- Are you kidding me?

Okay.

- Reception. Can I help you?

- Yeah, Hi, uh...

I need some help.

We are actually looking for our friends.

Hector.

How much is a coyote these days?

About 10,000 or 15,000.

Why? Are you thinking of being one?

I do not blame you.

- The NSA also tracks serves up $10,000?

- Yes.

Do me a favor.

Bring me the list of names of all the Americans.

I need you to be more specific.

Men.

18 to 35.

In our region in the past 24 hours.

Uh, is there any suspicion of murder?

No. Homicide, maybe.

ACCESS RESTRICTED. ONLY WITH VALID PAPERWORK.

We need to look into your bag, ma'am.

- Hello?

- I see you're making progress.

The next time we speak,

you'll be on the other side.

- Don't try anything stupid.

- Hey, wait. I wanna talk to her.

I need to know if she's okay.

Hello?

APARTMENT FOR REN You're looking for something to steal?

I thought of going through drugs,

but I guessed you have that over already.

Get in. I'll take you to plan B.

Come on.

Are you sure you wanna ride with me

and these drugs?

I'm not planning

on getting caught, are you?

I'm sorry trying to steal your bag.

You were an easy mark.

Not, really. Thank you

for pulling me off the track.

I owe you my life.

What's the deal with this guy, Pedro?

He's a coyote.

He will help you to get across

but I don't trust him.

Why not?

You have money?

- Not much.

- You need money.

A good coyote is expensive.

- Do you want me to come with you?

- No. I got this.

But thank you.

I still owe you.

We're even.

How can I help you?

I need to see Pedro.

Who sent you?

None of your f***ing business!

Andrs, huh? Get in there.

I'm here to see Pedro.

Go do something.

A gun?

I think you might sit down yourself. Sit down.

Andres is who gave you this pistol or you are so bad-ass motherf***er you took it from him.

- I guess the former?

- He said you could help me.

- I need to get across the border.

- Hey, I thought white boys cross the border legally.

It must have something to do with this bag, right?

I have to get across the border cross.

Are you gonna help me or not?

So ,what are you gonna do?

Hop the fence like a goddamn ???

Hey, you need a pro to take you, okay?

It is an hour's drive to the East

over the roughest terrain Mexico has to offer.

You'll be dodging criminals,

out-laws, dirty cops, federals,

not to mention the cartel,

whose land will be trespassed on.

Listen to this:

you do not know where to cross.

I don't give a sh*t

what's in the bag. Right?

Kinda give a sh*t

but listen to me and notice,

you screw the wrong motherf***er

down here,

they'll cut your face off

and preach on a soccer ball.

I'm that "wrong motherf***er".

Did you understand what I said?

Yeah?

- Okay, when to cross?

- As soon as possible.

- Hours or days?

- Hours.

How much money do you got?

About $500.

$500?

$500!!?

You are joking with me, right?

You need $10,000!

Now, there is a problem 'cause of this.

You take your ass up ??

right now, okay?

Go to the bank, get the money.

Don't forget the money.

Bring your ass here as fast as you can,

will return to the US until the late afternoon.

- Deal?

- Okay.

Are you forgetting something?

Leave the bag.

Oh, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna need my passport.

It's not what you're gonna need.

I'm gonna tell you what you gonna need, okay?

You're not gonna need this f***ing bag.

The bag is collateral. Alright?

It's safer here with me.

You get it?

Take your passport.

Get out of here.

Get the f*** out, man.

Rosy, cheer us out here.

- Will you cash all of these? Okay?

- Okay.

Start with this one.

Max out what you can.

- Mr. Taylor, is everything alright?

- Pardon.

Do you mind to take off

your hat and glasses?

I wonder if this is some sort of emergency?

No. No emergency.

Just a rough night.

As you understand the interest

and fees on cashing are very high.

Perhaps, I could arrange

a wire-transfer from another source.

No. No, that's fine.

Just give me the money, please.

I'm in a hurry.

On cash withdrawals

of more than $10.000...

- we'll need you to fill out some forms.

- Yeah. It's fine.

Come with me, please.

TORPEDO MOVING:

What do you think of them?

Who? The pudgy?

Look at them.

They barely fit in the elevator, imagine the tunnel.

Just a thought.

- Hey, baby.

- He is on his way.

He is paying for the coyote.

I want more this time.

You okay where we agreed.

Mateo.

I want more.

Hey. Hey, relax scared man.

Come on, this is... You don't know

the treat, man? It's for the business.

Alright? Be cool. There.

Hey! My f***ing money?

You got the money?

Good.

Hey, you know what?

You can tell my probation officer...

I'm going to Mexico?

I will miss on Wednesday at 15h.

Hey, boss!

I think I found something.

What did you find?

Michael Taylor.

Hello?

Have you heard anything?

Okay. We'll... We'll be up here.

Come on up.

Thank you.

Wars and conflicts.

They do not come from your desires that...

- American?

- Yeah.

Uh, my name is Gabriel.

I am from Nicaragua.

- You know Nicaragua?

- I do.

- May I ask you a question?

- Sure.

What are you doing here?

Just trying to get across.

- Same as you.

- Uh, huh, no. "Same as you"?

Well, you're not same as me.

You are American.

You're going home.

I don't want any trouble.

I'm just trying to get across.

Perhaps, we're same.

Or they think Scripture

says in vain:

He jealously desires the Spirit

who lives in us.

However, it gives us the greatest grace.

So I said, God resists the proud...

- Hi, gentlemen.

- Hello.

Do you recognize this person?

- Yeah, that's him.

- Yeah. It is Michael Taylor.

Excuse me.

Hi, Jesus.

- Yes, that's him. I will send friends home.

- Very good.

Do they know

why he drew the money in Tijuana?

They do not know.

They do not know.

We discover something about Olivia.

- Olivia?

- Olivia Duran, his girlfriend.

- She is Mexican?

- Yes.

We investigate,

but found nothing.

No address, no phone.

Her mother died in childbirth in Tijuana.

We don't know much

about her father.

We know that she entered

several times in the USA.

We are checking.

Tell his friends

that everything will be fine.

Good job.

Submit to God.

Resist the devil

and he will flee from you.

- How much longer?

- Not long, Michael.

Cleanse your hands, sinners.

How do you know my name?

Gringo!

FIRST CHURCH OF MEXICO

Brothers, do not speak ill

of each other.

He who speaks evil

of a brother...

If you judge the truth,

then it does not meet...

...it is able to save

and to destroy.

Is that you? Who are you?

Please, please!

- Don't... Don't hurt me.

- I'm not gonna hurt you.

They were going to kill me.

Let's go.

What you want? Huh?

I want to talk to Pedro

to see what happened to the American.

The American? Why?

I just want to know if he went through.

It's okay.

I'll call.

Thanks.

ALSO ON THIS SIDE THERE DREAMS

- Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much.

- Good luck.

This is crisscrossed.
