I have to agree with the previous poster - this is one of my favorite episodes. Really loved the Monopoly cards; the last one, from McGarrett was the best. Also loved the last scene for the fact that the culprit heard the helicopter which added to his sense of urgency, but that was not how he was actually caught. All to be expected given the lead in to the conclusion, but still done really well.
The music in this episode also added a certain ambiance not found in most other episodes. Rather than being edgy and hardcore (which is normally an important part of Hawaii 5-0, and not to be dismissed lightly), this episode was all about "cool". Which is another way this episode was set apart from the others. Not that I would want all H50 episodes to be like it, just that the contrast was great and the acting was first rate.
