Miami Vice (1984–1989): Season 2, Episode 6 - Junk Love - full transcript

When Crockett & Tubbs bust the owner of a bordello (Miles Davis), they discover that one of his drug-addicted prostitutes is the object of a powerful drug dealer's obsession.

This is a fantastic place.

Are you sure
you got girls like this?
Yeah, we got girls like that.

And like this?
Like that.

Mmmm-mmm!

Who is she? She is hot.

She's so hot, she's already
boiling, waiting on you.

What about her?
Her?

Frenchy La Flame.

Is this gonna go down or what?

Any time.
Rico's on the inside.

Hey, you know what?
I sure would like to have
one of these for myself.



Most people would.
Nigerian.

No kidding. So am I.

That's how I got my name.
I used to bring this stuff in.

You know, pure,
ivory snowflakes.

Snowflakes so pure,
like your girls?

Right, every single one.

Ready?
I'm ready.

Frenchy.

Get her there.

You sure?
Yeah.

Really sure?

I'm positive, man.

She's got real good hands,
you know what I mean?

Right.



Oh, I like that.

Where is he wearing
his mic anyhow?
You don't want to know.

Yeah, but what happens when
he takes all his clothes off?

I'm turning in my headset.

Hello, Rico.

She sounds very nice.

What's a four-lettered
word for "dirt"?

Mud... sand. Sand. Sand.

What about a little trip?

Crockett, we need some backup
right away.

Get in.

She bit me.

She bit me!

What did you
do to her, huh?

I threw her in the mirror.
Gave her a good look
at herself.

Well, that's very bad luck.
Seven years' worth of it.

Ivory, I need
some help in here.

What's happening?

He threw one of your girls
into a mirror.
She bit me!

What do you want me to do,
call the cops?

Get out of here.

Let's go check.

Hey, where you going?
She bit me.

Get down there. Get down!

Gina, if he moves,
bite him again.

You got it.
She bit me.

He said you got
carried away and bit him.

What's your name?

No name?

Hey, come on.
Everybody's got a name.
Not that one.

Rico, you need any help?
No.

Who are you guys?

Miami Vice, pal.

Dirt, that's your name.

That's it.
What?

"vice."

Don't tell him.

Please.

Please.

Don't tell him.

Can't get her to stop crying.
She just keeps saying,
"Don't tell him."

Him?
I don't know.

She make any phone calls?

No, she doesn't want to.

She's really strung out.

What do we got
in the other room?
Some guy named Ivory.

Ivory.

Excuse me, Lieutenant.
We got a problem.

Heavy leakage
from Radio Marti.

Tubbs didn't make it
through the anti-Castro rap.

That's what happened.
How it happened
is another question.

Bottom line?
Zip.

Doesn't matter.

We've got something better.
We've got Ivory Jones.

Retired smuggler.

He used to work
for Juan Carlos Silva.

I'll get Silva's file.

So she offered you a trip?

Do I look like
a travel agent?

You used to do
a lot of traveling.

You two know each other?

That's Ivory Jones.

Ivory arranged passports
for Vietnamese women
during the war.

Married them to military men,
$5,000 apiece.

Then he brought them in
to work the brothels.

Check the passports
of all the girls at his club.

Yeah, but I'm pure now.

Yeah.

Just like cocaine.

Before it's been stepped on.

How's your friend Silva?

Former friend.

We came to a parting of ways.

It looks like you still have
something in common.

Like what?

Rosella Maestres.

The girl who would be Jaws?

What's her connection
with Silva?

Ask her.

Count on it.

What is your relationship
to this man?

We know who he is
and what he does.

The hospital notified him
that you're here.

Juan Carlos Silva...

is dead to me.

That's fine.

Who is he?

I hate him.

I grew up in his house.

Does he know
that you're tricking...

for Ivory Jones?

No.

I ran away from Silva
and Berto...

and their games, the horses,
the cars, the boats.

Berto?

Roberto Penaro.

Silva's prot?g?,
the other man in the picture.

Frankenstein's monster.

Silva has been grooming him
to take over the business.

So...

you went over to Ivory Jones
to punish Silva.

Is that it?
No.

To escape, to hide.
To hide?

In a massage parlor? Right.

No, you did it.

And you made a point
of doing it for Silva.

You wanted to push it into
his face, you wanted to
punish him, didn't you?

No.

Chill out, buddy.

Sounds to me
like a rough deal.

When did you
buy the monkey?

About six months ago...

when...

while I was still
with Silva.

My first attempt to escape.

I want to quit, I do.

I just....

I just need it.

I could use a shot now.

I want to help you.
Take it easy. Relax.

It'll pass, trust me.

Just one, please.

Just relax.

If you wanna help,
you gotta start
by dealing with the monkey.

I need just one more.

You need to make
some decisions.

It's not that simple.
You don't understand.

Hang in there.

You're gonna be okay.

You gotta have a little faith.

Visiting hours are over,
gentlemen.

I thought that visiting hours
ended in about a half an hour.

They end when I say so.

Besides, she needs to sleep.

I think she meant it. I think
she does wanna work with us.

Well, if you ask me,
Rosella's a spoiled brat...

who could be real nightmare
to work with.

You don't like flowers?

Where have you been?

You're looking more and more
like Se?or Silva every day,
Berto.

What else did you bring?

Poppies. Want some?

Get out of here.

You can't quit cold turkey.

You got to taper it off.

Just one hit.

These are surveillance
photographs...

of the funeral
of Enrico Acalde.

Last month,
courtesy of the Untouchables.

Feds have been trying to
get to Silva for about
a year and a half now...

but he covers
his tracks too well.

Who was Acalde?

Silva's business partner,
and Rosella's intended.

No wonder she's trying
to kill the pain.

Natural causes?

Yeah, congenital car bomb.

Over the past six months,
there's been
a number of deaths...

accidental and otherwise,
in Silva's organization.

FBI thinks it could be
internal purge.

Well, that's one way
to cover your tracks.

Right, kill the lawn
to get to the weeds.

This is what Rosella meant
by "Silva's games."

The man is
a competition junkie.

And Roberto Penaro was taught
to be his main competitor.

Cars, boats, planes,
soldiers of fortune...

always trying to top
each other. Apparently,
it gets dangerous.

Oh, like me and Lar?

Oh, please.

Yeah, Penaro's
the one we think...

that slipped Rosella
out of the hospital
last night.

Took her back
home sweet home.
Against her will?

She said
she wanted to help us.

She would have said
anything, man,
to feed that monkey.

Anything.

It doesn't matter.

We have a line on Silva,
and I don't want
to let it slip away.

Can we trust Rosella
not to interfere?

Worth a try.
No.

Monkey or no monkey,
I think we can work
with this girl.

I mean,
we don't have a choice, man.
We got to take the chance.

Even if she blows our cover
to Silva, so what?

Maybe we'll get some movement
on this guy.

A trade, is that it?

You were always
a good trader, Ivory.

Three of the girls...

that are working for you are
in this country illegally.

I've talked to Immigration.

They say any service
you can render...

may alter their view of you.

So what do you want from me?

Juan Carlos Silva.

You're crazy.
I was lucky to
get out of there alive.

So crazy you could afford
to turn out Rosella?

He'd be interested
in that.

So what do you want?

I want you to go back
to work for him.

I want to know when, where,
and how he moves his drugs.

Then I want you to bring in
one of our men with you.

And you'll cover me
with the girl?

What's bringing you down, man?
The girl...

being back with this guy.
I feel sorry for her.

Come on,
this ain't exactly no ghetto.

I don't think this is just
another screwed-up
junkie rich girl, Rico.

She wanted out,
she must have had a reason.

Something really heavy
is going on with her.

I don't know what it is,
but I got a bad feeling
about it.

Hey, don't sweat it, man.

Living is easy.
Dig the house.

I'm glad you're back.

I'm not.

I was just passing by
and I saw you.

You're beautiful, Rosella.
You disgust me.

Let me go.
You're so hot.

Let me go.
I've told Roberto everything.

He said that
if you touch me again,
you'd have to answer to him.

Roberto?

Roberto is a little boy.
He can't control me
any more than you can.

What if I tell him
to kill you?

He'd do it for me.

You're hurting me.

Come on, give me one kiss.
No.

You promised no more.

I promised no more
if you didn't wish.

You're hurting me.
One kiss.

One.

One.

Ivory says it's never
the same way twice.

Open-sea buoy with a bale
of felony powder...

and a radio homing device.

Boat to boat...

boat to land.

A hundred and one ways
to move contraband.

And this is a beach.

Very funny.

I'm tired, man.

When I get tired,
I get weird.

Why don't we just bust
these chumps on the first run?

Come on, Rico...

you don't think Silva's
dumb enough to be
hanging out with this relay.

Do you?

Here they come, chief.
Good.

I don't get it.

Is he cheating us?
No.

I don't get it.
You don't have to.

A good trip.
A very good trip.

Why don't you wear a neon sign
and advertise that we're here?

Maybe next time I will,
old man.

Getting timid, eh?

Rosella doesn't think so.

One more trip.

One more trip,
and I bet you
a bottle of Dom...

I can go out and come back
in seven minutes, huh?

Expensive tastes
that you got.

Who gave them to me?

$50,000.
Don't drop them in the ocean.

Small change.

Let's go.

Catch of the day.

Let's get out of here.

You know, it seems
an awful waste of talent.
I thought you liked him.

I did.
Is this thing rigged up?

I rigged
the briefcase myself.

Ladies and gentlemen,

if you'll turn your attention
to lot 27 in your program...

we have
the distinct good fortune
to be able to offer...

a one of a kind
92-foot motor yacht...

specifically designed
for the discriminating
offshore hunter.

Launched in the spring of 1984
at Saint Petersburg...

the Pirouette features
four double state rooms...

the master state room
and a fly bridge bar...

all elegantly presented
in a surrounding....

Are you sure
Silva's gonna show?

Sure. I'm telling you,
Silva will show.

This guy
was his competition...

and the narcs busted him.

Now he has to sell
some of his fleet to pay off
some of his legal fees.

So Silva's sticking it
to him by buying some
of his moving parts.

Hardball in the big leagues.

Is there any problem
with you reconnecting
back with this dude?

Easy.

He always said
I had good timing...

and it seems that
some of his buddies
met with a few accidents.

Oh, right.

Yeah, no kidding.

We caught that.
We heard.

Yeah, I figured you guys
knew all about that.

Firsthand.

You find out
who got cremated?

Not enough parts
to put back together.

It was Roberto.

Hey, would he
tell you that?

No, his boat's missing,
he's missing,
some of his crew is missing.

Dig that.

"The Iceman cometh."

Lot 28, the Lauderdale Lady.

Launched in Fort Lauderdale
on the 4th of July...

this freedom-minded,
custom-designed...

and outfitted 61-foot
motor yacht...

is currently
berthed right here
in the Miami Marina...

for instant and convenient
delivery to this afternoon's
top bidder.

Well, apparently,
he hasn't spread
the news yet.

I wonder what he's gonna
tell Rosella when he does.

He's gone fishing,
or something silly like that.

Yeah, I'm still
concerned about what
she's gonna tell him.

...3-foot retractable
earth station.

Watch that big cabin cruiser.

He has a thing about them.

What's the deal?
They're not fast
or even pretty.

The cockpit has undergone....

King-size bed
in the master cabin.

The captain's wheel
is six centuries old...

and was retrieved from
a Spanish trade vessel.

We're going to start
the bidding at $200,000.

Mr. Frederick?

We'll open the bidding
at $200,000.

And I have $200,000.
$225,000, please.

$225,000, I have.
Going for $250,000, please.

$250,000 for the lovely
Lauderdale Lady.

$250,000. $275,000, please.

$215,000.

$275,000, I have.
Going $300,000.
$300,000, I have.

He's a sore loser.
So am I.

$325,000, please, for
the lovely Lauderdale Lady.

$325,000.

$350,000, please.

Look, you better not
push too far.

Do I see $350,000? I do.

He might leave you holding.

Get him to buy it
for lots and lots of money.

Secret to success, Rico...

whether it's women or money...

is knowing when to quit.

$450,000....

I ought to know,
I'm divorced and broke.

$415,000...

for the lovely
Lauderdale Lady.

And I have $475,000.

$475,000 once,
$475,000 twice...

sold!

And the Lauderdale Lady
goes right over there.

Thank you, Mr. Frederick.

Now, ladies and gentlemen,
if you'll turn
your attention...

to lot 31 ...

located on page 12.

You sure he's not into guys?

He's flashing his big browns.

He loves competition.

He likes to challenge
young guys...

and then destroy them.

Well, he's come
to the right neighborhood.

The game begins.

From Mr. Silva.

He regrets
you had to lose out
at the auction.

Give that to the fish.

Send Mr. Silva a magnum
with my compliments.

The name's Burnett.

Mr. Burnett wishes you
to have this with
his compliments.

Which gentleman is he?

You like competition, Sonny?

Is there anything else?

I bet you like the horses.

Considerably more
than they like me.

What I really like is
offshore boat racing.

I've got a Scarab.
That's a nice toy.

You've made some interesting
new friends, Ivory.

It's a matter of timing.

I've got a toy of my own.
Perhaps you and I could race.

Sure, why not?

We could lay out
a 10-mile course...

I'll give you
a half-mile head start.

Hey, you know...

you remind me of
a prot?g? of mine,
Roberto Penaro.

I'd like to meet him sometime.

Tonight I'm having some people
over to the house.

Perhaps you and your friends
would like to join us.

Roberto should be back
from fishing by then.

I've made other plans.

We'd love to.

A man should always
have plans, Ivory.

I'm pleased
you could join us.

We wanted to be here.

Ahh! That's the secret, to want.

Then anything
in life is possible.

That's easy for you
to say.

Come with me.

You know what that is?

Looks like an original.

That's my history.

That's the house
where I was born...

where I slept with
my brothers and sisters...

and the chickens,
and the dogs,
and the goats.

Now they're all on canvas.

Must be worth about $200,000.

Maybe a little bit more.

So you see,
nothing that you truly want
is impossible.

So tell me, where is this
hotshot you call prot?g?...

this Roberto?

He's still fishing.

Rosella will show you
around our home...

and we'll talk later.

So the pool room,
the screening room...

the bowling alley....

How about the rose garden?

Lighten up.
We're your friends,
remember?

I hate his world.

We believe you.
Or we'd like to believe you.

If I didn't hate him,
I would tell him who you are.

And we'd tell him
where we met.

And then nobody
would be very happy.

Why don't you get lost?

If you hate Silva,
why are you here?

Get lost.

You didn't do much
about killing the monkey.

I guess I just need more
to kill the pain.

Does it?

No.

What do you say
you show me around?

Ivory's helping you,
isn't he?

He made some introductions.

It doesn't matter who you hurt
to get what you want, does it?

Does it matter to you
that Silva killed Roberto?

No!

That's not true!

There's a war going on.
Another smuggler....

Valenzuela killed Roberto...

and the others, and Enrico.

The man you were
going to marry.

God, I hate this.

Rosella,
you've got to stay strong.

You can't blow this thing.

Lives are on the line here.

Don't worry about me.

You know how I feel
about Silva.

Which brings us back
to my partner's question.

Why do you stay with him?

Why don't you leave?
Why don't you get out?

His money holds me.

I don't believe that
for a New-York minute.

There's something else
that holds you here.

I can feel it. What is it?

I'm afraid you wouldn't
like me very much
if I told you.

I already don't like myself.

A little voyeurism?

I'm sorry.

I got a little carried away.

Your home is magnificent.

So is she, huh?

Very photogenic.

She knows the cameras
are there. She knows
I like to watch her.

Strange games.

Something like that.

I'm pleased that we have
this opportunity
to talk privately.

I think I'd like to do
some business with you
and your friend.

Perhaps you'd
be interested?

Well, that all depends.

Good.

Let me tell you
what I have in mind.

Fun party, huh?

Dog-day night, Rico.

If we weren't here
on bigger business...

I'd run all these sports fans
into the city pound.

Hey, stop barking, man.

Compliments of Se?or Silva.

No, we're cool.

I gave myself
a nosebleed last night.

Give mine to that dog
on the right over there.

He looks like
he needs it.

Not as much as I do.

Mum's the word.

I talked to Silva.

We're in.

He wants us to pick up
a little package for him.

How's his little princess?

Living downtown again.

She's in way over her head.

And what about you?

Don't worry about Rosella.
I can handle her.

She wants to help us.

She wants to get away
from Silva.

So why doesn't she?

I think it's simple.

Silva worships her,
and she digs it.

Got to be more than that.

She'll hold.

Come on,
I've seen enough of this.

Let's get the hell
out of here.

This is the pits.

Rosella.

Let go of me.

What are you gonna do?

What are you gonna do,
run to Berto?

Where's Berto now
that you need him?

I'll leave you.

How?

In my car?

I can make money.

I earned lots of money...

Yeah?
...while I was away.

What kind of money
can you earn
in this condition?

If I were you....

If I were you...

honey...

I'd ask Ivory Jones.

Hurry up, Stan.

I don't know how
fish can stand this.

That's why they
call them fish.

I hope Castillo doesn't
pick up Radio Marti
with these things again.

He won't, not this time.

Where did you run off to?

Don't you know
it's bad form for a host
to leave his party early?

It's time to come out
of the cold.

I'm not cold.

You're stoned again,
aren't you?

Let go of me.
What's wrong with you?

Listen, I'm tired of you
going off with
your young friends...

and having
your romantic chatter...

and your little adventures,
you understand?

You like to watch.

Come on,
get out of the pool.

You're just jealous.

You're jealous of anybody
who comes near me.

I'm jealous? Jealous of what?

You love me.

You always have
and you always will,
do you understand that?

What have you done now?

I want you to see
how this looks on you.

Come on, let's go.

What are we doing back at
Ivory's place, Rosella?

I didn't want
to tell Silva about it.

I just wanted to hurt him.

Like I said,
why are we here?

I told him last night
about Ivory.

About Ivory...

and this place.

How he took care of me...

and how I....
What did Silva do?

This is Ivory's.

He never took it off.

Silva brought it to me.

Ivory's dead because of me.

Like Roberto, Enrico...

and the others.

Silva's so jealous.

You gave him a lot
of cause to be, right?

Sometimes.

This is not a game.

What does this have to do
with Crockett?

Silva thinks I like Sonny.

What do you want us to do?

Warn him.

Call off the bust.

It's a little late
for that.

Just call it off.

Do you think Silva
put her up to it?
Maybe.

Or maybe
she's telling the truth.

Crockett and Tubbs
should be notified.

They may be also
on Silva's hit list.

There's something
they ought to know.

I don't blame her for lying,
not when the truth
is this sick.

There, that's the one. Right
where Silva said it would be.

I don't understand
why you brought me.

You've been
playing games again.

You were talking to those
two policewomen last night.

You trying to set me up?
No.

No, never.
No never is right.

Because I play
the game too well.

And now you're going to
watch me play this out.

Hey, Crockett, be cool.
This thing could
be a booby trap.

Why are we switching boats?

When they play their games,
Rosella, I play mine.

Lieutenant, Silva's boat's
dead in the water.

Let me look.

They must have switched boats.
Call Crockett.

Nothing here.

Tubbs, do you read? Tubbs.
Yeah. I read you.

We lost him.
You're on your own.

There's no smack out here.

It's a hit!
Get out.

Crockett! Come on,
get back in the boat!
We lost our backup!

I could have your lives
in a second.

Please, no! Don't do this!

Don't! Please!

No dope, no arrests!

No witnesses, and no backup!

Just two dead Vice cops
in the open sea!

Please.

Why not?

Wouldn't they kill me
if they had the chance?

They would!

Yes, they would.

But I won't.

He's crazy.

Yeah, but he's got
the machine guns.

It's a trick! Isn't it?

Yeah, maybe.

But to show you
how much I love you...

and to show you
how foolish it is...

to want to leave me....

I love you, so I'm gonna
spare your friend.

Don't you see now,
my love for you?

Love?

You call what you've done
to me love?

I call this love.

I know in your heart...

I know that you love me.

Go on, Rosella.
If you don't love me,
you kill me.

No! No.

She can't. You can't do it,
can you?

Go on, Rosella, you kill
your own flesh and blood.

You murder your father.

Goodbye, Daddy.
