Steve McGarrett, in the original Hawaii Five-0, recited poetry from time to time. In the Season 2 episode "Leopard on the Rock," he recited Mr. Kipling's poem from his Just So Stories.
I keep six honest serving men,
they taught me all I knew.
Their names are What and Why and When
and How and Where and Who.
Mr. Kipling’s six honest serving men have served writers, reporters, investigators, and even businessmen.
* Writers want to make sure their material is fully understood by the reader.
* Reporters want to make sure their report gives all the pertinent facts.
* Investigators want to make sure they’ve left no stone unturned.
* Businessmen want to uncover organizational problems and find ways to correct them.
Many thanks to Steve's Girl for her assistance on this post.
