The episode starts with a recap of recent events.

Then we see Michael, Sam, and Jesse in Michael’s loft. Filmed on set inside the Coconut Grove Convention Center Studio.

We see them arrive at lunch to put their plan into action. This was filmed in the Village of Merrick Park. They pull up on Salzedo Street and enter Crave. Salzedo Street is a rare, erroneously named street in South Florida. Famous for great roads and logical naming(numbering) this is a rare exception as it runs north south and streets should be east-west. It should be an Avenue or Terrace. Crave is located at 4250 Salzedo Street, Suite 1425, Coral Gables.

While there, Fiona calls from Michael’s loft. Filmed on set.

Act 1 opens with Michael and Sam having returned to Michael’s to see what the CIA is up to with fiona. This was filmed on studio set.

   Then we see Fiona meet Angela, the CIA asset. This appears to have been filmed at the Village of Merrick Park as the teaser was. I will have to go there to confirm this 100%.

Then we see Fiona driving down a residential street. This was filmed in Pinecrest, Fl. They are driving westbound on SW 91st Street past 5800 SW 91st Street where Michael and the CIA clowns are parked in a van.

The interior of the van could have been filmed almost anywhere but it was likely filmed at the studio.

Then we see Fiona arrive at her “friends” house. This was filmed on location at 9601 East Suburban Drive/ SW 60th Ct., Pinecrest.

As Fi arrives, we see both the real brick entrance gate and the fake gate structure that Michael later crashes through.

Then we see Sam and Jesse on tour. Thanks to miamijimf at miamiviceonline.com for letting me know that karendipitee at the USA network’s Burn Notice forum had found this location. This was filmed at the Hollywood Florida, Fire Rescue Training Facility. Located at 3400 North 56th Avenue, Hollywood, Fl. The former garbage dump.

Then we cut to Michael in the van outside 5800 SW 91st Street.

Then we go inside 9601 East Suburban Dr. where it’s action time.

While in the office, Vincent is seen approaching the office door catching Fi still inside, a moment later Fi and Angela escape the office unseen to have Vincent come around the corner and approach where we already saw him moments earlier.

Then we return to the Village of Merrick for a little shopping and CIA contact.

Then we go to the Pryon Group . The exterior establishing shot of the building is an unknown location, perhaps stock footage.

Then somehow, sticking a belt in the tailpipe made the engine overheat causing them to stop and check it out. Not enough is seen to locate where this was filmed.

Then we jump all the way up to 8291 Biscayne Blvd. to Biscayne Tire and Auto for the filming of the service station scene.

Then it cuts and we are back at 9601 W 60th Ct/ East Suburban Dr. where Fiona removes the package from Michael.

Then we see Michael and the CIA clowns go to work. This was filmed at the intersection of SW 58th Avenue and SW 91st Street in Pinecrest.

Michael goes to work down in the man-hole. Which has every indication of being filmed on studio set.

Then we go back to Pryon. Filmed on location at the Hollywood Fire Rescue Training Facility. 3400 N 56th Avenue.

Then we return to Vincent’s, 6901 SW 60th Ct., Pinecrest.

Angela turns out to be a scammer. Fiona calls Michael in the van. Filming location of the van’s interior is unknown.

We see Michael rushing to help. Location unknown.

He uses the van to blow up the fake gate at 9601 SW 60th Ct.

Then Michael finds his way back to SW 58th Ave. and SW 91st Street.

Then we return to Vincent’s, filmed on location at 9601 SW 60th Ct.

Then we see the CIA clowns meeting with Michael and Fiona. Fiona’s car is parked on the west side of SW 58th Avenue just north of SW 91st Street.

They take off headed down a street. Filming location unknown.

This leads us to Michael’s loft. Filmed on studio set.

This leads us to a restaurant meeting where the episode ends. Filming location unknown.

Then Xander walks out of the building. This was filmed on location at the Hollywood Fire Rescue Training Facility. The front door of the main building at 3400 N. 56th Ave., Hollywood, Fl.

Next we go inside the Pryon offices. This was filmed inside the Hollywood Fire Rescue Training Facility. The fire tower building seen out the window gives this location away.
