I have a couple of questions about HNL. My flight is China Airlines to NRT Japan, departing 9AM

So question 1: Which check points would be most likely to have naked scanners roped off around 7-8AM?

Question 2: I heard about a little cheat called "inter-island terminal", but how does that work? Can I walk from that terminal to my international secure area? And more importantly, are the TSA in inter-island terminal going to let me through with a boarding pass to international flight departing out of completely different terminal?
