This episode contains the following tropes:

* AnyoneCanDie: Armstrong kills Lieutenant Rodriguez, who makes a HeroicSacrifice to save Crockett's life.
* BigFun: Linus is a heavy set drug dealer who enjoys the finer things in life. He's also treated as a minor annoyance rather than a serious threat. Sadly, it doesn't save him from being killed by Armstrong.
* DivorceIsTemporary: Crockett and his wife Caroline Crockett attempt to give their marriage another guy. Their separation is made permanent when she and her son barely survive a hitman's attack.
* TheHeavy: The threat of Calderone's hitman upends Crockett's life.
* NoKillLikeOverkill: The entire Metro-Dade police force unloads into Armstrong after his attempt on Crockett's life.
* ProfessionalKiller: Armstrong is an assassin that has eight targets to kill for Calderone.
* SeriesFauxnale: Part 1 of 2 meant to wrap up the series if it was about to be cancelled. It actually ended up saving it.
* TheSnitch: Linus Oliver agrees to help Crockett and Tubbs identify Mendez, a man working for Calderone.
* SuicideByCop: Armstrong refuses to surrender even though he's surrounded by a dozen police officers wielding guns and goes down fighting.
* TakingTheBullet: Rodriguez takes a bullet for Crockett.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Switek and Zito appear as comic relief cops significantly less competent than our heroes.
* WhamEpisode: Rodriguez dies. Calderone returns. Crockett's marriage finally ends.
