He's here.
Tell him where we are.
That's the guy.
-They're gonna kill him? -I'll be back soon, son.
Stay here and put the window up.
-Don't take long. -I won't.
Damn! The boy too?
Dad can't be gone. He has to come back.
He can't be dead.
Your father's not coming back. He can't.
You can't be dead.
If I'm not out of there quick, call the police.
-Stay here. -What?
Hey, kid. What's your name?
Luis.
Luis, stay in the car. Stay put.
Hey. Did you bring the money?
-Yeah. -Come in?
Are you armed?
No.
-You sure? -Yes.
He's here.
Cheers.
How are you?
You're finally paying us?
Yeah.
Just give me a few days and I'll bring you the rest.
Just a few days.
You owe a lot more than this, ------------!
You suck at paying your debts.
Know what you'll excel at, though?
Being an example to those who owe us.
Wait, wait.
I have a son.
Don't move.
Easy!
Take it easy.
Over there!
Juana, tell them!
Hello?
Put Chabela on the phone.
That's great! That looks a lot better.
I'm glad you're here. We need to talk.
What's up? She's really good.
-My aunt called. -Is Amanda okay?
She's fine.
Corona knows you're in Mexico City.
He made a scene at the mayor's house.
There's no one by that name here.
Don't try to fool me.
I know Chabela's hiding there.
Tell her Corona's looking for her and wants to talk to her.
Look, -------, there's no one here by that name.
Damn you, Chabela!
You know Corona's an animal.
He thought you and the mayor were together,
so he showed up at the house
to accuse him of helping you and sleeping with you.
Unbelievable.
So he knows I'm here with the mayor's brother?
No, I don't know that he knows that.
You sure?
No, but if he did, he wouldn't have gone after the mayor.
Wait.
Right now we need to know
if Amanda's going to tell him the truth and when.
The thing is...
we don't know what he's told her.
Just to get her to talk.
Listen up, with everything that's happening,
it'll be hard for you to bring Amanda here on your own.
You're gonna have to wait till things calm down.
I know.
Not a single day goes by
when I don't regret making that choice.
How could I leave her behind with Corona around?
I keep wondering if she's eating well,
if she's getting any sleep, how he's treating her,
what's going through her mind.
Can you imagine what she's going through?
Aren't you even gonna thank us?
Thank you!
I hope you buy your son something with that money.
Yes, sir.
I didn't kill him, didn't I?
-Chucho! -What?
Get the money. Let's go.
Give me the crutches.
I'm fine. Thanks.
Doctors can be overdramatic.
I just need to get back to work.
No, you should follow the doctors' orders and Mom's.
I need you to concentrate on getting better.
I'm going to need you for what I'm doing next.
What you're doing next?
What is it?
I've decided to step down as mayor of Alamos.
I'm going to run for governor.
If I kill the mayor, everyone will come after me.
Especially your dad.
Everyone knows Eliseo's a thorn in the cartel's side.
ES UNA PIEDRA EN EL ZAPATO PARA EL CÁRTEL.
You'd be a hero.
It's not that easy.
That's why your dad won't take you seriously.
You know nothing of the biz.
What am I supposed to know?
Without the mayor, we lose Augusto.
And without Augusto,
we can't send the merch across the border.
Get it?
You almost destroyed a perfect money-making machine.
What is it?
I thought you'd be happy.
We'd talked about me running for governor a while ago.
That was supposed to happen eventually, not now.
Now's not the best time,
especially not when the Gaona cartel is threatening you.
They could kill you.
Calm down, Mom. It's fine.
Their threats are the reason I want to run.
For some time now, Augusto's been telling me
that I don't have enough power as mayor to stop them.
Maybe I will as governor.
I think it's a mistake.
You'd have to give up your position as mayor,
find a suitable candidate, and support him.
You'll be unprotected.
Eliseo, please listen to him.
The plan was for you to end your term.
-Yes. -Then you were to rest.
Only then were you supposed to run for governor.
Augusto, if I don't do something against the Gaona cartel,
then I'll feel like their accomplice.
I've made my decision.
I'm resigning as mayor of Alamos
and running for governor.
You're not getting me.
I only care about getting revenge on Diego.
I want him to shed tears of blood.
I want him to have his brother's death
on his conscience.
Try to understand.
Don't you see the current state of things?
Mexico's a jungle.
You think drug trafficking can exist without a government.
Narcos can't exist without dirty politicians.
Frogs eat flies.
And big lizards eat frogs.
If one of them is missing, it ----- up the circle of life.
Get it?
Don't push things.
Leave the mayor right where we need him for the business.
Besides, this has nothing to do with your vengeance.
Joselito, don't treat me...
Call me Jose, not Joselito.
So you don't like it when I call you Joselito,
but you used to love it when I called you kiss-ass?
I'm going to be your wife,
but only if you kill Eliseo.
I won't marry a coward... or an errand boy.
You're no errand boy.
Can you believe this?
Corona's trying to take custody of the kids
after everything he's done.
It's unbelievable.
And now the narcos are after me
because they think I'm Diego's woman.
You need to be more independent.
Learn the routine, make your own money, and that's it.
Easier said than done.
Things are easy here. You just...
Excuse me.
I'm here for your clothes.
Thanks, Lourdes. It's in the basket.
Lourdes, we couldn't finish talking
because we got interrupted.
-Are you okay? -Yeah.
You sure?
She's not okay. You hear me?
Look...
Ramona doesn't let the waitresses talk to us.
Why not?
I don't know.
Shady? How so?
Shady as in...
prostitution, human trafficking.
I'm not sure.
I don't know. It's none of our business.
None of our business?
They're forcing girls into prostitution.
Hey, they're here because they want to be.
Everyone here has made tough choices in order to survive.
Just mind your own business and please stay out of trouble.
Please.
I feel terrible I've been unable to find your daughter.
Jeronimo.
Sir?
Please go with them. Help them out.
-Please follow him. -It's through here.
Let's go.
What are you two doing here?
I need you to watch Amanda.
Are you insane? I'm at work!
I want to work too, Dad.
I don't want you calling me useless.
I'm going to a bar to get work and Amanda can't go.
Take care of her. See you, sweetie.
I became a politician to make a difference.
I don't care about the money and you know that.
I only want to help the country.
You should be proud.
I am, son. I am.
But a mother only cares about her child's well-being.
Eliseo, you're what's most important to me.
What's a mother without her child?
I'm not an only child, Mom.
I know, but Diego doesn't need me
and Augusto could find another woman.
Son, you've always been my rock,
the source of my strength.
You've been there for me
in good times and bad times.
If anything happened to you... I'd die.
Don't say that.
I'll always be with you.
Hey, where are you going in such a rush?
Wait.
Why do you want the mayor dead so badly?
Simple.
He's Diego's brother.
Besides, I want to know if you're willing to kill for me.
Diego never was.
Alright.
You know I'd do anything for you.
You see? See, Joselito?
That's why I'm with you
because of who you are, because I can trust you.
But if you don't kill Eliseo, how can I trust you?
Alright. I'll kill Eliseo.
But we'll keep this between us. No one can know.
Especially not Gavino. He'd kill me.
We're in the south of Mexico City
where a man almost died at the hands of drug traffickers.
Let's interview the men who saved his life.
Sir, please.
Yeah, we saved a guy's life.
You risked your life for someone you don't know?
Yes... yes...
It's something we should all do.
We Mexicans need to support each other,
not hate and discriminate against each other
over our skin color or ethnicity.
My buddy Emiliano also helped, though.
Emiliano! Please.
This is Emiliano. He did the saving.
Tell Mexico the name of this hero.
Emiliano Guevara.
No...
That's his name.
Excuse me.
Hello.
What the hell are you doing on camera?
Get out of there right now before anyone else sees you.
You're putting Eliseo and everyone else in danger.
