This week on Miami Vice: Valerie Gordon is back! Sadly, it's due to very unpleasant circumstances. Her childhood best friend Yvonne (CCH Pounder) is struggling with addiction and dealing with a violent dealer named Swain. Valerie flies into Miami after receiving a worrisome call from her Goddaughter, Lynette, and tries to help out Yvonne, but, things only unravel more once Swain is not content with taking Yvonne's money and dealing with her late payments. He suggests something very sinister, her daughter, which Yvonne agrees to. Yvonne ends up dead and Lynette is refusing to ID Swain or talk to anyone about what happened, which tickles Sonny's Spidey senses. Switek descends back into gambling, while Rico, the only happy person in this epsiode - albeit momentarily - can't see the forest through the trees because he's just so excited to have Valerie back. As the title of the episode suggests, will it be too late for them?

S05 E19: Line of Fire
This week on Miami Vice: How do you do, fellow kids? In this spinoff attempt, Joey is back with some other "kids" (actors in their late 20s and early 30s) as part of the "Young Criminals Unit" to infiltrate the shady world of a professor and his mysteriously dying students. These deaths have him and a super strong drug in common, and it's up to the newcomers to stop him before it's too late. Production quality and character writing (um, big bomb dropped about Crockett is abandoned quickly) be damned, let's try and spin Miami Vice off into the 90s.

S05 E18: Miracle Man
This week on Miami Vice: There's a new sheriff in town, and he designs his own t-shirts! Vice deals with a rogue vigilante named Miracle Man (José Pérez in some Michael Mann casting), who is interfering with their busts while a TV reporter comes in with a crew - and also the Commissioner's blessing - to try and grab footage for a reality show about undercover officers. Suprise, surprise, things do not go well! We learn more about Miracle Man's motives to keep the streets of Miami clean, as the news crew led by Eric Terry (Zach Grenier) stoop to new lows in their quest to get the footage they want.
