and we'll move on from there.

Okay.

And welcome back.

Killed it.

Oahu traffic, Seneca 128.

Alpha-Romeo over Rabbit Island,

2000 feet.

Our appointment

with the sovereign king...

...and the head of the state of Hawaii,

Dennis "Bumpy" Kanahele, was rejected.

He's a fierce man, sir. He's a descendant

of King Kamehameha the Great.

I know Bumpy.

I helped him get elected.

We've all worked together before.

And you don't have to call me "sir."

Sir, I will also be an invaluable addition

to our joint mission.

I am a quarter Hawaiian.

Call me "sir."

The Royal Aloha. Mm.

Careful on those steps.

- I see them.

- I know about the leg.

Sir, I'd love to get a beverage.

Or a peppermint tea.

And discuss...all kinds of stuff.

The sky. The future. Yeah.

Everything.

- I'm a peppermint tea girl.

- You have a good time.

- I meant with you.

- Captain Ring, I--

It's Ng. It's like "ring,"

but without the R or the I.

It's just Ng. It's short.

Short. Short's good.

Small talk and conversation, Ng.

There's no time for it.

You are never going to offend me

by being blunt.

Handful of words, boiled down.

No more than five.

One, two, three, four--

- Five. Yeah.

- There you go.

Let this be our longest conversation.

Good evening, captain.

Warmest aloha, sir.

Okay, let's talk about Gilcrest.

So finally we meet, right?

This is a great story.

This is good. Yeah.

So much paperwork on this guy.

A surprising amount of paperwork.

Flirting with Pakistani princesses.

Yeah, yeah.

Something with the daughter

of Princess Hafa El Yassein.

- He got married and divorced...

- I lived a full life.

...from a fake heiress.

Oh, yeah. Homegirl took him down.

But before that all came apart,

there was greatness in this guy.

Oh, now you're gonna compliment me?

He's got kind of...

...like a chilly presence.

Like, you look into his eyes

and it's miles of blue.

He's just a brilliant...

...compelling, innovative...

...commanding...

Stop it.

...fricking wreck of a guy.

He's like a...

A sad city coyote.

You know?

- Okay. I love you too, Mom.

- Wow. A great relation with your mother.

Hey, look up at 10:37 tonight because

there is a Jupiter-moon conjunction...

...that you will not wanna miss.

Okay, good night.

A double espresso.

Morning, sir. I'm so jacked for today.

Make that a triple.

Thank you for the camaraderie, sir.

- I didn't say anything, captain.

- No, it's your manner.

I find your manner very down-to-earth.

You have links to the National

Reconnaissance Office, don't you?

Even if I was NRC), captain,

I couldn't tell you, but I'm not.

You were trained top to bottom...

...on every aspect

of maintaining these birds.
