Come on, Tubbs. You shouldn't be finding this amusing! This is true! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think they were purposely trying to scare Bob, to get him to talk...by trying to get him to understand what prison would be like, and that his wife might not stick around if he went there. I don’t really think Tubbs or Crockett found any of it amusing in reality...but they had to play the parts to get the info they needed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubbs was smiling with glee just to let Bob think he wasn't getting any sympathy from either of them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami Beau Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 3 hours ago, Eillio Martin Imbasciati said: Oh yeah, I'm sure Bob ended up fine (We just know he didn't have any bad intentions, just did the wrong favor), and I agree that Crockett had to be rough. As others have mentioned before, Crockett was always able to gear down and read people and the situation as it was, instead of being stubborn. I think both Crockett & Bob ended up serving each other well. From my studies and observations on the show, I’d have to say this is one of the rare times Crockett acts like this in Season 1. It’s not just that he’s rough with Bob, but there seemed to be this brash attitude Crockett had that was kinda out of character. In this scene Crockett lacked the calm professionalism we would usually see and was more gunhoe about the situation. Im just talking about this scene. Crockett goes back to his usual self after this. Great episode, very dark a d great music from Jan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdiegolo78 Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I liked this episode and it's a solid 8/10 for me. The intro was on of the best from S1, especially the 'Gaiety burlesque' bit and Gina & Trudy shopping for clothes. C&T playing 'bad cops' to scare the guy at the warehouse was gold. Crockett goes to jail for contempt of court for the first time. Something wrong with editing during towards the end when C&T rush to save Gina. I noticed some stock footage of Miami night life: Tubbs nearly gets shot again since the pilot 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicefan7777 Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 A very serious and enjoyable episode. Gena gives a gut wrenching performance. Burt Young is terrific as a villain. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gina was brilliant. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
