A drug dealer tosses a large amount of cash over a bridge onto a speed boat before going to a house boat where his wife is suspended. No sooner does he do so than he ends up being caught up in an explosion and both are killed. This is observed by Crockett and Tubbs who had the drug dealer under surveillance. Analysis afterward reveals that this is one of several such murders that have probably been carried out by someone in the DEA.
Deciding to make a target for law enforcement, they set Crockett and Tubbs up with fake identities and a million dollars in cash. They would then act as smugglers to go down to Columbia and make a drug deal with Trudy posing as Tubbs' wife. This would hopefully draw out the murderer. Befriending a drug smuggler named Jimmy Cole (Glenn Frey), they take his plane down and proceed to get involved in numerous complications even before getting targeted by the Extortionist.
