El Nino

Strait of Gibraltar

UK, Spain and Morocco

seen from the port of Algeciras.

Only ten miles of water

separate Africa from Europe.

EL NIO:

He's coming out now.

Blue BMW, as before.

Got it.

Eva.

- Do you copy?

- Yes

- Say something.

- Fix your car, arsehole.

Why not something nice?

Here he comes.

Let's go. Stick close behind me.

F***ing car!

No trip to the brothel today.

He must be tired of that Russian chick.

Irina. Her name's Irina

and she's Ukrainian.

Irina. Right.

I see you did your homework.

All in the line of duty.

He's going around again.

I'll have to turn off.

OK.

You take over.

OK.

Take over. Now.

OK, I'm going.

He's headed for La Lnea.

Stick close to him.

He's being careful,

maybe we'll get lucky.

He's driving into Gibraltar.

- What now?

- Follow him.

Hello. Stop.

Got your ID?

What? That's UK territory,

it's out of our jurisdiction.

But we can do a little sightseeing.

Thank you.

I'll stay here.

I'll wait down there.

Pull over to that side

for a border security check.

Go through again.

I don't know what it could be.

Hurry, we can't keep him long.

Yes, I know.

There. All done.

T- M-O-U

7-0-2-6-6-2-3

This is the one. Scan it.

What do we do with the Englishman?

Nothing.

We have a warrant.

We could ask for extradition.

For a Brit with no record,

resident in the UK?

Because this is the UK.

We can't get at him and he knows that.

So we just let him screw us over?

Let's see what happens first.

It's clean, guys.

- It can't be.

- It is.

What's on the invoice?

Frozen fish. Three tonnes.

We have to open it up.

The coke is inside.

What?

Sometimes things

don't show up on the scan.

And we have to pay for a container.

- Do you know how expensive fish is?

- For f***'s sake.

Hold on a sec. Hold it.

Come on, we've got the guy,

the recordings, the container...

What else do you want?

We've waited two years for this.

He must have found out.

Nobody else knew about it.

Just you and me.

And I trust you.

You could at least say the same.

It was that bastard.

That f***ing Englishman's

screwed us over again.

Compi!

There's some blonde bird

here to see you!

- What's up, dude?

- Do you fancy a ride?

I can't, mate. I'm working.

So am I.

I'm testing this thing out.

If I go, my uncle will kill me.

Hey, Antonio!

What are you doing?

Just a minute, man.

I'm talking!

Look, stop gassing,

and come back and do some work!

Come on, Compi.

Come and try it out.

Where are you going?

Look!

- What is it?

- A stone from Africa.

You went all the way there

just for this?

You're nuts, dude. Look.

This place was empty two years ago.

Now look at it:

Germans, Swiss, Swedes...

- Every nutcase in Europe.

- But they've got plenty of dough.

Imagine how much money

that guy makes.

What with the boards, the beers...

- The German's onto a good thing.

- A f***ing awesome set-up.

This was all here already,

that guy just saw the opportunity.

We should do the same.

Set up a bar here?

F*** no, not here.

Remember that little beach

down off Punta Paloma way?

We could put a hippy beach bar

like this there.

Grungy but cool.

Grungy but cool?

Shitty-looking,

but with everything:

a place to watch the sun set,

nice cold beer,

hot babes hanging around

all day long.

It's there, Nio

If we don't do it, someone else will.

I reckon I've got

about 200 in the bank,

so it would be shitty for sure.

There's a lot of money

to be made around here.

You just have to want it.

Want what?

To earn it.

You know what I mean.

Yeah, you express yourself so well.

- What are we doing here, Compi?

- Let me handle it. He's cool.

That's him.

- Him? But he's Arab.

- No, he's not.

But I'm telling you.

He's Spanish. I saw his ID

when we did a line in a club.

They sneak over as kids.

After a while they become Spanish.

Gave you his life story, did he?

I don't want hassle.

What hassle?

He's in your line of work.

You f***ing shithead.

Dude, they don't know us from sh*t.

I thought you knew him.

Yeah, but this is business.

You can look now.

OK, here it is.

We need a double bottom,

using part of the tank.

And you hide the stuff in there,

out of sight.

But the boat has to look brand new.

Is that a problem?

No, no problem at all.

What do you think, Nio?

OK. I need tools and materials,

and it will take time.

Two days?

Three or four.

Especially if we go around

in circles like that every day.

I told you.

He notices everything.

He can do it blindfolded.

He is the best, I'm telling you.

He's been at that workshop

for four years.

Plenty of yachts and rich guys,

yet they pay him jack sh*t.

Who said you could look around?

I'm here with Halil.

Didn't he explain what the job is?

I've never seen one like this.

Well, forget you ever saw it.

And forget the job.

Get out of here, both of you!

Out!

Hey!

What's wrong?

Just take it easy.

What did you do?

I was just looking.

Well, you f***ed it up.

Shut your f***ing mouth.

Come here.

Is what Halil tells me true?

I don't know.

I didn't understand sh*t.

You crossed the Strait

just to get a stone from Africa?

So what? Was it yours?

I can give it back to you.

So that's why you're called Nio.

Because you like to play.

I don't like being bored.

Listen, if we come to an agreement,

you definitely won't be bored.

My name is Rachid.

Come on, let's go talk.

OK, calm down.

I'm not doing anything.

No. We can't use it.

We can't tie him to the body.

We don't actually think

he ordered the killing.

The Englishman has never

done anything like this.

He's working for other people.

- Which people?

- Eastern Europeans.

Marking out their patch.

Demand there has skyrocketed.

They're tapping all dealers,

even hash smugglers.

I see.

This is a warning to everyone.

Cocaine is not like hash.

They won't accept mistakes.

The trouble is,

we can't afford to make any mistakes either.

They're calling

for someone's head too.

There's an opening in Tarragona.

Tarragona?

If you think about it,

it would be like a promotion for you.

You don't have a family

to move or anything.

I know, lucky me.

Don't hate me for this,

but it may be for the best.

You've pissed off

a lot of criminals.

Some of them have it in for you.

You can't live like that,

constantly under threat.

- That's my business.

- And mine.

A headless corpse

hanging off a bridge?

It's not torching a car

or spraying a door.

These people are different.

But we're so close!

We're so close!

Now we know it's him,

we can catch him.

It's just a matter of time.

Time we don't have

because of that picture.

Give them a different picture:

a press conference with a ton

of cocaine piled up behind us.

Three months.

Three months?

I'll bring you his head on a platter.

I don't know.

I don't know.

We could hide you for a while.

Hey...

You liked flying, didn't you?

In that case,

you can take to the sky again.

And Eva stays on our job.

Eva stays.

And why do you need
