03x19 - Break-In at Santa Paula

[bunniefuu]

I want you to go down
there and get him out.

You're talking about
someth’n that's illegal.

The law shouldn't have put him
in there in the first place!

Abort, Dom! Get out!

You were always real good at looking out
for number . Looks like you still are.

Who would go to such lengths to
save this simpering little gringo?

I'm being watched, so let's make it fast.

Pardon me. I'm looking for a
man named Stringfellow Hawke.

Why, yes ma'am, he's right over there.

Eleanor.

Hello, Hawke.

It's been a long time, years.

It shouldn't be hard for
you to remember that day.

Your husband's funeral.

Look Hawke, I know we've never
liked each other very much.

Wasn't a matter of "like," Eleanor.

Mike could’ve really been
somebody if he hadn't married you.

Our son, Terry, is in a
Central American prison camp.

You're my last hope, Hawke.

I know you owe me
nothing less than nothing,

but Mike was your best friend,

and his son, Terry,
needs your help desperately.

Maybe you'd better tell
us how this happened.

And so this sweet girl, this pretty poison,

very cleverly got Terry
framed and convicted

on a “transportation of dr*gs” charge.

He's currently serving a -year
prison sentence in Santa Paula.

Why would this woman want to frame your son?

I have a successful import business.

After Terry was in prison,
the girl phoned me.

She said that if her friends
could use my business

to import dr*gs into the country,

they would release, to
the Santa Paula Government,

evidence that would clear Terry.

What kind of evidence?

They didn't tell me. I wouldn't
have believed them if they had.

I don't intend to do what they want.

Well, what exactly is your intention?

Hawke, I've used every option
available to me, including bribery.

Terry has a heart condition.

He's not equipped physically or emotionally

to survive in that prison camp.

And he's been there
months already. I was there.

It was indescribable.

What do you really want me to do?

I want you to go down there and get him out.

What? Oh lady, you gotta be kidding.

I'll pay you anything you want!

Listen, you're talking about
something that's illegal.

The law shouldn't have put him
in there in the first place!

You know, I'd really like to help you, but…

Hawke, you haven't seen
Terry in a long time,

not since he was little.

I think you'd like him.

He has a lot of his Father in him.

Look, String, you think we can discuss this

for a few minutes in private?

I'll wait outside.

Thank you.

For crying out loud! You're really
not going to do this, are you?

This young man's Father, her husband,

he and his family moved in next
door to me when I was years old.

We went to elementary school
together, high school.

Went off to college
together. He was my partner.

Until she split you up.

But what she's asking for,
you'll land in the next cell.

Dom, I gotta do something.
At least go look around.

This is the nuttiest thing
I ever heard of in my life!

But you're crazy if you think
you're gonna go down there alone.

Right.

Well, we're about minutes
away from that prison compound.

Let's land this bird and
do a quick ground recon.

Those Policias see us
up here getting too nosy,

they're liable to run a tracer on us.

You got it.

Didn't I tell you to keep him quiet?

He can't help himself.

His coughing’s making me angry.

I'll take him to the end of the yard.

Hey, he's gonna get us all sick,
man. I think he's better dead.

Could you get him away from me?

Sanders is crazy.

He doesn't like you.

Look, I just want him
kept away from me… us.

Are you giving me orders?

No, I just…

months, and you haven't
learned the rules here.

st rule, you never argue with Mendez.

nd rule, Mendez holds the power.

I want to speak to the Commandant.

The Commandant hides in his
office and waits for his pension.

Mendez is in charge here.

Mendez is the power, and
now Mendez is very angry

because you have not accepted that.

I'm sorry.

"Sorry" is that all you have to offer?

Is that all you have?

I can get more.

Look, American dollars, cigarettes.

You worry me. I don't trust you.

You want to see the Commandant…

I won’t. I promise.

Captain Mendez, please, just leave us alone.

…or cause me any trouble,
even just a little bit.

I won't cause you any trouble.

I'll be watching you.

How do you feel?

Like I was rode hard and put up wet.

You, Ernesto! Come here!

Hawke, you will be able
to get him out, won't you?

I already told you,
Eleanor. We'll get him out.

He's my son. I want to go with you.

It's too risky.

I've got a picture of Terry here,

and ID to get in the place.

We shouldn't risk any
more people than we need.

Well, don't forget Terry's care package.

So, you ready to go get some rest?

I won't sleep.

Would you walk with me,
just for a few minutes?

Why not?

You know, I was more than
just a little disappointed

in the way that you took off out of
town right after Michael's funeral.

I had to get away.

Away from the memories.
Away from you, Hawke.

You used to pin me with that
accusing stare of yours.

So I went to San Francisco, bought
into a small import-export business,

and eventually ended up running the place.

Never remarried?

Marriage was not one of my priorities.

I had to start a new life,
build up a business.

Raise a son?

That's not fair.

You were always real good at looking out
for number one. Looks like you still are.

Don't you know there's only
one thing on this earth

that would make me come
crawling back to you?

And that's Terry.

I remember when you thought she
was public enemy number one.

Part of me still does.

But when I see her again, I kind of
think I was a little hard on her.

Bartender.

Adelante.

You sent for me?

Our new prisoner, Haines…

What about him?

He has a visitor.

Uncle?

Requests for visitations have to
be made in advance, in writing.

He has come a long way.

Ernesto.

Haines, your Uncle wants to see you.

My Uncle?

What's the matter? You don't
recognize me without my beard?

Come on, give your old Uncle Tim a big hug.

Play along with this. Your Mother sent me.

Uncle Tim, what a surprise.

You think we could have a private
minute here, just the of us?

Thanks.

Who are you?

Stringfellow Hawke.

I'm a friend of your
Father's, and your Mother's.

My Father?

I'll tell you about that later.

Now, listen close. We're
gonna break you out of here.

You're putting me on.

No. How many times a day
are you in this yard?

times, once after each meal.

What times exactly?

: , : and : .

All right, tomorrow, and listen careful,

tomorrow, : , I'm gonna land
a helicopter right over there.

Helicopter? You're serious?

I'm not here 'cause I like the ambiance.

Now, listen to me careful.

I'll be on the ground
seconds, : exactly.

Here he comes.

You look good, boy.

Thanks.

I'll tell your Mother.

Thanks for coming.

So, Uncle Tim, what news you
gonna take out of Santa Paula?

News?

About your nephew.

You heard, that he's well.

Good. If that's what you'll
say, then he might stay well.

Hey, gordo. Maybe you want your r*fle

while you help the American out, huh?

Come here, gordo!

Cate will bring the other helicopter in

about a half-hour before we start.

That's where you and Caitlin will stand by

while we go in and get Terry.

I want to go with you. I mean,
what if something goes wrong?

What if he's hurt?

We can handle anything like that.

I need Dom to operate the in-flight
systems and be a backup pilot,

or else he wouldn't even go in.

I can't just sit out there in
the boondocks doing nothing.

Well, String's right, ma'am.
You see, if you come along,

we're just gonna have to
worry about looking after you

instead of doing our real job,

rescuing your son.

What you say makes sense, but
I just hate feeling useless.

You've got your work cut out for you

once we get Terry back across the border.

Sure, by tomorrow afternoon,
we'll all be home, safe and sound.

To tomorrow afternoon.

Now Gentry, you're coming with me.

The second I tell you,
take a grab on my arm,

and if there's any run left in you…

There's enough run to get me outta here.

How we doing on time, Dom?

Right on the money.

We talked it over,
and they all agree with me.

He's gonna make us all get
sick, and we're all gonna die!

Look, here's some cigarettes, some candy.

Here's some money. Just
leave us alone, okay?

Hey, we took a vote. We k*ll
him before he kills us.

You can't k*ll a man for no reason.

Hey, we got reason. We don't like him.

And we don't like you.

Maybe we should k*ll both of you, huh?

What are you looking at, punk?

You think Mendez cares? He doesn't care.

He doesn't like you, either.

I got a good idea. You k*ll
him in bed tonight. Choke him.

So I don't have to touch him.

Okay, okay, I'll do it.
Just leave us alone, okay?

Come on, man. You ain't
got the stomach for it.

Morales, you got strong hands.
Get him out of his misery.

No, you can't do this.

Gentry, come on. That's Hawke.

Where the hell is he?

He can't get to us, Dom.
I'm gonna go after him.

No, String!

You've got to try.

Abort, Dom! Get out!

Get out! I'm not gonna make it! Abort!

Well, Uncle Tim, welcome back home.

This time you'll be staying longer.

So,

you still think you're Haines' Uncle.

I think not.

I don't like to talk to
myself. Make me feel lonely.

Maybe if you found some manners,
you might have more friends.

Your aircraft look very expensive.

Very modern.

That tells me Haines is well
connected, as you Americans say.

Now, that worries me.

It should.

It's so unfair.

Just a poor, small Civil
Servant, doing my job.

I don't want to become the
victim of… what? Politics?

Who would go to such lengths to
save this simpering little gringo?

People in high places, huh?

Well, I'm gonna keep you here for a while.

Till your trial.

Maybe I can persuade you
to be more talkative.

You are so attached to each
other, you should be together.

You don't look so good.

I got noth’n to say to you, kid.

Listen, I'm sorry it all went sour.

Sorry, hell. You hung me out to dry.

Okay, I got you guys
checked outta your rooms,

and I covered your tracks.

Dom, you think maybe we should
contact the Firm for some help?

Are you kidding? That's too risky, Cate.

What we're doing here is absolutely illegal.

I mean, we're way out on a long limb here.

Then what, what are we going to do?

We're gonna get ourselves out, and fast.

You know, it's not gonna take much checking

to know that those Anglos with
the helicopter were involved

with that rescue attempt.

Oh, God.

Terry was holding the wolves
at bay before this happened.

Can you imagine what he's going through now?

Don't you mean what they're going through?

Oh Cate, you know I mean Hawke, too.

I've gotta get into that prison.

Yeah, but how?

They're not gonna want to see another one
of Terry's Uncles or Hawke's friends.

I know. I know.

I can't go in there to see them specifically.

Once I got in, I'd have to make
it appear like it was incidental.

You know what I mean?

You mean we?

We? Come on, Cate.

It's hard enough for a man
to get in there, but a woman?

And you say you are from where?

Lucia de la Santini, north di Napoli.

Italy?

Si. Yes.

So far from home?

Well, the whole world is our home,

and everybody in the
whole world is our family.

And you are here to do what, exactly?

We have come to plant the seeds
of love with our fratelli.

There are more stones
than seeds in this place.

Which means they must need us very much.

Father, I don't mind your visiting us,

but I can't send a young woman
like this into a prison yard.

Begging your pardon, sir,

but I'm no young woman. I'm a nun.

I've naught to fear from the likes
of them that are incarcerated here.

I thought you were both from Italy.

- Si.
- So we are. Yes, indeed.

Well, you see, I came to Naples years ago,

for, you see, Ireland is the
only country in the world

that produces more nuns
and Priests than it needs.

Catholic clergy are Ireland's
largest export, don't you know?

We're all over the world.

But this is a prison, Sister.

Some of these men have not
seen a woman in years.

But don't you know, I was the
only girl raised among brothers.

I can take care of meself.

But if you're worried,
I'm sure this fine gentleman

would escort me and preserve me from harm.

Wouldn't you, now?

See to it, Mendez, eh?

Yes, Commandant.

I would like to have a talk
with you first, privately.

Scusi, eh? Scusi.

Concerning that incident yesterday…

Yes, I'm writing a report.

I was thinking.

You were looking for an excuse to
go to the capital for a few days.

Yes.

Yes.

I could report the incident
personally, could I not?

Why not?

Yes, why not?

Hand me the candy bar, kid.

Well, he speaks.

Give me the chocolate.

I know you're not too thrilled with me,

but giving the candy
away was a little petty.

Look, I can't change
what happened yesterday.

You sure as hell could have prevented it.

Look, they were about to k*ll Gentry.

I had to try to get him outta here.

You shouldn't have changed
signals without tell’n us.

Listen, there are some
real crazies in there,

and they're afraid that
Gentry's gonna infect them.

They've threatened to k*ll him and me.

They just threatened you. You caved in.

Okay, so I'm not a hero.

You know kid, I never
asked you to be a hero,

but I did expect you to
live up to your agreement.

Maybe you expected too much.

Well, let's put it this way.

You're not what I expected
of your Father's son.

That's the second time
you've mentioned my Father.

Yeah, it'll be the last.

Meaning what?

I'm being watched, so let's make it fast.

st, to keep the wolves at bay.

nd, any more brilliant ideas?

How about no more frontal assaults?

Agreed.

Listen, I've got an idea.

I'm gonna need some cover.

Well, speak, brother.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Hey Sis, I think I need some personal
counseling. How about it, huh?

Show some respect, Sanders.

She's under my protection.

Or it's the hotbox.

It's all right.

There's no need to be defending me,

just please forgive him as I forgive him.

What a fine figure you cut
in that uniform, Captain.

That shirt, it's so beautiful.

It wouldn't by any chance be
Irish linen, now would it?

I think not.

Oh! More's the pity.

Any questions?

No, I'll take care of it.

The timing's gotta be perfect, so remember,

those lights go on exactly
one half-hour before sunset.

I'll be there. Until tomorrow.

Go in peace, Padre.

Yeah, sure.

Bless you, my children. Bless you.

Thank you for allowing us
to tend to our flock.

What is your interest in those ?

Signore?

You were a long time with them.

Well, they seemed to be in need.

Americanos, you know.

I see.

I think your time for
visitation is over, Padre.

Grazie. Thank you, thank you.

- Addio.
- Thank you.

Addio.

Come along, Sister. Tempus fugit.

Ernesto.

Addio.

Thank you, my son. And bless you.

Hey, hey…

Careful, he'll see you.

If he sees that, your friends
aren't gonna get out of here alive.

Get him inside.

I said, get him inside!

Always try to pay my own way.

Thursday morning,

the Commandant leaves
for the capital at San Luis.

By the time he returns,

if you haven't told me who you
are, who sent you and why,

the Comandante will find you all

the unfortunate victims of v*olence.

Do you believe I'm serious, Uncle Tim?

Oh, yes sir.

You're not a man to be taken lightly.

Especially… when I feel threatened.

Is that your fan?

Yeah.

Paid $ for it.

That's too bad.

I'm gonna have to take it.

I don't suppose you trust me
enough to tell me what you're doing.

No.

I did screw everything up.

Gentry was tell’n me about
how you tried to save him.

I owed him.

My first weeks here were a nightmare.

I was a basket case, a walking dead man.

Gentry took me aside and he showed me

how he survived here for almost years.

I wouldn't call that surviving.

You know what he does?

He's got himself a few acres
of scrub-land in west Texas.

He builds himself a ranch there,

up here in his mind.

Where the fences go,
how big to build a barn,

what color the horses are.

I figured maybe if I got him out with me…

You'd get him back to Texas, huh?

Well, you might still be able to.

We better get outta here somehow,

'cause I'm sure not stay’n.

How?

I got a plan.

What kinda physical shape you in?

Your Mother told me about your condition.

Condition?

Your heart.

There's nothing wrong with my heart.

There's nothing wrong with my heart.

I had a little touch of
rheumatic fever when I was a kid.

That faded years ago.

In case you hadn't noticed, my
Mother is a bright and clever lady.

But you have to dance to her tune.

She gets it her way,

even if it means bending the
truth a little sometimes.

And you've been dancing.

All my life.

I've sometimes wondered,

was my Father like her?

Your Father was one of my very best friends.

He was the greatest.

He was a really stand-up guy.

You'd have liked him.

He'd have liked you.

Buenas dias, señor.
Do you speaks the English?

Si, si. Muy good.

Oh, good, good, good!

Para su… mi amigo y me lost. Losto?

I love you, mama!

Hey, come on baby!

Hey baby, I'll treat you so good…

You know Paradisio Hills?

Paradise Hills Resort?

Do you think he understands me?

Hey, back off man!

Hey sweetheart, hey
come on, give me a kiss.

Hello!

Oh. Oh, excuse me. I'm sorry.

We've taken too much of your time already.

Let's amscray.

Mucho gracias, señor.

It's okay, kiddos. You muy hot stuff.

Oh, you too. Bye-bye.

Bye.

Don't go, baby! Don't go!

Bye!

Bye.

There's trouble.

The lights are gonna come on soon.

I got an idea.

What are you doing here?

Just dreaming.

Get back with the others.

You know, I…

I was thinking about what
you told me the other night.

I meant what I said.

I'm sure you did.

And you've decided to tell me?

Colonel Mendez! I'm dying!

I'm busted inside!

What do you say, Cate?

All aboard. Let's go home, Dom.

Hi.

I don't know what to say to you.

You don't gotta say anything.

He was worth saving.

Well, thanks to you, I spoke
to Mr. Coldsmith Briggs,

and he feels he can help
clear Terry of his conviction

and punish the people responsible.

Yeah, Michael can usually do
anything he puts his mind to.

It's gonna take some time, though.

Yes, that's what he said.

Well Terry, we must go.

Hawke and I are gonna fly Gentry to Texas.

No, no, that's out of the question.

Gentry's a friend of mine.

I'll be with String.

What do you say?

Well, I wouldn't mind the company.

In fact, he kind of reminds me
of an old friend I had one time.

Well, all right.

Phone me when you get there.

Thanks for everything.

All these years, and I
was so wrong about you.

We got a lot of catch’n
up to do one of these days.

She actually treated me like an adult.

Yeah, now you gotta live up to it.

Come on.

Pull up your bootstraps and tuck in
your shirt. We're flying to Texas.

And there's no speed limits up there.

Good, 'cause I've had
plenty of law enforcement

for one lifetime.

All right.
