Blind Tiger***1/2 Original air date: 12/31/69
Marion ("Happy Days") Ross gives an top-notch performance as the no-nonsense Nurse Edith Lavallo who is assigned to care for McGarrett after he's injured and blinded in a car bomb explosion. McGarrett, being very stubborn, wants to return to his office, and Lavallo makes him get dressed by himself (a shot of bare-chested Jack Lord which also reveals Lord shaved his underarm hair) and forces him to try and make his way out of the hospital totally on his own. (Of course, he doesn't succeed.) He sarcastically refers to her as "Florence Nightingale" and doesn't want to end up with a "tin cup and dark glasses." Robert Edwards plays the psycho villain Masterson, who wears glasses with Coke-bottle lenses. Harry Endo puts in his first appearance as Che Fong, whose explanation of the bomb mechanism, made from tubular steel taken from the "Westphalian Oberlin Car" (presumably a euphemism for Volkswagen) is not totally convincing. "Doctor Freeman" is paged in the hospital. At the beginning, the Governor pays a visit to the Five-O office to celebrate McGarrett's birthday along with the Five-O crew. There's ominous foreshadowing when McGarrett shakes one of his presents, asking, "It won't explode, will it?" The Governor points out that they discovered two different birthdays for McGarrett, a year apart. Sounds like Jack Lord himself!
--------------------------------------------
Auf McGarrett wird ein Sprengstoffattentat verbt. Dabei verliert der Chef des "Hawaii 5 - 0"-Teams sein Augenlicht. Whrend sich die rzte und besonders Schwester Lavallo um McGarrett kmmern, knnen die Kollegen von "Hawaii 5 - 0" den Attentter schnappen. Nur durch die liebevolle Pflege Schwester Lavallos wird McGarrett schlielich wieder ganz gesund. Doch als er seine Sehkraft wiedergewonnen hat, gibt sich Schwester Lavallo nicht zu erkennen.
