El Pistolero (2012)

1. "THE GUNMAN"

2. What's up, boss, what do you want us to do?

3. Monitor that area.

4. Don't leave anything unguarded.

5. If you find him, bring him.

6. Take a look over there.

7. Okay.

8. Boss, only the ranch sitter.

9. Take a look over there, and get ready

10. because he's coming in through there.

11. Brace yourselves.

12. Who are those men, boss?

13. It's okay; they're part of the team.

14. Okay.

15. Come with me.

16. What a surprise, man.

17. I wasn't expecting to see you around here.

18. I've been waiting for you.

19. Why did you bring so many gunmen?

20. I was offered a lot of money.

21. I don't get it. What do you mean?

22. Guess what, I was paid to kill you.

23. Who?

24. Who paid?

25. I never give away the names of my clients.

26. I don't need to hear it.

27. It was El Jefe, who else could it be?

28. I can't believe you sold out.

29. It ain't personal, dude.

30. I have nothing against you, but...

31. I've been ordered to kill

32. and I've killed people, haven't I?

33. What's that good for?

34. As far as I can see, things have changed a lot.

35. I'm just doing my job.

36. It isn't my fault there's a price on your head.

37. Remember my business is killing dudes.

38. You mean betraying dudes, fucker.

39. Betraying?

40. No, I would never.

41. It's true I owe being the head of the company to Vicente,

42. but... I'm no traitor.

43. A FEW MONTHS AGO...

44. WELCOME TO BADIRAGUATO.

45. Come with me, guys.

46. Hurry up.

47. We need to take the truck.

48. There's still too much fodder to pick up, man.

49. Show some enthusiasm.

50. Dear friend!

51. Pleasure to see you, man.

52. It's all mine.

53. Listen, what are you doing here in Badiraguato?

54. I hadn't seen you in a while.

55. You know, man, business.

56. It's all good?

57. Going great?

58. Well, you see...

59. I seem to have a pebble in my shoe.

60. That's why I came to see you.

61. Hey... but these people you brought.

62. Poncho is the toughest guy, why would you need more?

63. I know he's alright

64. but I want him to work with me directly.

65. He's been flagged too.

66. I'm looking for new faces who want to work with us.

67. I think I have what you need.

68. Follow me.

69. My boy...

70. you look so much like my son when he was your age.

71. I'm sure your mother is looking for you.

72. Can I have some cookie?

73. Delicious.

74. Hi, Mrs. Carmen.

75. How are you doing?

76. Fine, Mr. Raul.

77. What can I do for you?

78. Sorry to bother you; we are looking for your son.

79. Is he around?

80. He's at the stable.

81. Okay, we're going there.

82. Go ahead.

83. If you'll excuse us.

84. Bye.

85. Why could they be looking for my son?

86. It's ready.

87. Come get him.

88. You're working too hard, man.

89. You're going to get old.

90. Where are those beers, Mr. Raul?

91. The full bottles are in the fridge.

92. The empty ones are in here.

93. Listen, this is an old friend who wants to meet you.

94. Pleasure to meet you.

95. What can I do for you?

96. My man Raul here says you're good with weapons.

97. A little bit.

98. I have handled guns.

99. A little bit? Are you military?

100. Nothing like that.

101. I used to shoot with my dad.

102. Poncho.

103. Yes, sir?

104. Give me the rifle.

105. Take it down.

106. Not anyone can take a bird down with this rifle.

107. Not bad, kid.

108. Not bad.

109. Congratulations.

110. Listen, I don't like beating around the bush.

111. I've heard you're good at shooting,

112. and I want you to work with me.

113. I've told you about my friend.

114. This is one of the most powerful men

115. in Culiacan.

116. You wanted a job?

117. Here it is.

118. Yes, Mr. Raul, but to be honest,

119. now that I see it up close, it's not so simple.

120. Kid, thanks for having us.

121. My man, I think he's no good.

122. It was then when I heard the words

123. that would change my life...

124. forever.

125. Listen, kid, Vicente's enemies

126. are the same men who killed your father.

127. My father was a mechanic.

128. He went to this ranch to repair a tractor...

129. and a group of men showed up

130. and started shooting left and right,

131. killing everyone in the place.

132. My father included.

133. There was not a single day

134. I didn't think about those killers.

135. In fact, I used to keep bullets that were designated for them.

136. Is that true?

137. If you mean the people who got killed at Marquitos'.

138. Yes, they're my adversaries.

139. So you're gonna give me a chance to avenge my father's death,

140. and you're gonna pay me on top of that?

141. I accept under one condition.

142. I normally don't take conditions from my men.

143. But you can say it;

144. we'll see if something can be done.

145. I will not kill innocent people;

146. I won't kill women, let alone children.

147. That won't be a problem.

148. That's a rule for the men who work for me.

149. We have a deal.

150. Poncho here will give you everything you need

151. to do the job.

152. And that's how I entered the business;

153. out of revenge.

154. I had my doubts before picking up the rifle.

155. But once it was in my hands...

156. there was no backing out.

157. Here I was...

158. it was just a matter of time.

159. I felt an uncontrollable urge to kill.

160. I had almost all of them in clear view.

161. The easiest thing

162. would have been to gun them down,

163. given where I was.

164. At least one of them

165. had to know it was me who was sending them to hell.

166. You can share your cigarettes too, you know?

167. Come on, you know I'll share some weed later.

168. Who the fuck paid for this shit?

169. I want you to see my face.

170. I want you to remember my face in hell.

171. Who the fuck re you?

172. Who sent you to kill us?

173. Remember that massacre at Marco's ranch?

174. My father was just working there;

175. he had nothing to do with it.

176. This goes to him.

177. That was my first job.

178. I would've done it for free.

179. I would've even paid someone to do it.

180. The problem came when euphoria started fading.

181. I didn't know whether to ask for forgiveness or not.

182. You're supposed to ask for forgiveness

183. when you regret your sins.

184. But...

185. the thing was I didn't regret it.

186. That was the longest night of my life.

187. It really isn't easy to shut down your conscience

188. when you've taken someone's life.

189. I certainly killed them because they deserved it.

190. But even so, it was a lot to take in.

191. I hope you can rest in peace now, dad.

192. I hope all this was worth it.

193. What's wrong, son?

194. Having trouble to sleep?

195. Yes, mom.

196. You wanna tell me what's going on?

197. I don't know if I should.

198. Are you afraid I would tell on you?

199. Don't worry about that; I won't do it.

200. Don't say that.

201. I can't lie to you.

202. I avenged my father's death.

203. I killed people, mom.

204. I stained my hands with blood.

205. You see?

206. I know, son.

207. You think I don't know why that man came here,

208. the one Raul brought?

209. I know very well what you did.

210. I'm sorry, mom.

211. I hope you can forgive me.

212. I'm not God to forgive you, son.

213. And you had the right to do what you did.

214. Besides, those men killed a good man,

215. your father.

216. Don't look at me like that.

217. I would have never let you do what you did,

218. but it's too late now.

219. All that matters now is what's going to happen.

220. Are you going to continue working with those people?

221. No.

222. I don't think so.

223. I'm not a murderer, mom.

224. I killed those men because I wanted revenge.

225. But I'm not made for this.

226. Listen, son,

227. God's ways are strange and mysterious.

228. But there's nothing in the world that happens without God's will.

229. I'm happy to listen to you, son.

230. So, you're saying God allowed me to take revenge.

231. No, but he did nothing to stop it either.

232. That's something you two will have to work out someday.

233. I'll talk to Mr. Vicente tomorrow.

234. I'm going to quit.

235. Okay, son.

236. That's going to be for the best.

237. Well, I'm going to sleep now.

238. I'm very tired.

239. You should do the same.

240. You look tired too.

241. Alright, mom.

242. Sleep tight, son.

243. Wait here.

244. The boss will call you in later.

245. Alright.

246. That's a nice truck.

247. That job we just did was awesome, brother.

248. The boss is going to be surprised.

249. We have to tell him.

250. - Let's go. - Alright.

251. Dude, come with me.

252. The boss is waiting for you.

253. These are the next ones.

254. They broke into a house, and killed the whole family;

255. women and children.

256. I think you can do this job.

257. Listen, man, I think I'm not suited to this job.

258. We better stop here, okay?

259. You're quitting so soon?

260. Yes, man.

261. If I killed those men,

262. it was only to take revenge for my father,

263. but I'm not interested anymore.

264. Hey, do you think these fuckers are saints?

265. I just told you they killed a whole family.

266. I get that, man.

267. But it's none of my business.

268. Listen, kid... this is no fucking game.

269. One day you're saying yes, the other day you're saying no.

270. That job you did won't go unnoticed.

271. They might go after your family.

272. I'm not afraid of that.

273. Besides, no one was left alive, so I have no reason to worry.

274. That's what you think.

275. People talk... everything can be known;

276. especially when you kill a guy like that one.

277. Think it through.

278. Either you work with us or you die;

279. you and your whole family.

280. Are you threatening me?

281. Of course not; I'm just letting you know.

282. I consider you a part of the team.

283. I just want you to be ready for anything.

284. Alright.

285. Give me some time.

286. I'm sorry, but I can't do that.

287. If we don't act now, those fuckers will run away.

288. Tell me something,

289. how did you feel when they killed your father?

290. Infuriated, pained, angry...

291. it was just too unfair.

292. Well, at least you got a chance to take revenge.

293. Some people can't even get that;

294. and you can do something for them.

295. So, what do you say?

296. Alright, I'll get on it.

297. One more thing: try to keep it discreet;

298. one shot is enough.

299. Look, this house is low profile.

300. You can stay here for as long as you want.

301. That's okay, I'm leaving tomorrow.

302. Alright, whatever you say.

303. What's all this shit?

304. This shit is for you.

305. It was sent by the man who hired me.

306. Is this enough?

307. Yeah.

308. That's it.

309. Alright, man.

310. You need anything, call me.

311. Alright.

312. Okay, friends, this is Los Hijos de Hernandez.

313. See you next time.

314. That's right.

315. Hello, handsome.

316. How are you doing?

317. Doing fine.

318. Buy me a drink?

319. Sure.

320. One drink, please.

321. What's your name?

322. You?

323. I'm Sandra.

324. Nice to meet you.

325. They say the atmosphere is better upstairs.

326. Yeah.

327. It's closed now, though.

328. Why's that?

329. There's this dude, a heavyweight.

330. He's having a private party;

331. he brought his men and lots of girls.

332. How do you know that?

333. I was upstairs,

334. but we were sent down here when they arrived.

335. A lot of men?

336. I don't know that.

337. But they wanted to be alone and get crazy.

338. I can imagine.

339. Okay. I'll be back later.

340. Make sure you will be.

341. I had two options: wait for them to come down,

342. and follow them to a place where I could hit them;

343. or kill them on the spot in sight of everyone.

344. I figured the second one was better...

345. so it wasn't hard to choose.

346. Maybe it was the adrenaline,

347. but it was a lot easier than I'd thought.

348. I suppose I'm the wrong person to say it,

349. but... they deserved it.

350. How much is it?

351. 100 pesos.

352. Thanks.

353. Mom?

354. Mom?

355. I'm home, mom. How are you?

356. Are you angry?

357. What if I was angry?

358. I don't think you care, do you?

359. Don't say that.

360. You know

361. you're the most important person in the world.

362. Where have you been?

363. Where did you stay?

364. Why didn't you call me?

365. I went to Vicente's.

366. He talked you into it, didn't he?

367. I told him this wasn't my thing; I insisted, but...

368. But he convinced you to stay.

369. Listen, mom, those men I killed were bad people.

370. Don't you remember

371. how much suffering they caused us

372. when they killed my dad?

373. So what?

374. You think you are better than them?

375. Besides, that's what the authorities are for;

376. let them take charge.

377. Authorities...

378. They are good for nothing, mom.

379. What did they do for us when they killed dad?

380. Do you remember?

381. Anyway, that's not an excuse for you to become a gunman.

382. You're right, mom, I'm a gunman.

383. But I tried to quit and it wasn't possible.

384. Everything's possible, son; you just have to want it.

385. You know, mom?

386. I better go home.

387. Okay.

388. If that's what you want.

389. As long as you're taking that path,

390. I don't want to know hear from you.

391. No tears are more painful than a mother's.

392. I felt like hugging her

393. and saying I'm sorry for everything I'd done.

394. But as long as I kept working for Vicente,

395. I didn't deserve my mother's forgiveness.

396. The truth is that quitting would be quite difficult.

397. Good evening, young man. Welcome.

398. Hey.

399. Can I try that shirt on?

400. Of course, young man;

401. this is one of the newest things we got.

402. Look how nice it is.

403. How much is it?

404. It's 3,500 pesos.

405. How much?

406. 3,500, young man; it's one of the newest things.

407. It's the latest fashion.

408. Okay.

409. They say money isn't happiness...

410. but is sure looks like it.

411. That makes us even.

412. Thank you very much, man.

413. We're even, and ready for new things.

414. Come here, sit next to my friend,

415. so he can get used to having good things.

416. Well, money is never a bad thing, man.

417. Let's hope we continue doing fine.

418. Of course; don't worry about that.

419. Listen...

420. I wanted to tell you something; sometimes I get nervous,

421. you know, the drinks, the women...

422. and to be honest,

423. I don't want people to know what I do for a living.

424. Kid, don't worry about what people say.

425. As long as we're working together,

426. the law can't reach you.

427. Thank you, brother.

428. By the way...

429. I want to reward myself; I want to get a new truck.

430. A friend of mine owns a car lot.

431. Go to his place and choose any car you want;

432. on me.

433. No, I can't accept that.

434. You can't say no to a person who is fond of you.

435. And I am.

436. - Let's toast. - Cheers.

437. Which one do you like?

438. I want that one.

439. Let me get the key.

440. I quickly became Vicente's most trusted gunman,

441. and of course that changed my life.

442. I never went back home.

443. Damage was done,

444. and I didn't belong to that world anymore.

445. My mother didn't deserve to be let down like that.

446. It feels great to have a new car,

447. to be able to buy anything you want.

448. Maybe that's why so many men enter this business.

449. And if that weren't enough...

450. Who are you?

451. I brought a present from Mr. Vicente.

452. Do you like it?

453. I do. It's nice.

454. Come here. Try it on.

455. Can you help me take it off?

456. Is it necessary to take my shirt off

457. to try this on?

458. I wanted to give you another present.

459. Vicente sent this to celebrate our company's growth.

460. Jimena was one of those women people call a masseuse.

461. And to be honest...

462. she was really good at it.

463. This is a nice view of Culiacan.

464. How much?

465. What the hell do they put in these eggs?

466. I'm leaving. Okay?

467. Aren't you staying for breakfast?

468. - Is that an invitation? - Sure.

469. Welcome, ma'am.

470. Here's the menu.

471. Thanks.

472. Order anything you want.

473. This food looks nice.

474. Dude, I would like some Cocoa Krispies.

475. Cocoa... what?

476. You know, the cereal,

477. the one with the monkey, or the elves... you know.

478. I'll see what I can do.

479. - If you'll excuse me. - Thanks.

480. You're very different

481. from the other men I've come across, you know?

482. Oh, yeah? Why's that?

483. Won't you be offended?

484. No, why?

485. Tell me.

486. You're a good man, and you have a good heart.

487. I don't know what you do for a living,

488. neither do I want to.

489. But be careful.

490. Thanks. I'll keep it in mind.

491. Now that we're being honest,

492. I think you also deserve something better.

493. That's funny.

494. I used to think the same not long ago.

495. Not anymore, though.

496. Why's that?

497. No one can fight their destiny, and this is mine.

498. Do you like it?

499. Well, I am with you; I'm in this place...

500. let's say it's nice sometimes.

501. I couldn't agree more.

502. And just like she was accepting who she really was,

503. I began to accept who I am.

504. I liked nice things; I had money to pay for them.

505. Yeah...

506. yeah, I like it.

507. Hey, bro, what's up with my cereal?

508. I started doing the hardest jobs

509. for the company.

510. It didn't matter how I did them in;

511. the only thing that matter was

512. that the jobs got done in public places.

513. That was Vicente's style.

514. He liked putting on a show

515. so his enemies would get the message.

516. Vicente is not someone to mess around with.

517. That's why people feared him.

518. What's up, man? Party's over.

519. Fuck this.

520. Always been so careful, and I end up like this.

521. Too bad, man.

522. That's what it's like.

523. What's the price on my head?

524. Actually, I gave them a discount.

525. Hey, sexy.

526. You're so hot.

527. What did you just say?

528. Don't you like women?

529. Or did you get scared?

530. Hey, give me your number.

531. Are you on Facebook?

532. Soon, I found a problem:

533. I had a lot of money and time...

534. but I had no one to share that with.

535. And the first person I could think

536. was my friend Gil;

537. a lifelong friend.

538. Who better than him to share a little of what I got?

539. All the corridos and the movies

540. talk about whiskey, women, parties...

541. so that's the first thing I thought about.

542. And to be honest, I had the time of my life.

543. No matter what people say,

544. there's nothing better than having a sexy woman,

545. good music,

546. and of course some great whiskey.

547. Listen, dude, where did you get so much money?

548. You didn't win the lottery; don't think I'm stupid.

549. You just have some fun, and don't ask questions.

550. Cheers.

551. Come on, man.

552. If it's what I think it is, you should give me a job.

553. I want to be a big shot like you.

554. Nonsense.

555. You don't know what you're saying.

556. Sure do!

557. That's why you left your job with me at the ranch, huh?

558. Don't think I'm stupid.

559. Don't be cheap, man, give me a job.

560. You're crazy, dude.

561. Come on; let's take a look at the girls.

562. I did several jobs in a short time.

563. I got shitload of money.

564. Well, it's just a saying;

565. compared to the money Vicente was making,

566. mine was just leftovers.

567. Until we run out of mountains, brother!

568. Take it out and make it sink, you dirty old man!

569. Listen up, who's that vato?

570. Who?

571. The singer?

572. They call him Komander.

573. He sings well.

574. Yeah, he does.

575. Let's keep the party going, brother.

576. From Culiacan, Sinaloa, dude.

577. Listen, kid...

578. I told you there would be a good place for you

579. in this team.

580. You know, money and fun are never enough,

581. don't you think?

582. Well, here we are, boss.

583. We have to keep it up and strong.

584. I like that.

585. Magaly, come here, please.

586. Sit here, next to my friend.

587. Keep him company.

588. Hi.

589. Nice to meet you.

590. Cheers.

591. - Cheers, everyone. - Cheers.

592. The boss is here.

593. Fine.

594. Let him in.

595. What's up, man?

596. Why do your men look so nervous?

597. It's all good, Vicente.

598. Tell your people to behave, and nothing's gonna happen.

599. All right, guys, relax.

600. Tell me what can I do for you, boss.

601. I'm here to get him.

602. Can I know why?

603. He works for me;

604. whatever he's done he did it for me.

605. I'm here to get him.

606. There's no challenging my orders,

607. you know that.

608. Alright, man, there's probably a misunderstanding.

609. Whatever the problem is,

610. I'm pretty sure we can work it out.

611. Not this time, Vicente.

612. Guys.

613. Let's go.

614. Get up! Let's go!

615. Let's go.

616. You can resume the party now.

617. I'm sorry to interrupt.

618. Dad, I think they wanna kill this bastard.

619. Most certainly.

620. But I don't understand why.

621. Take his mask off.

622. Vicente has ordered several executions.

623. You are the one who handled them, aren't you?

624. Yes, I am.

625. Those were clean jobs.

626. You left no trace,

627. and that's a valuable thing nowadays.

628. Well, no one wants to raise the dust,

629. let alone me.

630. You know what I liked the most about your jobs?

631. Any other man...

632. would have mowed down innocent people.

633. But you waited for the right time to act.

634. You really are talented.

635. I don't think you brought me here just to say that.

636. No, you're right.

637. That's not why you're here.

638. Well, can I know why, then?

639. It's hard to find men like you,

640. who carry out executions in the right way.

641. Killing is a dirty job.

642. And the worst things require the best methods.

643. I still don't get it.

644. Vicente has always had an eye for the best gunmen.

645. And you're no exception.

646. But the greatest mistake Vicente's men do

647. is becoming corrupt;

648. they end up abusing their power,

649. and that leads them to a grave sooner or later.

650. I don't think I will be on that list.

651. I've just been doing my job.

652. That's right,

653. which is why I wanted to pull you out in time

654. so the same thing wouldn't happen to you.

655. You may wonder why you're here,

656. and why we pulled you out of the party.

657. I need a guy like you

658. to take on a very important task.

659. Why me?

660. I already said it.

661. You're talented,

662. and you're the right person for that job.

663. As you can imagine,

664. I have a lot of businesses where there's a lot of money.

665. Yeah, I believe you.

666. But what do I have to do with that?

667. I want you to take charge of one of my companies.

668. I don't know anything about business;

669. I'm just a gunman.

670. You're wrong.

671. You know this business very well.

672. The business I'm talking about is the killing business.

673. That's what I'm doing for Vicente.

674. What's the difference?

675. The difference?

676. Don't you know who I am?

677. Kid, if you work for me, you'll take the big leap;

678. you'll be at Vicente's level.

679. I don't believe that.

680. That's just not possible.

681. Of course it is.

682. If I say so, there's nothing to discuss.

683. Alright, but...

684. what do I have to do?

685. The jobs at this company you're going to run

686. involve very important people,

687. so you're going to have to upgrade your strategy.

688. Can I ask something?

689. Yes?

690. Is this a job offer or...

691. are you just letting me know?

692. Nothing escapes you, huh?

693. It's both:

694. I'm letting you know

695. about a job offer you can't refuse.

696. What if I say no?

697. Actually, there are many killers onto you.

698. If you keep working,

699. they're going to find you sooner or later.

700. I don't understand.

701. If I work for Vicente, I'll be in danger;

702. but if I work for you, I won't?

703. How's that?

704. By taking charge of my company,

705. you'll have a power very few have.

706. You'll have men under your command,

707. helping you.

708. Can I really be at Vicente's level?

709. He has a lot of power.

710. Will I get a codename, a rank, the whole deal?

711. Yes, there will be things like that.

712. How about my family?

713. It's really important to me.

714. You'll know what to do.

715. It'd be better not to tell them.

716. Come up with a job,

717. in sales or something like that.

718. But make sure you have them move to a new place;

719. money won't be a problem.

720. There's only one condition:

721. I kill no women, no kids, no innocent people;

722. you know...

723. Don't worry about that.

724. That won't happen.

725. The company was nothing

726. but a team of professional killers.

727. Of course, we worked at El Jefe's command.

728. Our mission was to take on his main enemies.

729. The first thing was to talking to my mother.

730. Something was telling me

731. that El Jefe was not bullshitting me.

732. And I had to get her a safe place for sure.

733. I'm out of it, mom.

734. I... not...

735. I quit.

736. I'm not working for Vicente or his friends.

737. And the best thing is we're still friends,

738. so you have you nothing to worry about.

739. But that doesn't explain the money or the house...

740. You know, mom?

741. I won the lottery!

742. I got a lot of money;

743. I bought this car, a house for you,

744. and I stopped hanging out with the bad guys,

745. and everything will be alright.

746. No, she won't believe me.

747. Mom, you know what?

748. I ran into this uncle

749. and he left us a great deal of money.

750. So I bought a house for you...

751. I don't know, I just bumped into hum,

752. and now we're rich.

753. No... come on, that's stupid.

754. If it was my uncle, she would've known him.

755. No, no, no...

756. I know.

757. Mom, I found a great job... in a different place;

758. it's a great company.

759. They gave me a house, and a Mustang,

760. and everything's gonna be better.

761. What?

762. Leave my house?

763. Have you lost your mind?

764. Where do you think I can go?

765. I don't even have the money.

766. Mom, I'm going to give you money for the move,

767. for your support,

768. and I'm going to choose the house myself.

769. Can I know the reason for this rush?

770. What did you get yourself into?

771. It's all good, mom.

772. I have a decent job.

773. I want a decent life,

774. and I want you have a better life.

775. So, are we going to live together?

776. No.

777. I'm fine, then.

778. I'm staying here; I don't need a better place.

779. Please consider it.

780. You can at least try.

781. No, son.

782. I know you're not going to work in a different place;

783. you're not working for a company,

784. making lots of money.

785. No, honey, you are doing it wrong;

786. you've taken the wrong path.

787. Please quit.

788. You're riding for a fall.

789. Listen to me.

790. I felt like a complete idiot.

791. She was the woman who'd given me my life,

792. the person who knew me better than anybody in the world;

793. even better than myself.

794. I was so stupid.

795. I couldn't lie to her.

796. Don't say anything, son.

797. I'm tired of listening to your lies and excuses.

798. If you don't want to quit, or you can't...

799. God bless you.

800. Just listen to me, quit.

801. Quit it!

802. Okay, mom.

803. At first, everything was working great.

804. I even had less work to do.

805. Having subordinates

806. meant they could take care of the jobs.

807. Did I take too long?

808. You didn't.

809. Were you able to call them?

810. I was.

811. I canceled all my appointments.

812. I'm all yours for today and tomorrow.

813. Today and tomorrow?

814. Cancel the whole week.

815. You should even bring a friend.

816. Oh, honey, you can barely handle me

817. and now you want someone else.

818. Listen, you can't know

819. if I could break the Guinness record

820. for the longest sex marathon, here in Culiacan.

821. That would be interesting.

822. Why don't you keep me for a year?

823. A year?

824. Right.

825. Why don't we get married too?

826. No, we're doing fine like this.

827. You do your thing and I do mine.

828. Let's see who's calling.

829. Don't pick up.

830. It might be someone from the company,

831. and that's really important.

832. See? I told you.

833. This is your new target.

834. His name is Uriel Vargas.

835. The only condition is to deliver his body.

836. Alright.

837. What's wrong?

838. Every time you get a job like that,

839. you disappear for days.

840. And this was a really great chance to be together.

841. I know that.

842. But you said it yourself, my job is very important to me.

843. When are you leaving?

844. Today.

845. That was just one of many jobs I'd been hired for;

846. that name, Uriel Vargas, mean nothing to me.

847. He was just another name

848. on the long list of criminals who damage our society.

849. I know;

850. I'm the last person

851. who should be talking about criminals.

852. But to my credit I'll say

853. my gun has never been stained by innocent blood.

854. That's not my style.

855. It looked like a simple job.

856. Some criminals loosen up when they move to a new city,

857. and they walk around with very few men.

858. Uriel was one of those criminals.

859. He loved showing off.

860. He would spend lots of money and buy drinks

861. in the hottest bar in town...

862. on Sinaloa Boulevard.

863. I saw him from the bar.

864. He was with his girl and his friends.

865. I wanted to finish them off on the spot,

866. but that would make it difficult to move the body;

867. I had to take it with me;

868. it wasn't a good idea.

869. But good Uriel would make things easy for me.

870. We're finally here, baby!

871. Yeah.

872. I wanted to tell you

873. I bought a few I things in the morning;

874. I know you're going to like them.

875. Oh, baby, that sounds good.

876. I hope I do like them.

877. I'll be right back.

878. Go ahead.

879. This is what I call living!

880. Honey, where are you?

881. Don't move.

882. Give me that gun.

883. Who the fuck are you? What do you want from me?

884. You're already dead, but you can save your girl.

885. Tell her to stay where she is.

886. But... what do you want?

887. Tell her to stay there. Talk to her.

888. I came here to get a drink.

889. Okay, grab one for me.

890. Come on, hurry up.

891. Drive.

892. If this is about money, just ask for it.

893. Get in, drive!

894. Drive.

895. You heard me, man;

896. if this is about money, I got sacks full of money.

897. If you say that again,

898. I'm going to shoot your girlfriend

899. before I shoot you.

900. Drive!

901. Honey, where's my drink?

902. Turn it off.

903. Okay, I know I'm screwed anyways,

904. but at least tell me who ordered this;

905. who wants to take me down?

906. That doesn't matter; you're going to die.

907. What's the use of it?

908. I want to take revenge in the afterlife.

909. Tell me who ordered this.

910. It makes no difference.

911. How much money did you get out of this?

912. I deserve to know.

913. How much did you get?

914. I want to know.

915. I didn't get a lot of money; I didn't even want to come.

916. This chat is nice, but I have to go now.

917. Wait—

918. It won't be hard to find you.

919. That's it.

920. Revolucion and Hidalgo.

921. Location found.

922. Here it is.

923. Smile.

924. That's it.

925. Target eliminated.

926. Here is the location.

927. It would be best...

928. if he was picked up before dawn.

929. It had been a simple job; nothing too important.

930. I was far from thinking it was a trap;

931. they just wanted to find me.

932. I'd never gone through something like that;

933. I had always been the hunter...

934. never the prey.

935. I had many men on my payroll.

936. But I needed someone I could trust

937. to take care of my security.

938. Who else if not Gil, my lifelong friend?

939. This is your house?

940. It's awesome.

941. Why don't you bring your mother here?

942. She's gonna love it.

943. She doesn't want to know about my job,

944. or what I did to buy the house...

945. forget about it.

946. Okay...

947. Come on, I'll show you the pool.

948. Dude, you've gotten pretty big.

949. You said they want to kill you?

950. You should have someone write a corrido about you.

951. You're crazy, dude.

952. Don't even think about it.

953. Every top drug trafficker has their own corrido,

954. why wouldn't you?

955. We should even make a poster...

956. an eye-catching poster.

957. It doesn't work like that, bro.

958. This is hard; this is serious.

959. You can have them mention you in a song.

960. A nice band, with girls. What do you think?

961. You haven't changed a bit, Gil. This is serious business.

962. If you're going to work on this, you have to change your mindset.

963. I know.

964. You can wear a vest with your name on it,

965. all customized.

966. What do you think?

967. No.

968. I knew it.

969. Okay, let the other ones be famous.

970. We'll be left behind; whatever you say.

971. This is your new target; his name is Paul Reyes.

972. There are no conditions; just eliminate him.

973. Yes... I accept.

974. Just give me...

975. 48 hours,

976. and consider it done.

977. What's up, man?

978. Hey.

979. Since you became a high rank, it's very difficult to see you.

980. To each his own, I guess.

981. You're right, man.

982. It would be nice to get together soon.

983. Whenever you want.

984. For now, I have a favor to ask of you.

985. You tell me, I'll do whatever I can.

986. Listen, my godson got in trouble.

987. If I'm not wrong,

988. you're going to get that assignment soon.

989. Listen, man.

990. This is classified information; you know that.

991. Wait.

992. I haven't asked you any favors yet.

993. I want you to verify the information

994. and cancel the assignment.

995. My man, you know I can't do that.

996. Don't give me that.

997. I know you can do it.

998. El Jefe and you can do it.

999. Listen, take your time.

1000. My godson is willing to pay off the whole debt...

1001. and even give you some extra.

1002. That way, everybody wins.

1003. What do you say?

1004. I ask you to do it for our friendship.

1005. It wasn't just any favor,

1006. but the man asking me was the man who recruited me.

1007. And possibly the reason I had that job.

1008. Besides his offer was not that absurd.

1009. I can't promise anything.

1010. Send your godson, tell him to talk to me,

1011. and I'll see what I can do.

1012. You can count on that.

1013. And thank you very much.

1014. If I owed anything to the man, this would make us square.

1015. The boss sure lives the high life.

1016. He sure does.

1017. There are women all around him.

1018. And none around us, man.

1019. What are you gonna do? That's work.

1020. What's up, guys? How's it going?

1021. How are you?

1022. This is my friend who wants to talk to Magno.

1023. Everything's been settled.

1024. Okay, fine.

1025. Just a little pat down, for safety reasons.

1026. This one stays here.

1027. Okay.

1028. You can go in now.

1029. So, tell me, man. I'm listening.

1030. First of all, thanks for doing this.

1031. Don't thank me, thank Vicente; he was the one who helped you.

1032. Yeah, I know.

1033. So, tell me.

1034. I know you've been assigned to kill me.

1035. I'd like to make a deal.

1036. What's the deal?

1037. I think I know who put a price on my head,

1038. and I'm willing to pay off my debt

1039. and match the amount,

1040. so your assignment is canceled.

1041. Listen, pal, all I can do is talk to my client.

1042. Whatever he decides to do is what's going to happen.

1043. One more thing,

1044. don't leave town before I give you an answer.

1045. - Understood? - Yes.

1046. Of course, man.

1047. Thanks again.

1048. You have nothing to thank me for yet.

1049. Besides I'm doing this for your Vicente.

1050. Hey, man.

1051. So if your client says no,

1052. you're going to tell this dude you're gonna kill him?

1053. Of course not. Are you crazy?

1054. Get back to work.

1055. You're good people.

1056. Have another drink, Gil.

1057. Make friends with one of these women.

1058. Alright.

1059. - Cheers, bro. - Cheers.

1060. I broke the rules of the company

1061. by looking for the client's name.

1062. I contacted him to negotiate the assignment

1063. on Vicente's godson.

1064. I suppose it was a bad deal.

1065. They would recover money they thought they'd lost,

1066. they wouldn't have to pay for the job,

1067. and up to a certain point

1068. it was a good deal for everyone.

1069. Vicente's godson kept his word.

1070. And as if that wasn't enough, he gave me a brand new Shelby,

1071. worthy of a lord.

1072. But there was someone

1073. who wasn't happy about the deal.

1074. Welcome, boss, pleasure to see you.

1075. It won't be such a pleasure when you know why I'm here.

1076. What could be so serious?

1077. Are you here to take me away?

1078. If I was here for that reason, you would be in one trunk.

1079. No, that's not why I'm here.

1080. I want you to tell me

1081. why you canceled Paul Reyes' execution.

1082. Well, you told me I could stop any execution.

1083. Besides, I didn't do it for myself;

1084. I only did it to help a friend.

1085. And believe me,

1086. I made a good deal with the client.

1087. I know.

1088. I was aware of everything.

1089. And that's exactly what you shouldn't have done.

1090. You realize you blew your cover?

1091. You're right.

1092. I know that was wrong.

1093. And if that's a problem,

1094. it won't happen again, believe me.

1095. Of course it won't.

1096. And I'll make sure myself.

1097. You won't be able to stop any other execution.

1098. If you get the order,

1099. you won't have a chance to negotiate.

1100. Understood?

1101. Yes, sir.

1102. Okay.

1103. That's it.

1104. We'll be in touch.

1105. Whatever you say, boss.

1106. I didn't place great importance on his warning.

1107. I couldn't imagine helping someone else besides Vicente.

1108. So I had nothing to worry about.

1109. Wait for me, guys.

1110. Son!

1111. Still the same story.

1112. And you're doing really well, apparently.

1113. It's not what you think, mom.

1114. Can I come in?

1115. What do you need?

1116. Don't be like that, mom.

1117. You know I love you.

1118. No, son.

1119. If you loved me, you would've listened to me,

1120. and you wouldn't have taken the wrong path.

1121. I know I failed you, and I know I'm no good.

1122. But I need to know about you.

1123. I need to know you're okay.

1124. I'm fine, son.

1125. Thank God.

1126. Just worried all the time

1127. that I might see you one day in the newspaper,

1128. with a bullet in your head.

1129. Don't say that, mom.

1130. I'm serious, son.

1131. Leave that world you are in.

1132. You're riding for a fall.

1133. I know, mom.

1134. And to be honest I don't know how I got to be where I am.

1135. But I can't do that now.

1136. It's too difficult.

1137. It's never too late.

1138. Leave everything behind,

1139. and let's go far away, where no one knows you.

1140. We can start a new life.

1141. Sounds very easy, mom.

1142. Who says it's not?

1143. I can't do that now.

1144. I have too many obligations.

1145. Besides I have a lot of power, money, and respect.

1146. Can't you see that?

1147. You really think that?

1148. You're so wrong.

1149. Maybe I am, mom.

1150. But I love you, and I miss you.

1151. It had been a long time since I last hugged my mother.

1152. Even though she didn't like my job,

1153. it was clear to me that she loved me as much,

1154. if not more, than I love her.

1155. And for the moment, that was enough for me.

1156. Don't say that.

1157. You're going to quit now that you're rising?

1158. I even had the name for our cartel: "The warmen."

1159. Awesome, right?

1160. You're crazy, Gil.

1161. We can't do that.

1162. Hey, if you quit your job, am I going to be your successor?

1163. Whatever you say, dude.

1164. Alright.

1165. I'm serious.

1166. Do you know if there was a party yesterday?

1167. I didn't hear anything; I was with my mother.

1168. Well. We'll find out later.

1169. This is your new target.

1170. What?

1171. You already know him.

1172. This can't be true. There must be a mistake.

1173. Can I reject this offer?

1174. Negative.

1175. No, I'll have to talk to El Jefe.

1176. What is it, Magno?

1177. I just got an assignment, but I think there's a mistake.

1178. I wish there was.

1179. Unfortunately, there isn't one.

1180. That can't be true! What the hell happened?

1181. Yesterday, Vicente's son threw a party in a ranch.

1182. He had too much to drink,

1183. and he went too far with a girl.

1184. He took her by force, and he tried to rape her.

1185. In the struggle, she fell, hit her neck, and died.

1186. That girl was my son's girlfriend;

1187. they were engaged,

1188. they were gonna get married.

1189. When I found out, I talked to Vicente

1190. and told him I wanted to have his son's head.

1191. And he just put him on a plane and sent him out of the country.

1192. At least that's what he said.

1193. It's his problem now,

1194. and he'll have to be responsible for what his son did.

1195. So there's no truce or deal.

1196. Vicente failed me, and he'll pay with his life.

1197. It's an order.

1198. I demand his death.

1199. Alright, sir.

1200. I don't like this, but I'll follow your orders.

1201. Kill me!

1202. Kill me now, fucker!

1203. My sons will cut you to pieces.

1204. Possibly.

1205. Think about it.

1206. Don't make a mistake.

1207. I'm giving you my gun and one bullet.

1208. Now, you'll do the job.

1209. Have you lost your mind?

1210. I won't take my life.

1211. You have no choice, if you want to die with dignity.

1212. Why do you think I would do something like that?

1213. Because if you don't,

1214. I'm going to find your son and give him to El Jefe.

1215. I'll let this be a suicide because we used to be friends.

1216. Deal.

1217. You hear me, Poncho?

1218. For my son!

1219. Okay, guys, you saw he agreed to a deal.

1220. You can let me go in peace, or we can blow each other away.

1221. Fine, sir.

1222. You made a deal with the man.

1223. Dad.

1224. Dad!

1225. Dad...

1226. Wait.

1227. You killed my father!

1228. Maybe I did.

1229. But to be more precise,

1230. you were the one who killed your own father.

1231. If you hadn't done such a stupid thing,

1232. your father would still be alive.

1233. Don't give me that shit.

1234. You killed him!

1235. Listen, kid,

1236. things better stop at this point;

1237. I promised your father I would spare your life

1238. in exchange for his own.

1239. But if you feel like having a bloodbath,

1240. we're in.

1241. Yair, your father made a deal, and we must respect it.

1242. So, Yair, should I let him go?

1243. This is it, man.

1244. This is it.

1245. I miss you so much, dad.

1246. I need you.

1247. If you saw me, you wouldn't recognize me.

1248. I'm a gunman now.

1249. I have money, cars.

1250. You would be angry at me.

1251. I was too young when you left me.

1252. Now...

1253. I carry a gun everywhere.

1254. My mom's suffering, the poor thing.

1255. She also misses you.

1256. She hasn't been to the house I bought for her.

1257. The first time I killed someone, I was really angry.

1258. I remembered you,

1259. but then I thought you would be angry.

1260. It's just that people can be real assholes.

1261. I think of you every day.

1262. God I miss you.

1263. I drink whiskey, and...

1264. expensive wine, I have women...

1265. You wouldn't like who I am.

1266. I don't know how I got here.

1267. I wish I could see you again.

1268. To hug you, to tell you I love you...

1269. to fix your car.

1270. I miss you so much, dad.

1271. I can't quit now.

1272. And I don't want to.

1273. Give me your blessing, wherever you are.

1274. Tell God to look after me and my mom.

1275. Mom, what are you doing here?

1276. You told me you would come here to visit your father.

1277. Yeah, I was here.

1278. What happened?

1279. Why are you crying?

1280. I need to talk to you.

1281. I know, but this is not a good place;

1282. let's go home.

1283. Wait.

1284. It's really important.

1285. You can tell me in the car. Let's go.

1286. - Wait, son. - What's this, mom?

1287. No, son. No!

1288. What are you doing, son?

1289. Get him.

1290. Police!

1291. Drop your weapon!

1292. Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

1293. Don't do something stupid.

1294. I'm sorry, son.

1295. I did this for you.

1296. I knew you were never gonna quit this kind of life.

1297. I'm sorry.

1298. I prefer seeing you in a cell than dead!

1299. I'm sorry!

1300. Forgive me, son!

1301. FOR EVERYONE WHO'S SUPPORTED AND FOLLOWED ME ALL THIS TIME,

1302. EVER SINCE I STARTED MY CAREER.

1303. IT'S BECAUSE OF YOU THAT I AM WHO I AM;

1304. ARE FOR YOU.
