TERESA: Previously on "Queen of the South"...

EL SANTO: Now you are one of us.

I shall expect the payment for the metric ton within the week.

My life is on the line with El Santo.

Not yours or Camila.

Look what we have here.

Camila Vargas, you're under arrest.

You walk out of here and never come back.

Princesa's dad is gonna kick me to the curb like basura.

(laughs)

Apparently your sicarios in Dallas tried to take Camila's life.

(g*nsh*t)

(g*nf*re)

The priority is to assure our associates that everything's well.

Give me one good reason I shouldn't back out of this right now.

It's an opportunity for both of us to expand our business.

Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale.

You got a street g*ng.

-Lil T.

-Teresa Mendoza.

These are the ownership documents filed for Camila's Trawler company.

TERESA: I never signed these papers.

-If she puts up a fight...

-Then k*ll her.

(g*nf*re)

(screams)

TERESA: In the morning, we're gonna go back to Dallas and take what's rightfully mine.

(goat bleats)

EL SANTO: (chanting)

(shouts)

(somber music)

(children speaking Spanish)

EL SANTO: (singing)

Teresa Mendoza...

Teresa Mendoza...

Teresa Mendoza.

(chanting continues)

(speaking Spanish)

♪ TERESA: I brought the two of you together for a reason.

Thank you for allowing us to meet here.

You know, I heard legends about you for years.

Kid burst up outta nowhere like a g*dd*mn Roman Candle.

Carvin' out an empire with nothin' but his big-sized-brain and certain amount of elegant v*olence.

I'll admit, I was curious to meet you as well.

You disappeared a competitor of mine out of South Africa a few years ago, as I came to deliver a bit of "elegant v*olence." I'd love to hear how you did that...

after Ms.

Mendoza tells us what's on her mind.

I'm leaving Camila.

Starting off on my own.

I would like to keep working with both of you.

She ain't exactly one for flowery speeches, huh?

No, she's not.

Nothing has to change.

The deal remains the same.

Big britches you're trying to fill, girl.

There ain't no trial run on this.

I know the risks.

DEVON: But do you know the consequences?

If you do succeed, you will be responsible for more than just your own life.

The burdens of leadership are not small.

I understand that.

And I understand the business up to this point has been unstable.

Profits will continue, but the drama will end.

What's your POV on this, Chewy?

Everyone has a right to the throne.

If they can take it.

Fortunately for you, the appetite for your Bolivian connection seems unquenchable.

As long as you have El Santo's product, you have me.

I have it.

The deal remains the same.

I'll sell it to you, and no one else.

You'll receive details for the pickup and delivery tomorrow.

Thank you.

I can feel your eyeballs on me.

(chuckles)

You haven't given me your answer.

It ain't what you're looking to hear, baby girl.

I'ma have to think on it.

Took heavy losses when that Jimenez fellow disrupted our shipment.

Thinking maybe smuggling g*ns and ganja might be just enough for little ol' me.

You know the profit on g*ns-- Don't you try and math me.

That g*n goes for 50K right there.

And that's just one.

You think this is about money, girl?

I'm truly sorry for your loss.

Me too.

And I'd like to keep my boys fat and happy.

And a whole lot less dead.

You're making promises that you cannot back up to dangerous men, Teresita.

That's how you get k*lled.

If I don't pay El Santo, I'm dead.

Camila has the cash and the coke.

You got nothing.

That's why we need to get it.

Camila's facing federal charges.

They're gonna have to move the coke out of the country as soon as possible.

We must steal it back before they do.

Oh!

You want to rob Camila Vargas?

I need that product.

Not only to pay El Santo.

It means freedom.

It's only you and me.

We don't have the muscle to go against James or Camila's men.

That's why we can't do it alone.

(foreboding music)

♪ CAMILA: Teresa was a stray mutt when I met her.

I brought her into our family, let her sleep under my roof...

Well, what did you expect after she called the DEA to "save" you?

Once someone's in bed with the feds, you can't ever trust them.

You tried to warn me.

I should've listened.

I opened my arms to that girl and she spit in my face.

Let her die in the cold with the other dogs.

Sometimes dogs try to return home even after the door is closed.

Well then, make sure there's no food in the house.

Do you understand?

And James...

they're transferring me tonight to a maximum security facility.

I heard it's gonna be a beautiful evening.

I want to see the sky.

My name's Teresa Mendoza.

I think we can help each other.

How come you ain't talking to Los Treintas?

Last time I checked, you got those pussies running for you.

Los Treintas works with Epifanio.

You working for Camila?

I was.

But I'm on my own now.

She has something of mine.

I need help taking it back.

-What?

-Cocaine.

Going up against the cartel is serious sh*t.

What you offering?

The Vargas and Jimenez Cartel consolidated in one cartel.

Your enemies are united.

You're gonna need real firepower to protect your people.

I have something that you need.

-g*ns.

-And product.

Work with us, we arm your men for the fight you know is coming.

Plus, you get 10% of the profit of the product that you help us get back.

-We get the g*ns first?

-Yes.

You got balls.

But if this sh*t is true, then...

the enemy of my enemy is my homie, right?

That's some serious cash you're offering for a little muscle.

TERESA: I believe in a fair deal.

All right.

You get us the g*ns...

we'll help you get your coke.

♪ I told you, I don't want to hear anymore about it, Isabela.

Papi, she needs our help.

Please.

You may think you know your mother, Bela, but I know that woman better than you should ever hope to.

You want her to bend, to change, but she's made of the hardest steel, my love.

We will break before she does.

And I won't watch that happen to you.

She's better right where she is.

You had me fooled, Papi.

You told me what you went through as a kid.

I thought that kind of struggle makes someone's heart bigger.

But you're a small man.

How dare you talk to me like that?!

You never struggled one day in your life.

-I saw to that.

-You don't think I struggle?

You don't think I'm in there with her?

That she didn't leave me too?

Are you that blind?

-Isabela!

-Don't.

I'm staying with Olivia at her family's ranch, and I'm not coming home until Mom does too.

- Well, enjoy your stay.

Like mother, like daughter!

Spoiled and pigheaded!

I gave you that beautiful life, Bela!

And it can all be taken away!

Just ask your mother!

I need g*ns, and I need them fast.

(laughs)

Something tells me you ain't taking up skeet sh**t'.

It's business.

(chuckles)

My daddy k*lled all these animals.

Every single one.

Even Timothy here.

What kind of man kills a g*dd*mn beaver?

I don't know.

Not a happy one.

I'll tell you that much.

He d*ed sad, alone, and empty.

And rich as sh*t.

I'm not doing this to get rich.

That's a story a lot of people tell themselves at first.

How about this-- I got an open slot on my crew.

Been a while since we had a squaw in our tribe.

You could be my Pocahontas.

(laughs)

Or maybe I'll be your Pocahontas.

We could figure that out along the way.

Thank you.

But we both know I have to do this.

What's in it for you, really?

Is it revenge?

That's what you want?

There's a better way of doing business than the way Camila does.

And I know you believe that too.

We move at 8:00.

All this product and cash, it can stay for now.

But I want our best men on guard, 24/7.

I'm gonna check to make sure everything's in position.

TERESA: The coke and cash from Devon's first payment is at the warehouse.

But security's doubled.

Okay, we have some time now.

We need to get to the location George gave me.

James' man won't move the product without him there.

But we don't know how long he'll be gone.

We have no choice.

Once I get the g*ns to Big T, we'll have the muscle we need.

You're giving g*ns to thugs.

That's a stupid decision, Teresita.

Trust needs to be earned.

I didn't have to trust you, but I did.

And if you hadn't sent Guero away, we would have someone better helping us.

You thought I didn't know.

Guero and I were planning to escape.

Then you talked to him.

He needed to go.

That wasn't your decision to make.

I was trying to keep you safe.

If I don't do this, El Santo will k*ll me.

You should know better than making a deal with a psychopath.

Would you question Camila like this?

You are no Camila.

Look, if you're not gonna help me, please leave.

I'll take care of myself.
