Hawaii Five-0 season 8 episode 15 spoilers: First look at Vincent Pastore!
The photo above is one of your first looks at Pastore as “Uncle Vito,” a guy who comes with plenty of advice as to help the guys out. Here, he looks to be clearly upset about something — we imagine that he’s not altogether impressed with whatever ragtag operation that Steve and Danny have going on. Hawaii Five-0 season 8 episode 15 is entitled “He pūkoʻa kani ʻāina,” and CarterMatt has the official synopsis for you below:
McGarrett and Danny investigate the murder of a private detective whose client was killed the same way, and Adam sends Jessie (Christine Ko) into a dangerous situation with disastrous consequences. Also, Danny’s uncle, Vito (Vincent Pastore), comes to town to help Danny and McGarrett get their restaurant up and running.
(“He pūkoʻa kani ʻāina” is Hawaiian for “A Coral Reef Strengthens Out into Land”)
Does this sound like fun to anyone else? It certainly feels like it will be, mostly because you’re getting a rather-great guest star and focusing back in on a story that we know that a lot of people out there have really enjoyed. Who doesn’t want to see more of the restaurant, which we’re still referring to as McDanno’s Bar & Grill in our head and in our hearts.

As for the case itself, this episode could be essential in showing just how Adam is doing in his new position leading his special group against organized crime. Steve put him into this position recently after all of the gang activity picked up on the island. While he may be very knowledgeable about some of the operations, that doesn’t mean that he is completely ready to take on some of this added responsibility at the same time. There are going to be plenty of issues that arise for him.
