Surgery May Be Dangerous to Your Health ***

While Danny moves into Steve's place and the two just can't seem eye to eye, they're called on a case where a dead man had recently undergone plastic surgery.

As in all cases, we have the obvious suspects with car thieves and others in pursuit of the victim coming under the radar of 5-0.

Naturally, there is the girlfriend who got her last message from the victim telling her that he'd be back soon. Of course, he never came back.

The ending will surprise you but I have to confess that I realized who the killer was because I know that the obvious is not always true on so many of the shows.
