to fight for again.

My future or ours?

Uh, I'm sorry.

I don't deserve to ask that,

I shouldn't have...

You, um...

You say what's on your mind.

That's what I love about you.

Bill...

What I did...

You don't think it was right,

do you?

I think you have a chance

to do the right thing...

This time.

My name is Riley Connors.

Your fortune and your freedom

are in danger.

And you need my help.

I agreed to a meeting

because of your name

but... to employ you

with no resume

no real cybersecurity

experience...

It is difficult.

Would you say that the CIA

is cyber secure?

We get CNN in Bogota.

- Then you know my resume.

- Mm-hmm. Yes.

And why no one

will ever hire you.

Plus, I have a head of security.

Do you use packet filter

or a circuit gateway firewalls?

Carlito won't speak to you.

Because I'm a woman?

Because he puts his children on

a bus to school every morning.

But we don't see eye to eye

on everything.

I believe your actions

were quite brave.

- Is Carlito a good bodyguard?

- I am here.

Thanks only to god

and my brother.

And has Carlito ever been shot?

I bet it hurt, but you're damn

good at your job

because you know that pain

and it's your job to protect

your brother from it.

I've never been shot

but I have felt more pain

than most can bear

and I can protect you,

your company

and your fortune from that pain.

You already have government

agencies threatening you

probably for mistakes.

I've beat the CIA once.

Now, you can pay me

to do it again.

What threats?

Well, we can start

with the ones watching

from across the street.

I spotted them

when I came this morning.

Fifth floor,

second office on the left.

- What is she doing?

- Gaining their trust.

Didn't know it was going to be

at our expense.

How did you know that?

There's always someone watching.

The hard part

is finding out who.

And how to stop them.

Perhaps it's time

for a new perspective.

Very good.

Do you believe god forgives us

for our mistakes?

God didn't make the mistake.

Carlito and I served

on Castro's police.

To leave was to desert

to be labeled traitors.

You understand

the gravity of this?

You know I do.

But we made a new home here,

a new life... in Bogota.

What that man did...

Was terrible.

What you did... wasn't.

Thank you, Hermano.

Carlito needs to check you in.

A pleasure, senorita.

So what? You need my birthday?

Remove all metals

and your clothes.

Okay, Castro, I-I'm sorry

if I embarrassed you

in front of your brother.

Will you at least turn around

while I get naked?

Okay, a**hole.

Riley?

Wow. It's beautiful.

You, uh,

trying to kill yourself?

Second time couldn't hurt

much more, right?

What happened there today?

I had to give him something.

Something that made you a little

less expendable to the CIA.

And after, your Mike cut out.

I had to ditch it.

Should we get back?

Don't put me in the dark again.

Bill,

if I had told you my plan...

You'd be on the run too

or-or worse.

It's not that you didn't tell me

it's that you didn't

say anything at all.

That day,

you were just so... normal.

I'm so sorry.

Then why? Why did you do it?

Why throw away our life together

for people you don't even know?

Do you really want to know

the answer to that?

I think I've earned it.

I wanted to join the agency

my whole life.

It was my dream

to protect people.

And I got it.

I got my dream.

And then one day

I wake up, and I'm the enemy?

I'm the breath on the other end

of the phone line, so I...

I tried to fix it.

And, bill, I...

I'd do it again.

We were going to have a life.

- Remember?

- Don't you think I know that?

So you just didn't give a f***?

There isn't a day that goes by

that I don't think about

what we lost,

and how to get it back.

Will you look at me?

Bill.

I wasn't handed

this assignment...

But I fought for it.

To find you.

The Ruiz brothers.

You know, they were

Cuban secret police, don't you?

Yeah, they didn't hide it.

You know what that means, right?

He deserted.

He didn't leave Castro

to reject dictatorship.

He just wanted to be

the one in charge.

Riley, the guys

was in the f***ing narcos.

Uh, I can't explain it, but...

Fernando...

He wasn't evil.

Didn't seem evil?

Medellin, 2008.

Fernando tried

to purchase a local bank

they resisted.

They were burned alive.

Fernando did this?

Yes.

All the more reason

I have to go after him.

No, reason enough

to stay away from him.

- This is how I get home.

- No, it's not.

You're just

trying to redeem yourself

and it doesn't work like that.

And the CIA,

they'll use you and dump you.

Maybe. But I trust bill.

Morning.

- Last night...

- Hey.

One foot in front of the other.

Right?

I'm going to need

to get this guy first.

Same team?

Same team.

We don't have to be enemies.

He probably just wants money.

You're getting this?

Okay, we have access

to the on board computer.

As soon as Fernando

links his mobile to the car

we'll be tracking

and recording every key stroke.

We're good. Disconnect.

Riley?

Riley.

Riley.

Done.

- All okay?

- Yeah. These people are just...

Good work, Ry.

We own his ass.

Not a bad start.

Ry?

Ry?

You're sure this was the man?

Positive.

So, what are you hiding,

Mr. Ruiz?

Nando, please.

And they are secrets

for a reason.

In Cuba, Ms. Riley

we knew

when not to ask questions.

If the CIA even thinks

you're a threat

they'll seize your business,

seize your money

and send you back to Cuba.

Do you want that?

My banks hold money

for a large company.

- Fernando.

- EC.

It's an online casino.

Legal here in Colombia.

But most of this money

comes from the states.

My bank simply makes sure

that money appears

to come from other places.

- And where does the money go?

- It doesn't matter.

The CIA will already be

tracking transfers.

We need to rebuild

your firewall from the ground up

and check

each server individually.

Bill's probably already

mauled in to your accounts.

Bill?

Yes.

Is that his name?

Yes.

How do you know this?

As you say, "some things

are secrets for a reason."

You work with Carlito

on every step.

And please

end this bill problem.

Riley...

I can make your life very

comfortable in Colombia.

You can be someone

of importance here.

Respected...

As you should be.

In addition to your password,

you'll need to scan in

every time you

want to open the account.

I will also set this up

on Nando's phone

so he can access

the server remotely.

Nando?

For a crusader, you get in bed

easily with the enemy.

I lost my crusade.

Now, it's just about the money.

Without loyalty, we are nothing.

- You ditched your Mike again.

- Shh, shh, shh.

He's logging into the account.

We have his print.

And his password.

We got you, puta. We got you.

Looks like

I'm headed to the hacienda.

Can I get a minute?

- What the hell was that?

- I'm earning his trust.

You're supposed to be doing that

with your skill, not your ass.
