I know they were close during the series run but NOT that close. They were two individuals with their own minds and own way of doing things, both inside the law of course. It's one of the reasons Season 12 (again, there are many) ranks last among all the Seasons, at least to me.
Yeah that speech at the beginning with Danno acting as if he was head of Five-O was weird. However, it was 17 years after the final original episode, so I chalked it up to McGarrett retiring, and Danno being head of Five-O for many years prior to this 1997 reboot series beginning. But yeah, the writing was kinda lazy there.

I really think this had potential, though.
