Ep 402 - Amen.Send Money
As Miami Vice enters its fourth season, its creators continue to up the quality and the stakes. The fourth season finds the series at the height of its powers, with new episodes that are even more thrilling, exciting, and surprising than ever before. Episode 402 - Amen.Send Money, is one of the best of the series.
The episode opens with a bang as Crockett (Don Johnson) and Tubbs (Philip Michael Thomas) are introduced to a televangelist who leads a mega-church in the city. The televangelist and his associates are in the midst of planning a fundraising event for their latest project—a massive new church. Crockett and Tubbs are tasked with keeping watch on their activities and reporting any suspicious behavior.
As they begin their investigation, Crockett and Tubbs quickly realize that the televangelist and his associates are less interested in building a new church than they are in siphoning funds from the current church. The televangelist and his cohorts are using the church as a front to launder drug money, and they have no qualms about exploiting the vulnerable and the desperate to line their pockets.
To make matters worse, the televangelist and his associates have hired a hitman to take out anyone who gets too close to the truth. As Crockett and Tubbs dig deeper, they find themselves targeted by the hitman and his crew, and they must fight to stay alive while also stopping the church from being used as a front for drugs.
The tension and stakes rise as Crockett and Tubbs race to uncover the truth and bring the criminals to justice. Along the way, they encounter a slew of interesting characters, including a former prostitute who was saved by the televangelist and is now a devout member of the church, and a local drug lord who is using the church to launder his dirty money.
As with all Miami Vice episodes, the style and music are an integral part of the show's success. Episode 402 - Amen.Send Money is no exception, with a soundtrack that perfectly captures the mood and tone of the series.
