Quotes 

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [to Marty]  We know all about your "legitimate businesses", Marty... What are you doing in Honolulu?... Taking over a local racket?... Meeting with the boys from Miami and New York?... What's going on, Marty?

  Mauritany : Now look, McGarrett, you have a subpoena, you lay it right here. If not, get out!

  Det. Steve McGarrett : All right, now hear this, mister... You can stay in Hawaii. But one slip, one schtick... And you're gonna feel like Kilauea went off right under those sixty dollar shoes... That's a volcano. You got the message?

• [last lines] 

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Let's go. We'll send your bags, home.

  Bonnie : Won't we need our clothes?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Oh, you won't need much. You'll find that prison denim wears like iron.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [Clem and Frank have been brought in for questioning, and Steve must leave]  Give them something to read.

  Danny Williams : What?... The new pension plan?

• Det. Steve McGarrett : Martin Mauritany, big syndicate man from Chicago... Track record in gambling, narcotics and extortion... Now headed for Honolulu.

  Chin Ho : With bodyguards.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Yeah, Why?... Why?

  Danny Williams : Guy like Mauritany wings here with muscle... Gotta be bad news.

  Chin Ho : For whom?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Kono, run down to Hotel and Maunakea Street... Put your ear to the coconut wireless and see if you can pick up any static... Chin, check the airlines, big hotels... See if anyone else in Mauritany's leage is headed in.

  Chin Ho : You figure a syndicate meet?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Could be... He's due to arrive at 1:30... Danno, let's run out to the airport... The man comes to Hawaii, he should have a welcoming committee.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [Arriving at the scene of Marty's murder]  Chin, anybody hear anything?

  Chin Ho : Negative... No one saw, no one heard... Not even next door.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Silencer.

  Chin Ho : Yeah... Strictly pro all the way.

• Che Fong : I must be living right... Got an easy one for a change.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Fingerprints?

  Che Fong : Right... Four sets, nothing light, nothing smudged... They could all win picture contests.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [McGarrett emerges from the basement, and Charlie is driving a forklift]  Hello, Charlie

  Charlie Saunders : What do you want, McGarrett?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : I didn't know you were out.

  Charlie Saunders : If you're trying to get me fired, you're wasting your time... They know all about my record here... They beleive in giving people a chance.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : So do I, Charlie... So do I.

• Kono : [to Steve about Charlie]  Didn't you work on that case, Steve?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Worked on it, slept on it, put him away.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [Chin thinks there may be a connection between Chang and Charlie]  Charlie's strictly a loner... Never worked with anyone in his life.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [Steve is trying to find the connection between Chang and Charlie Saunders]  What's the link?... What's the link?

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [McGarrett catches Charlie and Chang escaping into the tunnel to the bank]  Using Clem and his truck was a smart diversion, Charlie... But there was a hole in your plan.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [Steve is briefing his men after Marty's murder]  All three confirmed alibis... In other words, gentlemen, we're batting zero.

  Danny Williams : Zero minus two... Mauritany's bodyguards were picked up last night at the Wiki Wiki Bar on Kulamanu Street... They were there from 4:30 to 8... Absolutely confirmed by dozen witnesses.
