It was such a beautiful day, Steve was getting up a little bit earlier, he hasn't done that for awhile, & when Danni is out of town, It just doesn't feel right to sleep in a one sided bed, & with cold sheets on top it, Steve sighed, as he got ready for his day, He hopes that something won't ruin it. He needs to at least enjoy a day off, even his lover couldn't join him. He decided to see his new friend, & barber shop owner, Odell Martin, for a,haircut, & a shave.
Meanwhile, Danni was lost with herself without Steve around, She missed him, & knew that he understood why she needed to have this time away for herself, Also she knew that Grace missed him too, & wanted to call him, but the security detail at the rectangular, that the seal organized, thought it was a bad idea. But, Danni promised her that she & Steve will have time spend time together, when they get back together. She decided to be more spontaneous, & enjoying her time off.
Odell, in the meantime, was talking to Steve about culture, & traditions, Steve couldn't stop thinking about his mother, & how she helped out saving Chin, & Danny. Then, Odell put the finishing touches on his work, & they talked about the possibility of getting Danni in there, so she could get her hair cut. They were enjoying the other's company, when all of a sudden, a scared kid comes in, & was bleeding from a gunshot wound to the leg, Steve realized that they are screwed, & trapped in the barber shop.
They secured the kid, & themselves further in the shop, & Odell went & closed the gate, without being discovered by the assassins, who want to kill the kid. Steve & Odell were trying to figure a way out of there, & Steve took out the killers. They told him, who put the hit on the kid, & Steve managed to get to his truck, got his gun, & handed a back up to his friend, & told him where to go with Eran, & not stop for anything, & he went to talk to Eran's father, & see why he wants his son dead. Greg Dobrian had some very interesting things to tell about his son.
Odell ended up getting out smarted by Eran, who took him hostage, & to the arena, Steve & some officers overtook him, & Odell managed to head butt him, & escape while the seal shot him, & they had a talk about what just happened. Then, Steve went to see Greg Dobrian, & he actually thanked the Five-O Commander for killing his son, & he went to their house, & where Greg directed him to go to, Steve slowly went down the basement, & unlocked the door, with the key that Greg gave him, & was shocked at the evidence, that the gangster told him that he would find.
He found the photos of the innocent victims, children, that are younger than Grace. He flipped them, & the tears were coming, as he flipped through them. He stopped, & lets out a gut wrenching sob, & took a couple of minutes to mourn. He composed himself, & went outside, & let Duke & his guys take over, He found privacy in his trademark silverado, & the crying started again, Once again, He had control of himself, He made an emergency appointment with Dr. Patterson, cause he need to really cleanse himself thoroughly, if he needs to get on with his life.
Dr. Patterson was surprised to see Steve, & how wrecked he looked, & she was feeling sorry for him, & asked, "Tough week ?", & he said, "You could say that", & he really felt tired after what he went through, & he lets out some sobs, she handed him a tissue, & he composed himself. The Seal told her what he witnessed, & about the case. "How can I get over it ?", he asked miserably, The Good Doctor simply said, "You keep doing what you are doing, Making a difference, Don't let those bastards win". Steve nodded, & felt better, They went through everything else he was feeling, He thanked her, & paid for the session, The Five-O Commander went driving aimlessly, til he reached his destination.
Danni was just relaxing, as she watched Grace having fun among the waves, & suddenly, she had a bad feeling that something is wrong with her super seal, she just knows it. She was thinking about calling him, but then decided that everything is fine, & she is not gonna drive herself crazy, & worry so much, like she used to about her lover. She wants Steve to feel like she can trust him, & he could come to her for anything at all, anything, without hesitation.
Steve made it, just before it got dark, & he was wondering if Danni would be upset, if he crashed her vacation, He nodded to the security detail, as they cleared, & got out of his way, as he drove up to the house. He suddenly felt guilty about ruining his lover's time with her daughter, but he had nowhere to go, He decided to brave the consequences, & knocked on the door, Danni opened it up, & smiled at him, "Danni", he choked out. She embraced him, &,comforted him, reassuring,him that everything is still great in the world, They made love, & it was beautiful, just reassure the other, That they are both alive, & survivors, He felt better, & spent the rest of the time with her, & Grace.
Odell was trying to put the pieces of his shop back together, & he was miserable, & knew it would take it another six months to rebuild, but he was up for the challenge, & he knew that this neighborhood needs some good business, & he was gonna give it to them. When he saw Steve, he said, "Welcome, Commander, What brings you by ?", Steve shrugged, & said, "I thought you would need help, & a friend", Without further speaking, they went to work on rebuilding the barber shop.
