  2. Well, the “public” (aka the media) is mostly exaggerations, twisting of stories, or flat out lies/fabrications. So, I wouldn’t put too much credence in any of that. But, with personal relationships/friendships among people it’s best to try and help or support people that you know are struggling. We don’t always know what they’re going through or where they’ve come from/been to be causing or contributing to actions or thoughts. However, regardless of how complicated, difficult, or hurtful it might be...we can’t wallow in guilt (if you have or think you have done something bad) or self pity/poor me (if something bad has, or you think something bad has been done to you) forever. We can’t use whatever has happened as an excuse to act or say whatever we want, or not do/say what we don’t want to (but should). We’ve got to find a way/s to acknowledge whatever the issue is & deal with it. Continual destructive behavior or words are not “magically” justified just because we feel guilty or bad...especially if they continually hurt others around us. Evan sadly didn’t come to grips with this (or chose not to—I got the distinct impression that Sonny & others had tried to help him several times in the past, but he refused it) until it was too late. I feel bad for Evan...to an extent. Instead of dealing with & coming to grips with his guilt and self-hatred, he became “toxic” to everyone around him. This only makes things worse. I think Sonny & other cops that knew Evan would have forgiven him years before...they would’ve or did try to help him. But, he chose to forever wallow in his own guilt and self pity instead...and it sadly destroyed him.

  3. I tried to suss out the exact location and focused on the drive segment as the scene with the meet has no unique clues only trees and lot of car lights. I was baffled to realize the seeshore,i.e. an open beach very close left behind King´s Lamborghini, this means they come from the beach/from a dead end with some high vegetation to the right and stop after 50m again with high vegetation on the same side and low vegetation on the other and an open area in front of them. The Lamborghini uses a dirt road. Problem is: there is no location on whole southern part of KB that fits -because the only two dirt roads visible that come from the beach are southwest of the lighthouse and in this area is a stone wall in front of the sea, thus we would not be able to see the waves/the beach behind the Lamborghini. Th other parts to the west also have a wall or no trails to drive on and to the northeast there is no trail to drive either and the beach is too wide and the vegetation too low. I don´t think that was filmed there although location logistics of this episode and the woods/vegetation would fit.

  4. LAST UNKNOWN LOCATION FOUND? BURNETT KILLS SOMEONE SITE, 79th STREET CAUSEWAY/PELICAN HARBOR I just saw that this location is also marked with unknown at @C Glide´s an we speculated before about that location so I pick up this old case. I quickly realized that this cannot be filmed at Crandon Park marina on Key Biscayne as I thought at first. There is a causeway with traffic behind Crockett (moving light=car) and the shoreline to the left of that causeway in a 90 degree angle is nearly parallel but with some interruptions and has mostly very low lights (no highrises) and the shoreline is very long as the camera pans around. The cars are on grass, very close to the water just a tree between and a stone wall. This only leaves 79 Street Causeway/Pelican Harbor left. All other shorelines and causeways do not fit. Also the Spear house (gallery) at 9325 N. Bayshore is conveniently close. Also I tried to match some unique clues like the 2-3 story houses in the background and the interruptions in lights on the shoreline. All can be explained only with 79th street. On the 1986 historic aerial there are not trees in front of the water and it looks like a stony unpaved trail , but 2 years (86-October 88) is enough time to grow trees and get grass there. And we know there were stones in early 1989 from the short scene in Jack of all trades that filmed there too (but this scene was shot towards downtown=south and not towards the east and thus not showing this exact spot. very conclusive is the small water section behind Burnett which matches exactly with JFK causeway distance. Bottom line: 90% likelihood. Feedback appreciated.

  5. UNKNOWN LOCATION FOUND TUBBS HOTEL ROOM IN THE FAIRMONT (now Fairwind, 1000 Collins Ave) This location is marked with "unknown" on @C Glides page for the interior but the exterior shot is correctly marked with the Fairmont. I took a quick look and it is clear that they filmed that also internally there onsite. Three big clues: the small 3x1 block window behind Tubbs, which is pretty unique. I´ve never seen anything like this in other SoBe hotel rooms the distance between the small window and a second window which is out of frame but indirectly visible by its light cone. The wall between both windows is even, no corners or edges. the sunlight in this room (day light) only comes from the left which means room windows must go to the east/south or west and it´s not a corner room. Checking on the outside of the Fairmont, we find this unique small window with the same window dividers in two rows of possible room locations on the south side of the building (marked in my pic below) where the wall is even and the distance between both windows fits exactly. The window at the corner of Collins is not possible as there is a cornered edge in the middle between both windows which is missing in the room and the distance is not quite right too. Another small location off the list. UPDATE: I just found out that the Edison Hotel 960 Ocean Drive also has these small 3x1 block windows and 1 potentially fitting location for such a room (see last picture). Guess it´s a 50:50 chance then between these two as both hotels were used in that episode. There are no conclusive interior pics from both hotels rooms.
