When a gun that was supposedly used in the assassination of Steve's father is found, it leads to a deep investigation that uncovers some secrets that were kept hidden for a very long time. Although the gun had been found earlier, it was locked up because there was no evidence to tie it to his father's murder. Steve and his team must put together the fragmented pieces of what actually happened some 20 years ago.
As they go down memory lane, they find out that Steve's father, John, had put the gun in a storage unit right before he was killed. The only person John trusted to take care of the gun was a woman by the name of Julia. Steve and his team are able to trace her to a farm in rural Oahu, and as they thought, she still kept the gun after all that time. But Julia was not the only person who knew about the gun, and soon enough it becomes clear there might be other parties involved.
In the meantime, a police officer investigating on the islands goes missing, and Steve and Danny realize there may be a connection between the disappearance and their investigation. The two parallel crimes collide when they discover that the officer had been conducting his own investigation into the weapon, and the authorities suspect that he's fallen into the hands of a group of arms dealers. The dealers have been using the information they gleaned from their investigation to track down the missing weapon and are willing to do whatever it takes to recover it.
As the investigation deepens and they get closer to the truth, it becomes clear that it is not just the gun that is at stake but also the lives of the people they're trying to protect. The situation quickly spirals out of control, leaving Steve and his team to scramble to prevent more harm. The twist and turns in the episode leads to a gripping finale with the team racing against time to solve the mystery and outsmart the villains.
