Then we see a nice sunset picture of the Miami Skyline from Bayside Marketplace. We see the distinctive pointed top of the Dade County Courthouse. This is reused footage from the Pilot: Brother’s Keeper (56:55).

Then we see Vicky and McIntyre on an apartment balcony having drinks. This was also filmed on Brickell Key at the Courvoisier Centre.

Then we go to the OCB where Tubbs steals some files. Filmed on set at Greenwich Studios.

Tubbs calls McIntyre. Both locations were likely sets at Greenwich Studios.

Then we go to Avilla’s Canal Street warehouse. In reality this was filmed on the Miami River at Nuta’s Boat Yard. 1884 NW North River Drive, Miami. This is now called Hurricane Cove Marina.

Things don’t go well. Avilla’s men have used an old shotgun that looks strikingly identical to the one Tubbs used to save himself in The Afternoon Plane, to booby trap the marina door.

Then we see the ambulance speeding to the hospital. This was filmed on Collins Avenue, northbound through the 5400 Block.

The interior of the ambulance was no doubt filmed at the studio.

Then we see Tubbs back at the boat ramp (Gerry Curtiss Park). Bobby  is watching as he gets a call from McIntyre.

McIntyre is driving. He is westbound on East Dania Beach Blvd. We see him pass by the AmeriFirst Bank at  SE 3rd Avenue. This is now a Chase branch.

Then we cut to the OCB (set) where Tubbs calls from the boat ramp.

Then we see Vicky discover the warrant. This was filmed in the Courvoisier Centre, Brickell Key.

Then we see Crockett arrive at the Curtis Park boat ramp.

Then we see McIntyre headed westbound on NE 96th Street passing the panning camera which is located at Club Drive, Miami Shores.

It cuts and all of a sudden they have jumped from Miami Shores all the way up to Dania Beach, Florida. There they are driving eastbound on East Dania Beach Blvd.

Then we cut to Vicky’s office on Brickell Key where she has been caught.

Then it cuts to Stan’s van. Parked at Greenwich Studios in the same spot we saw in Lend Me An Ear. A closer in shot but the exact same car parked behind it.

Then we cut to a marina. This was filmed in Dania Beach at 101 Dania Beach Road. We saw this location used in episode 22, Lombard.

They continue eastbound on E. Dania Beach Blvd. past Weiner’s Mobile Home park at 801 E Dania Beach Blvd.

Then it cuts (for commercials) and we have moved locations. Thanks to Harold Loeser who found this location and let me know, we now know that this was filmed southbound on Club Drive passing NE 98th Street in Miami Shores. This is a little more than 13 miles to the south of the previous cut. Thanks again Harold.

Then we see them eastbound on East Dania Beach Blvd. passing the Motel 6.

Bobby calls Crockett from outside the Whiskey Creek Cafe.

Crockett is at the Curtis Park boat ramp where he washes his back tires in the river.

Then we see Crockett eastbound on the Rickenbacker causeway.

Then we return to Avilla’s marina, The Dania Beach Marina.

Passing 250 East Dania Beach Blvd.

Back at Gerry Curtis Park.

As seen in Lombard:
