"[Knocks]" "[Chuckles] Avery-san, have some more sushi." "Oh." "Have some more." "Have some more." "[Chuckles]" "I trust you like our sushi." "It's excellent." "Marvelous." "Glad you like it." "Oh, no." "No." "No." "L— I believe I've had enough for one night." "[Chuckles] As you wish." "Then you will permit me to make a toast to our bold new venture." "To our new partner, Averytek." "Banzai." "[Man] Banzai." "We're grateful for your capital, but, uh, I'm sure you can understand the demand of my board to maintain the controlling interest." "Of course." "Of course." "And in recognition of our relationship, my corporation would like to bestow a gift... onto the chief executive of Averytek." "Really, Tanaka." "That's—That's not necessary." "No." "Please." "In our country, such gift is referred as junkatsuyu," ""the oil that lubricates society." [Chuckles]" "[Avery] Oh." "Yes." "Of course." "I understand." "Well." "Please follow me, Mr. Avery." "It's um— It's really getting quite late." "Avery-san, go enjoy yourself." "It will be a night to remember." "I assure you." " Follow Agawa." " Come, follow me." "Uh, why not?" "[Pop] [Man Singing]" "[Continues]" "[Continues]" "[Ends]" "Hello there." "[Giggles]" "That's great." "So good." "You're so good." "Oh!" "Oh!" "That's great." "Oh, marvelous." "Oh!" "[Chuckles]" "Right there." "If you like this house enough to buy it, whose name will be on the title?" "Crockett or Burnett?" "Well, if it happens in this town and it's public, it'll have to be Burnett." "Sorry, sweetheart, but that's the way it is." "No problem, Mr. Sensitive." "I just wanted to know what initials to put on the towels." "4550." "I think this is it." "How much?" "Well, it's listed at 1.2 million, but it belongs to a Colombian gentleman with legal problems." "The broker says we could get it for 875, which I think would be a steal." "[Chuckles] Oh, absolute larceny." "Well, I'm good for every bit of 450 a month towards a mortgage." "That ought to buy me a good chunk of the garage, huh?" "[Chuckles]" "Hello." "Hi." "Mr. And Mrs. Burnett." "Rita Van Weens." "You don't know how nice it is in these postcrash times to meet a couple that won't need a mortgage." "I simply love all-cash deals." "Wait till you see the foyer." "Travertine marble." "This is a 250-a-square-foot construction." "How do you want to decorate it?" "Minimalist?" "Sante Fe?" "I don't care, just so long as it isn'tJapanese." "[Phone Rings] [Crockett] Burnett." "[Tubbs] It's Rico." "Castillo wants us at the old marina." "Theyjustjerked a floater out of the bay." "Give me 10 minutes." "[Tubbs] Since when did we start handling floaters?" "[Crockett] I don't know." "Maybe Homicide got tired of the Biscayne backstroke." "[Tubbs] Has he been I.D. 'd?" "W. Colton Avery." "The Ivy Leaguer who was gonna build that high-tech plant up in Lauderdale?" "It was supposed to be a Japanese co-venture." "So, another Yalie flunks the pool party." "Why isn't Homicide handling this one?" "Because it's not about Avery." "It's about the people he was doing business with." "His business associates may be tied in with the yakuza." "I don't want 'em in Miami." "[Police Radio, Indistinct]" "[All] Commissioner Vasquez!" "Please." "Give us some room." "Give us some room." "We're definitely gonna need a statement about this— You still calling the drowning accidental?" "Uh, at this point there is no evidence of foul play." "Foul play?" "Excuse us." "Then what's a Homicide cop doing here?" "Uh— [Chuckles] Sergeant Haskell's on this case... to make sure that there are no questions left unasked or unanswered about Mr. Avery's death." "Uh, now look." "Uh, as soon as we have an official cause of death you will be informed." "[Chattering] Now, look." "Give us a break." "Give us a break." "We've got no more comments." "I got your call, Castillo." "Think you've got an angle on this one, let me have it now." "I'm not certain about anything." "I have to talk to the medical examiner." "I'm just afraid of what you're causing outside." "Listen." "Vasquez works for the mayor." "You work for him." "And whether you realize it or not, right now the mayor has got his stones in a vise." "You do understand, don't you?" "Look, the primary's in two weeks." "He's trying to embarrass me." "So if you think you've got something on this, I need the fix now." "Spill it." "Excuse me." "Mm-hmm." "[Woman] Can you tell us anything, sir?" "[Chattering]" "Can you believe the loyalty around here?" "I'll fix this." "[All] Commissioner Vasquez!" "Uh, please excuse us." "Back off." "They fished this guy out of the bay this morning, Doc." "He drowned." "Uh-huh." "The bay's saltwater." "This guy's full of freshwater." "Okay." "So he falls off a boat in the Miami River." "Tide goes out, and he ends up in Biscayne." "Nice, clean alcohol-related slip and fall." "No more, no less." "That doesn't wash." " Why not?" " Tell him." "Because when he was found, this is all he was wearin'." "So what?" "His wife reports that he was wearing an Ebel watch worth $15,000." "It was an anniversary present, and he never took it off." "Somebody took it off for him." "When the divers fished him out, it was already gone." "See the tan line?" "So, fell off when he went over." "The man had a blood-alco level of— What was it, Doc?" "[Doctor] .25." "You know, Haskell, for a Homicide dick, you're awfully anxious to sweep this under the rug on an act of God." "Why don't you go on back to hassling' hookers and leave homicide to the pros?" "That's— That's enough." "Lieutenant Castillo thinks he may have an angle on this one, Haskell." "Why don't you step out for a while." "Latin machismo." "[Chattering]" "Hi." "One, he did not fall out of a boat." "Two, I'd say that judging by the bloating of the skin, he drowned in water at a relatively high temperature." "Now, I'm not talkin'90-degree Miami River water here." "This is purified chlorinated water." "Heated pool?" "Jacuzzi?" "Which means what?" "Means he was murdered." "And I need 48 hours before you call Haskell back in." "[Tubbs] So why get involved in a homicide investigation?" ""Riochi Tanaka." "Colonel." "Imperial Army ofJapan." ""Indicted November, 1945 as a war criminal... by order of Supreme Commander, Allied Powers, Douglas MacArthur."" "Tanaka's the head of the 14th-largest corporation in Japan." "Avery's new partner." "[Castillo] Avery had his last meal at a Japanese restaurant." "He drowned in a Japanese hot tub." "And Interpol connects Tanaka with the yakuza." "So he's really connected to the mob, huh?" "[Sighs] Check Avery's office." "Who we supposed to be looking for?" "Anything that connects Avery to Tanaka, or the yakuza." "[ManSinging]" "[Continues]" "Hello." "Miami Vice." "We're here to see Mr. Avery's office." "Hello." "We got something hinky happening in the garage." "[Continues]" "Tubbs, you notice these guys don't driveJapanese?" "Must be the drop in the dollar." "Hang on." "[Tires Squealing]" "Freeze!" "[Gunshot]" "[Groans]" "[Groans]" " [Shouts] - [Tubbs] Who in the hell is that guy?" "[Ends]" "Keep an eye on 'em, Tubbs." "I don't believe it." "Not a scratch." "I'll call Homicide." "Hold on." ""Kenji Fujitsu." "Private investigation."" "Address says Tokyo." "Must have been the other blaster in the black Firebird." "What's a Japanese P.I. Doin'in Miami?" "I don't know, but I'll lay you 10,000 yen at 4-to-1 odds he ain't doin' divorce work." "[Castillo] Yakuza." "The tattoos?" "The more tattoos, the higher the rank." "This man's moving up very quickly." "They started showing up in Hawaii about three years ago." "Right around the time thatJustice went after the mob." "Was there a connection?" "The RICO lawsuits." "That began to break up the crime families." "So these guys were movin' in to fill the void." "Just who are these guys, Lieutenant?" "Scum." "Thugs." "A loose confederation of gangs." "They're starting to get stronger though." "They live in the shadows." "Guns." "Prostitution." "Drugs." "Anything to turn a profit, including extortion and murder." "One of the worst gangs... is Sumiroshi-gumi." "That's their symbol." "Agawa, Fujitsu made fools of your men." "You must allow them to save face." "You have disgraced clan." "No choice." "[Speaking Japanese]" "[Japanese]" "[Line Rings]" "[Caitlin] Crock— Uh, Sonny Burnett's line." "[Chuckles] Uh, yeah." "Darlin'." "I'm just callin' to, uh, tell ya it looks like it's gonna be another late night." "Uh, listen, darling." "You know, that is the cover phone." "You ought to at least make an effort to get the name straight." "[Caitlin] Crockett, Burnett." "I'm married to two different men." "Sometimes I feel like an adulteress." "Well, I tell you what." "Wait up for me, and we'll cheat on your husband." "Oh, sounds wonderfully schizy." "[Crockett Chuckles]" "I love you." "Yeah, well, we both love you too." "Bye-bye." "[Castillo] Interpol shot, Fujitsu." "Most decorated cop in the history of the National Police Agency." "National Police Agency?" "Blue Knights— ofJapan." "Five years ago, he was suspended... for attacking this man without provocation." "[Crockett] What's his claim to fame?" "Chain ofjapanese steakhouses." "No criminal record." "His name's Agawa." "No one's seen nor heard Fujitsu since the attack." "[Tubbs] Until last night." "That's right." "[Gina] I don't understand." "I mean, what's his angle?" "The yakuza or the Avery death?" "[Crockett] Could be both." "Why don't we track him down and find out?" "Fujitsu has his own agenda." "We don't know what it is." "We don't have the time." "Right now forget about him." "Concentrate on the yakuza." "[Trudy] And how we supposed to chase them down?" "[Switek] Look in the yellow pages under "Full-Body Tattoos."" "How come he's missing a finger?" "The yakuza, when they fail their bosses— their oyabun— give a piece of themselves, or else they face disgrace." "Here's the tattoos that we're talkin' about." "[Switek] I'm glad I don't work for him." "[Trudy] If you did, you'd never finger-paint again." "The yakuza handle all the brothels in Japan." "They call 'em dating clubs." "They recruit their women through sex tabloids... and show business trade papers." "Trudy and Gina, I want you guys to pick up all the tabloids in South Florida, see if you can find a club that needs some help." "[Rings]" "Castillo." "Your 48 hours are up, Castillo." "I'm giving it to Homicide." "Haskell will be needing your notes." "I need two more days." "If I'm right, it could mean, uh, national news." "Maybe international." "It's that big, huh?" "Think you can get me on Ted Koppel?" "He's playin' you like a tenor sax, Commissioner." "Okay." "Forty-eight hours, or your whole unit'll be checking out men's rooms in South Beach." "You sold the farm, didn't you?" "[Chuckles]" "You think I'll look good on TV?" "Huh?" "I expect." "All right, ladies." "What can I do for you?" "We came here to answer your ad." "You might as well know right now... that we don't do any rough or kinky stuff, and we wear our own costumes." "[Trudy] Right." "And look." "We got our own line on all major credit cards, but we'd be very happy to share any kind of percentage through yours." "And nobody— and if I may repeat myself— but nobody comes near us without using any condoms." "You tell 'em." "And, uh, we don't do any employees either, if you know what I mean." " Right." " Check 'em." "Knives, guns, badges." "[Zipper Unzips, Objects Clatter]" "Hey." "Nothing." "Give 'em a number." "Put 'em to work." "[ManSinging]" "[Continues]" "Take it and go." "[Speaking Japanese]" "Kitchen is closed." "What?" "Kitchen is closed." "I wasn't talking about food." "[Continues]" "I'd say you gals have gotten yourself into a pretty tight situation." "Are you relaxed?" "You pig." "[Chuckles]" "You were told never to come here." "Look, tomodachi." "You were late with your payment." "Besides, if I didn't come, you'd have had a couple of Vice cops turning' tricks for ya." "I ought to get a bonus for this." "Maybe a half hour alone with 'em?" "What do you say?" "[Japanese] [Haskell] Hey." "What do you think you're doin'?" "[Sighs]" "Nothing's moved for the last half hour." "Has she activated the beeper?" "No, no." "I got zero brain activity on the monitor." "[Crockett] Now watch this dog and pony show." "Wait a minute." "Do you believe this?" "What are you doing, Yoshio?" "Not my gun." "[Man] How many people have— [Vasquez] Uh, please." "Just stay back." "You'll have pictures of everything as soon as we have everything under control." "[Woman] Commissioner." "Commissioner, please." "What's the meaning of this?" "You have a hostage situation." "I thought I should be on the scene." "[Castillo] Activate the beeper." "You sure you wanna risk it?" "Do it." "There's no other way." "Put it on the speaker." "The commissioner will want to hear this." "[Haskell] You cannot do business in Miami without me." "[Agawa] You're right, Haskell." "We have one more little job for you to do." "Haskell." "What's he doing in there?" "Workin' on the U.S." "Japanese trade deficit." "Your buddy Haskell's the bagman for the yakuza." "You gonna let us handle this?" "Or do you want that transmission sent over the loudspeaker?" "Some film at 11:00 that would make, huh?" "[Haskell] Listen." "A lot of people saw me come up the stairs." "[Agawa] They won't remember when they find you... face down in the bay, like they found Avery." "No." "Do your job." "Go to work." "Haskell's history." "The beeper." "On the floor." "It's a transmitter." "Everything you say is being recorded." "We should hit 'em now." "No." "Not with guns at their heads." "Crockett, you and Tubbs take them." "They're somewheres upstairs in the back." "[Dance]" "[WomanSinging]" "Hi there." "Two for dinner." "Sushi bar's fine." " Membership card, gentlemen." " Never leave home without it." "[Continues]" "[Gunshot]" "[Continues]" "[Trudy] Agawa escaped." "[Groans] Sonny, look who we got here." "[Ends] Oh." "Fancy seeing' you here." "You know, Rico, this guy Fujitsu has gotten my attention." "I'm gonna make it my business to run him down, even if it's just to have a chat with him." "You sure it's worth it?" "I'll find out." "Good morning." "Good morning." "Morning." "A report on the Tanaka-Avery merger." "What's it say?" "TheJapanese are using, uh, secret fronts... to buy up large blocks of Avery stock." "So it wasn't going to be a friendly merger." "It was gonna be a hostile takeover." "Avery got wind of it." "He blocked the move." "Which means Tanaka had every motive for killin' him." "So let's go pinch Tanaka." "What's it got to do with Fujitsu?" "I called the N.P.A." "I just finished." "Fujitsu's been working for Tanaka's corporation since day one." "I don't understand." "If Fujitsu works for Tanaka," "Tanaka controls the yaks, then why would Fujitsu want to slice 'em into sashimi?" "Exactly." "Why?" "[Castillo] I know you're there." "Come into the light." "The logic escapes me." "You say Tanaka had Avery killed." "You work for Tanaka's company." "Why do you want Tanaka?" "Tanaka is a nationalist." "Ultraright." "Once the youngest warlord in the Imperial Army." "Your people tossed him in the can after the war." "Then all of a sudden, everybody started seeing Red." "It was Communist this, Communist that." "So the O.S.S. Sprung him from prison." "They wanted him to bust the Communists and the labor movement." "For that, he used the yakuza." "And a war criminal becomes one of the richest men in the world." "What's your interest?" "For 40 postwar years..." "Tanaka's style was the way that we did things in Japan." "Now the moderates in his corporation believe he's unsound." "I was hired to stop him." "So his own board wants his head." "Why approach me?" "'Cause of him." "[Castillo] Haskell." "[Fujitsu] He was O.S.S." "Tanaka's control officer." "You would never have solved Avery's death with him on the inside." "And cracking Avery's death is what I need... to take Tanaka down." "The evidence against Tanaka is circumstantial." "[Japanese]" "That's why I need your help." "[Japanese]" "Do it." "How did you know?" "It was the way you went after Agawa." "It was beyond simple police work." "He was once my brother." "I was starving after the war." "He took me in." "In those days," "Sumiroshi-gumi was a noble clan." "Then Tanaka twisted Agawa for his own postwar ends." "He bought their souls and turned them into thugs," "Agawa into a gangster." "Now I ask you again." "Will you help me?" "Konnichiwa, Lieutenant." "Konnichiwa." "Please, be seated." "In your telephone call... you mentioned that you could begin where Haskell finished." "Is that correct, Lieutenant?" "Yes." "But Haskell was a Western buffoon." "Are you also a buffoon, Lieutenant?" "I can give you something that Haskell couldn't." "I can give you Fujitsu." "I trust you enjoy our rare green tea." "Thank you." "When the lieutenant brings Fujitsu to me, you will kill him." "You will place Avery's watch on the body." "That way it will appear... that Fujitsu has killed and robbed for profit." "Perhaps there is another way." "He was trusted once." "[Japanese]" "There is no other way!" "If this scandal continues to unravel, it will mean a complete loss of face for the clan." "And then... you know what I am committed to do." "[Thunder Rumbling]" "Kenji." "I prayed you wouldn't come." "You expect I would send somebody else?" "I saved you from the streets." "Now I am to save the honor of our clan." "Sumiroshi-gumi has no honor." "You talk of honor." "When you joined the police, you disgraced our clan." "You know the penalty is death." "You were the master... and I the student you taught too well." "[Thunderclap]" "You once told me... that those who stray from the path of righteousness... must be destroyed." "I have no choice." "[Thunderclap]" "[Both Shouting]" "[Groans]" "[Both Grunting]" "[Groans]" "[Grunts]" "[Shouts]" "[Shouts]" "[Grunts]" "[Castillo] No!" "[Japanese]" "[Castillo] No." "[Japanese] Kill me." "[Japanese] [Japanese]" "I must—" "I must—" "[Japanese] You kill him, he dies in honor." "Kill me, Kenji." "Let him live in the agony of his own disgrace." "[Thunder Rumbles]" "[Flesh Tearing]" "[Gurgles, Sighs]" "[Footsteps Approaching]" "In America you have arrest and trial." "The yakuza have their own justice."
