Hawaii Five-0: Difference between revisions

Line 42:

** The name of Hiro Noshimuri (a season one villain), while not an actual Japanese name, is made of Japanese words; "Noshi" is a type of origami tied to ceremonial envelopes, "Muri" means impossible." Judging from the Google hits, the writers ate him at a restaurant.

** In "I Helu Pu," we learn that Danny knows a few Russian phrases, including "I'm a police officer" and "Your vodka tastes like urine."

* [[Bulletproof Vest]]: The team is ~~VERY~~ consistent about putting these on when shooting is likely.

* [[By-The-Book Cop]]: Danno tries to be this but it's tough when the [[Cowboy Cop]] is the boss and has been given license by the governer to basically do whatever the hell he wants.

* [[Cain and Abel]]: {{spoiler|Danny, a straight cop, is the Abel; his brother, Matt, is a Wall Street fraudster, savings thief, and drug money launderer}}

* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: Doubles as a [[Retcon]]. In "Kalele", August March tells Steve that a "young officer" that was ~~ALSO~~ named McGarrett arrested him 30 years ago. Steve nods and acknowledges that the other McGarrett is his father, the same father who died in the pilot episode. Apparently, this show wants us to forget that Steve's father was named "John" and now wants us to pass him off as "Steve McGarrett Sr.".

** Actually, March says he was arrested by a cop named ~~[[Mc Garrett]]~~ and no first name is mentioned. In fact this August March is NOT the same character as the one from the original since it has been repeatedly established that this is a new Hawaii Five-0 universe. Just think of this August March as a parallel universe character.

* [[The Caper]]: "Heihei"

* [[Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough]]: Inverted with Steve and Danny. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] frequently by Danny when he rants at Steve about the rules of civilised society and how normal people behave.
