Miami Vice doesn't get much better than this. From the casting, to the balance of the writing, to the perfectly placed songs to add emotional depth, it hits all the right notes.
Up till now, there are many episodes where some of the characters are over acting. Bruce MCGill plays an ex detective on the emotional edge. He seems to be over acting at first but as the episode moves on, you realize it's all part of the story.
It's a solid episode music wise. From The Who's Baba O'Riley at the start, to Dire Straits at the end, both hit their mark emotionally.
Watching this again in 2023, it still hits hard and leaves me with goose bumps just as it did in 1985.
