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

I want you to be part of the business.

-Would you die for me?

-I'll survive for you.

What is this?

I never signed this paper.

Camila's trying to set you up to take the fall for her business.

I'm leaving Camila.

Starting off on my own.

Big britches you're trying to fill, girl.

I know the risks.

TERESA: You tried to set me up, but we can still make a deal.

The only deal that goes on here will put you in the grave.

(g*nsh*t)

(groans)

CAMILA: I picked you.

I housed you.

I protected you.

You k*ll Epifanio.

CAMILA: You're gonna watch the love of your life die a slow and painful death.

GUERO: (screaming)

Okay, he's not breathing.

Guero.

You k*lled the man that Teresa loved.

I'm here for a truce.

Teresa's business is stalled.

She needs my connection.

She's not gonna want your help.

She needs it.

And I certainly need hers.

CAMILA: It's the only way to save my daughter.

I can set up the introduction with the Colombians.

What do you want in return?

I want you to k*ll Cortez.

You need more men.

POTE: That's why we contacted Javier Jimenez, Boaz's cousin.

(suspenseful music)

I'm rolling the dice on you, Teresa.

Together we can win.

We will run Phoenix.

TERESA: We have a snitch.

POTE: You don't think--James?

I found the mole.

JAMES: I can't work for someone who keeps questioning my loyalty.

JAMES: Not after all we've been through.

I wanna help you take out Cortez and make sure you're secure, but then I'm out.

TERESA: They put a tracker in Guero's necklace.

Can we use this?

IVAN: To track someone?

Absolutely.

IVAN: Bueno?

TERESA: You have something I want, and I have something you want.

Let's make a deal.

♪ (indistinct chatter)

(dramatic music)

♪ The shipment looks good.

200 kilos, as promised.

50 are yours.

That's twice what we talked about.

You got into this business to help your tribe survive.

TERESA: If you agree to leave in five years, I'll double your pay until then.

♪ You have my word.

But I wouldn't count on the General's.

TAZA: And Cortez is slippery as a snake.

You have a deal with him now, but odds are it won't last.

You should take precautions.

♪ TERESA: How are you?

Things went smooth at the port.

That's not what I meant.

I buried Bilal at sea.

♪ That's what he would have wanted.

GEORGE: We both buried family in this w*r.

The ones we chose.

GEORGE: Feels harder.

-It does.

GEORGE: Cortez needs to die.

♪ Y'all find him yet?

♪ JAMES: This is a long sh*t.

JAMES: For all we know, Cortez found the medallion the second he laid eyes on Camila.

She could be lying dead in a ditch somewhere.

My family wouldn't shed a tear, and neither would Teresa.

Reynaldo Fieto would, he's the new connect.

So we need to keep an eye on Camila and make sure she's alive.

Entiendes?

♪ JAMES: We're getting closer.

If this works, we'll hit Cortez before he knows what's coming.

Is el Reynaldo in charge of your family?

He is.

For now.

Hey.

Let me be frank with you, Teresa.

It's okay.

CASTEL: Camila and Reynaldo are dinosaurs, the way they run their business.

I have connections in government.

With politicians.

Investments far beyond the realm of cocaine.

CASTEL: Your innovations with product and distribution, cryptocurrency-- You know a lot about my business.

CASTEL: Like I said, I have connections.

And that's my point.

Camila and Reynaldo, they...

They don't know technology like we do.

CASTEL: They're the past, and you and I, we're the future.

You didn't come all the way from Bogotá to praise me.

(dramatic music)

CASTEL: You struck a dangerous deal.

The only true way to power is v*olence.

And Cortez, he won't hesitate to use it.

He delights in it, like a child with a plaything.

He knows what's at stake.

He won't hurt Camila.

CASTEL: But he will harm you.

Look how easily I got to you.

My spies inside the General's organization say he's already planning it.

A strike against you is imminent.

♪ JAMES: There he is.

The tracker worked.
