Room?
You want a room.
Yes. Yes.
With TV?
Uh... Fine. Yes.
Three hundred.
Gracias.
Come, come.
My name is Ronaldo,
and this is my brother, Ernesto.
Just tell us
if you need something.
Okay. Actually,
do you know where
I can buy a cheap phone?
Uh, yeah,
just across the street.
I just don't get it.
- There's nothing to get, babe.
Seriously.
I told you,
Nelly's just a friend.
You gotta let it go,
all right?
Live life to the fullest,
and leave setbacks behind.
Together,
we can lead pharmaceuticals into the future.
Alleviate. Initiate. Innovate.
With Cannabax.
Medical marijuana is already a
multi-billion dollar industry.
It's already up and running
in 20 states
and the District of Columbia.
If you've got a card,
you can legally rip a bong
in the Lincoln bedroom.
Wow.
All right, look, guys, now,
legally speaking,
isn't this right on the line?
Well, it's on it,
it's not over it.
There's a reason why
we set up the lab in Mexico.
You could be operational
the moment the laws open up.
AFT take this from you?
You're gonna be staring at their tail
lights for the rest of all time.
The future of marijuana
is this pill.
You know this product
is revolutionary.
You know that by the time
everybody else catches up,
we will have
established a brand
that can
never be usurped.
Think Pfizer and Viagra.
They got there first.
There ain't no second.
Look...
Most people will tell you
Buzz Aldrin
walked on the moon.
But even a complete retard
will tell you
Neil Armstrong did it first.
And do you know
why he went first?
- He was mission commander?
He went first because he pushed
Buzz Aldrin the f*** out of the way
and seized history
by the ball sack.
That's the story
schools are afraid to teach,
but that's what happened.
I'm satisfied.
Jer?
I'm still not sure about this.
Oh, Jerry!
The club is closing!
We've been dancing all night.
It's time to go home
and f***.
- Easy, Elaine.
- What, Richard?
Nobody dances all night
unless they wanna f***.
He's just being shy.
I have a gun to my head.
I have a loaded gun
to my head!
Richard.
Richard!
I've been kidnapped!
I have
a loaded gun to my head!
So, you guys understand
what to do?
- Yes? Comprende?
- Yes, yes.
Does he comprende?
Okay, good.
Richard Rusk's office.
Mia!
I need to speak to Richard!
Harold?
I need to speak to Richard!
- Mr. Rusk?
- I said hold my calls.
Mr. Rusk.
- Yeah. Oh, yeah.
- Yes. F*** me.
Mr. Rusk.
Yeah, right?
Mr. Rusk? Boss, are you there?
Oh, sh*t.
Mia, out of curiosity,
exactly what part
of "hold my calls" couldn't
you wrap your head around?
I'm in a meeting.
I'm sorry. It's Harold,
and I think that
there's something wrong.
Harold? Uh...
Yeah, put him through.
Harold?
Richard!
Where are you?
Why didn't you come back
with me and Elaine?
Richard, I've been taken!
- Taken?
- Elaine? I've been kidnapped!
They have a gun to my head!
I have a loaded gun
to my head!
No! What are you doing with that?
What are you doing with that?
No, no, no! No! No!
Try and breathe,
calm down,
and explain as clearly
as you can what's going on.
I'm somewhere in Mexico
with a gun to my head!
How much clearer can I be?
Harold, it's okay, we're here.
- Um...
- Ask what they want.
What do they want?
They want five million
wired to an account.
Or they're going to hang me
from the bridge!
Five million what, pesos?
Pesos? Dollars!
Harold, how exactly
did they arrive at a number
like five million dollars
for a person in your position?
You didn't tell them about
the K&R policy, did you?
They came to the hotel
and kidnapped me.
- I had no choice!
- God-f***ing-damn it!
- We're so f***ed.
- Jesus Christ!
- Shh!
- The number one rule
about having the f***ing
insurance policy
the f***ing insurance policy!
Did you not
attend the seminar?
He set up the seminar.
No!
No! Por favor!
- Jesus Christ.
- No!
Really f***ing hamstrings
our bargaining position.
You know that, right?
Bargaining?
I just told you
they're going to kill me!
Yes, bargaining!
I'm in business!
That's what I do!
You walk through warehouses,
put little check marks on boxes.
- That's what you do!
- Don't be mean.
What about the policy?
You're going
to have to tell him.
Harold, I'm just
gonna spit this out.
There is no policy.
What?
We had to make cutbacks.
Uh... F***.
There was a lot going out.
We didn't have
a lot coming in.
I had to let the policy lapse.
You kept sending me down here
with no insurance?
Yeah,
butjust for a little while.
Why didn't you tell me?
What a f***ing crybaby.
There's not enough time
in every day
for us to tell you all the things
we do not need to tell you, Harold!
No! No! No, no! No!
F***ing Mexicans!
- Harold?
- Richard!
All right. Hey, listen.
Harold, I am gonna get you
outta there, I swear to God.
Harold, listen to me
right now.
You tell whoever's got you
that there's no deal
unless they come
way down on the price.
- What?
- Yeah, la cuenta...
Just... Harold,
can we call you back?
What?
- Do you got a number?
- Richard. Richard.
No, I need to speak to legal.
Richard. Richard,
don't leave me...
who speaks Mexican.
No, Richard!
Don't leave me here! Richard!
- Can you call us back?
- Richard! Richard!
Gracias, guys.
Well done.
Vamos.
Sh*t.
Five million dollars for
someone in middle management.
Do me a favor,
shut the f*** up!
You with your whole f***ing,
"Hey, Elaine,
I got the perfect guy for us!
"My good buddy, Harold Sinka!
- Soyinka.
- "He's gonna f***ing be perfect for the job.
"He won't ask any questions,
"not gonna cause
any f***ing trouble."
This is a f***ing clusterfuck!
Just stay focused.
I am focused!
What do we do now?
Do we call the cops?
Would it be such a bad thing
if he didn't come back?
What are you talking about?
We are not leaving Harold
in f***ing Mexico!
That's crazy!
You're the one who said
put him out of his misery.
I say crazy sh*t all the time!
I don't mean it literally!
But you said "literally"
put him out of his misery.
Oh, my f***ing...
I meant
not "literally" literally.
"Literally" is something
people say now!
- It doesn't mean a f***ing thing!
- Okay.
They're going to be inspecting
the plant tomorrow,
and if they find anything off,
this whole deal is shot.
And I don't need to tell you what's
gonna happen if the Feds catch
f***ing wind of any
of this on any level.
We are completely f***ed!
I know a guy.
Oh, here we go again.
You know a f***ing guy.
No, I know a guy who might be
really good for this kind of thing.
- Extraction...
- Jesus Christ.
Special Ops type things.
Boy...
This is really bad timing.
F*** this. We've got this.
Richard, we f***ing got this.
We're a team.
Look, why don't I come over
