1 Previously on Queen of the South...

You sold us out.

The judge doesn't know we found his rat.

We can use that.

This lady just bought your life.

I know you're in contact with Marcel.

Are you here for you or Lafayette?

I'm only here to help him.

Who are these boys?

Boys the judge sent to juvie.

We paid him 5 grand a case.

State paid us $45,000 a year to lock 'em up.

All those lives he destroyed.

Man like that has it comin'.

You're not upset?

No.

I'm pregnant.

I want you to stay, but you and me,

it can't happen.

Maybe in some other life

but not this one.

- What do you want? - A press conference.

You're going to clear Dumas for the murder of your son.

_

I want his head.

- What the hell? - Get in.

Now.

That's a lot of money.

It's $3 million.

- It's the judge's cut. - Not anymore.

Tables have turned. He's under your thumb now.

For now.

Blackmailing Lafayette is only temporary.

We need to find his bank accounts.

What do you wanna do with the money?

Give $1 million to the men for their hard work.

Sí, jefa.

What about the other $2 million?

Once we release the information,

those kids Lafayette sent to jail

are gonna need lawyers.

This will pay for them.

Make an anonymous donation to the Innocence Project.

Yes.

Kelly Anne.

- Yeah? - Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm sorry we haven't talked about the baby.

You've been busy with Teresa.

I don't want you to think that I'm not happy,

because I am.

It's just m-more complicated than that.

You know, I'm-I'm really worried about...

Of course you're worried, Kelly Anne.

- Well... - After what happened to Tony,

I swore that no child

would ever be anywhere close to our business.

But that was before.

Hey, look at me.

I swear,

I will never let anything bad happen

to our baby.

He's gonna have everything I didn't have as a child:

Safety and money.

Love.

Yes,

and love.

- Let's go tell Teresa. - Oh, uh, hold on, just...

I'm not even two months along, so can we...

can we wait just a little bit?

If you think it's right.

But let's not wait too long, okay, Kelly Anne?

I don't like keeping secrets in our family.

And neither does Teresa.

And no one can tell you what happened

or where he is?

I'll get back to you right away.

That was Taza.

He didn't get his shipment from Sinaloa,

and he can't get a hold of Boaz for two days.

Maybe he's just sleeping it off somewhere.

...Cabrón is always a problem.

- What did Boaz do now? - No one can find him.

I'll make some calls.

It's time for the judge's news conference.

We are currently waiting

for the press conference called by Judge Cecil Lafayette

to begin.

This call came as quite a surprise,

as the judge is not known for making many public statements...

So... what's this all about?

Teresa told Lucien she got the target off my back.

Judge Lafayette's gonna make some kind of announcement.

Do you believe her?

If there's anybody I trust to make that happen,

it's her.

Judge Lafayette's press conference

has been unexpectedly canceled.

In related news, the Louisiana State Bar Association

is offering a $2-million reward

for any information leading to the arrest of Marcel Dumas

in connection with the murder of the judge's son,

Davis Lafayette.

We will continue following this story

and bring you more after the break.

I have a lot of people depending on me.

Some days, it feels like the whole business...

What happened?

There's a $2-million reward for Dumas now?

He knows I can release this information.

Maybe he's decided to turn us in.

The cops would already be here.

They might be on their way.

Maybe he's callin' our bluff.

No. This is personal.

It's about not losing power.

It's Dumas.

Marcel.

Is this how you fixed it?

I made a deal with Lafayette

for him to go on TV and say that he made a mistake,

that you didn't kill his son.

Oh, is that it? And you believed him?

I blackmailed him.

I have proof that he's corrupt.

Well, he doesn't seem to care,

and now I got half of New Orleans out for my head.

It's enough to turn anyone into a traitor.

By now, they probably have checkpoints

up on every road out of the city.

Let me help you.

If anyone could smuggle me out of town, it's you.

Tell me where you are.

I'll send someone right away.

Okay, be careful. Bye.

Take him across the state line.

I'll have the plane ready for you.

- Orale. - I'll go.

No one knows me here.

It'll be easier for me to make it out.

That's a smart play.

Call me when you're out of the city.

George already has a setup in Belize.

- Maybe we just do that. - No.

We should release the information to the news.

We can't; Without the bank accounts,

we cannot directly tie the judge

to the prison kickbacks.

And that zip file will not hold up

in a court of law by itself.

Find the bank accounts.

We've been looking for you.

I know.

I tried.

Synced & corrected by -robtor- www.MY-SUBS.com

Just say the word,

and I'll take care of this pendejo once and for all.

You make the rules, jefa, and I know this.

But there was no way I was gonna let el... juez live,

not after what he did to Javier and Emilia.

I tried... but I couldn't.

So you can kill me if that's what you want.

I made my peace with it.

Two cop cars just pulled up outside.

Let him up.

Párate, cabrón.

What do you want?

You know damn well.

The judge allowed you to do your dirt in our town...

but what you did to him, that's a bridge too far.

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

Lafayette is dead,

and you know full well he is.

His car looked like a slaughterhouse.

I did not know that until just now.

I had nothing to do with it.

I don't think you understand.

I will not rest until his killer

is rottin' behind bars or dead.

Like I said...

I had nothing to do with it.

This is New Orleans.

We don't let people murder our own and get away with it.

Not even a Mexican cartel.

I'm at your mercy.

Take him out of here.

Take him!

Take this with you.

Find out what's going on in Miami.

I need to know it's under control.

I was expecting Pote.

Teresa thought it'd be better if I came.

How come we never met?

I been working overseas.

- I'm James. - Marcel Dumas.

You'll pardon if I'm a bit cautious.

I understand.

Where we going?

Plan's to get you out the country.

But first we need to cross the state line.

It's not safe to fly out of New Orleans.

I'll need to make a stop first.

That's not a good idea.

You may be right,

but I still need to.

Nacho said everything is running smoothly in Miami...

for now.

So maybe we pay Captain Gamble.

He worked for Lafayette.

Lafayette took money. Maybe he will too.

If I pay him, I will be admitting

I had something to do with this.

You heard him. He's out for blood.

Why don't we just release the information from Wheeler?

It makes the judge look guilty.

We don't have the bank accounts.

The zip drive alone is not enough.

It's too circumstantial.

Marcel is still the prime suspect.

So we give up Boaz.

He's guilty, and he disobeyed you.

No, Boaz es un... loco.

We cannot trust that he's not gonna talk to the feds.

Let's talk about our business.

Sinaloa, the corridor, Miami...

All will blow up.

- There's only one option left. - No.

Marcel is innocent.

Teresita...

you said it yourself.

The captain is not gonna stop knocking on our door

until he has a suspect.

Either one of us go down for this,

or we all do.

_

Orale.

Adios.

We have a problem in México.

Gustavo says that our shipment's being held

in the port of Altamira,

that Boaz made a deal with some guy there,

but Gustavo cannot get a hold of him.

Tell him to pay them whatever it costs.

I don't care how much.

Appreciate you comin'.

Have you lost your mind,

being out in public like this?

I needed to pay my respects in person.

Unnecessary.

I owe you my life, Lucien.

I was a stupid kid lookin' for trouble.

You took me in, gave me family.

Easy call.

Your light shone the brightest.

Without you...

I'd be rotting in a cage somewhere right now,

if I was lucky enough not to catch a bullet

before I got there.

Marcel, you were the son that I wished I had,

complete with all the times you drove me crazy

with your big ideas.

I warned you about messin' with ole Lafayette.

You did.

It's not much,

but it's all I had on hand.

Should at least tide you over till you get yourself settled.

I'm in your debt once again.

You keep your head down, now.

Trust no one.

I love you.

I want you to confess to Lafayette and his son's murder.

Before you answer,

I will do everything I can

to make you comfortable in prison.

I will take care of your family.

You want me to repay you for saving my life.

I'd rather you just shoot me here.

Go on. Right here.

I'm trying to save Marcel,

- not kill you. - Who you kidding?

I'd be target practice for everyone inside...

Guards and inmates.

I ain't gonna do it.

I can't.

Do you know anyone else who would consider it?

Man... you don't get it.

They don't want nobody else.

He's got a $2-million bounty on his head.

Brother ain't gonna last the night.

Just sayin'.

What's happening?

We're being tailed.

Of course, we're not gonna find

any secret bank accounts, because there are none.

Why didn't I think of this before?

- Huh? - We're not gonna

find any online proof the judge was taking kickbacks

from sentencing those kids.

He probably buried his money in a mattress somewhere.

Look, the judge was old-school.

He doesn't know anything about passwords and clouds,

and he probably thought the government knew too much

of what he was doing anyway.

So how did he keep track of it?

He must've had a book or something,

maybe a spreadsheet, something with a paper and a pen.

A ledger... which is what Cole would do.

He would keep three books in a safe,

one for himself, one for the clients,

and one for the cops.

Why didn't I think of this before?

So we need to find his ledger.

Yes, it's the only thing that makes sense.

I'll send someone to search for it.

I need you to make a list

of who works under Boaz in Sinaloa.

I haven't been in Sinaloa in three years.

Make some calls. Be discreet.

Once you have the list,

I want to meet them in person.

So you've decided.

I have to be prepared to replace him.

- You can't lose 'em? - I've got a plan.

They're cops.

Hold on.

Shit!

We shouldn't have made that stop.

They're still on our ass.

Got him.

Fu...

That was Gustavo about the port of Altamira.

He says that the guy that Boaz usually deals with

got fired and that everyone down there

is on hyper alert, especially the new guy

who replaced the guy who got fired.

Well, our whole pipeline shuts down

if we can't get our product through that port.

Do we have anyone else there on our payroll?

Gustavo thinks there might be,

but right now, he doesn't know who can or cannot be trusted.

We need Boaz.

Help me with this tarp.

- Where are we? - It's one of our safe houses.

Thought we were getting out of state.

Oh, we are. But this car's burned.

Somebody tipped off those cops,

and my best guess is your friend in that Cadillac.

I told you...

Lucien's like a father to me.

He wouldn't do that.

Nobody else knew what kind of car we were in,

- not even Teresa. - Watch your mouth.

Man just gave me a bag full of cash.

Why would he do that if he was gonna turn me over?

Maybe he likes you in prison.

He's taking over your business now, right?

We got a problem in Altamira.

Let me guess.

Pendejos won't let our shit through.

Can you fix it?

Can't guarantee it's gonna change anything.

I know. I just need my phone.

Okay.

I may not approve of your tactics,

but you've been effective.

And up until this point, you've been an asset.

Thank you.

And congratulations.

For what?

You're pregnant, right?

What?

- Why would you... - Your color.

_

And when she was pregnant with Kique,

she had the same glow.

- Well, I'm not pregnant. - That's good.

You wouldn't wanna bring a child into this world.

Trust me. I know.

Losing Kique...

was the worst thing that happened to me.

I'm sorry.

Oh, hi. I was lookin' for you.

I need to pop out for a jiff,

but I'll only be gone, like, an hour, two max.

Where you goin'?

Um... there's just a couple of finishing touches

with the waterfront property,

and the realtor called, and she wanted

- to talk to me in person. - Mm.

You sure you don't want, you know, some company?

Yeah! You know what, though?

There's so much goin' on, and I don't think it'd be good

if both of us disappeared on Teresa,

so I'll be back, I promise.

Bye, sugar.

_

You know about our problem.

It's like clockwork.

Every second Thursday of the month, they crack down.

I lose my guys. I find new ones.

Caused enough damage.

Least I could do is fix one.

Yeah, Rosario

with the red lipstick and the sexy ankles.

No, cabrón, nobody dies.

Jefa don't play like that.

Just do what I said.

_

There you go, jefa.

Simple.

Nothing with you is simple.

I can tell you how it all works.

I'll give you all my connections,

my arrangements and deals.

I don't want your business to be affected by my mistake.

So have one of your men bring me a notebook,

and I'll write it all down.

What's going on?

The cops caught up with us as we were heading out of town.

- How? - Dumas wanted to make a stop.

Met an old guy in a Cadillac.

- Lucien. - I think he tipped them off.

The car's burned.

Safe house. Pearl River.

- I'll send another car. - Okay.

Listen.

You should know... Lafayette's dead.

Who did it?

Boaz.

Shit.

When Dumas finds out,

he'll think we tipped him off.

I know.

What's going on?

That's what I'd like to know.

Teresa didn't lie; She didn't know

the judge was dead until after we left.

You cut off his head.

It was against her orders.

Boaz Jimenez.

You know him?

Had a little run-in when Teresa was in the hospital.

That maniac takes orders from no one.

I don't think we'll have to worry about him much longer.

Until Teresa turns that asshole over to the cops,

I'm still the most wanted man in the country, so...

I'll be taking those keys.

All right.

But there's a BOLO out for that car.

You'll never make it across the state line.

Sure as hell not hangin' around here.

There's a $2-million bounty on your head.

Walk out that door, you're dead.

Oh, fu...

Luis, bring Boaz, please.

- Mm-hmm. - Gracias.

_

It's okay.

It's just business.

Think about it.

If Teresa wanted to turn on you,

I could've handed you over to the cops at any point

and collected the money.

You people don't need the money.

You'd be in it for something else... down.

A deal.

- Immunity. - No.

You're wrong about her.

She's not that person.

In fact, she's been busting her ass

trying to prove your innocence.

Bullshit.

She found proof that the judge was taking kickbacks

in exchange for sentencing juveniles.

It's been goin' on for years.

How exactly is that going to help me?

They want me for killing Judge Lafayette and his son.

That has nothing to do with his corruption.

No, but now you got thousands of suspects for the murder.

None of this helps me now.

It's a long game, and this is how it's played.

Long game?

You cut off the man's head,

and they want to put me away for it.

Your long game is rigged against me.

I like a shorter version, okay,

where Boaz goes to jail for what he did.

How 'bout that?

In fact, James,

if Teresa is really on my side,

she can just do that right now.

We can, uh...

prove that the judge was dirty together.

Like friends.

Oh, shit. Hell, she's not picking up.

It's not you. She's dealing with Boaz...

What would you do if you were me?

You know the answer to that.

Got one less bullet in my gun.

That's why I don't run a cartel anymore.

That's why I'm still standing here now.

I'm impulsive.

But you aren't.

That's why you're the boss.

Here's all you need to know

to run the business in Sinaloa.

And I know why you haven't pulled the trigger yet.

You're happy I did it.

I know my timing sucks

and my style's not your style.

But that motherfu... er should've died

the first time he stuck his hand out.

You know it.

And I know it.

From what I understand,

you know Teresa almost as well as I do.

She is all about loyalty.

Right?

Since the first day we met, I've seen her risk her life

again and again for people in need...

Complete strangers.

I wasn't just overseas this past year.

I was out.

I could've stayed gone and never looked back.

Maybe that would've been the smart thing to do.

But I came back because it's what she would do,

not just for me but for you.

I think you know that.

Deep down...

you know you can trust her.

Go back to Miami, Boaz.

Take care of the business.

Don't cross me again.

Thank you, jefa.

Just the man I was looking for.

Lucky me. Cuff him.

What's going on?

Well, I have security footage

from a power plant near Honey Island Swamp.

Your man here can be seen dragging

what's left of Judge Lafayette's body

out of the back of his Mercedes.

What's it gonna cost to make this go away?

You're attemptin' to bribe an officer of the law.

You know I was paying Lafayette.

I can pay you.

You're offerin' me blood money.

It spends the same.

Shut up.

You heard the judge's wife was, um...

Was an ill woman.

Well, my mother was her nurse.

I practically grew up under his roof.

Put me through night school.

And now you expect me to just...

take your money and look the other way.

It's $3 million.

$3 million.

That's how much you was paying the judge?

Per month.

Well, if I'm gonna play ball, I need somethin' from ya.

Someone has to hang for the judge.

And I'm not leavin' here without that someone.

We can hide you somewhere in Mexico.

You just gotta lay low until things settle down.

What if it can't be fixed?

Then you disappear,

start a new life.

Walkin' away...

It ain't that easy.

Yep. It's hard leaving your people behind.

That's why I came back.

You came back because you're in love with her.

Hey. Where is he?

What are you doin' here?

Don't.

Go on, put the gun down, now.

Put the gun down.

I'm sorry, Marcel.

I trusted you.

I swear.

I swear.

But nothing, nothing...

Whoa.

Who's he?

Uh...

Uh...

I'm... so sorry.

I'll just... I'll be right back.

Excuse me.

- What are you doing here? - What am I doing here?

- Yeah. - What are you doing here?

I'm at an NA meeting.

Kelly Anne, you're pregnant! You're using again?

No! Of course not!

Then I don't understand what you're doing here!

You wouldn't understand.

Then make me understand.

You think I'm afraid to bring a child

into our world, but that's nothing.

That's gonna be easy compared to...

Compared to what, huh?

Me.

Compared to me.

I'm worse than the cartel.

I'm a hundred times worse.

You're worse than... That doesn't make any sense!

I'm completely unfit to be a mother.

I'm an addict, and I'm a rat, and I'm a liar,

and I killed my husband.

You don't even trust me. You followed me here.

You were ready to shoot me!

Shoot you?

I was not gonna shoot you, Kelly Anne!

- You don't know that. - I thought you were in trouble!

You were acting suspicious. You lied to me.

I thought you were having cold feet.

I am!

My feet are freezing!

What if I ruin this child's life?

W-What if I can't handle it and I start using again?

I'm sober now, but I will always be an addict.

Kelly Anne,

why you're only thinking of the bad stuff, huh?

How 'bout all the good that you do?

Yeah? Like what?

You could have disappeared into thin air.

You were free.

But when Tony needed you,

you came and saved his life

without for one moment thinking about

what could happen to you.

That... that is what a mother does.

That was different.

You're the kindest, most generous woman

that I've ever known,

with so much love in your heart

that you have no idea what to do with it.

And our baby...

Our baby's gonna love you as much as I love you.

Okay.

I didn't think that cop was on the take.

No. He was happy to take the money.

But he needed someone to arrest.

I'm gonna do everything I can to help him.

You know there's no guarantee of that.

What about Boaz?

On his way back to Miami.

I promised Dumas

that there was no way you would hand him in.

I didn't have a choice.

The first thing you learn

is, the war never ends.

Recovery is an everyday struggle.

No matter what you try and do,

you're never truly safe.

And those demons that you wanna forget,

lock 'em in a box...

They'll keep comin' after you,

reminding you of everything you wanna forget...

Everything you've ever done wrong...

Everyone you've ever failed...

All the damage you've caused...

And the people you've lost.

And you'll wanna give in...

Just take a hit...

just have a drink.

But it's a choice...

An excruciatingly painful

and impossible-feeling choice.

But for me...

Today...

I'm gonna choose to keep fighting.

I'm gonna choose to keep the demons at bay.
