Steve, Kono, Danny, and Lila share a look before walking out into the hallway, Steve looks at Kono "Who's that?"

"Name's Natalie Reed. She's Roland's girlfriend"

"she have any guess who'd want to grab her boyfriend?"

Kono shakes her head "no idea."

Steve looks at her "Alright stay close, if this is a kidnap and ransom, then the abductors might try and make contact, and if they do I want someone who can run the trace."

Kono nods "okay" She goes to walk away.

Danny stops her "hey, listen give us a couple of hours we'll run down some leads. We will relieve you. I promise so you won't miss your graduation"

Kono smiles "It's cool, brah"

Chin walks up to the four of them "I grabbed the security footage from a traffic cam near the crime scene, I'll mine it see if there's anything on there that can help us identify the shooters."

Steve looks at him "Did you get in touch with the security company that Roland hired today?"

Chin nods "yeah, I spoke to the owner. Turns out Roland hired the bodyguards for an appointment he had this morning"

Danny looks at Chin "Where were they going?"

"Hickam Air Force Base."

Danny looks at Steve "you know anyone at Hickam?" then he pauses and answers his own question "A stupid question, of course, you do"

Lila takes off to catch up with Steve on the way to Danny's car "Hey about the girlfriend... there's something off about her, I can feel it. I don't know what it is but her reaction she just didn't seem surprised"

He nods "you think she might be in on it?"

Danny catches up to them "I don't know but I wouldn't rule it out" they climb into Danny's car and Steve takes off to the Air Force Base.

A few minutes later they pull up to the Air Force Base and Steve cuts the car off, gets out of the car and pulls the seat up to let Lila out. She climbs out of the car.

"Roland became paranoid, firing off memos in the middle of the night directly to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Which pissed off his superiors to no end"

"what were the memos about?" Steve questions the guy as we are walking through the base.

"He was constantly telling us how vulnerable we were to attack. In fact, he moved to Hawaii not to retire, but to carry on with his work. He felt this is where he could do the most good."

Danny looks at the General "What does that mean?"

He looks between the three of them "Hawaii's in a strategic position in the global theater and that the United States Pacific Command is directly responsible for 150 million square miles. Literally half the Earth. Why do you think Pearl Harbor was a target?"

"Is that why he wanted to meet with you? 'Cause he felt we were still vulnerable?"

"He said he was working on something that could prove it."

"Okay, what was it?" Danny and Lila ask at the same time. Lila bites back a smirk being twins and all they do that a lot talk at the same time.

"He didn't feel comfortable talking about it over the phone, so he was bringing it over today."

Danny looks at the General "so Roland was about to expose some serious threat to the island?"

The General nods "that's why I took the meeting." Lila nods thinking 'Seems we have our motive for the kidnapping.'

Steve looks at them "That's why he was kidnapped" After they left the Air Force Base, Steve got a call from Chin and one of the gunmen survived and they are going to find him.

"Hotel security cameras show he went up the elevator on the right." Chin tells them as they make their way into the hotel "He was shot. Knew he couldn't go to the hospital."

Lila comes into the conversation "he's looking for a place to hide and heal."

"I got blood," Steve tells them. "He went up."

The Elevator opens and there is a family inside "Hey" who quickly try and make their way out of the elevator as they walk in but the door closes before they make it out "He's on 36" Steve presses the button with his gun.

Steve cocks his gun and the kid looks scared and curious, Danny clears his throat getting Steve's attention. As Lila bites back a laugh thinking 'oh my god our kid would definitely not be afraid of guns... I mean this is me and Steve so that's saying something....... why am I even thinking about this? It's not like it's gonna happen anytime soon.'

Steve looks at the kid "uh, we're cops. Don't worry."

Lila is still biting back her laughter at her boyfriend then Danny smiles talking to the kid "you like hippos?"

The kid nods "I like hippos too, I got a daughter she loves hippos. Everybody likes hippos." The kid smiles and Danny looks at his parents "He'll be okay"

The door opens and the family hurries off the elevator and Steve presses the 36 button with his gun again and the door closes again and Lila laughs "you know we could have let them out before we went up saved that kid a little trauma"

Steve shrugs as Danny looks at him "you have an amazing way with children."

Oh poor Steve looks confused "What?"

The elevator dings and they get out of the elevator taking their positions trying to find the runner Danny and Lila are one side and Steve and Chin on the other Lila sees blood "Here, we got more blood" the four of them run off in the direction following the blood trail.

They bust into the stairwell and there is blood on the rail leading upstairs "He's on the roof."

They split up to search the roof and Steve calls out "found him."

They all run over with their guns pointed at the guy "is he dead?"

Steve shakes his head "not yet" Steve and Lila get the guy sitting up against one of the walls.

Danny has a water hose and he sprays the guy with it to wake him up "Hey" the guy groans holding his hands up to block the water. "Have a nice nap, Princess?" the guy looks up at them "who are you?" the guy just groans "huh?"

Chin comes up on the other side of Steve "the man asked you a question" but the guy doesn't say a word.

Steve bends down in front of him "Where's Roland Lowrey."

Again no answer so Lila crouches down in front of the guys "What do you want with Roland Lowrey?" the guy just groans. Lila rolls her eyes standing up "oh don't be such a baby getting shot's not that bad."

Steve gives his girlfriend a look as Danny talks to the guy "Hey, you know; I've been shot, too. Yeah, you really ought to get that looked at. What's it been, an hour or two since you got hit?" Danny crouches down in front of him "What's gonna happen is bacterial infection is gonna set in, and trust me you do not want that. It goes straight to your bloodstream. You get sepsis, organ failure and the next thing you know they're yanking out your kidneys." Steve looks down at Danny as he continues "and from what I hear, dialysis is um it's not fun."

Lila smirks cutting her brother off to get to the point "so the main thing we are getting at here is tell us what we want to know and we will get you to a hospital before you have to go through all that unpleasantness"

The guy still doesn't say a word so Steve comes in "Danno, Lila move, Chin, hold him down"

Chin and Steve are on either side of the guy Chin holding him down as Steve grabs the guys arm Danny looks at Steve "what are you doing?"

Lila smirks at her brother "Well we gotta get him to talk someway" Then Steve presses the guy's thumb into his bullet wound the guy yells in pain.

Danny just looks done with the whole situation "what is the matter with you?"

Lila rolls her eyes "well we wanna know who he is and Steve just got us a fingerprint."

Steve looks at the three of them "Give me a piece of paper" Chin pulls out a notebook and Steve lays the guys print on it "run that print."

Chin walks off to get the print run Steve hauls the guy up "come on, let's go, Princess"
