Pure TV action drama! We have super bad guys bombs, guns and a covert operation. No! This is not the Expendables, it's Five-0. One of the team gets a bomb attached to his neck, and the ex-seal Mc G goes with a covert operation to get the ransom money. The team robs the evidence lab. Well acted, and directed with the above mentioned script makes for an excellent show! Far from real life, but entertaining. I hope the series can keep up such a fast pace. I give Hana a a Makehewa an 8 out of 10. I love the contrast of the two lead male characters. I think they compliment each other. Scott Caan has really come into his own in his role. I wasn't too sure about him at first but he seems to be more and more comfortable in his character.

Chin Fighting for His Life

Warning: Spoilers
With a bomb on his collar. And how that HPD dislike him for a better word in stealing money from evidence locker.
What was suppose to be in the $28M that $200K was stolen we later learn due to his aunt needing an organ transplant taken the fall for his estranged uncle.
Steve is a SEAL and at times wished he would had gone back to the police academy there before earning the job as Five 0 leader.
We see a fight against the man who killed his father John. Showing that the team is getting more and more closer there as teammates and family.
Really wished Danny would had told Steve off about not driving his car all the time. They needed to really be equals.
