Hawaii 5-0 was a 1968-1980 American television series about a fictional Hawaiian state detective department known as "5-0" and led by Detective Captain Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord).

A Bullet for McGarrett (season 2, episode 6)
Dr. Paul Farrar (Eric Braeden) is one of Wo Fat's lackeys and a professor of psychology at a local college. He uses his knowledge of hypnosis to turn people into assassins. After a student (Sheila Larkin) guns down her target and then kills herself, the 5-0 team investigates. McGarrett sends policewoman Joyce Bennett (Marianne McAndrew) undercover as a student in Farrar's class. But Farrar figures out what's going on and hypnotizes Joyce into shooting McGarrett.
