Let’s pic(k) Steve!

Episode 9.22

Alex O’Loughlin appreciation post.

I was blown away by the last scenes of this episode. That was stellar acting by Kimee Balmilero and Alex O’Loughlin. This is what you get when you don’t catch the actors acting. Real acting is impossible to spot. And then it makes you feel something.

Steve has been through so much, suffered so much, almost his whole life consisting of pain, loss and struggle. And yet he remains such a warmhearted, empathic, giving, altruistic human. He is there for all the people who are in need of a shoulder to lean on.

And we buy it. We KNOW that Steve is this Steve, we KNOW that he is this remarkable man because of AOL. I can’t repeat it often enough. It’s not in the words, it’s in the play. Being emotional is not acting – but expressing emotions is. Alexpressions.

I never liked Mary, so, I couldn’t care less. One question, where is Joanie? Did they come to their senses and took the kid away from her?

Let’s pic(k) McPickles!

Episode 9.21 or

♥ What’s new pussycat whoa
What’s new pussycat whoa oh oh
Pussycat, pussycat, you’re so thrilling
And I’m so willing to care for you ♥

I loved the scenes with Steve and Mr. Pickles. Again, Steve was the only one who cared. I hope he keeps him until Weed-Guy can take over. We all know that Eddie can do no harm.

Enjoy, but you might discover that I was tremendously pi//ed after this episode.

9.20 Review

H50-920-009

9.20 Ke ala o ka pu

First of all, let me thank you for still sticking around. I know we haven’t been the most productive lately. But it’s not due to lack of interest, it’s just because of too little time. There is a lot going on in our lives, and as you all know, real life comes first.

So, here is another review, but it, again, lacks pictures. But LeiCa already provided us with great screenshots. And you can always head over to IntenseStudy; they did a great job with Steve in this episode.

Without further ado, here is our little review for 9.20. Is it twenty episodes already? Unbelievable.

Let’s pic(k) Steve!

Episode 9.20

I loved the Steve/Duke/John storyline. Duke’s the last man standing who knew Steve’s Dad and it is wonderful that Duke shared his memories about Steve’s father and vice versa. Dennis Chun and Alex are amazing together (and on their own too, of course) and I would love to get more McDuke!

The transitions from Steve to Stevie and back where very well done! Kudos!

“O ke kumu, o ka māna, ho‘opuka ‘ia” – While Adam investigates the murder of an undercover FBI agent about to wed the daughter of a Yakuza leader, Noelani is held hostage and forced, along with her mentor Dr. Chu (Page Leong), to operate at gunpoint on a criminal, on HAWAII FIVE-0, Friday, April 26 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

(“O ke kumu, o ka māna, ho‘opuka ‘ia” is Hawaiian for “The Teacher, the Pupil – Let it come forth”)

OK, again, what is Adam’s qualification to be a Special Task Force member? None needed? Got it. Now he is investigating a murder? OK, I give up on any kind of logic.
