== Biography ==

=== Early life ===
Catherine is a "Navy brat" and moved around frequently due to her father's various assignments. During Pro Bowl weekend, when asked why she supported the Dallas Cowboys, she explained that she had never stayed in any one place long enough to feel an affinity for an NFL team. She herself joined the Navy and is a former intelligence officer. Like Steve, her military service record remains vague. She previously dated [[Billy Harrington|William "Billy" Harrington]], one of Steve's SEAL buddies whom she had worked with.

=== Navy Career ===
==== 2002 ====

Steve asked Catherine out to the Army-Navy Gala at West Point. He called her after a mission in Afghanistan landed him in the hospital. Catherine was seen working in Operations on a Navy warship (potentially the U.S.S. Enterprise) when she received the call. She said "yes" to going out with him.

==== 2006 ====
Catherine was part of a special naval unit that went from village to village, speaking Afghan women. The mission was partially outreach and part intelligence gathering. She and her unit entered Baoakhan Province to speak to the local women, and when Najib went after a soccer ball that was kicked too hard, Catherine spotted him heading towards a field and yelled at him in Pashto not to go out there and chased after him. She caught up to Najib and told him it was dangerous out there as there were landmines and if he was to step on one, he would go boom. Amir then came over and called Najib to him.

Catherine pulled out her satellite phone and called Billy, asking for a favor. A machine was brought over to get the soccer ball back safety. Catherine was able to give Najib back his ball.

==== 2007 ====
Catherine did a recon surveillance operation that had gone sideways. She got separated from her unit when it came under fire. She suffered GSW to the leg, a broken arm and a broken vertebra. She had no satellite phone, no radio, and she was completely cut off from her unit. That was when Amir and his son, Najib, found her and she pulled her weapon on them, but Amir told her that they were not the enemy. Amir then offered Catherine his help and she accepted.

Amir brought Catherine back to his home, to the disbelief of his wife. Amir removed the bullet from her leg and bandaged it up. As he was about to leave, Catherine tearfully grabbed his arm and gave her thanks to him.

A few days later, Catherine was playing a game with Najib when Amir rushed into the house. He told Catherine to go outside quickly, as the Taliban were coming. As the Taliban searched Amir’s house, Catherine was hidden in the well out front. She was pulled out by Amir and his wife when the Taliban drove away.

The next day, Catherine left the village, flagged down a U.S. military convoy and made it back to base. For his own safety from the Taliban, Catherine never mentioned Amir or his family to anyone.

Steve tells her she needs to stay at the hospital and rest. He tells him he’ll call the police and then go to the crime scene. Catherine says good and that she is going, too. She can't stand by and do nothing while Billy's killer is still out there, Steve of all people should understand that. Steve folds. 

In the morning, Catherine arrives at the crime scene with Steve. Duke meets them and suggests they look for themselves. They walk into the house and are surprised that the house is completely cleaned, no blood, no bullet holes. Catherine insists that there was blood and that it doesn't make sense. Steve asks if there's a chance that she got the address wrong, Catherine says someone must have scrubbed the place while she was unconscious. She takes off her sling and points out where the victim's body was and that the walls have got still wet paint on them. Someone cleaned the crime scene. 

Steve takes Catherine to headquarters and asks about her case, trying to figure out who would have motive. When Danny comes back to headquarters, Catherine says he didn't need to rush back and asked if Grace will be disappointed that he's not cheering on, Danny says no because last year the judges had said he was too distracting.

In "[[Kupouli ʻla (episode)|Kupouli ʻla]]", Catherine is running at night, reliving the moments that Billy was shot, taken to the hospital and then, finally, his funeral. She runs through Steve's door just as he's giving candy out to trick-or-treaters, he tells her costume needs some work and offers her some candy, which she rejects. Steve tells Catherine that she needs to stop punishing herself for Billy's death. He tells her he knows exactly what's she going through, he's been exactly where she is now. She needs to stop carrying the weight of that night, stop reimagining the situation in all the ways she could have done something different. He tells not to forget but forgive herself and give herself a chance to move on. 

Catherine says she wants to, but she doesn't know how to do so. Her whole life was the Navy, she had a purpose and now that's all gone. Steve tells her she's got to find something, it doesn't have to be a job, does put matter what it is she just has to find something. Putting her life on hold won't bring Billy back, Catherine agrees. 

Catherine goes to headquarters and puts a file on Chin’s desk. He asks her what's in it, she tells him it's FBI's forensic accounting files on the yakuza. She comments that Riku Sato has been laundering a lot of money through Hawaii lately. Chin asks her where she got the file, which Catherine replies to a friend in the bureau. Chin then asks if Steve knows she's doing this. She says not yet, but she knows that Chin’s been trying to find out where Sato is keeping Adam and she wants to help. Chin says okay and for Catherine to tell him everything she knows.

She points out Sato’s deposits, there's no way Sato’s running that kind of money through Hawaii without having someone here to watch it. They need to identify that person and they lead them to Sato. Chin says he knows Catherine already has an idea of who that person is. She does, Ryu Nabushi, listed as an officer on three of the accounts, showed up in Hawaii around the time the cash started to flow in. On paper he's clean, but Catherine thinks that's a cover. Her best bet is that Nabushi is Sato’s moneyman. 

Chin thanks Catherine, he promised Kono he'd find Adam, and this is his best lead yet. But he can't involve her any further. Catherine says he can. She lost Billy, she's not about to lose another friend.

Catherine wearing a red wig, goes undercover at the hotel Nabushi is staying at. She follows Nabushi to the elevators while pretending to be on her phone. She manages to get photos of Nabushi as he enters the elevator and quickly asks him to hold the elevator door as she enters it. Nabushi and Catherine make flirty small talk on the way up, Catherine also manages to see which floor he is staying on. When Nabushi exits on his floor and the doors have closed again, Catherine pulls out a small device that brings up Nabushi’s fingerprint from the elevator floor button she asked him to press for her. She takes a photo of it and saves it. 

That night Catherine is back at Steve's house, pouring over a table full of information on Sato and Nabushi. She looks up when Steve enters the house with dinner. He says he thought she could do with some dinner and says it looks like she's been busy. She says she just taking his advice, Steve nods and then asks her what's the plan.

In "[[Ua Nalohia (episode)|Ua Nalohia]]", Catherine is getting ready to go undercover at a private club. Steve, having just got out of the shower, says he's not comfortable with Catherine going alone. But Catherine says that everyone on the island knows what Steve and the rest of 5-O look like. If they go in their suspects will be out the back door and gone, she says she'll be fine. Steve asks what she will do if she's compromised, Catherine, with a smile, says she'll improvise. Steve then goes over to a drawer and pulls out a 5-O badge and gives it to Catherine. Catherine jokingly asks if he is deputizing her, but Steve asks it's just in case. Catherine says she'll fine one last time before kissing Steve goodbye. 

Catherine walks into the private club, held on a docked ship, and spots her target easily, it's Nabushi. She notices that he just lost a game, she moves closer and says betting against the table hasn't been working for him. She then leans In and whispers in his ear that maybe he could get lucky some other way and walks away. Nabushi trails after her.

Catherine leads him to a deserted bathroom and gives Nabushi a seductive look when he finally catches up to her. She walks up to him and holds out her hand. Nabushi goes to kiss it and asks if they're met before. Catherine spins him around and pins him to the wall with a gun pressed to the side of his face. Nabushi asks her what she wants, and Catherine says she wants to know where Riku Sato is. Instead of answering, Nabushi breaks Catherine's hold the two begin to fight. Nabushi has the upper hand at the start before Catherine turns the tables on him. She pins him to the floor with his own baton and then punches him the face. Nabushi asks who the hell is she. Catherine pulls out her badge and asks Five-O and asks again when Sato is.

Catherine has Nabushi is a headquarters interrogation cell. He tells her he doesn't know a Sato. Catherine tells him he doesn't have a very good poker face. She tells him she knows his real name and that he's Sato’s moneyman. She then tells him what she knows about his personal life, in depth information on his family. And she knows that he wants out of Sato’s crew. She says she can help but first he's got to tell her where she can find Sato. Nabushi asks what she wants with Sato, but Catherine says she doesn't care about Sato, she just wants to ask him about Adam.

Catherine later tells the team that she got a location on Sato and a full surveillance package from Nabushi that includes addresses structural blueprints, security system, and activity logs for his staff. She then hands Steve back the 5-O badge and thanks him for it. Steve tells her to keep it, she needs a job, and they need some help. Catherine says yes to joining and Steve welcomes her to 5-O.

In "[[Akanahe (episode)|Akanahe]]", Catherine is with Steve, Chin and Kono in Japan as they capture Sato and bring him to a warehouse. Kono questions Sato to the location of Adam. When Sato doesn't answer, Kono presses a gun to his head and asks if Adam is dead. Again, Sato won't talk. Steve then pulls Kono’s gun away and says they're going to this the right way. Catherine holds a voice recorder towards Sato and tells him to confess to the murder of Adam. Everyone is shocked when Sato reveals that out of respect to Adam’s father, he helped Adam fake his death and disappear. Sato then tells Kono if Adam was smart, he'd never show his face again and if she was smart, she'd let it go. After they've done speaking, Catherine and Steve take Sato to the drop point and say they'll meet Chin and Kono at the plane.

Catherine is with Chin when Steve calls about the kidnapping of Ian Wright. She hears the EMT say that Steve's injury is only a flesh wound, she quickly asks if he's alright. Steve says he's fine and that he's sent her the fingerprints of two of the kidnappers that were killed. Steve asks her to find out who they were.

Catherine finds out who introduced Ian and the bank robbing crew. She tries to get the information to show in the big monitors but is unable to swipe it from her tablet. Chin helps and tells her she'll get the hang of it; she says she ruined her own dramatic entrance with a smile. She then explains her suspect, Eli Diamond.

When the team figures out Ian's plan, Steve tells Catherine to call the security department to tell them their systems been hacked. She quickly does that.

Later when Steve and Grover have tracked Ian to the airport, Catherine calls Steve that she's reached out to Naval Intelligence, and they've been developing protocols to defend against these types of cyberattacks. The Navy is sending her a copy of the prototype; however, it's only been tested on simulated attacks. All they need to do is get the prototype onto Ian’s computer to stop the hack. Steve tells Catherine that they don't have the computer of origin, they only have Grover’s daughter’s computer. Catherine corrects them, mentioning that the two computers are connected, and she just needs to use one to get to the other. Catherine tries to find the original computer, but Ian has scrambled the IP addresses and she can't get a lock. 

Steve calls Catherine back and tells her to check out the IP addresses, and to see if any are near Oahu State. Catherine finds the correct computer at the computer science building of Oahu State. She then tells Steve she's on her way there now.

Catherine enters the computer science building and searches the computers. She notices one teenager just sitting at a computer reading a magazine. She walks up to him and asks what he is doing. The boy says he's saving the computer for a friend, he paid him $500 to save him the computer. Catherine shows him a picture of Ian and asks if that's his friend. The boy says yes, and Catherine tells him to get up and out of the seat. She then sits down and plugs the USB with the prototype on it into the computer. When the prototype is finally unloaded, she answers Steve's phone call to tell him he can arrest Ian now. 

She later tells Steve and Grover that they made the right decision by putting Ian on that plane in the first places even if he got away.

Catherine pauses before saying she is so sorry to hear about her illness. Aunt Deb then says she's not ready to go back yet, Catherine asks her where she wants to go.

After dropping Aunt Deb back at Steve's, Catherine is back at headquarters. Steve calls her to ask about Andrea Hicks, Catherine explains that according to the FBI Andrea witnessed the murder of a high-ranking member of a Russian crime family. The FBI wanted to talk to her, but instead she went into hiding. The family hired a hitman to shut her up for good. Steve asks Catherine to keep looking for Andrea. 

Catherine is at Steve's house when he gets back from meeting the president, she greets him with a kiss. She is also there when Thanksgiving dinner plans are changed, she and the group end up at La Mariana Tiki Bar. She and the group enjoy a song sung by Aunt Deb.

In [[Makani 'Olu a Holo Malie (episode)|Makani 'Olu a Holo Malie]], Catherine is at Steve’s house with all their friend's playing poker. In the middle of a hand, she gets a phone call. She is unable to hear the other person, so she excuses herself and goes outside. Steve follows her out and asks if everything is okay. Catherine ignores him and speaks Pashto to the person on the other end of the call. Catherine says she needs Steve's help.

Catherine and Steve are at Headquarters where Catherine tells Steve the story of Amir and his family that helped her when an op of hers went sideways. Catherine then tells Steve that Amir called her because his son was taken by the Taliban and Catherine has decided that she has to go back and help them get their son back. Steve says he understands wanting to help, but she needs to tell the military and let them handle it. Catherine disagrees and says that it'll take too long as the military has to verify everything Amir said to her and that could take days or weeks, while she could be there by dawn. 

Steve asks how she could do that, as she's not on active duty anymore. She can just jump on a plane and get there. Catherine says that's where Steve comes in, and Joe White comes in. She needs Steve to talk to him and get her into Afghanistan under the radar. When Steve says that that's crazy, she tells him she's doing it with or without his help. Steve reluctantly says he'll call Joe. Catherine thanks him.

Catherine is waiting in line to board a plane at the airport when she hears Steve call out from behind her. He tells her that he wasn't going to let her go alone. He gives her a hug and a kiss, then tells her he's got the window seat.

In the Baoakhan Province, Catherine and Steve ride into the village on horseback. They quickly make their way to Amir's house; his wife lets them in. Amir's wife, Farah, hugs Catherine and Catherine introduces Steve to her. She then asks where Amir is. Farah says he left an hour before, having heard where the kidnappers were. 

Steve and Catherine leave the village on horseback to track down Amir. They stop at the sight of blood and they both dismount to continue on foot. They find Amir at the base of a tree, unconscious and badly wounded. Catherine goes to him and tries to wake him up. Amir wakes and is surprised to see Catherine has come. Amir explains that he tried to rescue Najib, but there were to many for him to fight which caused his GSW to the stomach. Catherine holds his face and promises that she and Steve were going to get his son back.

Catherine and Steve bring Amir back to his house and tend to his wound. Catherine then spots a worn soccer ball and explains to Steve that this is what brought her, Amir and Naji together. Steve is confused and says he thought battlefield trauma is what brought them together. Catherine tells Steve about meeting Amir and Najib and helping them a year before they found her and helped her. Amir then wakes up and asks about Najib, Catherine promises that they're going to find him. Steve asks Amir if he knows which group took Najib. Amir replies that it was a splinter group under the command of Umar Hassan. Catherine says that's impossible as Umar Hassan was killed two years prior in a drone strike. Amir is convinced he is alive, and his men took his son. 

Catherine is on her laptop and asks Steve to take a look at a satellite image of a nearby village. Steve notices two pickup trucks in the image - Amir had said Najib was taken by two pickups. Catherine says it's got to be the kidnappers. Steve says the village looks fortified and he doesn't think they can take it. Catherine agrees and says their best option is to engage them somewhere along a nearby road. Steve asks way she's so sure they take that road when they move out. Catherine says that Amir mentioned rumors of a Taliban camp in the south and the road is the only way to get there.

As the pickup trucks are stopped by Steve in disguise, Catherine, who was hiding in the long grass, makes her way to the last pickup. She pulls up the back flap and finds a large group of children. She asks the children if anyone has seen Najib, the children shake their heads. She then opens up the back of the pickup and helps the children escape. One child falls down, alerting the driver, who exits the front of the pickup with his gun. Catherine quickly shoots him down but that alerts the rest of the kidnappers. Steve and Catherine engage in gun fire, Catherine manages to shoot down another kidnapper and calls from Steve. He tells her to get the kids and go. As the last kid moves into the long grass, Steve shoots a man that Catherine didn't see. Catherine can then only watch as Steve is injured by a grenade and captured. 

Catherine is back at Amir's village, she calls Danny on her SAT phone, and tells him that Steve has been captured by the Taliban. She then tells Danny that he needs to get ahold of Joe White and tell him that Umar Hassan is still alive and that there is a Taliban compound in the Panjshir Valley. She then tells him the coordinates of the compound. She tells him that's she's alright at the moment, but she has to go and hangs up, Hassan’s men have driven into the village.

Catherine calls Steve when he gets back home, he's relieved to hear her voice. He asks her where she is and if she's okay. Catherine says she fine, she tells him that Hassan’s men came into the area and she had to lay low until they left. Steve asks about the kids and if Najib was with them, and Catherine says they're safe, but Najib wasn't with them. She then says she's got a lead on where he might be, they may have taken him over the border. Steve then asks her if she's going to go after him and Catherine says yes, she has to. She feels she can't come back until she finds him. 

Steve says that's fine, and that he'll go back, and they'll find Najib together, he'll help her find him. Catherine tells Steve that he's helped her enough and it's better if she does this alone, she can keep a low profile and it's just easier. She asks him if he understands why she has to do this, and Steve says of course he does. Catherine promises him that she'll be careful. Steve tells Catherine that he loves her, Catherine holds back tears as she says she loves him too. Steve then wishes her good luck, and they hung up. Catherine jumps onto a motorcycle and drives out the village.
