Then we return inside the OCB (set).

Then we see Crockett and Tubbs driving over the bridge section of the Julia Tuttle Causeway.

Then we see Guzman’s place. 1415 North View Drive, Sunset Island 1.

It cuts between Guzman filmed on location at his place and C+T with Stan inside the van. This is set up to be near the house but most likely the van shots were filmed at the studio.

Then we go to the gym where Sykes is training.

This was filmed at the Bravo Gym, 3555 NW 18th Avenue, Allapattah.

Then we see C+T arrive at Giulinni’s place. The Tiffany Condos. As they pull in we see the Bal Harbour 101 Condos in the background. This is the second time we have seen these condos in Miami Vice. We first saw them in the opening of the Pilot, Brother’s Keeper.

Then we see the exterior establishing shot of Giulinni’s condo. Except that this is reused footage of the Turnberry from episode 13, Score/Golden Triangle. Not the Tiffany.

Then we go inside Giulinni’s, filmed on location at the Tiffany Condos.

Then we return to the OCB (set).

Then we see C+t arrive at Guzman’s. Only this is not new footage. This is reused footage from part 1. Where we see C+T arrive at Guzman’s for the very first time.

Then we see Stan deliver Giulinni a message at the Tiffany Condos.

Then we go to the mall. The town and Country Mall, 8505 Mills Drive, Kendall Florida.

We see Sordoni call Giullini from the mall.

Intercut we see Stan in the van struggling with what to do or not to do. This was most likely filmed at the studio.

“Betty please”. Then we see an exterior establishing shot of a coffee shop. Not just any coffee shop. This is the coffee shop that Lenny inherited in the 1970’s and early 80’s television show, Laverne and Shirley. From May 6, 1980, “The Diner” aka “Betty Please”. Lenny inherits a diner called Lazlo’s place and renames it; Dead Lazlo’s Place. In the screen capture below left we see it as it appears on Vice. Below right I have increased the adaptive lighting, lighting the shadows and revealing the evidence that confirms that it is Dead Lazlo’s Place. I have not tracked down the location of this California location yet but most likely in downtown Los Angeles.

Then we see Stan inside the cafe struggling with what to do. This was probably a studio set but I have not confirmed that yet.

He calls C+T at the OCB (set) from a phone booth. The booth was probably at the studio.

Then we see reused footage from episode 47, Killshot. They are eastbound over the 79th Street Causeway.

Then we see Stan headed toward Key Biscayne on the Rickenbacker Causeway.

Then we see Guznam arrive at the jewelry store/gambling center in the Town and Country Mall.

Then we see C+t westbound on the Rickenbacker Causeway on Virginia Key. They turn northbound toward Jimbo’s followed closely by Stan who must have missed the turn moments earlier when he had been eastbound.

Then we see the mechanics arrive at the Town and Country Mall.

Then we see Stan giving the Testarossa a run for the money as they are somehow back on the Rickenbacker Causeway headed west past the marine stadium.

They arrive at the mall in time to engage in a classic Miami Style, mall shoot out. Stan gets Guzman.

Then we cut to Watson Island where Crockett has the St. Vitus Dance tied up. They say goodbye to Larry and the episode ends.
