Hey, Jose, when you're driving around in this taco wagon, you think you're going

to be deported.

Okay, culero.

Yeah.

Culero.

Chingadera. No mames. Tres chingaderas.

Tres maracones. No mames, wey.

Fascinably late, Earl.

Helen. Helen. Helen.

You look sensational.

Sensational. You look pretty good yourself. Long time.

I brought you a little something from our latest cultivar. Oh, you charming

devil. This is lovely.

Hi.

Tim Kennedy.

God. Love and breathe.

What? I thought you were dead.

No sense of luck, I guess.

Let me tell you something.

Did anyone ever tell you you're a bit of an asshole?

All the time, even in Spanish.

Okay. Well, ladies, you're on the wrong floor.

Third floor is the beauty pageant.

It's literally so easy. My niece set this up for me. You just click one

and you can buy whatever you want. With one click from home, you get a choice of

everything on our line. All the information is sent, and the flowers

you just two days later.

The first person to sign up gets a 20 % discount off their first order.

Internet. There you go.

All right.

Here you get some.

Take these.

Oh,

you're most welcome. You're most welcome.

You're most welcome.

Yes, ma 'am.

Is that Jimmy Stewart?

And now, what we've all been waiting for, the NDL 2005 gold medal winner

Earl Stone!

No booing,

thank you very much. And rather than give a long, boring speech, I just

to tell you a little joke. And that's, why did the horticulturist... Walk

the hotel lobby.

Because he wanted to get to the bar. And that's exactly where I'm headed.

Thank you.

Where is he?

He'll be here, right? Don't hold your breath, honey.

Grandpa Earl will be here. He promised.

Oh, my poor girls.

Well, he'll be here. It's my wedding day.

I love you, Iris. I do.

But you have to face facts.

Your father has always chose work over family. He missed your baptism, your

confirmation, your graduation, countless birthdays, not to mention most of our

anniversaries.

I think I'm going to be sick.

Who's going to give Mommy away?

Oh, well...

I have another one that we love here. Another Crown Royal Earl?

In fact, get the whole bar.

Them too?

The wedding party?

Them too.

All right.

There you go, Amigos.

Sorry it couldn't be more.

Damn internet, it ruins everything.

So what are you going to do?

I don't know. I've never been a plan B type of guy.

Thank you.

I'll find something.

Hey, Jenny.

You look wonderful. I knew you'd make it to the pre -wedding brunch.

I'm so excited.

Is everything okay?

Oh, yeah. Don't worry about that. That's just a minor setback.

You'll be just fine.

Well, come on in. I don't care what they say. You're always welcome. Come on.

You first.

I just got to grab something inside, then I'll introduce you to everybody.

Oh, my God.

You saved all my cards.

Ever since the first one you sent me when I was nine.

Corn palace?

Um, okay.

I want you to meet Mike, okay? He's my fiancé. Don't forget. Fiancé, yeah.

Okay fiancé.

Is this okay?

Mom! Jesus.

I'm sorry, sweetie. I can't

stay if he's here.

I'll wait in the car, Mom.

No, honey.

Honey.

Oh,

well, of course.

You're not here because of the wedding. No, no. You're here because you have

nowhere else to go again.

And you promised Jenny you'd help pay for the wedding. It's fine, Grandma. We

can just make it BYOB. No, it's not fine. It's never been fine.

Why don't you knock on his deep shed?

Just stop it.

Come back doing the same old shit all the time.

How dare you come in here and make all this fuss right here in front of me?

Because you weren't there for your own daughter, and now you're letting down

your granddaughter?

But it's no big surprise. You know why? Why? You were never a real father or a

husband. I was on the road 60 hours a week to provide for this family.

What the hell are you talking about?

On the road providing? Ha!

You know what you do? You play with your friends.

You sit around and hand each other trophies for watching. watching seeds

Mr. Daylily.

Jimmy, come here, please.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.

It's okay, Grandma. Thank you. Oh, I'm so sorry, darling.

They did the alterations. I'll see you next week, sweetheart.

Thank you, Grandma.

I'm sorry, darling. I'm sorry.

I'll be gone.

Goodbye.

Itch.

Hey, man.

Weddings make everyone crazy.

Always some kind of drama.

Yeah, you got that right.

Looks like you covered some ground in your day.

Yeah.

41 states out of 50.

Never had a ticket, nothing. Just drive.

Never had a problem.

This whole truck is great.

Got a good record.

No tickets, huh?

Nuh -uh.

Never had one.

Never in my life have I ever had one.

My grandpa was a real road warrior, too.

He loved to drive.

Yeah. Well, let's hear it for Gramps.

I'm Richard.

Rico.

I'm a friend of one of Jenny's bridesmaids. Yeah, okay, Rico. My name's

Hey, Earl, you know, if you're really stuck, I know some people who will pay

to just drive.

One city to another.

Pay me to just drive?

What do you get out of it, Slick?

All I'm saying is, I have friends looking for cautious drivers like you.

Yeah.

You can help your granddaughter.

All righty.

Just drive.

Okay. All right.

Hola, I'm Earl.

Hola, hola, Earl.

What do you want us to cut the compartment, huh?

Under the seat?

The wheel well?

Do what to the compartment?

Cut up your truck.

What are you talking about?

Cutting up the... Look, nobody's going to cut up this truck, understand?

Put whatever you want right back there, next to the golf clubs. It'll be safe.

No problem.

Are you crazy, man?

You're fucking crazy, huh?

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm crazy.

Me too.

Take it.

What's this?

You answer this day or night.

But you don't call anyone.

When you get to the drop, someone will text you.

Text?

You know how to text?

Hold on to the phone.

If it rings, you answer.

Here.

When you get to the hotel, park your truck.

Put the keys in the glove compartment.

Then come back in an hour.

Your money will be in the glove compartment with the keys.

Do you understand?

Yes.

I understand what would happen if somebody steals the money.

Or my truck.

No one will fuck with it.

We got eyes everywhere, viejito.

Oye, viejito.

Do yourself a favor.

Don't look in that bag.

You might think you can identify it.

Or know about this tire shop.

But don't forget.

We know who you are.

Good day. I ain't gonna look in anybody's bag.

Oh, papa.

Thank you Welcome

to

the team agent Bates.

Thank you, sir.

Go ahead and have a seat

So, how's your family adjusting to the move? Do they like the city?

I'm assuming you don't want the truth.

No.

Listen, you made some big cases in New York and D .C., and I'm expecting you to

do the same thing here. Yes, sir. Good.

No one wants to sit through these long Chicago winters, but we got crime coming

out of our ass.

That's how you get out of here.

Work hard, make cases, make busts, make your name.

Then maybe you can move on.

That's the best news I've heard all week.

Good. Now, get out there and make a splash, Special Agent.

Yes, sir.

Agent Bates.

Agent Trevino. Yes, sir. Pleasure. So, I'll be your number one.

Yeah, I heard.

Yeah. It's an honor.

How are you feeling?

I feel good. Ready to make a big splash?

He says that to everybody. Yeah, he does.

That's all right.

So, your office is out here to the right.

Well. I'm not going to spend too much time there. Hopefully not.

Jesus, like the Star Wars canteen in there.

Yeah, where all the homies hang out.

It doesn't look like a TED Talks.

It's my kids.

He helps me pack. You got kids?

Yeah, five of them.

Five? How do you make them work in a job like this?

We just make it work.

Ah, the plot pins.

Why's that? This is our guy.

Yeah.

You did good.

I'm supposed to tell you to call this number anytime you need work, all right?

Here you go.

No, no, no, no. This is just a one -time deal for me.

I'll tell you what, man. Why don't you call us if you change your mind, you

what I'm saying?

Here you go. Take the number.

Here.

Why don't you save that for a rainy day?

Yeah, a rainy day, okay?

All right, let's go. Come on. Let's move it up out of here.

All right.

All right.

Everybody's on their cell phone.

Becoming an epidemic.

What do you think you're doing?

Who the hell are you guys? My name is Special Agent Colin Bates. This is Agent

Trevino with the Drug Enforcement Administration, and you're Luis Roca.

And we're here to save your life.

I beg your pardon?

We're going to make sure your cartel doesn't know you're working for the DEA.

I'm not working for the DEA.

No, but that's what they'll think if you don't, so welcome aboard.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I like the Tahitian pearl.

It's got, like, a nice sheen.

Think about it, Luis.

I've got a warrant to search your house.

What? Yeah, we'll see you there.

We'd just like to take a moment to say thank you.

Mom, I love you.

I love you so much.

Grandma Mary, thank you so, so much for everything that you've done.

And to my Grandpa Earl, who brought the flowers, of course, and covered the

open bar.

You look lovely tonight.

It's kind of funny, a granddaughter getting married, and we worried all

years about her finding Mr. Right.

Earl, why do you think you could just sit down and expect me to forget about

past and reminisce about old times?

Ten good years.

We can still be civil.

Care to dance?

You always liked this tune.

I do.

No, I can't. I just can't.

I can't.

I see you're still into your flower.

I never understood how you could spend so much time and money on them.

I love them.

I mean, they're unique.

They just bloom one day and that's the end of it.

They deserve all the time and effort.

So did your family.

Damn.

Way to go.

Badass right there.

You ride nice.

Yeah. Badass is right.

Yeah. Beautiful.

The old one finally quit on me.

Hey, Earl.

Got a little present for you.

Oh, what's in that?

Your holly, old man. Your cargo.

Yeah.

Hey, what's going on, Big Papa? Yeah, good.

Just everything good. I'm just on the road again.

You're King Pimpin', huh?

Uh -huh, yeah.

Kind of like that.

Yeah? Same as before.

It rings, you answer, day or night.

Yeah, well, you know, I've got this other one from before, too.

Oh, yeah? Let me see.

Yeah.

Yeah. Ah.

Hey, that was a perfectly good phone. What's going on?

Earl, you throw your phone away when your run is done.

I don't suppose you learn how to text yet either, huh?

I can text.

I'll be able to.

Next time you see me, I'll be texting.

Texting my brains out.

Okay, good, Abuelito.

Okay.

Earl. Yeah.

Hang up how it was before.

Yeah. in a hotel.

I'll be there.

1980s shovelhead.

I ran one of those things under the ground.

It'll probably be the relay, son.

What do you call a son?

Oh, you're a gal, son.

Gals? Come on, old -timer. We're dykes on bikes.

Oh, shit.

Okay, well.

So, you think that's the issue, the relay?

It's a good early check.

It'll be the relay.

Thanks, Pop.

You're welcome, Dyke.

Think about our offer, amigo?

Uh, no.

And, uh, I'm Filipino, not Mexican.

Oh, that's a good thing. It'd be harder for the cartel to get to your family.

Why do you think I'd work for you guys?

I mean...

We found drugs, $425 ,000 in cash, and three unlicensed firearms in your house.

So, I mean, that's a start.

Not to mention fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, state and federal drug laws

are broken.

I mean, conservatively, I'd say you're looking at back -to -back life

And I'm no psychic, but looking at your manicured nails and your exfoliated skin

and your scented candles, I don't think you're going to fare too well in prison.

No, that's definitely bitch material.

You'd be somebody's girlfriend in a day.

You wouldn't like that, would you?

And that's before the cartel gets to you.

So what do you think, Louise? Are we going to be friends?

What do I do?

Just do your job, go back to work, be a good cartel employee, and answer my

calls day and night.

Okay, good.

The foreclosure will be canceled with your reinstatement payment plus late

and incidentals.

You said you had cash?

Yeah.

Right here.

Okay.

What the hell happened here? Fire?

Yeah, in the kitchen.

Nobody got hurt.

Oh, good.

I'll have pancakes then.

Yeah.

Unfortunately, the insurance company is jerking us around. We might not see any

money for years.

Yeah.

Oh, I've been coming here since 58.

This place is like an institution. I don't know what the hell the vets are

to do.

Sunday night poker parties.

No more meat raffles.

What the hell? Pretty soon there'll be no more VFW.

Yeah, I guess so. Well, that is unless...

Unless somebody's got an extra 25K laying around.

I do, I do, I do. Bienvenido, Senor Earl.

Welcome back.

Oh, thank you, thank you. What's up, big fella?

Oh, not too much, not too much. Same old, same old.

Just on the highway.

What's going on?

Look at this.

Wow.

What's in that? That's big.

Don't worry about it. Chico, let's do this.

Earl? Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

It rings.

You do what?

That's my man. Okay. I got you. Remember, con cuidado when you drive.

safely. Okay.

Drive safely. All right.

Okay.

Keep your eyes open.

All right. All right.

Okay.

Need help, sir?

Oh, officer, hi.

You need any help?

No, no, I'm fine, thank you. What do you got there?

Pecans. I'm delivering pecans to my niece.

Pecans? Yeah, pecans. She'd make the worst pecan pie you've ever tasted.

I feel sorry for her husband, and I feel sorry for the pecans, too.

I don't know what's wrong with him now, but this dog has to pee every 15

minutes.

I'm sorry, sir. I'm going to have to ask you not to touch the end.

Oh, I'm sorry, officer.

It's okay. I had no idea. I'm sorry.

My Dookie, I miss him so much.

Dookie, you know, the Dookie, just one of those dogs that everybody loves.

Drive safely, sir. Okay.

You can go now.

Thank you. You can do a great Jimmy Stewart, by the way.

Let me explain something, Louise. For you to get into Witness Protection,

going to have to prove your value.

We win, you win.

So we're going to go on a little sightseeing tour, see what kind of value

can offer.

You understand?

Yeah. Good.

Got your latte.

This is where it starts. Not just here, but dozens of hotels across the city.

Mules come in from various locations, loaded, leave their vehicles.

Someone takes the vehicle, removes the load, and returns it with the mule's

payment.

121, there's a guy outside.

What's going on here?

121 is ours.

He's just there to make sure that they keep an eye on the vans that come in and

out.

What else?

Hey. Oh.

Alright, just settle down, bud.

I say thank you.

It's not often that you hear a lot of thanks for those who gave.

And to remember those who won't return.

It's our patriotic duty to honor those who serve and give to the praise that

you deserve.

Oh, it's a day to say.

I say thank you.

All right. How about putting your hands together and make a little bit of noise

for Molly B and her punker band.

And a nice thank you for Earl Stone.

Fix the ice skating rink up at the old rec center.

Pull.

He has no record. He has no traffic tickets.

I need you to travel with him to monitor him because he could become our top

mule. Monitor him, you mean babysit, no? Más o menos.

¿Qué te pasa?

Nada. Are you tired of being the top guy? Because I can ask Gustavo here.

always eager to step up. No, no, no, no. No, I got it. Bueno, ándale pues.

Quítame la carita esa que tienes.

That's how my tata goleo.

It won't be too bad. You can always take foul.

Fool!

Who are

you? The boss sent me.

I'm your handler.

I'm going to be with you the whole trip.

Look, uh... We're the boys. We're the fellas here.

Never mind the feathers.

Listen to me.

You've been entrusted with a very valuable cargo, and I don't trust you.

You do as you're told.

Take the routes I say.

No unauthorized roads, no unexpected stocks.

My schedule, my timetable. Is that clear?

You sure you're Mexican?

You're playing like you're the juror or something like that.

Uh -huh. Yes. Show me your papers at the border.

Yes. I'll show you my papers. Here are my papers.

Don't underestimate how seriously I take my work, Mr. Stone.

I've been in combat before.

I'm not intimidated by you, Mercoso.

Hey, Tata.

How's it going?

It's going good.

A little bit too long on the road and everything.

But it's okay.

How's your nephew?

Doing a lot better. Thank you for asking. Gracias.

All right.

Hey, what's up, big papa?

All right.

I was okay with the little letters and stuff.

But you see, when I come around the numbers... Yeah, that can help you with

that. Easy.

Mira. You press on this icon here. See that? Yeah. And it takes you back.

Pay attention now.

Emilio. Julio. ¿Qué chingados están haciendo? ¿Qué está aquí?

Is this package ready?

Sí. Then why are you standing around?

He just pulled in. I don't care. Load the truck now.

What's up, Pepito? How's your lady?

Now, let's go.

Move.

Great, my commandant.

Very good. Shut up. Shut up.

Muse don't talk.

Somebody ought to cool his ass down.

Okay, Minapaki, pay attention.

You click on the icon here, right? Numbers pop up. You see that? Yeah.

Then you just type 7 -7 -1.

Joy.

Drive.

Easy. That's the drop site.

I think I got it.

I think I got it. Let's go.

We're running late. Let's go. Let's go. Move. Vamos.

Suerte. Okay.

Come on. We don't have all day, pinche dinosaurio. All right.

That's right. Shoot the motherfucker.

I will.

Ain't that a key to the head?

The rumor had come completely flat.

I hugged her and she hugged me back.

Like the sailor sets sail.

And I roll and roll.

My head keeps spinning.

I close the tape and keep grinning.

Sun shining up to spread.

How you folks doing?

Not so good. We got a flat.

A flat tire?

Yeah. And my husband isn't too handy, so.

Didn't your daddy teach you how to change a tire?

No. That's why I'm Googling it. I don't have any reception.

Yeah, well, that's the trouble of this generation.

If you can't open a fruit box without calling the Internet.

Anyway, you want a hand? I'll give you a hand.

We'll get the tire out.

We'll fix it up.

Yeah.

All right. Tire's in there. Great.

Okay. Keep going.

Okay.

Here we go. Okay.

There it is. Yeah.

Good, helping the Negro folks out.

Negro? Sir, we don't say that. Yeah, we prefer black or just people. Yeah, I'm

black, you're white.

No shit.

Yeah, no shit.

Okay, let me give you a hand. I'll take the jack, you get the tire. All right.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, nice.

How lucky can one guy be?

I kissed her and she kissed me.

Like the fella once said, ain't that a kick in the ass?

The room was completely black.

Tata, where are you going? The hotel is right up here!

Move!

Hey!

Move! Hey!

Move! Okay!

Where are you going?

Who the fuck are you, Ruko?

I'm Earl.

Earl?

Earl who?

I don't know any fucking Earl.

They're on the driver.

What the

fuck

are you doing here, old man?

I'm just bringing in my load, that's all.

But you're not supposed to be here.

Well, the address is right here. Look.

It's 771 Joy Drive.

Okay, just don't do it again.

Who the fuck are you, pendejo?

I'm his handler.

Then handle him.

He ain't supposed to be here.

I'll take care of it.

Who sent you here? Who gave you this address?

I don't know. He was a big guy.

Mexican -looking guy. He had tattoos all over. Very scary.

At least to this gringo.

Okay, that could be anyone I know.

What's his name?

I don't know his name. What do I look like?

Alexander Graham Bell? I don't even know anything about texting and all this

shit. I don't know who his name is. Okay, okay. They all look the fucking

You're a real pain in my ass, you know that?

I'm going to go see a proctologist.

Don't bother me. Stop. Where are you going?

My pecans are in there.

Fuck the pecans. Let them do their job.

What's up?

Okay, slow down. What did he do?

What did he do?

He stopped wherever he wants.

He doesn't follow my instructions. He doesn't do what I tell him to do.

Yesterday, he stopped to see an old friend. I'm just going to kill him.

Slow down. Slow down. Listen to me. Listen to me. He moves his own way. He's

been successful.

If he changes his route, it's probably better for us because then he's less

predictable. You understand me?

But we don't oblige the other drivers like this. You need to oblige me.

Understood?

Yeah, understood.

Stay with him.

Make him feel at home.

Other than that, how you doing?

I'm fine.

Okay, do your job.

What do you got?

I'm taking all the risk here. If they found out that I'm talking to you guys,

I'm dead.

Maybe don't work with drug dealers.

Got you a latte.

Feel better?

So what do you got for us?

I don't know if I should be doing this. Oh, what do you got?

What's this?

It's a freight manifest.

What is this, a code?

Symbol has featured a mule.

along with symbols for their routes, dates, and cargo loads.

This is the new drug mule, Tata.

New guy, he's delivered 121 kilos in April, 172 kilos in May, and then like

232 kilos in June.

This guy's nickname's Tata?

Is that right? Yeah, yeah, that's Tata.

That's good.

Good work.

I'm just going to need to document this.

I got to get that back before they know it's gone, though.

So if I can just take it. It's going to take a second, so just relax.

You play hard to get for a snitch.

And you end up snitching anyway.

I just need to... Think about who else you can snitch on while you're waiting.

Reflect on that.

I'm showing my worth though, right? You did great.

Here we go. Thank you.

Dang me, dang me, hang me, ought to take a rope and hang me, hang me from the

highest tree.

We need to trust them. What else are we going to do? We have no other choice.

What are we going to do, man? What are we going to do?

We can tell him how to drive, man. But not like this. How are you going to tell

him how to drive? He's 90 years old.

Relax,

man. Latón knows what he's doing. He hired him for something.

Mom keeps looking at us.

Well, that's because they see two beaners and a bowl full of crackers.

Why are we here?

This is the best pulled pork sandwich in the whole Midwest, that's why.

Not bad, huh?

See, what you got to do is take more time out. Like this.

Enjoy life.

Like I do.

Maybe.

Maybe you enjoyed the moment a little too much.

Had too much fun.

That's why you're working for us now.

Best pulled pork sandwich in the whole wide world.

No more stopping, Dada.

You stay en route.

Losing my patience.

What's your business here?

Me? Hablan inglés?

I ain't gonna ask you again.

What's your business in my town?

Officer. Officer.

I can vouch for these fellas.

They're actually working for me. You know this guy?

Yeah, he did.

I got him down at Home Depot. They came out here, and they've been helping me

move. Great job. A lot cheaper than the moving company, I'll tell you that.

Terrific job.

Yeah, could you come over here for a second? There's something very important

want to show you behind this truck right here.

Really important.

Really important.

You'll love this.

I went to a charity, and I got this caramelized corn, and it was really

stuff. You can't accept this kind of stuff.

Oh, you'll be doing me a great favor.

I've got diabetes. I can't have it.

They love it down at the station.

And the gals at the charity, they'll love it too.

Thank you for helping me, sir.

All right, sir.

I'm very big on law enforcement.

Very supportive.

We appreciate what you do.

Our numbers are down, Special Agent. Yes, I realize we're down. The numbers

don't reflect the actuals and will be adjusted by the end of the day. Yes,

Fix them and send them over. Yes, sir.

Today.

Yes, sir.

What?

Cartel's top mule's on its way to a drop.

So we know the route, we know it's a black pickup, it's a needle in a

but at least it's a start.

How do we know this?

Phone tap.

They thought their mule was in an accident. Turns out it was a pickup on

Interstate 55.

What did they do to him?

9 p .m. That puts us five hours out.

So if we have local law enforcement stop vehicles with that description and do a

random road check, we can get this guy without tipping off the cartel. This is

the guy you think is moving over 100 kilos into Chicago a month?

Mm -hmm.

100 kilos is what the seller's considering. We're only confiscating

month.

Is that a yes or a no?

Yes.

But I want but, Aiden Payne.

My name is Pacho Villa.

I got the gonorrhea.

I got it from Maria.

She gave it to me free. Now I cannot be alive.

You so ugly.

You so ugly.

You so ugly, child.

Oh, congratulations, my friend.

About what?

You just broke the record.

Really? Yeah, 282 kids in one load.

Oh, my God.

Okay.

The man boss is really happy about this.

Yeah. He wanted to meet you. Did he? Did he? Okay.

Beautiful. Thank

you.

That one.

Welcome to Mexico, Mr. Stone. Hi, Mr. Latone.

Who do you have to kill to get a place like this? Oh, many, many people. I

it's really beautiful.

Thank you. My, my.

It was your pleasure.

What would you like?

I'll have a double.

How was the flight? Good?

You know, it was really good. Really good. A little bumpy and everything, but

not too bad. Let me show you around. It was good.

Don't hurt yourself.

Well, I want to introduce you to somebody.

Okay. Oh, yeah. We'll do that.

How are you?

Hey. Hello. Hello.

Thank you.

Thank you, too.

I want you to take good care of Earl tonight, okay? Tuck him in and stay with

him. Make him feel good.

Of course.

Don't hurt yourself, Tata.

I won't.

Oh my god.

Beautiful. Oh yeah.

You can make it. Huh?

I hear it.

Very cool.

I love it.

Hello, my Mia.

Wow, what do we have here?

Oh, you guys having some fun?

Yeah.

Relaxing a little bit.

I think we'd rather have fun.

Heart medicine wouldn't hurt.

Okay,

let me grab these lights for you.

I need to call a cardiologist.

Dr. Clark.

It's a lot for the party.

Yeah. You having fun?

Yeah, I am. Yeah, you are.

I saw you. I was having fun all right.

I've been looking for you. For me? I was looking for you, yeah. Oh, yeah?

Yeah, I thought I'd give you a little advice.

You're giving me advice?

Yeah, yeah.

I pass.

I think you ought to quit.

Quit what?

Quit this.

Quit what? Quit here. These people don't give a crap about you.

You know, you could quit, find something you really love to do, and then go

after it.

Wait, wait, wait. What are you talking about?

Let me tell you something, okay? This is my family. This is my home.

Yeah. Okay? He pulled me from the streets. I was nobody. I was nothing.

He gave me everything, and here I'm somebody.

Yeah. Yeah.

So what are you talking about?

Well, hey, I was just...

It's just an idea, you know. No, no, wait.

No, no. What are you going to do? I'm going to go up to my room.

There I'm somebody.

No one wants to tip off the cartel, but we have to show some kind of progress

for this case.

But you're talking about a PR stunt.

In Arlington, there's a table of administrators sitting around just like

Only they're wondering what the hell we're doing.

And if maybe someone else wouldn't be more...

Hmm.

You need bust, Agent Bates.

Well, there's an alleged stash house that might be getting shipped in the

couple of days.

That's more like it.

Possible bust.

Good. Have to look like local PD, though.

To the cartel.

Our report will reflect it's from our operation.

Do it.

But I want bust.

You heard the man.

That's tricky.

Splish splash.

That's been an order?

Yeah, nobody shoot me.

That's absolutely necessary.

It's your show, Captain. The door is here.

Gentlemen, you heard the man.

Business as usual.

Weapon's hot.

Well, we got what they wanted, I suppose.

Yeah. Two nobody illegals and a few bags of coke to lay out for the press. Guess

now I can retire.

Glam Cosmetology welcomes the friends and family of our graduates.

Thank you so much for being here today to honor these lovely young men and

who are following...

You're not glutton for punishment.

I'll have you know, I was invited.

What are you wearing?

It's just a gold bracelet.

You like it?

What are you doing here?

I'm just trying to make up for lost time.

And I do feel that education is important.

Well, thank God she finally scrounged up enough money to finish school.

Yeah, thank God.

You okay?

It's nothing. It's nothing. Come see folks.

It's nothing. All right.

No worries.

No worries.

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

All right. All right. All right.

All right.

All right. All right. All right.

Gracias.

Bull!

Gustavo. What happened?

The phone is gone.

He was getting too lenient.

Sit down.

The DEA is cracking down.

And I'm not going to rot in prison because of his deficiencies.

So I got rid of him.

It's my show now.

Understood.

No more dirtiness.

No more going off radar.

Everything goes according to plan.

No deviations.

No excuses.

Everybody gets with the program.

When they go away, I don't care who it is.

And yes, this goes for your gringo too.

You have a problem with that?

No.

Pues vamos a presentarlo.

Thank you. Thank you.

Where are we going?

You know

There's no rules.

You show up on time, you leave on time.

No fucking bullshit, man.

All orders are to be followed to the head.

Well, open it, hijo.

It's a phone for you. That's the one you keep.

You keep it on you at all times.

That's someone who didn't follow orders.

So, do you know the routes?

They're not gonna babysit you.

Oh, how bad is everyone?

We're the only one of you mice.

I'm more lazy than a mouse.

New boy says you show up late again and you're done.

Answer that phone.

You do as you're told.

Don't be a problem. That's what happens when you're a problem.

You end up in the goddamn trunk.

Julio, mijo. No, no, don't Julio me.

We're not friends.

I'm not your mijo.

Well, Earl, you're back.

Isn't that Big Papa?

Yeah, it's me.

And I gather you guys own my ass.

Oh, come on, man. It's not that bad.

Ready for another trip?

Okay.

All right.

Come on, man. Let's make some money.

All right.

That's the spirit. Yeah, that's the Earl I know.

Woody, give us nothing but from the wiretap. We know where the mule's going.

know his exact route.

So this time, we don't use local PD or state troopers. It's Agent Trevino and

myself in an undercover vehicle, Agent Brown in our mark -making stops, and

aircraft. And?

And not this.

We pull the plug on the whole thing.

I mean, all the surveillance, all the wiretapping, man hours, everything, it

comes to a head. It's a lot of busts.

Go get her done. Okay.

All right, let's see what we got.

They look funny.

Between the two of them, they got no more than three grams of coke,

Brad, see this?

Yeah, let's pull him over.

I'm slowly exiting my vehicle.

How you doing? I'm not a threat, sir.

Please don't shoot me.

Please don't shoot me. Don't worry about it.

Relax. Relax. Put your hands on the vehicle.

You don't have any weapons on you, do you, man? No, sir. No weapons.

I'm very tense right now.

Do you have any drugs in the car?

No drugs. Not high. Don't have any drugs. Never had any drugs.

Okay. All right.

You know, statistically speaking, this is the most dangerous five minutes of my

life. I'm being pulled over by law enforcement.

It's okay. Take it easy. Just breathe.

You want me to breathe? You want me to relax?

The chances of me dying during a routine traffic stop are greater than I don't

even know.

I mean, it's the most dangerous five minutes of my life, man, being pulled

by law enforcement.

I don't speak Spanish.

I am no threat.

That's you?

Okay.

Sorry to inconvenience you. Have a good day, sir.

Thank you for your service, officer.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Have a good day.

How we looking up there? Anything?

No.

I got no more, man.

Yeah, he's not here.

Hey, Luis.

You don't have him, do you?

No, why?

He'll be at the Honest Dave Motel off of Interstate 55.

Well, that's rather specific.

Tata had to get permission from his handler to stop for the night.

Does that prove my worth?

We'll see.

He's got a location on Honest Dave Motel.

Let's check it out.

Work a lot better if you get that damn phone out of your hand.

After your fucking advice, Grandpa?

That's your fucking bedtime anyway.

All right, scratch 109. That's just a young couple with kids and a toddler.

All right.

We got a possible in 203, solo male, mid -30s.

Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. What's that right there? What's that right there?

You think that's our guy?

Could be.

How do you want to play it?

You want to get local police here on noise call, just disorderly conduct? No,

let's just have homeboy run into the wrong guy.

Yeah, except I'm trying to avoid some big asshole who's going around here

banging his cell phone on the ice machine down there.

I don't know what it is with you guys and your generation.

You guys?

Jesus, don't you guys live life or something outside the goddamn phone?

What the fuck are you doing? Fuck, I thought this was my room.

Yeah? Well, it's not.

Wake the fuck up, asshole.

Oh, fuck you, bro.

What did you say to me?

I said fuck you.

I heard the news, but it's a felony assault DEA agent.

A what?

DEA agent. Fuck.

Yeah, it's less than an ounce.

Maybe 15 grams.

Let's see what's in this pickup.

It's not him.

Maybe there's another Honest Abe Motel, or maybe it's code.

What do you want to do with this guy?

Call local PD, give them the half ounce, and we keep going.

Start back up at 6 a .m. Get some rest.

Coffee? Maybe you'd fill that thermos for me? Sure thing.

Thank you.

Get the check when you get to it. Absolutely.

Morning.

Oh, shit.

What's that?

Oh, shit.

I know a lot about all shit.

Is that a missed birthday or what?

Anniversary.

Jesus, I'm an idiot.

Yeah.

Yeah, I am.

Yeah, she didn't say happy anniversary.

Sit out there waiting for me to remember.

You know, that was really something yesterday.

Down at the motel.

When you took that guy down.

That's something else, I'll tell you. Sorry if we caused you any disturbance.

No, no, it didn't disturb me. It was unfortunate.

Well, you've got to think about family.

Anniversary's important.

But you've got to think about it because women love that shit, you know?

But, you know, I'm the king of missing anniversaries. Oh, yeah? That's the

problem, yes.

That's the first one I've missed.

Good luck. Don't follow my footsteps and do what I did. Put work in front of

family. That's the most important thing.

Work fine if it's a second position.

But first position should be family.

I learned that the hard way.

My daughter won't even speak to me. I haven't talked to them in 12 and a half

years.

Jesus.

12 and a half years.

It's like I never, like they were never there or something.

But anyway, I better pay.

Oh, well, thank you. Here, you keep that. Thank you. That's fine.

Just what you needed.

Some asshole sitting here telling you about what you should do in your

life. No, not at all.

Anyway, I want to wish you good luck.

You all need it.

And thank you for the advice.

It's good to talk to one of you guys once in a while.

You guys?

You know. What kind of guys? No, you're just willing to, you know, you live so

long. I think you probably lost your filter.

Really? I never realized I ever had one.

All right. Take it easy.

You too.

Excuse me, sir.

Got this.

Well, thank you very much.

Have a good day. You too.

Hello, Jenny.

Grandpa Earl,

it's Grandma Mary.

She's sick, like, sick, sick.

We're at the hospital, but they're sending her home.

Oh, well, that's good. That's good that they're sending her home.

No, it's bad.

They did all these tests and scanned shit, but it doesn't matter. They said

should have come in like a year ago.

Grandpa Earl, are you there?

Yeah.

Jenny, I can't.

What?

Why? They said it could be any day now.

I've got the schedule, but it's really tight.

I've just got so many things I can't do it. Yeah, right.

I took shit for years, picking up for you.

What an idiot.

It turns out I was wrong the whole time.

Jenny, I'm sorry.

If I could drop everything and go...

You came?

Yeah.

Where's your mom?

She's in her bedroom.

Okay, I'll go.

Hello, Mary.

Earl.

What do you want?

You're not in the will or anything.

Oh.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to say that.

I'm just scared, you know.

Yeah.

Well, the only person who wants to live to 100 is a 99 -year -old anyway.

You lived to get back out there.

All the conventions and the socializing and being the center of

attention.

Then they got the fun, wonderful man that you are.

And we got the Earl who just couldn't wait to get back out there.

Yeah.

Well, you're right.

I thought it was more important to be somebody out there than the damn

failure I was here at my own home.

Anyway, for what it's worth, I'm here now.

I don't know why.

No way, sir.

Again.

It's

supposed

to be here a day ago.

Maybe the kid lied.

Hang on, there's a call coming from inside.

They don't know where he is either.

They sound pissed.

Said when they find him, they're gonna kill him.

Good.

Tell me something.

Yeah, anything.

How did you come into all that money?

Well, I just... Well, I'm not going to lie to you.

I'm a high -end gigolo.

Bounty hunter?

Come on.

Seriously, come on.

All right, seriously.

I've become a drug mule for the cartel, and I've got 305 kilos of cocaine

sitting right in the back of my truck out there.

You're never going to tell me.

Well, whatever you did.

You didn't have to get rich for us to want you around.

Yeah.

He finally came out here.

See, she didn't completely throw you away.

I failed you, Harris.

I was a terrible father, terrible husband.

I just blew it, that's all.

I blew my chance.

I don't think so.

I think you're just a late bloomer.

They're shitting bricks.

They haven't heard from him in over a week, and it's like 12 mil worth of coke

So I mean they got people swarming the highways Good

We have new information on Tata.

I have new information from my boss. It's time to wrap this up. We can get

guy It's been months Colin So what's a couple more days?

Look, we don't even know if the guy is still out there. You've been allotted as

much time and resources as we can give to anyone.

You did good work.

If you had a few more days while we finalized the warrants, what's your

Follow his followers.

We tapped the phones of a couple cartel guys that are also looking for him.

Okay. Do it.

Thank you.

for the love of my life and the pain of my life.

And I need you to know

it's all the world to

me that you're here.

today than yesterday.

I knew Mary well enough to know that there was no better friend, no better

mother, no better mentor, no better listener to those in need.

The light that she carried through in her soul and her spirit is something

we should carry on in our own daily lives.

The optimism, the hopefulness, even at the end of her days.

Everything works out better than expected, she always used to say. We

her, but... She would not want us to mourn today.

Thank you, sir. Thank you very much, sir.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hey, Dad.

The flowers were really lovely.

Oh, well, thank you.

Glad you liked them. We'd, uh...

We'd like to invite you to Thanksgiving.

Really? Yeah.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Good.

Where you been, Earl?

I've been unavailable.

Are you making us have to do this, huh?

Celebrating the life of Mary Stone.

Who the fuck's Mary Stone?

Huh? My wife. She passed.

Yeah. I know I was warned.

I want ill will anyway, so... I won't feel no ill will if you... Whatever goes

on here.

Just go ahead.

Try to fucking do what you have to do.

What's the hope? They're talking about Tata.

He was at a funeral.

His wife was dying of cancer. But now he's finishing the run. Sounds like

with him.

No, pero es esposa. It's fucking esposa.

I don't care.

Soy el maldito jefe.

Si, si, si.

They're gonna kill him.

He's the best mule we have.

Get a lock on a GPS now and get the chopper in the air. Okay. Let him finish

job. If he fails, it's your end. Si, si, si.

Get it done.

Okay.

We have a location on that GPS track.

Illinois, quarter mile, east off Interstate 55, exit 224.

All right, here we go.

Unit 1, go ahead and block all northbound traffic. Unit 2 and 3, box

once we're in position.

All right, here we go.

All comes down right here.

Be smart, slow down.

All right.

Let's go.

Step out of the vehicle with your hands up! Get out of the car!

Driver, step out of the vehicle, put your hands in the air! Get out of the

fucking vehicle now!

Get out of the car!

Put your hands behind

your head and

interlace your fingers.

Now I want you to take steps back towards me to the sound of my voice.

There you go.

That's it. Keep coming.

Here we go.

That's it.

What happened to your face?

Nothing.

I just got what I damn well deserved, though.

And the suit?

Went to a funeral.

My ex -wife's funeral.

I'm sorry.

Lucky ex -wife.

Got to spend some time with her.

She let me in, and my whole family let me in. My daughter, everybody.

And it's the daughter that wouldn't talk to you?

Yeah.

That's right, you remember that, huh? I do.

Well, am I the guy who's responsible for you missing your anniversary?

You know, it's funny, after all this work and time away, you were, all people

were right.

I ain't been right about much in life.

Well, you made things straight with your family.

Yeah.

I'm glad for you. That's the thing.

You just remember that.

You remember that with your family.

You don't need all that other shit.

I'll try to.

You take care of yourself, okay?

You too.

Yeah.

Hang in there.

Earl Stone is a man who served this country, fought for our freedom, and now

faces the loss of his own.

Murdering cartel thugs, who not only took advantage of his good nature, but

his advanced age, his vulnerability, your honor. Guilty.

Earl.

Earl. Mr. Stone, you should talk to your attorney.

Carl, don't do this.

I'm guilty, Your Honor.

I did it.

Mr. Stone, are you pleading guilty on all charges?

Yes.

Bailiff, take him into custody.

Mr. Stone, you are remanded into federal prison.

You did a good job.

We'll come visit you every chance we can.

Thanks.

Mike and I will look after the farm, don't you worry, Grandpa.

I know you will.

It's just time is all.

I can buy anything, but I couldn't buy time.

It's okay.

I love you.

We still will always know where you are.

Court is adjourned.

Good morning, Special Agent.

Thank you, sir.

Don't let the old man in.

I want to live this alone.

Can't leave it up to him.

He's knocking on my door.

Get up and go outside.

Don't let the old man in.

Many months I have lived.

My body's weathered and worn.

Ask yourself how would you be if you didn't.

Try to love on your wife.

And stay close to your friends.

Toast each son down with wine.

I have lived My body's weathered and warm

Ask yourself how old you'd be

If you didn't know the day you were born

When he rides up on his horse

And you feel that cold
