- Che Fong: [Che and Steve are figuring out how the cargo ring operates] I see what you're doing... They get their messages, and we've got our copy.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Right... You make voice prints of all those spotters... They'll be our fingerprints.
- Che Fong: Very clever... And you're not even Chinese.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Chin is counting the money in Eric's safe deposit box] What's the count?
- Chin Ho: Oh, very nice nest egg... Two hundred eighty thousand.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: The richest man in the cemetary, huh?
- Cook: [Steve is investigating Jerry's death] Jerry was working undercover.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: On what?
- Cook: The air cargo ring.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: You told me that was a nickel and dimes operation.
- Cook: It was big... It got bigger than you know.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [McGarrett hands Kono a file just received from Cook] Kono, this is your bible. Put together a boiler room with HPD. Everybody on this list gets a thorough going over.
- Kono: What are we looking for?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Who's in debt, whose wife is sick, Who's losing his shirt gambling, Who's stashing a chick... The usual.
- Kono: Boy, that's some fishing expedition.
- Danny Williams: [Eric's body arrives in Honolulu] Cheaper by the dozen, Arnold... Chalk up another murder for the ring.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Awaiting a report from Kono] Okay, Kono... What has your boiler room come up with.
- Kono: Four alcoholics, three adulterers, and one ex-bookie.
- Grayson: What will happen to whoever killed my Joanna?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: That's up to the courts.
- Grayson: Oh yes, the courts... Delays, appeals, years, and nothing... It's a stupid ritual, useless and stupid.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Sullivan] You're under arrest.
- Sullivan: Your noble act just destroyed all the evidence.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: You're looking at two eyewitnesses who just saw you receive stolen property, but that's only the kickoff... We've got you on manslaughter and murder... Book him, Danno.
- Sullivan: Rhetoric, Mr. McGarrett!
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Don't bet on it!... From what I know of John Malcolm, He'd be glad to trade his life for yours.
- [Last lines]
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Discussing how he is going to catch the cargo ring] Those bloodsuckers who run that cargo ring find out who's vulnerable, and uses them... We're going down the same ratholes.
