What's the deal?

We got the van
with about 20 wets.

I'm asking about
the coyotes.

Don't know yet.

Carter and Cox
are on their trail.

You mean to tell me
they got away?

Hey, I just told you
I don't know yet.

Rooney, how long you
been on the force?

Don't you think you can get
your boys' act together?

I can't be up here in the air
and down there at the same time.

Ten-hut.

We've got to get to the river
before it get's too light.

Damn,
son of a bitch.

He won't give up.
- Get out of sight.

Looky here,
a couple strays.

You missed the roundup,
boys.

Oh partner
- Son of a bitch!

I'm gonna get you.
Now there is no sweat for him.

Move your ass.

You just opened hunting
season on the Rio Grande.

Let's see
who gets the trophy.

Yeah.

If you cross
this river again

You're putting your life
on the line.

Got it?

I got it

Had a busy night, huh?
- Yeah.

Recognize him?

Nope.
Didn't get a good look.

They're as good as dead.

Aguilar, five minutes. Next
stop, Laredo.

I'll get the bags.
- All alright.

Ah, there he is.

Hi, Uncle Willy.

Well, we made it.

Good for you.

Could have sworn
it was him.

Hey, isn't that him?

You got it

A new load for you.

I don't know what you
do with your shirts

Ask your cousins,
Rosie.

They tried to put
holes in this one.

What cousins?
You don't make any sense.

Hi.
Here we are.

I'm Chuck.
This is my buddy Jonathan.

I thought we'd never
get here.

Full watcher for interested people
on the election process

Lorado attorney

Well, how was your trip?

Great for him, but I can't
sleep on hamburgers and Cokes.

Two eggs over easy
and some toast, please.

- Coffee?

Glass of milk.

And what will you have?

No, that's for him.

I'll have the same, plus some orange juice,
an order of pancakes, a bowl of Rice Krispies

and I'll take that coffee.

OK. Thank you.

You're welcome.

You fellows from the
same town?

Same stupid town.

No matter what your dad thinks.
- He doesn't care.

Bullshit. He wants everyone
else to be just like him.

Thank you

That's why it was up to me to
get this guy out to see the world.

So he could learn about life?
- Right.

You gonna teach him?

Hey, somebody has
to open up his eyes.

Your eggs will be
ready in a second.

Thank you

So, do you think they'll
let us go with you?

You mean you want
to join the force?

Yeah. What else can
you do around here?

Not much.

That's for damn sure.

Well, we'll start
out like you did

Join the force.

If anything else comes
along that's more exciting.

You got your
own business, right?

Thanks,
uncle willie

By the way Mom
sends her best.

Said she'll write to you.

That's real nice
of her, kid.

But listen, kid.

There's some kind of
misunderstanding here.

I ain't got no nephew

No sister,
and no business.

But...

I can give you a hand.

What's your uncle's name?

Bryant.

Willie Bryant.

You must know him?

Yeah, sure.

He's not on patrol anymore.

Add this to the shirts,
Rosie.

You stupid asshole.
Why'd you have to tell him about Mitch?

Bryant say he was going to meet
you here today?

He said he'll be here for sure
on Thursday.

Today is Thursday isn't it?

You want to
see him, right?

Yeah.

I think I know
where he is.

Great

That's fine.

But I can't wear this
where we're going.

Howdy.

Hey.

Kind of early isn't it?

Nope.
Just about bedtime.

Here we are in Mexico.

What about that?

What's that?

Looks like a body.

It's probably a dog.

Mexicans say what floats downstream
don't belong to nobody.

Not to them.

Not to us.

Well...
is the puerta of bella

I didn't know acupuncture
was a turn on.

What do you want?

Put that away first.

Sorry. I...

I didn't know it was you.

Say hello to your nephew.

Hi, Uncle Willy.

Yeah, uhh

Hi.

This is my friend Jonathan.

What happened?

Um--

He took a crap
in a cactus patch.

I, um...

Had an accident.

Jesus

So ahh..

You getting set up OK?

Yeah. Mitch has been
a lot of help.

Oh yeah?

Great.

Thanks, Mitch.

That's what we're here for.

Look, why don't you two guys go
have a drink to my recovery, huh?

You take 'em.

If they want something
extra tack it on.

Tell 'em it's all on me.

Hey, thanks,
Uncle Willy.

He's not my son.

Ow.

How long you been here?

A couple of weeks.

I came from Atamoros' when they
closed it up.

Getting ready to make
the jump, huh?

What jump?

To America.

What you mean
by america?

The space?

What's your name?

Engracia.

Engracia?

Yeah.

And yours?

I'm Chuck.

Chuck?

Yeah.

That's not a name.

That's just a noise.

Hello, my love.

Long time no see.

May I have one Escoces?

Sure.
Have a double.

OK.
Make it a double.

You don't like me?

Is he a priest or something?

The best place to
learn Spanish is in bed.

Yeah.

In two hours I teach you
everything you need to know.

I'm ready anytime.

Yeah, but you already know.

How do you know?

Hey, I gotta catch up.

OK, kid.

Go ahead.

Careful.
She's probably got something.

20 bucks now.

Come here,

Chucka, Chucka,
Chuck.

We have to be out of here in 15
minutes.

What about you?

OK, the other one.

If you wore boots like a good
Texan wouldn't have no trouble.

Boots make men much handsomer.

Take them off.

Oh!, you think
the boys town

Boys town?

Full coward

More like a concentration
camp to me

Yeah, I guess you're in down
chicken, can you leave here?

You live here?

Not the ones
on the contract.

Just people like you uncle

Not my uncle

Hey, what's up?

Oh, putin' back her.

How was she?
- Fantastic.

You kids always,
it's great.

Did you charge you?

Why?

Because
we're Bryant's guest.

We can't let her charge twice.
Did you charge you or not?

Let's just forget it,
come on, let's go.

A little bitch
thinks she's smart.

Hey, Mitch, please,
forget it, it doesn't matter.

Oh, please, just let go.

Hey!

Give the kid
his money back.

You heard Bryant,

I mean Willie,

We're his guest.

I don't give that nothing.

Oh, yeah?
I'll go to cash.

Ok

We'll take it in trade.

I've been keen.

Come on,
get on the van

Riding herd, huh?

They day you take that hat off it's
going to be crawling with alligators.

That's why I don't take it off.

I don't blame you.

Here's the report.
Take a look.

Mitch, don't you think there's
something strange about this?

I mean...

They brought him across
the border at other places

At sunrise...

And they never took a
shot at anybody.

Stakes are higher.
That's all.

Why is that?

Won't you let me look into it?

Ok

They don't try
to bust on yourself.

Remember,

You're still part
of the forest.

Well,

Here's the man.

Next time you ought to
get the pants a little tighter.

You guys are in
too much of a hurry.

There's always time
to join up.

We only did what you did.

Yeah.

I lost a lot of
good years too.

This here is rough country out
here.

It's not as tough as we are,
eh, John?

We got no time to lose.

Oh, yeah?

Well then,

You might as well learn
something about guns.

We already know
all about 'em.

- Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Back home we did
a lot of target practice.

Well

This will be a little
different.

You don't expect to hit
anything

with these open sights.
Did you?

Well, I hear you need one of those fresh
busters just to do the job. Excuse me.

Come on.

I'll show you what it'll do to a
wild Havalina hog.

We don't practice
on animals.

Shit.

A couple of god damn babies.

What do you do baby?

Say, bang, bang, you're dead?

Somebody will blow your ass away
before you can even holler.

Hey,
hold on a minute.

Let's use
this as a target.

Ready when you are guys.

- You first.

Oh, go ahead.

Too bad Willy.

Nice try.

Come on, Jonathan.
You can do it.

All right.

Let's try a second round.

Get out of the way.

Move it asshole.

You can pick those
up with your hands.

You can tease them.

You just have to be
faster than they are.

These more afraid than you are.
That's good reason.

Come on, baby.

Let's see if you got the balls.

They can't do anything
if they can't get a grip.

You gotta hold the head and the
tail at the same time.

Come on, which one
of you wants to do it

Huh?

Hey, Chuck, don't be stupid,
huh?

Hey,
- This guy's crazy.

All it takes

Is speed and nerves.

It's flipping.

Oh, shit.

Damn,
- Come on Chuck..

I told you not to
let it have a grip.

Get away.

Come on, kid.

Let's do something.

Afraid you're going
to hurt the snake?

It's going to get me.

Ah, I guess you kids are still

tied to Mitch's
apron strings.

These ones are 350,
amigo.

These ones
or these ones?

Or this one's.
Not those

Ok

It's all the money I've got.
You like?

Yeah,
I'll take it.

What the matter, baby?

You didn't like it?

How about a smile?

Kid...

You got great taste.

She's a little slow to get
started, but...

What a finish.

Hey

May I sit down?

Mmm, what happened
to your hand?

Is something wrong?

Better with him
than it is with me?

Ahh, him

What's so funny?

Because he asked me the
same question about you.

So...

What's that?

Yor name and your noin

That's not right.
Is C-H-A-C-K

Well, it's not my fault.
You don't have a Christian name.

- Hey, you got boots.

Do you like 'em?

Yeah.

They are super.

I can't leave you.

I have to have you.

Don't be childish.

In a couple of days you won't
even remember me.

That's not true.

I will never forget you.

Just remember to send
me the money, okay?

By the way,

The beat is running
awfully hot, you know?

If I do send you the money

Will you write to me?

- We'll see.
- Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Then I won't send the money.

That's what I'm afraid of.

It is the first time
I trust a man.

Believe it or not.

Let's make a deal.

I send you the money

And you write to me,

Ok?

OK.

Sam, Miller, with you.

Knox, Snyder, with Rooney.

Mathewson...
where's Mathewson?

What about me?

You stay with us.

You're a Texan.
You've seen the sights.

That's no way to start.

Hey.

Thank you.

Now we get to wait.

I'm going to step outside.

Yeah, go ahead.

Car 32 come in,
please.

Morning, Mitch.
This is Eddie.

Howdy

Where are you?

Out on 83 past Laredo.

OK, stay there.

I'll let you know
if anything comes up.

You got it.

Stevens.

Yeah?

I forgot something.

That five letter
mammal is a tapir.

T-A-P-I-R.

Well, thanks, but hell, I
already had it.

The hell
you did it.

Oh shit.

Don't worry.
He won't get us this time.

Damn it, Mitch.
Not so close.

You need your
ears lowered anyway.

32, 27, they're on 83 in a
yellow truck.

Stop 'em.

Let's see what kind of goodies
they got for us.

Got it covered.

32, it is green.

Right.
We're on our way.

Hey, Rooney.

Here we go.
Do-si-so.

Come on.

What a hell with them

We got the sons of bitches.

Hold it.

You son of a bitch.

All right, Bryant,
you know the routine.

Turn around.

Who?
Hold it right there.

Ah, the animal lover.

I guess you prefer to practice
on people, huh?

Ow.

Line up now.

Is Bryant?

What?

Is it Bryant?

Yeah, it's Bryant,
but listen.

What?

There's a Mexican wounded.
Maybe dead. I can't tell.

Nice shot, kid.

With Jonathan

Now follow me.

This way.

Come by to pick up
your medal did you?

No

I came by to pick
up my trophy.

Jesus, Mitch,
what are you doing?

Take it easy.
Just calm down.

Next you cowardy

Cool off man.
Just cool off.

And that's you, coyote.

Chief isn't gonna like this.

Get inside.

Take care of your uncle.

Jesus.

Go to hell.

For Christ's sake, Mitch, don't
give me any more

problems than I've already got.

Good eye, kid.

With the way things are going you'd be
better off not having such a good eye.

Just sign this and shut up.

Why don't you get your ass out
on the field

and let's see how you handle it.

My ass has been on the line and
nobody ever got shot.

If this boy dies we're in for
big trouble.

The Mexican consul's already
called the attorney general.

And the press is going to play
this up big.

Border patrol opens hunting
season on Mexicans.

And just what do you want us to
do about it?

For right now don't do
anything.

Just keep your mouth shut.

Everybody's dismisse

Except Mitch.

Come on.

All right, let's go.

Come on.

All right, come on.

All right,
you all got a quarter?

It's only 25 cents now.

Come on, man, cheer up.

You didn't break the law.
nothing's going to happen.

Okay, you were right.

This is shit, man.
We're leaving.

You didn't sign anything
and I'll have to find a way out myself.

Sorry, friend,
she's not available.

What'd you say?

You heard me.

I want to talk to you.

Hey, this girl is mine,
boy.

She's been drinking
with me all day.

I'll be back in a minute.

What the hell
is this all about?

Listen Engracia,
I want you out of here.

You don't belong in Boystown.
- What?

We're leaving tomorrow.
I want you to come with us.

And break my contact
with the Papi John

You know what he did to get it?

Besides the police would look
for me all over.

Hey, no one will look
for you in America.

But you're crazy.
Why would I leave?

What would I do, huh?

Don't worry.

Everything is going to work.

Look, nobody's looking. Come on, get inside.
You'll never have to come back.

No. I'm not leaving.

There is nothing for me
in your America.

Besides,

If I leave all this.

I have to see a priest first.

Engracia, I must have you.

I'm sorry.

We can go to
the room for a while.

What happened?

I'm broke again.
I spent all my money on the car.

Well,

I'll put it in your bill, OK?

OK.

Not even a phone.

Your uncle's here
and you gotta lay low.

Chuck, uncle.

What are you doing?
- I'm living.

Had it with the border.

You know, with a
better place?

Yeah.

Home.

I don't think they're
gonna let you go home.

There weird nothing
to do with this.

I didn't even sign
an application.

Well, it did.

Chuck

And you can't even say
it was in the line of duty.

Come on.

Snap out of it. They're waiting
for us. We gotta go.

Where is your partner?

With a girlfriend,
I guess.

I had word from
patrol agent Mitchell

that a tank truck was
northbound on the highway.

He gave a command
to stop the truck.

Did you know that undocumented
aliens were inside the truck?

No.

No. I thought the driver
was carrying contraband.

Why didn't you think that
aliens were inside?

Because he didn't stop.

Where you been, boy?
Playing hooky?

It seemed inconceivable to me that he
would risk human life like that.

But as you see they did.

Border patrol pilot
Frank Mitchell.

39 years old.

12 years of service.

Divorced.

Served as a pilot on the day of
the incident.

On the night of November 7th

You give orders to shoot a tank
truck traveling along Highway 83?

No.

I said it should be stopped.

Doesn't it imply
the same thing?

Hardly.

MAN: Who did the shooting?

Can you identify yourself?

Snyder.

He's one of our trainees.

He's going through
practice exercises

before he goes Academy next
week for a period of two months.

Does a trainee have permission
to shoot a firearm?

Only in self-defense.

The truth is
I fired the first shot.

And?

Well,

I didn't hit the target.

Mr. Mitchell,

The smuggler
Mr. William Bryant

Was a former patrol agent...

So what's happening?
Are we leaving??

Heard what he said?

Then we're staying.

Yes

Didn't his arrest as a smuggler
give you a personal satisfaction?

Of settling
of old scores?

No, sir.

I'm a professional.

I was doing my job.

Is it also your job to punch him in
the stomach when he's handcuffed?

We are not analyzing
the Bryant case now.

But we are analyzing the spirit in which
patrol agent Mitchell carries out his duties.

Maybe you are
out to get Bryant

And it was a matter of indifference to
you whether the cargo in the tank truck was

drugs or people or children.

I object.

That's right let's
stick to the facts.

Mr. Mitchell, you must admit
your name is almost

Always connected with
these border incidents.

We're returning illegal aliens

According to mutual agreement
between Mexico and the US.

If your border patrol took
their job more seriously

We would have fewer
of these incidents.

Are you asking for stronger
repression?

I don't think this is the
time for personal opinions.

What a shame.

I was just about to ask Mr.
Mitchell something personal.

Go ahead.

No, let's not bother.

If all of you
are through with me

Can I go?

What's Up?

I'm Schultz with
the Texas Observer.

Is there anything else
you want to say?

Would you mind telling me why
in the hell an American law officer

has to give explanations
to foreigners?

Would you repeat that for
Mexican TV?

- No, I wouldn't.
You mean you won't talk to us?

Get out of my face.

Hey

Ok

Are you...?
- Ok

- How are you doing?
OK.

Yeah
- Come on

Yeah.
- Ok

Where are we going?

Boystown.

Those dirty Mexicans have been
fucking us long enough.

Now we're going to fuck them.

Hey, I still have to testify.

Nobody's going to
ask you anything.

Or don't you want to go with a
real hard ass son of a bitch?

It's just that I was
there this afternoon.

What do you know?

Engracia won't mind.

The more tricks
the bigger the take.

Mitch, I've really
had enough today.

At 21?

Come on and get in.

But I'm broke.

We'll find a way.

Ok

Mitch, wait.

Son of a bitch.

No, no "G" like george

No, no conozco last name

But she works

The Baja

Yes in a Fabian

No

Why not Annita talk to right now,
es mucho importante, pleace

Ok, no es posible

I see

Thanks

What a bastard.

You're something else,
you know that?

Jesus.

You got a bad case
of pussy fever, kid.

I understand 'cause

She's got
something special.

You can't keep
her to yourself

So why not share
her with a friend?

It's got a...

Nice kind
of a ring to it.

Like two buddies having a drink
together.

Yeah.

But it'll be the last one 'cause
I'm ready to close.

Just leave the bottle
and go on home.

We're not going
to get laid.

We might as
well get drunk.

To Engracia.

And us.

You know what
I like about her?

She doesn't like to do it,
but she's a real pro.

You know she

starts out
by faking it

And she just gets
caught up in it.

Starts to liking it.

Liking it and it

Loving it.

At least

that's the way
she is with me.

What's she like
with you, kid?

What's the matter?

You don't want to talk about it?

Well, you're wrong.

That's the best part of it.

Talking about it afterwards.

Not for me it isn't.

Well, you're still a rookie.

Gotta go.

Hey,

Come on back.

We still got a bottle to finish.

I want to send a telegram.

Yes to Mexico.

Same number.

No, I don't know her last name.
She works at El Papillon.

OK.

I want to marry you.

That's it.

No, hold on.

I will love you forever.

Yes.

Signed Charles

Mathewson.

You've got to do something
to deserve it first.

I mean...

It's almost time
to pick up the body.

Why did you have
to make it so early?

It's quiet, Castle.

Less trouble that way.

Excuse me.

So what'd the council want?

Nothing special.

He's just playing his part.

Yeah?

What does he want?

First money.

They're asking for a million dollars
to settle with the boy's family.

Well, they're just asking.

You know when we first started out...

Everything was different then.
I know that. But things have changed.

You're no fool.
You know the whole thing is political.

And second?

Your head.

Why me?

They want you transferred.

That's why.

I wasn't even on
the road that night.

Yeah, but you got a reputation.

So?

Is that a crime?

I'm just telling you
what they want.

You didn't sell me out did you?

We gotta make them happy.

Once we settle with the boy's family
you're going to be right back on the job.

I mean, hell, take a couple of weeks off.
I wish I could.

They don't want something else?

Oh, there's a third condition,
but it doesn't concern you.

They're not going to get it
anyway.

You know you and your secrecies and your
politics, you're fucking up the whole country.

Mitch, it's exactly that kind of attitude
that constantly gets you in trouble.

Yeah, well when you work it out with
your Mexican buddies give me a call.

M-I-N-E.

You are correct.

No, I won't.

You mean you won't talk to us?

Get out of my face.

R-O-N.

That is incorrect.

Let's go to your room.

I don't feel like
going in there.

I don't blame you

But I don't feel like being
with such a famous man.

Hey.

What happens out there?

Ain't got nothing to
do with you and me.

Look, let's have a drink
and talking over

Sorry, I'm leaving

Try and true

We had a moment's Annita

I'm get married

I said no.

We got plenty to
talk about you and me.

Who told you to
come into my room?

Don't get angry.

You're much too pretty.

But you're going
to leave for good?

Yes.

But now we're not going.

Then I suppose you bring
me the money, no?

No, I came back for
a much better reason.

You know that.

Yes, but you have
to pay me first.

OK?

Even today?

What a way to start.

That's all?

Anyway,

I don't think we are going
to do anything today.

What do you mean?

I really shouldn't.
I'm going to be married.

To a very rich man

From Chicago.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

He's crazy for me.

Read it.

You're nuts.

You're happy because
I marry another man?

You're funny.

The other guy is me.

You?

Yeah.

Chucka, Chucka, Chuck

And Charles Mathewson...

The same person.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why you make fun of me?

Make fun of you?

Yeah.

Engracia

You're the one who's
been giving me a rough time.

Listen,

I love going
to bed with you,

But it's not enough.

I need to have you.

I want you.

Are you really
going to marry me?

How else am I going
to get you out of here?

Hey, kid.

What's this bullshit story I hear
about you marrying Engracia?

Yeah, I'm going to do it.

Making a big mistake, kid.

There ain't no
changing a whore.

If you weren't so drunk, Mitch,
I'd get you for that.

You are cunt struck.

I'll admit she's a fancy fuck,

But you can't marry every
whore you go to bed with.

Son of b...

You bit off more than
you can chew, kid.

I pity you, Mitch.
You sick bastard.

Put down...

It's all over.

Le's go

You little piece of shit.

God damn it,
let go of me.

Let go!

Hey!

Where's my hat?

Come on, Chuck.

The rings.

Hey, the rings.

Come on, man,
hurry it up.

H.

E.-W.

S.

R.

N.

Engracia,
sweet heart

Morning.

US citizen?

Thank you.
What about you?

Is this the only document
you have on her?

Yeah.

Why don't you follow me
into the office for a moment?

Charles Mathewson?

Yes.

And you and Miss
Engracia Gomez just got married?

Is that right?

Yes.

The marriage is
perfectly legal, but, uh...

But what?

Mr. Mathewson,

You're a border patrol
trainee and according

You cannot
bring into the United States,

As your wife,

a Mexican woman
under contract in the zone.

You need a special waiver.

You ought to know that.

Let me talk to the officer in
charge here.

If you like.

It's not going to
change a thing.

Hey, look, things have gotten a
little botched up, OK?

It's all confusion.

Why didn't you tell me you were

Sure I did.
I must have.

No, you didn't.

And if they don't like me
I don't like them too.

Mr. Mathewson.

Look,

We'll talk about it
later, OK?

Just hold on.

Where's Engracia?

She went that way.

Wait, where are you going?

Leave me alone.

I don't want to see you anymore.

You're a liar.

I want to be with my people.

Don't be a fool.

Have you gone crazy?

Hey, break it up.

Break it up.

Get off.

Come on, get off of him.

It's OK.

Chuck, come on.
We gotta get back there in 10 hours.

I'm not going back to the
Academy.

I won't join those bastards.

You know they got
us by the balls.

We're stuck in the border
patrol.

I can't leave without my wife.

Muchas gracias.

How much do I owe you?

Look who's over there.

So they satisfied
that condition.

They've been laid off,

But still keep looking for us.

I think he wants
something else.

Real silver, madam?

- No, no, no
No?

And you?

Do you want something?

No.

Silver from Mexico?

Sure.

Sit down.

What's the problem?

They wouldn't let you
back in Boystown?

I have to get a divorce first.

Looks like we're
both on the team.

But how long do you think they'll let
you pick up guys off the street?

The Zulies can play rough.

Don't worry about it, eh?

I do.

If you treat me nice

I can get you
back in the club.

They made a deal.

You heard from Chuck?

I don't want to talk about it.

He's a good kid.

He just has to grow up.

So, why didn't he tell me he
works with the migra

Well,

People don't
exactly love us.

I guess he figured you...

Wouldn't think he was so adorable.

I don't.

Listen,

Somebody has to
do the dirty work.

For instance,

You don't like me,

But I pay you good.

Don't you get a certain
satisfaction out

of doing something you don't
like

and knowing you do it better
than anybody else?

No one

So pull up the letter

My father

Forget me

Your all a tree there for

And

It must been a
real good mood

Hey, I got some important business in Mexico.
I gotta go down there this weekend.

With your car in Mexico?

It's been old time

Not if we take turns.

It's your business.
Not mine.

All right, I'll go alone,
but I'll need some bucks.

What, do I look rich to you?

Know, but you
got the extra check.

Mathewson.

You're not paying attention.

Can you give us the main points
of the 1898 Immigration Act?

I'll have to refresh
my memory, sir.

Well,

We have a nice long
weekend coming up.

So why don't you prepare a
report on it for next...

Tuesday?

Do you like it?

I want to talk to you.

What do you want?

I said I want to talk to you.

She's my wife.

I thought I'd never
see you again.

And I didn't expect to see you
back in Boystown.

Well...

Here is safer.

Engracia...

Listen to me.

You and I are not
guilty of anything.

We're not going to let all this
shit of Boystown and the border

Destroy our happiness.

Hey man, wake up.

Get a little tired
of this crowd.

I'll get back
to the Academy.

Whatever that needs
flavor over 24 hours.

You can't spare any time.
Otherwise we'll never get there.

That's a couple hours. I don't want
to go out there looking like this.

Back again.

You guys are fast, huh?

You got it.

There's the bathrooms here.
There's their tiles.

You need anything
ring the bell, Ok?

Who are yours?

Listen, Jonathan.

I don't think we should
go on sharing a room.

It cost too much money
to have to roll.

I know,
but I'm tired.

And I don't like
this place.

What's wrong with here?

People come here
just to get a quick lay.

I don't want to be getting any
funny ideas about us being together.

What?

I know you're getting to
be a real pain in your ass.

Hey, wait.

It's in here.

You rat. You know, you're
really messing with me.

Now I'm an accessory to smoke
on a Mexican cross reporter.

Do we get seven
years for that?

No, you don't not have to
cut your number open to book.

Give me a break,
will you?

You're running my career.

Career?

Since one of this
job means so much to you.

Get out of here.

How are you going to...
- Get out of here?

Welcome to America.

Come on, you gotta hurry up.

Listen, I've been thinking.

We'll rent an apartment
near the Academy.

Then I can be
with you on weekends.

It's only for three weeksand

And I'll ask for an assignment
where no one knows us.

What do you think?

Wha..
What?

I love you.

You want to repeat that?

I love you.

Oh god.

I can't believe
she finally said it.

She finally said it.

Hey.

L-G-E-E-N.
That is correct.

Baby,

You got troubles and you
don't even know it.

So you finally
made it to America.

You know,

Kid hasn't used
his brains once.

Brings you to
the cheapest place

In the nearest town.

Go away, Mitch.

And now what?

You're going to sit here and wait
until somebody finds out your wetback

And they ship you back
across the border?

I said go away.

I'm a married woman now
and this is my home.

Fucking home.

You don't even know how
to use this fucking thing.

How long do you think he's going
to stay married to a Mexican whore?

I don't want to hurt you.

I like you.

You know that.

Why can't it be the way it was?

Go away, Cabron!

Now, now.

OK.

But if I were you
I would think about it.

When the border patrol was
formed 60 years ago

The motto they adopted
then still rings true today.

Simply put,

Their motto was on
honor first.

Honor to your country.

Honor to her principles.

Honor to your fellow man.

Honor the country whose
borders you are protecting.

Honor the principles which have
made her the bastion of freedom.

Honor the equality
of all men and women

Whether white,
brown, or black,

Citizens, immigrants,
or aliens.

The border patrol from its
humble beginnings has had a long,

Colorful, and
proud history.

It expects the
best from its officers.

It is a tradition of the patrol
for each officer to meet the highest

Professional standards,
courage and humanity.

The border patrol is in charge
of guarding some 8,000 miles

Of America's
international boundaries.

Few officers

Realize...

To our neighbors in
the south and north...

Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you.
We're just checking out a complaint.

Would you show us some
personal identifications?

He works with you.

He's in the Academy.

He'll be here very soon.

We know.

Just pack a small bag
ma'am and come with us.

We will be in touch
with your husband.

We have another
fine class of professionals.

30 young men from many
backgrounds.

All dedicated to maintain,

Uphold

The dignity and
honor of the service.

N-O-R.

These young officers about to
graduate and enter the field

Are part of that proud tradition

That began more than half a
century ago in El Paso, Texas.

The border patrol was first...

Chuck!

Hey!

What a surprise.
You sure have grown up.

Hear that?

I can't believe my eyes.

Oh, here.

It's from your mom.
She's very happy as we all are.

It's your cheesecake.

How are you, Reverend Snyder?

Chuck.

Well, I was about to leave.

I must report immediately.
My car's really on its last legs.

Very well, but before
Jonathan's has something to do.

You've grown up together and
you're starting out together.

Let us pray.

May I ask God to bless you

And pray that he grant you

Success and fulfillment

As officers of peace.

In Jesus' name,
amen.

Patrolman Mathewson report
to the director's office.

Excuse me.
- Patrolman Charles Mathewson.

Let me make this clear.

I'm not in charge of your case.

I'm merely informing you that
you are accused

Of smuggling aliens

And that you now must go
on suspension without pay.

Does this mean you're quitting?

You can take it as you want.

Don't play games with me

I can get you keep out of the
service for that a long

You committing a crime

I have to wait to results
of the investigation

Yes, Sr.

Anything else Sr.

It's OK.

I'm here.

You didn't think
I'd let you down.

No.

But I was afraid they'd hit you
or put you in jail.

It wouldn't matter.

I'd always come back for you.

No.

Then I would
never see you again.

I don't get it.

How'd they find
where we live so fast

And that you were there?

Did they say anything?

No.

Chuck.

Big surprise, huh?

Yeah.

How did you, uh...

Ask the magician.

You were the third condition.

That's all.

Not tonight.
Thanks.

Yeah.

Since your friend screwed me up
I can't cheat at cards anymore.

OK.

What are you going to do now?

Wait for the trial I guess.

What else can I do?

You and me sure don't
have the same blood, kid.

They fucked him over.

It wasn't they.

It was he.

Wouldn't let his
wife into the country.

Deported her.

Arrested him.

He's still going to go back.

Don't you think

You can find anything here?

Sure

This is the real land of
opportunity,

especially for a gringo.

Maybe we can help you if you
help us.

The cards, gentlemen.

Things look different from here
don't they?

All these people want
is to go to the states

and make a decent living.

I see nothing wrong with that.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

No, no, kid.

The idea is you draw attention
to one point in the river

While we work another
point that's all.

Provide cover?

Yeah, that's right.

We deal in people
and goods.

Poor old, Mitch, he
always goes to the bait.

Yeah, but I'm still with the border
patrol. It could be dangerous for me.

Nah, you'll be all right.

You just stay on this side and
keep us posted, that's all.

Nice girl.

Did you ever think we'd end up
as uncle and niece, huh?

So long, kid.

Did you see it?

Huh?

200,000 for a Mexican boy.

So how much is our trip?

Paperboy.

Tonight we're
going bear hunting.

Well, well,
I heard a wetback.

Well, well

I heard a wetback.

Car 40, who am I talking to?

Hoover.

Where are you?

On 83 near Santa Santo.

There's group
at Las Pasos.

Get over there.
- Right, Mitch.

Stevens?

What's up, Mitch?

Drive to 83
and keep in contact

We're going to get our ducks lined up.
- Ok

Watch this, a
little night swim?

Mitch is back

I guess to patrol car ran away

So are we.

Not again.

Get out and push it.

Hang on.
I'm coming

Mitch, it's me!

It's me!

Bastard!

Hold on we each other

Kepp moving

Hold on to me.

Come on.

I'll help you

Hang on.

Don't worry.
We're gonna make it

Come on you son of a bitch.

It's all right.

A few more feet.

Hang on.

Hold it right there.

Chuck.

Chuck, you hear me?

We made it.

Chuck?

There

Would you do me a favor?

Tell Engracia not to
go back to Boystown.

Chuck.

Hi.

Hi.

How you feeling?

I don't want to think about it.

That's good.

Can I buy you a drink?

I don't work here anymore.

OK.

Let's go.

That's my girl.

That's my girl.

You don't need him.

Chuck.

I'm writing

To you

So

You will not

Worry

About me

It was

A danger

To our happiness.

I have

Thrown...

T-R-O-W-N.
Wrong. Try again.

Thrown

Into

The

Rio Grande.

As American's

Say

What goes downstream

Belongs to nobody

My love for you

F-O-R-E-V-E-R.

Right.
