YEAR 2007
What are you doing?
I was looking for...
Dad hates it when people go through his stuff.
That's nonsense, honey. I wasn't doing that.
Your dad called. He wants me to get some documents for him.
Shouldn't you be at school?
My first-period teacher didn't show up,
so I came to get some assignments I left here.
Just like your dad.
Yeah.
You're running late.
-See you later. -Okay.
BANK STATEMENT
I need to see you.
I have important information. It needs to be today.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
Things aren't well between us, but it's not all my fault.
I can't forget you were with that guy.
I already told you I didn't have sex with him.
It was just a fling. And I told you about it.
-Jennifer, there's no point... -I said I was sorry.
Why don't you accept your blame in this?
No, I'm not to blame here.
-Really? -Not for that.
You don't like hearing the truth?
I wouldn't have accepted his invitation
if I hadn't felt so abandoned for so many years.
You left us for weeks.
I had to go to the Mexico office.
-You could've hired someone. -Not that easy.
But you didn't.
It's not easy for me to beg you to be with me.
If it wasn't for our son
and because I know we can work it out,
I would've left years ago.
What happened to us, Max?
When did you lose yourself?
You and I loved each other.
Or have you forgotten?
We expected our son with such illusion,
but suddenly things went south,
I don't know why or how, but if you tell me...
-Jennifer. -Just tell me.
-It isn't... -No. Look at me.
Tell me what I can do.
Jennifer, please, understand.
Our love is over.
Get that into your head.
I'm sorry.
Are you in love with another woman?
What if I go to his house and check up on him?
No, darling. Mind your own business.
You have a lot of stuff to pack.
Wait.
I'd forgotten.
I got you a present.
What is it?
Here you are. Let's see.
Mom, it's so beautiful.
I wanted to cut out that slacker Max,
but he got in the middle of the picture.
He's smart.
Mom, don't say that. Deep down, you love him.
Yeah, but I'd love him more if he were dead.
What's wrong?
Tell me.
Max.
Jennifer, I'm fed up with these arguments.
I need to know.
Don't leave me like this. Tell me.
-It's my fault. -What?
You're right, it's my fault.
But I have to be honest with myself.
I can't stay with you.
I have an appointment. I have to go.
He's not picking up. He must be busy.
Busy? With whom?
Don't start, Mom.
Thinking the worst saves me time.
But Max is a good man. He's not like other men...
No, he isn't like other men,
who cheat on their wives in the same city.
I mean, they even cheat on their wives
with someone who lives down the street.
No, that man is a saint. Poor him.
You've been watching too many soap operas.
I'm sorry, but you need to wise up.
When you're over there, far from me,
who's going to open up your eyes?
Hello?
Hi, honey.
Hi, honey. I'm glad you called.
I'm sorry, I was at a meeting.
I'm sorry, I didn't know.
I wanted to let you know that the bus leaves at seven.
We'll get there the day after tomorrow at six.
-Max? -Yeah, honey. I'm here.
I'm happy that's just hours away.
Are you picking us up?
Of course. I'll be there.
I love you so much.
And I love you, Eliza.
You have no idea how much.
Ma'am, I can't do that.
The governor gave me strict orders...
The governor can't keep me locked up in here.
Am I his prisoner now?
No, but he knows what he's doing, ma'am.
He's keeping you here to protect you.
Listen, he isn't who you think he is.
You have to trust me.
Where are you going, man?
I'm buying some migraine medicine for the lady.
The boss said nobody leaves without his clearance.
I asked for his permission.
She's not feeling well. I'll be back soon.
Tell the others not to bother her, please.
-Okay, man. -Thanks.
One interview. Mrs. Sofia's coming.
-First Lady. -First Lady.
You can get out.
There.
We made it. Nobody saw us, right?
No, ma'am, but the governor will kill me.
Nobody will kill you. Let's go.
I want to thank the police force
for their quick response to these regrettable events
that made us all angry.
I'll say something
I said a million times during the campaign.
Crime won't go unpunished.
The children in our state are our biggest treasure,
our future, and we must protect them
with our lives, if necessary.
I guarantee you
I'll fight until the end.
I'll catch the people responsible
You know that the network is preparing a new route.
But we have the intel.
You're out, I'm sorry.
You're going to lose Sofia Villavicencio as well.
Yesterday you said you didn't trust her, so...
I don't, but she's not going to trust an agent overnight.
Besides, Irene does trust her.
She thinks we should give her a chance.
Come in.
I have to get back quickly. I want you to look at this.
Where did you get this?
Ernesto kept them in a secret safe.
I wanted you to see them.
Sit down, please. Can I scan them?
Sure.
They're more important than I thought, right?
They could kill us both
if they knew you gave them to me.
Patrick, we can't expose Irene like this anymore.
I promise we'll keep getting Irene's intel from the U.S.
Let me be the person close to Sofia Villavicencio, please.
You're in no position to negotiate.
I'm in no position to keep putting Irene in danger!
As soon as I know who did this, I'll kill them.
Of course you will, Mr. Juan.
But there's something more important.
What shall I tell my clients, who're waiting for the goods?
That I don't have it?
Do you realize the big trouble you've caused
thanks to your incompetence?
I always deliver, you know that.
I'll get you more goods.
You'll deliver everything in time.
Are we letting the snitch get away with it?
I'm looking into who it was.
Don't play stupid. You know who it was.
I swear, I don't know.
Vicentito, son, please.
What if they took advantage of Mr. Juan?
This guy wants to get us out of the business.
You were on your way to the ranch.
But when this whole mess started, you didn't show up.
What a coincidence. You knew it was going to happen.
My driver got me off the car at gunpoint.
I don't care if you don't talk. I'll find out the truth, anyway.
You'll pay for your betrayal, you bastard.
Diablo, go get the car. We'll put a guy in the trunk.
Vicentito, hold on.
Are you sure he's the one who did it?
Maybe we're wrong,
and the one who did it is still out there.
Dad, you can't go soft on a snitch.
It was Ernesto Martinez's wife.
She's the one who called the press.
-Mr. Matos. -Thanks, Governor.
Governor, what's your comment on the rumors
about the San Pedro ranch, where it all went down?
They say it belongs to your wife.
Dear journalists, please, stop the speculation.
Don't politicize this.
It's obvious that the opposition can't admit the defeat.
This is all smears.
Let me be clear.
These were ordinary criminals.
Those are everywhere, unfortunately.
-Any other question? -Governor...
Do you mind if I make a safety copy?
Why do you think that's necessary?
Is this enough to put them to jail?
Yes, this proves how the network works.
Your husband and Juan Estevez created a shell company.
The money the dealers get for taking the girls abroad
is being passed off as this company's earnings.
These are all the deposits.
The company is abroad, right?
Yeah, in a tax haven.
They use it to divert public funds, too.
It's a construction company.
It's been getting government contracts
ever since your husband was the attorney general.
How is this possible?
How did I not see it? I'm such an idiot.
Sofia, don't blame yourself.
Politicians are masters of deceit.
It's important that you get these documents back.
It's important.
I don't want them to suspect of you.
What's next? What are you doing with this information?
I can give it to Joel...
No. I don't want that guy involved.
-I don't trust him. -He's a cop...
I don't want cops in this,
not from Mexico or anywhere else.
They only care about the red tape or getting a medal,
that is if they're not already corrupt.
-I know you don't trust... -That's the condition.
I'm giving you this evidence on that condition.
No cops.
How was it? Perfect, right?
I have them eating out of my hand.
I don't think so. People know the ranch is Sofia's.
We can't keep them all quiet.
Don't sweat it. They'll get over it tomorrow.
By the way, tomorrow's the Chivas-America match, right?
This isn't a joke, Ernesto.
I don't know how this got out,
but the obvious explanation is Sofia.
Are you insisting on that?
Just find out where the leak came from
instead of making up gossip.
I'm paying you to watch my back, not to spread gossip.
Are we clear?
We're clear.
From now on, your back is secure.
What are you going to do?
Anything to keep you on your position.
That's what you're paying me for, right?
Excuse me, boss.
Ma'am.
After they caught him trafficking marihuana.
Child trafficking, to be more specific.
This gem is his son, believe it or not.
Vicentito.
A real gem.
Along with Juan Estevez,
they financed the governor's campaign.
-Ernesto. -What happened?
Did you fix things with Don Chente?
I'm with them right now.
They'll kill me if you don't come here.
I have to go, or Ernesto will find me with the documents.
Thanks. I'll send you a copy of my article when I get to L.A.
I won't publish anything without your approval.
-You're leaving? -Yeah.
Joel thinks that me staying in Mexico is too dangerous.
Normally I wouldn't do it,
but I have to think about my child too now.
-I didn't know you had a child. -I don't but...
I'm pregnant.
Almost four months.
Sofia, are you sure you want to go ahead with this?
Once this is published, there's no turning back.
There's no turning back
ever since I found out what Ernesto does.
I'm sorry, but I don't want him to raise my children.
Soon you'll see you do anything for your children.
You're a brave woman, Sofia.
Irene. Irene!
Irene.
