Thank you.

He got away.

I need more men.

This is better than the last time, sailor.

What's the matter?

What's the matter, kid?

Haskell.

John.

Haskell.

Woodley. Albert R. Damage control man, seaman first.

Who brought him in, doc?

Shore patrol.

He was DOA.

Murdered him. Had him.

You know Danny Williams?

Claude Wells, Navy investigative service.

The rumble was he brought in a kilo of pure heroin, Steve.

I had two men on him, but he shook them off.

Must have made his drop.

Some pay off, yeah.

What killed him, Doc? Don't know.

I'm running a general unknown.

If there's anything we can do at 5-0 or the county coroner's, let us know.

Let's go.

Nothing here, Steve.

Nothing at all. Well, he collects tattoos.

That rose on his right arm is a fresh one.

I don't put Kono on it. Every artist has a signature. I want to know who left

that one on the kid. Right. If Woodley delivers that kilo pure.

Yeah. 10,000 jolts floating around.

Claude, who is John Haskell?

Dealer? Supplier? Nobody we know.

I do.

The USS John Haskell leaves Subic Bay tomorrow morning, coming back from a

tour with the 7th Fleet.

When does she arrive here?

She's about 15 days from Pearl, sir.

We think another kilo might be coming in, Governor. We'd like to try to find

it and keep it under surveillance.

It's a big risk.

Well, Navy's used to taking risks.

Qualified risks.

The Navy has the same problems that you have, Governor.

Some of our men face bigger risks from drugs than they do from bullets.

You have an undercover man on the Haskell?

Yes, sir. He's been keeping the skipper posted.

Chief Hospital Corpsman Franklin.

He was in my command in Vietnam before joining the Haskell.

A good man.

Steve, what would you say to planting one of your men aboard the Haskell?

My very thought, sir.

Now, Steve, it looks like you're going to get your reserve training early this

year. I'd like to hold that ace until we need it, Governor. A good cover would be

an assistant to the chief, medical corpsman.

That way he could work closely with Franklin.

We could put him aboard at Subic.

Got a man who qualifies?

Yeah, I got just the one.

I don't know if I can hack it that long.

Time flies when you're having so much fun.

Hey, Doc, we just had sanitation inspection two days ago.

I got this pain, Doc.

Too sick for duty, right?

Well, with cooks like you, I can diagnose without examination.

Ptomaine poisoning.

Ah, right point.

You'll have it on the plan of the day.

How else can I help?

Sir, we haven't even turned up a joint of marijuana so far.

Unless there's six days left in Pearl Harbor.

There's a good possibility that whoever is carrying the stuff on board is an

addict himself.

That's terrible.

That's why we'd like you to keep stressing the exemption program all the

way to Pearl.

Especially since it offers amnesty to the addict.

I'll contact Armed Forces Radio.

Ask them to keep pushing. What else?

Keep looking.

Can you identify the artist?

This is not art.

Well, whoever did it?

Some near-sighted wino in a mainland clip joint, no doubt.

This?

Oh, my.

It's genius.

But who's genius?

John Surigao.

He came in and showed me some old work.

Very poor, but I promised him I could do better.

And I did.

There's more green tea.

No, thanks. How long was he here?

It took me less than a half hour.

He died that afternoon down near Hotel Street.

The same sailor, the one in the papers?

Yeah, Albert Woodley, 20 years old.

Hard to believe.

So young a man.

He was murdered.

Murdered? The same man?

The one from my own shop?

What is that?

I smoke Philippine cigarettes.

They're very inexpensive.

You're a frugal man, Mr. Surigao.

A man has to learn to save what he has.

Did Woodley say where he was going?

What was on his mind?

Anything.

No, no.

To die so young.

Sometimes it comes back. If you remember anything at all, just call us.

Fine, fine, fine.

Here.

Okay, Kono.

I want to know his bank account, friends, where he goes, what he eats for

breakfast, the works.

You think he knows more than he told us?

I don't know.

I don't know, but I do know he's the last man to see Woodley alive.

Are you Dylan?

Yeah, I'm Dylan.

I'm Salton, Art Salton.

I need help.

Better go see the chaplain.

We got four more days.

I'm not gonna make it. Look, I'm night watch, you're day watch. We'll just

leave it that way, huh?

I shot my last deck.

I need a couple of dime bags, that's all.

Did you try the ship's doors?

Al Woodley told me that you dealt for him in Nam.

That shop is closed now.

I can pay!

Look, I thought I was just chipping, but I'm hooked!

What am I gonna do tomorrow?

You do what we all do.

Hang in there.

If you don't help me out, I'll blow the whistle on you. I swear I will.

Eight dime bags, do you?

Yeah.

I don't have it on me. What, are you crazy?

Take it while I got it!

When?

Tonight, 2200.

In the machine shop.

I don't think I can hack it that long. You don't think you can hack it? I gotta

wait till my watch changes.

Be there at 2200. You don't have any choice.

An alkaloid.

That's what killed Albert Woodley, some kind of alkaloid. Doc, that's like

saying that death was caused by a bullet. Now, give me some lands and

grooves, will you? What alkaloid?

I'm down to the rare ones. You might even say exotic.

I'm scanning between 4,000 and 500 reciprocal centimeters.

We lucked out.

A carnitine. What is it? I never heard of it.

Rare, Steve, very rare. I suspected it, but I've never actually encountered

aconitine as a cause of death.

In all my years, I have never seen anything like this.

Well, Doc, please, now spare me the historical moments, will you? What is

it?

The aconitine napolis.

A common plant.

Um, monkshood, you'd call it. What did he do? Eat it? What is it? A vine? A

leaf? What?

It would have to be distilled.

Ten milligrams, less than a single drop, could cause death inside an hour.

Well, how did Woodley get it?

You could introduce aconitine orally, intravenously, subcutaneously.

It could even be absorbed directly into moist skin.

Now, wait a minute. Let me understand this. You mean that a single drop on a

man's sweaty hand, for instance, could cause death?

In less than an hour.

and pound everything at that tattoo shop of Surigao's.

Dyes, needles, the works.

And get them over to the lab. This is a wild hunch, but I want Doc to check it

out.

Hey, Doc.

Must have read my mind.

Something the matter?

I got a real bad headache.

I can't sleep.

Run in.

Man, I'm glad you came, Doc.

What's your name?

Art Sullivan.

Let me see your eyes, Art. That's not my eyes, Doc.

I must be getting a cold or something.

You're using her.

Me? No.

I was snorting a little in NAMM.

Lots of guys tried something just to stay normal.

Normal? You're strung out.

Me?

I just need to relax.

Come on, Doc. Give me a couple of reds or something.

Got them all.

Dilated pupils.

Runny nose.

Sweating.

Yawning.

I took some antibiotics.

The cold, you know?

Look, Sultan, I can help you.

And I want to.

You've heard about the exemption program.

No court-martial. You'll get medical treatment.

Bull, Doc!

What is this? A guy comes in with a cold and you can do a whole number of... Your

heart.

You know it.

I know it. And by tomorrow, everybody will know it.

I'm just chipping a little, that's all.

You're an addict.

An addict.

You want to start stealing and dealing and wind up in the junkyard? Or do you

want to try to quit it now with help?

I'll think about it, okay? That's not good enough.

What's my choice then?

If I turn you in, you get busted and the brig. You turn yourself in under the

exemption program, you get clear and nothing less than an honorable

discharge.

Look, the chances are you won't get by the screening test anyway.

I turned myself in.

You ask a lot, Doc.

The Navy's giving a lot.

Okay.

Give me 15 minutes and I'll be back.

Why not now?

I need time to get my head into this thing.

Fifteen minutes.

You turn yourself in.

Or I have to.

Salton, Arthur, Stevie's jumpy, in bad shape.

Yeah, careful not to scare him off, Dunno.

Letting him go was a big gamble.

I hated to, but I was afraid of blowing my cover.

Yeah, yeah, you had to let him go. You must not blow your cover. We have a lot

more at stake here than one hook kid, but so far, he's our only chance.

I came for my 80 bucks.

You're early.

I'm going for exemption.

I figured I didn't need the nod, so I'd like to have my 80 back.

That's terrific.

It's a good idea.

No pain, no strain?

Yeah, sure.

Whatever you say.

Don't know what I did with it.

No more jolts, huh?

No more sweet dreams?

You better count it.

I don't want to cheat you. It's okay.

Hey, Salton.

We got four more days to Pearl.

Man, that's a long time.

You know, if they got anything for you on board ship, keep your skull from

blowing up.

Four days.

I hate to have to see you kick it cold.

It's okay.

You know, if I was you, I'd wait till we got to Pearl.

I mean, they have methadone there for you, for sure.

Man, you get exempted.

Don't have to sweat those... those days.

Those long nights with no sweets.

You think they... I'll take a chance. Sweat it out.

Sweat it out, man. You're not gonna sweat out four minutes, much less four

days.

Exemption, sure.

What's the difference now or four days from now?

Be safe.

Be easy.

It's beautiful stuff.

Pure.

Now to duty, Corbin. Lay to the after gun mount. On the double.

He's still alive.

Scrapings off Woodley's shoes, pocket lint, hair, clothing, hat.

All zero, Steve.

Just this.

From under the fingernails of his right hand.

Fingernails? What is it?

It's a granular chemical compound.

The crystalline structure is not too helpful.

Well, is it coal dust and or what?

It's a compound.

Contains potassium, some carbon derivative, and a dye.

Woodley had that heroin hidden some place on board.

Now, could it be maybe, just maybe, that when he dug down to get it, this stuff

could have caught under his fingernails?

There must be a hundred compounds on his ship, Steve.

I'd have to compare each of them to this.

Well, could you narrow it down any?

I'd be guessing.

Guess. Well, the... Combination could include explosives, dye markers, signal

flares, cleaning compound.

Steve, it would take me days to go through all of them. Jay, I don't have

days.

You know, I know more about John Sturgard than his old mother.

who incidentally still lives in the Philippines.

He sends her 30 bucks a month.

His bank account shows $1,027.43.

Anything from the lab on his equipment?

Nope. Inks, dyes, needles, all clean.

Any priors?

Yeah, a wrist jacket shows one.

1959,

driving too slow on Moanalua Freeway.

Then he had a suspect.

He thought the guy might be the dealer.

He just called in.

Found the guy almost dead from an overdose.

Gonna make it?

In a coma.

Take a look.

Steve? Yes, Jay.

Remember the scrapings I got from under Woodley's fingernails?

You mean the granulated stuff, the granulated material?

Right. They were the key, Steve.

What did you find?

Potassium chlorinate.

We went through hundreds of slide samples and narrowed it down to that

precise derivative.

Is that what we used to call purple K in the Navy?

Right. The dry packing and the fire extinguishers.

Then it's a fair guess.

He's got the stuff under his fingernails, if the H was stashed in an

extinguisher. That's how I figure it.

You got us a lead, Jay. Good work. Looks like I've got an ocean cruise in the

making. Good luck.

Thanks, Jay. Thanks.

Thank you.

Fire extinguishers? Yeah. Purple K.

Passing by Covenant.

It's our best guess. That's where Woodley had his brick hidden.

Can you help us on this, Captain?

We're running out of time.

I'll run a test exercise.

It's a bit odd for two days out of Pearl, but it'll keep him busy.

Did you check out who's responsible for keeping the fire extinguishers filled?

Only one man on the TO.

Damage control man named Dylan.

Anything? Nothing.

Okay, McGarrett.

Chin, I've got a clear view of anyone coming down.

Nothing yet, Steve.

All right, we'll stay with it.

Steve, maybe we're wrong about Dylan.

Suspect coming down, Steve.

Do I tail?

No, leave them to NIS. They're on top of it.

Let's keep our eyes peeled for everything going on and coming off that

ship.

Steve, ship's empty except for a token watch.

What do we do?

What do we always do, Dono? We wait.

We wait.

I see him.

Checking shore power.

You know your way? Get in my sleep.

Danny!

Five. Now, talk fast. Who's the dealer? I don't know. I don't know anything.

What do you mean you don't know? I don't know. It was just 200 bucks for the

pickup. That's all I know. That's honest.

You're in trouble, buddy.

10 to 20 at hard time.

Now, talk fast.

Who's the dealer? Look, look, I got a call. I just got a call on the

telephone. A guy knows I work on the docks. He says I can make an extra buck.

How do you get paid off?

In the mail.

It comes in the mail.

I mean, you got to give me a break. I don't even know what's in there. Yeah?

Okay. Thank you, Drop.

Can I bring it? I mean, me, this?

Yeah, that.

You switched!

It's sawdust!

You know what they'll do to me?

They'll kill me.

That's your problem. Your problem.

Okay, okay, okay.

I'll do anything you ask. I'll do it just like you say.

But you've got to protect me.

All right.

I'm going to give you back one kilo of pure horse and you're going to make your

drop. You understand that? It's promised to protect me.

Come on, let's go.

I don't like to eat that.

We have to eat it.

Step inside, please.

Byron, step inside, please.

Open the bag.

Open it.

I won it in a crap game on the Haskell.

Sure.

You're under arrest, sailor. You'll be held in custody at 5-0 until we can turn

you over to the Navy authorities.

We'll check your fingerprints. You'll have a good time explaining how Surigo

got about the Haskell-issue craps.

You're out of the dirty junk business, sailor.

Like 5 to 10 in Portsmouth?

Shit!

Dino, get the back.

Sure, it's your money.

You can spend what's left after back taxes and penalties.

Maybe you can spend every cent after you get out a federal pen. Maybe in 50

years. Now get him out of here! That's my money. Don't take away my money!

That's my money. I work hard for it.

Don't take away my money.

What's the word on Salton? He should have grabbed the exemption program when

he offered it.

He died this morning.
