Milius (Enver Gjokaj) returns to Hawaii to ask for Tennant‘s (Vanessa Lachey) help in protecting an important witness (Anna Grace Barlow) who becomes a pain in the ass for both Jesse (Noah Mills) and Kai (Alex Tarrant). Milius also plays into the episode’s B-story when it’s revealed he is the officer that helped Tennant’s son Alex (Kian Talan) get into the Naval Academy. “Money Honey” follows the basic template of the uncooperative witness while also teasing some chemistry between Kai and Adriana, who eventually steps up and puts herself in danger to take down the arms dealer.
