What an amazing episode this is with superb cast, probably the most famous guests starring in a 'Miami Vice' are in this episode, even though we saw already Ed O'Neill in second episode and Bruce Willis in seventh, in episode 'Give a Little, Take a Little' there are two very famous actors performing, an already famous at that time Burt Young (most memorable for playing Paulie in 'Rocky' saga) who is playing Lupo Ramirez, a big fish pimp that isn't very unfamiliar with murdering of his "working girls" also, and Michael Madsen starring as Sally Alvarado, a mean "gun for hire".

Crockett and Tubbs are cruising around town and visiting their old friend "Noogie" that gives them a tip of drug smuggling operation going on in a warehouse, while Gine and Trudy work on case against Ramirez. What appears to be a double case episode with two cases that have nothing in common turns out to be something else...

10/10
