Double Take Page #6

Synopsis: The governor of a Mexican state is assassinated. Soon after, junior executive Daryl Chase's life turns upside down: after he flags a huge transfer of funds from a Mexican account as probably illegal, he's attacked in his apartment, rescued by a CIA agent, finds his secretary shot dead, and witnesses two cops get killed. He calls the CIA guy who tells him to grab the next train to Mexico. Leaving Manhattan, Daryl can't shake a jive-talking street punk named Freddy, and soon he's traded clothes with Freddy to escape the police. Within days, his girlfriend, his boss, his client, Freddy, the FBI, and the dead governor's dog are tangled in a web of deceit and danger. Who's who?

You've got to admit,

that "rogue" sh*t was pretty... Aw, sh*t!

there thinkin' that you're me. - What?

Damn it, Molly Jo!

Mike, how'd you get out of the pen?

Those are McCready's men out there.

Don't you get it?

We got a border to cross!

Get me out of here!

I fall to pieces

Oh, sh*t!

How can I be just your friend

- What the...

- You want me to act

- Like we've never kissed

- Let's go, b*tch.

You want me to forget

Pretend we've never met

- You'd better be worth a lot of damn money;

that's all I can say.

- You mother...

And I try and I try

but I haven't yet

You walk by

and I fall to pieces

You walk by

And I fall to pieces

We made it, baby!

Hey, man, what's goin' on?

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

That's my meal ticket, there!

I'm sorry about this mess, but I know

you know where them big-booty b*tches...

Get off of me!

Don't tell me to shut up!

- You don't know who I am.

- Put him back in here with Daddy.

Now, listen, Mr. Funny Man.

Enjoy your visit, huh?

Okay. I'm going.

Kiss my ass, Paco!

Come in, Mr. Tiffany!

Come in!

Step into my office.

Sit down.

Have a cigar, Mr. Tiffany.

Here.

Here. Go on. Go on.

Have a cigar.

Here. Very good.

Go ahead. Go ahead. Huh?

You have no idea what it means

to meet you, Mr. Tiffany.

This is a great moment.

I take it you and Governor Quintana

weren't exactly friendly.

Oh, I loved Governor Quintana!

He was a great man

who was trying to make a difference.

Oh, that is, of course, why he

bought the farm, as you Americanos say.

But he will always be held

in the warmest place of my heart.

Let me ask you something,

Capitn.

What? Wh-What is that?

You all smiling at me like I'm Regis

and I got a million dollars.

- Very funny.

- What's up with that?

That is because there will

be promotions for all of us.

You know...

the men who captured you.

Well, before you boys break out the

pinatas and start drinkin' tequila...

- I'd like to make my phone call.

- Huh?

My phone call.

To T.J. McCready with the CIA.

I think he'll explain

who I really am.

A phone call?

You want to make a phone call?

He wants to make a phone call!

This is not America,

my friend.

You do not get a phone call.

Next, you will be wanting us

to call Johnnie Cochran, huh?

Wh-What is this?

- I'm not Freddy Tiffany.

- What?

I'm Daryl Chase. Looks like

Foghorn Leghorn over here screwed up.

I say... I say,

ain't that right, boy?

What is the meaning

of all of this?

Now, hold on. Just wait a second here.

Let me think.

You realize I can bring you up

on charges for trying to trick me?

- Now, wait a goddam minute.

- Huh?

- I am tellin' you, he...

- Boss, boss.

- What?

- Really?

Well, we shall see.

There is somebody here

to see you.

- Me?

- Mm-hmm.

- Who?

- Your senorita.

Federico.

- Wait. I know you, right?

- You know me?

You know me? Well, I should hope so

that you know me.

Look, I don't know what's with the

accent, but we met at the La Perla party.

No, we did not meet at La Perla.

We met at the other place.

- You know what I'm talking about.

- I'm Daryl Chase.

- You are not Daryl Chase! You are Federico!

- No, no. No, see, I'm Dar...

We met at the La Perla party.

Remember?

- I don't know her.

- Well, you... you just said you did.

Okay. We met at a party...

I met her, but I don't, you know, know

her, you know, in the biblical, like she...

You know me!

You know me mucho times, okay?

- Mucho times.

- I don't know this girl.

- Why? Why are you doing this to her?

- Look. I don't know...

what greasy, grubby nigga she been

laying up in the bed with.

- I ain't got nothin' to do with this.

- That is not a very nice thing to say.

I'm not lyin'!

I do not know her!

Captain...

I never talked

to this "macarena" girl!

I love you, Freddy!

This a bad time

to talk about that reward?

Don't worry about a thing, girl.

'Cause when we get to Mexico,

I'm a Mexican and you a chihuahua.

So you gotta learn how to habla Espanol

when we get there, you know.

Hey, girl. Look at this:

An invasion of Texas.

Hey, y'all have a good time in America!

And my name is Paco if anybody asks.

Bark in Spanish.

Well, that was good, girl. Sure you

ain't got no chihuahua in you?

I mean,

how hard can this be?

On our way to Mexico.

Oh, hell, yeah. We cruisin', baby.

Look at that. Yeah, this is good.

Oh, shh...

Sh*t!

Delores!

Delores!

Hang in there, girl. Ah.

Ai-yai-yai.

Thank you.

No, no, no.

Black man going to Mexico.

Y'all can go to Compton.

I'm going to Mexico!

Look.

U.S.A.

Me and the dog can take all y'all. Bring it

on! Bring it on! Watch it, baby. Bite 'em!

Keep missin' with me.

All of ya. No. Look out.

- Here you go, Mr. Allsworth.

- Hmm? Thank you.

- Mm-hmm. - This is a good

thing you're doing, Chloe.

The CIA won't let anything

happen to him.

You're doin' the right thing

by helpin' us out.

I'll do whatever it takes.

I ain't gettin' out!

Yeah, drop me off right here!

Thanks for the ride, suckers!

Sh*t.

Hello, Mr. Chase.

I trust you had a pleasant trip.

- You have no idea.

- I've come to get you out of here.

Let's go.

Thanks, man.

Sh*t.

Daryl, wait up. I need to step over here

and take care of some paperwork...

and get your things, and then you can

tell me about everything.

The sooner I get out of here,

the better.

- What happened to your leg?

- A dog bit me.

Oh. Here you go, amigo.

Freddy Tiffany.

Let me guess.

Somebody tried to kill you.

T.J. McCready miraculously

shows up in the nick of time...

and shoots him.
