Hawaii Five-O: 'Heihei' Season 1 Episode 10 Recap (spoilers)
by Jenny
In episode 10 of Hawaii Five-0, it begins with an armored truck getting fired on by four "painters". When the money is left in the truck, the Hawaii Five-0 is sent out to get to the bottom of things and figure out why these murderers/kidnappers/robbers left the very thing most people in that situation would be after.
This is a strange case and they figure out things from interviewing the other "painters" who were just hired on craigslist to stand in and pretend to be painters on the job during the truck take-over. This leads to a doctor's office and the use of steroids.
The interesting part is when they realize they're looking for marathon runners. These are people who have the energy and speed to get away with all the crazy things going on around town and for other heists which have occurred in the past during races like the one coming up the following day.
Steve and Danny drive around looking for a house where the suspects might be. It's right next door to his ex-wife. She comes into play by letting the guys use the house for surveillance. Steve likes her and doesn't get why Danny complains that she was a pain. It's comedy for a moment then back to the serious stuff of catching bad guys.
The marathon racers trying to steal mega millions are caught and brought to justice.
In the end it brings on a soft moment between Danny and his ex. They share a sweet moment where she actually bends her own rules and allows Danny to have something he'd wanted with his daughter, more time. You can see the walls breaking down between them.
