THE ACERO DYNASTY
I wanted to apologize for what I did.
I had no choice.
I know Indio's forcing you to do these things.
He said he'd kill my parents if I disobeyed him.
We're with you. We won't abandon you.
I know your girlfriend's crossing migrants
through the Rio Grande Valley
and I can arrest her whenever I damn want.
We're short on people. Bring Carmencita.
A bomb?
All we can do is wait.
You won't have to wait long, though.
Thank you for coming, Mr. Romero.
THE ACERO DYNASTY
No need to thank me, Vicenta.
I'm just doing my job.
It's tough when immigrants are caught by ICE agents.
No offense.
None taken, sir.
However, not all ICE agents
are like the bastard who detained Aida.
Some of us take immigrants' rights very seriously.
Sure.
-You understand, right? -Yes.
Babe, we need to find Aida a place to stay until her trial.
Yeah.
I'm the only family she has.
She used to have my Aunt Cruz and cousin Paola,
but you know what happened to them.
Right.
The good thing is, I paid her bail already.
I doubt she'll try to escape
in the time leading up to her trial.
Yes, don't worry about that.
I spoke to Aida and told her what was going on.
She knows what she can and cannot do
with her ankle bracelet on.
How about them ankle bracelets, huh?
They're an abomination.
You have no idea how many petitions White Flag has sent
to international and especially American organizations
asking to make ankle bracelets optional.
You kind of lost me there,
but I'm dying to see Aida already.
I need to make sure she and Juan Pablo are okay.
Very well. Your wish is my command.
Thanks, girl!
Juan Pablo, you're so big!
Thank you so much.
Don't thank me. Thank Mr. White Flag.
Thank you so much!
No problem. I'm just doing my job.
Always a great feeling when there's a happy ending.
Faster, princesses! We have to get there today!
Come on, son.
Look, if you do your job right,
you won't have to wear a hood next time.
Don't get your hopes up, though.
Even those you think you can trust do you dirty sometimes
and I don't want you to go mouthing off.
LIft your hood.
Drink some water. We're almost there.
Don't hurt yourself, Carmen.
Let's try getting there in one piece.
I told you to stay home!
Pepita should be the one here!
He offered, but they didn't let him come because he's too big.
I wanted to come. Let go!
You're so stubborn.
Keep moving!
I want you to take this watch.
It emits a GPS signal, so we'll be able to trace you.
Activate it by pressing that button
and then place this in your ear.
Two key things.
Both devices should be off once you arrive.
Turn them on after Mario searches you.
This is nanotransmitter gel.
It emits electromagnetic waves.
We can use it to find Mario Casas wherever he is.
You need to apply this gel on Mario without him noticing.
Once it's on, we have two weeks until the effect wears off.
What is it? Am I boring you?
I thought my surprise would be anything but boring.
PENSÉ QUE MI SORPRESA ERA CUALQUIER COSA MENOS ABURRIDA.
Tell me... unless you'd rather I put a bullet in your head
and make this quick.
Relax, Mario.
You treacherous ----.
-Bastard. -Relax!
I'm not going to ------- relax.
You're going to die now... because you're a traitor.
He killed him!
Watch out for snakes, Carmen.
I'll ------- leave you down there this time.
Be careful with any snakes, rats, tarantulas...
but be more careful with the merchandise!
It's worth more than you and your families combined!
If you have to cut off an arm, do it!
If you have to sever your own leg, ------- do it!
By no means can you leave the merch behind!
To those of you who did this before,
that was a dress rehearsal.
Today's the premiere!
Alright, it's two at a time.
One goes in first and then I'm sending in the other.
If you want to pray, now's the time.
Open up, boys.
Look at you.
I should take a picture of you and send it to Venezuela!
Have you no sense of humor?
First, you didn't like my surprise.
Then you didn't laugh at my joke.
You've changed since befriending that cop.
I don't work for Marcelo Doriga.
Why won't you believe me, Mario?
He's alive?
When you drop the act.
All this crap you've been saying...
about telling me the so-called "truth."
You thought I'd be stupid enough to believe you?
Relax. Don't move.
You think I'm stupid?
That's not like you. Just look at you!
I pity you.
You're a sad sight.
Something's not right here, Bebote.
Maybe Mario suspects we're listening,
and that's why he's trying to confuse us?
We need to get Domingo out of there now!
No. Hold on.
Domingo needs to do his thing.
He needs to apply the gel
so we can track Mario and locate Indio's ranch.
This is an opportunity we can't let pass, Bebote.
What's the matter, ------?
There a ghost behind me?
Domingo doesn't believe in the supernatural.
Domingo only believes in what he can see and touch.
That's what really matters to Domingo.
Hey.
I got beat up for what I did to you.
Just look at me.
We're even now.
I wonder... how it's going for them in the tunnels.
I ask myself how long it takes...
Relax.
It's cool.
You good?
Yeah. Just be careful.
We're dying in here! Open the door!
We're dying! Open up!
Come on, Carmencita.
Don't give up, okay?
You can get out of this one too.
Besides, you need to stay sharp!
Your freedom depends on it!
----.
What's that noise?
It's a ------- earthquake!
Earthquake!
You bitch.
You know I'm not a murderer, you ------- liar.
Didn't you and your ex-husband kill Felipito's mom?
Felipe Murillo, the honorable politician ------ the maid,
knocked her up, and took her out once she became a burden.
-What are you...? -Don't touch me.
Who cares, Josefina?
It's still the truth, regardless of the source.
Care to tell us how you killed Felipito's mom?
Did you strangle her or shoot her?
Not like you care. She was just the maid.
Josefina, please!
Just let her.
Josefina's just jealous that I gave birth
to the real Quintanilla heir...
and I didn't have to kill anyone to become a mother.
I earned my title!
It's true, Debora.
I couldn't give my first husband, or Miguel,
or Erick a child.
That's been my greatest failure in life...
yet fate gave me a child.
The baby's fine.
He's 18 inches and weighs eight pounds.
Congratulations!
His mother is well, too.
Thank you.
If you want to see the baby, he's in the third-floor nursery.
Thank you, Doctor.
How about that?
We have a son now!
-What'd I tell you? -It's a miracle!
-Nah... -Thank God.
- SÍ, ES MÍO.
It wasn't a miracle, it was cheating with a purpose!
Practical infidelity.
Admit it. I even did that right!
You, however, turned out rather useless, huh?
My womb was barren...
and thanks to the fact that Felipe cheated on me,
I managed to get Felipito.
Ironically enough, the only man
I've ever conceived a child with was my rapist...
and I love my daughter with a passion,
but she's a constant reminder of that man
and what he did to me.
Josefina, I endured the same thing with the same man,
yet you don't see me complaining!
You're a terrible woman, Debora...
No, I'm just honest.
Unlike everyone else in this house.
Everyone's going around telling secrets behind people's backs,
yet they act so damned innocent.
Just admit it!
You killed Felipito's mother to keep him.
Enough!
Shut up, will you?
Son... you've been listening all along?
Felipe, son...
Don't call me that! I'm not your son!
Debora's right!
You're all a bunch of liars!
This woman's a damn murderer!
What'd you do to my mother?
Of course!
The Acero-Quintanillas are my family, Chava...
but Aida's my blood relative.
Of course I'm worried about her and my nephew Juan Pablo.
Your baby's all you should be worried about.
We must protect our son.
Besides, Vicenta said she'd take care of Aida.
She knows how to work the border.
I don't doubt that,
but I want to be there for her and help her with her son.
Listen, babe. The border's a delicate topic.
I don't want you leaving home.
Especially not in your state.
You know what happened to Jaibo for coming to see me.
You need to stop blaming yourself for that, Chava.
I know you're hurt because you two were close...
especially after all he did for you.
He wasn't a saint, though.
His enemies must've gotten him.
They would've killed him in or out of prison anyway.
Babe... we need to protect ourselves.
Now more than ever.
Tamaulipas is far more dangerous than I'd imagined.
It's good that the vitamins are helping,
but you need absolute rest.
-You know... -Yes, I know.
So I won't have another miscarriage.
Chava, we both know this baby...
Hey.
I know.
The past is in the past, though.
All I'm saying is,
I'm not letting anyone hurt you again.
Ever.
Have you been treated well?
Of course they have!
I made sure they were transferred to this center
because I know treatment is better here.
-Right, Aida? -Yes!
Right, but as her attorney,
I need to make sure her rights were respected.
You have no idea how many cases White Flag has taken on
where people were offered three square meals a day only to...
well, I'd rather not say.
Don't worry.
We were treated quite well here.
Good.
Daniel and Vicenta are like our guardian angels.
You are, too!
We're like the holy trinity!
Come with me, please.
What? Where?
Don't worry, Aida.
You're just signing your release form.
-It's fine. -I'll stay with Juan Pablo.
-I'm not getting arrested? -No!
We'll be right here.
Come, sweetie.
I didn't want to tell you in front of Aida,
but her case is slightly more complicated than we thought.
I thought you said it'd be resolved quickly.
It will, and I'll probably win the case,
but Aida was accused of harassment...
and that's considered a crime.
Harassment?
I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here.
-I didn't want you... -To find out?
Thanks, Debora. You did me a favor.
You've opened my eyes.
You're all a bunch of liars.
That woman's a damn murderer!
Hey!
Show some respect.
Josefina's your mother!
What's going on here?
What the hell is going on, Felipe?
I thought you said you weren't a kid anymore.
Why are you yelling? What is it?
How much longer must I live here?
You think you're one big, happy family, don't you?
You're so proud of the Acero-Quintanilla name...
yet it's your fault my father Miguel left home
and was killed!
You just said I wasn't a kid, right?
I saw how you broke down
when you couldn't save your mother, Manuel, or Aracely!
You two are lucky you don't carry this last name...
and you're having an Acero soon,
yet I already feel bad for him.
Felipito, calm down.
All we do is love and protect one another.
Do bad things happen to us? Yes, they do...
but we've never let anyone die alone.
My buddy Manuel was what Rooster is now to you.
He wasn't my biological father, but he was my dad all the same.
Rooster's here for you,
and I've yet to see a better mother than Josefina.
She sacrificed everything after my mother died.
She's been a mother to all of us
and she's dedicated her entire life to this family.
If she was so dedicated,
why'd she let her sister kill my mother?
Tell me the truth!
I'm not a kid anymore, Josefina!
Oh, you aren't? Good!
That means you're a man.
-Rooster, no. -No!
You mad? You pissed off?
-Go on, take it! -Rooster, please!
Take the gun! Take it!
Kill your mother! Go ahead!
Release all the rage you have inside!
Kill her once and for all!
-Rooster, enough. -Shut up!
Grab... the gun.
