CELIA I'm your grandmother, kid. Do the bastard math. EZ You see this? ANGEL She stole the fucking car from Grandma. PD's looking for a felon. EZ Of course she did. JIMENEZ Your partner? FELIPE Pedro, the thorn. JIMENEZ He make it out? FELIPE I don't know. Don't know if he wanted to get out. ANGEL If you don't trust me by now, Adelita, you never will. I need to know everything. ADELITA MIGUEL Prep the money. OFFICER I understand this is inconvenient, but we need to check that baby. BABY OFFICER Mr. Galindo, don't make this worse than it is. BISHOP Keep Angel and Coco close a couple more weeks. Prove to Alvarez there's no fucking mole at our table. EZ Bishop thinks Coco's the fucking mole. ANGEL That's why he's been separating us. EZ Where's Coco now? TAZA Alvarez say why the family was at the Calexico checkpoint? BISHOP All Devante told them was that Galindo got pulled into a backroom by border patrol. No one's telling him shit. TAZA Feds? HANK Feels like it. ANGEL Sorry, I was hoping I'd get a minute. I got to tell you something. BISHOP What's going on? ANGEL It's um. It's fucking tricky. Now, I don't want to-- You know, if I-- Telling you this makes me feel like a snitch. With all the shit going on, if I don't say something, I-I. BISHOP Fucking say it, Angel. ANGEL Last week, at the Reed ranch, we went after Dennis. We chased him onto Riz's land. About 50 yards in, we hit soft earth. Gilly dropped into a hole, that's why we lost Dennis. HANK What kind of hole? ANGEL We thought it was a fox den or a sinkhole at first, but we checked it out a few days later. It was an old tunnel. Abandoned. But it led to another tunnel, an active one. Working lights, fresh prints. BISHOP A tunnel to where? ANGEL Southern end led to a locked hatch. About a half mile into Mexico. The other end led to a storm cellar. At the Ariza house. Vicki's place. Bishop, I'm sorry we didn't- I'm sorry we didn't tell you about this right away. You know, we were just trying to figure out the right thing to do. The shit spinning with the rebels, and Galindo worrying about a mole, we knew this could throw a lot of heat at Riz. BISHOP You did the right thing. We'll figure it out. For now, we should just keep it in this room. ANGEL Okay. Okay. ANGEL Need you, Prospect. ADELITA Thank you, Ezekiel. MIGUEL FREDO EZ ANGEL ADELITA We're in America. We should speak English. Do you have other siblings? ANGEL No. After the two of us, my folks knew they reached perfection. EZ ADELITA How long since your mother passed? ANGEL Almost nine years. ADELITA Your father didn't remarry? EZ For him she's still very much there. ANGEL Literally. In a jar, it's, it's creepy as fuck. EZ He likes talking to her. ADELITA Pull over. On the left. EZ What's she doing on this side? ANGEL Let's find Coco and Gilly. Tell you what I know. COCO Shit, that all goes down today? ANGEL Yeah. GILLY How long the rebels been planning on that? RIZ Morning, brothers. TAZA Bikes are in the pit, Prospect. EZ ANGEL I got to bounce something else off you guys. HANK Templo. ANGEL CHUCKY She's very hungry. LETICIA Yeah, she is. EZ What're you doing here? LETICIA Coco told me to come by. Not sure why. Had Captain Handjob pick me up. CHUCKY I'm gonna make her some breakfast. Eggs sunnyside, toast, lots of butter, and magic huckleberry jam. LETICIA BISHOP Alvarez is on his way down. Hopefully we'll know more by the time he rolls in. CREEPER But Galindo's a dual citizen. They're not just gonna hold him for no reason. RIZ Why the fuck aren't his lawyers crawling up their ass? BISHOP Maybe they can't find the right ass. MEN COCO We still making the run? TAZA Yeah, business as usual. HANK Maybe we should keep some manpower here. In case we hear from Galindo. BISHOP Makes sense. Riz. Why don't you hang here? RIZ Yeah. Okay. CREEPER Hey, bro. RIZ LETICIA Mm-hmm. COCO My brothers. I want you to meet Leti. She's my kid. RIZ Riz. LETICIA Hi. RIZ Nice to meet you. MAN Hey, I'm Taza. Nice to meet you. BISHOP Chucky. The girl? CHUCKY Yes. That's the one. It's his daughter. She likes my jam. BISHOP I didn't know you had another kid. COCO Yeah, well, I fucked up things pretty bad with her. I'm trying to fix that. HANK Hey. Hang with your kid. COCO Yeah? HANK Yeah. Welcome. Hey, Prospect. You're with us. Reaper run. EZ Okay. FELIPE Buenos dias, my angel. ADELITA Was this her favorite jar? FELIPE Who the fuck are you? ADELITA I'm just a girl, Ignacio. A girl who also lives with ghosts. Sit. We have a lot in common. FELIPE Where'd you get this? ADELITA My father. It was in a box, hidden inside a heating vent. The same vent where I watched the cartel slaughter him, my mother, and my baby brother. FELIPE Jesus. You're Pedro's kid. ADELITA People know me as Adelita. FELIPE The rebel. How did you find me? ADELITA Your sons. They're helping our cause. FELIPE Jesus. They know you're here? ADELITA No. They don't know how we are connected. Angel thinks meeting me was a random act of fate. But we know better. FELIPE I don't know shit. Just tell me what the hell you want. ADELITA My father left Mexico in 1988. Fled to Venezuela. New name, new life. Met my mother. After a few years, I was born. On the day before my sixth birthday, Galindo's henchmen kicked down our doors. My mother hid me in an old heating vent. She didn't have time to hide my brother. They made my father watch as they hacked his wife and son to pieces. The man in charge, he gloated. Said my father was betrayed by a friend. A sacred trust. They chopped off his head. And laughed. FELIPE Oh, fuck. ADELITA A sacred trust of a partner. FELIPE You think I sold out your father. And you're here to kill me. Don't shoot me in the back. There's something you might want to see. ADELITA Sit down. What? FELIPE The whole picture. BOWEN Yep, come on in. JIMENEZ Hey. HIMLER Kj. BOWEN You look like you might need a few more sick days. JIMENEZ I'm fine. EZ delivers a bag today. I just want to let you know that I'm gonna- BOWEN It's too late. It's done. This AUSA, they want Reyes. JIMENEZ What the fuck are you talking about? BOWEN Himler's gonna be my point man for EZ Reyes from here on. You're too close. I'm sending you back to San Diego. JIMENEZ And what happens to EZ? BOWEN I had Himler put out a BOLO. We're gonna bring Reyes in. JIMENEZ With local cops? That shit'll expose him. The MC could- BOWEN This is not my worry. JIMENEZ Right. Just another dead Mexican. Probably get a bonus for that in this administration. BOWEN Get the fuck out. FELIPE We were animals. We sold our soul to the cartel. This was just another day on the job. Marisol was pregnant with Angel. I was done. I had-had to get her out. Your father was single and young. He wasn't ready to leave the money. I never knew what happened to him. ADELITA Then who else could've known where he was? FELIPE Maybe the one who took the picture. We were always together. Inseparable. Were just trying to find a way to fit in. Rodrigo took another path. He was the only one that knew where it was. He helped me create Felipe Reyes. He may have done the same for your father. ADELITA The sacred trust or a priest. FELIPE Do you know the bishop? ADELITA FELIPE That feels like a yes. ADELITA FELIPE If you're gonna kill me. Please don't do it here. I don't want my home to have the same bad memories as my shop. ADELITA May I borrow this? I'm sorry. FELIPE So am I. ADELITA Was my father really an animal? FELIPE We didn't start out that way. We just chose the wrong family. MEN HANK Brothers. How was the ride? HICKS It was great man. How are you? How's the family? HANK Good. How're you doing, brother? HICKS Great. HANK Everything good? HICKS Yeah. HANK As promised. It's clean. HICKS Good. All right, let's show them. MAN All right, we got something good for you. EZ Yeah? JIMENEZ Where are you? EZ I'm on the road. What's up? JIMENEZ Bowen is pulling our deal. EZ Fuck. JIMENEZ I'm not giving up, EZ. EZ It's probably done anyhow. Galindo was picked up at the border last night. Calexico East. Not sure who has him. JIMENEZ Jesus. Don't cave on me, cuz. You need to steer clear of the Mayans. They put out a BOLO. I'm not sure how much the cops know, but you don't want them talking about it in front of a patch. I'll check in when I know more. FREDO OTHER PRISONERS FREDO MIGUEL MAN MIGUEL FREDO BOTH MAN 1 MAN 2 OTHER PRISONERS MAN MIGUEL CHP OFFICER 1 Dispatch, this is California six, two, five, 78. I have eyes on a possible BOLO. COCO Man, I got to find a bigger place, mija, you know. It might take a minute, but but I promise I I'm gonna get you out of here. CELIA Ah, isn't this precious? COCO She needs a key, Mom. I give you money for all that shit. No wonder she's starving. I told you to buy some food. CELIA It's been kind of hard to do anything without a car. Cops called this morning, found my Chevy in a field. Near the border. A dead body in the fucking trunk. COCO Wow, anyone you know? CELIA Fuck you! LETICIA CELIA I know she was the one who took it. LETICIA Then why'd you report it stolen? CELIA To teach you a goddamn lesson. LETICIA So I don't grow up to be a stupid whore with dead bodies in my trunk, hmm? COCO Come on, come- Come on. I mean, hey enough. I'll g- I'll get you another car. CELIA Oh, no, no, no. That's not the only thing you're gonna get me. All I have to do is tell the cops it was you that took it. They'll see your record, nice little uniform. How do you think that's gonna go over? LETICIA He didn't take the car. COCO Hey. I'm doing my best to make this work, Celia. I-I I get it. You hate me, huh? I'm a shit son. But I need some help. You got to meet me half way. For her sake. CELIA Why should I? You don't give a shit about me. Never call. Never help me out.

Papi ain't gonna be around much longer, mija. Ain't in his nature. So if you want to keep this coming, you better get that tight little twat out into the street. Earn your shit. LETICIA CHP OFFICER 1 California six, two, five, seven, eight. I'm approaching the rendezvous point. We have open road. DISPATCH 10-4. Back up is waiting. EZ Shit. OFFICER ON SPEAKER Pull over. Pull over. HANK We "Yes, sir" our way out of this. Don't give a reason to search. GILLY Fuck. POLICE RADIO VOICE ANGEL Ez. Ez! GILLY What the fuck is he doing? MAN He just ran. ANGEL Ez. HANK Get the fuck back here, man. CHP OFFICER 1 Get off the bike. Now. Park it. EZ You're looking for EZ Reyes. That's me. CREEPER Motherfucker. OFFICER On the ground! Now! On the ground! Now! OFFICER 2 On the ground! EZ Ah. EMILY Anything from the lawyer? DEVANTE No. Legal hierarchy at the border now it's fucking chaos. Idiots dictating policy. Making shit up as they go along. Covering their ass so they don't take the hit when the emperor shits his new clothes. EMILY Think it's the Feds? Cisen? DEVANTE I did. At first. But now 18 hours, no word. Feds love to posture. They couldn't go this long without swinging their dicks. Forgive me. BOWEN Come on, shit. POTTER Idiot. Shit. I say if a man can't be trusted to remember five simple digits. RAMIREZ Let him in. POTTER Nine, one, six, one, zero. Major, September 16, 1810. Mexico's cry of independence. BOWEN I thought that was Cinco de Mayo. RAMIREZ POTTER Troglodita. BOWEN Any word on Reyes? HIMLER Chp just picked him up. POTTER Is no one informed? JIMENEZ It's agent Jimenez. I got some information you're gonna want to hear. BOWEN Shit. What the hell are you doing here? Huh? What the fuck are you doing? JIMENEZ Get the fuck off. POTTER Finally, a little fire. JIMENEZ Agent Kevin Jimenez. POTTER Lincoln Potter. BOWEN Agent Jimenez is off this case. And a heartbeat away from losing his badge. POTTER I think he's aware of that. JIMENEZ I am, sir. But I've invested over two years setting up the investigation into Galindo. To pull it from me now and burn EZ Reyes is a huge mistake. POTTER That's very passionate rhetoric, Agent Jimenez, but. JIMENEZ An hour ago I got intel from EZ. He told me Galindo was being detained at Calexico East. He's off the grid. RAMIREZ Not us. BOWEN It's it's probably bullshit. HIMLER It's not. Galindo hasn't pinged in over 26 hours. No calls, charges, internet. He is off the grid. POTTER Check with your agencies. See if anyone scooped him up. Get teams on homes and businesses. Let's find him. AGENTS JIMENEZ What about EZ Reyes? POTTER Until we know more, we drop the BOLO. Your deal is still in play. For now. JIMENEZ Okay. Thank you. POTTER Agent. You should get some rest. Maybe reacquaint yourself with the practice of hygiene. BORDER AGENT Galindo. Step up. Hand on the fence. Back it up. MIGUEL Where are you taking me? MIGUEL What is this place? BORDER AGENT Just go. Wait here. ADELITA Take off the restraints. ADELITA You know who I am? MIGUEL I know. Where's my son? ADELITA Here. Safe. Your family also. Safe. MIGUEL If this was just about "Matar al diablo," I assume I'd already be dead. ADELITA I'm not here to kill you. MIGUEL No. But you're here to plant drugs on me, and torture my family. ADELITA The Galindo Cartel slaughtered my mother, my father and my brother. MIGUEL Hmm. Is that what this is? Revenge? ADELITA Vengeance is just the match. You know that. Fire is much more complicated. I know you want me dead. MIGUEL ADELITA You think I'm. MIGUEL What do you want? ADELITA Cooperation. MIGUEL You really think I would cooperate with terrorists? ADELITA No more than I'd cooperate with psychopaths and nun killers. Please sit. PABLO ADELITA Your poppies in the mountains of Guerrero. Your refinery in Ixtapa. Your distribution hubs in Sonora. MIGUEL Why are you showing me all of this? ADELITA Florentino. PABLO Florentino. ADELITA Cossette. PABLO Cossette. ADELITA Marius y Fermina. PABLO Marius y Fermina. ADELITA It's in real time. Use the phone. Confirm it if you'd like. MIGUEL Hmm. Burning a few fields, blowing up some trucks. You think that matters? Impacts my business? ADELITA No. MIGUEL No. ADELITA Each of these is also a call away. And if they go, it will matter. It'll cripple you. Enough to allow Lobo Sonora and fringe players to move in, usurp your business. All that happens while you are in the U.S. Courts, fighting a drug trafficking charge. MIGUEL You took my son to set me up for all this? ADELITA Yes. MIGUEL To force my hand. ADELITA No. To show what your hands can do together. If the Galindo Cartel falls, another will take its place. The violence continues, corruption still thrives. Our government, every branch, every level, is infected. Social services, education, healthcare. The money never ends up helping the people who need it. Lopez Obrador won't change anything. We know we can't defeat evil. All we can do is point it in the right direction. Let evil feed our children, care for our sick. Let the devil secure our future. MIGUEL And I'm that devil. ADELITA Los Olvidados is everywhere. We are 2,000 strong and growing every day. We become your eyes, your ears, your weapons. You continue to distance yourself from the blood. In return, you give us a piece of the profit. Help us put it in the hands of the people who need it. The system is broken. Together, we create a new one. MIGUEL Partners? Hmm. The things we've done. Our hatred runs deep. How do we ever trust, Adelita? ADELITA We begin by telling the truth. My name is Luisa Espina. And until we earn that trust, we'll need a third party. Someone with a vested interest in keeping us honest. I'll let you give it some thought. GILLY Before we knew it, the prospect circles back, said something to the cops, was in the wind. HANK It was a solitary decision. TAZA He had no bedroll, knew it was just some harassment stop. What were they gonna get him on? Maybe reckless driving, speeding. He pulls the heat away from this. BISHOP Little brother's got some balls. RIZ Little brother's here. Just walked in. BISHOP Send him back. RIZ All right. Prospect! BISHOP Shit. What happened? EZ I let them catch me when I was clear of the club. Weren't gonna do the paperwork for a stack of misdemeanors. TAZA Took their pound of flesh. BISHOP You're a smart kid, EZ. Putting yourself on the line for the club, that's commendable. But it was impulsive and fucking rogue. The kind of shit that will get you killed, and more importantly get one of us killed. EZ Sorry. BISHOP If it happens again, you're done. And what comes with that will make the CHP beatdown feel like a day at the spa. Get out of here. How much more time does he have left? ANGEL About eight months. BISHOP I got a feeling it's gonna be a very long eight months. MAYANS RIZ Hey, guys. I'm gonna head over to Vicki's. CHUCKY Easy peasy! EZ Oh, my God! CHUCKY She just called me 20 minutes ago. EZ What happened? LETICIA Celia she almost killed me. EZ Your mom. COCO Clean her up. EZ Should we go with? GILLY Ain't our business. MIGUEL TAPIA You're free to go. MIGUEL Gracias, Tapia. ADELITA We'll be in touch. NESTOR He's home. EMILY Where? What happened? He's here. He's really here. MIGUEL He's here. He's home. EMILY My baby. RIZ Flashlight. What the hell? BISHOP Need a hand there, brother? COCO CELIA Jesus Christ. What the hell is wrong--? You're fucking crazy. You're fucking crazy. Cops are gonna know you took my car, add assault to that. I'm gonna fucking bury you. I'm gonna fucking bury you! COCO I believe you would, Mom. CELIA Coco, I'm gonna fucking bury. Ah! EZ Pop? You up? Pop? Pop. EMILY MIGUEL At any moment, she. EMILY Jesus. DITA It's probably just another brownout. MIGUEL Nestor. NESTOR Paco's on it. MAN BABY CRISTOBAL EMILY Shh. MIGUEL EMILY Miguel. MIGUEL Nestor? EMILY Dita? Devante? Miguel? POLICE RADIO OFFICER Hold it right there. POTTER Good evening, Mrs. Galindo. Or is it Mr. Thomas? Hmm? BABY CRISTOBAL POTTER Oh. BABY CRISTOBAL
