“Undressing” Steve (No1) – Episode 3:14

Steve’s clothing – The subject of intense discussion by fangirls! I know we are shallow, but who watches for the plot anyway 😉 😉 .

We decided to take a closer look at what we see and discuss it in a little bit more detail. We are starting a series of talks about one of our / your favorite subjects – “Undressing Steve”. We know that Alex looks great in just about anything he wears (or not wear). This is just our commentary to maybe let the wardrobe department rethink what they give this gorgeous creature to wear. Remember, this is all just for fun …….

Episode 3:14 (Hana I Wa ‘Ia)

Timeframe:

  • The entire episode happens during the course of one day.

Requirements:

  • A court appearance
  • A normal days’ police work – running, chasing, flying…. well flying a helicopter of course.

We start of the day with Steve in full dress uniform, attending Danny’s custody hearing (swoon):

314-uniform

FOYeur: Why oh why haven’t we seen this man in uniform more often. It took them 53 episodes to find a reason to put him back in Dress Blues again. We last saw him in it at Meka’s funeral in Mana’o (Episode 1:08). He is a Navy SEAL after all, surely they could have found a reason for him to wear it again earlier – maybe just somewhere in the whole of Season 2! (One quick sidenote – the person who dressed him in this uniform definitely did a far better job, than the person who squeezed him into that tux for Episode 3:11…….just saying  🙂 ).

LaHagela: Lt. Comm. Steven J. McGarrett would never leave the house without a 3 minute shower or having his tie on straight! Ever……This scene with him and Danny and the tie…..simply exists to make the McDanno shippers happy!

FOYeur: I know, the loose tie thing was nice for the script and Steve doesn’t see the use of wearing a tie in Hawaii, but him (Mr Perfect Navy SEAL) wearing his tie that sloppy? It made for a nice scene between him and Danny, but it doesn’t really fit Steve’s character for me.

Next scene with Steve in the Governor office (We don’t see the Governor often enough either…….).

314-gov of

FOYeur: Very casual clothing for a meeting with the Gorvernor……obviously he changed his clothes on his way from the courthouse……WHY?  It would have been great if we could see him in the uniform, meeting with the big guy. They really could have stretched out the beauty of dressed up Steve, for just a little while longer. (Of course all we can think of when seeing him in uniform, is getting him out of it as quickly as possible…..but that is besides the point  😛 ).

LaHagela: Did he change in a phone booth? How did he get changed so quick? Did he wear his cargo’s and t-shirts under his uniform?  I love him in v-necks…love, and glad it is something other than blue….thanks for switching it up wardrobe!!

314-back

FOYeur: I know most of the fangirls love the new white pants. I do not really fancy them that much. I know they look great from the front, hugging his thighs very nicely *sigh*. My problem starts when we get a view from the back….

A ass no-no

FOYeur: And right there is my problem. I am a ass-girl, nice perky tight ass, showing itself of in nice fitting pants…..somehow that moves me deeply. (shallow, I know 😀 ) I definitely do not fancy this, ‘What is going on here?‘ look, that we are getting……

LaHagela:  What is up with the ass in those pants?  His ass is just way to high and tight {{shudder}} for the cut of the rear and the placement of those pockets.  Do you think he looked in the mirror and asked the wardrobe girls “does my ass look fat in these?”

And back at the Five-0 offices:

Modelling Steve....

FOYeur: You see, no complaints of the front view……look how nicely he is modeling for us :smile:. I am wondering about the colour of the shirt they chose for this episode. Can’t recall seeing him in the green/grey shirt this season (I will have to re watch maybe – any excuse is a good one, right?). They did leave out the overshirt for this episode – great!. I am still making up bmy mind about the high-cut v-neck. Is it the best choice for him to wear?

Chasing some villains:

FOYeur: Even doing some rolls on the grass in these white pants seems to leave no marks 😀 . The man surely knows how to keep his pants clean.

At the end of very very long day, after a few chases, raids and hunting Wo-Fat in a helicopter, Steve is enjoying quiet sunset at home with Danny and the Governor:

Goofy Steve

FOYeur: At least the wrinkled pants shows that he must have been wearing them for a whole day.

LaHagela: Did he change his shirt? It looks green now. And this picture is making me giggle because he looks like he’s about to raise his arms and do that goofy (but God damn sexy) dance he does.  Come on Steve/Alex shake that ass for us….you know you want to!

FOYeur: (Giggle) I think it is the deference in lighting that they use for different scenes, that keep changing the colour of the shirt, I saw it happen with the ones Chin is wearing as well this season (Or maybe the wardrobe department, just switches them around from day-to-day when shooting 😀 )

This is us, “Undressing Steve” for this episode of Hawaii Five-0. Please feel free to share your views on the matter  We’ll see you next time, with which ever episode we draw from the hat to review. And remember, it just for fun……..

  5. I am TeamNewWhitePants, though I don’t think they’re perfect. Having had my own discussions about the fit of the pants, we decided it’s because of the size of his bum and thighs the waist is probably a bit too big. As he moves, the pants shift down and then look baggy in the seat. Maybe Alex wanted pants that gave him a little more wiggle room in the crotch area. lol. But there are also times, when he’s standing that the pants fit perfectly and that’s probably just when he has them pulled up to where they should be.

    Really it’s wardrobe being lazy (again) about making sure of the proper wear of the pants. They need to tailor the seat of the pants or bring the waist in a little. Lord knows he still needs the room in the thighs.

    I just love you guys so much. This post just made my day! Thank you!

    The verdict about the white pants is still not in. My favorites are the tan and the gray cargo pants; they are really hard to beat. 😉 Even though I REALLY enjoy the front view of the white one. Sigh.

    I’m sure Steve left his tie like that on purpose to give Danny a distraction. He would NEVER wear his uniform like that. Ever.

    Speaking of uniform, can we please, please get him in Dress Whites? Please?! Of course only because then we would have seen every uniform. That’s the only reason I’m asking for it. 🙂

      So Sam what you are saying is that the untidy tie was “stratigic ops” from Steve – distracting Danno from the problem at hand.
      I like that solution it somehow makes me feel better about the tie thing. 🙂

      Definitely those whites need to make an appearance soon. I think it would have been perfect for Epi 3:11 (better than the tux) – it would have given more of “An Officer and a Gentleman” feeling to the scene.

  7. so true for the tie, LaHagela – it’s just for the McDao shippers, as so many things in this season (yuck!, btw).
    And white pants – it seems to me that they are at least one size bigger than the rest of the pants for Steve
    So, one more perfect article from you, girls – keep it up!

      I does look as if the white pants are a bit bigger.
      We will investigate as we move onto other episodes with same pants and different colours. Maybe we see the faults with the white pants easier than with the others? Just as we see the good stuff better with the white pants as with the other.

    I love you guys for making every day special with some very nice new pics and perfect comments! I’m an addict, on the AOL drug;-)! For me, the polo shirts are my fav, any color it doesn’t matter! With pants I’d vote for the grey cargo (the season 3 new cargo style beats everything! Thight everywhere!

    Just to clairify, I have no issue with the McDanno shippers. I actually think it’s kinda cool that TPTB know that there is a part of the fandom that is into that, and they throw them a little something in almost every episode.  Gotta play to your audience.
    Now if only that part of the fandom that wants nearly nude McG would get their wish on a weekly basis (whilst not in a scene pandering to the McDanno shippers) that would be awesome to….damn
    network TV and their rules about nudity and cursing. 
    To bad the show isn’t on FX……cos’ The Shield was on FX…and you all know what memorable moment that show provided us Alex fans with.

    • I decided that his seatbelt is what messed up his tie… on the drive over to the courthouse… of course no one thinks McG can’t put his tie on straight, SEALs are all about attention to details. It was perfect when he left the house.

      But the sudden change from being in uniform & then running out in uniform to being in the obviously super important can’t wait meeting with the Governor in his normal clothes made me 😦 They should have left him in the uniform in that scene. Maybe they felt it would have been too disrespectful to have the Gov. lie to him while he’s in uniform, and they need to have the Gov. be on the side of good (or at least appear to be) for the time being. Show does weird little stuff like that.

  13. First I want to say how much I love this topic and you both are hilarious and very observant. 🙂 I love Steve in his uniform and if he showed up on screen in his navy whites…well, I may need resuscitated. I agree, his tie probably got messed up by his seat belt, and it did provide us with a cute McDanno moment. I have no problem with McDanno as long as it doesn’t go too far. I am a huge fan of the white pants, however, they do sag at times in the rear. I think ESS is right, he had to get them bigger to fit his massive thighs.
    It is a bonus that he has to hitch them up more often…yeah, baby 🙂 My favorite cargos are the tan ones and I love him in green shirt. He did have a pair of green cargos last season that were very FOY fitting. There is a screen cap of Chin looking as if he is pointing to the FOY while they were HQ. I think there’s another in the interrogation room where he is jutting his pelvis forward with his arms crossed….I love it when he does that 😛 HE NEEDS TO DO AN UNDERWEAR PHOTO SHOOT 😯 . I need to find out what epi this was. It had to be early in the season because I can hardly watch most of the later episodes. I am really rambling, sorry, this is just such a wonderful topic. 😉 Maybe the writers could do have a “dress like a coworker day ” bit and Steve could wear dress pants and dress shirt and Danny a tee and cargos. YUMMY.., not gonna happen, but I can fantasize about it , right?!

      • The episode was 2.09 “Identity” This is the epi where he does his dance on the gag reel. (I think??) He was in a blue v neck (shocking, I know) and there is a great shot of his ass in the hotel room with the victim’s girlfriend. He’s got on his kevlar and thigh holster…BONUS! He wears the same thing the whole ep, but he looks DAMMM GOOOD!!!

    I’m so thrilled with this post…you know how I LOVE to talk about what he’s wearing or shouldn’t be wearing (such as shirts and pants)!! Speaking of pants…if he HAS to wear them I’m all for the white ones. Yes, it would be great if they fit tighter on that marvelous ass…but I forgive pants because they more than make up for it by the way they hug his massive thighs and for how they fit so snuggly across his obviously huge manhood. *sigh*
    I agree that we need to see Steve wear white more often. It would be SO.AMAZING to see him in his dress whites…or even a white dress shirt…or a white t-shirt…or a (very) short white robe… or a (very) small white towel…or (are you sitting down?) tighty whities….OH GOD…just thinking about that makes my heart race..and makes me tingle in all the right places…oh my…I think it’s time for a cold shower…A.VERY.COLD.SHOWER!!!

  19. Aloha 🙂 Okay I admit – I had a true fun reading this one 🙂 To be honest I love the most, when Alex runs around the set with white shirt and black kevlar 😀 And what he should have on his sexy ass? I’m cargo girl – I love these ones what they let him dress in season 3 🙂 And I agree with ESS since I like white pants of Steve’s – they don’t always look bad on this firm ass of Alex – it all depends on this, how he wears them and to be honest? Since I know how perfect butt he has, I don’t have such a huge problem when they slid down a bit and you don’t see every curve of his ass 🙂 Then I let my imagination to play a bit 🙂 LOL Besides I’m sporty girl, so I do love every single sport clothes he dressed – like shorts when he runs, or the one when he swims or surf 🙂 And since I’m army girl 🙂 I’m addicted to camo uniform of Steve’s along with the Dress Blues 🙂 And since I’m McDanno shipper to the core, do I have to mention, that it moves me, that twice from these few scenes, when he walks around dressed like that, he did it for Danno? *swoon* 🙂

    So yeah I had a lot of fun reading this one so mahalo 🙂 xxx
