I read that and figured Chuck Norris was guest starring, which would have been cool.

LOL you know at some point they checked to see if he wanted to do it. They would have loved to have Walker show up.

I would have loved it if they got Kelli Giddish to come in from SVU to play her Ranger character from NBC's Chase series as well.

I don't know why they bother with the Kono stuff anymore.

I thought that was stupid too. Even if she emptied her clip, the baddies certainly didn't empty theirs, and Kono and Adams seemed to lack weapons of their own.

China has strict gun control laws.

I thought McGarrett's mom was the one that set them up in China? And then I was hoping that along the way they would have killed a panda.

Nice moment with McGarrett in the Grand Marquis before he took Danny's new Camaro out for a spin. I didn't get the whole thing with Catherine? Are they looking to let her go as soon as Kono comes back? And why not just have McGarrett offer her a job with 5-0?

Thought it was a pretty decent mostly self contained episode.

Odd choice to cast Tim Daly as a Texas Ranger. This would have been the perfect opportunity to bring Chuck Norris out of retirement. CBS owns the character after all. But overall it was a fun episode.

I think Steve and Cat's navy pal has some kind of ulterior motive. I doubt he's there just to offer Cat a job.

Looks like Chin finally got a haircut.

With Ian Anthony Dale being cast in Murder in the First on TNT, I think it's only a matter of time before he's written out. I think Adam will eventually be killed off, which will then bring Kono back to Honolulu.

The job Cat does for the security company will be one of the overarching themes of the season.
