636.
CONTROLLER: Opa-locka Departure, good afternoon.
Radar contact. Climb and maintain 7,000.
King Air 1206 Sierra,
you see anything off your right side?
This is November 1206 Sierra. Negative, Opa-locka.
I got a double hit. I think there's another plane there.
SUPERVISOR: Let me see.
CONTROLLER 2: Go down to 220.
Ghost. One blip, one plane.
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
Yeah.
Oye, Burnett. Our client got delivery. Product's on the road. Good work.
Yeah, but we had a problem before your client showed up.
Somebody tried to rip off the load.
You know a detail shop on Second and Overtown?
I do.
Across the street we found a stash house. 10:00 a.m. Be there.
Here we go.
ZITO: Only two.
RICO: They tried to jack your load. We brought him home and discovered this.
YERO: Haitians stole this two weeks ago.
That's my load. This is my product.
RICO: How'd they know where the drop was?
- How'd they know? - I find out.
See you later.
I see you, I see a load we lost two weeks ago
all in the same place.
Well, you don't like us finding your load, we can go ahead and lose it all over again.
What other suspicions did you mastermind today?
(SPEAKING SPANISH)
We want our product back.
Sure.
How much?
How much...
- For what? - For recovering that.
Nothing.
Nothing?
Consider it an investment
in the future of a fine business relationship.
That is because it's yours. What's yours is yours.
So is this a one-time deal?
Or is something else coming up?
Give them the shipment on the 17th.
- RICO: Conveyance? - By ocean. Out of Barranquilla.
Jose has details.
Lay it out.
You're gonna get the longs and lats for a transshipment point.
Ma'am.
- Do me one favor. - Yeah?
In return for the risks we took in recovering your load,
allow me to buy you a drink.
How fast does that go?
Goes very fast.
Show me.
Where would you like to go?
What do you like to drink?
I'm a fiend for mojitos.
I know a place.
RICO: Partner.
I know what I'm doing.
All right. The secured satellite comms,
longs and lats for the transshipment points, that's all cool.
But I need a vector, not a location.
Ships move, that's why they call them ships.
Ship stops, it's trying to impersonate an apartment building.
At sea, that is very suspicious. Brings about attention.
AWACS, Coast Guard, U.S. Customs, that's all bad.
I take you to the best place for mojitos.
Where is that?
Bodeguita del Medio.
Oh, the Keys?
Havana.
Havana?
Cubans don't like my business.
- And they don't like my passport. - It's okay, the harbormaster is my cousin.
Grab the wheel.
You do business in Cuba with your husband?
I never do business in Cuba.
And Jesus is not my husband.
I'm a businesswoman.
I do not need a husband to have a house to live in.
(BAND PLAYING CUBAN MUSIC)
- You like the mojito? - Mojito's great.
Do you dance?
I dance.
(ISABELLA SPEAKING SPANISH)
You will like it.
Allman Brothers. You know Allman Brothers?
No.
Lynyrd Skynyrd? Free Bird?
- No Skynyrd. - Well, that was the music back then.
And he played all those Atlanta bars.
But his luck was...
Well, my dad never got lucky, so he started trucking.
Yeah, I didn't see a whole lot of him. But we were close.
- You look like your mother? - Why?
She died in Angola when I was 16.
She was a translator.
I show you photograph. It's from wedding.
This is a bad idea.
This is past a bad idea.
And it has no future.
That's right.
So, then there's nothing to worry about.
Come here.
See?
Lucinda somebody's wedding.
Everybody is with couples.
Husbands and wives, they all pose.
But she is the most special.
Let's talk a different kind of deal.
You pay us zero.
Is it December?
Why?
Did Christmas come early this year?
No.
We become partners on the loads we run.
What we want is 25%% of that load in product.
And why, you're thinking,
would I be crazy enough to cut in these gringos like that?
It's because Sonny and Ricardo can deliver to me what no one else can.
We guarantee loads.
Comes up short, we make good.
Your operation will run from now on out risk-free.
And you are the 25%% partner?
You?
What if I tell you your ideas are too big for your skin?
And merely to propose this is a dangerous thing.
Then I would say to you, this has been fun.
Okay. So?
Think of the cash you don't have to front.
Cash is not difficult.
Seventeen.
I would say you're five percentage points away from a deal.
Maybe I'm only one.
You've convinced me.
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
- RICO: What's up? Where are you? - I'm on my way back.
RICO: The meeting with Castillo is in 45 minutes.
- What's up, Sonny. You okay? - Fine, darling.
RICO: So, where you been?
Hit a couple of jazz clubs, fell back to her place.
- Where? - Vedado.
- Where's Vedado? - Suburbs outside Havana.
- You went to Havana, Cuba? - No, Havana, Louisiana.
Don't we have a meet?
You making moves on Montoya's woman?
- No. - You're not making moves on her?
- We're making moves on each other. - Oh, so that's supposed to make it all right?
Something like that.
- So what happened to the first load? - Went to Dominicans in New York.
We think load number two's going to our guys. South Florida. Their big buyer.
- Okay, that's great. - Yeah.
But we wanna go beyond load number two.
- Why are we going exploring? - Who's the "we"?
Only thing you've contributed so far to this is bad intel.
- How's that? - Jose Yero, cocaine producer?
Yero's middle management, part of a bigger transnational operation
run by Arcangel de Jesus Montoya.
Montoya's the new news. Globalized.
Moving?
Colombian coke and H, arms from the Ukraine,
E from Holland, pirated software from China into Brazil.
What's this got to do with the price of tea in China?
We're seeing their ops.
Transpo. You know, money-laundering networks.
It would take years to put together a deal like this.
We want to stay under, run in load number two and keep going,
and hold off busting the ABs or Yero.
We illuminate Montoya's operations from the inside.
No one has ever tread before where we are now.
Well, the answer's no.
We take the Aryan Brothers, the shooters, pressure them for the leak.
It's a bird in the hand.
I'm not changing my op plan for speculation masquerading as intel.
Look, I know undercover requires aggression,
some outlaw attitude. You know, how else do you lie down with dogs?
- Okay, but that... - Go fuck yourself.
Chill. Sonny, chill.
You know what this prick's game is?
He'll get his picture in the Miami Herald off a quick bust,
save his punk-ass career at the slug farm in DC.
- We are not backing off this. - CASTILLO: That's it.
Where you on this?
Change the mission statement.
I have to run it past my ADO in DC.
Hey, slick. Don't try and shine me on.
You don't have the time or the skill.
If I close this down,
I will close it down right now.
And you can sink in Washington.
All right, do it.
You fucking better be right.
- So, what's going on? - As in?
As in, there's undercover and then there is, "Which way is up?"
Oh, you think I'm in so deep, I forgot?
I will never doubt you.
MONTOYA: Did you find it? ISABELLA: Yeah.
Dominion or Blackstone hedge funds?
MONTOYA: Through Hong Kong bank? ISABELLA: Yes.
MONTOYA: Ukrainian shipment?
Eight tons, small arms and RPGs
on the 27th.
Tell me about the deal in South Florida.
Our risk goes to zero.
And Burnett?
What does your intuition tell you?
My intuition about Burnett?
I slept with him in Havana.
And?
A serious man.
Ambitious, but he has to be watched.
After a few good runs, he will renegotiate the deal upwards.
That's my girl.
But Jose Yero thinks you are wrong.
On the next load, he wants to front them silver, but pay them in lead.
What do you wanna do?
I like the diminished risk.
I like businessmen who are competent because you can predict their behavior.
On the other hand, if what you wish is el plomo, the lead, then do that.
After the load is received, we will close their eyes forever.
We will try a few runs with these partners.
I will tell Jose.
(SPEAKING SPANISH)
Hola, chica.
Hola, chico.
(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
Hey, what's up? This is Trudy, my girl.
- It's a pleasure. - Hey, nice club.
I redid it.
And I got places in Medellin, Foz do Iguacu, and Rio.
- You like clubs? - Oh, yeah. I'm a disco guy.
(SPEAKING SPANISH)
In the back.
In Colon, in Panama, a Malaysian freighter will transfer eight tons.
Crates with Russian marking.
Do not open them.
The 4,000 ki's you move into Miami, you keep and release when we say.
So long as delivery goes down our way.
Sure.
But the crates, they come back to Barranquilla.
You want us to break down the load for different buyers?
No. It's one, my main South Florida guy.
RICO: Jose, my ace.
Skies are crowded, man.
AWAC's, ICE, DEA spies in the sky.
Do you have any counterintel you could contribute to the good and the welfare?
YERO: Sure.
Check your e-mail.
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
BODYGUARD: Hello?
(YERO SPEAKING SPANISH ON PHONE)
It's Jose.
- Jose, what is it? - I don't like the Americans.
- Why? - Too good at what they do.
So?
They are wrong.
Somehow, somehow they are wrong.
You ran them. Did you run them?
- Yes. - Do they check out?
Yes.
We made their deal.
And Isabella disagrees with you.
ISABELLA: Once I had a fortune.
It said, "Live now. Life is short. Time is luck."
You got assets somewhere?
Insurance?
Why?
Things go wrong.
The odds catch up.
Probability is like gravity.
You cannot negotiate with gravity.
One day...
One day you should just cash out, you know.
Just cash out and get out.
- Yeah? - Yeah. As far and as fast as you can.
Would you find me?
Yes, I would.
This is very Cuban. The protective male talking.
It's the talk of a man.
If he were your husband,
he would never put you at risk.
And he would never put you within 1,000 miles of anything
that could hurt you.
And where would you be?
A while longer still in this business, and then I'd find you.
- Would you? - Yes, ma'am.
If you couldn't, I would have left the only thing I know
since I was 17.
But none of this will happen.
Because what do you see around?
Look around you.
It's controlled by Arcangel de Jesus Montoya.
RICO: Let me talk to Fujima.
Okay, go ahead.
Listen, I want you to issue an alert.
An informant has revealed that a freighter
departed Barranquilla
for South Florida with plans to transship contraband to go-fast boats
in broad daylight one day next week off the coast of Miami.
Okay.
For Customs, you say Monday.
For FBI operations in DC, you say Tuesday.
FBI Miami, you say Wednesday, DEA on Thursday,
Coast Guard on Friday. And keep it classified, keep it discreet,
keep it out of interagency communications.
Yero hit me back.
He says U.S. Assets expects our transshipment load on Tuesday day.
Tuesday day only went out to FBI Operations planted in DC.
So what's up?
Anything could be in those crates out of Odessa.
This one has too many moving parts, too many unknowns.
It's your call.
Where you at?
The message from Yero locates the agency and the office
where the leak is coming from. I call that progress.
So, let's take it to the limit one more time.
RICO: Move!
We got to go. Rapido.
Let's go. Let's go. Come on, let's go.
- How we looking? - I can take one more.
RICO: Good. Let's move!
(SPEAKING SPANISH)
That's it. Take off.
Let's hit it.
All right, Julio, break the lines and straighten the load.
JULIO: Break the lines.
We'll rendezvous in about eight hours.
It's right in their own backyard.
And that's why today, more than ever, homeowners are asking,
"What can we do to make our backyard a paradise,
"a vacation destination you can visit anytime,
"without the hassle of air travel, or even starting the car?"
We'll answer these questions and much more.
(PLANE FLYING OVERHEAD)
Be loaded up in a minute.
(DIALING ON TELEPHONE)
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
Who are you? Who is this?
Shut up and listen.
There's new activity in the tropics.
We turn things over to meteorologist Ryan Phillips. What's developing?
That's when Hurricane Danny formed out across the Atlantic Basin.
And now we have our own tropical troubles as Hurricane Ernesto, a category...
Somebody's proving it's right now.
Yeah.
And we've got some good news about your electric bill.
Your rates will not be going up.
MAN: Say hello, honey.
Some nice friends you got.
Urban trailer trash with B.O. And a noisy fucking...
MAN: Yeah.
They know.
Pay attention.
I will now tell you when and how this load will get dropped.
This is happening our way.
You have 30 minutes from right now to enter Government Cut.
Head up the Miami River. You have 15 minutes
to make it to the First Avenue bridge.
When you're there, I'll call you with the exact drop point.
You fuck up, we fuck her up.
COLEMAN ON PHONE: It's me. We're on.
What's the deal?
For doing the deed, 30%% off the load.
RICO: J.C.!
