- Det. Steve McGarrett: [McGarrett arrives for work,finds an envelope with a key and receives his first call from "Mona"] Hello.
- Cameron: Morning, Steve... Did you get the note I sent you?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah, I just got it... Who is this?
- Cameron: Funny you should ask. I'm an anonymous caller... Got your tape recorder going yet?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah.
- Cameron: Curious how I got your present number?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah, how did you get it?
- Cameron: I was in your office, and copied it down... No big thing, easy... Anyhow, why I called is to find out if you know what that key fits.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: No, I don't... Do you wanna tell me?
- Cameron: I'm a sport... But you're such a big detective, I want you to dazzle me with your brilliant powers of deduction... I want you to figure out whose door the magic key fits.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Why is that?
- Cameron: Because I'm gonna kill him... Listen, while I got you on the phone, call Eddie at the Advertiser and ask him to read you Mona's letter... That's about it, Steve. So long. See you later.
- [Mona hangs up]
- Det. Steve McGarrett: ["Mona" calls Steve in his office] McGarrett.
- Cameron: Hello, Steve, do you think you can foul me up by holding the story back from the press?... There's no way! I can send them all the story... I'm gonna be in the evening papers and all over the TV news tonight... How do you like that, hot shot?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: I don't
- Cameron: Well, that's tragic, but people have a right to know the news... And just because you're screwing up is no reason to hold out on them is it?... When the governor drops, everybody should know how bad you blew it, right?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Right... What are you hung up on?
- Cameron: Dumbness!
- Det. Steve McGarrett: But you're smart.
- Cameron: I know you got an automatic trace going on any calls on this line, Steve... You're not gonna stall me until a blue-and-white gets here.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Well, I was just trying to let you down easy because you're not so smart after all.
- Cameron: That's why I'm already apprehended, right?... Get off it, dummy. You'll never find me unless I want to be found. I'm gonna tell you why, Steve... You got two bad habits. You think you got brains... That's one. And second... Forget it, it wouldn't help.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: No, tell me... Or are you worried that HPD is moving in on you right now?
- Cameron: I'm not stupid!... It's you that's stupid. But that doesn't stop you, does it?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Stop me from what?
- Cameron: Playing judge! Tin idol!... Judging better men than you are!
- ["Mona" hangs up]
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve is discussing protecting the governor] What good is a dead governor, Sir?
- Governor: What good is a governor who concedes to threats?
- Chin Ho: [to Steve after his wife gets a note from Cameron] I just want to get a hand on that maniac.
- Danny Williams: [Talking about the phone call Steve received] Steve, you don't think this could be a crank call, do you?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Oh, how many cranks could walk in here and plant that book in my desk?... No, Danno, no... This is no crank.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve's private line rings, and he addresses his men] It's my private line... It could be our boy again... I'll try to hold him off for as long as I can.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to the governor when he finds out Cameron is out to kill him] Sir, if I had another thousand men and a month more to prepare, I couldn't begin to cover you for that parade.
- Governor: [McGarrett and the governor are discussing Cameron's record] Just out of curiosity, what kind of record did he have in other areas?... Was there a giveaway?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: You could cut your finger on the creases of his trousers... Fifth in his class at the academy, first in marksmanship.
- Governor: That's not a comforting thought.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: It wasn't meant to be, sir.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [McGarrett is discussing Cameron with the governor] I'll deal the cards straight up. If Cameron gets a shot at you, he'll hit you... There's no question.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Kono has been shot, and is on his way to the hospital] Some guys will do anything to get Kamehameha Day off.
- [Last lines]
- Cameron: [Steve and Dan find a note in the trunk of Dan's car, along with dead fish] "YOU STINK WORSE, DUMMY"
- [In Cameron's voice]
- Cameron: [Cameron is on the phone with Steve] So, how close are you to nailing me?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: You'll know that when I put my hand on your shoulder.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve is talking to Cameron on the phone] Are you ready to tell me who the target is yet?
- Cameron: Maybe... Could be Danny... Have you checked the trunk of his car yet?
- Danny Williams: [Dan, Chin and Kono are discussing "Mona's" motives] What would you do if you put yourself in somebody's place who wanted to hurt you?... I mean really put you through torture? What would you do?... In their place, I wouldn't kill you... It's too easy, too fast. But what happens to you if I kill the governor?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah... Yeah, a lot of things go down the drain... Five-O's reputation, mine.
- Danny Williams: Because you were personally responsible for the governor's safety.
- Cameron: [to Steve after he has been shot, and is dying] You mean I went through all of this for nothing?
- [He dies]
- Governor: [Steve and the Governor are discussing Cameron] I don't even know who Cameron is.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: He was an H.P.D. patrolman brought before a review board, a citizen's complaint... Roughing up a juvenile suspect, GTA... The kid turned out to own the car, the boy's father brought the complaint. H.P.D. asked us to investigate, we did... We turned up seven other instances of brutal treatment of suspects had never been reported. A gambler, a couple of prostitutes, little people who couldn't fight back... I sat on the review board, I recommended dismissal... He was.
- Governor: And he doesn't think he should have been... Therefore he shoots me and ruins you.
