"I'll tell you this: If there are any lingering questions for people who have been loyally watching the show from the beginning, they're all going to be answered in the 100th episode," said Lenkov. "There really will be no more questions as to, 'Are [Steve and Wo Fat] related?' and 'What is Wo Fat's relationship with Steve's mother?' …That's all going to come to a head and be resolved."
More guest stars will also be featured on the show. According to Entertainment Weekly, legendary Four Seasons front man Frankie Valli will guest star on an upcoming episode of the show. Valli will play the role of Leonard Campbell, the fiancé of McGarrett's aunt, Aunt Deb, played by Carol Burnett. The website reports that Campbell is an ex-shop teacher and has Stage 4 leukemia. He has come to Oahu so that he and Deb can get married, but McGarrett is suspicious of him as he feels that he is not being completely honest with his aunt.
