What Season 6 of Hawaii Five-O

Season six opens with the same elite Hawaiian team, a state force that answers directly to Governor Paul Jameson. Steve McGarrett remains in charge as detective captain, and working alongside him are Danny Williams, Chin Ho Kelly and Kono Kalakaua. The twenty-four episodes bring together a wide variety of cases: a handless man who wants revenge on the police officers who left him that way, a family of criminals who sow chaos on arriving in the islands, an opal smuggler, and a fake diamond scam aimed at tourists. Each investigation forces the team to move between Honolulu and the rest of the archipelago.
