Glades: Crockett and Tubbs aren't much enjoying their watch over Joey Bramlette, a small-time dealer scheduled to testify against his supplier, Enrique Ruiz. He gets a disturbing letter in the mail brought in by Switek and Zito, and just after they take over the watch, Bramlette disappears without a trace. With the Ruiz case in the balance, Bramlette must be found and brought back within two days. Following a lead, Crockett and Tubbs descend into the only place where their witness would go--Okeechobee Springs, deep in the heart of the Everglades. Posing as tourists on a fishing trip, they meet up with a few rednecks who claim to know Joey, but Sonny and Rico quickly learn a few things about the Glades: There's no staying dry, there's no telling where the moss grows, and there's no finding anyone who won't point a gun at you! Very few people will talk to them, let alone believe their cover story, but eventually they're brought under guard to a cottage deep in the wetlands. There they find Bramlette with every other smuggler in town, and the people turn friendlier once Joey ID's them as cops. Ruiz's men kidnapped Joey's daughter Tammy, and the odds are she'll be killed whether he testifies or not. She's surrounded by about 20 Colombians, and there's only seven townsfolk willing to fight them, plus Sonny and Rico. Sonny flatly refuses, saying it's impossible, but Pops, one of Joey's gunners, knows that Ruiz has a drop going down on the other side of town, which will cut his forces in half.

 Sonny and Rico recon the Colombians's hiding place, while Clem, another gunner, fast-talks the time of the deal out of Ruiz's redneck cohorts. Needing a diversion, Rico plans to open fire on the drop. As darkness falls, final preparations are made, particularly which team gets Pops and his Gator-getter (That would be Sonny's team!). The shipment arrives at first light. One Colombian sees Clem moving in, and opens fire. Caught buy surprise, the thugs at both scenes are all but wiped out by the locals, except for Pops, whose gun keeps jamming. The last druggie standing at the drop makes a run for the house only to be tackled by Rico. One gang down, one to go. Sonny drops through the skylight, confronting the loose-lipped redneck holding Tammy at gunpoint. A moment's standoff and Sonny blasts him in the forehead, with no twitching to fire his gun. Sonny carries Tammy out to her parents, where the locals are tying up the survivors. The only Colombian on his feet come out on the porch aiming at Sonny, but Pops comes through and the Gator-getter blows him away. Back in Miami, Ruiz is painfully shocked to see Joey Bramlette strolling to the witness stand. Sonny and Rico relax for the first time all weekend.
