#KaiGotMail that he's not only a formidable complement to the #NCISHawaii team but also the favorite human among dogs!
#SaveNCISHawaii

the guy who dreamed about becoming an iron chef left searching for something. came home to the island to be a navy cop. found his people, found it within himself to realize he needed to open up about his past. here’s to kai holman! (3/3)

#SaveNCISHawaii #KaiGotMail #NCISHawaii

kai was just looking for a job, but instead he found a family. an ‘ohana. people who love him for him and look out for his best interest. which is sometimes reflected in teasing kai about his film preferences and his canadian girlfriend (she’s real!) (2/3)

#SaveNCISHawaii #KaiGotMail #NCISHawaii

today’s about our guy kai. the local boy that came back a man who’s still dealing with his past. attempting to rebuild a relationship with his father while still grappling with the loss of his mother (1/3)

#SaveNCISHawaii #KaiGotMail #NCISHawaii

So, thank you Alex Tarrant for not only portraying the incredible Kai Holman, but also, for being incredible yourself.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Even now, 8.5 months later, he still occasionally interacts with us. He doesn’t have to, but he does, and it always feels like live people get revived when that happens.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Lastly, the amazing Alex Tarrant. We should count ourselves as so lucky that that man was our Kai Holman. Not only is it difficult to imagine anyone else in that role, but he also clearly cared about this show.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

In the end, Kai understands that the people matter first, and that a woman being more suited to do stuff does not compromise his masculinity in any way.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

but he knows that everyone has their roles and size should be used as an advantage, when necessary, even if it means that a woman has an advantage in some way, it doesn’t matter because that will overall be better for everyone.

Then in 1x14 “Broken,” Lucy volunteers to go under the house with Kai because she is small. He doesn’t take that as her thinking she is more capable to do it,

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

like Kate getting knocked unconscious, he doesn’t only focus on the mission, he cares about the people beside him, and it clearly emotionally impacted him, which you can here in his voice as he is telling Kate to get checked out.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Also, like all the guys on the show, he was the definition of #NonToxicMasculinity. Kai was a super tough dude who could chase down any suspect, but then, when things happen,

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Hawaii has such a rich cultural background that maybe the best idea they had for the show was to make someone on the show to be Native Hawaiian to be able to bring that authentic culture into the team.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

At the end of the day, you don’t have to believe what everyone else believes, but you do need to be respectful, and that is what Kai is ensuring occurs amongst his team.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

and also, when speaking to Jesse about ghosts and spirits, he always brought it back to “just be respectful”.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Also, in episodes like 2x04 “Primal Fear” he tried hard to ensure that the cultural lands, where the bodies were buried, was given respect, as they were being excavated,

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

He was able to offer this unique perspective to the team that was demonstrated through cases like in 1x08 “Legacy” where he talks about how the rich have come in and taken over large, culturally significant, parts of Hawaii without a care.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

Then, throughout the rest of the show, we get to see him always trying to do the right thing and be this middle ground between the US government and protecting, and respecting, the culture of the people of Hawaii.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

and now that he has a greater ability to stand up, he was trying to use it, even if it led to him getting locked up by HPD.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

First, Kai was a guy that was introduced to us by trying to stand up for what he thought was right. He knows what it is like to grow up on the island,

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

There is so much to be said about Kai Holman that I am having a difficult time knowing where to begin. It is difficult to determine what is more special, the incredible character or the amazing actor and person who played him.

#SaveNCISHawaii #NCISHawaii #KaiGotMail

For today's funny post, please enjoy Kai Holman jumping into/onto things he probably shouldn't. In season four, I'm betting it'll be a helicopter and/or down a waterfall. #KaiGotMail #SaveNCISHawaii

I ship Kai with Camille. And Boom-Boom. And Sola. And Adriana. And Bam-Bam. And Hina. Kai has vibes with so many people, and his rom-com obsessed heart has so much love to give, so give him a romance arc, please! 🩷💜💙 #KaiGotMail #SaveNCISHawaii

The plotlines I'd most like to see for Kai is finding out more about his mom and his time in the marines, a long term love interest, and something to challenge him in his career. I think he needs an equivalent of Lucy's agent abroad without the abroad part. #KaiGotMail #SaveNCISHawaii

My favorite Kai episodes of S3 are 3x05 and 3x06. I loved meeting Kai's very real Canadian kinda girlfriend and they were so cute together, but I also loved the comedy in 3x06. That man sat on an exercise ball to avoid an awkward conversation; relatable. #KaiGotMail #SaveNCISHawaii

Today we're celebrating Special Agent Kai Holman! Former marine, talented chef, rom-com lover and Inoki's dad (a pet we've actually seen, *cough*Jesse*cough*). He's fun to mess with, unless you're a criminal - then it's just painful. #KaiGotMail #SaveNCISHawaii
