Skinhead

Skinhead. Episode 90, season 4. Original air date: 2/1/72.

I saw the ending of this episode a long time ago: McGarrett's great closing remarks, "A man? Do you even know what that means?"

Started out all 70s kooky--a big shindig with jumpy cameras and close-ups of hot-pants--but turns into one of the heaviest of all H50 episodes, replete with a Law and Order like insight into the cruelty of cross-examinations.

Highlight: Kono going after the Skinhead for his racial crack.
