Miami Ink

The artists of Miami Ink learn that with success come problems. Ami buys his dream car, while Darren risks his life and his career by drinking to excess.

Darren tattoos Frank, who wants to commemorate an uncle who pushed him to be the man he is today - but who recently committed suicide. Garver helps Cindy to remind herself to love and respect her body after years of battling an eating disorder.

Tensions flare when Ami skips town just as one of the worst hurricanes of the season is about to hit - leaving Nu?ez in charge of the shop. Darren tries to convince his wife Carolina to leave her comfortable Connecticut home.

This program brings together a brotherhood of tattoo artists.

Kat Von D is back, surprising the guys by dropping in from LA. Ami tries to get past the memory of a near death motorcycle accident. He's got to decide if it's worth risking his life and his livelihood to ride again.

Ami threatens Yoji with an ultimatum- if he doesn't improve his drawing Yoji is going to have to quit his apprenticeship.

Ami's in Hawaii, so Nunez is left in charge of Miami Ink, and Kat comes in to help out. Nunez replicates an Alphonse Mucha print for Marci, who is celebrating victory over breast cancer. Nunez also tattoos the famous bike builder, Billy Lane.

Miami Ink is very busy. Garver designs a guardian angel for Paul to keep him grounded. Ami continues his Hindu-inspired work on Mike, who's down from New York. Another Mike gets a tattoo from Ami to remind him of the time he spent in Hawaii as a child.

Now that she's eighteen, Nunez can give Vanessa a tattoo of her obsession. Darren gives his father his first tattoo, and Nunez helps Danyel keep her mother's memory alive.

Ami helps Amber Dawn remember her beloved grandfather with a rosary tattoo, and Darren gives rocker Adam something that reminds him that he only lives once.

Ami and Chris take a spiritual and professional journey to the Hawaii and meet a master of traditional Polynesian tattooing, Keone Nunes.
