A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

THE FOLLOWING IS A FICTIONAL STORY

INSPIRED BY SURVIVING ESCOBAR
BY JOHN JAIRO VELÁSQUEZ VÁSQUEZ.

CHARACTERS AND SITUATIONS
HAVE BEEN ALTERED FOR THIS PROGRAM.

-Good Afternoon.
-Hello.

Ms. Ana María Solozábal?

-Yes.
-An invitation.

Thanks.

Why are you anxious, Pope?

You look like
you have ants in your pants. Relax.

Ms. Ana María.

Please forgive me
for bringing you here this way,

but I need to speak with you,
and your phone must be tapped.

Listen to me.

I know what you’ve been up to

and all you’ve been through.

What do you mean?

I learned of the scandal
they created around your father.

Why did you bring me here, Tello?

What do you want from me?

I want you to see this.

These are threats, notes.

They started coming just after
your father was assigned

to handle drug trafficking cases.

Your father didn’t have
a moment of peace since.

AVOID MORE DEATHS

Did Escobar do this?

DON'T PUT YOUR FAMILY AT RISK.
AVOID MORE DEATHS.

WHO WILL VANISH IN TWO DAYS

That’s right. He was threatening him.

He told him to do his bidding,
otherwise he was going to harm him.

No matter where you and your mother hid,

or how guarded you were,

he was going to find you.

Ana María, your father
didn’t want to betray his principles.

He did it because he had to.

Because Escobar didn’t
leave him any choice.

Why do you have this?

Why do you have this information?

Your father worked for me.

No.

I don’t understand.

Look...

Since your father
couldn’t refuse Pablo Escobar,

he turned the tables in our favor.

He went in, undercover?

That’s right.

Thanks to his work with drug trafficking,

your father could infiltrate places
that, for us,

were impossible to access at that time.

When he found the information,

he gave us names,

routes, international contacts.

So, Escobar...

killed my father because of you.

He found him out.

He found him out.

I want you to know that your father
wasn’t a criminal.

He hit Escobar’s foundation
better than anybody else.

Just a few of us are privy
to this information.

Nobody can know about this.

If this gets out,

a lot of cases
your father helped us to solve

would go to hell.

Why?

I want you to help me.

Me?

I need you to help me
to get rid of a stigma

that I don’t deserve.

You're here, Ana María,
because I want you to know the truth

about what happened with J.J.

CARIBBEAN COAST OF COLOMBIA

This is it, gentlemen,

the location of the criminal
known as Popeye.

Hello.

This shows that you can do things right
when you apply yourself.

We are just unloading the little plane.

This is crazy!

I told you, didn’t I?
I told you I was going to deliver.

Yes, you delivered.

In fact, we should start

coordinating the next shipment.
What do you think?

Count on it. We’re moving forward.

There’s something I need to tell you.
My boss wants to meet you in person.

So, get ready, John Jairo.

You are about to meet
the Lord of the Skies.

I didn’t agree with it.

But I was following orders.

You know, when you belong
to an organization like that,

you have no choice but to obey.

There are chains of command.

Speaking of which,

what was the order?

Let John Jairo go free.

We had to plan everything in a way

so that when the Mexicans
came to rescue him,

they succeeded.

The Mexicans rescued Popeye?

The rumors were true.

That’s why there were no casualties.

That’s why you changed the subject
when I asked you about it.

I couldn’t tell you, Ana María.

I had specific orders.

From whom, Colonel?

I can’t tell you.

Why not?

You can get this information

if you investigate, if you ask.

If I tell you who is in charge,

the blame will fall upon me.

They will know right away
that I’m the informant.

You need to understand, I want to help.

I want everything that happened with
John Jairo Velásquez to go public.

I don’t care if they threaten my life.

But, I care about my family.

I don’t want them to pay...

To be held responsible.

Don’t give me names. It’s okay.

Just tell me why they let him escape.

I’m pretty sure you’ll find out soon.

-Colonel?
-Gaona, Rodríguez!

Please.

Quickly.

Take the lady back to her house.

Are you serious, Colonel?

Let’s go.

I don’t need help, thanks.

Thanks.

I’m waiting for your orders, sir.

What happened with Cárdenas?

He asked for two minutes
to take up his position.

We could kill J.J. in the crossfire.

I don’t care if that criminal
gets out dead or alive.

The order is to proceed.

-Come on, keep walking.
-Move.

And when is the visit?

If you like, we’ll happily
make sure he is comfortable here.

We’ll spend time with him.

What do you think?

Don’t fuck with me, asshole.
That’s impossible.

You know perfectly well
what a mess it would be to transport

someone as important as my boss.

No, of course, I know.

But think about it
because things are very quiet here.

Who would think a man like him
would spend his vacation here?

Just consider the pros and cons.

No problem.
It’s okay, I can go there instead.

The idea is to get together and meet.

So things can keep working
the way they are.

We’ll keep in touch, okay?

Sir.

Judging by this phone call,

we are very close
to capturing the Lord of the Skies.

If you authorize it,
I will call Cifuentes,

-to cancel...
-No.

No, the Lord of the Skies
is not one of our priorities.

If we're in this mess,
it's due to the DEA’s pressure.

What were you thinking when you invited
the Lord of the Skies to come here?

That man is wanted by half of the world.

If he comes here, the ones that are
after him will follow and we’ll be fucked.

So, now you’re going to die of fright?

We will die of a gunshot
and not because we’re frightened.

The idea is that he comes here,
we make him feel comfortable,

have him explore the Colombian coast,
let him have a taste.

We’ll throw a party with beautiful girls.

We’ll have him try the Colombian cocaine.

We’ll win his trust.

Sure.

And then we’ll lead the police
right to us.

Really. You too?

Pope.

Sometimes I don’t understand you, man.

Look.

Sir, we're busted!

Sir, we're busted!

Fuck, we're busted!

Move forward!

Shit.

They killed two.

Where are the sons of bitches?

There’re some upstairs.

What do we do, fucker?

Let’s try to get to the boat.

What about Pope, faggot?

-He is trying to save Alexandra’s ass.
-All right.

Honey, get down!

-Get down!
-I won’t get down, asshole!

Get down! Shut up!

I’m telling you to get down.

I knew this was going to happen.

Didn’t I tell you
that they were going to find us?

Fuck!

-Pope, what do we do?
-It’s okay!

Hold on!

John, what are we going to do?

What are we going to do? John, don’t!

Fuck.

Hold your fire!

Hold your fire!

INCOMING CALL
JJ

Fuck.

-Who are you calling?
-Quiet, let me think.

You are surrounded.

Drop your weapons.

Come out with your hands in the air.

If you don’t, we’ll go in.

Fuck.

We got busted and they’re slaughtering us!

Whatever you’re going through,

I can’t help you.

I’m off the case.

I have an appointment
with the Lord of the Skies.

It’s true, I’m meeting with him.

Good for you.

What do you mean?

I told you.

I’m off the case.

Speak with your superiors
and convey my message.

They don’t care.

We’ve been promising things
for months without results.

Son of a bitch, show them the recording!

Show them the phone call recording!

Show them!

I don’t have access to it.

If you still want the Mexican,
stop this shit.

If not, I’ll see you in hell,
son of a bitch.

Fuck. Pope, what do we do, asshole?

Hold on! We’ll get out in one piece!

You have 30 seconds to get out,

or we’ll enter by force.

John.

John, turn yourself in.

Don’t you realize
these people won’t help you?

-Turn yourself in!
-Shut up!

Fuck.

Yes, Mr. President.

It’s been confirmed.

If you need proof of what I’m saying,

please contact the Prosecution agents
in charge of the operation.

They have the recording of the phone call

that confirms
John Jairo Velásquez Vásquez

and the Lord of the Skies meeting.

Popeye and his men are surrounded.

This time he can’t escape, sir.

Find a way, then.

With all due respect, Prosecutor,
we can’t keep

dancing to the tune the DEA plays.

It’s not about wanting to do it,
it's about having to do it.

There is an agreement
between the Americans and the Colombians

to help each other
in this war against drug trafficking.

Considering that this is about catching

the most wanted drug lord in the world,

we are out of options.

Do whatever you can

to ensure that J.J. gets out alive.

That’s a mistake, sir.

It might be, Cifuentes.

But as of right know, we have no choice.

As you wish, sir.

YOU CAN LEAVE

Hey!

Alirio!

Let’s go! To the boat!

Let’s go!

Attention all units.
Put your guns down.

Put your guns down.

Let Popeye go.

Hey, Dude!

Manotas! Let’s go, to the boat!

-Let’s go.
-No, leave me here.

Come on, let’s go!

Let me go, asshole!

Either you come with me
or you don’t get out of here alive.

We are leaving. Come on.
Let’s go. Get down.

Cifuentes, is this for real?

It’s an order from the President.

Let’s go!

Hurry!

Help her.

Come on.

Come on.

Faggot.

Why are they letting us go?

I made a deal
with the operation’s commander.

I gave him the location
of one of our drug hideouts.

That seems strange, asshole.

-You’re not trustworthy, Pope.
-Then, don’t trust me.

But, thank me
for saving your life, asshole.

Come on, let’s go!

Your intelligence is nonexistent.

-Come on!
-We’re leaving.

What are you doing, Mancipe?

I’m filing all the paperwork
related to J.J.’s case.

Let me ask you something.

How did the recording you told me about,

the one where J.J. scheduled
an appointment with the Mexicans,

make its way to the DEA?

And who asked the President
to stop the operation

in order to capture the Lord of the Skies?

Who leaked that information?

I had nothing to do with it, Prosecutor.

Surely, J.J. called Dixon,

to ask him to stop the operation
in exchange for the Lord of the Skies.

For sure.
It’s the logical conclusion.

INTRODUCTION TO LAW
BERNARDO SOLOZÁBAL

My father,

Judge Bernardo Solozábal,

was murdered twice.

The first time,

he died from a Mini Uzi shot.

Ana María, stay still!

The second time,

he died due to the lies of some men

that still work for his executioners,

the same men that keep
linking him to Escobar.

What do you think
about Ana María’s statements?

Bernardo Solozábal was a real hero...

who, from the shadows...

from anonymity,

gave his life to destroy
the demon of drug trafficking.

"Despite the unfair accusations
made against my father,

I won’t keep quiet.

I will follow his example,

and I will continue to do
what he did from behind the scenes.

I will find the truth".

Daughter...

CARIBBEAN COAST OF COLOMBIA

Alirio.

We need to speak with the guys,
to find out who was left behind.

I’ll start working on it
as soon as this is over, Pope.

All right. Is it safe here?

This is the best place for us to hide.

Welcome.

At least it looks better
than the other one.

Honey.

I got this house with you in mind,

to make you comfortable.

I’ll get some water.

Where’s the kitchen?

Find it.

And take your time.

Ana María, I’m not questioning
the facts, but the evidence.

Are you sure that what
Colonel Tello told you is true?

-He gave me his word, Tito.
-His word!

Considering the situation,
that isn't worth anything.

If you make this information public
based just on what he told you,

two things may happen.

One, he might not support
your allegations.

And two, he might use them
to his advantage.

Haven’t you thought that he probably made
this up in order to clear his name?

I don’t think so.

Remember that he let Popeye escape.

And before he was sent to live overseas,

he was unable to catch him again.

Popeye didn’t escape.

-They let him go.
-Ana María, please.

It’s a fact, Tito.

Remember what happened
the day he was transferred?

-They didn’t let me in.
-That doesn’t prove anything.

-Doesn’t it?
-No.

What about the things
I saw at the rescue location?

There was crossfire. That’s a fact.

But what happened besides that?

There were no casualties.

No one was injured.

Tito, how many times have we covered
this type of news story?

Right.

This is the first time
there is a confrontation

between Police and drug dealers
and nothing happened.

I understand what you’re saying.

I can’t go to the media

and throw such accusations
without proof.

That’s true, but I won’t
stay here doing nothing.

I feel I’m after something big, Tito,
and I won’t let it go.

I won’t stop until I find out
why Tello and his superiors

let Popeye escape.

I don’t understand how we got busted.

We've been careful.
We haven’t aroused suspicion.

Somehow they found us.

You know there’s technology
for everything nowadays.

I just spoke with Gutiérrez.

He escaped by a hairsbreadth.

The ones they didn’t capture,
they filled with bullets.

We will have to recruit more people.

If they found us once,
they’ll find us again.

If we get caught with only
these three cats,

they'll totally wipe us out.

We can’t let that happen.
We have to recruit more people.

We won’t be so lucky next time.

Finally. Agent, how are you?

Ana María Solozábal. Remember me?

This isn’t a good time.

Just five minutes. A couple of questions.

-Ms...
-The day of the escape,

I asked you what was going on.

You didn’t answer, I suppose,

because at the time
you had no information.

-It’s been a while.
-I’m not at liberty to talk about that.

Then, when, agent?

-I need to keep going.
-There are very serious rumors.

The rumors say that you are involved
with J.J. Velásquez’ escape.

Is that true?

Excuse me.

What will you do about those rumors?
Will you allow these rumors

to soil the reputation
of this institution, agent?

NATIONAL PROSECUTOR

Dixon.

-Mancipe.
-Welcome.

Prosecutor.

-Have a seat.
-Cifuentes.

It’s clear to everyone
why we’re here, isn’t it?

To brag about
our accomplishments, Prosecutor?

Cifuentes...

I’m sorry Prosecutor, but I would.

It's not every day
one sabotages an operation

the way you and your agent did, Dixon.

Agent.

No, Prosecutor.

Cifuentes is right.

The DEA and my government
put a lot of pressure on this case.

If I was in the agent’s shoes,
I would be frustrated too.

I assure you, Dixon, that what I feel
is beyond frustration.

I understand. And I don’t judge.

The problem, Prosecutor,

is that what is at stake here
is more important than us.

In fact,

it is more important than J.J.

Gentlemen, we are talking about

the most dangerous man in the world.

A drug dealer that fucked over
both our countries.

The Lord of the Skies is forcing you
to produce drugs at higher levels

than Pablo Escobar.

And he has our country
drowning in cocaine.

There’s no college,

or neighborhood,

that hasn’t been plagued by the drugs

this man has introduced to the U.S.

Hence, what I’ve come to propose

is that we leave our feuds behind
and start working together.

I understand that the Lord of the Skies
will come to Colombia.

Can you imagine, Prosecutor,
if he gets caught here?

Even better, sir.

Can you imagine

if we manage to capture both
the Lord of the Skies and J.J.?

It would be the strongest blow
delivered to the drug trade

since the death of Pablo Escobar.

GUERRILLA-CONTROLLED ZONE

-Alirio.
-Sir.

Bring me the girl, the new one.

-Get her.
-Yes, Commander.

Ximena.

Yes?

Come here, love.

Come here, baby,
the commander wants you.

Sir.

I understand that you
speak fluent English, correct?

Yes, what can I do for you?

Review this document.

Edit it as needed.

How long will it take?

It depends. May I see?

Of course. One or two hours?

The entire document?

No, the first five pages.

About two hours.

In that case, you'd better start now.

Sure.

-Alirio.
-Sir.

-Keep an eye on her.
-Sure.

-If you need anything, let me know.
-Yes, sir.

Can I ask you a favor?

Absolutely. What?

This will take a while
and this computer doesn’t have any charge.

Can you bring me a power cord?

Of course. Anything for you.

Thanks.

What kind of information?

This computer has all the information.

Do you have access?

The commander noticed
that I speak fluent English.

So once in a while he asks me
to translate documents for him.

Yesterday, while I was translating,

I found a couple of things about Popeye.

What things?

The guerrillas from the camp
are sending him

a lot of cocaine. A lot.

Ana María, have a seat, please.

-Thanks.
-Would you like something to drink?

NATIONAL PROSECUTOR

I’m fine, thanks.

I asked you to come
because I have a proposal for you.

I learned that you’re no
longer at the newscast,

and that you are doing freelance work
on certain cases.

A talent like yours shouldn’t be wasted.

I spoke with my head of press,

and we agreed
that it would be a smart move

-to have you...
-No.

I beg your pardon?

Unfortunately, I can’t accept.

Let me at least tell you
what we are proposing.

Prosecutor, you are very professional

and it would be an honor
to work by your side.

But right now I’m working on cases
that I can’t put aside.

You wouldn’t have to.

I know I would.

It would be a conflict of interest.

That’s exactly why I quit the newscast.

We can still go out for a coffee, though.

I understand.

It was obvious what the prosecutor
wanted to propose to me.

He wanted my silence.

He thought that by having me
on his payroll,

he would control my tongue.

I made it clear that I wasn’t interested.

I have a great case in my hands,

and I won’t stop
until I’ve reached the conclusion.

Do you know what I think?

After all is done...

The prosecutor knows exactly
what happened with John Jairo.

He knows why they let
that criminal escape.

Excuse me for changing the subject, but...

Ximena called me to my office.

Ximena Escobar?

-What did she say?
-It looks like she discovered

very important information
about Popeye

in the commander’s computer.

What information?

It looks like our tormentor
isn’t a simple fugitive anymore.

He’s one of the largest
exporters of drugs in this country.

What’s the matter?

You can’t have that attitude
for the rest of your life.

Can’t I?

If you keep behaving the same,
Why can’t I?

All right, honey. Relax, just relax.

I would’ve preferred

that the police wouldn’t have
stopped the operation.

I wish they would’ve killed us all.

Believe me. I want to do things right.

I want very much for this to be over,

to go back to normal.

You and I at peace,

without anyone bothering us.

To be able to go out without fear.

To go to a bar

and have a couple of beers
like we used to.

I’m doing this for you.

Let me out of this.

You know it’s true.

I’m risking my ass for both of us...

for our future.

All I want is to be with you in peace.

I’m doing things right.

You’ve never done anything right.

All you do is hurt others.

Why don’t you turn yourself in?

Leave us all alone.

DAYS LATER

Do it slowly.

Unload and come back.

That’s it.

Here you go, my friend.

Good job.

Thank you very much.

Is it all here?

Yes? Very good.

Come on.

Cool.

Load up fast
because we have to go now.

Come on, let’s go.

Hurry up, hurry.

That’s it.

Serrano! Store it well!

Good, nice and tidy.

GUERRILLA-CONTROLLED ZONE

Sir, how are you?

Where’s the rest room?

-Over there. To the left.
-Thanks.

Ten.

Thanks.

Are you sure of this?

If the Commander finds you
with this...

I know.

Keep guard, please.

I don’t have any other option.

When I get out I’ll need proof to show
that I don’t want to be in here,

and that I don’t agree
with what they do here.

You look flustered.

Relax, everything will be all right.

My friends!

-How are you?
-What’s up?

Welcome.

We’re fine. How are you, my friend?

Let me introduce you.

Alirio, my right hand.

-I trust him unconditionally.
-Chaparrito.

-This way, please.
-Nice to meet you.

Look who’s here.

-The damn lawyer.
-What’s up, México?

Is everything all right?

-Dolls, hello...
-Look at this, finally.

It isn’t much, but with all our affection.

Welcome. Here you go.

This way, look, we have a gym.

We have these little machines
in case you want some exercise.

The house is crazy. It's incredible.

You’ll be comfortable.
It has everything you need.

We are just waiting for your boss.

When will he arrive?

When will the man be here?

Easy, motherfucker.

Be patient.

Easy, faggot.

You’ll meet him...

this week.

All right.

In México, everything is fucked up.

Everybody is after us, faggot...
the feds, the damn DEA, everybody.

That’s why my boss thought that
your proposal to come here

was a good idea.

-Good.
-We need to get away.

That’s good.

I just need to tell you one thing.

I need you to introduce me
to your head of security.

I need him to step down
so I can take over.

I understand your people
must be very...

good and efficient, but...

Just understand my position.
We are on a different level.

I do understand.

Don’t worry. Talk to him,
the one you called "chaparrito".

-This faggot?
-He’ll handle everything.

Go ahead. I’ll catch up with you later.
I need to take a leak.

That’s all right.

Damn, Chicky.

Good.

John Jairo?

Hello.

I’m with the Mexicans.

They are here to prepare
their boss’ arrival.

When is he arriving?

I don’t know.
They haven’t given me a date.

They said it will be this week, though.

Listen to me.

Starting tonight,

they’ll be in charge of the security.

I’ll be unable to communicate
for a couple of days, okay?

Okay.

Remember that I don’t want

your men hanging around here.

If these damn Mexicans find out,

they’ll kill everyone.

All right, understood.

When the boss gets here,

I’ll call you back, all right?

Keep your phone close
and your people ready.
