"I've promised to protect... our constitution..." " Why won't anybody stop him?" " He's the owner." "Who the fuck do you think you are?" "Ramón!" "It's me, it's me, it's me!" "How are you, Chapo?" "What did he do?" "I didn't like his haircut." " Let's go inside, man." " Yeah." "TOÑO CHAPO'S GUNMAN" " Why did you want to see me?" " I have a business proposal." "Cut it out, Ramón." "Weed, how much?" "Blow." "I like my plants better, Chapo." "They're cheaper." "But it won't last." "Sooner or later, it will be legalized." "Whoever controls the marijuana business wins." "Maybe." "But for now, Yankees want blow." "What are you thinking?" "Tijuana's the best place to cross the border." "And I'm the best man for the job." "Let's be partners." "You open your territory for me, and I do the crossing." "We all win." "Why do you like to complicate things, fucker?" "Meaning?" "You know how it is, Chapo, how it will always be." "If we eventually turn to coke, we'll use Amado, not you." "No offense, Chapo, but bosses only deal with bosses." " Let's go." " Where?" " The airport." " They said no."

"They're bigger." "Open up." "No, no, wait, boss." "Don't open that one, I'll lose two kilos." "It's double the money." "Come on, you know us." "We always use this route." "Please." "I'll give you your part." "Okay?" "Wait here." "There you go." "Next time, I'll bring some crackers for the boys, okay?" "Please close the doors, I don't want the cans to get dirty."

"You have enough money, but you go and do this." "Trying to fuck with the Avendaños." "What are you talking about?" "They know nothing about this." "Stop complaining and help me." "Put the money in the bag." "You want revenge because they belittled you." "Am I wrong?" " Am I wrong?" " About what?" "About you wanting revenge." "Just like your father did."

"Your job would be to be my slave." "Any problems with that?" " No." " Good." "I have to choose between you and another man like you." "Both graduated college with honors and all that shit." "Why should I choose you?" "Because I want to be president." "And I don't mind starting as an ass-kisser." "CONSTRUCTION BEGINS FOR THE FIRST MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON" "Wake him up." "Boss." "Boss."

"You can't do this to my client." "It's inhuman." "Uncuff him." "I'm not Amado... but if you had called me, I'd have come." "Not if you knew you wouldn't be allowed to leave again." "There are deals in place." "That's in the past." "Fucking traitors." "That's why the newbie ordered that prison to be built." "He wants to change the rules." "Not just the rules."

"LIVAS MIGUEL ÁNGEL'S LAWYER" "Don Miguel Ángel sends his regards." "As you know, this meeting has been called on his behalf so we can reorganize the business after his arrest." "But before we start, Miguel Ángel wants you to meet the person who'll be in charge from now on." "Good morning, everyone." " What's this?" " Please, sit." "What's this, Livas?" "Please, sit." "We'll distribute Miguel Ángel's territories by mutual agreement with the federal government." "Everyone, calm down." "Don Miguel's orders." "Please, sit." "Division of territories."

" Okay." "You'll go on my behalf, so buy a very nice present." "Tell the Avendaños I'm sorry, I had a family emergency or something, but make it good." "Why can't you make it?" "Because we have work to do." "Don't fuck this up." "You wanted to be a boss so bad, and now you won't enjoy it?" "You're wrong, Güero." "I want to enjoy everything." "But the more power I have, the more I'll enjoy it." "You have to walk before you start running, pal." "Easy does it." "Miguelón is in jail, man." "We can start running now." "His men have no leader." "Rayo will go to the party, and we'll recruit Miguel's men before someone else does it." "If you tell me what you need," " maybe I can help you." " Move." "Easy, easy, everyone!" "We just want to talk to your boss." "Boss." "Nobody move!" "We just want to talk." "Your boss is in jail, yes or no?" "Well, yes." " And you want to keep working?" "Shh." " Yes, sir, but..." "It's your choice." "Stay on the losing side and keep working for Miguel Ángel, or come work for me on the winning side." "I'm sorry, boss, but I can't ditch Miguel Ángel that easily." " Are you afraid he'll kill you?" " Yes." " But you're not afraid I'll kill you?" " Well, yes." "But I'm more scared of him."

"We'll take the evidence and leave." "We don't want no trouble." "I don't know what you're talking about." "That your guards are waiting to kill us." "But we aren't leaving alone." " You're coming with us." " Move!" "Let's go." "This way." "Hey!" " So we weren't overreacting." " Don't shoot." "Put the guns down." " Or your boss dies." " Put them down!" "Easy, pal." "Grab the briefcase." " Happy birthday, love." " Thanks." " Happy birthday, Dad." " Thanks, son." " Pal." " Thanks, man." " This is amazing." " My pleasure, man." "It was the least I could do for you." "No need to thank me." "Well, look at that." "Rayo López." "You're a sight for sore eyes, sweetie." " Are you staying here?" " Yes." "But even if I wasn't, with you here, I'd change hotels in no time." "So, want to have a drink?" "And you can tell me what you're doing here." "Okay." "But just one." "Happy birthday, Don Ismael!" "Ramón." "Thanks." "Do you remember our boy?" "Lobito?" "Of course." "See how tall he is?" "Don't be like that, asshole." " Pay your respects." " Happy birthday, Don Ismael." " Thanks, boy." " Come on, Ismael." " Excuse me." " Of course, man." "What's this?" "Is it for me?" "It's a present for a party I'm going to." "If you want anything, just ask." "Your wish is my command." " Cut it." " I'm not doing anything." " Where were we?" " You never change..." "Tell me about that party." "You'll have to see it to believe me." "But I think that can be arranged, don't you?" "Cheers." "Whoever did this came for whatever was in there." "General, one of the guards is still alive." "He saw everything." "It was Guzmán Loera, El Chapo." "That asshole Chapo isn't here yet." "Güero is late, too." "He can't do this shit." "Who does that fucker think he is?" "Slow down with the alcohol, Ramón." "I want a quiet night." "There you go." "Thanks." "Rayo, did you really have to come?" " We should have stayed at the hotel." " I have to do this for my pal." " Just a few minutes, and we can go." " Okay." "Let's go." "What's up?" "What's your name?" "Armando López, but they call me Rayo." " I love that song." "Let's go!" " Just a minute." "You're not on the list." "I can't let you in." "Then look for my pal's name." "Go ahead." "I'm gonna ask you to leave." " We're not going in?" " Wait." "I told you." "Look for my pal's name." "El Chapo." "Joaquín Guzmán, go on." "I said, leave." " Don't talk to me like that, asshole." " What's your problem?" " Wait." "I said, wait!" " I'm sorry, he drank too much..." "There it is." "Look, here." "Are you blind or what?" "Look, man." "Armando, stop it." "Listen to your woman, asshole." "Don't tell me what to do, fucker." "I'm here on behalf of Chapo Guzmán, move." "No, no, stop it!" "Stop it now!" "What are you doing?" "Stop!" "I don't give a fuck about that asshole." " Am I lying?" " Leave him alone!" "Stop this now!" " What the fuck?" " Stop it!" "Leave him alone!" "Ramón!" "Jimmy." " Let him go!" " Let him go!" " Ramón, it's me." "Rayo." " What the fuck are you doing here, fucker?" "I'm here on behalf of Chapo." "Who the fuck does he think he is, sending a cheap drunk?" " Watch it, asshole." " Your boss is the asshole, fucker." "Send this to Chapo." "Ramón!" "Follow me, please." "For your troubles, Doctor." "They belittle me and then kill my man." "This is the end of the Avendaños, Güero." "Sir, Joaquín Guzmán Loera is the killer." "They call him Chapo." "I believe we should kill hm." "Go ahead." " I think that would be a mistake, sir." " Don't disrespect the president, asshole." "Easy." "Let him speak." "With all due respect, Mr. President... the bosses see General Blanco as an imposed leader." "They didn't choose him." "If we kill one of them so soon, the balance we have now could be disrupted." "What's your name?" "Conrado Higuera Sol, Mr. President." "Due to his lack of experience, Mr. Sol can't understand that you don't ask the drug lords for their opinion." "You give them orders, and they must follow them." "If they don't, you kill them." "You're both right." "Control that Chapo." "But do it... without violence." "Like Mr. Sol suggested." "Of course, sir." "I'm sorry, General." "It was careless of me." " It won't happen again, sir." " Of course it won't!" "Because if it does, you'll be dining with maggots." "Subtitle translation by María Pía Rebussone"
