"Other than the fun of saying, twice now in the last minute, that you are on top?" "ngratulations on becoming CEO." "So, how'd Frank take being passed over?" "He cries himself to sleep every night." "Just like you will tonight when Duque kicks Nadore's ass again." "Rub it in." "It's not enough that Pancho calls me "Mr. Ruand. "" "As in, "Nadore's not good enough to sip straight."

"We have a good reputation, and name in this community." "I can't look the other way anymore." "I don't member your "prominent family" around when you needed help with your little club here." "I was around." "Now you stand here with such disrespect." "Henry..." "There's nothing worse to me than ungrateful men." "Nothing." "Go away." "I have real business to do." "I think we may have to add another setting to the tables." "There's a lot of people coming." "It's good." "Thanks." "*" "Wow." "Has there ever been a more beautiful pregnant woman?" "Tell me that in six months when I can't see my feet." "I'd better get this dance in then." "I'm glad you're here." "I wouldn't miss it." "You know how important is day is to Pop." "Hey."

"Beeen our two families and the Fanjuls, as sugar growers, we have certainly done our part for Florida literacy." "Exactly." "Here we are, practically neighbors, and yet we hardly know each other at all." "Well, hopefully, serving on this committe will give us a chance to." "I hope so." "I'd like to think at least a few of us in the Samuels d Duque broods would be able to get along." "My husband and your father, they just want to win at business." "Maybe so, but... well, why do we have to be part of the collateral damage?" "Oh, you know, those late-night secret meetings." "I swear, you'd think they were government spies."

"" "I can't wait to be your husband." "I can't wait to be your wife." "Whoa, whoa." "Drive." "What d'you mean, she's a free agent?" "She doesn't believe in contracts." "It's against her religion." "According the head of Harbour One." "That's not surprising with that kind of creative talent." "So where is this Terry?" "Apparently taking meetings all over town until she heads home tomorrow." "Well, let's set a meeting." "We'll convince her." "This is the place to be." "I don't think we're the ones who can do that." "And think we are." "What is this, Frank?" "Come on, set the meeting." "You know, while you've been off doing God knows what, I've actually been here, working, so why don't you just let me say what I need to say?" "Fine." "Papiit's not about business." "This is not about who can thw enough money her way." "A free agent like Terry Greenway wants more." "She's an artist." "She wants to be free to create." "So a couple of guys in suits, we're not gonna convince her that Duque Rum is the place to be." "Only you can that." "What you got there?" "Nothing." "Let me see." "No." "Baby..." "You can't." "Why not?" "Because it's bad luck." "You know, I never thought I'd be changing for my wedding in aotel room in Georgia, but..." "Well..." "Are you okay?" "You haven't said a word since Galveston." "Yeah." "I'm fine." "Not having a..." "second thoughts?" "No,'m not having second thoughts." "We're doing this." "No, no, no, no, no, no." "No!" "Let me see!" "Why not?" "No." "Because!" "Really quick." "Stubborn." "So much for our Saturday." "I know." "I'm sorry." "Where were you?" "I told you." "I had that business meeting in Miami." "Mm-hmm." "And since when do business meetings require a gun?" "I checked after you left." "You don't trust me now?" "Are you in danger?" "I mean, are we in danger?" "No, no, no, no." "Everythi's fine." "I'm safe, you're safe." "No, no." "I have not felt safe in a long time." "You don't mean that." "Alex, you leave because yohave emergency calls." "You're never home for dinner." "You leave without saying good-bye." "I've been busy!" "All the stuff that's going on." "This... it'll calm down." "Stop it!" "Stop shutting me out." "am your wife." "I deserve to know what's going on." "I saw you." "Right there." "With Vince Grasso... hand in your gun." "I saw you." "It was about this man Quiñones." "The one that was at the 4th of July party, huh?" "Yes." "He's dead." "Oh, God." "Alex, please tell me you had nothing to do with this." "That's why Grasso had the gun tested- to prove just that." "Because he knows that I would never get mixed up in something like that." "Isabel... you know me better than that." "You more than anyone." "Got one of those for me?" "Salud." "I will never let anything happen to you... to my family." "You know that, right?" "You know tt, right?" "Dame los manos." "Easy, easy." "Easy!" "Easy." "Easy." "Easy!" "¡Abre!"

"And do you, Haime Alejando Vega, take Rebecca Jeannette King to be your lawfully wedded wife?" "I do." "Yes." "Absolutely, I do." "Okay, you're supposed to wait for me to tell you to do that." "May I offer you anything, some coffee?" "I'm fine, thank you." "Tea?" "Oh, kiwiompote?" "I'm allergic to kiwi, actually." ", my goodness." "Well, I'll leave you two alone." "Don't think for one moment that you have a free pass with blondie over there just because you're sick." "Ms. Greenway, thank you for coming." "She's lovely, your wife." "Very spunky." "Uh, yes." "That she is, yes." "Please." "Thank you." "Wow." "So this is where the great Pancho Duque comes to ponder his next masterpiece." "Ponder, yes." "Masterpiece..." "I'm not sure." "Please." "Well, the rum judges agree with me." "Well, they didn't agree with me." "I thought your blend should've w." "My blend?" "Mm-hmm." "You're very kind." "No, actually, no." "Just honest." "Ms. Greenway..." "I want you to be my successor in this room." "What?" "Mm-hmm, yes, you." "Why me?" "Life is short." "When you see something great, you grab it." "Although "grab" is not t word I would use when talking about you." "My wif as you say, is rather spunky." "Uh... wow." "Um, well, I'm flattered, of course, but..." "I'm not sure I'm ready for the pressure and responsibility of such an important label." "I mean, I'd be follong a legend." "ople like us don't think like that." "Were you thinking of pressure and responsibility when you decided to mix the yeast culture as you fermented the aguaiente?" "You could taste at?" "I've considered doing it many times, but I lack the nerve." "Well, you were right." "My first dozen batches wereewage." "They were undrinkable." "Yes, but then you hit on just the right mix." "Yeah, on a night I was drunk." "When I've done some of my finest work." "Can I ask... did I taste a used cognac cask mixed in with the oak and old bourbon barrels in this year's blend?" "Now you must work here." "That, or I'll have to kill you since you know I my secrets." "I ew it." "Where did you come up with that idea?" "I dreamt it." "You dream of blends, too?" "Not as much as when" "I was younger, but yes." "I need you, my dear." "Someone who still dreams of rum every night." "Well, not every night." "Some nights are still reserved for Clive Owen." "It's a nice place." "Your brother's a veryortunate man." "Dmitry and his crew?" "Less fortunate." "They'll be selling elsewhere." "What do you have there?" "The good stu." "¡Ay, mama!" "I'm in your debt." "We're friends now." "It's what we do for one another." "¡Ay, Artie!" "¡Ay, ay, ay!" "Ah!" "For a free Cuba." "For a free Cuba." "Ah!" "You know we can't tell anybody about this." "I know." "And that whole not wanting to marry my family thing?" "Planning a Cuban wedding and all that?" "Still have to go through with it." "Does your grandmother really have to help me write my vows?" "We'll talk about that in the morning." "All right." "Thanks for not telling the family, Alex." "Doctor says I'll be out in another day or so." "I'm just glad you're going to be okay." "'Cause it could've been a whole lot worse." "Yeah, I know." "I should've never gotten in with these guys." "It doesn't matter, Henry." "All of that is over now." "What do you mean?" "How?" "It's over." "Thanyou." "You never stop, do you?" "WellI have to keep myself occupied now, don't I?"
