The second season of the CBS crime drama series Hawaii Five-0 premiered on September 19, 2011. The season continues to center on the "Five-0", a specialized task force established by the Hawaiian Governor that investigates a wide series of crimes on the islands, including murder, terrorism and human trafficking. The second season introduces a new governor, Sam Denning, after the murder of his predecessor, Patricia Jameson. However, unlike Jameson, Denning orders new changes to the task force. The season includes two more main cast members, Masi Oka, who recurred in the first season, and Lauren German, who departed after episode 16. Alex O'Loughlin appears briefly in episode 20 and does not appear in episode 21 as he was seeking drug treatment for pain management medication during the production of those two episodes.
With McGarrett still out of the country, Five-0 investigate the death of a former army soldier from an advanced form of smallpox. They find that the victim, and several others who are missing, were exposed to smallpox believing they were testing with a new form of antidepressant. They find a suspect, Dracul Comescu (Craig Robert Young) of the Romanian Comescu crime family. Agents Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) and G Callen (Chris O'Donnell) of NCIS: Los Angeles are called in to assist Five-0; Callen has history with Comescu as they killed his family. They track a payment Comescu made in Sand Island, and find a lab where the other tests subjects are found to be executed before they arrived. After arresting Comescu's driver, the team learn that Comescu took some vials to sell them. They stop the sale from taking place, and Callen kills Comescu. However, the vials turn out to contain saline, and that the disgraced doctor Comescu worked with, Jarrod Prodeman (Rob Benedict), took the vials and has already arrived in Los Angeles, forcing Callen and Sam to return to Los Angeles to stop a possible smallpox outbreak from becoming a reality with Danny and Chin coming along to help.
