This week on Miami Vice: Crockett, per doctor's orders, takes a vacation down to the glades to get his mind off the IAD investigation into his Burnett behaviour. In true Crockett fashion, he doesn't get much rest when the bartender he was flirting with (Melissa Leo) gets taken hostages by a trio of ex-cons in search of their long-ago promised payday. Can this man catch a break? The answer is no.

This week on Miami Vice: Sonny Burnett is back as we open Season Five. He's working for a new bigwig, Oscar Carrera, and is helping him with logistical issues until his son, Miguel and his wife, Celeste make things way more complicated. Tubbs goes under as Cooper to try and see if he can jog his memory as Carrera fights with his son and his rival, El Gato - the brother of the recently departed Manolo from Mirror Image. Everything is going to Burnett's plan until he and Cooper meet up and then boom - to be continued!

This week on Miami Vice: Sonny goes back undercover to get closer to two bigwigs: Manolo and Gutierrez - against Tubb's wishes and ends up in an explosion. He survives (not to Vice's knowledge) but, has amnesia and now believes that he is his alter ego, Sonny Burnett. As he gets deeper into this new world, Tubbs is digging deeper into Manolo and Gutierrez (Antonio Fargas!) to figure out what really happened on that boat with help from the Ft. Lauderdale precinct. The same precinct that's trying to track down an internal leak to Gutierrez! What a season finale. Did I mentioned Julia Roberts?
\nAlso guest starring: Chris Cooper

This week on Miami Vice: Evil is the theme of this week as Vice hears about home invasions gone wrong when a 15-year old girl is killed, and the style matches that of Frank Hackman... remember him? From "Forgive Us Our Debts"? He shot and killed Crockett's former partner, was on death row until Crockett helped get him out, believing he was innocent. Nope! And now Crockett is about to cross paths with Hackman again right as Caitlin comes home from tour with a secret in tow.
\nAnd I finish the episode off with some Sheena Easton Viced Tea!

This week on Miami Vice: Frank Mosca (Stanley Tucci) returns to Miami to check in on his legitimate businesses, including a pasta factory that double as a laundering front LOL. Gina and Mosca get chatting at a party, and she gets closer to him to help get more info pertaining to his businesses to help Vice and the Feds, who are still trying to nail him. Crockett appears concern (or is it jealousy? Bro, go focus on your wife!) as she gets deeper undercover with Mosca, who has taken a shine to her. But, Gina gets closer, and like Frank Stallone in this episode, a little too close to fire.

This week on Miami Vice: Tubbs almost gets killed in a deal gone bad when a group of men in police jackets blow most of them away, steal their drugs, money and jewelry. Something is already amiss when Tubbs spots a woman keeping watch at the deal and then at a related crime scene - she's also undercover, with Special Ops - and things get complicated from there as more coincidences pop up. Along with coincidences, this episode's them is déjà vu and the colour blue as we deal with another insider leak case, returning guest stars (Lester with plastics aka Julio Oscar Mechoso, Nick Cori, Michele Shay) and a snakeskin tanktop we have seen before.

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs along with Vice get wrapped into an arms deal that is exposed when a visiting Chilean police commander (Tony Plana) kills a working girl and her pimp when they attempt to blackmail him. Then it turns out the DEA's Agent Brody (Mark Metcalf) is protecting him because they claim he's helping them with the Andean cartel. Vice digs deeper and deeper to find out the why and the what behind this arms purchase from a totally believable lol arms dealer Stiles (Oliver Platt), which includes CBUs - Compact Bombing Units - essentially landmines, and try and stop the shipment from leaving Miami.

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs bust a...hooker train...(??) and recognize one of the johns as a gubernatorial candidate they saw earlier that night on TV, Tom Pierce. Crockett cracks up until it becomes no joke when a few people involved are killed. How dirty are these politics?
\nOther topics include: those funny white hats are definitely only an American thing, the most unrealistic gambling addiction portrayal I've ever seen, political wives and more!

This week on Miami Vice: Giddy up! Vice gets caught up in the middle of a Cold War battle of frozen bull semen between a cowboy, a bumbling fed (Harry Shearer) and Cuban spy in this ode to classic Westerns. Just stay with me here. It seems our beloved Izzy is quite the cowboy (in a redecorated apartment) who ends up getting involved trying to play all sides. Let's see how that turns out.

This week on Miami Vice: Trouble in Tinseltown? Crockett joins Caitlin in Los Angeles (or Miami with LA B-roll) as she begins her press blitz. He's not impressed with her shoddy security detail, her team and the lack of humidity and hightails it back to Miami for work only to become wrapped up in a case that's a little too close to home. Remember Tommy and the record execs who blew him up? They're going to recoup some of their business losses if Caitlin can't go on tour - for whatever reason that could be...MESSAGE! Back to LA he goes, and back to Miami while their new marriage weathers its rocky start.

Anywhoo, when investigating the freak death of a gentleman who jumps though a window when he sees Noogie and Izzy dressed up like aliens, Trudy sees things no one else believes. Mainly a date with famous singer, now alien-enthusiast talk show host (??) named Lou de Long (guest start the James Brown) until she meets him in person and exclaims that he's old LOL! While everybody thinks Trudy's gone off the deep end, one young buck at OCB (Chris Rock) recognizes her story and how she feels retelling it and , oh yeah, he believes. But, does the rest of Vice?

This week on Miami Vice: Vice gets involved in the adult film industry when a well-known artiste premiering his new snuff film, Death and the Lady, is accused of murder, not film magic. As they dig deeper, they wander through peep shows and art schools to get an answer... the beautiful blonde in the film turns up - twice! (Kelly Lynch) but, where is her lookalike? Crockett can tell by the eyes on screen, they're dead eyes, but the artiste, Glantz (CSI's Paul Guilfoyle) is too busy cosplaying as Willem DaFoe in To Live and Die in LA to have left any tracks. The DA (Miguel Ferrer RIP!) doesn't think a jury will convict with mostly circumstantial evidence, and Crockett refuses to ignore his intuition in this highly stylized episode. Happy news? A feline friends joins the Vice team.

This week on Miami Vice: A big-time televangelist's wife gets busted by Vice which sets off a chain reaction of events: framing Tubbs, a rogue rival televangelist, an Act of God-caused explosion (how fitting!) and lots of crocodile tears and fundraising. This very ripped-from-the-headlines nod to Jim Bakker is rife with zealous acting and wild outfit choices. And the power of satellite in the 1980s vs cable.
\nGuest star: Brian Dennehy, Ben Stiller

This week on Miami Vice: We close out Season 3 with a Gina-centric episode when her late mother's fiancé comes to Miami in the name of vengeance (we love Miami vengeance!) against a Cuban exile with ties to Castro who killed her mother in a fit of jealousy. We get to see Saundra Santiago sing her heart out with a lot of blue light as she learns more about her family's past through this fiancé, Klaus... who is wanted by the cops... and also a top East German Intelligence Officer. Gina can never win!

This week on Miami Vice: Tubbs is trying to make a deal with a bigwig crack dealer named Gallego when Gallego gets ripped off for cash and a suitcase that he almost gave up his life to protect... questions? What's in the suitcase? And why were the robbers wearing prosthetics and stage makeup? This leads back to a once reformed ex-con who runs a theatre for ex-cons called Mi Vida Loca (no relation to the movie) as a way to give them a safe form of expression. Crockett knows the talent Mikey has and can't understand why he gave up so much and burned so many bridges along the way, and now he's at risk of throwing his whole life away, and of those that love him, for Gallego's suitcase. Guest starring: Benecio Del Toro!

This week on Miami Vice: Guest stars galore! Don Johnson directs his ex-wife - and at this time, future ex-wife again and mother of his child in this episode, as Melanie Griffith plays a secretive businesswoman who has a role to play in the death of a dirty businessman and a beautiful escort (Vanity) and who has a long-standing relationship with an even bigger businessman, played by George Takei. Crockett once again falls for someone out of his world, but this time, it's a lot more surprising when connections are made (and exposed in a live television interview). Was Christine von Marburg the original SHE-E-O/Girlboss? Or the inspiration for Heidi Fleiss? Maybe both?
\nOther topics include: the first-world problem of jet lag, roulette wheels, messy breakups and interestingly timed pregnancies and more!
Shoutout to Evelyn in CT for writing in about this epsiode a while back!

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs assist rookie cops (Guest Stars: Lou Diamond Phillips and Viggo Mortensen) to execute a search warrant, which turns out to be a trap and it's becoming a pattern in South Florida. Tubbs is irate that no one seems to take the leak of private information and its deadly consequences seriously, and partners up with a Special Investigations Agent, with a girlfriend working the Dept of Justice (Annette Bening in her second role ever!) who has a plan for him to get his retirement money way quicker, after he gets arrested trying to get his money from the Credit Union. The surviving rookie cop, Bobby, is following Tubbs closely after the botched search warrant that killed his partner as Tubbs seems to alienate the rest of the Vice team that tries to help, like Switek and Crockett. Lou Diamond Phillips and Edward James Olmos on screen before they were getting into it over math in Highland Park.

This week on Miami Vice: This week on Miami Vice: Crockett brings in a former cop and surveillance whiz named Duddy to assist in an investigation of a mysterious and rightfully paranoid dealer, as they try and figure out what exactly he's dealing. Add the dealer's extreme paranoid and vengeance to the mix and you've got a lot of bodies in the way, will Duddy - who tries to play both sides - be next? Other questions include: What would Duddy do and feel about the age we live in now? How ahead of the times was Miami Vice on issues of personal surveillance and technology working against us? Why I shouldn't have coffee and my adventure in American Credit Scores!

Vincent D'Onofrio guest stars as a criminal who Tubbs helped lock up on a Murder One charge that magically got out, wonder who's side he's on? Michael Mann casting strikes hot with the gorgeous Alicia who was out favourite seductive wife in Season One's "The Great McCarthy", who stars as Alicia and who works together with one of Tubbs' exes from New York (not Valerie).

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett's one-scene girlfriend from last week Theresa (Helena Bonham Carter) is hiding a drug habit from him that ends up with a decision to pass information along that destroys the evidence against a drug kingpin Wyatt (Brad Dourit, the voice of Chucky) and kills multiple people in the process. Crockett does all he can to help her, but she is facing the prospect of losing her medical license as a result of the arrest and treatment. Crockett has to do what's best for her while also clearing his name and reputation with Internal Affairs. Other topics include: it's time to be European and I'm taking August off (see video link below for inspiration lol), why Helena Bonham Carter sounds too posh to make this believable, but not too posh to wreck multiple homes in her real life, how doing what's best for someone else hurts you and more!

This week on Miami Vice: Oscar Winner Haing S. Ngor guest stars as a investigator named Trahn who worked with Castillo in Vietnam to try and catch a serial killer targeting sex workers, and when similar murders start occurring in Miami, he comes to town to investigate. Crockett and Tubbs try and question fellow Vietnam veterans to get more info on who this serial killer could be and battle with the ethics at play while Castillo and Trahn dig deeper into a possible "company" connection. Crockett is dating the palest (naturally British) woman in Miami, be careful of who you trust, did Miami Vice start the leather duster to serial killer or vampire slayer trend? and more!
\nEditor's note: that "computer" is a microfiche, thank you to the Imgur commented who pointed that out.
\nTrigger Warning: this episode deals with a lot of heavy themes such as sexual abuse, genocide and murder.

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs get caught up in a paramilitary plot to assassinate a Cuban dignitary when a drug deal goes bust and the dealer and a fellow cop get shot. The feds get involved when Vice starts digging into Victor Vasquez, who did work for them after he defected from Cuba and throw a wrench in their plans. Things get hairier when a meet between Vasquez and Zamora with Tubbs posing undercover as Cooper escalate from just a rip-off to an off...period and Crockett is taken hostage in the thick, jungle-like forest. The paramilitary group known as the La Segunda Brigada are planning to assassinate the Cuban Deputy Commissioner of Prisons who is in town in Miami, who is definitely not keeping a low profile by riding a limo with a Cuban flag (and in a goof an American flag). Marina got a visit from the hat man earlier this week so forgive any mistakes or mispronounced words!

This week on Miami Vice: A short little drink of Viced Tea to get you through the long weekend! How old is Sonny Crockett really? When was he in Vietnam and when did he start in Vice? The man has lived many lives, so let's break it down!
\n\nEdit: I know some online sources say Crockett did two tours, but, I've only found audio of him saying two years, which I understood to be subsequent, could both be true and maybe he's older than the show would have it? Or were there goofs in the continuity?

This week on Miami Vice: The conclusion of Down For the Count. Switek is still reeling from Zito's death which everybody knows is a murder, except IAD and they want more conclusive evidence before they can change their minds. Guzman's gator skin book gets decoded by one of Crockett's old war buddies (Chris Elliot in a great cameo) and it turns out Guzman has been milking a Vegas hot shot in his little book cooking scheme. He comes to Miami and Vice takes this time as a way to pit these two against each other. The FBI warns Crockett that Giulinni, the Vegas mafioso who was also in One Eyed Jack (Michael Mann casting!) - is not pleased with them or their affiliation with Guzman but, Crockett brushes it off. This all culminates when both sides put hits out on each other in Miami, will Vice be there in time? This depends on Switek, who is out for revenge after what happened to Larry. Other topics include: wait, how old is Crockett? (editor's note: this will be it's own episode)

This week on Miami Vice: Zito is back in action...for a while when Vice infiltrates the Miami boxing circuit to get closer to a promoter named Guzman, who was a major importer not even three years ago but has supposedly "changed" his tune. Even Don Cash, naturally played by Don King knows this and warns Crockett and Tubbs. Zito apparently has experience, since this is maybe the second or third episode we really learn anything about him, and a friend involved named Moon (Randall "Tex" Cobb) who's training a hot shot named Sykes, and Vice wants to use Sykes as bait to catch Guzman, since they know he's not truly clean. Unfortunately, a lot of people are going to get caught in the middle, including our dear Larry Zito.

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett gets information that could exonerate a man he put on Death Row for killing his partner back in 1980. He brings this to the State Attorney who is in the middle of an election campaign that is decidedly pro-capital punishment and he won't move it further unless Crockett can get corroborating witnesses. Crockett embarks on a mission to get statements as the clocks tick to free a supposedly innocent man who is facing the electric chair.

This week on Miami Vice: Vice busts a fellow cop (Bill Paxton) they find along with a working girl holding some pharmaceutical-grade cocaine during a motel bust. They dig deeper to find the source, first looking into the pimp/dealer Silk (Wesley Snipes) and they set Tubbs up as his competition with the alias Butch and a menacing Panama Hat that matches his silver suit. Crockett sympathizes with cop who's too far under that he seems to have not factored his wife into the equation of trying to get his sex worker girlfriend off the streets but, despite Crockett's attempts at helping, this story has played out on Miami Vice before, and will again, to sad results. Trudy and Gina absolutely SLAY their street outfits as they play along to try and get Carla to play along with their ruse since she's naturally hesitant about working with cops, unless it's her married boyfriend - of course. As the pressure gets put on Silk, his supplier gets angry and starts putting out hits on the competition, the main one being Butch aka Tubbs, oh no!

They have to work with Lt. Gilmore (Jack Thibeau) who seems to have already gone over the edge trying to catch this cat burglar and they butt heads until he's taken off the case due to his deteriorating mental health, will Crockett be next? Is this the primetime version of Michael Mann's 1986 film Manhunter which was released one month after this episode was filmed? Because it sure seems like it!

This week on Miami Vice: Ira Stone (Bob Balaban) returns to Miami with a lot of (justified) paranoia and proof of the US involvement in Nicaragua when he sees (and has the tape) Americans posing as Sandinistas, touching on the real and timely issue of the Iran-Contra scandal. With this proof, he wants a Peabody and starts putting the word out that the tape is for sale, which in turn means the government is hot on his tail and Crockett, loyal as always, is worried his friend is back on the hard stuff and stretching the truth. Maynard (G Gordon Liddy) returns to get Stone once again before Stone's work foils his evildoing.

Vice uses him as leverage to infiltrate the race circuit and discover it's not just the mechanics hands who get dirty. This episode is light on the plot and heavy on the race scenes and amazing billboard ads from the mid-80s so definitely check out the gallery and the socials.

To no one's surprise, she is the inspiration for the episode's title, uh oh Tubbs! This episode is full of a lot of very interesting themes and subjects along with some WILD fashion choices. Topics include: the attitude shift towards sex workers from 1985 until now, the White Lotus (spoilers!), listening to what a person wants instead of of trying to change their mind, falling in love with the idea of someone, Fiona's super strong singing voice (I wish she would have sung in this episode), that independence means different things to different people and how family support can be a privilege and much more!

They get closer to the lead when they realize it leads back to their time in Vietnam when Stone (Balaban) discovered heroin in the bodybags of deceased soldiers. Guest stars galore! Iman! Bob Balaban! Patti D'Arbanville! And while we explore the darker themes of the damage the Vietnam war had on the American generation who were drafted and served and how they were ignored and spat on when they returned, we also get to rock out to a Doors-centric soundtrack and Crockett's impeccable style this episode.

This week on Miami Vice: Gina's housekeeper is raped at her apartment by a stereotypical rich Miami playboy with connections, and Gina is determined to get justice despite all the obstacles in her way while the victim deals with his abuse and continued intimidation and her familial obligations in Haiti. A very depressing episode and tough topics are covered so please note a trigger warning of rape for the entire episode. I do find some comic relief in Arroyo's (Joaquim De Almeida) attitude and his love of gold jewelry, a "sweet" drug bust that goes bust and TIL I learned there are different DeBarges, and the one performing in this episode (El DeBarge) is not allegedly the baby father of Janet Jackson's secret child who was rumoured to have been raised by Rebbie.

Zombie or Romeo and Juliet-style fakeout? They dig deeper into his history that includes human smuggling, money laundering, corruption and moonlighting as a Voodoo Priest, the latter causing Tubbs to get in way over his head. Other topics include Michael Mann casting so good I didn't even notice, a Forrest Gump connection, an old CanCon family staple with a way bigger guest star than I ever would have thought and some depressing Viced Tea (I'm sorry, trust me, not by choice!)

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett reconnects with an old friend with some questionable connections while he and Tubbs try to protect a young mother fleeing not only an abusive husband but a hit when she inadvertently takes some very incriminating documents. Guest stars: James Remar, Nathan Lane and Frankie Valli. Annie returns, bright and colourful as always without her husband Noogie, who is "out of town" as she connects with the young mother (esthr Balint). We discuss bar etiquette, the importance of financial independence and more!
\n\nEdit: I had this whole part about Esther Balint that I totally skipped during recording sorry! Her father was the founder of the Squat Theatre Troupe in NYC and was friends and worked with Jean-Michel Basquiat and Jim Jarmusch!

This week on Miami Vice: Giancarlo Esposito is back again thanks to loyal Michael Mann casting and we are better for it! He plays Adonis, a seemingly slick drug dealer with possible bigtime connections who meets Trudy through her on-again ex-boyfriend David (Cleavant Derricks) who she reconnects with after some trouble at work. She deals with an Internal Affairs investigation looking into her after she shoots and kills a suspect during an undercover bust with Crockett as she deals with inner conflict between her loyalty to OCB and her personal life.

This week on Miami Vice: We take a break from recaps and get into some Viced Tea! Our first-ever episode of Viced Tea gets into the story of Philip Michael Thomas' work with the Psychic Friends Network (later Access Resources, later Traffix, Inc.) from 1994 to 1997 and the messiness at the time of his tenure after he was replaced by Miss Cleo! Learn more about who Miss Cleo was, how the "psychic" hotlines got into hot water, the GTA: Vice City connection, what happened after he exited, and Philip Michael Thomas' vegan cookbook!
\n\nLike Viced Tea? Feel free to suggest topics about the Miami Vice stars that deserve a standalone episode. We will be back next Friday for our regular programming and recapping S02 E05: The Dutch Oven

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs are investigating a drug dealer who is thought to have disappeared and is helped by an eccentric ex-cop Hank Weldon (Bruce McGill) who isn't all there but, seems to know a lot about the guys they're going after. Bring some tissues as I cry my eyes out and talk about mental health treatment and how it lacked then and now, loyalty to one's partner, more about Joel Surnow (the last episode he appears to be credited on :( and the origins of 24 being planted here (Dennis Hopper almost played Hank Weldon, as much as I love Dennis I think Bruce had the subtlety and heart to take this episode further. Some spicy content about Little Richard in Viced Tea (45:08), be warned!

This week on Miami Vice: Crockett and Tubbs dig into the world of Santeria with the help of a Priestess (guest star Eartha Kitt) during their investigation of the mysterious death of two cops outside of their jurisdiction. Crockett has his own problems when his Spyder gets taken back into police custody with plans to take it to auction.
\n\nEDIT: I totally missed my notes on Eartha Kitt, sorry! Not only was she Catwoman, but after speaking up against the Vietnam War at a White House dinner and bringing Ladybird Johnson to tears, she was effectively blackballed in the States and worked abroad. She allowed parts of the dossier the CIA had compiled against her to be published in 1975, badass lady. She also did a ton of great charity work! She also looks amazing in her Catwoman costume

This week on Miami Vice: We wrap up season one with Dennis Farina returning as Lombard, John Santucci returning after 8 episodes to play a different character (love that Michael Mann loyalty), and Ned Eisenberg as the son of a late Mafioso. Crockett and Tubbs have to protect Lombard, who is very reluctant to testify against the Labrizzi family even as he is backed into a corner with immunity, which means he can't plead the Fifth, but can be held in contempt of Court. We talk about the magic of crushed garlic, not garlic powder, what is Seven Card Stud poker for those of us who grew up watching celebrities play Texas Hold 'Em on TV and the price we all pay for what we feel is morally right.
\n\nProgramming Note: Season 2 of Vice and Easy will be back in August! Thanks for listening and catch up with old episodes in the catalog and then we are off to meet Sonny and Rico in New York with the Season 2 premiere.

Guest starring: William Russ (Cory Matthews' dad) and Al Israel (Scarface) whose paperwork says he's 27?!?!?!?! This is a very emotionally poignant episode and I'm surprised it wasn't the season finale!

The first episode I ever saw features a young Evan Handler (that's Harry Goldenblatt to a different generation), boxing, arthouse cinema fashion and A+ acting from Don Johnson. I reminisce on how relaxed flying used to be and point out another GTA: Vice City trivia fact.
