"That party we just threw, there were over a thousand people there, bro." "No way." "Oh my God, I can't wait to get up there!" "You know I'm hookin' you up too." "You just help me move a little bit of candy, I'll put some serious paper in your pocket, man." "Oh, speaking of, I need a solid." "Um, I'll bring in about two boats to begin the holiday break." "Two boats man?" "That's like two thousand pills." "OK, another 7 Gs is what it is." "Alright." "And some of that could be yours." "Nah, I'm good man." "Look man. you don't got to do anything." "I just gotta ship the box to your house OK?" "I can't, I can't fly with this stuff." " I don't know, bro." " Come on, it's for like a day until I get there." "And you can even have some." "And you said that Amanda are dying to roll" " I'll talk to you about it later about it, alright?" " I'll text you the traffic..." "No, no." "Don't." " Hey, why don't you answer the phone?" " I was skyping with Craig." "Hello?" "Hey, Maggy." "No, no." "Nick said the layoffs wouldn't happen in our division." "Mike I understand, but the bottom line is I need to buy all four rigs." "Anything less than that, there's no point." "I might as well just keep leasing." "Well that's what they do, those haulers, they get together once a year... then they raise the rates before the gas prices." "They do, because they know they can get away with it." "See the contract?" "Yeah, its real, I just don't know when it's gonna start." "How much money am I gonna have to borrow?" "Alright, let's move some equity around." "I've been rolling the dice my whole life, might as well do it again." "I gotta go." "Solid week boys, thank you." "I figure Analisa would have you putting up ribbons and ballons." "I'm still out getting Izzy's cake." " Good luck with that." " I need it." " Have a good weekend, Wayne." " See you." "You know there's no OT, unless it's authorized." "I aint lookin' for OT, sir." "I just got a broken pallet." "I get my bags out of the weather." "It's gonna rain tonight." "Good heads up." "Whoa, whoa sir, I got this." "Seriously, I don't want you get dirty." "It's alright." "Let's do it together." " I'm John Matthews." " Daniel James." "Good to meet you, Daniel." "Don't worry about it." "How long have you been working here?" "Don't you mean work for you?" "About three weeks now." "What, you thinkin' bout givin' me that raise already?" "Fat chance, buddy." " You gotta try, right?" " You gotta give it a whirl." " Package for Jason Collins?" " Ah Yeah, that's me." "Alright, sign right there." "Alright, thanks." " Have a good one." " Thanks man." "Search warrant!" "DEA!" "Open the door!" "Runner!" "Back fence!" "Freeze!" "Get on the ground!" "Down!" "1-3065." "On that 21 delay." "9-50, Go ahead." "DSspecial." "Berry2-3 ." "We've got the code four in custody." "Cupcakes." "That looks so good." "I love you." " Hi, baby." " You're having fun on your birthday, Izzy?" "Hey, Sylvie." "Hey, let me call you back, I'm a..." "What?" "They tell you anything?" "Just to wait here until we're called." "They're treating him like he's some kind of major criminal, John." "We'll straighten it out." "Is he under my last name or yours?" "You know he changed it to mine." "Why are you even asking?" " Um, my son Jason Collins..." " Take a seat and wait to be called." "Can you at least tell me where he is?" "You noticed anything different?" "Like what?" "With him." "Who he's been hanging with, anything out of the ordinary." "No, John." "I haven't noticed anything." "This is such bullshit." "I mean, he's a good kid." "Alright, Mike's sending a lawyer." "Good, you can afford it." "Didn't you quit?" " Mr. and Mrs. Matthews?" " Yeah." " Thanks for coming." " Where's Jason?" "They're moving him from his holding cell to a court room." "He's scheduled to be arraigned this evening, that could take a little while." "It's alright." "Leave him in jail for a little bit." "Scare the hell out of him." "No one's trying to scare your son." "This is a federal case." "The amount of MDMA or ecstasy they found means they've charged Jason with distribution of narcotics." "Jason said that a friend asked to have the drugs sent to the house." " What friend?" " Uh, a friend by the name of Craig Johnson?" "That's his best friend." "Christ, I have known Craig since he was little." "Mr. Johnson was arrested trying to mail the pills, and he agreed to work with the government." "What do you mean, "agreed to work with the government"?" "Both Craig and Jason are being charged under federal mandatory minimum sentencing laws." "These laws were design to ensnare high level drug traffickers, get them to snitch on other traffickers in order to reduce their own sentences." "However, most of the convictions, over half have been first time offenders, like your son." " So, Craig is implicating Jason?" " Yes, in order to reduce his sentence." "Craig told the DEA, that Jason agreed to have the pills sent to the house," " and also has agreed to help sell them." " What?" "Now Jason has denied both of these accusations." "Do you believe him?" "Of course I believe him." "He would never be involved in anything like this." "Are we talking about probation here or could he actually go to jail for this?" "The mandatory minimum laws are very simple." "The amount of jail time depends upon the amount of drugs." "There are no mitigating factors..." "Wait, what is that mean?" "Jason is facing a mandatory minimum sentence of ten years in prison." " Ten years?" " Are you out of your mind!" "He just got accepted to college." "John, tell him." "Oh God." "Jason." "United States vs. Jason Collins." "How could they deny him bail?" "He's never even been arrested before." "You wanna know the truth?" "I knew something like this was gonna happen." "I figured if I just got him off to college." "But no." "Jason has no god damn idea what real responsibility means." "Especially with Sylvie babying him all the time." "And when your own son doesn't want have anything to do with you anymore?" " That's not true." " That's not true?" "That's not true at all." "It's just really hard for kids who go through divorces." "I acted out when my father left." "Yeah well, he's not a kid anymore." "Not while he's sitting in that cell." "Are the sprinklers on?" "Does everything have to go to shit?" "Here's the situation." "It's very simple." "You help them make trafficing arrests, and they will reduce your sentence from ten years to two." "One suspended." "I told you, I don't know anyone else." "Just Craig." "Bullshit." "Your mom told me she smelt marijuana of you before." "Where did you get that from, huh?" "Jason, this is serious." "Come on honey, you got to tell us who sold you the pot." "I didn't have to buy it." "Amanda's dad grows it." "He has medicinal license." "It's legal." "We just took some." "I just wanted to try it." "OK." "Are there any of your friend who do drugs who might be interested in selling?" "What, like setting someone up?" "Like Craig did to me?" "No way." "No way." "You better wake up, You better wake up right now, because this is really happening." "You're gonna take that plea and you're gonna help them make the arrest." "You hear me?" "I'll take my chances in court." "No, you won't." "No you won't." "If you do not work with the prosecutors, and they can raise the minimum limits to thirty years." "Which means you'll be out in time for your 50th birthday." "And they are batting over ninty percent on convictions." "Jason, baby." "Please listen to him." "We don't have another choice." " I'm not setting anyone up." " Baby, please." "177b 00:13:29,472 -- 00:13:31,442 I not doing it." "I won't do it." "Yes you are." "Listen to me dammit!" "You think you know what you're doing?" "You have no idea until you spend the next ten years of your life in prison." "I'm not gonna let that happen to you, son." "You hear me?" "You're not the one that'd have to do it." "Morning, John." "Hey, I need to show you something." "This is a..." "Well, they're beauts, ain't they?" "Er, they said the other two will be ready next month." "Yeah." "They're great." "I gotta make a call." "Teddy, John Matthews." "Good." "We definitely gotta get out, we'll hit a few." "Very soon." "Let me ask you something?" "Do you have a connection to Joanne Keeghan?" "US attorney downtown." "Mr. Matthews." "You have a lot of friends in this city." "I received four phone calls in the matter of an hour." " I'm sure you'd do the same for your kids." " I don't have any children." "Alright, well." "Let's see." "Eighteen years old." "You must've had him when you were quite young." "Sophomore in college." "Me and his mom were high school sweethearts." "Well, you have my sympathies." "But I believe in the mandatory minimum laws." "We're fighting a war right now, not just on drugs, but on the violence they bring." "And we are losing badly, so it's time for all our sakes, we have to turn this around." "Ms. Keeghan I agree." "I do." "But my son, Jason." "He's not a drug dealer." "He's a good kid." "And he just made really dumb naive mistake." "And he's willing to do anything he can to help out his situation." "The only drug dealer that he knows is" "Craig Johnson, who you already have in custody." "Well, I'm really sorry to hear that." "Please, there's gotta be something I could do." "The laws are designed to preclude any special circumstances, so it's really quite simple." "We need your son to help us make arrests before we can help him reduce his sentence." "If he can't do that, or isn't willing to do that... then there's really nothing we can do." "I'm sorry." "And now I have to be somewhere else." " What if I did it for him?" " What?" "What if I help you make arrests?" " It's not the way it works." " Please." "I just wanna help my son." "I understand, and I really am sorry, but... my hands are tied." "There's nothing I can do." "Thank you for stopping by." " How you doin'?" " Hi." " Who are you here to see?" " Jason Collins." "Okay." "Just sign in." " Proceed to booth 3." " Thank you." "What happened?" "Nothing." "Tell me." "It's OK." "Talk to me son." "It's OK, tell me." "You remember when someone kept TPing and egging your house?" "That was me." "I would sit around the corner and laugh." "And I'd watch you try to clean it up." "Doesn't matter now, Jason." "The last time I did it," "I didn't know you were out of town." "I felt like crap watching Analisa just do it herself." "So, I pretended I was just stopping by." " I helped her." " She told me." "I hated that you guys live in that big house, new family." "Me and mom were just stuck in that old one." "I wanted you to live with me." "I wanted you in my life." "But it was my fault, not yours." "I was always gone." "I was always on those trucks." "I was always working, got so caught up, and, not failing you as a father." "That's exactly what I did." "I should've never taken that package, I know what was in it." "I should've just told the guy he had the wrong address." "But I didn't, because me and Amanda wanted to try some." "But I swear to you dad, I would never ever..." "I wasn't planning on helping to sell that stuff." "I'm not a drug dealer." "You believe me, right?" "Of course I believe you." "And I know I should be punished... for what I did." "But not like this." "Jason, don't cry." "Don't cry, Jason." "Not in here." "Listen to me, Jason." "You gotta show 'em you're goin' to stand up for yourself in here." "You have to." "I promise you, I'm gonna get you out of here." "How?" "You just gotta trust me." "I love you." " What you want?" " Coke." "Crack is whack, man." "Who do you think we are, dude?" "I'll just go to somebody else." "Look man, you real about it?" "Money talks." "Get off me." "Better take this bitch's' ride too." "Cops are rolling!" "283b Thisis23 ,we 'reon scene." "We'regonna need additional backup." "Send two units" "What the hell were you thinking?" "I know." "I'm sorry I threw your name down at the station." "Your son is not gonna be better off if you're dead." "OK." "Well clearly what I did last night didn't work." " Clearly?" " Please, what do I gotta do?" "You are so stubborn." "You're not gonna stop are you?" "No." "I'm not." "Alright." "Hypothetically..." "I would need airtight arrest of someone in possession of narcotics in the amount that would constitute conspiracy to distribute." "If we're talking cocaine, that would be at least five hundred grams or half a kilo." " What?" " I'm in the construction business." "And we have ex-cons who are working the yard all the time." "Maybe someone, knows someone, who knows someone." "You're their boss." "Why would they trust you?" " Let me worry about that." " Believe me, I am not worried, because the risk is all yours." " Come on." "I'll give you a lift." " No, thank you." "But I'm good." "Hey, I'm the boss." "Get in." " How's the job treating you." " The fact that I got a job..." "Look, I guess, I'm just trying to say thank you." "You know, me and my family, we appreciate the opportunity." "It's gotta be hard for a..." " ex-con." " So, that's why we're here?" "You need to talk to me about my past?" "Cause look, I was completely honest on my application." "But if there's anything else..." "No." "That's, that's not it." "A couple of years ago I caught two of my drivers, they were transporting some stuff." "They know that the cops rarely stop semis And if they did, they sure as hell didn't have time to search 'em." "Anyway, that was small time." "I was hoping that someone with a connection into that world..." "Are you accusing me of something, sir?" "You think I've done something?" "No." "With all due respect sir." "Why don't you just go ahead and tell me what it is that you want from me." "An introduction." "I can't help you with that." "You get me in front of the right people, I give you five grand." "If something good comes out of it, I give you another five." " That's ten grand." " You know I can count man, I can count." "Like I said, I can't help you with that." "Why not?" "You see, I'm in the middle of trying to get my life in order, OK." "And I'm doing that for my family." "That's why I'm working like I do." "That's why I sweat my ass everyday in that yard." "This little conversation is just, well..." "This conversation is a conspiracy alright." "And that gets me twenty-five to life." "I would add..." "I'd appreciate it if we'd just pretend this never happened." "OK?" " I'll see you at work, sir." " I just need an introduction, OK." "I think you ought to go home, you ought to be happy with what you got." "Thank you for the coffee." "Daniel!" "Twenty grand." "I'll double it because of the risk you're taking." " Anthony, go inside." " Come on dad." "Go home, now." "Go, Go on." "Why you trippin' on pee-wee for?" "Hold up!" "Hold, hold, hold up!" "I don't care y'all sling what you sling, you all smoke what you smoke." "You blow holes in each other, If that's what you want" "But I'm gonna tell you right now." "You gotta stay away from my son." "You hear me?" "You hear me?" "What are you stupid, Flaco?" "This guy is 'Shot Caller' from the East side esse!" " Dad, why'd you..." " Anthony, go play your game." "Alright, what happened?" "Nothing happened V. It's just father and son stuff." " What are you doin'?" " I'm going to work." "What do you mean work?" " Larry called." "Told me I have to be there in an hour." " Come on V., he can't do that." "He can't just call you 7:30 at night and tell you to come work..." "He can do whatever he wants Daniel." "That is if I wanna keep my job." "Look, I'm already late." "There's food for both of you on the stove." "What are you doin' babe?" "Let me ask you something." "Let me run somethin' by you." "What if me and my little partner over there, before bed time we cruise to the office, huh?" "We charmed your guests." "Fatten up them tips." "Make it work for everybody, you know what I'm sayin'." "I'd like that." " OK, I have to go." " Don't go to work." "Don't go to work." " I love you." " I love you." "I love you." "Hey Ant, get on the couch man." "Sit down bud." "Why did we move here, man?" "We moved so you don't have to hang out with fools like that." "That's why." "Alright?" "There ain't nobody else to hang with around here." "I wanna go back to our old aparment." "You know we can't, so don't say it." "Look man, I know it's hard." "And sometimes life is, But I promise you..." "One day we gonna move somewhere, And you gonna get real friends." "A real friend... you ain't gotta proof nothing to him, you ain't gotta do nothing for him." "But those punks out there, man..." "You're better then that." "Let me tell you something else." "You're better than me, man." "You're so much better than me." "Hey, what's a 'Shot Caller'?" "Where'd you hear that?" "Don't worry about that." "I love you man." "And I'm proud of you." "You need to be smart." "Go get your homework, man." "We gonna bang it out." "Just keep going man." "All the way to the end." "Don't stop." " Right here?" " You're good." "I need to go in alone first." "This guy in here, Malik." "If he sniffs you're even a lil bit full of shit," "You're never gonna leave this block." "That's a promise." " What up, Cruz?" " What up, Malik?" "It's been a while since I seen your ass." "What house you was it last?" "Standstone, man." "It's cold as hell up there wasn't it Coz?" "That's the truth." "Me and ole boy right here we used to get it in." "Moving product like we was the United Nation and shit." " 'Cuz nobody comes to that paper." " The only color that matters is green." "So how long you've been home man?" "You just come now and see me." "Come on, Malik you know..." "I can't be asociated with no known ass criminals now." "I hear you." "That's why I be in here." "Two strikers like us, man we can't walk the street." "It ain't safe." "So I'm saying, dude, you back in the game right?" "How come youl ain't cross town with your homies?" "Just can't have any of your homies gettin' any bright ideas, man." "I'm telling you, them days, they are over for me Malik, that's it." "Right here." "It's a one time." "You're smart Coz." "Real smart." "Keep that bank to your self." "Yo homie, kill the beat." "I'm John Matthews." "Now see, that's the reaction I was looking for, player." "Ain't never had no iron in your grill before, huh?" "Now see, if you was the popo, you'd be the biggest pussy pig I'd ever seen." "Now let's have a honest conversation as to why you're in my crib." "I don't have product, or distribution, but I do know business." "If anyone needed a transportation," "I can provide that." " With no risk." " There's always risks." "My way, minimizes it." "See what I wanna know is, why a successful businessman man like yourself wanna take any risk it all?" "I'm in the construction business." "The way the economy is today, it's all gone to shit." "And I don't see any chance of it coming back." "And I'm willing to do whatever it takes to keep my business afloat." "I've worked too hard, for too long." "So how much weight can you move?" "My trucks?" "Half a ton without attracting attention." "Half a ton?" "Man, if I was in the thousand pound business I wouldn't be sitting in this dump right now." "All I'm saying is, whatever you want to move, it won't matter in my trucks." "You know they weigh them trucks at the state lines though, right." "How you gonna cover that?" "We offset the weight." "Count's off all the time." "If the police get lucky, they'll only get the driver." "We won't be there for the holding or unloading." "Sounds like he ready for the game." " So, what are you talking player?" " Fifteen percent wholesale." "I don't give nobody over ten percent." "I know I got somethin' to prove to you." "If the first run goes good, then we re-negotiate." "You gonna drive the first load." "Everybody know what game Malik is." "We have to see if you for real first." "And then, maybe, just maybe, we go back to talkin'." "Done." "Go on, chill outside for a minute." "Let me and my boy Cruzzer here have a word." "You gonna ride shotgun." "No, no, no." "No, Malik." "Maybe you misunderstood why I'm here." "Misunderstood?" "Yeah, maybe you misunderstood." "I'm here for an introduction, Malik." "Hell no, Cruzzer." "See, you wouldn't be vouchin' for no fish if we was back in the yard." "You know how this work." "We ain't talking no hoe time homie." "We in the streets." "That's three strikes, bro." "And third stirke for me is the third strike for you my man." "So you better be convincing me right now, or he's smoke." "And we can act like none of this never happened." "It's your call, man." "So this first round, I'll be gonna be going with you." "But we do it my way, I say how it goes." " What do you mean?" " I wanna get paid today." "OK, so I don't know if we have to go see your banker." "I don't care man, go rob a store." "But I need to get paid." "Don't worry, you'll get your ten grand." "No ten grand, man." " We said twenty grand, that what you said to me." " And then what?" "You skip town on me?" "With all the money?" "So you comin' with me on this first run, that's fine,.." "the moment it's done, you'll get your other ten." " My word." " Your word?" "Only reason this is going down because I went on the line with you." "You know, three days ago man, I was working a job." "I was staying clean." "I was doing everything I was supposed to do." "And now here I am, man." "I'm back in." "You think this is some kind a thrill for me?" "Would you just please take me my money." "Y'all checked him out with them niggas at Sandstone?" "They sayin' Cruz is solid." "He's on the main line like he said." "Soldierin' up." "Puttin' in work like a good wood should." "Even had keys to the yard for a minute." "That's the Cruzzer I know." " What about our other player?" " Bone said he live in the suburbs." "Phat crib." "With a wife, little girl." "He ain't 5-0 that for sure." "He better not be." "But it's here on us with El Topo." "You know, the new TV spots are testing really well with the core." "Then why am I down by five points?" "Because the liberals think you're a bitch." "Oh, well maybe I should go to a gay wedding." " It wouldn't hurt." " Oh, please." "Listen, your nine hundred convictions last year alone, they speaks volumes to our core, alright." "But to win this primary, the key to this progress is getting some crossover." " Your next meeting is checking in down at security." " Who is it?" " John Matthews." " I'll need a coffee." "Let's go over her press schedules." "Man, if I was in the thousand pound business I wouldn't be sitting in this dump right now." "All I'm saying is, whatever you want to move it won't matters in my trucks." "So I looked at it as a business thing." "What do I have that they want." "I'm impressed." "You're a natural." "You're lucky he didn't rip you open, man." "He's a heavy hitter." " Runs the entire Adams district now." " What's his jacket?" "He earned his stripes on the corner as a punk ass kid." "Did a nickle for ADW, three more for distribution." "Rivals robbed his bank last year." "Instead of sending out his posse to do a drive by, he tracked 'em each down and bled 'em out with a buck knife." "Personally." "Alright, I'm signing off." "Cooper is my witness." "We arrest Mr. Anderson, and I will reduce Jake's sentence." " Jason." " Right, sorry." "Jason's sentence." " By how much?" " I'll cut it to a year." "Come on, I can't let 'em get off scott free." "And with the time that he's already served," "Jason will probably be out in six months." "That is the best that I can do." " OK." " Alright." "Rock and roll." "Is she gonna keep her word?" "Don't give her reason not to." " Hi, daddy." " Hey, honey." "How long are you going away for?" "Just two days." "That's it." "Do you know how much I love you, Izzy?" "Alright." "Come here." "Are you sure you have to go now?" " You know with everything going on with Jason?" " Yeah, we need the contract." "Specially after those new trucks we bought." "Come on, Iz." "Let's go." "We gotta go to school." "I want you to finish." "Have your toast." "You getting ready to go out on one of those trucks?" " How long are you going for?" " Shit, I don't even know where we're goin' to." "It's good thing your boss is giving you more responsibility." "It means he believes in you." " I'm proud of you." " You proud of me?" " Yeah." " That is a good thing." "I love you too." "Wires in the semi are in place." "We'll do the same to the warehouse once you're gone." "I know you've done this before." "Undercover." "You have any advice?" "Just be yourself, John." "You try to be something you're not, they're bloodhounds." "They'll smell it right away." "You're a family man, who's trying to stay afloat." "You have means they could use." "That's it, you hide in plain sight." "You just keep doing what you're doing." "And they'll believe it." "Because it's the truth." "Alright, audio's up." "Here we go." " The trucks GPS, so be still." " Alright." "You got it." "In here." " Where're we going?" " El Paso, right by the border." "That's over a thousand miles." "What'd you think?" "We'd just go around the corner?" "If you don't mind me asking." "How long were you in prison for?" "Just a little over a nickle." "You never told me if you have kids." "What are you doing, man?" "Just don't do that." "You don't need to ask me about my life alright, and I won't ask you about yours." "That guy said we're about a hundred and fifty miles out." "I got it." "I got it." "I got it." "We gotta get this thing moving'." "We can't." "We can't." " Check my right." "Check my right." " You're good, you're good, you're good." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Stop, stop!" "What're you doing?" "Go, go, go." "John, what are you doing?" "Matthews left in the semi." "Hit Torres' ride in the process." " Is Torres mobile?" " Negative." "We got local PD responding to shots fired." "Tell Torres to superseed PD." "No one sets foot in that yard." "No one tips off Malik's suppliers." "Torres, talk to me." "Let's go." "Let's go." " What the hell was that?" " I don't know man." "We gotta hide this thing." "No, we gotta get back on the interstate." "Public, moving." "Yeah man." "I'm sorry for your trouble." "Your driver." "He has fortitude." "He handled the situation very well." " We will use that." " Glad to hear it." "I'll let you know when he get here." "Them esses don't play, boy." "Smoked everyone of them buster." "They are back digging ditches right now." " Who trying to jack 'em?" " Man, I don't even care nigga." "What I care about is El Topo lovin' them trucks." "Gonna take our game to a whole nother level." "You hear?" "You have one new message." "Hi, honey." "I got your message about your meeting being delayed." "But Izzy is really excited to make you dinner tomorrow night." "I love you, bye." "Alright everybody, get live." " Alright we're here." " Black Yukon on Worth and 4th." "Put the work in the back of your boys truck and follow it." "Malik, you know that had nothing to do with us, man." "Man just handle business and get there, homie." "He's changing up the meet." "Said he wants us to put it in your pickup." "Alright, There's a hidden compartment behind the back seat." "Where're you going?" "Take a leak." "Yeah?" " Tell me you got a wire on that truck." " In the dash and the back." "Sims, get that helo on 'em too." "I need Raven 1 over the following location." "Who'd you call, John?" "I asked you a question." "Who'd you call, man?" " My wife." " Your wife." "You expect me to believe that?" "Why don't you go ahead and grab that beam for me, man." "I said grab that beam." "Now Turn your ass around and grab that beam." "You playing me, man?" "John you need to know that if this comes down to either you or me," "I will take your life." "I will shoot you where you stand." "Do you understand me?" "Now, I'm gonna ask you one last time..." "Who did you call?" " My wife." " You want to bullshit me, man!" "It was my wife!" "It was my wife Daniel, it was my wife." " Come on, man." "Don't you lie to me!" " That's the truth!" "You have a cellphone in your truck." "Why didn't you use it?" "I wanted her to see the caller ID from the warehouse." "So she believes that I'm working my ass off to save the company." "That's the truth!" "You did this." "You did this." "Lay back." "661b 01:02:01,099 -- 01:02:02,688 Go and flash your lights." "Alright, right here." "Let's just let them get out first, alright." "I want ot make it easy on 'em in cause you've got other plans." "Like what?" "Shootin' our asses and they ain't gonna pay." "Alright we good." "668b 01:03:15,697 -- 01:03:17,397 Hawk, is on target." "We'll take 'em on their way out." "Welcome to the real party, player." "Heard it cracked off earlier." "You ain't got cold feet, do you?" "I'm here." "Let me see one, man." "Taste." " I'm good." " I ain't asking'." "Get on ya quick, huh?" "Here's ten Gs to keep." "You're welcome." "I have visual confirm of the exchange." "Just hold until my signal." "I got some people that wanna sit down and talk." "Could be some serious paper." " Real serious." " What?" "I'll let you know." "Like we're back in the yard, ah Cruzzer?" "He's heading towards the exit, what do you gonna do?" " Let 'em go." " Repeat." "Repeat." "Let 'em go." "Alright John, let's go man. we're done." "Let's get out of here." "Man, Let's go." " What are you looking at man?" " Just makin' sure they're gone." "They're gone, dude." "What's with you?" "Just the stuff I took." "That's it." "Let's go." "It's 11 o'clock." "I thought you were coming home for dinner." "Where were you?" " I was at work." " No, there's something going on." "We're supposed to be an open book, remember?" "Is this about Jason?" "Please talk to me." "I have no idea what's going on." "If I help them make arrests, They'll reduce Jason's sentence." "OK, how?" "How are you supposed to help them?" "By doing a drug deal." " Are you out of your mind?" " You wanted to know." "People get shot and killed." " I know that, Analisa." "This is my son." " You have more than one child, John!" "And I'd do the same thing for her." "You know that." "But this is not my rules." "It's their rules." "Which means that every move that I make, or I don't make," "Jason will have to live with for the next ten years of his life." "And what if you don't live?" "Baby, have you thought about that?" "You have a family here too." "And I hope that I have your support when the time comes." "You're not old enough to vote though are you?" "John, my secretary said you needed to see me?" "You said all we need was either Malik and drugs in the same place." "That's exactly what we had last night." "We had a deal!" "We had it done." "Don't tell me to calm down!" "717b 01:08:20,652 -- 01:08:22,516" " Calm down!" " We had ten keys, and he let 'em go!" "717c 01:08:22,530 -- 01:08:23,516 This is my kid's life, God damn it!" " It's not just about you." " Stop it." "Malik's supplier is gonna be at next exchange." "Cooper made the call and it was the right one." "You go for the highest target, John." "You just have to be patient." "Take the next meeting." "Your son'll be alright." "Oh great!" "You have Malik single handed with ten keys and you let him go?" " He would've given up everybody." " Oh bullshit he would've." " I had to make a judgement." " No you didn't." "It is my call." "And I will decide exactly how this comes down." "Do you understand?" "It's that clear?" "Crystal." "Hey, Sylvie." "They took what?" "Yo Manny, lend me tu carro, bro." "I came to visit Jason, they wouldn't let me see him." "They said he was in the infirmary." " What happened?" " He was assaulted." "They said he had over thirty-six stiches." "When they said assaulted..." "I don't know, they said they were gonna keep him in at least two more days, and there's no way that you and can even see him." "I'm trying here, right?" "I talked to the lawyers at" "'Project Innocent' and they said that they were gonna use his case..." "It's not gonna last that long." "I don't see you getting anywhere!" "Oh, God..." "Damn it!" "I did this to him." "I did it." "Damn it, John!" "I should've known, I should've known he was in trouble." "I should've been able to protect him." "God damn it, John!" "This is a nightmare." "It's not your fault." "What's going on?" "You followed me here?" "Who'd you visit?" "It's my son." "Look man." "He made a mistake." "His friends set 'em up." "They said if we cooperate, if we help 'em..." "You made a deal?" "You got any idea what they're gonna do to us man?" "You have any idea?" "It ain't just Malik, man." "It's, it's the cartel, man." "You know what they gonna do to our families, man?" " It's my son." " Your son?" "What about my son, man?" "I got a son, John." "You're a dead man, John." "You're a dead man." "Where's your mom?" "She's sleeping." "Vanessa, what are you doing?" "Is this what you're doing on your work trip, huh?" "Can't even take care of your own God damn son?" "!" "Vanessa, he's in the other room." "Look it's not what you think OK." " Listen to me." "It's not what you think." " Bullshit!" "You made me a promise, Daniel!" " Baby, I need you to pack..." " I stay cleaning, you stay away from that life." "Remember?" "Baby, I understand baby." "But right now what I need you to do is..." "I need you to pack a bag for you and Anthony." "You need to stay with your mama." "You don't tell me what to do." "Not after lying!" "Enough OK?" "Just..." "Look, I'm..." "I'm in trouble baby." "I am in trouble, OK." "Please don't do that Vanessa." "Sweatheart..." "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." "I can't do it again." "I can't watch you go to prison or... or end up dead." "Baby, that is not gonna happen." "Do you hear me?" "That is not gonna happen." "I'm not going anywhere, sweety." "Why do you do this to us?" "Why do you keep doing this?" "I'm scared..." "I'm sorry." " They just came right in." " Where's Isabelle?" "She's still at school." "Get her, take her to your sisters'." "Now!" "Go!" "What are you doing here, Malik?" "I like your ole lady." "She in a hurry, huh?" "What do you want?" "You want that paper, right?" " What about Daniel?" " What about him?" "Come on man, El Topo waiting'." "Only him." "Arms out." "You have a cellphone?" " Yeah." " It no longer works." "Or anything else on you electronic." "I understand your business is in a complicated spot." "Pretty hard to make money nowadays." "It doesn't have to be." "When you work for us, you wil be treated like family." "Of course, includes your wife, and your child." "I hear Isabelle is a beautiful girl." "You and Analisa are really lucky to, to have her." " Thank you." " Bueno." "You will make this next trip alone." "Once you make the pick up, you will take it in to Mexico." "We will unload your construction supplies as well before you cross back to the border... so everything looks legitimate." "For this, you will be paid two hundred and fifty thousand dollars." "If all goes well, you will see much more." "Show us your loyalty." "And your future will be bright, my friend." "I will call you the day after tomorrow at 10am with an address." "Be ready to leave." "What about Malik?" "You work for us now." "Let's get one thing clear, man." "You still works for me." "Got it." "Just handle your business player." "'Cuz I ain't letting nobody gettin' in the way of me and my bread." " John, are you OK?" " You're at Gaby's yet?" "In like thirty minutes." "You can't go there now." "Why?" "836b 01:19:48,955 -- 01:19:50,749 I need you to pull over so we can talk about this." "No, God damn!" "Tell me now." "What is happening?" "Is my sister in danger?" "Mommy, where are we?" "I love you, John." "I do." "They knew my wife and kids name." "Dammit!" " What did they know about Jason?" " They don't." " How the hell do you know that?" " Because from the moment we started this operation, we log you separately into NATIS." " What is NATIS?" " It's a Fed data base." "Anyone who logs in to your case file runs your name or Jason's" "They notify me." "They ran your name yesterday at noon." "That's why they know about Analisa and Isabelle." " And not Jason." " No, because he's listed under his mother's maiden name and you don't have the same address." "He's safe." "Who'd you meet with?" "Malik called them El Topo." " Who is he?" " He's Juan Carlos Montero." "They call him 'The Mole'." "El Topo." "He's ex-Mexican paramilitary and he runs this region for the Nuevo León cartel." "That's who he is." "Yeah, and Pintero would seriously cripple their organisation." "What did he say about the run?" "Just that there was another pick up." "And I gotta take it into Mexico." " What, in to Mexico?" " Why?" "Because that means you're running their money this time." "You see John." "One of the ways that we're fighting the cartel is to stop them getting their profit." "Right now it's virtually impossible for them to wire money in, so they have to physically transport it." "Hundreds of millions of dollars." "This could be an incredible opportunity for us." "Especially if we got Pintero too." "Can I talk to you for a minute?" "Yeah sure." "John, would you excuse us for a second?" "I'd appreciated it." "Thanks." " What?" " You know damn well what." "El Topo's a game changer, and he's way out of his depth." "Are you kidding me?" "We can still bring in Malik." " No." " We squeeze him for his third strike..." "There's no way El Topo is gonna be at the exchange tomorrow." "I am not missing this opportunity, even if we don't get him." "You know the way this works, you follow the drugs, you get players." "You follow the money, you get a 'kingpin'." "You know that if he crosses that border, he's never coming back." "You good with that?" "John?" " Sit down." "Drink?" " No." " Coffee?" " No." "We had a deal." "I deliver Malik to you, you reduce my son's sentence to a year." "I'm really sorry, but we are way past Malik now." "If we pick him up, we're gonna tip off the cartel." " And what if I go to a judge?" " You can if you want to, but... with the mandatory minimum laws, a judge has no say to reduce the sentence, only the federal prosecutor does, and that's me." "Look." "This is the last stop." "You've been very patience." "I give you my word." "Your son is coming home soon." " Immediately." " 'Scuse me?" "I go through with this, Jason comes home that instant." "Then I'll make sure that every parent out there knows how compassionate you've been to my son." "OK." "You complete this, and I will have the judge release your son." "But, I need the money, and the arrest of a cartel player, nothing less." "Hey, John." "What time they calling you with the pick up address?" "10:30." "Tomorrow morning." "There's a reason they pick Sunday, it's a high traffic day at the border." "Less inspections." "You don't think this is a good idea, do you?" "Hey man." "Don't matter what I think." "You made a deal with the 'Dragon Lady', not me." "John, you gotta know there's a reason they pick you so quick for this run." "Cartels don't use their own people to carry loads." "They recruit... guys like you." "Favorite target is a... middle class kid in a school." "Make it sound all exciting to carry a backpack full of dope for pockets full of cash." "Then they do it." "These guys threaten to kill our families." "They use 'em, they abuse 'em," "They end up in a barrell full of acid." "That's it, they're gone." "Done." "Easy come, easy go." "Because there's always be another mule to take their place." "Brother you gotta know this is one serious backpack you're about to carry." "Hello." "I'm here to see my son." "He should be out of the infirmary." "I see, under Matthews?" "Jason Collins." "Just sign in." " Go to window 4." " Alright." "Thank you." "Are you OK?" "I'm fine." "God dammit." "I can't keep letting this happen to you." "They said anything about moving you?" "How is everybody?" "How's Izzy?" "She doin' alright?" "I've been wanting to tell you something." "I admire you so much." "The stand you're taking." "You didn't take the easy way out." "Not setting up one of your friends." "I couldn't do what you did." "So looks like you're the one teaching me." "What real character and integrity is all about." "I love you son." "I love you too." " Who is it?" " It's John." "What are you doing here, man?" "I parked a few blocks away." "Just in case somebody's watchin'." "Daniel, thank you for not ratting me out." "Believe me man, I thought about it." "If I don't go through with this, they're not gonna release my son." "What you don't understand, man..." "You play nice with the feds, man." "But what happens when Malik and everyone finds out that you're an informant?" "What happens to me?" "That puts me right with you." "They know I'm a rat." "They will hunt us down, man." "They will..." "They're gonna come after our families, John." "Daniel, I know I'm the one who put us all in this danger." "And I gotta live with that." "But there is no way..." "I'm gonna let either side... dictate our fates." "No way." "The address come through?" "Yeah, I know the area." "It's gonna take about an hour and a half to get there." "The route is only fifty-two miles west of your warehouse." "Well, it's still gonna take ninty minutes in a semi." " No longer." " I'm leavin' now." "Both wires, loud and clear." " Our guy's twelve miles out." " OK." "He's been sitting there fifteen minutes." "What's he doing?" " Shit." "Alright, let's do a drive by." "Shit." "Anybody hear anything?" "Voices?" "Struggle?" "Where the hell are you, John?" "What took you so long, man?" "Just lost the DEA." "We're on." "Hey John." "You sure you can pull this off, right?" "Not without your part, No." "I need that number." "We counted every dollar." "You will be responsible for it." "We can't triangulate his cell." "Maybe it's turned off." "Why would he ditch us?" " What's the address in Mexico?" " Head to El Paso, to the main border crossing." "I will tell you which lane." "Only you are gonna be be in the truck to avoid suspicion." "We're gonna follow in the cars." "Once you cross, the people in Juarez, they're gonna direct you to the final stop." "Alright." "I like them yard tactics, homie." "Straight bum rush." "That's the Cruzzer I know." "I need a number on El Topo, bro." "Yo, Malik," "I'm gonna call 911, man." "Man, me and you both know they're already on their way." "Yeah?" "You and I know if I cross into Mexico, I'm a dead man." "So you think you better off going alone?" "Despite what you might think of me, John..." " I am your only protection on this." " Yeah, maybe so." "But as many times as you guys changed the game on me" "I had to put some things in the play first." "Yeah, like what exactly?" "You know my deal with Keeghan was for the money and the bust." "Well, I'm gonna make sure that it happens on this side of the border." "I want you to track the cell number that I'm on," "I'm in one my other trucks right now, and it's filled with their cash." "John, listen to me." "I just got a hit on NATIS." "Somebody connected you with Jason." "I don't know who it is, but we're working on it." "John, can you hear me?" " Pull over, now!" " What's happening there?" "They know." "Get Jason into protective custody." " They'll have people on the inside." " Don't you worry about him." "We're on it." "We got units coming to him now." "We already got the prison on lockdown." "He's in isolation cell." "Locate a second number." "It's 517-555-0199." " It's El Topo's cell." " Get me that number track now!" "Puta!" "Did you get him?" "Yeah." "We locked his position off his cell." "I've tactical teams en route." "I'm shot in the leg." "John, listen to me, hang in there." "I've got units responding to you now." "Just get off at Woodworth." "It's the next exit." "I'll have them converge there." " Clear!" " Kitchen clear." "House is all clear." "No one's home." " Just missed him." " Turn around." "He's heading north by Nichols." "Seal the perimeter." "Alright, show me your hands!" "Show the hands, now!" "Shut it off!" "Keep 'em up!" "Ladies and gentlemen." "We are here today to announce the arrest of Juan Carlos Pintera, and other key members of the Nuevo León cartel." "Rest assured you will be safer tonight." "Thank you." "So you gonna vote for her?" "John, you did a great thing." "Thank you so much." " I only wish I could tell people about it." " Nah, it's OK." "As long as I see Jason free in the morning, is all I need." "7am sharp." "He'll be out." "So how is your family dealing with going into witness protection?" "I haven't told them yet." "Coop, Daniel James." " How's the arm?" " I'll live." "Heard you're refusing' witsec?" "Yeah, we got a plan." "Just gonna disappear on our own." "So, what you need me to do is a statement right?" "That's why I'm here." " Start by signing that." " Wait a second man, what is that?" "Listen." "You've got nothing to worry about, Daniel." "We know you were instrumental in this bust." " A hundred Gs?" " Yes, reward money for capture of Juan Carlos Pintera." "That's John Matthews's money, man." "Well, he said something about having to lay you off." "Let's get started." "Let's go home." "Thank you." "Subs completely redone by zathras69"
