Aloha Ke Kahi I Ke Kahi

The episode starts out sensibly enough, with Steve meeting Wo Fat in prison. However, it very quickly descends into chaos as, following an armed assault on Fat's cell, the palace is besieged by revolutionaries. Here, it gets tense, the air electrified with the threat posed by these complex crims. Cho Min is suitably cool, infiltrating the situation and trying, quietly to diffuse it. However, in the second half of the episode, it gets downright farcical, with Steve and Danno committing a huge number of crimes that would see any other cop court-martialed.

He drives recklessly, speeding through Honolulu, and, when given a ransom for a loved one, he hijacks an armoured car, assaulting Grover and releasing prisoners. But then, this is a show where cops shoot down and kill more criminals than they capture. Although, you have to question the sanity of the Hawaii Five-O when its founder throws a man out of a helicopter and then tries to land it. You're not Bond, McGarrett.
