Previously on Queen of the South

How do you feel about Miami?
What's not to like?
I would like you to run it.

René was like a son to me.

Whoever did this will pay.

Emilia's not here.

But I know where to find her.

I can't be honest with you.

There are things that you don't know and I can't see you anymore.

You don't mean this.

I do.

Judge came by my office today.

Teresa, he wants you dead.

I just want you to know.

I'm all in.

Lafayette k*lled Tony.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Teresa.

Was it Elias?
No.

It's a local matter that I'm handling.

Now that South Florida is secured, I would like you to introduce me to your cousin, Kostya, in New York.

Kostya is a very cautious man.

It's rare that he meets somebody face to face.

He doesn't trust people outside his circle.

I understand that.

I do not think you do, Teresa.

If Kostya pays you a surprise visit He's the last person you will ever see.

Set it up, please.

Yeah.

Respectfully, T.

rex, we just took over Miami.

Boaz's still working out the kinks.

We're on shaky ground there.

Why move so fast with the Russians?
Momentum.

If we expand with Kostya as our partner, we will be seen as strong.

Have we heard from Javier?
He's tying some loose ends.

It's just a couple more miles ahead.

You're the only person she wanted to talk to.

She tried to call you just before Randall pulled her from the truck.

It was Randall who k*lled her?
Does all the dirty work.

Why did they take Emilia?
My cousin René was m*rder*d.

They thought that she had something to do with it.

She was a good person.

She had nothing to do with that.

Whatever you wanna do to him He deserves.

Did you find my son?
Not yet.

Went by Mendoza's bar.

She's hired herself an army.

No quiet way to get to her unless we bring 'em all in.

Mendoza's smart enough to cover her ass.

And we have no idea what she's got on us.

Let's not poke the bear until we have to.

And when we do, we'll keep our hands clean.

Marcel will get the job done.

She won't see him coming.

I did come across something that might give us an edge on Mendoza.

Looks like she's got herself a new business partner.

Woman, two heavies never seen her before.

Interesting.

Get acquainted.

Show her some of our southern charm.

Happy to.

I know you want payback for your godson's m*rder, but I just wanna make sure that darkness isn't blinding you.

- Have you changed your mind?
- No.

But once we do this, there's no going back.

Teresa, we're all in this game.

We all got blood on our hands.

You k*lled Bobby.

I took Birdie.

You and I got past that.

Maybe you can do the same thing with the Judge.

He's kept us under his thumb for too long.

I'm done with that.

Aren't you?
Absolutely.

How you wanna do it?
Lafayette's dirty, but he's still a judge.

That means he can bring law enforcement down on our heads, and I'm not just talking local law enforcement.

Feds, DEA I know.

We can make his death look like a result of his own crimes.

Show the world who Lafayette really is a corrupt k*ller.

Once he's exposed, the cops and politicians in his pocket won't risk investigating his death.

Let's get on with it.

It's a good plan, Teresita.

We catch the Judge with his pants down.

He'll never see us coming.

He always seems to be a step ahead of us.

This time, he can't be.

We need to talk about George.

He's angry.

Thinks we let Dumas off the hook for Birdie's death.

We cannot have any loose cannons right now.

The hit on the Judge is dangerous enough.

I know.

I'll talk to him.

Maybe we should ask Boaz to send some backup from Miami.

No.

Miami's not settled.

Boaz needs his men there.

Any word on Javier?
Not yet.

Is it up here?
Yeah.

What do y'all want with me?
You don't have to be scared, Gina.

You know who I am.

Ms.

Mendoza's a close friend.

We want to make you an offer.

- Offer?
- Yes.

One of Ms.

Mendoza's men saw Judge Lafayette visit you.

Yeah, he comes to see me same time every Wednesday.

Good.

That's today.

Is he always alone?
I know Lafayette is very powerful.

He trusts me.

Kinda treats me like a pet.

I was doing time for solicitation.

The Judge got me out on early parole, so he lets me know every chance he gets that he can send me back whenever he wants.

You're a pet in a cage.

I hate him.

Gina, if you help us, all that money is yours.

This is your chance to get away from him.

We're offering you a new life.

We're gonna make it look like a drug deal gone wrong.

Gina.

Gina.

All you have to do is put this in his suit jacket.

Okay.

All right.

Pote will hide in your house.

Once Lafayette arrives, you need to make him comfortable.

Act like everything is normal.

Pote will take care of him.

Nothing will happen to you.

You promise?
Take the money and go as far away as you can.

You think she can handle it?
She'd better, or Lafayette's gonna come at us with everything he's got.

Hello?
Davis, buddy, where you been hiding yourself?
You can't just disappear on your daddy like that.

He's been worried sick.

I doubt that.

But he should start worrying.

Told that girl's boyfriend that you m*rder*d her.

I showed him where I showed him where the body is.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Okay, Davis.

- Slow down.

- No.

He has kept me drugged and tried to convince me that I was crazy.

He thinks he plays by different rules.

Not anymore.

Hang tight.

Oh, no.

Cecil, you are not gonna waste the little time we have talking business on your phone.

I do concur with your decision, baby.

Primo, what's up?
Better get your ass to Miami, cabrón.

Life is good here.

I'm on the next flight to New Orleans.

No, primo.

Javi What the devil's got into you?
Not that I'm complaining.

Dale!
Go!
So Dumas' men k*lled Birdie, huh?
I saw it on his face.

We were at w*r with them, George.

It's over now.

I need to know that you're focused.

It's not just about Birdie.

These Russians that you're trying to get in bed with they are the nastiest, most ruthless sons of b*tches that walk the Earth.

Are you sure you wanna take that risk?
There's only one way to be safe in this business to become powerful enough that no one can touch you.

So New York and the Russkis that's some kind of exit strategy?
It's also the center of finance, a place where we can become legitimate quickly.

Is it done?
Okay.

Pote missed.

- Close the bar.

- Oh, god damn it!
Toss the bar!
We rolled up the distillery.

No coke.

No g*ns.

No money.

Looks like she's in the wind.

Now, looks can be deceiving, especially with Mendoza.

Keep kicking rocks.

Roaches run from the light.

Okay, well, it isn't much to look at, but I figured that's kinda the point hide in plain sight.

- It's perfect.

- Great, okay.

Well, I rented out all the rooms so you won't have any lookie-loos, and your stuff is in room number 12 if you need to freshen up.

Thank you.

I'll take you there.

Okay.

Listen, Kelly Anne.

This w*r with Lafayette it's really bad.

I would like you to go and stay with Chicho's mom in Uptown.

I'm not going anywhere.

This is my family.

I know it is.

But Teresa needs your help with the business, not with a g*n.

Okay.

You be safe, you hear me?
I will.

Where you been, cabrón?
I know why the Judge tried to k*ll you, patrona.

Better start talking.

I k*lled René The Judge's nephew.

We got into a fight in the bathroom at the bar.

Hid his body in the trunk of his car Set it on fire.

Randall found some evidence.

He took Emilia.

She must have lied to protect me, patrona.

I think she told him you ordered the hit on René.

And they k*lled her.

You got Tony k*lled!
You almost got Teresa k*lled!
Now you will die, cabrón!
Wait!
Don't let this hijo de puta out of your sight.

Javier saved my life.

He risked his own trying to protect me.

He's been as courageous as James.

But he lied to your face.

And so did James.

He wasn't exactly a saint.

At least Javier he lied to protect the woman he loved.

I told you not to leave him alone!
Javi ain't running.

He's a cartel soldier.

He knows he disobeyed the boss' orders and lied to her to boot.

Look, he's good with whatever you decide.

We'll need him.

Lafayette is coming for us.

Not to mention Boaz runs Miami.

k*lling his cousin that's gonna set his hair on fire.

For now, he lives.

Dumas was right.

I should make peace with the Judge.

Ms.

Mendoza, what a coincidence.

You were just on my mind.

I know you think I ordered your nephew's death.

I didn't.

One of my men just confessed to k*lling René in a fight at my bar.

You'll forgive me if I find that hard to swallow.

You tried to k*ll me and k*lled my godson.

Both of us lost family.

I would like to try to find a way to put this behind us.

I'm open to mending fences once you hand your man over to me.

I won't allow that.

I've indulged you, Ms.

Mendoza.

I've let you and all the riffraff in your organization walk around my city like you belong here.

And it appears my reward for not showing you my teeth is you forgetting your place, little lady.

Well, let me tell you something.

If you don't hand over your man, I will hand you your head.

I don't respond to threats.

It's not a thr*at.

It's a promise.

Teresita, what you told the Judge is true.

Whether Javier lives or dies, it's up to you.

What do you wanna do, Teresita?
I've done everything Lafayette demanded.

I've paid him a lot of money.

If I do this now, where does it end?
He knows you're after him now.

He'll just keep hitting us.

Then we'll hit him harder.

- That means hitting cops.

- Dirty cops.

- Murderous thieves.

- Maybe.

But they're his own private army.

He runs this town.

Even if we win, we're gonna lose a lot.

They'll lose more.

Patrona.

This city has been our private Eden, Marcel.

Mendoza is an invasive species.

She's putting down roots.

You wanna cut her out.

I need your answer.

Are you with me?
Of course.

You're the devil I know.

You know where she is?
Yeah.

She's holed up with her people at a safe location.

Cedric and my crew they're sitting on her now.

- They'll help your boys out.

- No, Randall can handle it.

No.

I'm sorry, Judge.

I'm not taking any chances this time.

My boys'll make sure that nothing goes wrong with the hit on Mendoza.

This w*r ends today.

I did the recon.

Teresa Mendoza's here.

How many men are with her?
Four.

The place is isolated.

Only one way in or out.

- So we got 'em boxed in - And outnumbered.

Like sh**ting fish in a barrel, man.

Let's not start stroking each other just yet.

Get your boys together.

Fall back!
Fall back!
Dumas set us up!
He's running away!
Hey, we get 'em all?
Almost.

What the hell, man?
Hm?
Why'd you do Birdie that way?
Birdie?
I was just following orders, man.

Mm-hmm.

I'm a soldier, same as you.

Kay?
She was a civilian.

I know.

It was messed up.

See, but you do this, it all starts up again.

Okay?
It's Lafayette.

So now you're a cop k*ller, Ms.

Mendoza.

Those men weren't cops.

I learned early on how dangerous it is to underestimate you, hm?
So I bought myself a little insurance.

Do tell me.

Have you spoken to your Russian friend lately?
Say hello, darling.

Hello, Teresa.

They grabbed me from my hotel.

His cop sh*t two of my men.

Is the picture becoming clear now?
Do you know who she's connected to?
Oh, I have a pretty good idea.

They will hunt you down and k*ll you.

They don't care who you are.

And you'll be right there beside me, darling.

Mutually-assured destruction unless you give me my nephew's k*ller.

I expect an answer by midnight.

Patrona.

You know what you have to do.

Está bien.

It didn't have to be like this.

If you trusted me, I could've protected you, but now I can't.

Working with you, patrona I owe that to you.

Salud.

They're here.

Let them in.

Everybody just breathe easy.

Hands where I can see 'em.

You're not here as the law.

You know why I'm here, Ms.

Mendoza.

Let's put an end to all this.

I'll see you on the other side, brother.

I was right, patrona.

We were crazy to think we would have something different in this life.

Let's go.

Are you okay?
Yeah.

Oh, Davis, you had me worried sick.

You tracked my phone?
I know you're angry, but I forgive you.

You can come back home.

You forgive me?
You defied me, Davis, but you showed fortitude I didn't know you had.

- It gives me hope.

- Hope for what?
That you're more like me than I thought.

- Go to hell.

- Judge.

We need to wrap this up.

You were tricked, son.

Mendoza's man, the one you confided in he's the man who m*rder*d your cousin.

You're lying.

You'd say anything to me.

Mendoza handed him over to me herself.

He's the reason that sweet girl d*ed.

But don't you worry.

He gonna get what's coming to him.

Let's do this, pendejo.

What's he saying, Randall?
He's saying, "Let's do this, pendejo.

" Gotta admire a man who welcomes his own f*ring squad.

Nothing personal, amigo.

I actually kinda liked you.

Randall!
The sh**t-out in Metairie took the lives of six decorated officers, including the head of the anti-g*ng strike team, Detective Randall Green.

Police at this time are calling it a g*ng-related incident.

Randall is dead.

- Javier.

- Mm.

He fought to the end.

I'm sorry you were pulled into this.

I know how much this has cost you.

Do not think I am ungrateful.

The good news is that you have his attention.

The bad news is that you have his attention.

So we are in business with Kostya?
Yes.

For better or for worse.

Thank you.

The Judge is down, but he's not out.

As long as he's breathing, he's gonna be a problem for us.

If he loses his power, he's just a man.

Any man can be k*lled.

Dave?
My son.

Son?
Son?
Oh, God.

What have I done?
Taza said there's a new sheriff in Phoenix that's cleaning up corruption, so he's gonna need more money for bribes.

- Send it.

- Okay.

- How's Miami?
- It's a little bumpy.

Boaz had to dispose of a few dealers that were causing problems.

You were smart to keep extra men there.

What about the new bankers?
I'm still checking references, but I did make a list of new businesses to clean our money, and I'm looking into making an investment on the waterfront property as well as some commercial real estate.

Great.

Thank you.

Happy to help.

I'm gonna get to that meeting, but that suit is baller.

Thank you.

It's okay, Luis.

I heard there was an expl*si*n in front of your bar.

You okay?
Yes.

Thank you.

You know, they said you were in the hospital.

I was gonna come, but I wasn't sure you'd want me to.

I'm glad you didn't.

I spent the last month putting all the pieces together of what went down between you and me.

I know you're not just a bar owner or a tequila distributor.

Tell me the truth.

I run a drug cartel.

Are you serious?
Every minute you spend with me You're in danger.

I need you to go away.

Don't come back.

You lied to me.

Yes.

Everything else was it a lie too?
No.

Phoenix, Atlanta, Miami.

Now, New York.

We doubled our operation in three months.

That's a lot to keep an eye on.

Ain't no risk it, no biscuit.

You staying?
I'ma stick around.

Make sure you're good with the Russkis.

Hey, you might need me.

I know Chewy does.

Whatever you need to tell yourself, cabrón.

George, call a doctor.

My God, James.

What happened to you?
They're coming for you.
