Yeah. Steve wasn't taking no for an answer from him now anymore than he did earlier.
He already proved he could roll him once, and it didn't hurt that he already had done the same to HPD.
All it had taken in the end was one more call, for the Captain to check out that he wasn't bullshiting when he said he had the Governor's backing to do, and take, whatever was needed to get to Hesse. Including the case, and one mouthy renegade haole detective no one seemed to care about losing to begin with.
"Your captain said you transferred in from New Jersey six months ago, so your eye's still fresh." Plus, he'd had the lead on this whole case so far, and been there, so Steve hadn't taken his partner by any measure. Didn't hurt that in the last two minutes the man'd at least proven himself not entirely useless where it come to putting things together, too. At least it would be only marginally under the idea dragging around a can tied to the back of a car.
