Hawaii Five-0 - Olelo Pa'a

McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) and Catherine (Michelle Borth) head to the North Korean border to complete a prisoner exchange and retrieve the remains off an old friend (Alan Ritchson) which leads McGarrett to think back on his SEAL training and share with Catherine the story of his final two-man mission with the SEALs to stop an arms deal between the Antoine Hesse (Norman Reedus) and the leader of terrorist organization known as Dark Sun in North Korea. That story helps explain the reason why McGarrett believes the body in the pine box can’t be those of his fallen comrade and why he’s dead-set on not leaving without the real remains of his friend.

The Shadow #11

/ / Comics

The Shadow #11The “Revolutionary” story arc comes to an end with The Shadow exposing El Rey as nothing more than a puppet of the Black Sparrow who was using the figurehead, and further destabilizing all of Spain, for nothing more than the cold hard cash lining her pocket book.

Despite the pair’s obvious attraction, and the Black Sparrow’s offer of partnership, The Shadow continues his role as “Fate’s triggerman” by doing a dance of death with his adversary on the castle walls on last time before avoiding temptation and steeling himself for a hard decision which makes it unlikely we’ll see the Sparrow again anytime soon.

I’ve enjoyed this arc by the series’ new creative team, even if I am a bit sad to see the Sparrow go away so quickly. I do like how his decision weighs heavy on Lamont Cranston once he returns home to the comforting arms of Margo Lane. Now we’ll have to wait and see what new trouble awaits his alter-ego in New York City. Worth a look.

“You’re saying someone framed Bigfoot?”

Castle - The Fast and the Furriest

Castle (Nathan Fillion) and Beckett (Stana Katic) investigate a murder victim who worked at a primate sanctuary and whose mauled body was dumped at the emergency room in the middle of the night by a convicted killer (James Madio) recently released on parole. A talk with the convict who found the woman in the alley, before unceremoniously dumping her in front of the ER, leads Beckett and Castle to the crime scene which boasts some unusual circumstantial evidence (in the form of giant footprints) that convinces the mystery writer the crime was committed by Bigfoot.
