- Det. Steve McGarrett: And the Navy will fight back... I won't. Mrs. Mala, unless there's no other way.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Mrs. Mala] The state of Hawaii has no capital punishment... The Navy does.

- Det. Steve McGarrett: That'll be the day.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Dan] My friend, John Mala, just overpowered two guards, and grabbed himself a loaded .38... And he's out on the town.
- Sue Waters: [to McGarrett] If you saw your best friend shot down before your eyes, then maybe you'd understand how Walt felt!
- Carl Anderson: [to McGarrett] He blundered in here... He has ammunition, and he's AWOL... This is where he's gonna make his stand!
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Commander Anderson] When I was in the Navy, they taught us that an officer's job was to take the objective with minimal cost... Now, have they changed the rules?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Commander Anderson] Are you gonna give up 10 of your men to take one that might have been talked down?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [trying to get John to surrender] John... There's a whole squadron of SP's down there... And they're aching to get at you!

- Danny: [Steve comes into his office all dirty] Steve, what happened to you?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: I ran into a rhino.

- John Mala: I'll take whatever the Navy dishes out... And come up grinning.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: The Navy dishes out nothing... You get out what you put into it.
