Quotes
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : Danno, hold it. I want to book this one! I think Chin would have liked that.
[the last line of the show]
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : [McGarrett has been questioning Rego] Don't you ever call me "cop"!... The name's McGarrett, and my title is Mister!
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : One day, I'll get you Pahoa... And your friends in high places.
-
Cappy Pahoa : [McGarrett is leaving] Perhaps one day, we'll meet again.
Det. Steve McGarrett : Meet is not what I had in mind.
-
Cappy Pahoa : I have friends in high places.
Det. Steve McGarrett : [Raps his hand on Pahoa's desk] And so do I!

[In the next scene after the death of Chin Ho Kelly, Steve is staring out the window with the shades closed. There's a knock on the door]
Det. Steve McGarrett : [solemn] Come in.
[Danno and Duke Lukela walk inside Steve's office]
Det. Steve McGarrett : I've just phoned Chin's daughter in San Francisco. She'll be here for the funeral.
Dan Williams : How did Suzy take it?
Det. Steve McGarrett : How would any daughter take it, Danno, and yet, to tell her that her old man's just been murdered? It broke her heart. I shouldn't have let him go undercover. He was too well known.
Duke : Steve... don't blame yourself. Chin wanted the job.
Dan Williams : He was the only one who could get any cooperation with the Chinese community.
Duke : The tip about the new protection racket came from one of Chin's snitches.
Det. Steve McGarrett : [sadly] Yeah.
[sighs]
Det. Steve McGarrett : I should've had a back-up on it at all times.
Dan Williams : It wouldn't have worked, Steve. You know how suspicious those Chinese merchants are? One man... alone... had a chance.
Det. Steve McGarrett : Did he, Danno?
[voice breaks whilst furious]
Det. Steve McGarrett : So help me God... I will not rest... until I get the man who killed him.
[Steve sobs in tears]
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : [Chin is undercover, and Steve is worried] Chin, for God's sake be careful.
Chin Ho : I can handle it.
-
Jimmy Rego : Why don't we settle this just between us?
Det. Steve McGarrett : Oh... Don't Tempt Me!
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : [Cappy is turning Jimmy over to McGarrett] Oh, now you're the concerned citizen?
Cappy Pahoa : Let's just say we're doing each other a favor.
-
Det. Steve McGarrett : [McGarrett is visiting Pahoa in jail] I want Rego, Pahoa... I want him!
Cappy Pahoa : He's not mine to give.
