Why was Five-O called to investigate this case?

This should have been something for HPD Homicide to work on. Overall, a pretty lame and forgettable episode.

And is Polo really that big of a team sport on the Islands?

The only real revelation was Steve realizing that Mommy is a liar.

We need more Catherine. The Governor needs to hire her to the Five-O team.

This is a Procedural. The Wo Fat/Mrs. McGarrett storyline is the closest thing to serialized you will get.

yea, I usually don't watch procedurals, but I was left with no choice after "24" ended.

I was just complaining...haha, I still enjoy this show for what it is.

Serial shows often end badly - trail off, are cancelled before a good conclusion was reached, or just aired out of order. Procedurals are much safer these days. I appreciate that if 50 was cancelled today, I'd be happy with the fun episodes we did get, not left annoyed that we didn't get a big resolution to some overarching storyline.

The twist was actually pretty good. Usually you can figure out the bad guy the second they appear on screen.

Great decapitation scene.

There are polo fields, but usually only a couple of clubs and out of town clubs come in to play matches AFAIK.

She certainly has A LOT of time away from NIA and out of her fatigues.

Knew it was the kid, but would have liked a darker turn that the kid also planned his own kidnapping at age 10. How they did not know about it until after digging was lame. HPD would have recalled the kid's kidnapping.

Weird to see Anson be such a pussy.

Hmm.. are they sponsored by Vita Water now? And another shout out to Liliha Bakery.
