Did you know
- TriviaKelly Lynch actually performed as three different characters in this one episode: she first appears as Lori Swann in the peep show visited by Crockett and Tubbs. She then plays Amy Ryder in the film's "dead-eyes" scene, and lastly appears as Margot Franck at the roof-top film party. This is the only time in the series that one actor performed three different characters in the same episode.

Featured review
The Husk of a Hit Show
What happened?! Gone are the clean and cool that made this show, replaced by a soap opera with jaunty one-at-time quick dialogue, exposition, and unrealistic actions/motivations from the characters.
This isn't episode isn't the worst of the series, but it does mark this season as a distinct change in tone. Feels like Miami Vice was a victim of its own success, with storylines straggling further out into generic tropes (same with the previous episode, "Amen...Send Money").
I was a big fan of the show when it first aired, but my viewing dropped after season 2 (life got busier in 1986). The MV in my mind retained that cool patina. Watching now, 35 years hence, it's a bit embarrassing and off-putting. No Michael Mann, no Dick Wolf.
I will muscle through til the finale, but if it keeps up like this, it will be a slough.
