for months

with piss-poor results.

In my quest to become the most

daring illusionist of our time,

my bravery is matched

only by my blind stupidity.

Ah.

Isn't that dangerous, Charlie?

Danger is often just an illusion

created in our minds.

But when danger

becomes a reality,

it must be met head-on.

With an illusion.

All right, little fellow.

What's wrong, Lonnie?

Lost my watch.

It's...

twelve-thirty.

That's my watch.

He took my watch.

Sit down, Lonnie.

Give me my watch,

you shakey old son of a b*tch.

You saying I took your watch?

No, Sam.

I-I think I left my watch

at the truck stop.

My mistake.

Oh, it's no mistake, mister.

Gotcha! Just kidding, pard.

There you go, Rack.

You got her fixed?

Good as new.

All right, man.

You're the best.

Jeff, we'll see you, buddy.

- See you.

Hey, old Charlie boy

gave me a big old jug

of the circus jolly last night.

Yeah?

- I like it.

Hey, wait. We forgot Harveyetta.

No, your girlfriend's staying.

Hooker.

Sixty-two miles to showdown.

I can't wait that long.

You gotta pull over.

I gotta pee.

We just left 35 minutes ago.

You can't hold it?

The circus jolly is running

right through me. Pull over.

Jesus Christ, Lonnie.

Use that cup.

Look, I don't know about you,

but it takes two hands

to wrangle what I got.

Would you like to hold

the cup for me?

Oh. Ooh.

Hey, fellas.

Oh-h-h-h.

Oh. Oh.

If this thing didn't have

a hole at the end of it,

it'd look like

a football right now.

They got great acoustics

in here, Rack.

I really like it here, Rack.

They got some really friendly

people down here.

Do you think we could come back

when we're not working?

# Well, how did I

Wind up down here #

# In Mexico... #

Okay, guys, let's try to

be as inconspicuous as possible.

Tengo gusto del queso. Ha.

How about that sh*t, Rack?

I like cheese.

You know what I'd like?

I'd like for you to give me time

to think here for a minute.

You know what Rack?

If we're gonna blend in,

we need to know these stuff.

I can't help it that you're

gonna be at a disadvantage

because you don't know Spanish.

Not right now, little buddy.

Hey, kid, do you speak English?

No comprenda.

Are you sure you

don't speak English?

A little.

- Yeah.

What's your name?

- Chico.

Chico, good.

You know who this guy is?

No, seor.

Manuel Garza.

You know Manuel Garza?

Si, seor. Gato Diablo.

No bueno.

Hey, you're telling me

"No bueno."

You wanna make $50?

Si.

- Yeah?

Si, seor.

- All right,

You wait right here, okay?

Lonnie, write your cell phone

number down on a paper.

Oh, yeah, right.

My truck, my piece of paper,

my cell phone number.

Give me that damn necklace.

Hey, Chico. Come here, bud.

All right.

You make sure Gato Diablo

gets this, okay?

Si, seor.

Seor.

I hope many beautiful women

come to your funeral.

Hey, Skunk, keep an eye on Tito.

That kid's a really fast runner.

What are we gonna do?

Let's go in this cantina

and wait on his call.

Seor Gato, Seor Gato.

Stop that boy.

Whoo!

That is margarita.

I believe, that's the biggest

margarita I've ever drank.

They do not mess around

in Mexico, I tell you what.

You think he's gonna call?

He'll call.

Look at that donkey's ass

hanging off the wall over there.

Somebody mounted the wrong end

of that thing.

I bet if we walk around

the other side of the building,

it'll just be stick...

Y'ello.

Yo.

Oh, Mr. Deputy.

Are you enjoying your stay

in beautiful Mexico?

I've lost my

sense of humor, where's Annie?

No, no, no. Not to worry.

We are taking great pleasure

in caring for her.

You touch her and I'll kill you.

It's not her I want.

It's you.

You bring Annie

to Rusty's Cantina.

Rusty's Cantina, huh?

Good margaritas.

Okey-dokey, Mr. Smokey.

I'll meet you at sundown.

Bring my brother

if you want to see her alive.

Let's go.

Burn him.

Your boyfriend.

He sounds like a very nice guy.

I look forward to our meeting.

I was wondering, do you think

I should wear this or this?

I think I will bring them both.

Some really scary-looking

guys down there.

Hey. What are you doing?

I'm blending in.

Well, you look ridiculous.

And he doesn't?

It's showtime, boys.

They're pulling in.

What do you see?

About eight or 10 of them.

There's Manuel,

and they've got Annie.

There's Johnny Franks.

I knew that bastard had

something to do with this.

Get that Mexican in the truck.

I knew I should have

brought a suitcase.

Lonnie.

What?

- Forget the sombrero.

Rack, I paid 8 bucks for this.

I've always wanted one.

Besides, right now

it's a disguise.

But later it's a souvenir.

Hold that, give me the hat,

put all this stuff in a bag

and let's go, okay?

And bring a pillowcase with you.

Pillowcase...

Remember, when Tito is inside,

lock the doors.

Welcome, Mr. Deputy.

I see you're right on time.

Where is Annie?

What is the rush? Sit down.

Have a drink.

I don't drink with a**holes.

Tell me, what is keeping me

from killing you right now?

That was a perfectly good

donkey's ass.

Ready to deal?

Take your big gun away

from the head of my brother

and release him.

First, where's Annie?

Right here, Rack.

Buck?

How did you get involved

in this bullshit?

Bullshit?

Well, I don't mean

to toot my own horn,

but United Farm Enterprises

is home to the biggest

meth lab in Oklahoma.

I provide the land

and the buildings.

And me, the manpower

and the distribution.

I see you're in bed

with that damn DA, huh.

Levin? Oh, he's no problem.

Give him a little whiskey

and some cash,

couple of fat Mexican whores,

he's happy as a pig in sh*t.
