Original subtitles

Feathered capes and pelts were a Mark of social rank.

Only high-ranking chiefs or warriors of great ability --

you may use both stairways here --

...had the right to wear these garments.

The feathered garments were made and worn only by men.

In time of war,

feathered garments were worn into battle,

and it was a great achievement

for a warrior to overcome a chief and take his cloak.

Here we have the cloak

of the greatest of all the Hawaiian kings --

kamehameha the first, kamehameha the great.

The cloak was generations in the making

and was made from feathers of birds which are now extinct.

Even the art of making the cloak has disappeared.

It has been estimated the cloak is worth millions of dollars,

but something so rare is really priceless.

And only during kamehameha week

is the cloak taken from the case and displayed.

Now if you'll just follow me,

we'll take a look at the pacific room.

[ Horn blows ]

Oh, I'm so sorry. We've run out of time.

They close this place right on the button.

But at least you've been able to see

some of the greatest examples of ancient Hawaiian artifacts

and exhibits anywhere in the world.

[ Children cheering ]

Good luck, Sam.

[ Meows ]

[ "Hawaii five-o" theme plays ]

[ Children cheering ]

[ Alarm rings ]

[ Second alarm rings ]

[ Ringing continues ]

[ Sirens wails ]

64 seconds. Remember that.

Arnie, you know what?

You never forget anything.

-Even the catnip for Sam. -[ Ringing stops ]

That sounded like two alarms, various in pitch.

Remember that.

What else, baby?

[ Sirens wailing ]

The boys will fill us in.

Hey, you know,

I think we still got a few more hours of sun.

Hey!

[ Wailing continues ]

Chin, what do we got?

The alarm was set off at 4:37.

They're checking now to see if anything is missing.

Who's that?

The museum curator.

Nice, but the nervous type.

Maybe he's got a lot to be nervous about.

Doctor...

Mcgarrett, five-o. Danny Williams.

Mr. Mcgarrett. Gentlemen.

Mr. Mcgarrett, there's absolutely nothing missing.

-How can you be sure? -We've checked everywhere.

-What triggered the alarm? -I don't know.

The guards were here, and they didn't see anything.

Well, we'll take a look anyway.

Check the exterior doors...

Steve.

Look what I found behind queen Emma's silverware.

And I thought I knew all the cats in the islands.

You still want us to check out who triggered alarm?

No. Take him downtown and book him for trespassing.

Tell him his rights and give him some milk and catnip.

[ Laughs ]

[ Meows ]

You heard what the boss said.

Book him.

There he goes.

Goes who?

Steve mcgarrett, five-o.

He's Mr. Cop from the mainland to Tokyo.

Have you ever got a surprise for him, hey, Arnie?

-[ Laughs ] -Yeah. Especially for him.

Hey, I think you've had a little too much sun.

Come on.

And now I know why they call it a dry run...

Because it makes you so thirsty!

[ All laugh ]

I'll say.

Ah!

Now we know how long it takes them to answer the alarm, right?

If anything goes wrong, we got 60 seconds to disappear.

Hey, Eddie, you say there's a floor alarm, right?

Mm, extends about 10 feet, but no guarantees

when you use a little old pussycat for a tape measure.

But Sam did a good job.

Mm-hmm. I sure hope he didn't get busted.

Let's hear it for old Sam, huh?

Yay, Sam!

Hey, Johnny, are you sure you can take care of your end?

10 feet.

I could throw him that far if I had to.

Oh, sure.

Hey, what about me?

Don't you want to know if I can handle my end?

Oo-hoo!

He knows you can handle it. [ Laughs ]

When do we go, Arnie?

Got anything on for tonight?

I got exams. I'll be studying all night tonight.

Yeah, me too.

Okay, how about tomorrow night?

Wow. So soon?

Why not?

I mean, if anybody's getting shaky about this whole thing,

maybe we can call it all off.

Yeah, maybe we can go to a movie instead.

Oh, come on, Arnie. Nobody's getting scared.

Besides, I've seen all the moving pictures in town!

Okay, tomorrow night's it.

Oh, hello, Mr. Mcgarrett.

Hello, doctor. What's the matter?

More trouble?

Same thing -- that pussycat.

How does a cat get inside a locked museum?

[ Chuckles ] I don't know.

I suppose it could have gotten in unnoticed

when we were locking up.

If a cat could, so could a human being, right?

Oh, that's what's bothering you, huh?

All night, doctor. All night.

Well, let me relieve your mind.

We have the finest security system in the islands.

Systems can be beaten.

Not ours, mcgarrett.

I've heard that before.

Here, here's the floor plan of the entire museum.

Let me show you...

...how it works.

Now, first of all, they got four guards on the payroll --

two while it's open, two on night duty.

Now, the night duty crisscrosses on their rounds here,

here, and here.

Every section of the museum

gets covered every four and a half minutes,

which means you guys got to get in and out in less.

-No sweat, Arnie. -Okay.

Now, the guards start their swing up here in the east wing.

One takes care of the polynesian section.

The other one covers the kahili section.

Now, they crisscross over here in the west wing

at exactly 12:14.

Now that leaves only...

...four and a half minutes the theft

would have to be completed. Foolproof, right?

It could be done.

But first they'd have to get past the exterior alarms...

...which are operated by a straight electric circuit break

covering all the doors, windows, and our target, the skylight.

And if the electrical circuit around the doors, windows,

even the skylight is broken,

the alarm is instantly triggered.

Not if they cut the power lines or...

We jump the skylight without touching anything

that will set off the alarm.

Then we get in and out, as quiet as...

A mouse would even be stopped by my own special favorite.

It's an independent alarm system with its own generator

built right down inside the basement of this building.

No power leads. No lines to cut.

And it's automatically set every night at closing time

when we lock the front doors.

Here, let me show you.

It starts right here at the edge of this exhibit

and goes all the way around.

Now, any weight put on here after the alarm is set

automatically triggers it.

Watch.

[ Alarm sounds ]

It's all right, fellas.

So you see, Mr. Mcgarrett, nobody can get any closer...

...than 10 feet or, zap, you set off the alarm.

Think you can handle it?

Consider it handled.

Okay.

It's 12:10.

Woof.

Okay.

You have exactly three minutes from...

Now!

[ Tires screech ]

I was gonna ask you what you're doing here,

but I don't guess I have to.

We're not doing anything, officer.

-Mnh-mnh. -Honest.

Okay. As long as you're not doing anything,

how about doing it on somebody else's beat?

Yes, sir.

[ Engine turns over ]

[ Clanging ]

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Yelling, laughing ]

I think it was about quarter of --

I think it was about quarter of 7:00.

The museum closes at 4:30.

It was tied just about here.

Be sure you get a reading in this area.

Ben...give me some mug shots.

Got a good one over here.

4 1/2 minutes is a long time.

Any prints, Charlie?

Not a print in the house.

I'd have bet on that.

There is something, though.

The floor -- take a look.

Yeah, something scratched the marble.

Something very heavy.

Get me a reading on it, Charlie.

You did it just like you said you would, Arnie.

Baby, you're beautiful.

Hey, Johnny...

You're about the closest thing we got to kamehameha.

Why don't you try it on?

Hey, what's the matter? You scared?

Just because you're part Hawaiian?

Hey, everybody, he's scared.

Come on, Johnny, enjoy!

We just pulled off the biggest robbery

these islands have ever seen, right?

There's nothing to be scared about!

It's not that. It's just that...

Hey, look, we just knocked the establishment

right on their status quo.

I mean, we did it so nice and clean.

Come on, put it on.

We didn't leave one thing that they can trace to us.

Not one rotten thing.

There. Have a ball.

Lay it out.

Steel shavings...

From the kind of pipe you could buy from any plumbing store.

You can buy the wire jumper anywhere.

Add to that strands of hemp from a piece of rope

you can buy in any hardware store on the island.

What about the footprints?

The plaster casts show that you could buy

that type of shoe from any store.

So it comes up zero.

[ Telephone rings ]

Williams.

Yeah.

It's the big man.

Mcgarrett. Yes, governor.

Yes, sir.

You're kidding me.

You want the truth?

I don't think much of it.

I don't deal in amnesty. I don't think it works.

I think it's a license to steal.

[ Sighs ]

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. I'm on my way.

By authority of the governor of the state of Hawaii,

I've been instructed to offer

any and all persons involved in this theft complete amnesty.

Return the kamehameha cloak immediately,

and the state guarantees

that no charges will be pressed against you.

Now a word of caution.

The cloak is extremely old, extremely fragile.

It should never be placed in direct sunlight

for any period of time.

It should never be creased or hung on a hanger.

[ Laughs ] Get a load of him.

Hey, Arnie, come here quick.

What?

Arnie, they're begging us to give it back!

Oh, no. Do we have to?

They're offering a free ride home, right?

Hey, we're putting the squeeze on them, remember?

I mean, that's what we started out to do, right?

We wanted to put all the haircuts through the ringer.

It's working, right?

I mean, we've even got the biggest cop on the island,

mcgarrett, climbing palm trees.

Can you see old man's face when he finds out?

Boy, is he gonna sweat.

You know, I like to see him sweat.

I think it's a gas. [ Laughs ]

Hey, what's wrong with you?

Nothing.

Come on, hula. What's the bug?

Maybe we ought to give it back, huh?

What?

You got to be kidding, huh?

I want to make them crawl, baby.

I'll burn this thing before I give it back to them.

That's a good idea. Let's burn it.

Hey! Olé!

Come on!

[ Laughs ]

Hyah! Hyah!

♪ Da da da da da, da da ♪

Ah!

Once more! Let's go!

[ Yells ]

You -- female bull!

Now, the scratches on the marble here

show us exactly where they had the tripod --

right here, outside the bugged area.

They used it as some kind of a base, resting a long pole on it,

floating someone out over the alarm section of the floor.

That's the only way it adds.

Dude, he is one strong brother to handle that pole.

They had him.

Somebody light enough to be suspended from the pole.

Maybe a midget.

Or a jockey.

How about a monkey?

Or a giraffe?

Giraffe?

A giraffe could reach over and get it.

But how do you get a giraffe down through the skylight?

[ Scoffs ]

Maybe kids.

No, what would they want it for in the first place?

Wait a minute, danno.

Wait a minute. Maybe it was kids.

Maybe there was no motive.

At least, none we'd understand, huh?

Maybe they did it just for kicks.

Maybe it's just to show the world that they could do it.

Kids needling the establishment?

Steve, you know Larry Kai.

He has something to say that may be interesting.

Larry, how are you? You know everybody.

What do you got?

Well, the night the museum was robbed,

there was a couple of kids there.

They were in a car, and they were grabbing at each other.

What do the kids look like?

It was pretty dark, but I could give you a description.

What about the car?

It was a yellow sports job, foreign-type.

There was a parking sticker on the window.

Parking at the university.

Good!

I just wish I had some film.

I'm sure the sergeant won't mind.

What do you got?

A redhead in the green bathing suit.

Good.

Name's Diana Cole -- junior.

Minds her own business. Got no close girlfriends.

She's majoring in anthropology.

What else?

His name is Arnold Potter, III. 20.

They've been going together this past term.

He's a straight-"a" student, senior, majoring in mathematics,

which will help him count the family money.

Family's in construction in Denver.

Very well off. No previous record.

Okay, turn that way a little bit.

That's it. Good.

Good! Smile.

If it's not too much trouble,

will you get one picture of the suspects?

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

[ All cheering ]

...all day long, by the thousands,

from all over the islands...

To contribute to a reward fund.

Children of all ages and their parents and their grandparents,

all clutching pennies, dimes, dollars --

whatever they can afford to get kamehameha's cloak back.

A spontaneous effort

on the part of the people of the 50th state.

Yeah! 50!

Thank you. Aloha.

-Hi, there. -Hello.

You're a pretty little girl. What's your name?

Jeannie kalamalu.

Do you know who I am?

Yes. Papa acu.

Kiss me right here.

Now, what have you got in your hand?

$1.60.

I was saving it for a new dress for my doll.

And what are you going to do with it now?

Give it to the governor

so he can get kamehameha's cloak back.

Oh, wonderful. Go ahead, sweetheart.

And that's the way it's been.

Pouring in from all over the islands -- dimes, dollars --

from people trying to get back a part of their heritage.

Why don't you folks come down, bring your kids?

The bishop museum.

Say hello to old acu...

What do you sa-- do you want to go back to the museum?

You want to go back there?

-We've been there, right? -Right.

A little bit, yeah. Well, that's it for me.

Oh, hi, there, friends. This is Ralph rover here,

your roving reporter here out on the beach.

And we have thousands of people around here.

I see a little girl. Come here, little girl.

Would you like to talk in the microphone?

What's your name, little girl?

My name is Shirley nichol--

Shirley! Give it to him, Shirley.

And I have saved 75 cents to go all the way to Hollywood,

but I'm gonna give it back to the bad men,

so that then they'll give the cloak back.

Ohhhh!

And here's a little man over here.

What do you think, little man?

Do you think they're going to give the cloak back,

those bad mans?

[ Childlike voice ] Mm, I don't know.

What if they don't?

Okay, okay. We've all had our fun.

We've made our point. Now let's give the cloak back.

The gentleman in the blue wedgies

has something to say, too.

Speak right into the tulips, sir.

Why? I said, "why?!"

Arnie...

Look what we did. What it's done to the people.

Ah, ladies and gentlemen,

this man is truly bugged about something.

It's all that hot, Hawaiian blood running through his veins.

All those ancient taboos

pounding up to the surface, bubbling away.

Ah, yes. This is the 20th century, man.

Get into it.

Hey, what's supposed to happen to us anyway

for messing with kameha-whatshisname's bathrobe?

I mean, does the earth open up and swallow us?

Or maybe all the volcanos start popping at once, huh?

Yeah, and maybe it's none of that, huh?

Maybe it's just about time we started using some common sense.

-Let's give it back, huh? -No! It's too groovy.

I think you've just been outvoted, man.

-We keep it. -Yeah, for how long?

Who knows?

I do. I like the way it feels.

-It's nice. -You do?

Well, get it on! Go ahead!

[ Strumming guitar ]

Yeah, go ahead.

Dance! Faster!

Faster, baby, faster!

Come on! Faster! Faster! Yeah!

Faster! Yeah!

[ Strumming stops ]

Mcgarrett, five-o.

Come on in, boys.

Hey, mcgarrett, you didn't have to go to all the trouble

of getting a search warrant.

If you want to look for something, go ahead and look.

You know what we're looking for?

Sure, what everybody else is looking for.

Kamehameha's cloak, right?

Only what makes you think that four upstanding college kids

like us would pull a caper like that?

Maybe because it's the one big symbol of Hawaiian history, huh?

Oh, I see.

In a world where 1/6 of the population is starving,

and guys like me are getting knocked off in a little war here

and a little war there,

you're worried about symbols, about the past.

Oh, I'm not worried about symbols and the past.

I'm worried about a world without law and justice --

a jungle where no one is free and no one is safe,

when no one gives a damn about anything.

Oh, wow.

You dig down deep enough into a cop,

and you find a real philosopher.

Okay, mcgarrett. You think we stole the cloak?

Well, you tell me how.

Okay.

I figure you're the monkey.

Ah!

[ Imitates monkey ]

And you're the muscle.

And you're, uh...

Ah, never mind.

So you must be the big brains.

Oh, thank you.

No, not there.

Look, mcgarrett, if we were smart enough to steal the cloak,

do you think we'd be dumb enough

to put it in a place where you could put your hands on it?

I don't know, would you?

Psst! Hey, brother.

You and me the only ones in this place with Hawaiian blood.

I bet we got relatives

who came over on the same canoe from Tahiti 1,000 years ago.

You building something, brother?

We ain't haoles. Kamehameha was our king.

Stealing his cloak is like spitting on him.

Now, where's it at?

[ Strumming guitar ]

I tried, boss.

Nothing.

Here comes the fuzz.

Where is it?

Sorry, mcgarrett.

You knocked on the wrong door. I'd like to help you, but...

Where's the cloak?

Hey, what's he talking about, huh?

[ Childlike voice ] What's he talking about, huh?

I don't know. What's he talking about?

I don't know, but I sure love the way

he asks all those cute questions.

Okay, kids, I think you're cute, too. Too cute.

Now the fun and games are over.

From now on, I'm gonna lay it on you, all the way.

Yeah, well, suppose we lay it on you, too,

with a charge something like police brutality.

-How's that grab you, huh? -Oh, I'm shaking all over.

You got to have something to arrest us.

-You need proof, right? -And I'll get it.

I'll get it 'cause every move you make --

and that means you and you and you and you --

from now on is under 24-hour surveillance.

So you might as well give the cloak back to the bishop museum

and go and collect the reward money.

Because if you don't, all bets are off.

That means reward, amnesty, everything.

You dig?

You know, your search warrant says "search," mcgarrett.

You did that. You didn't come up with anything.

See you around, huh?

-Okay? -Clear.

All right.

What are the propositions before us, speaker of the house?

Well, we've got two choices now.

One is follow the original plan and keep the cloak

or turn it in and get a nice pat on the head.

Well, I'm with you either way, Arnie, babe.

How about you, Eddie?

[ Sighs ]

You know, Arnie, that reward money's getting awful fat.

Maybe even 50 thou, just for turning it in.

Yeah, well, suppose I turn you in.

You can't pass an exam without me giving you the answers, right?

Okay, okay. Don't get uptight, Arnie.

I'm with you.

And we already know where you're at.

Majority rules. You're outvoted.

We get rid of the cloak.

You going somewhere?

Yeah, what about it?

Oh, nothing, nothing. It's just, uh...

Be very careful, Johnny.

I mean, we're all in the same bag.

If we go, you go, right?

[ Clattering ]

[ Whistles ]

Yeah, what happened?

They were traveling on kalikawi.

Just cruising.

We were following a few cars behind.

Then, all of a sudden, they jumped the light,

turned the corner, and there we are, boxed in behind two cars.

Oh, beautiful, beautiful.

Continue to drag the area and see if you can pick them up.

Danno, put out an apb on those college kids.

Pick up and hold. I want them.

Got a visitor.

Hello, Johnny. What can I do for you?

Mr. Mcgarrett...

Ah, did you come to talk about the cloak?

I've been walking around all night.

Well, I'm listening, Johnny.

Kono was right.

He said I couldn't live with it.

Live with what?

[ Sighs ]

Johnny, the cloak.

The cloak! Where is it?

They're going for it right now. They're going out to sea,

and they're gonna drop the cloak overboard.

-Where they are they? -Ala wai yacht basin.

Arnie's father's got a boat there, and they're gonna --

[ Shouts indistinctly ]

Wait for me!

Okay, let's raise the captain's colors, huh?

Okay.

Oh, it's so groovy. Do we really have to dump it?

Oh, sure. Why not?

Who knows? You know, you still got me.

We may even go for the crown jewels next time.

-Yeah. -Crew, attention!

Okay.

Well, let's get this thing moving out.

Hit the stern lines, huh?

Hey, first mate, open the bridge, huh?

Let's get it started.

Hey, you landlubber, loosen that stern line, huh?

[ Boat motor starts ]

Hey, it's mcgarrett!

Hurry up!

[ Tires screech ]

Come on, move it!

[ Sirens wail ]

Okay, boys.

I want to call my father.

Get him topside.

Okay, genius, the party's over.

I want to call my father.

Yeah, I figured you would,

even though he's an establishment square.

Take them.

The cape's up there.

Amnesty. You said amnesty.

If you turned it in! If!

Take him.
