This episode of "Hawaii Five-O" is not without problems, but it's still decent and watchable. I know this isn't a glowing endorsement, but a mediocre or even sub-par episode of this great series is worth seeing.
One problem is immediately apparent and that is that this episode involves the music industry. I know that in all the other cases this means the episode will not be very good--and was the case with one which featured Sal Mineo as a singer and another featuring Yvonne Elliman and all the other musical episodes. Also, I know this might sound catty but while Lois Nettleton was a fine actress in this and many other shows, her singing was not great.
The other problems are logical lapses. The episode involves Nettleton witnessing a murder and then being places in protective custody to keep the mobster killer from killing her. Yet, in one scene, she walks outside the hiding house with McGarrett and in another she's sitting next to an open window playing her guitar. Could it have been any easier for the killer?! Still, the show is decent and I did appreciate the ending.
