00:00You sure we're looking at the same guy?
00:12It's him.
00:15So I think, how's it shaking?
00:18Okay, well, we got it all.
00:21What about backups?
00:24We don't need them.
00:26Well, we're not going to bust this guy if the deal goes down?
00:30That was a stricter surveillance.
00:32We don't want bits and pieces.
00:34We want the entire operation.
00:54They're on the move again, guys.
00:56Stay with them.
00:57Okay, will do.
00:58Why the low-rent disguise?
01:03Who knows?
01:08Did E.A. say how long this guy's been a boss importer?
01:14No.
01:15Sounds like a cigarette.
01:33Twin 641s, I think.
01:35Why is he donating to the good and welfare?
01:56Why is he donating to the good and welfare?
02:00The first time I've ever seen a smoke would give up the goods
02:11without receiving the good hands.
02:16The first time I've ever seen a smoke would give up the goods
02:19must be trying to keep up the goods.
02:31Must be going to pick up the cash.
02:37The other person in charge
02:38won't be included in certain areas.
03:10I don't know what the hell is going on.
03:38Who's that in the cabin?
03:40Somebody's tied up.
03:44I don't know what the hell is going on.
03:46I don't know what the hell is going on.
03:48I don't know what the hell is going on.
03:50I don't know what the hell is going on.
05:26Since the victim is drug-related, he's not going to talk to anybody about anything.
05:30Jones, when you find a homicide report, send me a copy.
05:33What's the matter?
05:35You feel a bold permit coming up?
05:36I hope that this file is going to be reported as in the lost and found.
05:43These people have been kidnapping and killing each other since Capone's days.
05:48Well, these days don't belong to Capone.
05:50And this is in New York or Chicago.
05:54A politics of contraband...
05:56Politics of contraband does not include the killing of children.
06:02What's the matter with you?
06:03You come across like some fascist.
06:06Thank you, Lieutenant Jones.
06:13Those dolphins really are something.
06:21Morales is paralyzed from the waist down.
06:23His smuggling days are over.
06:24Yeah.
06:25His wife's been wiped out.
06:26And maybe he might want to say something to somebody.
06:29What's that?
06:32Yeah.
06:35Crocket, tough?
06:39Yeah.
06:39I don't know.
06:45They're the best.
06:51You can get a 45 minutes to show.
07:09Sonny Ricardo, Ed Waters, the D.A.
07:33I've been on an assignment here for the past six weeks.
07:41Which is why I called him and how you two got recommended.
07:45And what we're going to ask you to do is strictly voluntary.
07:50That little tea party you went to last night wasn't the first affair on that circuit.
07:54Can't believe that guy's still alive.
07:57Well, there have been at least five other massacres or kidnappings in the last three months.
08:01All the victims are smugglers moving large loads into southeast Florida.
08:08And we know why they make great victims.
08:10What are they going to do?
08:12Call the police?
08:13Exactly.
08:14Every single victim had a jacket.
08:16They were all under current investigation by state, local, federal authorities.
08:21And that's why we believe that who's ever whacking these people
08:24is getting their information from law enforcement files.
08:28The people killing these families come from our side of the fence.
08:34Who?
08:35DEA, FBI, Coast Guard, Broward County, Metro-Dade.
08:41I don't have a clue.
08:43All right, so where do we come in?
08:45You hit Cartagena like two legit smugglers.
08:48You make a buy and you bring the drugs back into Miami.
08:52We circulate an interagency memo saying that you two are suspected of moving a major load of coke.
08:59We're hoping that the people that we're looking for will come after you.
09:03So I better renew my passport.
09:05You're staying here.
09:07You're the family bait.
09:10You'll be set up in a motel as Tub's wife.
09:13You'll be wearing a homing device.
09:14Seems like a pretty big operation to be moving people to Cartagena.
09:18Not people, just you two.
09:20If you get in a jam, you're on your own.
09:23Remember, this is strictly voluntary.
09:25You'll be all alone.
09:26No help from us.
09:27You get three things.
09:29One, Morales.
09:31He agreed to cooperate and identify Tubbs as his cousin.
09:34Two, we fabricated histories on both of you.
09:38And three is one million in cash.
09:42What about transportation, customs?
09:44You make your own arrangements.
09:48Even I don't want to know what they are.
10:08You guys got a place to start?
10:10As a matter of fact, yeah.
10:18Won't be kneeling these for a while.
10:40Tucker.
10:44Tucker.
10:45My ace.
10:46What it is.
10:47What it is.
10:53Hey, do you know who this man is?
10:55Hey, you remember me?
10:57We've been blood-nearly a week.
11:04Yeah.
11:05Hold on, people.
11:07I know who this man is.
11:09Well, who'd that do you with?
11:11It's my friend, Sonny.
11:13Who's that?
11:15This is Honey.
11:17Honey? Sonny.
11:19Sonny? Honey!
11:25Remember the night we got drunk together?
11:29You said that if I needed to add some energy to my business,
11:33that I should come and see you.
11:37Remember?
11:39You said you knew this dude who could fly.
11:42Well, I need to buy a plane,
11:44so I need to know his name.
11:48That's a big fever.
11:50Run!
11:51Nobody freeze! Nobody move!
11:53Freeze! Miami Vice!
11:57Uh-oh!
12:06Oh, I have to sit there.
12:09What happened?
12:10Well, the cops busted your place, but we got you in the clear.
12:15When?
12:16Just now.
12:18So we gotta split.
12:19Now, what's that pilot's name?
12:20Oh, yeah.
12:21Name is Jimmy.
12:22Dude living like a hangar place.
12:24Oh, yeah.
12:25Name is Jimmy.
12:26Dude living like a hangar place.
12:36You sure this is the place?
12:37This is an airport, ain't it?
12:38The jury's still out.
12:42Another kind of dude.
12:43Yeah, so was son of Sam and Albert DeSalvo.
12:49Hey, Blue!
12:50Hey, Blue!
12:51I don't know if anybody has seen it,
12:52I don't know if nobody is out of here.
12:54I don't know if anybody has seen it.
12:55No.
12:56Don't you know?
12:57I don't know.
12:58I don't know if anybody has seen it.
12:59Hey, Blue!
13:04Yeah, so was son of Sam and Albert DeSalvo.
13:16Eric Bloor!
13:18Gate 5!
13:22What's happening?
13:23Tucker Smith sent us.
13:25Yeah, what about?
13:27Buy us some transportation.
13:29Yeah? From where?
13:34Columbia and back.
13:38You guys gonna be packing?
13:40Hey, what we're carrying is our business, my man.
13:44Fine, fine. I ask you no questions, you tell me no lies, right?
13:49Dynamite.
13:56We don't have time for all that.
13:58Just lay down the numbers, man.
14:00I'm real good at what I do.
14:02I don't come cheap, you know.
14:04I take you where you wanna go.
14:06I wait so many hours.
14:08And I'm a memory.
14:10And also, I ain't John Wayne.
14:12I don't have an S on my chest, okay?
14:14I'm down with you cats if the play calls for.
14:16But otherwise, I ain't into violence.
14:20So be brief about your business when we get there.
14:24But right now your business is 25 grand.
14:28Up the front.
14:32Okay, fly boy, you just tell us where, we'll tell you when.
14:34Fine.
14:48Let's go.
14:52Let's go.
14:54Let's go.
14:56So baby, here's your ticket.
14:58With a suitcase in your hand.
15:00Here's a little money now.
15:02Do it just the way we planned.
15:04So baby, here's your ticket
15:15With a suitcase in your hand
15:18Here's a little money now
15:20Do it just the way we planned
15:22You'd be cool for 20 hours
15:25And I'd pay you 24
15:27I'm sorry if I'm down like this
15:34Someone had to lose
15:36It's the nature of the business
15:39It's the smuggler's blues
15:57So you must be Big Popa's cousin, nice guy
16:00Terrible thing that happened to his family though
16:03I'm gonna leave my family out of this
16:04Short thing, I should know better
16:07Right, garbage mouth
16:09Good to see you met Wavy Davey
16:11Hard not to
16:12Hey Davey, how's my little cow?
16:14Ready to jump over the moon?
16:16I don't know about the moon
16:17But definitely Puerto Rico
16:19And shall we say Point South?
16:21We shouldn't say anything
16:22Friends love airways right this way
16:24Guy could use some time on the couch
16:29Yeah, his brain may need to tune up
16:31But boy, he sure treats the engine right
16:33Nice, huh?
16:39Guy who sold it to me said it was a lemon
16:41I'm telling you, it may look like a cow
16:43But she runs like a stallion
16:46I always like to take a goodbye look at America
16:52Just in case it's my last
16:58Sailors and the pilots
17:02Soldiers and the law
17:04Payoffs and the reports
17:06And the things nobody saw
17:09No matter if it's heroin
17:11Crocane or hash
17:13You've got to carry weapons
17:15Cause you always carry cash
17:18There's lots of shady characters
17:20And lots of dirty deeds
17:23Add the names and angels
17:25In case somebody screams
17:27It's the lure of evil
17:29Hey, come on, partner
17:31It can't be that bad to be a millionaire
17:34Might want to put those parachutes on
17:38Why?
17:43Cause we're about to leave the ground
17:46Ha ha ha ha
17:51Ha ha ha
17:52Ha ha ha ha
19:56Well, if you think you should do that, do it.
20:38The time will be very nice when you get back to Miami Beach and live in millionaire style.
21:15Do the Colombians want to make a deal?
21:18If I talk to you again, we will see if we can do the business.
21:36Make it soon.
21:40Time is money.
21:43Time is money.
21:47They'll probably sell my watch for a nickel.
21:56I'm glad they don't sell fingers on the black market.
22:03No.
22:11No.
22:13No.
22:14No.
22:15No.
22:16No.

22:55No.
22:56No.
22:57No.
22:58If you guys get the jump on you, you gotta get the jump back.
23:01Let's take them down.
23:02They'll be back in our faces.
23:03It'll be violence again, man.
23:05I hate violence, Jimmy.
23:07Come on, get right over here.
23:11Come on, come on.
23:12Come on, come on.
23:22Come on.
23:23Come on, man.
23:24He's my partner.
23:25Now I charge you.
23:28Wait a minute.
23:29Officials, please.
23:31Yeah, well, he's going to jail without us.
23:51I shouldn't have left him.
23:53I shouldn't have left him.
23:55Well, what'd you think they were going to do?
23:59Give us the key to the city, man?
24:01I mean, we had no choice.
24:04Don't you ever pull a gun on me again, pal.
24:07Ever!
24:08What were you going to do?
24:09Take on the whole police force?
24:13Maybe.
24:14Hey, look, man.
24:32This ain't a weekend cruise.
24:34This is combat.
24:35You know, when the guy next to you goes down, you don't get blown away over it.
24:41You know what I'm talking about.
24:44It's the nature of this business.
24:48You got to expect this kind of treatment when you're dealing with a guy like Grocero.
24:52Grocero could have dusted us anytime he wanted.
24:58Those are street bandits.
25:00It's places like Dodge City, 1985.
25:061985.
25:07I know.
25:10That's why I only fly the planes.
25:17Look, I'm sorry about your partner.
25:22I've been around that block before.
25:24Nom, Aircalf.
25:35Yep.
25:38Lose a lot of buddies you were close to.
25:43I lost count.
25:50Me too.
25:54But this guy, I got to wait for him.
26:24Get down.
26:24I can't wait for him.
26:25Get down.
26:26I can't wait for him.
26:44My name is Lieutenant Todo.
26:46In English, it means everything.
26:50Do you understand?
26:54We just received your file, ten minutes ago, from America.
27:00I see you are related to one Roberto Morales, notorious drug smuggler.
27:08Huh?
27:09Él es mi primo.
27:12Don't insult my family.
27:13What?
27:15Born in Puerto Rico.
27:17You were in prison.
27:19Rockers Island.
27:21Attica.
27:21Two counts of attempted murder.
27:26Two assaults and battery conviction in New York.
27:33You're a very bad man.
27:34man. So, I'm gonna tell Senor Grossero that you're clean.
28:04I certainly hope that you consider me your friend in Cartagena.
28:29You don't look like you got too much sleep.
28:32You ought to see it from this side.
28:42Whew.
28:44We gotta sample some stuff with Grossero in 20 minutes.
28:50Says who?
28:52Chief of police.
28:54I gotta believe him, right?
28:56Says we should just wait, relax until then.
29:02Great.
29:04It's called room service.
29:06Have them wipe up the furniture.
29:08Ah!
29:10Ah!
29:12Uh!
29:14Uh!
29:17Uh!
29:18I feel like a midget about to go one-on-one with Dr. J.
29:48Piece of cake.
29:55Let's bake it.
30:18Let's bake it.
30:25Let's bake it.
30:33Let's bake it.
30:54Let's bake it, my friend.
31:05How about if I just blow that coke right back out of you, amigo?
31:12You must be angry.
31:19Look, I'm a careful man.
31:22Your cousin would like you to do business with a careless man.
31:27I don't like your technique.
31:32Look, if I didn't do their jobs, I wouldn't be here doing business with you.
31:40And that's why we're here.
31:47See?
31:48You and I are businessmen.
31:53We have business to look forward to which we will never see if we close each other's eyes.
32:11Sit.
32:26In honor of your family.
32:30Business before pleasure.
32:45Come on.
33:00Primo.
33:01Never buy samples.
33:03Price is 27.
33:05Our price is 25.
33:08And we'll test a key at random.
33:13What count my money?
33:15When we make the exchange.
33:18Here?
33:20Five o'clock.
33:22Three o'clock.
33:23And we'll tell you where?
33:25At ten before three.
33:28When we call you.
33:30It's not how I do business.
33:33Well, here's how we do business.
33:36You'll have two cars.
33:39Two drivers.
33:41You'll drive the car with the cocaine in the trunk.
33:45My partner will drive the car with the money in the trunk.
33:50You'll park the cars trunk to trunk.
33:54And exchange keys.
33:59We'll call you.
34:01You'll have ten minutes to get there.
34:04Ten minutes and thirty seconds.
34:07And we're history.
34:09Look.
34:13If you won't do business here, why don't you stay and have a drink?
34:23Because we're not thirsty.
34:26Because we're not thirsty.
34:28So what do we do business?
34:29We're not thirsty.
34:31Let's eat.
34:33We're smoking.
34:34We're drinking.
34:35We're smoking.
34:36We're drinking.
34:37Come on.
34:38We're smoking.
34:39You got a drink.
34:40You got a drink.
34:41All right?
34:42I'll drink.
34:43Let's eat.
34:44Come on.
34:45So what's going on?
34:46Let's eat.
34:47I'll drink.
34:48Come on.
39:19I'll thank you later.
39:35Yeah!
40:05Okay, tower, I'm on the approach.
40:08I'm losing a little power on number two.
40:11We'll be below the slope, but we're into the layer.
40:14It's no big problem.
40:15It's probably just a pump.
40:18Yeah, I'll have them spread a handkerchief for you.
40:21They're about six miles south, I don't need the white hanky and fixed itself.
40:35I don't need the white hanky and fixed itself.
40:48Yep, they just made the drop and they're coming in.
40:57We're on.
40:59We're on.
41:02We're on.
41:02We're on.
41:04We're on.
41:11One, gonna be in.
41:13We're on.
41:14We're on.
41:15Okay.
41:16One, two, three.
41:16It's wrapping up the government
41:19Say, Colombia and Peru
41:21You ask any DEA man
41:24He'll say, there's nothing we can do
41:26But the office of the president
41:28Right down to me and you
41:31You, you, you
41:34It's a losing proposition
41:37But one you can't refuse
41:40It's the politics of contraband
41:43It's the smuggler's blue
41:46Smuggler's blue
41:51I'm talking about hard days of night
42:05Tell me about it
42:06Leading to nowhere
42:06Yeah, we're smuggling 40 keys
42:09Almost get wasted by a half a dozen banditos
42:13Had to deal with Grocero and Lieutenant Toto
42:16Set ourselves up as bait
42:19And for what?
42:21Is any of our people
42:23On this side of the fence
42:24Bothering to crawl out of the woodwork?
42:26No
42:27Welcome home, fellas
42:40I bet this one works out a lot
42:51Get the gravy, pal
42:53This one's tough
42:55This one's got a soft spot
42:59We got a finger on it
43:04You took your wife out of the motel this afternoon
43:20We put her back for 500 grand
43:25Take the coke
43:28It's worth twice that
43:30We ain't in the coke selling business
43:33We're in the cash business
43:36Got three hours to raise it
43:39Hold it, baby
43:43Jimmy, my man
43:47We'll cut you in on this, too
43:49Tell him to put down the gun
43:52Do it
43:59Get out of the way
44:06Take it easy, man
44:11I'm okay
44:12Get the medics out here
44:14Where is she?
44:18I don't know
44:19I don't know
44:20I don't know
44:21You better know
44:22You better know
44:23I swear that's not my end of it
44:25Then who knows where she is
44:26I don't know how to do it
44:28I just wait for a phone call
44:29Where?
44:30I don't know
44:31Where?
44:37Yeah
44:38Yeah, they'll have the cash for three hours
44:41Yeah
44:43They'll be waiting for your call
44:50At the motel room
44:51We got here as fast as we could
44:59Uh, don't matter anyway
45:01The guy uses a mobile phone
45:02Hey, Lieutenant
45:03You find Trudy yet?
45:04Yeah, we're still working on the triangulation
45:06Crockett
45:06Great
45:09All right, where are you?
45:28Hey, guys
45:29Anything?
45:32We don't even know if there's anybody watching or inside
45:35Or there is a bomb
45:36Well, I don't see any wires
45:39That doesn't mean anything
45:40You could have a nuclear bomb in there
45:42And I wouldn't know about it
45:43How about storming the trailer?
45:46Not enough cover for a fast entry
45:48If anyone's guarding the hostage
45:50We could lose her
45:50Let me go in
45:53Tell me what you need
45:55I need to get in there
45:57Look, Lieutenant
45:58If I have to disarm anything
45:59Even remotely sophisticated
46:01Two hours ain't exactly
46:02Leaving time for a coffee break
46:04I'll be his backup
46:05I'm used to going alone
46:08No way, pal
46:09I'm taking you in
46:11If there's somebody in there with her
46:13I want it
46:13Please, let me go in there
46:18Crockett, take him in

47:52Let's go.
48:23It's Sam and Sonny.
48:26Don't move.
48:29Don't talk.
48:31I'm right here, Trudy.
48:33This noise you're hearing is some anti-static plastic.
48:46Go around me.
48:49Stay off the carpet.
48:50We're in.
49:07What's it look like?
49:14We're looking at a radio control device and an anti-motion device.
49:20They've got her tied to a vibration-sensitive device.
49:26A trembler.
49:28Touch it wrong, breathe on it, almost any kind of movement or wallpaper.
49:35Just listen a minute.
49:40Just listen a minute.
49:42You'll be getting a call from Mr. Morales in about 30 minutes.
49:46Right.
49:46Just let it ring for your switchboard till we pick it up.
49:49You got that?
49:52Bye-bye.
49:55The motel's been notified, so the call will definitely come through here.
49:59Trudy, I think you could hold that pretty leg of yours still for just a second.
50:23What's the situation?
50:30Small problem here.
50:34She's shaking like a leaf.
50:38Look, we're just going to sit here and talk for a while.
50:45You scared?
50:47Mm-hmm.
50:50It's okay.
50:53Me, too.
50:59You want to hear about our trip to South America?
51:04Castillo, we know that guy's going to have a radio detonator.
51:09And the second he gets what he wants, he's got to blow that trailer with everyone inside.
51:17That's right.
51:21So you're going to have to stall him.
51:23Morales.
51:39Say again, man.
51:40I can't hear you.
51:41Cut the stall.
51:42I'll put the money in a bag.
51:44Take it to the South Beach Bridge.
51:46A boat will be there in exactly 20 minutes.
51:48Drop the money into the boat.
51:55It's going down.
51:57Take three units.
51:59Cover the bridge.
52:00You're on.
52:01Get out of there.
52:02Yeah, it was just beautiful.
52:11Hold the trembler.
52:20Don't let it touch muddle.
52:27So peaceful and mellow, calm, and quiet.
52:42Something is, because he'll be dead.
52:43That's it.
52:56Okay.
52:58All right.
52:59All right.
53:01Good.
53:02All right.
53:08All right.
53:09Let's go.
53:39Just lovely.
53:58Lieutenant, I see the boat.
54:01Did you get Trudy out?
54:02No.
54:04What the hell should I do?
54:05If you don't give him the money, he'll blow the house.
54:08If I do give him the money, he's going to blow the house anyway.
54:13What the hell should I do, man?
54:20Time is up.
54:21I'm here.
54:22You're there.
54:23It's your call.
54:24You're there.
54:54Oh, my God!
55:10Freeze!
55:11Miami Vice!
55:15If my finger leaves this button, the girl is dead.
55:21It's all over.
55:23Nobody has to be hurt.
55:25Just turn off the switch and put it down.
55:27What I'm gonna do is climb over the side, get in the water,
55:31and we're gonna right this one off.
55:33It's not gonna happen.
55:35Look around you.
55:53Oh, my...
55:59To hell with you, man. To hell with all of us.
56:01Oh, my God!
56:03Oh, my God!
56:05Oh, my God!
56:09Oh, my God!
56:11Oh, my God!
56:13Oh, my God!
56:15Good job.
56:30Yes, Sonny?
56:33We're okay.
56:34We're all okay.
56:39Santa Maria, madre de Dios.
56:45We're all right.
57:09Lieutenant Jones.
57:11Who is he?
57:13He's our Miami Dolphin fan.
57:16I'm a side lieutenant.
57:19Takes all kinds.
57:22I can smell them, but I can't understand them.
57:25What is there to understand?
57:27Reason. Motivation.
57:35Bottom line is Zimmo any wide.
57:41Usually is.
57:43Never refuse.
57:45This politics of contraband.
