just watched bad wolf and i've gotta say the throuple are really giving it their most. all of them having a dubious to good time until realising the cost of the games? jack having the time of his fucking life on the makeover show? lynda with a y, just generally?

brilliant, super, no notes.

and then when they thought rose was dead? OUGH. eccleston and barrowman ate and left no crumbs. the horror on their faces, jack's use of threat but not violence, the fact that he very definitely wanted to swear there. god, such acting.

great episode, no notes, love the digs made at people's fascination with watching bad things happen to other people.

“Harvey, behave.”

Episode 12 really has it all. Harvey losing his head and Mike having to keep him calm. Mike borrowing his phone and evidently doing it all the time. Them clearly thinking about what kind of Bonny and Clyde and they would’ve made…

Miami Vice S1E12: Little Prince

Bits and pieces of a good episode mixed with Rich People Heroin Drama.

GAYETY HAS A SEQUEL. GAYETY 2, HOMOEROTIC BOOGALOO

I have mixed feelings about Little Prince. I think it tells a similar story to Milk Run in a lot of ways, and Milk Run is a really stellar episode and this one is... fine? There's some really good bits (and actually, the little bits of physical comedy in this one are utterly delightful), but every time we go back to Sad Rich Boy Mark and his Awful Rich Father Mark I kind of check out.

Trudy is barefoot on the streets of Miami as this episode opens and like. I get it, girl, I get that you're trying to sell being a junkie, but maybe. Maybe don't do that.

A young Giancarlo Esposito makes the Surprised Pikachu Face when Gina and Trudy pull guns on him.

Rico dives on Sonny as soon as they enter the room with all the dealers, which is very sweet of him, but also like, facing drug dealers is your actual job, so also maybe a little bit of an overreaction

All of this is happening to the tune of Relax by the apocryphal Frankie, which is a song that was banned in its original form from radio because it was too much about gay sex and also banned from MTV in its original video form because it was too much about gay sex

What are we trying to say here, Vice

Also the working title of this episode was apparently White Bread and that kills me dead

When they arrest Mark, Tubbs seems to start playing good cop, except that he's very obviously being sincere. As a character, he has a real soft spot for kids, and is always trying to look for ways to get them out of whatever trouble they've gotten in. Sonny sees him doing this and immediately stops his usual Asshole Cop Who Makes Prison Rape Jokes schtick, looks at Tubbs for a long time, softens, and gives the kid a pen. He's clearly a little ashamed over his prior aggression, and follows Tubbs' lead on just. Y'know. Trying to be a good person.

Then, after Mark is picked up by his lawyers, Sonny has a straight up temper tantrum, and then blatantly changes his tune on the behavior we witnessed only a few seconds before. He straightens up, affects a tough guy attitude, and tells Tubbs it was a "nice touch" by "playin' good cop." Tubbs admits he wasn't "playing," and we know Sonny knows that, because he changed his own behavior in response to it. However, he can't admit that he was also trying to be kinder and more understanding, because he's embarrassed about his outburst and pissed off that his case got pulled out from under him. Sonny has to lie and pretend he's heartless here in order to make any of this acceptable, and he swallows that lie for the rest of the episode.

What, really, is polo

Why do we get like 3 straight minutes of it

Sonny follows Mark around at the polo match looking genuinely predatory-- he looks at Mark like he's a target, not a person. There's remorselessness behind his decision-making here-- he's doubling down on being "the bad cop," and he's so desperate to catch the high level drug dealers that he's willing to destroy Mark over it. (Or, perhaps more accurately, he thinks he's willing to destroy Mark over it.)

The little bits of physical acting as Trudy walks Sonny and Rico around the station cracks me up-- Gina, very gently rolling her eyes as Sonny sits on her desk, Sonny, gesturing like an elderly mobster as he's asked to stand up again, Rico deeply bored. It's cute.

All of the bits with Mark are just so soap opera-y

"I've never noticed.... how white this house is"

"I'm sending you to rehab" / "That's like sending me to jail! I'm not going!"

"Why can't you ever see things from my perspective" / "IT'S TOO DEPRESSING"

*rips shirt off crying to reveal wiretap*

It's fine it's fine it's fine that's all fine writing and not ridiculous melodrama right right right

Trudy attempts to tell Sonny and Rico that you really just can't send Old Money to jail because Lawyers and Rigged System and they're both like : ) : ) : ) but what if we can

Gina resting her chin on Trudy's shoulder so they can both look through the camera is too damn cute

There's a scene where Rico buys a hotdog in order to talk to a hotdog vendor about what he may have seen near a suspicious warehouse, and then immediately throws it away after leaving. I think this is, hilariously, the first indication we get that Tubbs is a vegetarian. Because no one has actually said the V word yet, though, the scene mostly just makes Rico look like a fussy snob who wastes food.

"I thought that being a Jorgenson was enough, something in our blood. Above it all. Above the law." Wow that is uhhh. That is a real blunt thesis re: the power of wealth, there

And then immediately after he says this, Mark Sr. starts crying about how he perpetuated the cycle of abuse and should probably have told his son he loved him or something

I really can't with the Marks Soap Opera

After Mark Sr. is arrested and Mark Jr. disappears, Tubbs starts to ask Sonny if they did the right thing. Sonny blinks, pauses, and lies baldly: yes. It was the right thing. It was "good, routine policework." Both of them know this isn't true, and the worst part is: in the grand scheme of Miami Vice, this episode actually is pretty close to "good, routine policework." They arrest the top guy. There's no bloody shootout. The law... kind of works?

And yet: it's still a lie, and it's the same lie Sonny tells Rico at the beginning of the episode, and the same lie he tells himself at the polo match. The system is corrupt, being a cop means propping up that system, and there will always be collateral damage, even in the cleanest of cases. The thesis of the show is right there from the very beginning-- it should come as no surprise that by season 5 these two men realize that the only moral option is to quit.

Also I am 99% certain that the implication was originally supposed to be that Mark Jr. died of an overdose or something, because there's like a 2-second coda after this conversation where he... gets in a Jeep? And some very obvious dubbing in post where Sonny says something corny like "Maybe now... he'll have a chance." I mean, it's nice that he doesn't die, but he was probably intended to.
