"Yo." Danny said walking into Steve's house carrying a package that was on the front stoop.

"Yo." Steve smiled, "What happened to the courtesy knock?"

"Got played out with the high fives and bro hug. Want me to do it now?" Danny said knocking on the wall. "Happy?"

"What's in the box?"

"Got you a present."

"You got me a present?"

"Yeah, wanted to put a smile on your face."

"Really?"

"Nah, UPS left it for you. Know anyone in Bettendorf Iowa?"

"Yeah, finally!" Steve said taking the box from Danny.

"So what is it?" Danny asked following Steve into the other room.

"I've been looking for a master cylinder for my dads car."

"That piece of junk in the garage?"

"Hey, all right, that piece of junk in the garage was my dads pride and joy...and he got it for us to fix up together...we just never got around to it."

"You thinking about getting it started again?"

"Yeah...I'm doing okay too. Found this place in Iowa that do parts for Mercury Marquis, so, you know..."

"Man. I'm no gear head but that does not look like a master cylinder to me."

"Yeah. That's because it's a clutch plate." Steve said rummaging around on the desk, "do me a favor, am I crazy or does thing say 1974 master cylinder..."

"You bought it online?"

"Yeah I bought...Why?"

"What are you a schmuck? What's the matter with you? You don't order anything on the internet."

"You still upset about your Christmas tree?" Steve smirked.

"So what if I am."

"Danny it's the 21st century."

"Says the guy with no master cylinder."

"Alright you got a point." He said as he pulled out his ringing phone, "McGarrett."

Five minutes later the two were getting into it about CHiPs as they pulled up to a car crash. They quickly transitioned from crash to a murder of a John Doe to have two John Doe's and Danny's take away was, "Of course you recognize a name in Mandarin. How many languages do you speak Super SEAL?"

As Steve and Danny drove through China Town he pulled over when he saw an older car at a shop. Talking briefly with the older man they quickly discovered the name of the accident victim...but still had no idea who Jack was. And Danny hated that Steve had formed a connection to the old man and child.

As they bickered back and forth Danny understood why Steve turned into a softy, why he connected to others who had lost loved ones...he had been on the other side. Danny wasn't trying to convince him that Han was guilty of murder, he was simply trying to keep his partner focused.

It took about thirty seconds for Steve and Danny to recognize that the victims father in law was hiding something. Finding out that the poor mans daughter had her own husband killed and was waiting at the airport for her idiot boyfriend with her own fathers ransom money...it was all too much for Steve. He quickly left, calling the governor as he walked out of the airport.

Danny had a feeling he knew what Steve was up to, and when he checked the GPS on Steve's phone he knew he was right. "CHiPs at the office. We have food." Danny sent in a text. The PTSD was going to be hard for his friend and going home was not going to be in the cards.

Kono joined the Partners for a couple episodes along with Chin but neither stayed long. "You made the Governor grant them citizenship didn't you." Danny said once they were alone.

"Not in the mood for a lecture Daniel." Steve glared.

"Wasn't gonna give one Stevie." He said trying to get his partner to relax.

"How could someone fake their own abduction?"

"Some people are sick."

"Its Hard."

"I know."

"Can I stay..."

"You really think you need to ask me that Steven?"

"I'm glad you were the one investigating my fathers murder."

"You want to watch one more Estrada?" Danny asked as Steve finally relaxed back into the couch.

"Yeah, one more would be good." He answered with a smile.
