I'm not sure I like the story line in which we have Adam, who was a bad guy but gave it up for love to become one of the good guys (and even a member of Five-0), and is now willing to give up his good guy status for love and become one of the bad guys again. This whole story line sounds like it's leading to a way for Ian Anthony Dale to exit the series for a time. Certainly Steve can't justify keeping him on Five-0 with what he has in front of him.

It was an OK episode. I feel like they are grooming Quinn to take over Danny's role. All the lines she spoke tonight sound exactly what Danny would say. Not sure where they are going with the Adam storyline....is he going to quit 5-0 and become a baddy? Also--no mention of Danny tonight and no mention of where he was off to.....

What was Grover thinking of throwing out all that stuff.....probably 3/4 of it should have been donated to the thrift store. Hope his wife stepped in and staged an intervention.

LOL! That was my first thought about Lou throwing everything away. Even if Samantha didn't want her bike, some child could have made good use of it. And the chair that he had Tani toss! They kinda missed the boat on that one. Clearly the writer who thought that up hasn't donated anything or been donated to because that would have been a good sort of PSA, especially during the holiday season.

Most definitely should have been used to promote donation to worthy causes, could have even tied in from the environmental side to keep things out of the landfills. Had flashbacks to Adam and Kono in the shower early in their storyline, would have preferred a different scenario - and definitely didn't need to think about a naked fight for Adam with the kidnappers (rather unnecessary as a clothed fight would have worked as well)!
