Plot:Tommy Lowe's body has finally been identified as Cassidy Davies (Julianne Hough) is beginning her latest tour. She flies out to Los Angeles for a photoshoot and brings Crockett (Josh Holloway) along with her. After they arrive, Cassidy gives some interviews at a pres conference. After ward she sees the heads of the record label Wiggins (Paul Blackthorne) and Freeman (David Ramsey). They tell her they are pleased with the new album. Crockett is overwhelmed by the crowds, but finally finds a few minutes alone with Cassidy before they head off to a record label party. At the party, Cassidy is busy catching up with old industry friends. Crockett drinks at the bar by himself. Wiggins and Freeman are talking to Jonah Lee (Michael Weston), the founder of the celebrity gossip website CHQ. Lee is hitting them up for information on Cassidy's new mystery man. That night, Crockett tells Cassidy that he has to go back to Miami for work in the morning. She tells him she understands, but should be back in Miami soon to kick off the tour.

Back at OCB, Tubbs (Taye Diggs) and shows Crockett that he and Cassidy made the home page of CHQ. Lt. Castillo (Andy Garcia) asks Crockett if he heard anything about Tommy Lowe from Cassidy, as the D.A. has informed him that Lowe was going to roll over on the heads of the label Wiggins and Freemont before he was murdered. Castillo suggests that Crockett work the case undercover since he is well-positioned to do so already. Crockett tells Tubbs that he is concerned that Cassidy will be angry that he is getting involved in her business. Tubbs asks why he didn't decline the case, but Crockett says that he feels he has the inside track on the case and also has a duty to protect Cassidy. Lee starts to dig up dirt on "Sonny Burnett" and arrives in Miami.

Crockett flies back to Los Angeles and heads to Cassidy's hotel room where she shows him a new CHQ article talking about Sonny Burnett's reputation around Miami as a drug trafficker. She tells him that the label is worried that it could affect sales for the new album. She tells him that the label wants him far away from the tour. Crockett tells her that Fremont and Wiggins are under investigation for the murder of Tommy Lowe, and Cassidy can't believe it, saying Lowe owed money to several drug dealers in Florida. Crockett says he's leading the investigation, and Cassidy is even more surprised and tells him she refuses to get involved in his work. She doesn't want to hear anything about Freemont and Wiggins unless Crockett has real concrete evidence.

Fremont and Wiggins are meeting with the label's accountants who tell them that the company only has enough cash in the reserves to stay in business for 60 days. Freemont and Wiggins contact Sonny Burnett to ask for his help in moving 100 keys of drugs from Nassau to Miami on short notice. Crockett agrees to the deal, believing he can catch them in the bust and put them behind bars. When Crockett leaves the meeting, Freemont and Wiggins discuss their real plan: for the deal to go bad with Burnett and Cassidy caught in the crossfire. The label would then get back the money they've set aside from Cassidy's tour so they can stay afloat longer.

Crockett sees Cassidy's assistant Angela (Jessica De Gouw), who tells him that Cassidy is having a hard time with Crockett not around and thinks the two need to spend more time together before the tour starts. Crockett spends time with Cassidy at the hotel pool where he expresses his concern about Fremont and Wiggins, telling her that they want Burnett to bring in drugs for them to move. Cassidy is upset that he's getting involved in her career, but agrees to come to Miami with him when he goes back for the deal so that they can spend some time together.

Wiggins sets up the meet at a pier that night. Crockett tags along with Cassidy for a photoshoot. While Crockett waits outside, he sees Fremont and Wiggins drive by. He rushes inside the studio where the photographer is about to kill Cassidy. He shoots them and then gets into his Ferrari to chase after Freemont and Wiggins. In the chase, their car flips and catches fire. Crockett manages to pull Wiggins out of the car before it explodes, killing Freemont.
