I agree that McG wasn't too concerned about Kono in this episode. Down goes the rating another ½ point!

He seemed much more perturbed about Chin Ho in "24 Karat Kill" where Chin got bonked on the head. And in "Daisies" and "The Young Assassins," he was concerned about Danno.

He was more interested in Kono's welfare at the end of "The Ransom," actually.

I don't think he was ever really concerned about Ben, because Ben never got himself in a pickle!
