Tokyo Vice Recap: Get High, Steal Bikes, Do Crime
Jake gets another scoop about a whole new, complex underworld.
“You cannot steal their money and go set up shop somewhere else.” Claudine sees the outsize value of her labor in the current configuration, but she seized the opportunity a little too hard, and now she’s brazenly disrespecting Samantha, a straight-shooting Michael Mann–ian protagonist who doesn’t suffer fools. She’s offering him a chance to make the blistering force he showed at the end of the last episode an institutional weapon by giving him the resources to wipe out his enemies for good and wage a heavy peace for the city. On his night out with Tats (which includes, sorta accidentally but also on purpose, stealing a bike from an unwitting couple), Jake gets a clear picture of the rebellious spirit that propels these kids, and the economic and class realities that push them underground.
