Well, why did you go and buy

all of your Fancy clothes

to meet her then, huh?

What's that all about?

That's just a waste?

I'm fine by myself.

I don't need anyone.

- Julia:
Oh, hey.

- My American friends.

- How are you doing?

- Diego, right?

- Right.

- Right.

So you finally find

where to stay?

Diego, we're in the middle

of an important

conversation.

Yeah.

Ah, gotcha!

Can I sit, please?

Thank you.

It is hot in here.

So it's good to see you.

What are your plans?

You- you going back

soon to the States?

Why?

Do you want to go to America?

You want to be my pool boy?

- I don't know, really?

- Why not?

Have you got any

better offers lately?

No.

I have two cousins

that they tried to...

- To leave- to cross over.

- Bye.

Where are you going?

Diego:

He likes to play the big man.

Yeah, he's a little macho

- Tonight.

- Poquito.

You have this big house and pool

- and other things?

- Yeah yeah.

That's great.

- In where, in L.A.?

- Sure.

Abso-f***ing-lutely.

Oh, it's-

it has to be wonderful.

- Huh?

- I think L.A. is wonderful, no?

L.A. is a wonderful

wonderful magical place.

- Yes.

- You can be sure of that.

And I'm thinking that

I'd like to get a place here.

I like it.

What do you do for a living?

What's your business?

Um, oh, I don't know,

this and that.

- This and that? What does that mean?

- Yeah, cha cha cha cha.

- What's this and that?

- It's just like cha cha cha cha.

Ah, you're joking then.

- I'm not joking.

- You're laughing at me.

- I'm not laughing at you.

- I don't care.

- I wouldn't do that.

- You are beautiful.

- You're fast!

- No, I know.

I'm not.

Shh!

Shhh.

Go to your mother.

Your mother.

Hurry hurry.

Just through there-

quiet.

Are you ticklish?

Hola.

Buenos dias.

Um, have you seen my...

my little boy?

Uh-

Poquito nino?

Little boy?

It's Tom, he was here.

He was there.

I was in this room with...

Is my nino

in the casa?

...Diego.

Diego?!

Diego is here?

Where?

Donde? Diego?

Carena?

Carena!

Si?

Hola.

Mi poquito nino Tom?

Have you seen him?

- A coche? A car?

- Si.

Um, nino in a car?

When?

Los hombres? With some men?

Who, where? Show me.

Which hombres?

Do you know which-

Where?

The coche what?

The coche went down there?

- It went down there?

- Si.

Oh, f***.

Oh, f***.

Uh, excuse me.

I'm looking for Diego.

Diego, he works here?

- Diego...?

- Uh, Diego- what's his name?

- Diego Rodriguez.

- Diego Rodriguez, do you know him?

Diego!

Julia:

Diego!

Diego, you have Tom?

Is Tom here?

What what?!

- At the bar last night.

- What what?

- Some guys asked me who are you.

- Who?

I don't remember.

And I say...

- you were just-

- They asked who we were?

Yes, and I just say you

were Americans traveling.

You said we were American?

Oh, f***!

American, you're American!

And you're traveling, no?

Why did you take me back to your

house? That's what I want to know.

It doesn't matter who-

where you are.

- The boy has been-

- it doesn't matter where you are!

Maybe they can follow you. It could

be here, it could be in your hotel.

They put a f***ing gun in your

head and you can do nothing.

That's the thing.

And if you go to the police,

maybe they can kill the kid.

So we-

you have to be calm.

I'm gonna be with you.

You have to be calm.

And we have to-

we must wait.

- Wait for what?

- For the call.

They're gonna call.

They have to call.

How are they gonna

know where to find- I mean...

They'll find you.

They'll find you.

They always deal

with the family.

- Julia:
Is this him?

- Yeah, he has a message.

I don't have anything to do

with this

and I don't know

who these people are, okay?

But I got this call

and they told me

to come here

and tell you that

it's gonna be $50,000

by tomorrow.

And to get your phone number.

$50,000- I don't have

that kind of money.

You know these people?

Ma'am, just a taxi driver.

I am Miguel Alarcon.

Um, you can ask.

I live by the street

where your kid was playing.

I live there.

But I deliver messages

for the people all the time.

That- that's it.

I don't know who they are.

And that's all.

Just write down your number here.

They want it.

I'm not rich.

I'm just-

A mother.

I mean, if I did,

I would give

anything.

What's your name?

Miguel?

- Yes, Miguel.

- What do I do?

I don't know.

Call your family in America.

My family?

I don't have a family.

I'm by myself.

Danny is...

half Mexican- like you.

His father, my husband,

was Mexican.

He's dead.

We are poor, like you.

I- I couldn't pay his debts

in the United States.

That's why I came here.

You know,

I can tell you this:

that that you're saying, it's going

to be very dangerous for the boy

because they will know

that you're lying.

I'm not lying.

It's the truth.

Well, um,

when they call me

I just tell that

you're not going to pay.

- Okay?

- No no no, wait wait wait.

Hey hey hey, wait.

Listen to me,

listen to me.

I will pay.

I will pay.

Tonight, okay.

- Okay.

- Right, okay.

- But I want to meet these people.

- What?

And I want- I want the kid

then I'm gonna pay.

But I get the boy first.

That's it.

What what?!

Let me tell you this,

lady, okay?

These people are kidnappers.

You know what that means?

Yeah!

I mean, they have your kid, God damn

it. They are going to kill your son.

What- what kind

of mother are you?

You don't find

the money and-

they'll call you, okay?

- Good day.

- Where is he going?

No no, tell him! Tell him that I

want to go see so I can explain.

The thing is that he doesn't know

a thing. He's just a taxi driver.

And you honestly believe that

he has nothing to do with this?

Huh?

At some point they're gonna

get in touch with you

and you have to wait!

And I'm gonna be with-

- Yes?

- Man:
You don't pay?!

No, I pay, I pay it.

You want to see the eyes of your

son in front of your door, b*tch,

find $50,000 for tonight!

F***.

Where's the boy, huh?

- Call your f***ing friends up.

- I told you, I'm just a taxi driver.

Come here, stand up,

stand up, stand there

where I can see you.

Stand here where I can see you!

Where did you put him!?

I saw you!

You went to the police

And then they called me.

Tell me where the boy is.

Just tell me!

I don't know where he is.

Just give them the money.

If you don't give them the

money, they will kill me too.

I can't.

The money is coming tonight.

- From his father. He's rich.

- So what?

But he needs the boy

before he gives the money.

- I told you that's bullshit!

- I took the boy from the father

without telling him...

kind of illegally.

- Illegally?

- I'm not the mother.

And he's bringing a lot of

money to get the boy back.

And I'll give it all to you.

I'll give you $100,000

all for you, just tell me

where the boy is.

So-so-so-so-

you are not the mother?

- No.

- But the father comes

- with the money?

- Yes, tonight.

Who has the money,

you or this bastard?

He does and he is
