Stanley, hold this. Listen, I've just got one more thing.
I'll be right back. Come on!
Odette, hi. Hi.
I need a favor. Only one?
Can you get these groceries together and drop them by my apartment?
I'm supposed to cook dinner tonight. You know, a hot date.
And I'm already starting the day off a half hour late.
Sure. Great.
Here's some money, and key.
And I left something special for you in the hallway closet.
That is not necessary. Never argue with a cop.
I'll see you. Bye.
Guy ever worn a bug before?
Don't worry about it.
Guy's under contract.
He's looking at a dime and a half if he messes up.
What kind of a jerky deal did you get us into?
We just want to know how sweet the stuff is.
Hey, man, we got to take certain precautions...
when you're dealing with professionals.
Manny, what are you doing?
When did they shine the light in Steve McQueen's face?
Do you remember that part in the movie? Why did I rent the cassette tape?
Everything's cool, Seņor Crown. Just bring the sample.
I think you guys are gonna close down...
every Coke distributor south of Atlanta.
This is guaranteed, man. This hasn't been stepped on, man.
100% pure. Sure is hot in here.
We're on.
What's with this guy?
You said nobody ever used this place. What's going on?
Listen, we'll talk about money at another time. Come on.
Let's go, Manny! Come on!
Freeze! Miami Vice! Don't move!
Put your hands on your head!
Irv, what'd you get us into? I want to see our attorneys.
Shut up.
Hey, my end's done. Not until the trial, pal.
Would not miss it for the world.
Miami Vice cracks down on illegal soft drinks.
What? Look, it was a bum tip. I just found out.
Artificial sweetener, Jack.
These guys don't run drugs, they run supermarkets.
And they're just about to get into the diet soda business.
Who the hell would rip off a trainload of artificial sweetener?
Said his name was Crown, but his sidekick called him Izzy.
Get them out of here. Tubbs! You taste like a doughnut.
Now we got to find Izzy.
My lunch.
I told you to leave me alone.
I've missed you, baby.
Oh, please.
Oh, please, leave me alone. Please.
Oh, please.
It's actually better if you're a little late because what I'm cooking...
takes a while.
A rain check?
No, it sounds great.
Sure.
Bye.
Conehead.
What a perfect day.
First we lose the bug van, then the C.I. and....
Shh.
Wait a minute, now. All is not lost.
That was the other guy.
Hey, Sonny? Yeah.
How would you like some dinner?
Sure.
Better than nothing.
It's me.
She's been raped.
Out! Get out!
Keep your hands where I can see them, pal.
Easy, man. Easy. Get on that car.
Get on there!
This is $100,000 worth of machine.
Don't scratch it.
What's the charge?
Pick one, buddy. Resisting arrest, reckless driving...
Or rape. Rape?
That's right, pal. Rape.
Look at me, amigo. I'm rich. I'm beautiful.
The finest seņoritas in Miami beg me for it.
Why would I rape? I'm not your shrink.
I just heard. Odette.
Let's go over it again. I need more detail on this guy.
I can't think of anything else.
Hello? Just a moment.
Detective? There's a call for you.
Trudy, see what you can do.
Calabrese. Gina.
Sonny? How's the girl?
Terrified. How do you think? That answers my next question.
Yeah, well, I'm not exactly in a great mood.
Where the hell did you go?
I saw a slick leaving your building when we came in...
chased him half way across the causeway...
before I could catch him to have a little chat with him.
He's being booked right now. What does he look like?
Latin. 25, gold-plated.
Name's Nico Arroyo. Wrong guy, Sonny.
Odette said the rapist was a gringo, blond hair.
Sonny?
Yeah, I'm here.
No, I don't want to go. No!
Gotta go, Sonny. Thanks for trying. I don't need to go anywhere.
Please! Please, stop.
Gina, can't I just go home?
You need this exam for your health and welfare.
And we need it for evidence. But--
Now don't be scared. I'll be with you.
Bond's posted. Come on, let's go.
Hey, you owe me an apology.
I don't owe you spit.
I'll give you a tip. Lose the cologne.
You smell like a cheap pimp.
Hey, what do you know? This stuff costs $100 an ounce.
Beat it, before I book you for air pollution.
Take it easy, Gina. You just take the girl home.
Well, the great white hunter returns. You've heard.
I thought only good news traveled fast.
This Nico Arroyo, he look like money?
All the way. Right down to his Lamborghini.
That sounds right.
That would make his father General Octavio Arroyo.
Gee, and I thought I knew everybody on the Joint Chiefs.
In Bolivia, this dude was the Joint Chiefs.
Until he got caught on the short end of a coup.
He got away with his gold-braided threads...
and a little change from the Bolivian treasury.
About enough to buy a mansion in Key Biscayne...
and three or four banks in Miami.
Guy really made himself at home here.
Left behind a ton of trace evidence...
and some really good palm prints.
Get this down to the lab as fast as you can. This one's special.
What's this Arroyo kid like?
If being a punk was a felony, I could put him away for life.
Smell this.
Reeks, huh? She must bathe in cologne.
It's a men's cologne. Really?
Yeah, it's called Golden Warrior, man.
Hey, I'll buy you some for your birthday.
On your salary, Switek?
We're talking about $70 an ounce, buddy.
More like $100.
Huh?
Put her to bed, Annie. We'll come back later.
Sonny?
This is Annie, Odette's roommate. Hello.
They find anything yet?
Come here.
She's lying. Lying? Where do you get that?
The kid I kicked loose digs this expensive cologne.
It was all over the dress you gave Odette.
I've known her for months, Sonny. She doesn't lie.
This Arroyo, who is he?
Some rich punk.
Son of some defrocked Bolivian general.
Odette used to work for a Bolivian. A general.
Does Arroyo live in Key Biscayne?
He would never leave me alone, always touching me...
saying dirty things, trying to make love to me.
And when Mrs. Sanchez, the full-time servant...
told me about the other girl, I quit. What other girl?
She worked in the house before me.
Mrs. Sanchez said he raped her.
Gina.
I tried, he had a knife.
What could I do? I know.
You couldn't do anything.
But you can now. File a charge. Oh, no!
He said if I told anyone, he'd have me sent back to Haiti.
He can't do that. You're a legal alien.
He's the son of a general, a rich, powerful man. I'm a nobody.
In Haiti, a man like General Arroyo can do anything.
This is not Haiti. And you are not a nobody.
That's what that pig wants you to believe.
Odette, I'm your friend and I'd never do anything to hurt you.
You know that, don't you?
Yes. Then trust me.
No matter what Arroyo says, no one will deport you.
What he did to you was a crime, and we have to make him pay.
Do you understand?
Yes.
Hold it!
Hold it right there. Police officers. Get away from me!
Go ahead. Give me an excuse.
Easy, lady, no problem.
There's a problem, all right.
The little girl? You raped her in my apartment.
Gina, I got him.
Gina.
Morning.
Good morning.
You see Odette this morning?
She went back to work. Well, she's tougher than she looks.
You get any sleep? Not as much as Arroyo.
You know his lawyer, the great Guy Slocum?
Got him sprung before my head hit the pillow.
Lab report. Prints, hair samples, blood types, all Arroyo.
Made my day.
Only thing Arroyo didn't leave was a forwarding address.
Creep figured he had nothing to worry about.
Gina, Trudy, in my office.
The D.A. thinks the evidence is irrelevant.
I agree. Well, I don't.
The girl worked in the Arroyo household...
knew Arroyo for over six months.
He didn't leave a mark on her. At least none you can see.
That's the only kind that count. You should know that by now.
Arroyo's attorney does.
He'll make a point that Odette invited his client over to your place.
He's right, Gina. It's his word against hers.
The D.A. wants corroboration, I'll get it.
Mrs. Sanchez, the full-time maid, told Odette...
that Arroyo raped another maid that worked in that house.
I'll find her.
It's a long shot, Gina.
Arroyo raped this girl in my apartment and we all know it.
I'm entitled to a long shot.
J I'll talk to the D.A. get him to file.
Come up with something.
Okay.
Seņor Arroyo.
The General wishes to see you in his study.
Imbecile.
You have never been anything but trouble to me.
I have given you everything.
Still you want what you can't have, right?
Guess who I learned it from?
No, there's a difference.
In Bolivia, I started with nothing.
And you.
With the daughters of the finest families available to you...
what do you do?
What do you do?
Nothing.
You rape a servant girl.
You sicken me.
It's a minor matter. It's amusing at best.
Oh.
You find this amusing, hmm?
Would 20 years in an American prison amuse you?
Listen.
I am a respectable banker in this city.
And I don't want in the newspapers...
my depraved first born...
that is on trial for rape.
Got that?
I'll take care of it. No, you won't.
You will do nothing.
You won't talk to that girl, and you won't see her again.
Okay? Okay.
I'll take care of it, my son.
Don't worry.
Now go.
How far did you guys get last night? A name. Nellie Guererro.
Get an address? Come on. It's illegal in a haystack.
Illegal in a haystack. That's cute.
Yeah, what's the cross street?
What do you think?
No, thanks. I'd probably only wear it once and then leave it in the closet.
It's for Odette. Sort of a replacement for the one I gave her.
Well, who knows. Maybe this Guererro girl will show up.
I haven't given up yet.
Morning, partner. Morning.
I just got a call from the owner of Club Fatale about your bug van.
Says it's parked in front of his place.
Maybe we can kill two birds with one Izzy.
Your partner looks kind of intense today.
Yeah, I haven't seen him act like that since '83...
when he chased a guy who swiped a hubcap from the bug van.
Have we already had the scene where I ask, "What's this all about"...
and you say, "Shut up, we ask the questions"?
I don't know. Did we, Lar?
Guererro.
Oh, yeah. Guererro.
Guererro?
There's this little girl, Nellie Guererro.
She's about 19, Salvadoran.
She used to work for this family, Arroyo.
Find her.
Sure, Nellie Arroyo? Used to work for the Guererros.
Yeah, I used to, you know, date her cousin.
Yeah, I used to hang out with all the Arroyos.
You know, Mrs. Arroyo, Mr. Louie, Loupie....
Why don't you finish loading?
Finish loading! Finish loading, yes, of course.
All right, let's go!
Come on, Manny. Come on.
Hello! Come on, let's go. Get the bug, let's go.
Hola.
I was just driving by, I thought I'd say hello to the charming police lady.
Saw your car. Que pasa?
Get out of here.
Now! Easy, easy.
I just need a few words with the Seņorita.
A conversation about the truth.
The truth is, you raped her.
The truth is, the little tramp begged me for it.
Get out of my sight.
I love anger in a woman. It's very sexy.
# On the streets #
# And everywhere #
# You're turning heads #
You know, this is not such a bad place.
And maybe she's really having fun. Yes, she's a real sport.
# And walk on through #
Tubbs looks funny when he dances.
Come on, come on, let's dance.
No, I got a trick knee. Come on.
I got a trick knee. Every time somebody asks me to dance...
it goes out on me. What's with you?
# Anything you wear #
Relax, enjoy the music.
# especially #
# Nothing I could tell you #
# You haven't known #
# and you've heard half a million times but still I'd like to say #
# You wear it well #
_ # You wear it well you wear it well #
What are you doing? You're supposed to be looking for Nellie Guererro...
not greasing up some singles joint.
Amigos.
What looks like a room full of yuppies...
trying to find their hormonal readjustment...
is, in actuality, the control center for my hand-picked operatives...
who have blanketed the city in search of this....
What was her name?
Look, if you think we're kidding about finding this girl...
you're gonna have a long time to wonder why you were wrong.
I'll check my sources. Unfortunately, they're all here with dates, but....
# Anything you wear looks good on you #
# especially #
# Nothing I could tell you #
# You haven't known #
# And you've heard half a million times but still I'd like to say #
# You wear it well #
Cinderella tonight. All alone with Prince Charming.
Thanks, Sonny. This is just what she needed.
# You wear it well #
_ # You wear it well you wear it well #
# Oh, yeah #
# You wear it well #
# You wear it well you wear it well #_
Oh, you look beautiful.
It's the dress. Gina, how could I ever thank you.
I wish my sisters could see me tonight. You've got sisters?
Are they all as pretty as you?
I have pictures.
This is Sara and this is the youngest, Juanita.
Only 12, but she already looks like a movie star.
Gorgeous!
That must be Mom, huh?
Hmm.
She's wonderful. But she's had a hard, poor life in Haiti.
I send her $50 every week.
But she's never been happy about my being here.
She's afraid something bad will happen to me.
Odette?
Odette, they're playing our song. Let's dance.
I'm gonna nail Arroyo.
# When it feels like the world is on your shoulders #
# And all of the madness has got you going crazy #
# it's time to get out, step out into the streets #
# Where all of the action is right there at your feet #
# I know a place where we can dance all night away #
# Underneath the electric stars #
# Just come with me and we can shake the blues right away #
# You'll be feeling fine once the music starts #
# Oh! #
# forget about the worries on your mind #
# You can leave 'em all behind #
# Oh, rhythm of the night #
# Oh, yeah #
# Look out on the street now #
# The party's just beginning, the music's playing #
# A celebration's starting #
# Under the street lights the scene is being set #
# A night for romance, a night you won't forget #
# Tonight is gonna be a night like you've never known #
# You can leave them all behind #
# To the beat of the rhythm of the night #
# Oh, the rhythm of the night ##
Do you want to work it with me?
Great.
All right. Gina, I've been trying to reach you. Hold on.
Lieutenant just talked to the D.A. a few minutes ago.
Odette dropped the charges.
What?
She said it was a misunderstanding.
Said she invited Arroyo over to your place.
Her mother was with her when she made the statement.
Her mother lives in Haiti.
There are direct flights every day from Haiti to Miami.
Gina.
Yeah, I'm back.
Odette.
Maybe she's gone to work.
It doesn't make sense.
I wonder what the price of silence is in Haiti?
Hold him.
Odette!
Who's your employer? None of your business.
Wrong answer.
You can't run away from this.
Gina!
You can't run away from this.
Gina, the limo belongs to Arroyo's lawyer.
They just put her mother on a plane to Haiti. First class, window seat.
I didn't take a penny for myself. But your mother did.
My mother loves me.
You want to know? It was $1 O, OOO.
Cheap.
How can you understand?
Look at you, you have everything.
You live like a rich girl with your nice home...
your fine friends and a closet full of beautiful clothes.
$10,000 may not be much to you...
but to my mother and sister, it's an entire life.
Food on the table every day, and a decent place to live.
And what about Arroyo? What he did to you...
what he did to that other girl.... Doesn't that matter?
I had no choice.
There's got to be something we can do.
We've got a bribe here.
Gina, what are you trying to prove? I'm trying to do my job.
Your job ended when the girl dropped the charge.
So Arroyo just walks?
I've tried.
Gina. Sonny, lay off.
Lighten up.
What's going on with you?
You're a cop, not this girl's conscience.
She made her decision. She made the wrong decision.
Not your problem.
I trusted her. You've got that backwards, I think.
She trusted you, and you did everything you could do.
After all, she was the one that was raped.
You've got a hell of a short memory, Sonny.
Annie?
Hello, my pet.
No.
No?
$10,000 I just paid for you.
I own you.
Every lovely inch.
She wouldn't have returned the dress if she wasn't really hurting.
She's allowed.
She's been through hell.
Which my leaning on her didn't make it any easier.
You know what?
We've all been leaning on each other pretty hard.
From day one...
I promised her I'd never hurt her...
and that's exactly what I did.
Hey.
You only did what you thought was right.
That's just the problem.
I pushed her to do what I wanted to do.
Maybe if I was a terrified 18-year-old with no money...
I'd have done the same thing as Odette.
Maybe she'd like to hear that.
Yeah.
Annie, what happened?
Arroyo came again.
He said he owned her.
Now God owns her.
No.
Police lady, to what do I owe this rare pleasure?
I wanted to see how you chill out after a rape.
I figured maybe a steam bath.
But I guess a celebration is more your style, huh?
You've been talking to that little tramp again?
No.
She left me a note before she slit her wrists last night.
You know...
I think she truly convinced herself that I was in love with her.
And when I told her the truth...
she went crazy.
She was a frightened little girl.
Angry little pussycat, huh?
You and Odette were friends? Yes.
It's true then. I'm sorry. I do not like to hear of anyone dying.
You give new meaning to the term snake, you know that?
I am a man, guapa. Perhaps more man than you are accustomed to.
I doubt it. You like your women helpless.
You have to hide behind a knife and a rich father.
I don't have to do anything.
There are just a few things that I want, and whatever I want, I get.
I think that I may want you.
You couldn't handle it.
Okay, bye.
Trudy, we're going for Chinese, you want to go with us?
Sure.
Gina? She's not here.
She left. She looked down.
Let's go. Hold on.
Hi.
Listen, the gang's going for Chinese. You interested in a free meal?
No thanks, Sonny. Not tonight.
Tell her I promise I won't throw any shrimp at her.
Switey promises he won't throw any shrimp at you.
Yeah, sure.
She ain't going for it. Let's go!
You okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
I'd just like to indulge in some sedation and get some sleep.
All right, turn yourself in. In the morning I'll buy you breakfast.
Now, that's a deal. All right, bye-bye.
She's okay. She's fine.
All right, guapa?
There. Don't move.
I've come to give you what you want.
