Vice and Easy

This week on Miami Vice: Burnett's Scarface-esque rise to power is facing some more snags: booze, Tubbs (yes, even after being shot), El Gato, and both Cliff and Celeste's betrayal. And also a large cat named Morris. The flashbacks continue as Burnett struggles and is blown up again.....!!!! This guy can't catch a break! Let's see what happens as Burnett's power wanes and Crockett's memories continue to flood back.

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?

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.

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: In a very creepy episode, Vice gets involved in an investigator over a serial killer and rapist of teenage girls once it's discovered the girls had 100% pure cocaine injected into their bloodstream, narrowing their circle of suspects to local drug kingpins. Crockett and Tubbs are undercover at another kingpin's house by the name of Palmo when this all goes down, which complicates matters, but also helps them use their expertise to get the serial killer in their midst.

!!! TW: Sexual abuse, murder, pedophilia, drugging !!!

Be warned, this episode is a rough one!
