Other than the new case, the show will also tackle about love and romance. A promo video featured Hawaii's finest talking about their preparations for Valentine's Day.
"Romance is in the air!" Steve (Alex O'Loughlin) spoke with Danny (Scott Caan).
"No, romance is not in the air," Danny replied in a mocking manner.
Also included in the footage are some gut-wrenching action scenes with hostage-takings and explosions involving Abdi's character.
"You think I'm a monster?" the warlord said while pointing a gun towards a woman's head.
A full synopsis for this week's episode was posted on The Futon Critic and it reads:
"When a journalist is killed, Five-0 must use his past reporting to hunt down a presumed dead Congolese warlord who is alive and well living on Oahu. Also, as Valentine's Day approaches, Danny overreacts when Grace's texts to a boy start accidently coming up on his cell phone."
