Miami Vice S1E17: Rites of Passage
Tubbs' old flame Valerie arrives in Miami hoping to find her sister.
At the beginning of the episode, when Zito and Switek are failing to fix the bug van, Tubbs suggests it's possessed and then laughs like the fucking Crypt Keeper, and it is absolutely delightful
Sonny looks like a kicked puppy when Rico wanders over to see Pam Grier
There's a lot going on with the reunion between Val and Tubbs. He's clearly thrilled to see her, but her initial reaction is doubtful at best and actively distressed at worst-- she's not interested in whatever he's selling. When they go for a walk together, he is immediately very familiar and frankly somewhat possessive-- he asks her why she didn't call him when she's been in Miami for 2 weeks, and when she starts to explain he just doubles down on the questioning.
It's an interesting facet of his personality-- he's both very quick to assume a level of relationship seriousness with anyone he likes, and also incredibly pollyanna about being able to fix any problem in that relationship-- often to the point of both ignoring the other person's feelings and the reality of their situation. Tubbs is often framed as the "reasonable" one between himself and Crockett, but like... let's be serious, that's only because Crockett is a sad wet disaster man. Tubbs is also a huge fucking mess, especially when it comes to romance.
Sonny asks Val if "Tubbs abandoned her" and when she laughs and says no he asks "so when's your flight." He's not jealous or anything.
Gina, interestingly, bristles a little at Val in the handful of scenes they share together, but it's really not clear why.
There's a shopping-and-cocaine sequence with Val's little sister Diane set to Change Your Ways by Rockwell that is just spectacular-- it's beautifully shot, wonderfully choreographed, and just so, so cheerfully, bleakly ominous. It's a really classic bit of Vice cinematography, the kind that has been misremembered as empty MTV glitz but is in practice a quick, gutting image poem. "Well, have you considered the price of the life you want to live?" indeed.
John Turturro is in this one as a sleazebag pimp; we see his nipples
The scene where Tubbs and Crockett make stupid jokes about the nouveau riche and quiche kills me, because it's a perfect example of how they are truly only funny to each other
Sonny puts an entire sandwich in a woman's drink at a party while she is not looking.
Rico tells Val she could stay with him. Could she, Rico? Could she?? You 100% live in your car, baby, you are the only member of Vice Squad whose home we never see
The second "music video" sequence in this episode is set to I Wanna Know What Love Is by Foreigner; we watch Val and Tubbs have slightly-less-operatic-than-usual-for-Tubbs sex, and Diane gets murdered. Is it a little on the nose? Yes, absolutely. However, there's minor off-and-on distortions in the music-- little hiccups, like a warped record skipping-- that elevate it from borderline-didactic to genuinely creepy. From Tubbs' (and maybe-- but probably not-- Val's) perspective, the lyrics play themselves straight. From Diane's perspective, they become a prophecy-- Foreigner signs of love, "I better read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older;" Diane, too trusting, never gets the chance. We see Sonny, too, realizing he has to be the one to break the news-- that it's also a form of love to be willing to tell someone the truth even when it's going to hurt them.
(If you subscribe to the idea that it finally dawned on him in the previous episode that he cares a little more than he ought to for Rico-- well, it tracks with all his reactions throughout this one.)
When Val goes to leave, Sonny's first question is "is there anyone meeting you at Kennedy?" because despite everything, at his core Sonny is kind
Val does not return Rico's little kissy gesture : (
So how the hell does Sonny get Val out of the uh, y'know, the whole. Murder charges thing. She implies in the next episode she appears in that he "pulled some strings," but like. What strings, James Sonny Crockett? What strings did you pull that got Valerie "I 100% Shot This Guy In Cold Blood, Cuff Me Boys" Gordon out of prison???
Very smooth, though, getting your boyfriend's girlfriend out of jail. Smooth like your damn brain, Sonny

Happy Halloween everyone! Today we have three very special fics for you, and we also have created a questionnaire for you to fill in! This Google Form will be opened until late December, so we can hopefully create more content that's catered to your wishes in 2023!
In today's episode Mia will read all's well that ends better by @graceling-in-a-suit (AO3 / Fic Post) from 00:51 in the episode.
If Louis had ever dared to suggest that Halloween was his favourite holiday, he was paying for that dearly tonight.
AU: Louis goes to a Halloween party as a Hobbit and finds himself a Gandalf. Mix in Niall, Liam, and Zayn as Louis' meddling employees and you've got yourself a witch's brew.
Evi will read rapture by @allwaswell16 (AO3 / Fic Post) from 34:22 in the episode.
It was New Year's Eve in Victorian London, and a lonely vampire could no longer resist the stunning lamplighter he watched night after night.
Or, a vampire Harry fic because what says the holidays like Victorian vampires?
And Emmu will read the tricks and treats series by @homosociallyyours (AO3 / Fic Post) from 55:25 in the episode.
Louis is expecting a package, but the one he opens doesn't contain anything he ever thought he'd find in a box. When he realizes it was intended for his hot new neighbor, he definitely gets worried.
Harry gets a brilliant idea for a perfectly punny, boner-inspired Halloween costume. Putting it together might be dodgy, but he's sure it'll be worth it in the end.
It's Halloween and Louis runs into the last person he expects to see.
