This episode gets off to a good start as Crockett and Tubbs taking part in an undercover drugs buy that turns into a fire fight. Rique, the dealer escapes with his girl friend Angel. Crockett and Tubbs give chase and finally catch up with them at a railway station; here there is another shoot out and Crockett kills Rique then makes the mistake of turning his back on Angel; a mistake he almost pays for with his life as she shoots him in the chest as he turns round. He is taken to hospital to be operated on then as the rest of the team get there we are 'treated' to various memories of him... this of course means only one thing: we are in for a clip show. For the rest of the episode we see a variety of clips from previous episodes intertwined with a few scenes where they discuss where Angel might have escaped to.
After a start that promised to be classic Miami Vice; two shootouts separated by a car chase and a Phil Collins song; it is a shame that this episode turned into a clip show; it would have been so much better if it had just concentrated on the search for Angel with periodic updates about Crockett's condition. The clips contained quite a few good action moments but taken out of context they weren't as exciting as when they were originally shown.
