Original subtitles

The dead CIA agent was looking for an international assassin known only as

Raymond. There are 19 male Caucasians on the tour.

What we need is a plant.

What is Officer Wells doing these days?

You're on United States soil now, Excellency, and you're in my

jurisdiction. I arrange for my own security.

I'll decide what safeguards are appropriate for you and your company.

Ladies and gentlemen, please remain seated until the aircraft has come to a

complete stop.

On behalf of Captain J. William Hayes and all the crew, thank you for flying

with us and welcome to Hawaii.

Okay, can I have your attention, please? My group, please.

Aloha!

Aloha! All right, you practically sound like natives already.

Okay, a couple of quick announcements.

First, there'll be a special bus waiting for us right outside the terminal.

We'll go directly to the hotel for a couple of complimentary Mai Tais. Then

you're on your own until 2 o'clock. You can swim, rest, whatever.

But please, I must remind you now, we must all be in the hotel lobby at 8 o

'clock tomorrow morning so that we can transfer back to the airport and begin

our Outer Island tour. Okay? Any questions?

Mr. Jurgay. Mr. Young. Yes, could you tell me where I can buy a grass skirt

with a lady in it?

It's terrible, isn't it?

He's just having a good time.

Is this your first trip to the islands, Mr.

Houston? Uh-huh, yes, it is. Mine, too.

My name's Hazel. All my girlfriends call me Hazel, not because I do some crazy

things like deciding to come on this tour all by myself.

I'm a widow.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Which one's your wife?

I'm not married.

Really?

Aloha. Goodbye.

Sir?

Sir?

Sir?

HPD call. There was a dead man aboard the morning flight from Seattle. He was

stabbed with some kind of surgical instrument.

That's a routine job for HPD homicide dental. They thought it was until they

checked the victim's ID.

It was an agent, CIA, and on active assignment.

Doing what?

That's another problem. They can't find out. Their Washington sources either

don't or won't say.

Here we go again.

Taxi.

Oh, for heaven's sakes. I'm sorry. I thought this taxi was vacant. Oh, no,

that's all right. You were here first. I'll just take the next one. No, no, no,

no. You were first by a fraction. Oh, no, I'm sure I wasn't. I'll just take

the next one. Oh, come on. I won't hear of it.

No, really. It's no trouble at all.

How about letting me decide, okay?

Okay. Okay.

Where do you want to go, lady?

Ala Moana.

You're never going to believe this.

Ala Moana.

Must be fake.

Well, can't fight fake.

Ala Moana, James.

Oh, Robert Houston.

Julia Lewis.

Hi.

Oh, this weather is beautiful, isn't it?

Mm-hmm.

It isn't.

This is my first trip to the islands.

I'm from Oregon.

Portland, Oregon?

Hardware dealer.

Came out with a tour.

We're staying over at the Seabreeze.

Oh, I understand. That's a very nice hotel.

Can't compare to the Illiki, but it's all right.

That's where you're staying, isn't it? The Illiki?

I work there.

Manager. Mm-mm.

Not quite.

I handle public relations.

Suppose I'd like it at your hotel?

I'm sure you would.

Everyone does.

Maybe I should change my reservation.

Well, for one thing, we're booked solid.

Of course, you'd have a whole floor to choose from in two weeks.

Two weeks?

What happens in two weeks?

Hey, come on.

What's the big mystery?

There's no mystery.

Or maybe there is.

Some very important people are due in on the 11th.

The 11th?

That's a week away.

Couldn't I have one of those rooms till then? They want them held.

They're very security conscious.

I bet they booked the best rooms in the house. We're not supposed to talk about

it.

So, you're from Portland.

I asked the stewardess to wait. I knew you'd want to ask her some questions.

Jean, this is Mr. McGarrett and Mr. Williams from 5-0.

Miss Corey was the one who discovered the body.

Could you tell us where the man was seated?

Yes, sir.

The last seat by the window on the right-hand side.

Was he seated alone?

Most of the time, yes.

What do you mean, most of the time?

Well on a long flight people are always moving around Trying to get a better

view walking up and down the aisles. You know what you're saying is that a

Anybody could have killed him at any time.

I Guess so How many people would that amount to?

There were nearly 300 on board.

I see.

All right. Thank you. I appreciate I Know I know it's a big order, but I want

them all checked out. I get the names and addresses from the passenger list

And get the lab boys out here. Right.

Thank you.

Did you look?

No. I said I wouldn't. All right. What's your favorite flower?

This is ridiculous.

Come on.

What if I said the African flycatcher? No, you have to be serious.

We agreed on everything else so far, but we agree on this.

Um... Come on.

I guess I would have to say... Plumeria.

I don't believe it.

I really don't believe it.

Thank you.

Come on.

Let's see.

What else?

For one thing, I'm crazy about opera.

How about you?

Crazy about it.

Cannot stand carrots. Oh, God.

Oh, it's almost 3 o'clock. My boss will think I quit.

I've got to find a taxi.

Julia, please.

I'll be gone in the morning.

Can't you stay a little while longer?

Please, Julia.

Please.

I must be going out of my mind.

Absolutely crackers.

Well, after that, I bought my partners out and went into business for myself.

Too noisy for you?

Well, I always thought that birds sang.

That looks quieter.

Better? Mm-hmm.

Oh, look.

They're wilting.

So?

We'll buy more.

It won't be the same.

You know, I was never so surprised in my whole life.

You know, Julia?

I tell you, there's absolutely nothing you and I disagree on.

Except mystery.

Except... Oh, Lord.

We're back to the hotel VIP again, right?

Well, it's that I just can't understand.

Well, I don't see why you have to understand.

Julia, I think at this point it's a matter of trust.

If you can't trust... Trust!

All right, I can't trust you, and I don't want to hear another word about

it.

After all, we've been told over and over again not to discuss it with people.

We were warned against talking to strangers.

And that's really what you are, isn't it?

A stranger.

I'm sorry. I have to go now.

Julia. Let go of me. Let go of me. Let go!

284 passengers, 29 were locals.

HPD's got nothing on any of them more serious than traffic citations.

There was a tour group aboard.

Sunrise Tours. 40 men and women from Oregon and Washington.

They're staying at the Seabreeze.

Is Dino over there now?

Yeah, since early morning. Good.

Any luck, Duke?

Some. Answers to our mainland police inquiries are starting to come in. How

many? Roughly about 40.

Anyone with a handle?

Just one passenger with a major felony record.

Vaughn William.

Did three years for armed robbery.

Indicted for two counts of extortion.

Released because of lack of evidence.

Somebody dummied up, huh? Right.

Well, he's in the right league, Duke.

I'd like to know more about this character.

Get a warrant, pick him up on suspicion.

McGarrett. Jonathan Kaye, sir. Yes. Put him on, please.

Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner, Steve.

There's been a lot of static here over the murder.

Virtual news blackout at CIA.

Why?

Evidently, our agent was on a very delicate assignment. He was after a man

named Raymond.

Raymond? Is that a first name or last?

They have no idea. Just Raymond, international assassin.

He's a freelancer, available to the highest bidder. I use the word highest

advisedly.

I'm told that he'll kill a head of state for a million dollars.

And he's on his way to Honolulu?

Well, the word I got is that he was hired to do a job over there within the

next month.

Jonathan, my hands are tied unless I know who the potential victim is.

Well, I understand that, and I'm trying to find out.

And I'll need every bit of information you have on this Raymond character.

You've already got it, Steve.

You mean he has no M.O.? You have any description?

Nothing. No photos, no fingerprints.

He's supposed to be... Caucasian, if that helps.

Well, that's a big help. Only 60% to 70% of the islands are Caucasian.

I wish I could have been more definite.

You've got a tough job cut out for you.

Oh, I don't know. All we have to do is protect an unknown VIP from murder while

we're looking for a hired assassin nobody can describe.

That's about it.

Good luck.

Well, thank you, Jonathan. Thank you.

Is that all?

That's all, Mr. Young. Thank you very much.

You can call me Chuck.

You can call me anything you want.

Don't call me late for supper.

Thank you.

Next.

How do you do?

This is Ms. Hazel Parr. Ms.

Uh-huh. Sit down, Ms. Parr.

Now, I realize you probably have no personal knowledge of the murder. Oh,

but I do.

You do?

I saw it happen.

Of course, I didn't understand what I'd seen until I thought it over.

What did you see?

Well, it was just before lunch. I turned around to ask the stewardess a question,

and I noticed a man bending over the victim.

Can you describe him?

I certainly can.

It was either the pilot or the co-pilot. He was in uniform.

You say this was right before lunch?

Yeah, it was about 15 minutes before, yeah.

Well, Ms. Parr, how do you suppose a stewardess could serve the man lunch

without noticing he was dead?

Well, maybe she thought he was asleep.

Or maybe... Don't you remember, Hazel? We both talked to the man after lunch.

We were trying to get up a bridge game. It was after lunch. Are you sure?

I believe it was.

Excuse me.

Officer Williams, we're all a little tired.

I wonder if we may be allowed to go now. Our group has tickets for a Polynesian

festival tonight.

Okay. I'll come back in the morning.

I'm afraid we won't be here. We're leaving at 8.

You're leaving?

I'm sorry, but all the arrangements have been made.

Unless you want to hold 40 mad tourists as material witnesses.

I want you to notify me if any of them try to leave the tour.

Subject was a well-nourished Caucasian male, 35 to 40 years of age.

The wound was made with a long, thin instrument. It entered the body just

below the breastbone and traveled directly into the heart. No ribs to

deflect it. How long would it have taken for him to die?

The killer apparently has the touch and skill of a surgeon.

Death was probably instantaneous.

which could explain why no one heard an outcry.

Right.

Another customer for you, Dr. Bergman.

Female, about 30. Some kids found over Paradise Park.

She was stabbed in the upper abdomen.

Puncture wound.

Looks like it might have been made by an ice pick.

Let's take a look.

Any identification?

Yes, sir. A driver's license in the name of Julia Louise Lewis, Ilikay Hotel.

We contacted the manager there, and he said she was his public relations

director.

What about it, though?

No question about it, Steve.

It looks like the same type of weapon caused both deaths.

Back already, Dano?

That's pretty fast work for 40 interviews.

You settled for 20 interviews, Steve?

What happened?

The group has tickets for a Polynesian festival this evening, and they're

leaving at 8 in the morning for the Outer Islands.

Until when?

The 11th.

I talked to Washington.

The dead CIA agent was looking for an international assassin known only as

Raymond. He was probably after someone here in Oahu.

Looks like he killed again this afternoon a local woman named Julia

Lewis. All we know is that Raymond is a Caucasian.

There are 19 male Caucasians on the tour.

Well, there's no way we can lose track of 19 prime suspects for a week now.

Want me to go along?

No, I don't think so.

The interview is a loan on after turning up Raymond, if he's on that tour.

Now, what we need is a plant.

Someone... Someone like, uh... What is Officer Wells doing these days?

HPD juvenile bureau.

Think she can handle it?

She sure loves to talk.

Undercover?

Yes, sir, I would be interested.

I'd consider it a challenge.

You know, I really love police work, and I could pass myself off as a tour guide.

I do know the Outer Islands, and I can talk a blue streak.

I see what you mean.

The odds are against Raymond being on the tour, but I want to cover every

possible angle.

We've already contacted the Sunrise tour people. They've agreed to put you on as

a tour guide. So keep your eyes open. Yes, sir.

What did you say this man Raymond looked like?

I didn't say.

Nobody knows.

Nobody alive.

No, no, excuse me private and no one allowed sorry

Isn't this 23 24

24 I Must have pushed the wrong button,

excuse me

You guys think you are picking me up on the golf course, embarrassing me in

front of my friends?

Sit down, Mr. Vaughn.

You are aware that a man was killed on the flight that you arrived on from

Seattle? I arrived on?

There were 300 people on that plane.

And what's a guy getting snuffed have to do with me?

Perhaps nothing.

But on the other hand, it seems you do have a history of violence.

So I cracked a few heads.

That's ancient history, pal. I'm in legitimate business now.

Don't call me pal.

What kind of legitimate business are you in, Mr. Vaughn?

Industrial laundries.

I see.

Did you know the victims?

I know my rights. I don't have to answer that question.

Which would only lead me to believe that you had something to hide.

Okay. I didn't know him. I didn't talk to him.

Hell, I wouldn't know him if you wheeled him in here.

Would you show me exactly where you were seated on the aircraft, please?

Did you leave your seat at any time, say, an hour before the plane landed?

Only if I walked in my sleep.

I always sleep on planes. It's better than watching them crummy movies.

Is there anyone who could confirm that you did not leave your seat?

Yeah.

That fat dame sitting next to me.

Does the fat dame have a name?

Oh, yeah. She introduced herself to me about ten times.

It was, uh, Ethel something.

Ethel Carter, that was it.

Why don't you ask her?

Oh, we intend to.

All right, you may go.

Maybe you can pick your friends up on the back nine.

Back nine?

I was on the 14th hole when Charlie Chan there picked me up.

Oh, one more thing.

Let Charlie Chan there know where you can be reached in case we want to talk

to you again.

I'll do that.

What now?

It looks like we're back to go, Charlie.

We don't know anything more than when we started.

Hello?

Yes, this is Robert Houston.

Oh, Miss Parr.

Listen, I sure am sorry I couldn't meet you early today.

Yeah, well, I'd love to have drinks with you and the others, but I still have

some packing to do for our trip to the Outer Islands tomorrow.

I could come on down when I'm through, uh-huh, yeah. I'll try anyway.

No, Miss Parr, I won't forget.

Hazel, I won't forget.

Okay.

Welcome aboard.

Hello, how are you doing this morning?

Hi.

Hey, it's good to see you. Good morning.

All right, are we all here?

Where's Miss Park? How are you this morning?

She's on the way. Just saw her in the lobby.

Aloha to you.

Oh, good morning.

Good morning, Mr.

Huston?

Houston. Robert Houston.

It'll take me a while to remember the names. I'm Sandy.

Oh, hi.

Sandy's going to be with us for the next week.

Oh, terrific.

Oh, sure. Wonderful for the men. Why couldn't you have assigned us a nice

young surfer?

I serve.

It's not the same.

Oh, well.

Maybe you'll stick around now and stop wandering off and forgetting

engagements. You stood me up, you know.

Hazel, I really am sorry about that. You know, Mr. Houston was the only one who

didn't go with us on the Pearl Harbor tour yesterday.

Oh? Yeah, where'd you go, anyway?

Beach.

Julia Lewis was single, age 28, born in Madison, Wisconsin.

She'd been director of population at the Ilikay Hotel for the last three and a

half years.

As far as I can gather, she didn't have an enemy in the world.

Any government connections, FBI, CIA?

As far as we know, she was clean, Steve.

What about gentlemen, friends?

Well, nothing serious.

The most important thing in her life seems to have been her job. It was

tough, but she was good at it. Almost too good.

What do you mean by too good?

Well... Public relations at a big hotel means anti-publicity a lot of the time,

protecting the guest's privacy.

We found a note in her files, cancelling all media interviews between the 11th

and the 18th of this month. Did you check with the manager?

Yeah. We went into a strong war there, too.

All he'd tell us was that a travel agency in London had booked the entire

24th floor for two weeks, beginning yesterday.

The main party's due in on the 11th.

I called London, found out the names of the three agents who handled the

booking.

One was sent to convalesce.

The other two on vacation.

They should all be away at least a month.

And I assume there were no forwarding addresses on any of them. Right.

Okay, gentlemen.

We pick up the pieces and go on.

If you don't see anything you like, I'm available.

Excuse me for a living.

Stop the whirl. I'll get off.

What do they call this stuff again?

It's poi.

Sure looks like wallpaper paste.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

Listen, have you seen Mr. Houston around anywhere?

Oh, yeah. You know our blonde tour guide?

About a half hour ago, I saw them both walking down the beach together.

But I just can't tell you how much I hate men.

Sir,

the water's really nice. Isn't it?

It's beautiful here, isn't it?

Breathtaking.

It's just like Robinson Crusoe's Island.

That used to be my favorite book.

I always thought how wonderful it would be to be alone in your own private

world.

Well, has its drawbacks.

You speak like one who knows.

Do you lead a lonely life?

It's my own choice.

But you're a businessman.

How can you be lonely in business?

Depends on the business, I guess, doesn't it?

Or the man.

Or the man.

You're from Portland, yes?

Uh-huh. I love that city.

Yeah, so do I.

I was there in 1975.

I remember driving north on Broadway, all the way down past the shops and the

theaters, from my hotel room on Salmon Street all the way to Stark.

Is there something wrong?

That must have been quite a ride, north on Broadway.

Why?

Guess Broadway's a one-way street south.

Broadway is?

Broadway is.

You testing me, Sandy?

Don't you believe I'm from Portland?

Oh, sure.

I, uh,

I must have gotten my streets mixed up. Uh, 6th. 6th is the one that's one way

north, isn't it?

Uh-huh.

So lovely.

Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt.

Why don't you two guys just keep on doing whatever you were doing?

No problem. We were just looking for some shells.

There are no shells left in Hawaii, honey. Why don't you try the bushes?

Isn't it beautiful here?

Beautiful.

Beautiful. Every member of the tour checks out, including the tour guide. Of

course.

Raymond's a pro. He'd make sure his cover story was foolproof, wouldn't he?

Still nothing heavy on any of the passengers, Steve.

But we're halfway down the list.

What about Officer Wells? Have we heard anything from her?

Not yet.

She said she'd hold off until she got something solid.

Garrett. Jonathan Kayser. Yes, put him on, please.

Jonathan?

I moved a couple of mountains and found out who your mysterious VIPs are.

Well, who are they?

I hope you're ready for this.

They're OPEC leaders, six of them.

They're due in Honolulu to hammer out some new oil prices.

They'll be staying at the Ilikai.

Who's heading the group?

Sheikh Abraham Ibn Khaldun.

From Kuwait?

Yes. But the assassination of any one of these men, Steve, could have a

devastating effect on world money markets.

You've got to take every possible precaution.

Jonathan, I'd like to ask you a question.

Yes?

I'm in charge of security here. Now, why wasn't I informed of this meeting

earlier? Well, I understand how you feel, Steve.

But apparently the oil ministers always provide their own security.

When are they arriving?

Tomorrow, noon, your time, on a chartered flight.

Very well, Jonathan. Thank you.

Raymond is after the heads of OPEC. Six of them will arrive here tomorrow.

Now, contact the FBI, HPD. Tell them we need every man they can spare. Right.

Airport security should have at least two men on every gate.

Now, if that's not possible, tell them to call me, and I'll ask the governor to

have the National Guard standing by.

How are you at drawing maps?

I got a merit badge for it as an Eagle Scout.

I want detailed information on every entrance and exit to the Ilikai.

I want to know the exact position of the rooms the OPEC ministers will be

occupying, and I want clearances on every maid, bellhop, and busboy serving

them. Check.

Everybody packed? We start for the airport in an hour. Oh, I can't believe

it's all over so soon.

What a wonderful vacation it finally turned out to be.

Spectacular. Better start packing. You've got less than an hour.

All packed?

Packed. Only Moses. Robert, listen, I'll only be a minute.

Order me some coffee, would you? Cream or sugar?

Black.

Excuse me.

I seem to have forgotten my key. Would you mind?

Not a word.

Not a sound.

Yes, this is Robert Houston.

Can I have the latest quote on Hawaiian Mutual Electric, please?

Thank you.

Robert.

Hello?

Yes, Robert.

I've picked up a parasite.

Sorry to hear.

It'll be difficult getting rid of it.

Everybody will wonder where it's gone.

I thought I'd check with you first.

Well, I'm glad you did.

Is everything all right?

I'm a little concerned about Oahu, Robert.

Oh? Why?

I've been thinking of canceling the contract.

For what reason?

There's been a leak of some kind.

There'll be guards at the airport.

I'm not using the airport.

Guards all along the route, all around the hotel.

No, it can be done.

How would you get in?

Getting in is easy.

Problem's getting out again.

All right. How would you get out again?

With a friend.

Your parasite?

That's correct.

Of course, you'd have to kill it afterward.

That's affirmative.

You'll have to leave this way as soon as possible.

Why? This way, please.

Wow.

Who's in charge here I am

McGarrett, Hawaii Five-O, State Police. What can I do for you, Excellency?

You are responsible for this circus.

Circus?

I'm responsible for your security, if that's what you mean. I arrange my own

security.

You're on United States soil now, Excellency, and you're in my

jurisdiction. I'll decide what safeguards are appropriate for you and

your company.

Oh, you will?

Yes, sir, I will.

And supposing I do not approve?

and you're free to leave as soon as your plane has refueled.

Good.

Welcome to Hawaii.

Now, may I suggest that you change your plans and go to a different hotel. We

can arrange for that immediately.

Out of the question.

Hi, Duke.

It's okay. My assignment tour is over. This is Mr. Houston.

How do you do?

Did Mr. McGarrett call?

Here? No.

Oh, well, we saw him at the airport, and he told us to come over and help out. It

seems that Mr. Houston had a run-in with Raymond once, and he thinks he might be

able to identify him.

Good. Well, it's quite a few years, but it made quite an impression on me.

There's a face I won't forget.

May we go in?

Yeah. Okay. Go ahead.

Operator, Officer Kelly Five-O. Patch me through to McGarrett.

McGarrett. Steve, did you talk to Sandy at the airport?

No, why?

You didn't send her over here with a man named Houston?

No.

Well, that's the story she just gave me.

Try and locate her. I'm only ten minutes away.

Okay.

See, the truth is, hon, I'd much rather have your company.

But, uh...

I just don't know how I keep track of you and all those Arab ministers at the

same time.

So, you just wait here nice and quiet.

I'll be back as soon as I can, and we'll go out the way we came in.

Arm in arm.

Okay?

Bye. Bye.

Thank you.

All right.

All set? Yeah.

They're arrived.

Can we go? Yes, now.

Anything?

Not so far. I'll check inside.

Alhamdulillah.

Help!

Somebody help!

I'm in here!

10-15.

10-15, this is Officer Wells. I am on the 23rd floor.

Duke, Chin, anybody, can you hear me?

Go ahead, Sandy. Raymond is here somewhere on the 23rd or 24th floor.

He's armed.

Got it.

Sandy's in trouble. Yeah, I heard.

Dano, Chin, come with me. Steve.

There's a guy on the ledge on the 24th floor. Could be the hitman.

Deno, take over. Hit the 24th floor. Kimo, bring your piece. Come with me.

There he is. He's got a gun.

How's Sandy? Is she all right?

He didn't hurt her. She's coming down.

No, no, I don't want her to see this.

He never got a shot off, did he?

No, he didn't, Steve. They're all safe, except the Sheik.

Sheik?

His own guards had to tackle him. They sprained his ankle.

That's tough.

Better than a bullet in the head.

Let's go.

Take over.
