MIAMI VICE: MADE FOR EACH OTHER (TV)
Summary
One in this series of police dramas concerning Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs, undercover detectives for the Miami vice squad. In this episode, Detectives Zito and Switek employ two jive-talking informants to help them bust a corrupt discount supplier named Costalado. When their own cover accidentally gets blown, Zito and Switek recruit eccentric informants Noogie and Izzy to get close to Costalado in their places. Unfortunately, the pair grow quite fond of their new jobs -- and each other -- and decide to use the position they've earned with Costalado to their own advantage. Meanwhile, complications ensue when Zito's house burns down and he is forced to stay with Switek, whose new girlfriend -- and Zito's own ex-lover -- has just moved in. Commercials deleted.
