Wanted Man (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Asi me gusta baby.

See? Makes all the

pretty girls smile.

Even the ugly ones.

But we leave them at home.

-Todo bien Papi?

-Si.

How can we argue with a

pretty smile?

We got five full K's this time.

90% pure.

Happy to trade.

I love it when our

two countries can come

together in unity.

Si.

Right sweetheart?

Claro que si.

Salud.

-Ha ha.

-To America.

And Mexico.

Viva.

Salud.

Woo!

She's nice, right?

Hmm.

Woo.

Me encanta como

bailas mi amor.

Yeah.

Nice.

-sh*t.

-Don't move...

...or die right here.

Give him the case.

Do it.

Give him the f*cking case.

Eyes down.

Hey, it's me.

Eyes down!

No, no, no, it's me.

It's me. It's Kahane.

No, no, no, we're DEA!

We're DEA!

No, no, no!

No!

Jesus f*cking Christ.

What'd you do that for?

He recognized me.

We used to work together.

Let's go.

Now!

sh*t.

Chief!

Come on!

There were two of them.

Chief, we gotta go.

Let's blow this pop stand.

Agh.

For three

days now

the crowd has remained here

at full strength.

Their agitation is apparent

but they have been remaining

peaceful for the most part.

Their frustration and passion

seem to be less directed toward

the current issues

facing the San Diego--

Un-authorized

migrant crossings

at the South West border are

at all time high.

More than 1.9 million

in the last eleven months

but as of yesterday

here in Southern California,

Mexico and the U.S. authorities

have discovered a nearly

eighteen hundred foot

tunnel used to smuggle dr*gs

from a home in Tijuana, Mexico

to a warehouse south

of San Diego.

About seventeen hundred

pounds of cocaine were seized--

Police

spokesperson

outside of the initial

press conference

explained little regarding

the alleged brutal as*ault

of the migrant

driver on Monday by an officer--

Authorities

have found about 15

sophisticated tunnels on

California's borders

with Mexico since 2006

but this recent one

is one of the largest on record

and the efforts into moving

people and dr*gs

into the country,

shows no signs of stopping.

What do we want!

Justice!

That's him.

That's him.

Ugh.

Yeah, once that--

I'll call you back.

Hey, Joe.

Hey,

don't pout big guy.

You look good.

All dressed up for your big day?

Hey come here.

No.

Come on, come here.

I don't want a hug.

What? I'm not gonna

give you a hug.

What's wrong with you?

Wait, do you need a hug?

I mean somebody here

probably knows how to.

I'm sure I could find somebody.

Thank you, yeah.

Come in.

Sit down.

Can't figure any of

this sh*t out.

Sir.

Ain't no job in the world

where having a bad day has

bigger repercussions,

maybe an airline pilot.

That's right.

Okay.

Watch.

Joe! Hey, Joe, Joe, Joe, Hey!

No cameras.

Turn those off. Turn them--

Now for the good stuff.

Joe, Joe.

Stay on the ground.

Take it easy, man. Easy.

Mexican lowlife.

There we go.

That, was the headline.

Mexican lowlife.

Google it and your

face comes out.

They have these things

they call memes of you saying

'Mexican lowlife' over and over.

Crazy what they can

do these days.

Well he was an

illegal from Mexico.

He certainly was a lowlife

so technically--

Johansen...

shut it for a sec.

Your attitude is a

complete PR nightmare.

I'm very sorry sir but you have

the mayor's party

waiting for you in the

press room.

sh*t. All right thanks I'll

be right there.

Maybe it'd be better if I didn't

go to the press

conference because--

Yeah ha ha. Walk with me.

Close my door on the way out.

You do realize you're now the

'defund the police'

poster child?

Jesus, Chief the f*cking guy had

a dozen traffic girls in the

back of that truck.

Gave us chase for two miles.

How come no one mentions that

sh*t in the news?

I get it. Trust me.

That's why despite your

lovely behavior

and the sh*t show of

a mob outside

I'm recommending you for a job,

a job that has 'good idea'

written all over it.

-Job? Already got a--

-Not much longer.

Look, listen to me.

You'll not only lose your job

you'll lose your pension and

you'll probably be prosecuted.

So do you want to hear this

or do you want to apply at

Walgreens across the street?

Yes sir. Ehem, I mean no sir.

How's the ankle?

Uh, it's getting better.

Having surgery, I'm taking

care of it thanks. Don't worry

Good.

Now 87% of your

colleagues have already retired.

Normal humans do

that at your age in this job.

You know you do a

thing for a while then you

get on your horse and

you ride off into the sunset.

So do you want to hear this?

Yes, sir.

The DEA murders

in Silverado, remember that?

Yeah, two undercover

agents k*lled in a drug buy.

Real clusterfuck.

Now the night they were k*lled

with those traffickers

we found the body of

that working girl.

Yeah, I remember one of...

Mason's girls at

Frisky's on the 135.

Yeah.

Well he said he sent two other

hookers to that same party.

They weren't found

that night dead or alive.

Yeah, I remember it

two missing hookers.

Well, they just turned up.

Mexico.

Shoplifting arrest.

We just got word from

the U.S. Attorney

that we can bring

those ladies in for questioning.

They were either

involved or may know who was.

And I took some convincing

but I got the marshals to agree

to send you down to

represent them

and represent us

and bring those two witnesses

back here from Mexico ASAP.

Uh, Mexico.

Can I think about it?

Johansen,

this isn't just

a good idea, it's the only idea.

Let me spell it out for you

you have to go

save yours and our reputation.

Got it?

Or... you're f*cked.

Chief, they're

waiting for us.

My fellow Del Vista citizens

it is with great humility

and respect for human dignity

that we have come here

today to address

an unfortunate incident.

Chief Hernandez will explain

what went terribly wrong.

Chief.

Sergeant

Johansen

made an inexcusable mistake

and we're extremely sorry.

He's been a cop for

over twenty years

and he's come to

realize that-

-Can you turn that off?

- there's still things he

has to learn about

the Hispanic people

and their beautiful culture.

Any questions?

To the most wanted man of the

'Me Too' generation

in California Police history.

Ha. And to that kiss-ass

job in Mexico.

It's a damn publicity stunt.

Not a job.

I tried to talk the

chief out of it.

I figured you'd be better off on

vacation till the next assh*le

does something

politically incorrect,

and then you're just, you know,

old news.

He's already old news!

Thank you Crystal.

That was lovely.

You should talk Brynner.

She's half your age.

That girl?

She makes twice my pension.

Ha. Bet she does.

So how many years did I

work for that assh*le Hernandez?

He never sent me to Mexico, huh?

And I got all the shirts

for it.

Big man.

Yeah.

Don't do it.

Just look at the boss and say:

'It's too dangerous to go to

Mexico.'

Mostly because...

What?

Loaded with Mexicans.

-He's funny.

-He's right.

Look I just hate

assholes who just use

our country as a doormat

to wipe their dirty feet on.

That's bullshit.

Yeah you know the second they

cross over that line

they want a lawyer.

They want some-

they want a place to live, they

want some extra money.

And they want a green card.

I'm sorry... assh*le

You're illegal.

You don't get sh*t.

Yeah that's right.

My dad came over from Sweden.

The guy I worked his ass off.

Was in the Marines

bled for this country

didn't get anything for free

and these people just

walk in here.

They want it all

just because they

crossed that line.

Think you're gonna hear

that on CNN, MSNBC?

But even f*cking Fox, man,

they don't tell you the

real, not anymore.

-Hey, I love Fox.

-Yeah.

Ha ha oh, boy. Used to be bad

but now it's a f*cking joke.

-That's right.

-Yeah.

The whole f*cking

thing is a joke.

I agree, so

take it as the big hint

you know? Get out of dodge.

Retire, brother.

-And don't go to Mexico.

-Yeah, yeah.

Listen to Hilts.

Walk in there and tell Hernandez

to shove this job up his ass

and throw that badge on the desk

just like Dirty f*cking Harry.

Come down, spend time

with your friends.

Get a twenty year old

on your lap.

There you go.

You weren't much better

at conversation

when we rode

together Brynner.

I appreciate the pep talk boys

but I'm heading south tomorrow

so get me a drink or a stripper

-or something so I can...

-Yo!

Robbery.

Hands up.

I'm sorry, ladies

bingo is three doors down.

I just spent some time

with your mother

in the broom closet down there.

She's still decomposing?

That is hot.

That's hot.

That's my future ex-wife.

Oh, she never heard that before.

Oh, come on.

-What, is it is it me or are

these girls--

Getting younger and younger?

No, no. That's just you getting

older and older, Tinelli.

-That's right.

-I can live with that.

Hey, Johansen you

looked good on TV this morning.

Oh, really?

Well, thanks, psycho.

Where did you get that hat?

We got to find another place to

hang out, strip clubs are so...

I don't know, they're so 80s.

I like the 80s.

80s are okay with me.

Hey, I need another sh*t.

-Go.

-You want?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Something brown.

Let me drive you home,

all right?

You sure you want to go

tomorrow?

-Yeah.

-Easy.

I drive better drunk than you

do sober.

-Oh, come on. Please

-Yeah, that's right. I'm fine.

-I'm great.

-All right.

All right buddy,

see you when I'm back stateside.

Hey, you're a work

in progress, you know that?

-All right, yeah.

-Take it easy down there.

Yeah yeah. I'll have a few

tequila sh*ts.

Ha ha. All right.

-On you.

-Yeah.

Hey, what the hell?

Take it easy.

-Take it easy.

-Hey. Hey.

I'm sorry, seor.

Seor?

You're sorry?

You got a license?

-Yes, of course.

-How about a green card?

Actually, I was born in Arizona.

Have I seen you before?

Yeah, maybe so.

Joe, it's okay man let it go.

It was an accident, all right?

Sir, I'm going to go into my car

get my license and registration

okay? Just give me a minute.

Hey, you know what you are?

You're...

It's a damn scratch, anyway.

-Ha.

-Yeah.

Forget it.

All right, all right.

I'm sorry, sir.

Ugh.

Hey, amigo,

you'll take good

care of that Smith & Wesson.

It's an expensive

American piece of art.

And we will cherish her forever.

Don't worry. We'll give it

back to you oiled and polished.

Officer De La Cruz.

Mexican Federal Police.

Liaison to the

wonderful world of extraditions.

Personally I prefer

this .45 caliber Jericho 941

made in Israel.

We can pick our own on

weapons here.

Johansen.

Detective Sergeant.

So you're the Great White Whale.

Excuse me?

Gran Ballena Blanca.

Moby d*ck.

News down here likes to give

personalities, special names.

Your English is pretty good.

My Italian is even better.

Four years, San Diego State.

It's a 3180.

Sign here and here.

The U.S. Marshal

signed already this morning.

They meet us on your

way back to the border.

Wait.

I thought I was

supposed to pick 'em up here.

Andale.

-Detective.

-I can't believe this.

Regarding the DEA m*rder victims

in that drug sh**t,

the U.S. attorney

just cleared the red tape with

the victims' families.

No death penalty in case of

prosecution for either

so all governments are happy.

We can now saddle up, cowboy,

and go get your witnesses

our two lovely travel

companions.

How long?

Three hours.

Ugh.

One day I'd like to

get involved with the DEA.

Put in my time here

maybe a couple more years

and put in for a transfer.

I've already studied in the

States on a temporary visa

for four years so should

be pretty easy.

Uh-huh.

You know those dr*gs

flow both ways.

It's true, they don't all come

from here.

But I admit it gets

pretty bad at the border.

Los coyotes make it bad.

We're stopping here?

Exactly.

Don't worry. We make it nice

and easy for you.

Quick in, quick out.

Get you home to your

beautiful strippers and beer.

I'm f*cking with you.

I know it's a stereotype

about you American cops.

Detective Sergeant.

Mr. Gran Ballena.

Come meet our witnesses,

Leticia Gomez

and Seorita Rosa Barranco.

Someone tried to k*ll

her last week.

Nos van a entregar con este

gero?

Que no lo ves?

Que no entiendes?

What the hell is this one

yelling about?

She says we might as well k*ll

her now and be done with it.

Okay, I'll think about it. Let's

get back stateside first.

Into the car.

Mira si nos encuentran muertos

va a ser tu culpa.

Pinche cerdo! Me las vas a

pagar pendejo.

Que no se das cuenta?

Ugh.

Esto no

puede ser pasando.

Rosa nos van a encontrar muert--

Yeah that's right.

Gomez and Barranco.

Got the witnesses right here.

We'll be in

San Diego in a couple of hours.

All right, boss.

Porque no le cuentas a

tu jefe tambien

que en dos horas

nos van a encontrar muertas.

-What?

-Tu eres el maton?

Pinche gato.

Yeah, yeah.

Shut the f*ck up.

I'm tired.

So I was trying to decide

between a cop or a firefighter

but I ended up

as a federali at the border.

My English and all.

Make more of a

difference that way, you know?

And I might try acting if I

ever go to Hollywood.

Sometimes I mess around with

movie lines.

You looking at me?

There's nobody else around here.

Or...

Say hello to my little friend.

That's Pacino.

Mhmm.

With my real police skills

plus being bilingual and all,

I think I got a

pretty good sh*t.

Algn problema?

-Hazte a un lado!

-Soy oficial federal.

Get down!

What the f*ck is going on?

No, freeze! Drop the w*apon!

Leti.

Leti!

Leti!

Chief, I need help down here.

We were ambushed

by two sh**t

dressed as police officers.

Yeah, I'm okay.

No, they're dead.

Leti!

I need back up.

Right this--

Ok, ok.

Tell me where you are.

I'll find out if I can

send anybody.

sh*t.

I've been hit.

I'll call you back.

Ayudame por favor.

Leti! Leti! Ayudame!

Leti!

She Dead?

Muerta?

Yes, muerte.

She's dead.

She never wanted any of this.

Okay, we need to find

something to bandage my wound.

I knew they were going to k*ll

us for what we saw.

They k*lled my friend.

My friend Leti!

I need you to

go to that vehicle over there.

Look for a first aid kit.

First aid kit.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait, wait.

No. What are you doing?

Ahh sh*t.

Come back. Wait.

Ugh.

Wait.

Come back.

Ahh.

Come back.

Come back.

That's what

you're looking for?

Ahh. Easy.

Use that big one.

Stop the bleeding.

Okay, okay. I don't know you.

I don't give a f*ck about you.

They'll be here soon and

I won't be here.

Those...

were...

...real cops?

Mexico's finest.

We need to get out of here.

Hospital.

No, no, no, no.

That's not where you want to go.

Look I know a place but...

Ahh.

Hey, hey, hey no more of

your f*cking calls.

Someone knew that we were here

when you called everyone.

Now they're going

to know that we're still alive

so no more of your f*cking

calls, entiendes ?

Siempre con el pinche telfono.

Uh.

Who are you?

What happened?

Where's that hooker?

I mean...

woman.

Hey, qu pasa?

Hey, what's going on?

Hey, I'm talking to you.

Habla ingls?

Ah, sh*t.

Don't worry.

You still have all your organs.

You.

What the hell happened?

This is my brother.

He's not one of the ones who

tried to k*ll you.

Like I said those were

real police yesterday in name.

But just because you

wear the badge

doesn't mean you

always live by it.

I believe they're

trying to k*ll you.

This is called kidnapping.

Necesita descansar.

Ya cuando se

recupere veo que hacer con el.

He said you need to rest.

Then later we'll talk

about what we do with you.

Where's my phone?

I need that.

I used it to get

you off the road yesterday

where your red white

and blue blood

was flowing down

the pavement...

and then I smashed it to pieces.

Just relax.

We had a doctor fix you

up the right way.

He said the b*llet's out but you

gotta rest at least a week.

Thanks, but a week? No way.

People from the States

are gonna wonder where I am.

You gotta let me go.

No lo puedo tener

aqui mucho lo van a encontrar.

Where's my g*n?

-I need that.

-Hey!

Necesitas. Descansar.

You need to rest.

Wait.

Hey. Agh.

Hey...

get me out of these cuffs.

There's 500 bucks in it for you.

A thousand?

Hey...

talking to you.

Comida?

Okay.

Yeah.

Change of the guard, huh?

Mhmm.

Gracias.

Bueno.

It's good prison food.

Hey, how you doing?

Hello.

Good to see you, boys.

Jimmy.

How you been, man?

Lose some weight?

You look good.

What?

You missing your old life?

No.

I miss my young life.

-assh*le.

-Ha ha.

What's happening?

The news is going nuts on all

this now, Joe's getting famous.

-Yeah.

-k*lling some Mexican cops.

On the run with a witness.

One hell of a story.

Yeah.

I'll call you back.

Brynner.

Okay look,

I know you're all

old friends but

I can't start talking out of

the office right now.

This turned into obviously the

worst move of my career.

Just a concerned

civilian now, Chief. Come on.

And I appreciate your concern.

But right now I have to keep

this clean and contained.

You hear back from him yet?

I can tell you that I've

been on the phone

ad nauseam with

state and feds.

They're picking this up.

We will find him.

I'm sure there's an explanation

for this clusterfuck.

Well, I'm glad you're enjoying

your tour of the office

but is there something...

This job...

It's just a little tougher

to step away from

than you think it's going to be.

I'd like to get back into

the thick of it.

Do some good again.

I'm sure.

I'll let you know

if I can use your help Brynner.

But right now just go

back to your life

and I'll keep you posted.

As for you, Hilts,

I need you on the Woolsey

Street sh**ting.

Sir, Kamstock's got

that covered.

I want you focused on it.

Don't sweat it, guys.

He's a strong one.

This may look as shitty

as it gets but

Johansen has a few lives left.

I know it.

Ugh.

Uh.

Thanks Wolfman.

Mama te va a traer

comida en la maana.

Food.

Gracias.

Aqui tengo su medicina.

Bueno mija no

te quedes mucho tiempo con el.

Here.

It's okay, I don't need them.

Take it.

So, whoever came after

you yesterday,

us,

had enough money

to pay off local police.

That means cartel, traficantes.

Alright well let me make

one phone call

and I'll bring some help

from the U.S. down here.

Don't worry about it

your family's going to be fine.

You get me out of these

cuffs all right?

I don't have the key.

Ahh.

That's bullshit.

I won't be coming back with you.

I just want you to know.

You are, like it or not.

You don't get it, do you?

Who do you think is

trying to k*ll us?

k*ll you, you mean. You clearly

know how to piss people off.

Well like it or not,

they're now trying to k*ll you

too if you haven't noticed.

I saw what happened

that night and they know it.

The night of the DEA murders.

All right, so you saw some

cartel guys that now want

you dead, too.

Not cartel.

They were cops.

American cops.

I'm sorry, but coming from

someone who hands up

blowjobs for a living that's a

tough one to swallow.

No pun intended.

f*ck you.

Hey.

Hey wait I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

So what did you see that makes

you think they were...

American police?

I heard them.

The masked men

recognized the DEA agent.

Eyes down.

Eyes down.

It's me, it's Kahane.

We're DEA. We're DEA!

And then they sh*t him.

Jesus f*cking Christ.

-What did you do that for?

-He recognized me.

We used to work together.

He said they worked together.

So,

if they were cops

then who's after you, us?

Well we got picked up

for shoplifting

so, someone must have tipped off

the cartel where to find us.

Okay,

well somehow I'll deal with it

but just let me make

a phone call.

It's dangerous.

The longer we're here the more

danger for your family, for you.

Everyone.

I'll think about it.

Trust me, I was far from

interested in coming back here.

This is my cousin

Salvador's place.

I can't even go back to

my own village.

They'd be looking for me there.

Why come back?

I guess I could have left you on

the side of the road to die.

Well it's a tough

choice between that

and being chained up

watching Spanish novelas.

See, I told you...

bad husband.

No buen hombre.

Dices bien, es muy mal hombre.

Mhm.

Mama.

Cmo te sientes?

Estoy muy cansada, mija.

Descanse.

Okay.

If I go back with you...

will they really protect me?

You want me to bring

you back to the States?

Yes,

but keep your voice down.

Okay, yeah.

Witness protection is

a real thing

but you have to have

information they want.

I do.

Okay, get me out of

these cuffs and...

I'll take you back.

It's not up to me.

Who is it up to?

My brother.

Call someone to come pick us up.

Miguel's not gonna like this.

He'll like us dead even less.

Chief,

it's Johansen.

He's on the line from Mexico.

Thanks.

Johansen, where the holy hell

are you?

I'm okay.

And our star witness Rosa

is alive and well.

But we need to get out of here.

We need help to do it.

All right, what city are you

near?

La Linea, right?

Yeah, it's uh,

say a few hours away from the

prison we picked them up.

There's a U.S.

consulate in Nogales.

I'll let them know you

two are coming in.

FBI's already down there with

Mexican federal police.

There's some serious

sh*t coming down.

They could lock you up for

twenty years.

So get to that consulate.

Okay we'll get there safe.

Listen one thing...

she's convinced the sh**t

in Silverado County were cops.

Excuse me?

Yeah, that's right.

American cops.

She seems pretty

sure of herself.

One of ours?

Well, she said she

heard them and I...

tend to believe her.

Chief?

Just what we need right now

hard enough time fighting the

bad guys now we have to fight

the general public

and f*cking IA?

Just hang tight.

- Let me think about this.

- Rosa,

ven a comer.

All right, I'll call you

again tomorrow

or the day after, alright?

Yeah okay. We'll work it out.

I gotta go.

Johansen one more thing--

Lunch.

Es para ti.

Ven con nosotros.

Padre te agradecemos por

nuestros alimentos

por favor protegenos siempre.

Y por favor ayudanos

a salir con bien de esto.

- Amen.

- Amen.

Rosa...

preguntale que si le gusta la

comida.

You like our food?

Oh yeah.

Do you know what 'queso de

puerco' is?

Okay yeah. Yeah, I like cheese.

What kind of 'queso' is it?

Dile.

It's uhm...

head cheese.

Brains.

No, no, no, it's from

the pig's head.

Well I guess that's better.

Rosa...

quiero que me

traduzcas por favor.

dile que lamento que nos este

acompaando

bajo estas circumstancias

me gustaria que fuera diferente

pero que todos estamos

muy agradecidos por salvarte

gracias.

He said that

you're a guest here but that he

apologizes for the circumstances

and that they're all very

grateful for saving me.

Yes.

A guest.

Hice lo que tuve que

hacer para salvarles a los dos

asi como usted yo tambien soy

policia.

Hey...

there are bad cops here

and in the States, too.

My brother's honest.

Ya le dijiste lo del cartel?

He told me earlier

that those cops

were paid by the Sinaloa cartel

to k*ll me and my friend.

Well it sounds like

you're in a bad spot

but it's got nothing

to do with me.

And yet,

you're the one wanted for

m*rder.

What?

They said you k*lled the federal

and the two Mexican cops.

The authorities are looking

for you. It's all over the news.

Then why am I sitting

at a policeman's table

having lunch with his family?

Why am I cuffed to a damn bed?

Huh.

La familia es todo.

Family is everything.

Dile que cuando se siente mejor

lo llevo a la frontera.

Por lo pronto se queda aqui

que hay mucha gente

buscandolo fuera.

He said when you're healthy

he'll take you to the States

but until then you have

to hide inside

because we're all dead

if you don't.

-There are spies everywhere.

-Okay, okay but what about her?

Ella se queda

aqui.

He said I stay here.

No, I can't do that.

I came down to get her.

She can help solve

who k*lled those DEA agents.

In America, we can protect--

No you can't!

Go.

-Ahora.

-We should talk about this.

This is bullshit.

Agh.

You're making a huge mistake,

buddy.

What's wrong with this country?

Miguel?

Hmm.

No.

Miguel.

You need

to unlock me!

I need the handcuff

keys back here!

I need the keys!

They're coming in to

the back over here!

Hurry up!

Behind you! Watch out!

Ahh!

Hey!

You okay?

Ahh sh*t.

They're coming to

the front door.

Todo va a estar bien, Ma.

You okay?

You okay?

Yes.

-Stay down.

-Si okay.

Damn it.

Se tiene que ir.

Los dos.

He said we got to go.

Both of us.

Way ahead of you.

Thanks...

for everything.

Esto es nuestra seora

de Guadalupe.

Thats our lady

of Guadalupe.

She's a symbol of our identity

and also of social justice and

femininity.

Great. My favorites.

Si quieres pelear con los lobos

tienes que ser un lobo.

If you want to fight with the

wolves...

you got to be a wolf.

I know.

Gracias.

Mija.

Mi princesa.

Gotta go.

What are you doing?

Calling my boss, telling him

we're skipping his

fed chaperones.

Going with your connections.

Coyotes, right?

Every time you call that f*cking

guy someone tries to

come and k*ll us.

Are you stupid or something?

I'm sorry, I've known

him for twenty five years Rosa.

Then how do you explain what

happened at my house

when you called him?

My cousin is dead!

-I can't. I can't. I'm sorry

-My cousin is dead! He's dead!

Okay, okay.

Calm down. Calm down.

And my mom almost d*ed

and Miguel's hurt.

I'm sorry about Salvador.

He was a good man.

All right.

Okay?

You okay?

All right.

So who do you know that you

trust that you can call?

There's this...

There's this old buddy of mine,

Brynner.

He's a tough guy.

Yeah I trust him.

So call him and tell him to come

and get us when we cross, okay?

Okay.

Over there.

Keep going.

Is it set up?

He said they'll take us

to the border

and then we're on our own.

Tell your friend he can

pick us up there.

We leave tomorrow at midnight.

Remember call me

when you get across.

That's right.

You hang in there.

I'll get you home soon.

Yeah, I know.

We'll be here till then.

Hey, Brynner.

Yeah?

Thanks, buddy.

No sweat.

You hungry?

I know a place that

still delivers.

Okay.

My mother's money came in handy.

The coyotes charged

us $4,000 each.

That's a lot of money.

Bringing people across

is big business.

Thanks.

Well I always pay back my debts.

Hmm.

You're welcome...

Johansen.

Mike.

My name is Mike.

You're welcome, Mike.

You have a family?

Got married twice,

divorced twice, and that's it.

Oh, no kids.

End of story.

Hey.

You miss your home?

Do I miss my home?

Yeah, I guess.

My best friend,

she grew up watching her

mother and her grandmother

go from nothing to nowhere.

Just living a life of struggle

and pain.

But she knew a place

where everyone had a chance.

America.

She paid a coyote group to get

us across.

And she had a cousin

in Los Angeles who would

raise me and put me

through school.

But she never set foot on

American soil.

She d*ed a hundred yards

away from her dream for me.

With two fat, slobbering

coyote scumbags

breathing down her face.

And I got away before

they could do the same to me.

So at sixteen...

I lived on the streets...

undocumented.

And you learn some things there.

Some things you shouldn't

have to learn.

But I survived the States.

I stayed alive.

And I know

I can do it again.

Well, I'm sure you can.

Look, it's late.

Let's get some sleep.

Yeah?

Any dumb ass cop in

there who want a ride

back to the land of the free?

Hilts?

Don't sh**t me,

big guy.

f*ckin' Mexico, man.

I've been telling you

since I saw--

Hey!

Hey!

Ahh fu--

Are you packing?

No!

Okay, turn around.

Glad to see we're still

good friends.

How'd you know I was here?

Hernandez?

Your heart felt call to an old

buddy traced back to a village

about eight miles

down the highway.

Three hotels between

it and the great wall.

Still got it.

Alright.

So why in the hell are you here?

We.

Look, it's a sh*t show

back in the States.

Internal Affairs and the

FBI are all working

on coming down here and

grabbing you today.

We're thinking it's best

to do it this way.

No press, no bullshit,

nobody knows.

Just us.

But we're planning to go

with her contacts, the Coyotes,

tonight.

Hey man,

trusting's hard.

Knowing who to trust...

is even harder.

Hello, Miss.

I'm Hilts.

Old buddy of Mike's here.

Yeah,

he's with that guy I

called to meet us.

That's right,

Brought the old boys club.

Okay, so where are we crossing?

Close to where you came in.

So get yourselves ready

and meet us out back in five.

Okay.

Good to have you back buddy.

-Hey Hilts...

-Yeah?

Thanks for sticking by me.

Alright, let's get out of here

while we still can.

Young lady, your chariot.

God, I've missed this work.

Let's roll, Chief.

Vacation's over, Johansen.

You look like hell, by the way.

-Good to see you, Brynner.

-Yeah, ha ha.

So many questions, my friend.

Oh-ho.

You okay? You feel all right?

Yeah, somewhat tired.

I got a 0.9mm

through and through

right by the spleen there,

and I need to have it

checked out.

Don't worry about it.

We'll take care of you.

Alright, which way home?

Left.

Okay, let's blow this pop stand.

Rosa...

surprised you got this far

with this guy helping you out.

But...

happy to finally have you.

Hard to believe I am

so willing...

to risk my ass to be

the one to bring

the fugitive Johansen back

across the Mexican border...

illegally.

The irony, huh?

So, Joe...

how's your head?

Taking this all in okay?

Ready to put this mess

behind you and get back home?

Yeah, well, I'm ready

for a damn bath anyway.

So which way are we going?

Pretty near the regular

crossing.

Got a couple of amigos

helping us out.

So tell me...

what does an aging retired

cop do for fun?

Do you ever get bored?

Miss the chase?

The control?

Is it hard to just let it all go

and become a normal nobody...

-...cares about you civilian?

-Come on.

Guess what?

Nobody cared about me before.

There were

two of them.

Let it go.

Let's blow this pop stand.

No, no, no!

Si quieres pelear con los lobos

tiene que ser un lobo.

What's that about a wolf?

Yeah.

If you want to fight the

wolves you gotta be a...

wolf.

The f*ck is that

supposed to mean?

These

are the wolves.

Trust me.

Hey Brynner...

can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah, sure.

-Outside.

-Oh.

Yeah okay, yeah.

Let's pull up over there.

Let's go down here.

Listen, I need to

ask you something.

Sure.

That night at the warehouse...

the DEA murders...

the K*llers may have been cops.

Cops?

Yeah.

Jesus you know...

We gotta get you to a doc

boss man, come on.

-I was wondering...

-Let's get going.

Maybe your twenty

something years

of being an outstanding

officer of the law

has a scent about all that.

An instinct or two.

Hey Joe, it's

getting hot out here.

I'm f*cking retired.

They don't tell me sh*t anymore.

Come on what's the word fellas?

Joe's concerned that the beauty

queen may have told him

that there's some

police officers

involved in the

Silverado sh**ting.

-Cops? She told you that?

-Yeah.

What's going on?

Did someone get carsick?

Hey, this isn't the

place for this.

No.

No.

Actually, it's the

perfect place.

Give it up. Give up your piece

come on.

We're gonna have to have a

little chat.

Mike, give it to him.

Come on.

Come on.

Okay.

Look, we're here

to save you, Joe.

That night was

meant to be an easy in and out.

No sh*ts, no dead,

easy cash.

We're gonna big 'f*ck you' to

those cartel assholes

bringing their sh*t

poison into our country.

It is what it is.

Yeah, the DEA wasn't

supposed to be there.

We didn't know.

We were there for the money.

You know how it is these

days you make one sh*t mistake,

some assh*le's down your throat

trying to defund you and

demoralize you.

Do we miss the body cams

and the TV? No.

But the rest of it, the chase,

the control, the power,

yeah, I miss it.

I do. We need it Joe.

You need it too.

All right, we don't

have enough time.

Go get her.

-Ahh! No!

-Easy, easy, bitch.

No, no, no!

Don't f*cking touch me!

Come on!

I wish to hell I'd made

that night disappear

but we can do that right now,

right here.

Look, we just take

care of her and we drive.

That's it, we just drive

away all right?

I'm sorry they sent

you down here for this Joe.

Okay.

I've tried to talk the

chief out of it but--

It's too late for this,

we don't need this.

You dragged me across the border

just to leave me here

to f*cking die?

I should have just stayed

with my mom and Miguel!

Shut up!

Hey, wait.

- Stupid bitch.

- Wait listen.

Please don't let them k*ll me.

There's gotta be another way.

The girl's gotta go.

Easy, Chief.

What are you doing?

He's coming back with us.

We talked about this.

You gotta let her go Joe.

Let's let this Mexican sh*t

hole flush itself

and we'll all get the

hell back home.

What do you say?

Let her go, Joe.

Or do we dig two graves?

-Brynner I'm talking to you!

-What the f*ck!

Calm the f*ck down!

What the hell's wrong with you.

-Don't do this!

-You outta your f*cking mind?

Uh!

What the f*ck.

f*ck.

Joe, wait a minute.

Come on, man.

Don't. Gimme a break here man.

Agh!

You f*cking bitch!

Stay down!

Oh f*ck.

Sorry.

f*cking Mexico.

Okay.

You okay?

Yeah.

Here, take this.

We leave at midnight.

Muchachos lo hicimos!

Lo hicimos! Felicidades!

Thanks.

Alright.

-Congrats.

-Thanks, man.

Feels good, doesn't it?

What's that?

When the crap ends.

Yeah.

Pretty good.

Hey, better when they love you

than when they hate you,

you gotta admit.

Can't argue there.

Ha ha Johansen.

There wasn't much

future left for you

and somehow you

found it you son of a bitch.

Commendations and all.

Thankfully,

the rest of the guys, well...

they deserve to just be

forgotten.

And they will be.

That's right.

I still got a lot of work

to clean up in the department

but at least you're no longer

the monster in the closet.

Keep it that way.

No problem.

Oh well, well.

Must have been months since

you two didn't have

nineteen lawyers between you.

Go ahead.

Thanks boss.

Ugh.

Hi.

Hi.

Nice speech in there.

Oh, really?

Meh.

Good enough.

Look, I tried to contact

you but they wouldn't let me.

With all the stupid legal stuff.

I know.

So,

how do you feel, Mr...

Medal of Honor police man?

Like Swiss cheese.

Two more surgeries.

Still have to fix the ankle.

Fallen apart. What can I say?

Well, you look better

in pieces than

most men do, put together.

Really? Thanks.

I mean, you're...

You look very...

Pretty?

I mean I don't want to put words

in your mouth, but...

Yeah, I was going

to say something like that.

So, how are you doing?

Well,

the DA cut me a pretty

sweet deal so

I'm now on my way to becoming

an official U.S. citizen.

Really?

Great.

-Yeah.

-Ha ha.

Well, that's,

that's great, yeah.

Well you deserve it.

You know, maybe I'll, um...

Maybe I'll see you around.

Maybe you will.

Yeah. Okay.

All right.

See you around.

Hey, Rosa?

You like American coffee?

It's the best.

I know a place.
