Summary: Danny spots a group carrying guns at a high school football game. He hustles his daughter, Grace, to safety and alerts McGarrett, who is at the game with the rest of the team. Unfortunately, a gunfight breaks out, two of the gunmen are dead, and six innocents are injured. Chin chases one of the Samoan gang members, but lets him go; turns out, he’s a cousin of Chin's, Sid, who has gone into deep cover with the gang. They've been an escalating gang-war between the Triads and the Samoans and this latest attack was retaliation by the Triads for a number of recent Samoan hits. McGarrett and Danny figure out that the New Jersey mob has armed the Samoans, to provide security, so the mob can expand their gambling operations. There’s a casino that night and with Sid's help, McGarrett, Danny and Kono go under cover and get evidence to stop the mob boss from moving in. Danny’s ex-wife threatens to cut off Danny’s custody rights. McGarrett gets the Governor to use her influence with the ex-wife’s new husband to prevent that from happening. The team gets their name: Five-0 Discuss The Episode...

I liked the opening scene, seeing Five-O hanging out for the high school football game. It was a chance to see how they interact without the pressure of work, and I loved it - especially because you got to see Danny and his relationship with his daughter.
This is the episode when you learn how much poor Chin has had to sacrifice because of what Internal Affairs accused him of - and how Kono stood by him when the rest of his family were ready to turn their backs on him.
Then there's the scene where Danny goes to visit Rachel in a bid to get her to change her mind about taking him back to court over custody. As a mother my heart broke for him, pouring his feelings out over an intercom and she changes her mind. It's not until he returns to Five-O HQ that we realise McGarrett sent the Governor to Rachel's address because he heard that Step Stan needed planning permission for his latest project - and used it to his advantage, getting her to drop the court case. That's how we know Steve cares about his partner.
