Location list for this episode (we know all of them) prepared two days before filming, 2 locations not decided yet (was then 6301 Pinetree Drive according to daily report day 5).

Here are the dailies for this episode. 7 days filming from 24 July to 1 August 1986. 

Day 1: filming at the beach in front of and at the Waldorf Towers (dinner and exterior, the interior crime/bedroom scene was filmed at the Kaplan house later)

Day 2: all scenes at the consulate, the laywer office and the social security. Very interesting on the flip side the exact times they moved/started/ended one scene and changed to the next. e.g. Scene 22 Famiglia office start filming at 10.20pm, last shot at 11.25pm.

 

Day 3: the airstrip scenes and then moved in the afternoon to the nearby farm for the Colombian scenes.

Day 4: Kaplan house and the interior of Angelas bedroom (crime scene)

Day 5: scenes at all the parents homes (same location, newly decided to film at 6301 Pinetree Drive, Miami Beach): the DeMarco house, the Neville door scene and then moved to the Colombian´s apartment with the bomb. 

Day 6: Waldorf Towers and studio scenes (hospital and air vent)

Day 7: studio 

and finally 22 August 86 (3 weeks later, 2nd Unit shoot): studio filming of the explosion scene. PMTs double Ernie Robinson suffered severe leg burns and was brought to hospital. (He later had to stop working as stunt double due to this injury).
