I am having A DAY.
Mar. 15th, 2011 02:13 pmA very long, very annoying day. But rather than wallow in the horror, I will instead wallow in the wonder that was last night's H50 repeat - 1.11, otherwise known as The One Where They Bicker A Serial Killer To Death. (thank you,
lamardeuse). It's also the ep that made me fall in love with Steve and Danny, so I think it deserves another look, yes?
First off:

HI STEVE. HOW'S THE FISHING?
BTW, do you think Danny knows that Steve goes spear fishing? Think he'll try and take Danny spear fishing on their next date? I think Danny would totally go for it, you know?
And then Steve and Danny have a heartfelt discussion in the car, which ends with them making EYES OF LOVE at each other.


No, really, those are EYES OF LOVE.
Also? Steve thinks Danny has Sexy Eyes. Trufax. I heard it in a song.
Then Steve shows off his Neanderthal ways by kicking in a door, because that's how superSEALs woo their man.



Steve has no idea why this didn't work. Shouldn't Danny be swooning at his feet by now?

BTW, Steve has eyelashes. Pretty pretty eyelashes. For a neanderthal.

Also? Steve buys Danny flowers, which Danny refuses to wear at first. But he does, eventually, because he can never say no to Steve. Oh, hey Steve, I think you might want to rethink the cruise you were planning for the honeymoon. I don't think it's really Danny's scene. Just a suspicion I have.

Steve continues to woo Danny by showing off his top-notch driving skills. Which gets Danny rather excited. Maybe not in the way Steve intended though.

In between all this wooing, they take down the suspect (oh right, there's a case, isn't there?) like the Professional Law Enforcement Professionals they are.

Er, sort of. But they get the guy in the end.

And so does Steve. Somehow.
And then they go home and get naked and have a much better day than I am having right now.
The end.

Date: 2011-03-15 07:36 pm (UTC)DAYs suck! What is that all about?!? Everything is fine then suddenly everything is Annoying and Icky. :(
Still, you're right. H5O makes it better, doesn't it? So cute! So hot! Eyes! naked chests! How can you not feel better looking at that? And thinking about it, too. :D

Date: 2011-03-15 08:44 pm (UTC)It started off sucky and just went downhill from there, you know? I think my shoulders are permanently hunched up around my ears. Although I do feel better now that I'm back home, where the pets are. :D
H50 helps a LOT. So adorable and cute and goofy! Steve, so in love! Danny, so bemused by Steve's love!

Date: 2011-03-15 07:38 pm (UTC)AND THE FLOWERS. I am seriously not ever getting over the flowers and the way Danny clamped onto Steve's arm and held on as they bickered their way through the ship. Just. HEARTS.
I am with you on this day being too long and stupid and annoying. Here's hoping yours improves soon. ♥

Date: 2011-03-15 08:47 pm (UTC)I remember watching the scene with the flowers and thinking 'really? Is Danny really hanging onto Steve's arm like that'? Then I rewound and oh yes, he's hanging onto Steve's arm. Being ridiculously adorable.
I think we should call today done with and move on tomorrow, yes? ::hugs you::

Date: 2011-03-15 11:48 pm (UTC)I know! He did! He rocks a lot of scenes.
You know how people say Joe Flanigan was born to play the role of John Sheppard? Well, I think Alex O'Loughlin was born to play Steve McGarrett. It is HIS, he OWNS it and he truly lives in the character.
Is Danny really hanging onto Steve's arm like that'? Then I rewound and oh yes, he's hanging onto Steve's arm.
OMG HOW COULD I NOT HAVE NOTICED THIS??? *rushes to rewind and watch again*
no subject
Date: 2011-03-16 12:45 am (UTC)Oh yes, I agree. He plays it with such a nice balance of bad ass and warm fuzzy goof, it's really a delight to watch him. Danny is the showier character, but Alex is doing a lot with McGarrett.
The arm hanging thing was too cute, wasn't it?

Date: 2011-03-15 08:51 pm (UTC)It really is a fun show, with some really good character stuff going on. And yes, they pretty much do bicker the bad guy to death. You should watch! You can fit in both shows over the summer, right?

Date: 2011-03-15 11:40 pm (UTC)They really do bicker a serial killer to death, don't they? Oh god, I love it. I love them.
I'm so sorry you've had such a bad day, but glad that (after reading the comments), you are home now and cuddling with some furry friends.
I'm dealing with crap at work too, and sometimes it really gets to me. I'm so glad we have this great show and this fantastic fandom to come loose ourselves in for a little while.
Alex, Scott, and you ROCK!!
*smush*

Date: 2011-03-16 12:50 am (UTC)I'm glad you enjoyed the pics, god, I just love this ep, despite, you know, the serial killer stuff.
I really want an ep, like Scott suggested, where there's no case. Just the team, doing...stuff. I'd watch the hell out of that one.
Hope things get better soon, sweetie!
