Geez, and it's not even my birthday!

Okay, it's not like I wasn't spoiled all to heck and gone for the final scene of this episode (and I certainly didn't watch it a dozen or so times beforehand, no, not me), but what am I supposed to do with this? Steve spends his make-out time with Catherine watching homicidal Chucky out of the corner of his eye, then spends a romantic chick flick cuddling with Danny while Catherine sits way on the other end of the couch? It's like Show is handing my slash goggles to me and helping me put them on. And if you haven't seen the trailer for the next episode, well, no spoilers from me, but holy crap I cannot wait for next week. It's like Christmas came early!

On the other hand, Five-0 apparently had the dumb today. Did the entire task force really not know all of that stuff about pentagrams? Because I'm pretty sure everyone over the age of 15 does, and not just the ones who watch Supernatural. And you'd think Danny had never cleared a house before the way he kept loudly calling out to Steve and asking him what he was doing while Steve headed upstairs with his duty weapon drawn, instead of, you know, shutting up, drawing his weapon, and covering his partner. But on the plus side, at least Kono pronounced "Samhain" correctly, which is more than can be said for anyone in the Supernatural ep "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester" (every single character in that episode pronounced it "Sam Hane").

In other bzuh? moments:

• Are we really supposed to believe that Kamekona was wearing Steve's tac vest? Because that thing could wrap around Steve twice.

• Doris is on Maui visiting friends? What friends? She's been dead for 20 years. When did she have time to make friends with people on Maui? Or is she just randomly looking up old friends from before to say, "Surprise! Not so much with the dead! Wanna play canasta?"

• I would have found it far more believable that Grace didn't want to go trick-or-treating at a skeevy motel again than that she thought her Danno would rather work than be with her.

• And the most implausible thing? That a house on Oahu would be left to rot for 20 years. In that housing market? No. Seriously. Even if it was completely condemned from the start, a developer could still make a killing razing it and building something else there.

Oh, well. The thing about shiny, shiny slash goggles is that they make it harder to care about the plot holes while you're looking at Steve and Danny snuggling their way through The Notebook.

Is it next week yet? No? How about now? ::bounces::

Yeah I was literally falling on the floor laughing over your Doris comments, cause I didn't even think of it initially. My mind was still boggling over two people, who have been having sex together for years, necking on the couch on Halloween night watching Chucky. Add the abandoned house, pentagrams, and psycho dude living with Grandma-how many cliches can they throw into one episode!

I felt like I was watching Supernatural for most of the episode.

My daughter started watching it with me and while he was getting ready to gank the girl she says "this looks like it's going to get gory. I think I will go now." I said, "Oh hun, it's Hawaii 5-0 not Supernatural it won't be too gross." Of course I had to then say, "Oops my bad, I guess Supernatural is in Hawaii today."
