Quotes

Steve McGarrett : Yeah, I love cats. Who doesn't love cats? They're awesome. They're like little adorable ninjas. They're smart. They're fast. And they're cute and cuddly at the same time.
-
Steve McGarrett : Tell her you need another 24 hours to get the money.
Barry Burns : I already stalled her once. If I don't give her the money, she'll shoot me in the face!
Steve McGarrett : That's a risk we're willing to take.

Danny 'Danno' Williams : [Draws his gun as a cat runs by out of nowhere] Whoa!
Steve McGarrett : Hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa. What are you- what is the matter with you?
Danny 'Danno' Williams : What's the matter with me? The thing jumped out of nowhere. I got scared. What do you want?
Steve McGarrett : What do I want you to do? Maybe react like a grown man. How 'bout that? It's a cat.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Okay. Lemme explain something to you that you do not know.
[Points at himself]
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I don't like-
[Looks down, realizes he is pointing his own gun at his chest and holsters his weapon]
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I don't like cats.

Danny 'Danno' Williams : [Walks to the window that has a view of their female suspect] We got a situation here.
Steve McGarrett : [Follows Danny] What do we got?
Danny 'Danno' Williams : [Their female suspect is stripping down to her underwear. They start talking over each other] I mean this...? What do we do? I mean, I don't- What's the protocol here? Do we watch? Do we not watch?
Steve McGarrett : [In a very reasonable tone] That's what we're here for. We gotta watch.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : It's our job as far as I'm concerned...
Steve McGarrett : I mean, I don't- It's not like...
Danny 'Danno' Williams : [She pulls the curtains closed and they suddenly stop talking, sighing in disappointment] Lost visual.

Danny 'Danno' Williams : You called a drug dealer to find Mr. Pickles?
Steve McGarrett : And why did I have to do that, Danny?
Danny 'Danno' Williams : No, no, no. Don't do this, okay? It's not my fault. It's your fault.
Steve McGarrett : How is this *my* fault, Mr. Pickles got out? You're the reason. You left the window open.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Well, I wouldn't have had to leave the window open if you hadn't decided it was a good idea to make a microwave omelet!
Steve McGarrett : You know what? This whole passive aggressive thing? I'm done. I'm tired. It's tiring.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Alright, let's do *aggressive* aggressive! You want that?

Steve McGarrett : [Danny just gave him a guitar] Hey, man, thank you.
[as Danny walks around his car to the passenger side]
Steve McGarrett : Oh, listen, by the way.
[Steve tosses the keys to Danny]
Steve McGarrett : Why don't you drive?
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I drive. Wow. Definitely a break through, Steven.
Steve McGarrett : Don't get too excited, alright. I'm still controlling the radio.
[They get in, and Steve tunes the radio to classic rock. The Boys Are Back in Town starts playing as they drive away]
-
Danny 'Danno' Williams : [In an apartment on a stakeout] It smells in here. It's like, uh, loneliness... and despair.
Steve McGarrett : It's moth balls.
-
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I fell asleep. I miss anything?
[Steve leans over to their equipment and turns it up so they hear sounds of the two women making love]
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Apparently not.
Steve McGarrett : They stopped for a water break about a half an hour ago.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : That's good. You gotta stay hydrated.
Steve McGarrett : Very important.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : [They see the women's shadows through the curtains next door] See this... this is bad for us men in general. This is what gives us a bad name. Twenty, thirty minutes. That includes a drink. Takes us three hours.
Steve McGarrett : Impossible.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : They make us look terrible.
Steve McGarrett : It's impossible.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : We can't do this.
-
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I have seen you personally put yourself in every conceivable life-threatening situation without batting an eye. Like it's nothing. But, when it comes to talking about your feelings, forget about it. You'd rather choose cyanide.
[Steve looks away]
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Huh? Forget it. Wake me up if they stop, or do something interesting... open up that curtain.
Steve McGarrett : [after a long pause] You wanna know why I don't play guitar anymore?
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Yes. I would like to know why you don't play guitar anymore.
Steve McGarrett : [Another pause] Tenth grade talent show. I signed up to perform. I practiced this song every day for months and months, and the day finally came around. I was standing in the wings. My guitar was in tune. They called me my name. I walked out on stage... and turned around and looked at all those people... And I couldn't do it... I couldn't do it, so I walked off and I never played the guitar again.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : That's it?
Steve McGarrett : That's it.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : Tenth grade. You had stage fright. So, you never played the guitar again?
Steve McGarrett : I didn't have stage fright. It was bigger than that. I'm tellin' you, man, it was a, uh... I don't know. I guess it was an existential crisis. I just, in that moment, I couldn't handle... the, the vulnerability that I was experiencing. I couldn't handle how *exposed*... I felt. I felt like I couldn't breathe, and I thought it was gonna kill me. Look, man. I was raised differently than you, okay? I wasn't raised in a house with a supportive family, encouraging me to share my feelings. And, in your case, every feeling. The McGarrett men are a different breed. They- To them, showing emotions is showing weakness. You know? I mean, it's stupid, but it's just the way it is.
Danny 'Danno' Williams : I understand that. I just figured after everything we've been through... you know... your father, my brother. Everything. I figured maybe I was, you know... somebody that you could open up to, is all.
Steve McGarrett : I just did.

Steve McGarrett : I gotta go, guys. I got somethin' with Danny I gotta take care of.
Lou Grover : You late for an argument? Oh, the marriage counselor! How's that goin'?
Kono Kalakaua : Yeah, you rekindling your romance?
