Joseph Sirola: Jonathan Kaye

Quotes 

• Jonathan Kaye : [Reading report]  How clean a job was it, Steve?

  Det. Steve McGarrett : I'd say it was a very well-planned hit... A half hour before dawn. The dogs were drugged by darts... The kind fired from an air rifle. The GI's were shot to death, point-blank range.

• Jonathan Kaye : We're in big trouble, Steve.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : What was stolen, Jonathan?

  Jonathan Kaye : A device... A prototype for an ICBM guidance system.

• Jonathan Kaye : That device has to be recovered, and quickly.

• Det. Steve McGarrett : [after Wo Fat departs]  You sold me out, Jonathan... YOU SOLD ME OUT!

  Jonathan Kaye : Wait a minute, Steve... Believe me, there was no choice.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : THAT I CANNOT ACCEPT!

  Jonathan Kaye : All right, Steve... You're entitled... There was a U2 incident.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : That was under Eisenhower!

  Jonathan Kaye : Not this one... This was three years ago over China. Only this time, no one banged a shoe on a table... This time the Chinese just took the pilot and threw him into an isolation cell. And they kept him there for three years, incommunicado... Now, Steve, we tried every formal negotion there is. They wouldn't even discuss it... Until today.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : They're exchanging that pilot for Wo Fat?

  Jonathan Kaye : That's right... Captain Ruassell Kempton is on his way home, Steve, today... You made it possible.

  [Jonathan departs, and Steve throws Wo Fat's passport] 

• Jonathan Kaye : [Wo Fat is being released]  Wo Fat is being returned to his government... The decision is firm.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : Jonathan, this man is a murderer... There's a string of a dozen bodies tied to him!

  Jonathan Kaye : Steve, I know that as well as you do... The decision is still irrevocable.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : What do you mean it's "irrevocable"?... He committed crimes, capital crimes... This is my jurisdiction... Why is it irrevocable?

  Wo Fat : [With a smile]  Mr. Kaye will explain as soon as I've left.

• Jonathan Kaye : [to Steve]  There's one small comfort to sleep on. The guidance device hasn't shown up anywhere else... The odds are it's still on the island.

• Jonathan Kaye : There's a plane waiting to take Mr. Wo Fat to Hong Kong, Steve.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : There's a What?

  [Steve is becoming enraged] 

• Jonathan Kaye : There;s a plane waiting to take Mr. Wo Fat to Hong Kong.

  Det. Steve McGarrett : [Rage building up]  There's a what?
