Season's Penultimate Episode Puts Danny in Danger (Spoiler)

As shows head toward their season finales, big moments are coming up, and Hawaii Five-0 is no exception. During May sweeps, the CBS drama will be putting one of their own in the hospital. What happens and how serious is it?

Possible bio-terrorism threat

In the penultimate episode of the season, Ua Hiki Mai Kapalena Pau, airing May 9, they continue their mission to take down Wo Fat: "With the invaluable information that was shared by Agent Jenna Kaye, Five-0 is closer than ever to capturing Wo Fat. Their mission takes an abrupt turn, however, when Danny is exposed to a lethal neurological agent that presents an even greater threat: bio-terrorism on the island." An interesting note is the episode's title means "Until the End is Near." That doesn't sound good for Danny (Scott Caan), but luckily, Peter Lenkov reassures fans: "I wouldn't say it sidelines him for too long, but it does sideline him." He's described as "down for the count" after the exposure, so it sounds like the others will have to solve this case without his help as he rests, as opposed to him doing some work from the hospital.

Danny obviously feels much better by the finale, airing May 16, because "he's ready for action again" when that rolls around. This isn't the first time Danny has been injured on Hawaii Five-0; early on, he wound up walking around with a cane after re-injuring his knee (which he blamed on Alex O'Loughlin's Steve McGarrett).

Executive producers tease 'shocking' season finale (Spoiler)

The first season of the reboot of the drama Hawaii Five-0 is coming to a close soon, and fans are eagerly waiting to see just what will happen with Wo Fat and the Five-0s. They'll have to say goodbye to one character, as someone will be killed off.

"Oia'i'o"

"When Five-0 gets too close to the truth about Wo Fat and his associates, the criminal mastermind retaliates by trying to destroy the team. They've always played by their own rules, but when the Governor can no longer protect them, it's time for Five-0 to pay the consequences of their actions."

In the season finale whose title means "Trust," it sounds like those consequences are going to have to do with one character losing their life. But who will it be? The executive producers of Hawaii Five-0 aren't giving any clues of the "bold," "shocking" exit. According to Peter Lenkov, "There are a lot of theories but I think they're going to be shocked because no one has hit it yet. We didn't really show the cast or anybody what we had planned. When they started getting those pages, I think they were completely shocked by what we were doing. Happy - but shocked." What could this episode hold that leaves the cast "happy" when death is coming?

Jenna Kaye (Larisa Oleynik) will be returning for the final episodes of the season, and with the possibility of her becoming a series regular next season, it seems like she could be safe, unless they've changed their plans.
