After a botched sting operation where Gina and Trudy have to be rescued from a heroin den, Crockett and Tubbs stumble on a wealthy young man named Mark Jorgenson, Junior. He almost cracks under pressure from Crockett but is rescued by his family's attorney. Believing he could be a link to high-level dealers, Crockett and Tubbs proceed to follow him back to his polo club. There they meet Mark Senior and his partner, Mary [=McDermont=].
Investigating Mark Senior, they discover he's guilty of numerous financial crimes and may actually be supplementing his businesses with drug dealing. Wire-tapping him, they follow a coded conversation to finding a massive stash of cocaine in a warehouse they proceed to put under surveillance. Arresting Mary when she comes with some buyers, she is promptly killed and Crockett uses it to convince Junior to wear a wire on his own father.
