Last night on Hawaii Five-0, some kids got kidnapped, again. And…not to spoil the ending, but some asshole dad doesn’t trust McG to save the day. Guys, learn from others’ mistakes!! Trust McG. He never loses. He’s like that asshole friend we all had that was just all around better than us.
So, ok…the episode kicks off with the gov’nah giving one of the most shitty speeches of all time honoring H50 for some huge drug bust. Meanwhile, we’re treated to footage of a bunch of kids on a bus. So you know this isn’t going to go well. Turns out people get pretty pissed when nearly 100 mil in Coke is confiscated. I mean, imagine how many kids won’t get type II diabetes for another couple of years because of this! Anyways, as the gov’nah is doing his best GW Bush impersonation, the bus comes across a car wreck, except not really…it’s staged, and the “victims” are not such good people. They shoot the bus driver and take the bus full of kids.
Oh, right, Locke gets discharged from the Marines. So now that he’s doing his own thing, he decides his own thing is going to be hunting Wo Fat. H50 gets the call about the kids, and jump on the case right away. One of the parents comes in and gets all uppity about everything, and Taylor has to talk him down. However, he does his own thing, as would be expected, and as such isn’t around to answer some pretty fucking important questions.
They lean pretty heavily on some guy they busted in their drug bust and get some info from him, which leads them to the bus, but not to the kids. The kidnappers demand all the coke back, and have McG drop it in a van. He does so, and gets lucky that they bad guys misunderestimated his wicked speed, because the van blows up but he’s already pretty far away. Except, turns out the guy they were leaning on…he was actually the head of the cartel, and used the kidnapping to destroy the evidence of the drug smuggling that they were holding him on. Sigh.
Anyways, I’ll spoil you the boring details of how the episode ends, because I wanna keep you coming back for more and all.
If you like it, spread it!:

Well darn it; this is one time I wish we could spoil the “no spoiler” rule. Would you believe, I paused the DVR for a few minutes, restarted it, the darned thing hiccuped and then took me to live TV? I lost the last 15 minutes!!! Oh well, I’ll wait. Thanks for covering it for us.
Oh yeah, they repeated the episode last week when the college kids were kidnapped on the boat (Nick Lachey!), so seeing another “kid”napping storyline basically felt like deja vu.
This episode finalized my decision to ad McG to the list of people I would go with without a question if they ever showed up at my doorstep saying “Come with me if you want to live.” He may have even replaced John McClain…
