Post by bunniefuu »

Carlos.

I would prefer a kiss.

[soft chuckle] You're not that lucky.

[pained groans]

[screams]

Coño.

Now, what do you want?

Answers. Is that too much to ask?

My slaves are ready to serve.

The Peacekeeper's wife and child are mine.

And only one piece of the puzzle remains.

I'm working on it.

Work harder.

I want Venganza.

[guitar music rises]

Carlos: Dying took me to the Other Side. I saw Xibalba. I lived in the belly of the beast.

I know what's coming.

[male vocalist singing in Spanish]

Why are we here?

You said all the Lords were dead, except Venganza.

Well, Venganza has many obsessions.

And one of them... is her.

Her name is Yalida.

I used to arrange private shows at one of Venganza's hideaways.

You think she knows where she is?

I'm sure of it.

And she trusts me.

Do you know why they dance?

Never asked.

It is a lament, a sorrow.

It comes from centuries of living in the darkest corners of the world.

No lives. No will.

Nothing to fight for.

I thought it was just nice music.

Brasa: General.

Has the dancer made contact with Venganza?

No, but she has new aficionados, Carlos and Santanico.

Carlitos is back?

Bring him to me.

And La Diosa?

She is no such thing, and you know better.

Finish her.

It shall be done.

Time to go.

What?

Get up.

[groaning]

This is destiny, you know. Bringing us back together.

Yeah, well, destiny's about to kick our ass.

Shall we dance?

[combat grunts]

[bone crunches]

[Carlos groans]

[screams]

[screams]

[Carlos sighs]

We still got it.

I do.

Mi amor...

There was a tunnel under the barn.

We never figured out where it led to.

It leads to Amaru.

Then your wife and kid must be close by.

And that's all that matters.

Technically, it's not all that matters.

It's not, Richard, but he's right.

So, how would we even start?

I've got a Ranger buddy.

He's got access to a ground-penetrating radar.

[chuckles] Penetrating.

You're not gonna want us around.

I'll take Burt and the Professor.

Who knows what we'll find down there.

[grunting]

Jesus Christ. What the hell happened to you?

I did.

Scott: I caught her outside.

You guys never told me she was a friendly.

She's not.

Well, well, well. Humpty f*ckin' Dumpty.

I understand you... infants... still haven't stopped the Queen of Hell.

Perhaps I can be of some assistance.

Hell is coming, and I'm the only one who can stop it.

And you guys chain me like a dog.

[light chuckles]

I mean, who are you people?

Ragtag band of criminals and bloodsuckers, fighting for what? Truth? Justice?

The Mexican-American way?

You know, if I decided to chop you up with this, outcome's gonna be a little different.

Yeah, the Xibalbans make great weapons.

And their Queen is also going to win.

Unless we take what she wants.

Unless we take Venganza.

We?

I will tell you where, and I'll tell you how.

But I want in.

I always wanted to work with Los Hermanos Gecko.

Just rip his frickin' face off.

We'll start from there, work our way down.

He'll talk, won't you, Carlitos?

Nah.

Carlito wants to play... he can play.

Way I see it, we probably can use the extra cannon fodder.

Really?

You're in.

Now talk.

You do know why Amaru k*lled the Lords.

Richie: They ate her, they kept her blood, which is how it got into Kate.

Did you know that she kept the bones?

Lemme guess.

Venganza's the only one who knows where they are.

You get Venganza, you get the bones, w*r is over.

Forgettin' something?

What does this mean?

Río Sangre.

It's a prison. Just over the Border. Culebras and humans, side by side. The worst of the worst. The humans provide insulation, and the weak ones, nourishment for the culebras. Some of them have been in there for centuries. No warden.

The inmates are in charge.

However, they serve at Venganza's pleasure. She lets them fight it out, and the toughest, the strongest... humans or culebras... they're allowed to run the place. I guess you can say she runs it like a snake pit.

She's surrounded. She's protected.

The only way you're going to get to her is if I take you in myself.

Okay. He's in? I'm out.

You guys got plenty of hands on deck.

I'm gonna grab the boys and track down those tunnels.

Fair enough. Stay in touch.

All right, Richard, we need a plan.

A big one, all right?

Scott, keep an eye on Carlito.

So, let me get this straight.

You spent all this f*cking time chasing him down, but for what?

Why do you suddenly give a sh*t about this?

I want Venganza as much as everyone else.

Bullshit.

You couldn't possibly know we're going after her.

Why?

You once told me revenge was a dead end.

That I'd wake up one day and still be mad.

I'm still mad.

Who told you you could come up here... and ask for a sit-down?

She cleared this, didn't she?

She did.

The burglar and the impresario, huh?

Is that really... how people see you?

It doesn't matter behind these walls.

[speaking Spanish]

Because behind these walls, the only thing that matters is how I see you.

[electricity crackles]

[soft chuckle]

Seth: Oh, f*ck.

Culebras... have a lot of gifts.

I have to make sure you are who you say you are.

Look, she's gonna wanna talk to this assh*le. Trust me.

So first, why don't you wipe that sh*t-eating grin off of your face and point it into that camera... and tell her we're here.

[buzz]

[door lock opens]

[speaking Spanish]

What he said.

It's been a while since you did time, Mr. Gecko.

You're going to love it here.

Culebras and feed bags living side by side.

It's just like home.

[male vocalist singing in Spanish]

Río Sangre.

[male vocalist continues singing]

[inmates catcall]

[bestial growl]

[chorus vocalizes in Spanish]

[reverse indicator beeping]

man: Let's go. You have 20 minutes.

Man, I'm loving this new laundry service.

Careful. She bites.

[bestial roars]

[men screaming]

[both snarling]

[inmates shouting]

man: You gonna come and get me now, Gecko?

man: Gonna f*ck you up!

Mi gente... what kind of welcome is that?

Voice of God? Really?

What do you want, Mr. Gecko?

This is not part of your mission.

Carlito here did a deal with our enemies.

He's got answers.

Says he won't share 'em unless it's directly with you.

Where's your brother?

Got me.

You're not working together?

I don't believe that.

What can I say? The other side got ahold of him.

Think I'm gonna start calling him Hellboy.

Richard has always been different.

Yeah, well, he went off the f*cking deep end.

I'm gonna ask you again. What do you want?

I want what you promised me.

I want my free ticket to El Rey.

You can't really expect some high-tech bullshit to find these tunnels.

Come on, I'm telling you, this is a waste of time.

We heard you, man. Jesus!

Don't you have an off button?

No, but I got a fist that'll go so far up your ass, you'll be singing Mayan folk songs...

Stop!

I told you kids to shut up three miles back.

Now I can't march in there with you bozos, so you think you can you sit here and play nice for ten minutes?

Willet: It really is somethin'.

Ground penetratin' radar.

You are not gonna believe it.

You get the coordinates I sent you?

I did.

Thanks for doin' this.

Ain't done it yet. Need some deets, Fred.

Need to know exactly why you're making me come down here in the middle of the night.

I told you.

The Zetas are moving product through that ranch.

Product.

I need a little picker-upper.

Look, if you need me to file a formal report, I'm more than happy to do it.

We'll back-date it.

Let's just get down there and check it out.

So determined.

You must really want these Zeta boys.

It's my job, isn't it?

Is it...

Peacekeeper?

Queen's gonna pay a nice price for you.

Queen Amaru's still out there, Mr. Gecko.

You haven't done your job.

I just brought you a giant f*cking prize.

And you think that's enough for a free ticket to paradise?

Absolutely.

Very bold choice.

Makes me question where your loyalties lie now.

Where do you think?

You know, the way I see it... you gotta find something worth fighting for in this life.

And I have.

Me.
[door buzzes]

[inmates catcall]

Lord Venganza, shall we bring them down to you?

Bring them.

As you request, my Lord.

Let's go.

How do we know we're going the right way?

The guard that I bit knew the way.

Relax. Nobody's gonna question us.

We just gotta grab her and walk her out.

Señor Madrigal.

No time for pleasantries.

These guards are imposters.

They're here to kidnap you.

[speaking Spanish]

No, mi diosa.

Destiny is back... to kick your ass.

You f*ckin' scumbag.

[door buzzes]

[inmates shouting]

[inmates shouting]

Congratulations. We just became fresh meat.

I should rip you apart all over again.

I just saved your life.

Hijo de puta.

What game are you playing now?

The one that I win.

Amaru wants you dead, and I don't blame her.

You're a criminal, just like los Geckos.

You mean, the criminals you hired to fight this w*r?

I did what I had to do.

Oh, really, and what's that, huh?

Sent them to their deaths?

Went into hiding, surrounding yourself with the very people you oppress?

[scoffs]

"Lord" Venganza.

How dare you!

Tatuaje is here.

[groaning]

[inmates shouting]

Why would he do this?

Because he's Carlos.

It makes no sense. He practically begged us.

He wanted in, remember?

He played us.

Now we're in the one place that we never wanted to be.

You see, we don't really do well in correctional facilities.

Well, he doesn't.

No, no. I'm good. I got this.

Yeah?

It still makes no sense.

Well, somehow, I don't think that they give a sh*t.

They're gonna kick our ass.

That's kinda obvious.

No. Carlos said my destiny was gonna come and kick my ass, something I said before El Tatuaje att*cked us.

El what?

General Tatuaje.

The Xibalban who followed us, he's here.

Oh, great.

At least we know this sh*t can't get any worse.

¡Dos Geckos! ¡Que sorpresa!

And La Diosa herself.

Santanico Pandemonium!

[inmates cheer]

You know, it's not every day that we have such a high-class ranfla for dinner.

[inmate chuckles]

Maybe... she'll shake her ass for us before we eat.

[hoots and catcalls]

Y los ladrones.

How long have we been hearing about their amazing exploits in El Norte, huh?

And their huevos de oro.

Well, tonight we feast on carne fresca, with a side of tripa de culebra!

[hoots and catcalls]

I told you.

Home sweet home.

Okay, look, you got bigger prob...

I got three.

But not for long.

Just listen to us.

This prison is being taken over, and the man who's behind it is gonna start a riot.

¡Perfecto! We love riots!

We have 'em all the time.

Don't we love riots?!

[inmates shouting]

You got your wish.

Madre de diós.

Seth: Exactly.

Wanna tell me how we're supposed to fight them?

Like we always do, just don't let them touch you!

Great.

¡Gente!

Don't let them fight alone! Go, go!

[Scott humming along]

Ugh.

[softly] A little too close.

Xibalban weapons.

Gonna take longer to heal.

Wonderful.

There're too many. We need a better strategy, guys.

Then let's not fight 'em.

At least not here.

What?

We double back to Venganza's, fight it out in that corridor.

That'll be a k*ll box.

It'll be a chokepoint.

[bestial growl]

[speaking Xibalban]

Carlos: That is how it begins.

Amaru's demons, controlling us.

Don't let this happen again.

And don't lecture me.

I was a sl*ve long before you.

And you escaped.

And you built this entire world, and for what?

So the sl*ve can become the sl*ve master?

I'm the monster.

You don't have to be.

Take us to the bones, and we'll destroy Amaru once and for all.

It's not that simple.

Do it, or this entire world becomes a prison.

I can't!

Why?

Because the only way this ends, it's in death. My death.

Venganza... will not escape.

That's what you said about Carlos and Santanico.

I need to walk in my own skin... and you keep failing.

Maybe it's all that ambition clouding your mind.

Go ahead, my Queen.

Consume my soul.

Promote General Tatuaje.

See how far that gets you.

Ranger Willet.

I told you I'd make the catch.

Now the question is, how much are you willing to pay for him?

And by payment, I do not, of course, mean money.

[speaking Xibalban]

Consider it done.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

So Brasa told you to sell me out.

Kinda glad you caught the Kn*fe.

It's gonna make this a whole lot easier.

This is some legit green you got here, man.

This is Xibalban seed, man.

Best cigars come from Cuba, right?

Yeah.

Best weed, from the Realm of Shadows.

Whoa. 'Tis trippy.

Can be.

But you need Xibalban banshee sh*t to fertilize it.

Ooh.

[instrumental music playing on radio]

How long you think he's been in there?

Who?

Oh, it is such a tough job being a Ranger.

Sometimes the pressure just gets to you.

[inhales deeply]

Yeah.

Nice kid, Ferdinand Gonzalez.

Couldn't keep his marriage together, couldn't stand livin' in Earl McGraw's shadow.

I'll be filin' the report.

How long you been selling out Peacekeepers?

He didn't tell you about the Place of Dead Roads?

I heard about it.

A bunch of Rinches k*lling Mexicans back in the day.

No, not just Mexicans.

Culebras.

He used to hang 'em up on crosses, wait for the sun to come up.

Watch 'em burn.

I like to think of us as a... bad ol' boys club.

[chuckles]

Place of Dead Roads.

Earl used to say that was the last stop before hell.

It is that, most definitely.

That's where the Queen had them tunnels built to.

Sweet little town of Matanzas, Texas.

Used to be hoppin'.

Matanzas.

We'll be ready.

Can't do much without them bones.

Bones?

You know, the Queen's.

You need the lady Lord to bring 'em, right?

I suppose so.

[chuckles]

Brasa didn't tell you, did he?

They've already got my family. I ain't worth nothin' to 'em.

What if I got you something bigger?

Bigger than a dead Peacekeeper.

I doubt you could deliver.

Never know till you ask.

Get him on the phone.

Tell him I have an offer.

[combat grunts]

Go, go, go!

Come on, we gotta go. They're gonna hit us again.

I need to heal.

Easy. Easy.

I lied to you.

About what?

About why I'm here.

Yeah, just forget about it. It's fine.

No.

When Manola d*ed...

I ran.

I ran. It was... I was pissed.

I had things to figure out, and...

I just kept on thinking about you.

What?

How you got the sh*t b*at out of you in that ring.

How you... kept on fighting for us... for the culebras who...

Well, I mean... the enemy of my enemy and all that sh*t.

Yeah. Yeah, well, I'm not gonna let you have all the fun taking 'em down.

That, uh, girlfriend of yours, you used to feed on her, without turning her, right?

Well, way I see it, we're at w*r with General Whatever-the-f*ck, right?

Consider it rations.

[low growl]

How about is in there?

Bad. And gettin' worse.

What? She needed to feed.

Smart.

You know, I haven't healed yet.

Not a chance.

So you brought the enemy to my door.

What's next.

What's next.

What's next is you tell us where the bones are.

Or you k*ll me?

There are no bones.

The Lords fed on Amaru, but they didn't just feed on her.

We consumed her. All of her.

The only way for Amaru to get her essence back is from the remains of the Seven Lords.

She wants your ashes.

That's why she k*lled all of 'em.

Richie: She was after the ashes.

Well, Your Eminence, it seems your value's just gone way up.

I might have to double my price.

[shouting voices approach]

Hah!

[exertion grunt]

Wow. Someone's been doing Tae Bo.

There's a f*ck-ton more where that came from.

Yeah, but this won't end until we get Tatuaje.

Is there another way upstairs?

That way.

All right, show me.

Mi amor, we have a score to settle.

General.

Come and fight for yourself.

I remember when you were a couple.

Oh, I remember, too. I'm just trying to forget.

Because you have no loyalty.

Not to this man, not to anyone.

Well, he's got a valid point.

Says the man who gets loyalty with tricks.

Such a lovely trick, and such a lovely diosa.

Him, I'm going to take apart again, but you... [faint chuckle] you are going to be mine in so many ways.

[shrieks]

[laughing]

Time to join the army, linda.

Hey, Tatuaje.

I want my money back.

[impact grunt]

[General Tatuaje groans]

I told you we still got it.

Amaru: I knew it.

All of that ambition.

And for what?

You want your place in the new realm?

You're useless to me.

Hold that thought, my Queen.

What is he doing here?

Rest of the team's mountin' up.

Carlito.

The Ranger just came back with some key intel.

Where the rest of this is goin' down: Matanzas, Texas.

It's about a hundred miles into the big nothin'.

Matanzas. Yeah, of course. I know it.

Why didn't you tell us?

It didn't occur to me. What does it matter? Now we know.

[chains clanking]

Venganza: Let me go!

What the f*ck are you doing?

If it's all the same to you...

I'll be taking Lord Venganza to the ceremony.

What ceremony?

The one where I get my wife and kid back.

You guys try anything, I'll put a stake in her chest.

Cisco Kid has lost his f*cking mind!

Don't do this!

You're making a huge mistake.

We'll see.
