is a crime-drama.

C’mon, we all want to see the Five-0 team doing the bunny hop, right??

The Chicken Dance!

Yes! I love that even better! I have a few screencaps where it looks like Danny is doing the hula (from a S1 episode)....Hmmm...

Thanks for the comment!

"Danny and the hand grenade! Oh, my! How many people shouted “You’ve been hanging out with McGarrett too long!” either before or with Chin? Show of hands? Yes, just what I thought!"

::raises hand:: I totally did that! I actually really liked that scene (it seems like a few fans thought it was out of character). It really made me smile. Loved Chin's face.

I really can't figure out Joe. Terry O'Quinn is doing a good job portraying him because I can't figure out if he's keeping things from Steve for his own good or not.

I loved the sadness from Danny during the wedding - you're review is the only one I've read that's mentioned it (apart from my own). Scott Caan did great there.

I liked reading your review as it's positive - most of the others I read weren't really. This episode wasn't a favourite but it still had things I liked.

*raises hand* Me too! Totally agree it was a great scene and didn't think it was out of character at all.

Thank you so much! I think "You've been hanging out with McGarrett too long" is going to pop up again. I thought it fit Danny's character okay. A little to the extreme edge of his character maybe! I'm going to have to go back and look at Chin!

I'm off to read your review! Scott can be such an expressive character, and it fit so well that Danny would be happy for Chin and yet reminded of his own loss in marriage (especially after the second relationship with Rachel). It's what real people feel, a mix of emotions sometimes.

Thanks so much for the comments!!

I thought it seemed in character really - like you said at the extreme edge of it and I don't think he's gonna be making a habit of it. The look on Chin's face was brilliant! It was Chin's version of the expression Danny's been giving Steve this whole time! Lol!

Scott acting can be both expressive and subtle at the same time and I really like that about him. That subtle bittersweet look during the wedding was brilliantly played.

I love reading your reviews as we always seem to mention the same things.

Ohh my....the arm porn is very nice!

The handcuffs were great and that scene had me laughing. Steve and the key.....hehehe....he is so bad how can you not love him?! Caught the Daniel remark too....love it when they use each other's full name.

LOL @ Joe with the nails!

Max is such a great character and so glad to see more and more of him on the show. More Max and less Lori would be very nice.

Not enough of the wedding!

So agree! The case was ok but I was hoping for more of the wedding. LOL @ the team doing the bunny hop!

BTW - keep scrolling up to read and of course have to stop at a certain screencap of Steve to keep looking.

It's so easy to make arm porn pics of Steve. Amber loved it, too! Perhaps you need a Christmas arm porn in your 12 days? At least one icon, maybe?

Steve was so bad, and so adorable the way he teased Danny!

Glad you liked the Joe picture! I think that might go up on my tumblr soon, too.

They advertised the wedding so much, then we got like 5 minutes. It was done nicely, but I thought we'd get more. I thought I saw a preview clip from the reception?

Glad you enjoyed this, and thank you so much for the comments!

That sounds like a good idea! I'll have to find the right picture/screencap to use.

They could have skipped a whole lot of things like Captain Fryer for starters. I liked him when he was in IA there he had this intense aura going here it was just laughable he acted like he was on speed or something. I could have smacked him a couple of times ( ... )

Shave Ice and Shrimp Emporium LOL! Great phrasing!

I thought Fryer was totally different this time, too. Like he was trying to be likeable. I didn't get that interrogation scene at all. I was trying figure out if he was "for real" or playing good cop/bad cop with Kono or just didn't take Kono seriously.

I honestly didn't think about the point of the handcuff scene! It made me laugh! We never reallly got an explanation of why they were handcuffed. It sounded like Danny was making up excuses. I wonder if they were trying to imply that Danny and Lori might be a couple? Steve was so jealous! I thought he was going to tear the room apart to find that key.

I want Wo Fat to stay for a long, long time. Like, the entire run of the series! I would love to meet more of Danny's family, too, and the ex-partner should give us a great story on Danny!

Thanks for the comments! LJ wasn't working for me hardly at all last night.
