Out of nowhere — and almost a year to the day that the episode in question aired — a burning question of sorts from Hawaii Five-0‘s final season has been answered.

Two-thirds of the way through the long-running CBS reboot’s farewell run, there was an episode, titled “I ho‘olulu, ho‘ohulei ‘ia e ka makani” (“There was a lull, and then the wind began to blow about”), in which Danny Williams (played by original cast member Scott Caan) met Leslie (Haunting of Hill House‘s Kate Siegel), “the girl of his dreams,” at a local bar.

Out for a drive afterwards, they were nearly clipped by an oncoming car, and wound up crashing in a ditch when Danny swerved out of the way. With Leslie critically injured and no cell phone signal available, Danny did his best to tend to his passenger’s wounds if not extricate her from her crimped seat. But by the time he was able to successfully flag down a passing truck, Leslie had already died.

And save for a brief follow-up in the next episode, where we saw that Danny was still out of sorts… that was the end of the abrupt, tragic storyline.

On Twitter Friday afternoon, a Five-0 fan named Alicia asked Peter M. Lenkov, who had showrun the series (as well as executive-produced MacGyver and Magnum P.I.), “Was there purpose or hidden reason for making Danny go through that heartbreak and trauma? It still confuses me.”

Lenkov answered, “I thought it was a compelling story. Simple as that. And I knew [Scott Caan] would act the hell out of it.” Which Caan did. Lenkov then concurred with another follower that when it comes to Caan’s Five-0 work over the years, the episode was “one of his best.”

In July 2020, CBS ended its relationship with Lenkov, following an investigation into claims that the prolific producer created a toxic work environment. In a statement, Lenkov responded, “Now is the time to listen and I am listening. It’s difficult to hear that the working environment I ran was not the working environment my colleagues deserved, and for that, I am deeply sorry. I accept responsibility for what I am hearing and am committed to doing the work that is required to do better and be better.”

In the Season 3 opener — titled “Double Jeopardy” and airing this Friday at 9/8c (bookended by the returns of MacGyver and Blue Bloods) — Magnum and Higgins’ (Jay Hernandez and Perdita Weeks) new clients hire them to find a missing brother, who was last seen on the island. The case leads to [Spoiler] being shot (through the proverbial heart?) and another friend being abducted, when a case of revennnnnnge! is revealed during the investigation.

In the sneak peek above, Magnum recruits Five-0‘s Flippa (played by Shawn Garnett) to see if he and his cousin Kamekona can help suss out the source of the fake ID used by a person of interest in their case. But maybe Flippa, in addition to commenting on La Mariana’s COVID-impacted crowd, can also help out Rick (Zachary Knighton) with a problem? Press play above to see what other (shady) service he happily offers.

In addition to Garnett, Magnum P.I.‘s season premiere also features Hawaii Five-0’s Kimee Balmilero, as Dr. Noelani Cunha.

The following contains all the spoilers from Hawaii Five-0‘s series finale, which aired April 3 on CBS.

Just as CBS’ Hawaii Five-0 reboot on Friday night said a parting aloha to the airwaves after 10 seasons, Steve McGarrett said an emotional goodbye to Danny, Adam, Lou, Tani and much of the rest of his ohana.

Picking up where the penultimate hour left off, the series finale saw Danny, fresh off escaping a beatdown at Steve’s house, get carjacked by Daiyu Mei/Mrs. Wo Fat’s henchmen, who then set his poor, poor car ablaze (giving Five-0 a fleeting scare). While Five-0 closed in on their abducted team member’s whereabouts, a beaten and bloodied Danny mustered the wherewithal to hoist his chained-up self to the rafters above and release his restraints. He then got the drop on one captor and put bullets in four total, before taking a bullet himself, just Steve arrived on the scene. After a touch-and-go surgery, McGarrett stayed by his best friend’s bedside, holding his hand, until Danny came to.

When the rest of Five-0 got a bead on Daiyu Mei — after she and her goons raided Doris McGarrett’s empty crypt of the millions Mom left behind for her son — a final shootout took place on and around cargo containers at the docks. At one point, it appeared that Daiyu Mei had possibly crushed her husband’s killer beneath a toppled cargo container, but Steve resurfaced behind her, assault weapon drawn. Unlike Daiyu Mei, Steve showed his adversary mercy and did not put her down on the spot, prompting the widow to liken his principles to those Wo Fat observed of John McGarrett, in a new flashback to a phone conversation the two men had prior to Victor Hesse killing Steve’s dad. In that same flashback, we learned that John had been investigating the possibility that wife Doris had faked her death, and that was the Champ box mystery he hoped his son would one day solve.

One week later, at the beach chairs, a recuperating Danny touts Hawaii’s “beautiful beaches and plenty of sand” to get Steve to stay, to no avail. “What exactly is it that you’re looking for?” asks Danny. “Peace,” says Steve. So, what, Steve is going to now “walk the Earth like the dude from Kung Fu, looking for answers?” “Something like that,” he says. Danny laments that “it feels like my main dude is leaving me,” but McGarrett makes clear, “This isn’t goodbye forever,” and the BFFs hug and exchange ILYs. Then, lest you think you’ve pumped out your final tears, Steve fields goodbyes at the house from Lou (“You saved my life when you met me”), Adam (“Thank you for always seeing the good in me”), Tani, Noelani, Quinn (“Thank you for giving me a family”), Junior (“Hooyah!”) and new friend Lincoln Cole, to whom Steve says: “Do me a favor — hold down the fort for me.” Steve then turns to everyone and says, “Aloha…. A Hui Hou (Until we meet again),” before walking out the door.

Then, in a very final sequence, we Steve boarding a plane to… somewhere… where one last surprise awaits (and is detailed here). CLICK ON OVER TO PAGE 2 for our post mortem Q&A with H50 showrunner Peter M. Lenkov, who clears the air on McGarrett’s departure, the goodbyes we did not get, and much more.

Hawaii Five-0 showrunner Peter M. Lenkov says he often planned out his season finales as if they might need to end the series as well, the TV business being unpredictable as it is. That prudence paid off this time around, as Friday’s Season 10 finale will bring the CBS reboot’s run to a thrilling, highly emotional close.

“I thought we had a chance of maybe going another season — every season, I thought for some reason the show would end — but I think the network just thought it was a good time” to wrap things up, Lenkov shared during an in-depth conversation with TVLine. “There are so many different things that factor into this — economics, everything — and I think they felt it was the right time.”

In total viewers (a preferred measure for “America’s Most Watched Network”), Five-0 ranks fourth among all current CBS dramas in Live+Same Day tallies, and only slightly lower when DVR playback is folded in. In the 18-49 demo, the procedural places seventh. Invited to elaborate on the network’s decision to end the reboot, a CBS rep referred TVLine to the statements issued by network president Kelly Kahl and CBS Television Studios chief David Stapf.

Sunset On The Beach event

When Five-0‘s end was officially announced in late February, that talk was that series lead Alex O’Loughlin — who for years has suggested that the wear-and-tear of fronting the high-octane drama would force him to turn in his proverbial badge — had finally decided enough was enough. Lenkov, however, isn’t so sure that AOL was definitely, irreversibly done.

“I believe Alex wanted this to be his last year,” Lenkov tells TVLine. “He didn’t have a contract… but he didn’t have one last year either, and a deal was made to extend one year at the last minute, right before Upfronts [in May 2019]. If the studio had wanted to bring back the show for Season 11, I have to believe they would have tried to get Alex to stay. But it’s now moot.”

Lenkov likewise questions the presumption that co-star Scott Caan had declared himself dunzo, as Danny Williams, if O’Loughlin was on the way out. “Usually, actors say they’re done when they’re up for contract renegotiations, so I think that he may have said that somewhere around Season 7…?” the EP shrugs. Whatever the case, “I truly believe that a lot of times, those conversations are really there to get the network, the studio, to pony up.”

Regardless of why Five-0 was ending or who would have been around for a hypothetical Season 11, Lenkov had a season finale to finesse into a series ender. Luckily, an ongoing arc — set in motion more than a year ago by Joe White’s death, and exacerbated by Doris’ murder earlier this season — has indicated that “something has changed” for Steve McGarrett. And that to cope with that change, he may need to bid Hawaii, and his Five-0 ohana, adieu. That scenario was very pointedly 
proposed in this season’s penultimate episode, sparking some fans to cry foul on social media. “McGarrett would never bail on his team!!!” and all that jazz.

Hawaii Five-0 Recap: Season 10 Episode 21“It’s amazing to me when somebody says this came out of the blue,” Lenkov marvels. “I’ve been playing [McGarrett’s] post traumatic stress for years, and it plays a naturally as it does as if this were the real world, where it comes in and out in stressful situations.” Lenkov offers as an example the Season 8 arc in which “McDanno” aimed to open a restaurant, which came on the heels of Steve being dangerously exposed the radiation of a bomb in the Season 7 finale. “The restaurant was a distraction, a way for him to look at a possibility of retiring,” he notes. “This is a popcorn show, but I always try to ground everything with a real truth and honesty and motivation. There’s nobody that could do what he does without having problems sleeping at night. And he’s always had that issue.”

Will McGarrett wind up actually putting the Aloha State in his rear view mirror? Did Lenkov tweak things at the last minute so that Steve decided to stay put, knowing Five-0 will always have his six? Or is an altogether different outcome on tap? The final, series-ending sequence has effectively been classified Top Secret, so… no spoilers here.

What Lenkov is willing to reveal is what was important to him to include in this grand finale. For one, there is what he calls “my Pearl Harbor scene,” in which we flash back, via new scenes featuring Mark Dacascos’ Wo Fat and James Marsters’ Victor Hesse, to the planning of the Anton Hesse extraction that was central to the series’ pilot. “That scene has been in my head for 10 years — the planning of that, and the execution of that. It was really important for me to see that scene,” he says. “Now, the guys are 10 years older, so hopefully it plays well!” Lenkov also “wanted to know what was in that Champ box” that John McGarrett, who is also back in new scenes featuring William Sadler, left behind for his son.

All told, Friday’s series finale — which is unsurprisingly titled “Aloha” — “checks every box with regards to what this show has always been about, which is family, which is about a connection between these people,” Lenkov avows. “It’s got big action, it’s got some big surprises and twists, but most of all the thing is really rooted in heart, which has been a big ingredient that has played in this show since the beginning.”

Are you ready to say aloha to H50 on Friday?

RELATED STORIES

This week on Hawaii Five-0, in the CBS series’ penultimate hour, everyone was wondering, “What’s wrong with McGarrett?” And by episode’s end, Danny had the answer.

But first, meet Lincoln Cole!

After Steve accepts hand-delivery of what is later revealed to be a coded letter/cypher from Doris, we cut to a gang of goons pushing a woman and her wee kid into her home. They just robbed a bank, where one of their guys got shot, so they need a place to lay low. Luckily for the lady, the busboy (played by MacGyver alum Lance Gross) from the diner she and her son were just at shows up to return a lost trinket. The busboy gleans that something is amiss, and moments after bidding the woman adieu, he comes barging in through the back, whaling on the assorted robbers. One gets away, though — and the busboy, too, vanishes once the mother turns her back to call the cops.

Having caught this case — because “there’s always another case” — Danny tracks down Steve at his father’s grave. It’s been almost 10 years since the elder McGarrett died, while Steve himself has been through quite a tough year, with Joe, Doris and all. Producing the cypher, Steve grumbles, “Last thing I need right now is another mystery.” So they report to the scene of the skirmish with the robbers, getting the download from Tani and Quinn on the remarkably skilled busboy who saved the woman and child. Back at HQ, Five-0 realizes that said busboy was living under an assumed identity. It’s only when Adam scouts out the guy’s mailing address and finds a toothbrush/DNA that they learn who he actually is: Lincoln Cole, a Marine gunnery sergeant with the FAST (anti-terrorist) team. And, most curiously, one who went AWOL after being bestowed with a Purple Heart following a big mission.

Hawaii Five-0 Lincoln ColeSteve and Junior pay a visit to Sergeant Major Phillips (aka blink-and-you-missed-him guest star Chuck Norris), who they know Cole had called earlier in the day. Phillips plays dumb, but Junior marches right past into his home, where he spies Cole escaping out the back. A chase ensues, during which Cole and McGarrett trade blows, strikes, kicks, what have you. Junior breaks things up with a gunshot, after which Cole gets hauled into the rendition room at HQ.

Cole stays mum, but Steve eventually gets through to him a bit, recognizing the guilt he probably feels for having lost men during the mission that branded him a hero. Cole confesses that he feels terrible guilt, having let his zeal for a big “win” lure his squad into an obvious ambush.

When masked men force a ransom video onto the TV airwaves, demanding Cole in trade for the now-kidnapped woman and child from before, McDanno debate using Cole to flush out the baddies. Steve calls the kidnapper, Hector, to report that they have Cole in custody but are about to turn him over to the MPs/prison. That’s not good enough, for Hector, though. MPs do in fact show up to claim Cole, and Steve turns him over. Cole, though, somehow escapes the transport and makes a beeline for the meet-up. There, he ensures the woman and child’s safety before turning himself over to Hector, who then promptly puts a gun to Cole’s head… before getting zinged by Junior’s sniper rifle. With all of Five-0 emerging from the nearby brush, a shootout ensues, and eventually every baddie is taken down. ”I think this guy might be crazier than you,” Danny says to Steve of Cole’s own capacity for derring-do.

Afterward at HQ, Steve informs Cole that he is free to go — that the MPs are busy with the formal review, plus no one is in a hurry to bring charges against the war hero who just saved a woman and child. Cole in turn offers to call in a favor to help Steve decode the cypher on his desk. Danny then calls, and summons Steve for a tete a tete at their beach chairs. Steve at first tries to deflect, but Danny wants to have a serious conversation about what is affecting his longtime partner.

“Something changed…,” Steve admits, adding that he came to realize that for 10 years he has been “protecting everybody except myself.” Danny suggests he simply take a break, but Steve counters, “It’s more than that.” He at one point thought the restaurant (hey, remember that storyline?) would offer “balance,” so when it stalled, he got to thinking about other ways to have a normal life.

“Do you think you’re capable of being done?” asks Danny. “Maybe,” says Steve. With Five-0, he says, “I hit the ground running, and have been running ever since,” and now he is considering “time away to get perspective.” Danny suggests that New Jersey would be a fine place to gain such perspective! Steve at first defers, “It’d be full of people like you!” And yet… now he feels almost challenged to indeed get away to the Garden State.

Danny heads into the house to fetch more beers — only to find a masked man rifling through Steve’s office. A fight breaks out, a gunshot goes off, Steve races into the house, but the burglar has escaped, and Danny is merely a bit banged up. The thief was after the cypher, Steve surmises, but unwittingly made off with just the empty envelope it came in.

To be continued, during the April 3 series finale.

What did you think  of “Part 1” of H50‘s series finale? Would you have welcomed Lincoln Cole as a new team member/leader, if there had been a  Season 11?

CBS has released an emotional, reflective promo for Hawaii Five-0‘s series finale, featuring faces both old and newer, as the series readies to bid the airwaves aloha.

In the series finale airing Friday, April 3 at 9/8c, one team member (revealed here) is abducted and badly wounded by Wo Fat’s wife, who is after a cypher that Steve’s mother left him. Also, McGarrett finally solves the case his father left for him 10 years ago.

Recurring Five-0 cast members James Marsters (as Victor Hesse), William Sadler (as John McGarrett) and Mark Dacascos (as Wo Fat) all return for that grand finale.

As cast member Katrina Law recently told TVLine, “There are going to be a lot of tears shed, for many reasons” as the reboot comes to an end. “I know the fans are sad to see this iconic show going and having this be the final season….  But then on a personal level, we have this beautiful ending scene in which [showrunner] Peter Lenkov and the writers really gave the actors freedom to kind of say what they want and just left it open.

“Besides the tears, it is so action-packed and just chock full of fun,” she added. “So, before you get to those tears, you’re going to go for a very emotional, action-packed ride.”

The sun is setting on Hawaii Five-0. The CBS procedural’s current 10th season will be its last, TVLine has learned. A two-hour series finale will air Friday, April 3 at 8/7c.

“It’s never easy to say goodbye to a hit franchise that carried on the legacy of the original with such distinction, while establishing its own signature style,” said Kelly Kahl, President of CBS Entertainment, in a statement. “From episode one, Hawaii Five-0 has been a huge success for us. Thanks to the amazing talents of the producers, writers, cast and crew, it has played a key role for a decade on our schedule and helped establish our powerhouse Friday night. We cannot be prouder of its quality and longevity and are thankful for the passionate fan devotion it inspired.”

Adds executive producer Peter M. Lenkov, “Hawaii Five-0 has been such a blessing to me and all of the people who have worked on this incredible show. I truly learned the meaning of ‘ohana’ as the viewers embraced us and the people of Hawaii welcomed us with the privilege to film on their shores. I am forever indebted to the creative genius that was Leonard Freeman who gave us such a beautiful story to begin with. And my eternal gratitude to our cast, led by our hero Alex O’Loughlin, the writers, the production team, our CBS ohana, and most importantly YOU, the fans, who allowed us to come to work with pride and made our series such a success. Mahalo.”

“This show has been pretty much every waking moment for the last 10 years of my life,” said star Alex O’Loughlin. “Everywhere I go on this planet, in every language, I am McGarrett to all these people. What we’ve done, what we’ve accomplished, it’s extraordinary. I can’t really put words to express my level of gratitude. I’m just glad to have been a part of this, a part of history, and I’m going to miss it. And to the fans, I don’t know how to thank you guys. Thank you for following us the way you have. I’m going to miss you. Aloha.”

H50 this season is averaging just north of 7 million total viewers (in Live+Same Day numbers), ranking fourth among CBS dramas (behind NCIS, FBI and Friday titan Blue Bloods). Its 0.7 demo rating meanwhile trails those same three dramas plus the recently ended Criminal Minds.

MacGyver alum Lance Gross is returning to the Lenkoverse with a potential series regular role on Hawaii Five-0.

Per our sister site Deadline, Gross will appear in back-to-back April episodes of the CBS drama as Lincoln Cole, a decorated former Marine Gunnery Sergeant with the Fleet Anti-terrorism Security Team (which I really hope goes by the cool acronym F.A.S.T.). When Cole finds himself potentially in harm’s way, Five-0 is brought in to protect him.

Should Five-0 get picked up for Season 11, Gross could continue on as a series regular, joining Alex O’Loughlin, Scott Caan, Meaghan Rath, Chi McBride, Beulah Koale, Ian Anthony Dale, Katrina Law and others.

In addition to his arc as MacGyver bounty hunter Billy Clayton, Gross’ previous TV credits include the role of House of Payne‘s Calvin, the heroic lead in NBC’s Crisis, Sleepy Hollow and, most recently, Star, where he has played Maurice Jetter.

Five-0 airs Fridays at 9/8c, on CBS.

CBS’ two island dramas officially and fully merged this Friday, as unfinished business involving Wo Fat’s widow found (most of) the Hawaii Five-0 team working with Magnum P.I.‘s Thomas, Juliet, Rick and T.C.

As the two casts converged in the hunt for a valuable NOC list of CIA agents, much banter was to be had between the assorted personalities. Here — and especially since TVLine’s Quotes of the Week column is still on holiday — are the best sound bites from at least the first half of the two-hour crossover, during which the most major characters got to mix and mingle:

“What exactly are you investigating?”

“I’m so sorry but I’m not sure that we’re going to be inclined to indulge this rather brisk line of questioning.”

“Oh, you’re very English.”

Quinn (played by Katrina Law) learns what Higgins (Perdita Weeks) is all about

“Oh, let me guess — you have a rendition room in your basement where you’ll leverage us until we cooperate.”

“Hold on, I like this woman.”

Has McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) found his perfect match in Higgins?

H50 Magnum Crossover“These fancy computers can’t compete with strong intuition.”

“He’s just trying to impress you. Every opportunity he gets, he asks me to reach for my laptop in search of a break.”

Magnum (Jay Hernandez) shrugs off Five-0’s fancy toys — but Higgins knows better 

“There a problem?”

“Other than the fact that I’m in a passenger in my own car, no.”

“I like to drive, it’s kind my thing.”

“Well, this car is kind of my thing — being that it… belongs to me.”

“I like to drive, that’s all.”

“I’m sure your partner loves that.”

“He’s fine with it.”

“I have a sneaking suspicion he’s not.”

Magnum hasn’t even met McGarrett’s MIA partner, and he knows him already

“A guy with your skill sets should consider law enforcement.”

“I’m more of an improvise-as-you-go, not-necessarily-by-the-book rule follower.”

“[Steve shrugs] It’s never stopped me.”

McGarrett fails to recruit Magnum 

“Gimme the envelope know, or I shoot your chatty friend!”

“Him? He’s not my friend. I barely know this guy, I met this guy today.”

A goon puts the squeeze on Steve, by threatening Magnum.

Afterwards, Magnum has to ask:

“What kind of SEAL are you? You were happy to let that go shoot me. So much for ‘No Man Left Behind.’”

“So, you got to drive a Ferrari! How was it?”

“Dude, we just got held up at gunpoint, that’s your first question for me? [Whispers] It was amazing.”

“Tell me about it later.”

“I will.”

But will Steve mention to Lou the $ 1,600 in shot-out tires?

Of course, sometimes a sheepish eye roll is worth 1,000 words, after Higgins catches Tani flirting with Junior:

“Am I the only one here that doesn’t speak Chinese?!”

Magnum feels left out after Quinn, Higgins and McGarrett show off their fluency

“Spill the tea!”

“‘Spill the tea’? Is that because I’m British…?”

Tani (Meaghan Rath) pumps Higgins for cloak-and-dagger gossip. At episode’s end, though, Higgins delivered the most memorable bit of dialogue, telling her new gal pal:

“If you find someone at work who brings a bit of light into your life, someone who makes you happy, you should pursue it.”

The following contains spoilers from Friday night’s Season 10 premiere of CBS’ Hawaii Five-0.

Hawaii Five-0‘s Kamekona might want to offer up a 10 percent discount on all menu items (beer and wine excluded!), seeing as the “Welcome back” party for Jerry doubled as a going-away party for longtime cast member Jorge Garcia, who is dropping to recurring status on the CBS drama.

An alum of such series as Lost (which also filmed in Hawaii) and Alcatraz, Garcia made his Five-0 debut in early Season 4, when conspiracy theorist Jerry Ortega was introduced as an old high school classmate of Chin Ho Kelly’s. When Five-0 was renewed for its sixth season, Garcia was in turn promoted to series regular status. Toward the end of Season 7, after helping the team escape a deadly jam, the ever-resourceful Jerry got his badge from Steve and became an official member of the task force.

But as revealed in the season premiere’s penultimate scene, though Jerry has recuperated from being shot by Azra Hassan, he has chosen to step away from the task force and live his life a bit differently — starting with the writing of a book that connects the United States Federal Reserve to the sinking of the Titanic.

“I’m grateful for my time on Hawaii Five-0,” Garcia shared in an exclusive statement to TVLine. “I loved getting to return to the islands, and creating a character that connected with so many people. Playing Jerry was a blast, and I look forward to popping in again to play with my TV ohana.”

Showrunner Peter M. Lenkov in turn said, “Jorge was a breath of fresh air from the very moment he joined the cast, and fans immediately took to Jerry’s quirkiness as well as his kindness. There will always be a place for Jorge and Jerry on Hawaii Five-0, and while we obviously wish Jorge the very best, we will sincerely miss him very much.”

Hawaii Five-0 Season 10 airs Fridays at 8/7c.
