Chin teasing Kono about her boyfriend was priceless! I'm half-suspecting that it will turn out to be Steve letting someone know he's still alive, although I don't think Kono would be cruel enough not to tell Danny and Chin, no matter what Steve told her to do. Charlie as an actual boyfriend would be interesting.
I like that writers are keeping Danny and Steve's bromance going even while Steve is gone. They're doing a good job of showing Danny being worried and trying to figure out what Steve is doing, without getting too stupid about go haring off on his own. I completely agree with you about Steve deserving a punch, a rant, and a hug.
I would love to see Steve pick up on Sam's name for Danny's car. I keep thinking about the musical "Once Upon a Mattress" and the song "I'm in Love with a Girl Named Fred," however. Danny needs to remember that his daughter will ride in that car before he decides he's ok with it having a "stripper name."
There was one thing that kept bugging me in this episode though. Were HPD and the CDC really busy, or has Steve been rubbing off on everyone? "Oh, hey, we found where the bad guys are almost certainly doing their smallpox testing. Let's run down there without calling for backup!" "Hmm, that didn't work, so let's try it again with the bio-weapon sale in a really crowded tourist spot!" Sigh.
Also, I hope that someone takes the time to vaccinate our heroes against smallpox. No, it won't be for that particular strain, but I would think that vaccinating them against a known strain might help their bodies resist the related virus. (I should probably ask M about that though. I may be wrong and they'd be equally toast either way.)
