"Stop it, you crazy bastard." "You're gonna turn me like you." "Give me the phone." "No, the other one." "The cool one." "It's really fat!" " What do you want, Gordo?" " Boss, do you have a minute?" "Tell me, quick." "I have what you wanted." "Take it home and drop it off tomorrow at 8: 00 A. M., you know where." "I have guests at home from the Lamaze cla" "Are you with me or not, asshole?" "Yes, boss." "I must confess, Monsieur Lopez," "I really don't know how it's possible to wire 500 million pounds to a British bank, or indeed, any European bank, without the Financial Action Task Force detecting you." "We have accounts that already cleared all those stupid little money laundering rules." "Don't worry." "Well, I know there are some other ways of doing it, but they're risky." "With me, you're dealing with an official British institution." "I'm zero risk." "Worth 1 5%." "Yes?" "The British guy says there are no risks with them." "Do you agree with giving the British Ministry of Defence 1 5%?" "Oh, come on..." "Let me talk to him." "Hello?" "Good evening, Mr. Stanner." "Good evening, Minister Segura." "I understand your point." "It is tougher every day." "We'll do it with you, but there is no way we could pay a 1 5% commission for the transaction." "It's not worth that much." "1 0%." "Agreed. 1 0%." "I appreciate your understanding." "Good evening, Mr. Stanner." "Good evening, Minister Segura." "But the operational costs are yours." "Here's the documentation which will define the operation, types of weapons, etc." "Uh, please wire your commission from your account in London to an account in Switzerland, details of which" "I will provide you later." "A done deal." "Excellent." "Now, I have a gift for you." "Pick one." "Or two." "Oh." "What a surprise." "Don't touch anything, idiot!" "Hello?" "What happened, Gordo?" "Where are you?" "Everybody is waiting for you." "Are they all there?" "Almost." "Hurry up." "Okay, I'm coming." "What a tummy I had!" "Did you see my parents?" "Yeah, I..." "Hang on a sec, lan." "Yes?" "What's up?" "The whole diaper gang is here, except for you guys." "We'll go as soon as Antonio gets here." "Sorry, I'm on a long distance call." "See you soon, okay?" "Bye." "Sorry." "Ian, where were we?" "Everything gets transferred to England." "That's it." "Do you want me to agree to not get a cut of that?" "To hell with the Aguados, then." "I'm going to be blunt, doctor." "I am not going to talk to you as the President of the party." "Take it as advice from a friend." "If you break up with the Aguados, not only you wouldn't be the governor of Tamaulipas, but you could also end up fucked." "Don't fuck with me, Lopez." "I have never received orders other than from the President... and, believe me, he will know about these threats." "He already knows, doctor." "Even the stupidest journalists in my town know that the Aguados are drug lords, for God's sake!" "I can't openly show myself as their friend, much less talk about them." "And, even though I opened the door to their crimes, I won't get anything?" "No way!" "But one thing is to tell the press about a mass and another thing is to officiate it, Dr. Parra!" "They are not happy with you." "I want 5% or I'm not in." "He got wise." "Look, doctor, I already told you." "Your cut is what you already received." "If you don't accept that now, we don't have anything else to talk about." "Doctor, we didn't hear your answer." "We'd like to have this clear." "I was Minister of the lnterior, as you are, when you were still playing with marbles... or maybe you already played with guns, I don't know." "This is not the way to do politics." "Now everything is drug money!" "Sure, one has to make dough, but with style, like in the old days." "Not being criminals, for heaven's sake!" "I'm glad you're here!" " Excuse me, Ana is starving." " Come in." " Hi, welcome!" " Thanks." " Hi." " Hi, how is it going?" "She's sleeping, fortunately." "Ana is starving." "Julie, you may use my bedroom so you can be more comfortable." "No, I'm fine here." "Thanks." "British women are that way." "They don't give a shit." "Hi." " Antonio!" "How are you?" " What's up, Pedro?" "How are you?" " Fine, thanks." " Hi, good evening." " Hi." " Hi." " How are you?" " Hello, little one." "Where's your husband?" "He had a last minute assignment from the party, as usual." "But he called, he's on his way." "Leave me alone!" "I let you get away with this just for my godmother, damn Gordo." "This bastard smells like shit." "Don't let him if you don't want to, but keep him here 'til I come get him in the morning." "Here you go." " What?" "Ay...!" " I'll give you triple for your trouble." "Here." " Take a shower." " Stop it!" "I'll come get you early tomorrow." "Just like that, they fall asleep." "Hey!" "The one you cried for is here!" "Oh, Gordo, it's about time!" "The lots are next to Santa Fe." "That is, the Beverly Hills of Chilangoland... and at 10% of what they're worth!" "If you don't buy, I really don't know what you're thinking." "Cheers!" "Cheers." "Cheers." "Why so cheap, huh?" "It was an area for communal farming, but they just regularized it." " Who?" "The party?" " Who else, dude?" "They're gonna sell like this." "Come on!" "Let's see them tomorrow, now is the time." "And... does it have to be cash?" "Yeah, but if you do it, I'll let you make payments." "Once the title deeds are drawn, any bank will lend you money to build, using the land as collateral." "Young men, their real value is ten times greater!" "It sounds good to me." "What time do we meet tomorrow to go look at them?" "How about 1 0:00?" "Deal." "Deal." "Deal." "Oh... imagine that!" "We'll have a house, not a shitty apartment!" "She's beautiful." "We did a good job." "Oh, you're so beautiful." "You're gorgeous, my Julie." "I love you." "I love you..." "Lend me some money, okay?" "My stomach is grumbling." "Don't go anywhere." "Consequently, I sent my resignation as the head of the Ministry of the Economy to the President today, a title that he entrusted to me with honor the day he became President of Mexico by the will of the people." "I thank you, my friends, for your work." "That is all I had to say to you." "Thank you." "Doctor, will you be a candidate for governor of Tamaulipas?" "Dr. Parra, why this unusual way to bring forward your nomination?" "Where are your party's leaders?" "Doctor, you promised me an interview." "Are you leaving?" "Let's do the interview, but in my car, on the way to my office." "Get up, crazy bastard!" "Get up!" "Get up now!" "Come over here." "Let's go, asshole." "I'll get it." "Here." "Yes... come here." "Do you have a hangover?" "No, not at all." "And you?" "Me?" "Why?" "I don't know." "Hi." "Hi." "Finally, tomorrow I'll fly to your country to buy that famous horse." "Oh, I forgot to ask my friend if you could stay at his home." "Only for a couple of days while I find a hotel." "I'll call him right now." "What?" "There are no hotels in Hertford?" "The travel agency says there aren't, and that there aren't any near the foal exhibit either." "But once I'm there I'll find one, right?" "Alfredo, I'd like you to give us legal advice in the purchase of a piece of land." " What are you doing now?" " Nothing." " Do you have time?" " Come with us to see them, please." "I'd like you to look at this guy's papers, make sure it's not a scam." "These assholes are late." "Who is this?" "Hello?" " Are you coming or not?" " Mario!" "That's me, but only my mother calls me Mario." "Call me Gordo, like everyone else." "Okay..." "Gordo." "Look, there's a bit of traffic, but we'll be there in about 1 5 minutes." "I'll be waiting." "Yeah." "Mr. Lopez, what do you think about the attack?" "Mr. Ramirez, how is Dr. Parra?" "Segura is there." "He is furious." "He passed away." "Where's Crazy Face?" "The doctor's bodyguards got him." "He is in a cell." "That fucking sucks!" "We couldn't do anything, sir." "Our best man failed us." "There were 30 journalists there." "What could we do?" "But..." "Ramirez, you know how to handle it." "I'll take care of it." "Don't worry." "This cowardly crime cannot remain unpunished." "Dr. Parra was going to be presented, with the support of every sector from our party, as a candidate for Governor of Tamaulipas." "This is an attack against Mexico, against our party, against democracy." "We demand justice." "We demand that the PGR investigates and punishes the perpetrators." "Thank you." "What do you think?" "Awesome, aren't they?" "This is the best place." "A 500 m lot for the price of 50." "So you are the first owner since they're no longer communal land?" "Why so cheap?" "Look, there are many big shots behind this." "They're not really mine, but my boss lets me sell them to whomever I want as a compensation for my services." "And what kind of things do you do for Lopez, Gordo?" "Hey!" "Lopez is bi, but I'm straight, dude." "Is what they say about him true?" "Everything's in order." "There's nothing illegal." "Obviously, the government did the regularization." "There's something fishy." "We don't know what's up with Gordo." "We don't know him well." "You don't have to know the person you buy a lot from, Julie." "It's a good business deal." "If you don't want it, I'll buy it." "How much do you want, Gordo?" "No more!" "Leave me alone!" "Stop, stop." "They told me you said that the party ordered you to kill Dr. Parra." "I did." "Where did you get that stupid idea from?" "Gordo told me." ""Gordo told me."" "There is no Gordo involved in this, do you understand?" "You acted on your own." "On your own." "On my own, sure." "Some journalists want to see you." "If a word about that damned Gordo comes out of your mouth, those assholes not only are going to humiliate you, they're also gonna tear your balls off." "No." "Why?" "Why?" "Why what?" "Why are they going to tear my balls off?" "I told the truth." "Nobody wants to know the truth!" "Did you hear me?" "No one!" "Yes!" "Yes." "Good evening." "The suspect's name is Francisco Patron." "He is 25 years old and he is from Toluca, Estado de México." "Some of you were eyewitnesses of the crime and Mr. Patron declared that he shot Dr. Parra." "Nevertheless, this office will continue investigating to see if there are any accomplices." "Excuse me, Deputy Attorney General, but I was there, in front of the doctor's car, and I saw clearly that the young man had a magazine with photos, not newspaper clippings." "They were original photos." "Obviously, somebody gave them to him." "Mr. Patron declared that he himself took those photos." "Bullshit." "The asshole gave them to me." "Gordo Corona, that asshole from the party, promised me ten grand." "Where is it?" "Don't fuck with me, assholes!" "Did you think you could put one over on me?" "Silence, please." "Mr. Patron has been examined by our doctors and they declared that, due to his impaired mental abilities, sometimes he says things that are absurd and constantly changes his version of the facts." "But who is Gordo Corona?" "Who's that asshole?" "Even if the accusations come from a mentally retarded person, you have to investigate." "We are investigating, lady." "Excuse me." "Why are you taking me?" "No!" "Please!" "What's happening?" "At least let me make a phone call!" "Please!" "My baby!" "Please!" "I beg you!" "Dr. Mateo Parra's assassin is Francisco Patron, a young man who is seriously mentally disturbed." "Nevertheless, the young man accused one "Gordo Corona "... !" "Antonio, come here!" "... of having offered him $1 0, 000 pesos for the crime." "What is it?" "As an exclusive for "El Informador," reliable sources stated that "Gordo Corona"" "could be engineer Mario Corona..." "No way!" "... who works for the official political party in travel arrangements..." " Fuck!" "That's really bad luck." " I told you." "For "El Informador," Angela..." "What's happening?" "Do you know him?" " Hello?" " Antonio?" "This is Mario." "Who?" " Gordo Corona." " Gordo?" "What they're saying is not true." "I had nothing to do with it." "You have to believe me." "I followed orders bringing the crazy guy, but Lopez never told me it was to kill someone... much less Dr. Parra." "They have Laura and my son." "They're looking for me everywhere." "They're gonna fuck me, Antonio." "You have to help me." "Wait a minute." "I hardly know you." "I just gave you a check to buy a lot from you and now they accuse you of murder and you want me to help you." "Are you nuts?" "You better not cash that check." "The deal is over." "Fuck your mother!" "He's a boy, right?" "Yes." "May I?" "You're heavy, little rascal!" "What's his name?" "Mario." "Like his dad." "Of course." "Would you like it if I was your dad?" "No, I couldn't be." "You'd be more handsome." "Where's your husband, Laura?" "It doesn't bother you if I call you Laura, does it?" "Do you know where he went for help?" "I don't know." "It is very important to me to know where he is and you can help me." "Think about it." "I have no idea." "I'll tell you something." "Mario--not your husband, this beautiful baby-- is the perfect size." "3 kilos of cocaine can fit in him." "Or 4, if his brain is taken out." "And you could be accused of drug trafficking and murder." "No!" "I beg you." "No, please." "He is a baby, please." "Not his life." "Boss!" "Relax, calm down." "Sit down, Gordo." "I'm scared, boss." "I don't know where my wife and son are." "They're fine." "Nothing's going to happen to them." "I promise." "Thank you, boss." "Regarding you, we have to play law a little." "Do you understand?" " No." " Get creative." "Tell them what they want to hear and everything will be fine." "But I don't know what they want to hear." " You have to confess, Gordo." " Everything?" "No, no." "But you have to tell them how you planned everything." "They're going to try you." "I'll get you out, no sweat." "Don't worry." "Go on, keep him." "No." "You better take him away." "He's a boy, just what you asked for." "He's beautiful." "Dr. Parra kicked you out of his political campaign and you lost a lot of business because of it." "True or not?" "Yes, it's true." "That's why you decided to waste him." "Yes or no, Gordo?" "Yes or no?" "Yes." "Yes, but I didn't" "Gordo, you're an idiot." "And then you got that asshole in Toluca." "Yes, yes." "Who are..." "Antonio Santos... and Pedro Alba?" "They're my friends." "Why did they give you these large sums of money?" "What dealings did you have with them?" "At the time of the crime you called them both on your cell phone." "What for?" "To pick up the checks." "What was the money for?" "For... some expenses." "You organized everything, asshole." "Why did they give money to you and not the other way around?" "The one who organized everything was Antonio Santos." "Hello?" "Darling, the judicial police went into the apartment." "What?" "Where are you?" "On the street." "What do I do?" "The judicial police went into my apartment." "Julie, don't tell them anything." "I'm in the corner." "They haven't seen me." "Take a taxi and go straight to the British Embassy." "Do you understand?" "Why?" "Why don't we talk to them and clear everything up?" "Because it's better to clear it up being protected." "Go to the embassy now!" "Let me talk to Antonio." "She wants to talk to you." "Please listen to us, honey." "Don't go near the apartment." "What am I going to tell them at the embassy?" "Julie, please." "Go to the embassy and wait for me there." "Why don't we tell them that we were buying some land from Gordo Corona?" "Julie, listen to me!" "I don't want you to talk to them." "You don't know what they're capable of doing to you." "Don't be paranoid." "They won't do anything to me." "Julie!" "Go to the embassy!" "Don't go near the police, God damn it!" "You have never talked to me that way." "What's happening?" "I'm going to go to my embassy and they'll make fun of me." "To the embassy." "What's up, Prieto?" "Excellent." "Excellent." "Lima 36 to Lima 5." "A 64 in public 42 to the British Embassy." "Send four 1 03 right away." "She's not answering." "Julie!" "Hi." "This is Julie's voice" "Shit." "It's the voice mail." "Drop me off at the airport and go see Lalo, my ex-partner." "Ask him to give you legal protection." "New suspects in the case of Dr. Mateo Parra." "The Attorney General's Office announced that they arrested Pedro Alba as an accomplice of Mario "Gordo" Corona, who was detained last night." "Another accomplice is at large." "The Attorney General's Office refused to reveal his identity, but reliable sources stated that the suspect's name is Antonio Santos." "No way!" "What do I do?" "Alfredo!" "Holy shit." "They're going to wipe their asses with the legal protection." "Fuck!" "What" "Go to England in my place." "No way." "What about Julie and Ana?" "I can't leave them!" "Come on!" "Julie is a foreigner, it's harder for them to do something to her." "Besides, nothing will happen to them at the Embassy." "Go." "I'll defend you here and they'll meet you there later." " I'll call her." " No." "Use mine." "Hi." "This is Julie's voice mail." "Leave me a nice message and I'll call you back." "Honey..." "Julie, I know that sometimes you don't understand how things work here." "I'm sorry." "Call me, please." "I need to talk to you urgently." "I love you." "Fuck!" "I can't go without my girls, Alfredo." "Don't be an ass, Antonio." "If you stay, they'll put you in jail or they'll kill you." "Obviously they're looking for scapegoats." "If you stay, you'd have to hide in a shitty little town and you won't do anything anyway!" "I know those motherfuckers." "They're judicial cops." "It's better if you leave in my place." "You have a call." " Julie?" " Antonio Santos?" " Yes?" " Corona sang." "You're not gonna get away just like that, asshole." "I'm hot on your heels." "Son of a bitch!" "Who was it?" "I don't know!" "Those motherfuckers, I think." "I don't know!" " Your passport." " Thanks." "Put on my jacket." "Wait." "My keys." "My keys!" "What the fuck?" "Julie, honey, are you at the embassy yet?" "Yes, Darling." "I am at the embassy." "You sound weird." "Are you okay?" "Yes..." "I'm fine." "Sorry I yelled at you earlier, but you don't know what those motherfuckers are capable of." "Where are you?" "With Alfredo." "He'll meet you soon at the embassy and he'll explain everything." "You and I will meet later on." "Give Ana a kiss for me." "I love you." "I love you, too." "Antonio?" "Hello?" "Hello!" "God damned cell phones." "Lima 36 to Lima 5." "A 63 at the airport." "Hurry." "Julie is at the embassy." "Please tell her that she and the baby can meet me there in a few days." "I didn't want to tell her on the phone, but I don't want them to think that I left without a good reason." "Call her from the air." "Don't worry." "Thank you, man." "Thank you." "Go, the airplane will leave without you." "Give me my cell phone." "And give me yours, too." "Passport." "Hey, wait a moment, please." "Mr. Escudo, your passport." "Are you all right?" "I'm afraid of flying." " Hello?" " Antonio Santos?" "Yes..." "Don't buy a ticket to go anywhere." "Why don't you give yourself up and make everything easier?" "You'll be better off if you do it." "Attention, please." "Passenger Santos, please come to the front cabin." "It's all right, sweetheart." "You've got to eat." "I know..." "Julie Mile de Santos." "She hasn't come here, sir." "This is very important, miss." "I need to talk to a supervisor, please." "Fill this out, give it to me, and the Consul will see you... on the fourth at 10:00 A. M." "We'll call you if there is any change." " In a week?" " Yes." "Good evening, Mrs. Mile." "Or, the British way, Mrs. Santos." "Which one do you prefer?" "You don't want to talk." "I can see that, besides pretty, you are intelligent." "That's why you're gonna help me." "Because you're not dumb, right?" "Right." "Are you okay?" "Did you eat?" "No, I am not okay." "I have been incarcerated illegally and I haven't eaten." "Nor has my baby." ""illegally" is an inaccurate word, Julie." "I can call you Julie, right?" "What do you want to eat?" "Anything." "No." "It can't be anything." "Let's see..." "Maybe some Japanese food." "They could bring you some sukiyaki, it's very good." "Not Japanese food." "Maybe something vegetarian for your diet, light, 1 00% natural." "Yes." "That would be good." "We are starting to understand each other, Blondie." "Can I call you Blondie?" "What kind of milk does she drink?" "Ana drinks mother's milk." "Then why hasn't she had it?" "Because I don't have any." "Don't suffer, Blondie." "Don't cry." "We're going to ask for some powdered milk for Anita, so she can get as pretty as her mother." "Why don't you let me go?" "I haven't done anything, nor has Antonio." "We just wanted to buy a lot from Gordo Corona." "No, you are misinformed, Blondie." "Gordo Corona and your husband planned Dr. Parra's murder." "That's not true." "Antonio is not a criminal." "This is illegal." "I have the right to call a law" "Don't get angry, you look prettier." "You've reached attorney Alfredo Escudo's cell phone" "Shit!" " Where's your husband?" " I don't know." "You don't know?" "I don't know, and if I did, I would never tell you." "Wanna try some good meat?" "Is that what you want?" "I won't give her back if you don't tell me where your fucking husband is." "I don't know!" "I don't know where he is!" "Give me my daughter back!" "Ana!" "No one by that name works here, sir." "I know that!" "No, no, miss." "I already told you." "My wife and daughter went there for protection!" "Why would Mrs. Mile need protection?" "Because the Mexican police could unjustifiably frame them for something." "Is she comes, I'm sure she'll contact you." "I'm sorry." "I can't do more." "Good afternoon." "Where are you, dude?" "I'm desperate, man!" "What's happening?" "Julie is not at the embassy!" "Send me an e-mail, please." "Not that one." "I want it in my office." "The answering machine too." "I want to find out the number so we can locate him." "Hi." "I'm going to be out of circulation for a few days." "If you want to leave a message, you know what to do." "Where are you, asshole?" " Antonio?" " Who is this?" " Hello?" " We're landing, sir." "Good morning." "I'm looking for lan Bower." "He lives here?" "Occasionally." "Who's looking?" "I've just come from Mexico to visit the Bowers." "You know what time they'll be back?" "Come on in." "I could do with some help here." "Sorry, Ma'am." "I'm not looking for work." "For God's sake, if you're going to stay," "The least you could do is help out a little." "Sure." "Sorry." "Please!" "I have to go to the bathroom!" "What's the matter, are you not hungry?" "What?" "Oh, yes." "Thank you." "I'd like to send an e-mail to Mexico." "Can I use your computer?" "Oh, I'm not allowed near the computers." "They're lan's." "You have to ask him-- when or if he arrives." "Hello." "I'm so sorry I'm late." "Sorry, Darling." "You must be Alfredo." "Ian Bower." "It's a pleasure." "Sit, sit." "Good." "I'm glad you started without me." "Tania, chili con carne for a Mexican." "It's fine." "Perhaps Alfredo would have liked something English." "Although our indigenous cuisine is not that brilliant." "Look, if you don't want to eat it, then don't, but I'm not going to make anything else, though." "That's not anything like Mexican food?" "It's tasty, really, but we don't eat anything like this in Mexico." "You could be a little bit more appreciative." "I don't know why I bother." "Darling, I like it." "I'm just making conversation with Alfredo." "And you've come for a horse?" "What do you do?" "Dressage or jumping, or..." "And what style?" "Cowboy or..." "Charro style." "It's Mexican." "Where did you learn your English?" "It's very good." "I mean, at least it's not American." "I studied in a British school in Mexico City." "Listen, I need to explain something to you both." "I wanted...to tell you that..." " It's a long story." " He wants to use your computer." "What for?" "I have to send an e-mail to Mexico." "Sure." "We'll have to use the one in my study." "That one's just for work." "Rabbit on the Moon." "Do you know it?" "Oh, yes." "Sure." "In fact, it's Julie's favorite painting." "Julie." "Just between us, Julie was my first real love." "And she's still my best friend." "But I can't even put up a picture of her because my wife can be very jealous." "So instead, I have Julie's favorite painting so I can think about her without my wife catching on." "Such is life." "All yours." "Hl, THEY HAVE julie AND YOUR DAUGHTER." "CALL 5966-6173 TO TURN YOURSELF in." "IF YOU DON'T, something BAD will HAPPEN TO THEM." "ALFREDO." "Fuck!" "What's happening?" "Is she OK?" "She has to eat." "Give her to me, please!" " She's super cold, you're mean." " Come on, she's fine." "What are you doing?" "What are you giving her?" "Hell!" "She smells like shit." "Change her." "No way!" "You change her." " You're crazy." " Then she'll stay like that." "She can't stay like that." "If you don't take good care of the baby, I'll arrest you for three days, assholes." "Understood?" "Yes, sir." "Yes, boss." "Open." "Blondie, if these inhuman people don't treat the baby well," "let me know and I'll punish them, okay?" "Corporal Garcia!" "Yes, sir." "Bring diapers and everything the baby needs." "And bring fresh clothes for the lady." "Yes, sir." "And when she needs to go to the bathroom, take her immediately!" "Yes, sir." " Clean up the floor." " Yes, sir." "The Minister of the Interior just got here, sir." "Have him come in." "It got out of your hands, Nicolás." "Who says?" "Things are straightening out." "Really?" "He doesn't see it that way." "Did you read Gitano's column?" "Yeah, but who cares about the opinion of the number one admirer of Lieutenant Commander Marcos?" "Your name is already fluttering in his damn computer and others will come." "It's better to get you out of the scene so you don't get hit." "No sweat." "The supposed witnesses have been suppressed and Crazy Face was actually crazy." "The case will be resolved when that idiot Corona gets sentenced." "He'll swear having followed orders from his friend" "What's the name of that asshole?" "Santos." "By the way, Ramírez says he's in England." "Very good." "That way you'll verify that the British police does its damn job and you send him to Mexico." "Your appointment will be announced in a few minutes." "Don't fuck with me." "Are you asking me to go to London as an ambassador?" "Would you prefer to go to North Korea?" " Stop that shit." " It's an order." "Just for awhile, while things calm down." "You shouldn't expose yourself here." "That way you take care of the business in England, verify that that idiot Santos falls soon... and we kill three birds with one stone." "Is he trustworthy?" "1 00%." "His name is Terry Mulligan." "They call him "Mad Dog."" "He speaks Spanish pretty well." "He'll be your guardian angel, don't worry." "Ex member of the SAS Squad." "Come on, Ramirez." "Why are you recommending a Rambo?" "You know I don't like them like that." "You asked for someone who speaks Spanish and who'd take care of you." "He's the only one there is." " Who do you want?" "Beckham?" " Go to hell." "I have news for you, Corona." "You'll join your wife and son." "But you have to sign this paper first." "Bureaucracy, you know." "Yes, yes, yes." "Here." "So, Alfredo, tell me:" "Mexico City." "Is it as dangerous as they say?" "Well, no more than any other big city." "Right." "And you're a close friend of Antonio's, right?" "Yes." "Obviously you must think very highly of him." "I mean, he must be a good man." "Julie's very careful about choosing her boyfriends." " Well, he's her husband now." " indeed." "She married him." "And what is it he does again?" "He's a graphic designer." " Right." "Interesting." " Well." "Hey." "You're gonna need this." "A map of the tube." "Underground." "You treat it like a Bible." "It's very easy to get lost." "It's not good, is it?" "No." "Unfortunately I have to use it for work sometimes." "Work." "What's your job?" "I work for the security of good ol' Blighty." " You all right?" " Yes." "I never imagined you were a policeman." "You don't look like one." "What do policemen look like?" "Dixon of Dock Green?" "What?" "I don't know what that is." "But in Mexico, the police, they stink." "Thanks for the map." "If you want to leave a message, you know what to do." "Hey asshole, what kind of an e-mail is that?" "Where are you?" "Who told you that?" "Where are Ana and Julie?" "You were going to defend me and now you ask me to turn myself in, you bastard." "It sucks to be so far away and not know anything." "Holy shit." "Hi." "This is Julie's voice mail." "Leave me a nice message and I'll call you back." "Julie, can you call me as soon as possible?" "I'm very worried about you and the company you seem to be keeping in Mexico." "Please call me just as soon as you get this." "Any time, day or night." "Bye-bye." "Fuck!" "Give it to me, baby." "It better be important, damn Prieto." "What do you want?" "You were dying to hold her, weren't you?" "Did you like the dress?" "Look at this!" "This is outrageous." "What is this?" "Corporal Garcia!" "Yes, sir." "72 hours under arrest." "After that, go to my office." " Aldape!" "Yes, sir." "The baby's things." "Yes, sir." "What's up?" "Nothing like Mommy's arms, right?" "It's been confirmed." "Your husband is in England, the bastard." "Did you know that?" "No, but if you know where he is, why don't you let me go?" "Give me a city, an address, and you can go play with your daughter all you want." " It could be many." " Tell me all of them." "It could be in the North." "London, Essex, and Hertford don't sound very North of England." "Why do you guys think that us dark-skinned folk are dumb?" "Help me." "Your country's police are going to look for him anyway." "Save James Bond a little work and give me the pleasure of letting you go." "See how easy it is?" " I came to get her." " Let me keep her a little bit." "mario "GORDO" CORONA dies OF A HEART ailment" "Yeah, right." ""They appoint a new ambassador... "" "Lopez..." "Lopez, you son of a bitch!" ""Antonio Santos main suspect."" "Fuck!" "Alfredo!" "No..." "No..." "Alfredo!" "Ian, first of all, forgive me." "I'm not Alfredo." "I'm Antonio Santos." "The husband of Julie." "I think the Mexican police have illegally kidnapped Julie and my daughter." "It says he ordered Dr. Perez's assassination..." "I know that." "What else?" "They arrested the three suspects, the actual killer, a guy named Corona and a third, Alba." "And according to this, the fugitive Antonio Santos is their boss." "There's nothing about Julie Miles." "Tania." "I didn't think you were here." " Have you seen Alfredo?" " No." " Where's your car?" " Stolen." "Somebody nicked it while I was teaching." " Have you called the police?" " Aren't you the police?" "Darling, please." "Did you call them or not?" "No." "I waited for you." "I work at Ml-5." "Call the police, please." " And Alfredo hasn't been back." " I don't know where he is." "Look, he's your guest." " Are you gonna have some dinner?" " Sorry, I haven't got time." "mario "GORDO" CORONA dies" "Tania, what have you done with my painting?" " I haven't done anything." " It isn't there." "Ask Alfredo." "I don't know anything." "Consul Hyde." "Good afternoon." "Good evening, Consul Hyde." "This is lan Bower, Ml-5 in London." "I am sorry to trouble you, but this is rather important." "We have information that a British subject, one Julie Miles-Santos, and her daughter Ana have disappeared or have been kidnapped in Mexico." "This isn't really the proper channel for this type of thing, Mr. Bower." "I know that, Mrs. Hyde, but we would prefer to keep the Mexican police out of this, at least for the moment." "Well, we don't usually keep an eye on the thousands of British subjects who visit Mexico, but you are now the third person who has inquired after Mrs. Miles in the past few days, which is odd." "The other two were quite convinced that she'd come to the embassy to look for help." " And did she?" " No." "Sorry to trouble you further, Mrs. Hyde, but do you have the names of the people who were asking about her?" "Just a moment." "Only one came to the embassy..." "and..." "Alfredo Escudo." " Thank you very much, Mrs. Hyde." " You're welcome." "Consul Hyde." "Good afternoon." "This is Deputy Attorney General Ramirez." "Deputy Attorney General, thank you for returning my call." "My pleasure." "What can I do for you?" "I am concerned about something." "The wife of someone you are looking for, one Antonio Santos, is a British citizen and she is missing." "Madame Consul, Antonio Santos ran away from the law." "Very likely, his wife is with him." "But I assure you that, as soon as we catch them we will let you know." " Thank you, sir." " My pleasure." "That's right." "Out of your price range, sonny." "Piss off." "Excellent place." "I congratulate you for the recommendation." "Give me back my fucking baby!" "Shut up or I'll beat you up, damn gringa!" "Rosie, there is a star in heaven that bears your name." "Thank you." "I need your PC to get to the content of the e-mail he got from Mexico." "Excuse me, Mr. Bower." "Tom Sexton." "What are you doing so far from your desk?" "Just a little look at the sharp end." "Scary." "What do you want, Tom?" "Red lnternational Notice of Mexican fugitive Antonio Santos." " What about it?" " You tell me." " What?" " What can you tell me about him?" "Nothing." "I don't want to be rude, Bower, but if someone from M l-5 was to get wind of what I'm about to tell you, you'd be in one deep pile of shit, sunshine." "The Mexican police have traced a call from you to a mobile phone in Mexico." "A phone registered to Antonio Santos, to be exact." "Well?" " It's a long story." " I'm all ears." "But please realize it's going to have to be good." "To get you out of trouble it's gonna have to win the fucking Booker prize for non-fiction." "Shut up, kid!" "Please do not get up." "It's nice to see you in person again, Mr. Lopez." "You hadn't come to London in over a year." "But now I will be here for awhile." "Of course, Ambassador." "Congratulations." "Thank you, thank you." "As I told you over the phone," "I want this transaction to be totally confidential." "More than usual." "There is a lot of insecurity in Mexico and the kidnapping of well-off people is common." "My name and my partner's should not appear anywhere." "Do not worry, Mr. Ambassador." "We know that discretion is important to you." "We'll do the transfers to the anonymous offshore accounts separately, as usual." "What I am concerned about is the transfer of 50,000,000 pounds sterling to Switzerland." "If you opened a new account, you should have asked us." "It would have been an honor for me to help you, Mr. Ambassador." " That account is not mine." " Oh, I understand." " Hello, Rosie." " Hi." "I've got to be quick." "I got a message from a friend at Scotland Yard." " Your wife's car was spotted today." " Where?" "In Mayfair, the embassy zone." "Listen, I've gotta go." "Next time, please stay a few weeks." "You'll be surprised how advanced our republic is." "Of course there are problems with..." "the poor." "But in other areas we're as developed as any European country." "Talking about being politically efficient," " I would like to ask you a favor." " Please." "What could be the reason for the MOD to have 50 million pounds in a Swiss bank account, only that's not from Britain." "I don't think that's something that's polite to ask about." "You misunderstand." "I don't care what you do with that money or where it comes from." "I just want to know if it will be possible to put more in that Swiss account." "Hmm." "I see." "From where?" "From an offshore account." "Oh." "Excuse me." "Yes, Ramirez?" "He thinks we should kill the British woman now." "Is this line secure?" "Sure, it's encrypted, even though you're in London." " He's crazy." " I think it would be stupid." "What news do you have about the British police?" "They're at his heels." "It's a matter of days." "Did he answer the e-mail you sent him?" "No." "I think we would internationalize the problem in a very stupid way if a British woman's dead body showed up somewhere." "So?" "We have to keep her alive for the time being." "I'll tell him myself, as soon as I can call him." "I'm busy right now." "But if he insists, don't do it until you talk to me, okay?" "I don't know who the fuck you are, but if something happens to my wife and daughter, you're dead!" "I know Lopez had Parra killed, asshole." "Antonio Santos." "You're not going to threaten me, fucker." "You better shoot yourself, because if we catch you it'll be worse." "Your damn wife and your kid are dead, asshole." "Oh, yeah?" "Bullshit!" ""We would internationalize the problem in a very stupid way" ""if a British woman's dead body showed up somewhere." "We have to keep her alive for the time being."" "I just heard it, so go fuck yourselves!" "He's not stupid." "He called me just to say "l know something."" "Something." "Very well, Ramirez." "We are going to do something about this." "Notify the British about the call." "Obviously, Santos knows about Lopez." "Should I notify him first?" "No, let me do it personally." "It is fascinating to see how politics are essentially the same everywhere." "Here, shit is done with gentlemen's rules." "Go to hell!" "Yes, Ramirez?" " Watch your back, Nicolás." " What?" "Antonio Santos called." "So?" "He's watching you." "He even knows what you shit." "Come on." "What did he say?" "He knows everything." "Don't speak to me with monosyllables, asshole." "Elaborate." "Didn't you say this line is secure?" "It is, but he must be watching you in a different way." "Watch out." "He might try to do something." "Is "Mad Dog" with you?" "Y es." "Good." "The boss insists on getting rid of Santos' wife to avoid future trouble." "No way." "Don't kill her until we have Santos." "And the baby?" "Should we look for a dad for her, too?" "Put her up somebody's butt." "Do whatever you want with that fucking kid, okay?" " Stop!" " Put it down!" " Who's asking?" " Bower." "M l-5." "Mulligan." "Diplomatic escort for the Mexican ambassador." "Let me loose!" "They're going to kill Julie." "Calm down." " Who is gonna kill Julie?" " The ambassador will." "As soon as they find out you people have arrested me." "If anything happens to her, I'll make sure you rot in a prison for the rest of your life, you prick!" "Ian, please, take me anywhere, but don't let them know you've arrested me." "That's the signal for them to kill Julie and my daughter." "Please believe me..." "You theiving bastard!" "This picture is mine!" "It's--it's mine!" "I'm the artist." "I painted it for Julie." "Tania." "I found your car." "It's fine." "Eat dinner without me." "I'm gonna be late." "Yeah." "Bye." "You have got under five minutes to convince me you're not a murderer." "I'm not a murderer, and if you really love my wife like you said you do," "Ian, please help her." "It may be too late." "Why were you following the ambassador?" "Because he ordered Corona to kill Parra and he killed Corona." "Lost forever, now he's ordered some other guy named Ramirez to kill Julie." "Why does Lopez want to kill Julie?" "No." "Don't you say anything, Bower." "What are you doing?" "You know this is illegal." "I should really report you." "I think this conversation is over, don't you?" "Ian!" "Ian!" "Yes, sir?" "You called me." "What's happening?" "The London police arrested Santos." "Really?" "Very good." "Should we proceed with the British woman?" "Yes, but please... be more careful." "I don't want them to find her." "Forgive me for not having come sooner, but I've been very busy." "I want you to know that this doesn't give me any pleasure." "On the contrary." "But what I can do is to see that you are comfortable and that our baby has everything she needs." " I want to see her." " You'll see her later." "First, you and I will talk in a civilized manner, like friends." "Cheers." "Slowly, slowly." "It's good, isn't it?" "I want to see her." "Corporal Garcia!" "The baby, please." "It's hot here." "That's fine, thanks." "Take her away." "She's been crying for days." "All babies cry." "But you think she cries more because" "Because you don't see her." "But all this can end." "It's up to you." "Julie... you are very brave." "Another woman would have fallen apart, but not you." "You are truly admirable." "Thank you." "I feel calm when you are here." "You are the only one who is kind." "To this mutual admiration." " They're going to kill her." " Your story's insane, Santos." "I mean, if it's true, why don't you bring charges against Lopez?" "I told you before." "Charging Lopez in Mexico is impossible." "It's useless." "Frankly, I'm bored of all this." "For now, you're under arrest for entering Britain under a false identity." "The authorities in your country want you, so you can look forward to an extradition trial." "Here's a list of lawyers." "Call one." "You also have a right to call your embassy." "Get him out." "You're crazy." "You're totally crazy." "I'm drunk." "Do you want more, or should we switch to tequila?" "What hands!" "My God, what great hands." "There is no back that doesn't miss me." " Really?" " Yes." "Show me." "Just a moment." "Allow me..." "I'm going to send my Guardian Angel to rest." " Wait" " What is that?" "That is mayonnaise." "I feel like a sandwich!" "We can bond with these." "You're perverted, Blondie." "That's what you are." "Slowly!" "Slowly..." "like this." "I'm at your feet." "Wait, Blondie!" "Wait" "What are you doing, idiot?" "All of my people are here." "If you call them, I'll kill you." "I know how to use it." "Asshole." "You'll pay for this." "Corporal!" "Did you hear that?" "No." "What?" "I better go check." "Don't cheat." "More." "More!" "That feels good." "That feels good!" "More..." "It feels so good..." " Yes!" "Yes!" " Damn her." "She's even a whore." " I call." " Call?" "Call on the phone." "Damn Ramirez." "He's fucking and here we are, like idiots." "We'll be late to deliver the baby." "Let them wait, rich assholes." "If they don't want her, we'll give her to my aunt." "She wants a kid real bad and she can't have one." "If you think he'll let you give her away for nothing, you're crazy." "He'd keep her himself, he can't have kids either." "Ramirez wants a boy." "Besides, I won't lose my cut for your damn aunt." " Want another beer?" " Cut." "But don't cheat, asshole." "Don't pretend you didn't." "Aldape..." "Garcia..." "To the British Embassy, please." "Good evening, Ma'am." "Good evening." "Quickly, please." " It's near Cuauhtémoc, isn't it?" " Yes." "Let's go." "Do you know how to get there?" "Because I don't." "I don't know the name of the streets, but I know how to get there." "Do you have a blanket?" "There is one back there." "Take it." "Garcia!" "Fuck!" "Where did that asshole go?" "God damn it!" "Don't just stand there!" "Get this shit off of me!" "Send someone to the British Embassy." "The key, idiot!" "Can I help you?" "Sir, I am British." "It is an emergency." "Open the door, please." "No, I can't do that." "Come back tomorrow at 8:30." "You don't understand." "Let me in, please!" "It's an emergency!" "Please!" "Don't worry, Ma'am." "If you want, I can take you somewhere else." "Come, you have to take your baby to a warmer place..." "I'll take you." "Maria..." "Sorry about the time, but I need your help." "I'm sorry, Julie, but we don't want problems with the police." " This is the last favor, I promise." " You can't ask me to do that." "I'll lose my job." "Listen to me." "They may be killing Julie at this very moment." "If you were in her place, I'd be begging her for help and she'd do it." "Please help me!" "Okay." "Who the hell is this?" "For being Mexican, you are pretty rude." "Who's this?" "I want to know who the hell has Julie." "What are you saying, idiot?" "Antonio Santos had you call, didn't he?" "Tell that asshole that I'm not going to fall that easily." "I am the Deputy Attorney General." "I'm Macedonio Ramirez." "I am the law, asshole." "That's what I wanted to know." "He's Macedonio Ramirez, Deputy Attorney General of the Mexican Federal Police." "Happy?" "Oh, leave me alone." "Thanks, my love." "Thank you." "Let me use your phone, please." "I don't have service." "I've been waiting for a line for 6 months." "But, if you want, I'll go and take them your message." "Really?" "Yes, Ma'am." "Really." "How can I help you, Godfather?" "I need a favor." "It's not our problem." "A British subject is kidnapped by the Mexican police and it's not our problem?" "Exactly what kind of officer are you?" "One that's a lot closer to the law than you are." " Hello." " Ian, it's Julie." "Julie!" "Where are you?" " Where's Antonio?" " He's under arrest." "Listen, lan." "You have to help him." "If they extradite him, they'll lock him up for life or maybe even kill him." "I can't do anything about that." "Antonio has to defend himself legally." "You had me so worried, Julie." "Just what kind of people are you hanging out with?" "What's that supposed to mean?" "Why did you fool me with this Alfredo man showing up?" "I didn't lie to you." "Alfredo was the only reason Antonio managed to escape and it's cost him his life." "I don't understand any of this." "Antonio's only crime was trying to buy land form that crook Corona, so don't question my friends and don't you dare judge my husband." "I'm sorry, Julie." "I did what I could." "Antonio is facing an extradition process." "I'm just glad you're okay." "Do you know what?" "I'm far from okay." "My daughter is ill and my husband is in prison and you don't have the remotest idea of what I've just been through." "Shit." "Ian, for some time now Nicolas Lopez has been under investigation" " in the U. K. for money laundering." " What?" "Why didn't you tell me this before?" "Whether Santos is guilty or not is irrelevant to me right now." "In truth he's probably just small fry anyway." "Lopez was a much bigger fish." "The reason I didn't tell you before was because I thought you'd lied to me." "I found this in your bin bags." "It's clear now you never read it." "Yes, yes, of course, sir." "So long, sir." "If you fail, you better stay in England." "He's inside." "I'm going to phrase this in another way, Mr. Stanner." "Under which law did your department and the MOD sell fictitious weapons to the late Mr. Lopez, and worst of all, allow you to earn a commission?" "There was nothing fictitious about the sales, sir." "The operation was real." "The weapons were just never delivered because of Mr. Lopez's death." "How do you justify the fact that the MOD sold weapons to foreign individuals, not governments, because this operation was done directly with Lopez and not with the Mexican government." "I do not know, sir." "I'm afraid you'll have to ask the MOD, sir." "You're the one in charge at the MOD." "You should ask somebody else, sir." "Do you mean we should ask the Minister of Defense, Mr. Stanner?" "There are a lot of people working at the MOD, sir." "Now tell me, we did the MOD have a bank account off the record in Switzerland?" "Again, you'll have to ask somebody else, sir." "I think we need to get to the bottom of this with the MOD." "Our intelligence implies that this bank account was being used to bribe Middle Eastern politicians." "If the Swiss account contained, as we now believe, only money coming from illegal operations, such as the one with the Mexicans, then we're talking about a catalogue of serious crimes, including money laundering ordered by our very own MOD." "At the time of his death, Nicolas Lopez had approximately 600 million pounds in various British and Swiss banks." "We have evidence that this money came from different illegal activities, and that Lopez used his power to incriminate Antonio Santos." "Lopez took full advantage of his government positions in Mexico." "He was, at different times, Secretary of State, Governor," "President of his party, and twice, an ambassador." "Then he became a lynch pin in the so-called central cartel, which operates in several countries, including Britain." "Good morning, Secretary Segura, and thank you for inviting me to your office." "Good morning, it's a pleasure to see you." "I wanted to inform you personally that the ex-Deputy Attorney General, Macedonio Ramirez, has been arrested, along with his accomplices." "I am glad to hear it." "It gives me peace." "I also wanted to inform you that I tried to get the Attorney General's office to dismiss the charges against Antonio Santos, but it was impossible." "He will be tried." "The British government will send him back shortly." "We hope he will have a fair trial, Mr. Secretary." "He will." "He will." "Per the President's instructions," "I give you my word that he will have a fair trial under the law." "Wait!" "Gentlemen, I think it's all right if a husband says goodbye to his wife." "You understand that I have to stay, don't you?" "Of course, of course." "It's the best thing for you and Ana, my love." "What's going to happen?" "Even though everything was fabricated, they won't recognize it." "Most likely they'll give me a sentence of 1 to 7 years." "Lalo says he can fight for a lighter sentence." "Seven years is a long time." "I think about it and I doubt it, Antonio." "I should go with you and take Ana so she can be near her Dad." "No." "What for, Julie?" "It doesn't make sense." "You can't do anything there and you could visit me only on Sundays, you'd be alone." "I don't want you to ever set foot on a Mexican jail." "Much less Ana." "I will come get you as soon as I get out." "Subtitled by JR Media Services, lnc." "Burbank, CA"
