Linewatch Page #4

Synopsis: Michael Dixon is a seasoned agent working linewatch on the US/Mexico Border. Well respected by his peers at US Border Patrol, and well loved by his family (wife Angela and 5 year old daughter Emily), Michael's world is suddenly threatened by secrets from his past. Michael was not always the respectable family man he now has become - he was a vicious Los Angeles gang member who turned his back on the gang and his own brutal ways. But no one can quit the gang, so when a chance encounter leads the gang to Michael in New Mexico, Michael is forced to find a way to protect his family, even if it means helping the psychotic gang leader Drake smuggle a truckload of drugs across the border.

See, your uncle Mike here, he thinks

if he didn't talk about it, didn't happen.

What didn't happen?

What was that old guard like?

You know, "We're gonna find that dude,

"put a cap in his ass. " Like, "This is for

V- Ray, n*gger. " Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop.

- You know what I mean?

- It's better if you don't talk.

- Now get in the car.

- "Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. Pop. "

- "Some old gangster sh*t, Uncle Mike. "

- Will someone shut him up?

Four-two-one. Four-two-one. Lima-five-two.

- Four-two-one. Go Lima.

- I've got Warren here.

- Copy that.

- Hey, Mike.

Just got back from the hospital.

Luis came out of the coma.

He remembers that night at the Garza trailer.

- How's he doin'?

- He's looking good.

He said there was a third man that night,

black guy, 5'9", 175,

- grey/tan jacket.

- Cook?

- Ran south from the trailer.

- Really.

We've been trying to reach you on the cell.

Where are you, Mike?

Cochita Valley.

I need you to come into the station

immediately. That's an order.

I'll be in as soon as possible. Over and out.

- Listen up, Cook.

- Check it.

If a Gila monster starts chasing you

while we out here,

make sure you jump to the side.

- It's Gila monster. Gila.

- Gila. It's a "G," it start with a "G."

The "G" is silent.

Man, you be silent.

It's not He-Unit, it's G-Unit.

You know what I'm sayin'?

If the Gila monster chase you,

step to the side, 'cause they can't turn.

Now it probably won't kill you,

- but the Komodo dragon...

- Kimo, can you...

- Can someone tell him to shut up?

... that's one,

- it'll eat lizards.

- Stokes.

So a chameleon's a lizard, right?

- Hell, yeah, it's a lizard.

- He's the reptile professional.

- He's a reptologist.

- Y'all think y'all funny.

- Wow. It's a long way down.

- Yeah.

You putting too much weight on this side.

Sit your ass back.

- I'm tryin' to see where we might fall.

- Sit the... Sit back.

- Man, that's just a story

- we told little punks like you, cuz.

- No, it made sense to me.

- Survival of the fittest.

- Oh, yeah.

See, they make you walk across the edge.

If you made it, you were in.

If you fell, hell. You didn't belong no way.

You know, that's funny, Kimo,

'cause I don't 'member you ever doin' that.

Shut up, Border Patrol.

Sh*t.

Uncle Mike, do me a favour.

Stand over there.

- Go on, man.

- So what are we gonna do?

- Go on.

- Shut up till I tell you to talk.

Now all you gotta do is walk from here

to Uncle Mike.

It's all you gotta do.

From here to there.

- Gotta walk like a man.

- Watch this.

Sh*t.

Man, I don't know where the edge is. Hey...

Hey, Uncle Mike.

- I'm right here, Little.

- Shut the f*** up, Mike.

Man, walk your little ass. Ray Charles

Come on, man, what the f*** are you doin'?

That didn't hurt. I ain't even throw it hard.

- Walk it off.

- Man, what the f*** are you doin'?

Walk it out, punk. Throw it at him again.

- Oh, come on.

- Hurry your ass up. It's hot out here.

- Stop cryin' and walk your ass.

- Watch out, man. Come on.

- Man, that hurt.

"I can't see. "

Little, you's a soldier.

Lima-five-two. Lima-five-two.

This is Homeland Defence and Rescue.

Come in.

This is Lima-five-two. You're not supposed

to be on this channel, Spencer.

Yeah, well, we just heard gun shots

not far from Pyramid Pass,

and I'm lookin' at a blue SUV

headed in that direction.

You guys take the day off or what?

- Copy that. We'll have someone check it out.

- Really?

We got it.

- I'm gonna take her to bed for a nap.

- I don't want a nap.

Watch 'em.

Okay, baby girl.

Let's play a game. You want to? Okay.

Let's pretend that this is our secret room,

and we can't use our voices to talk.

What are we gonna do?

- Oh, man.

- We're early.

Good.

Better us waitin' on them

than them waitin' on us.

- It's hot as sh*t out here.

- I don't trust those sneaky little bastards.

- Put some of this gas in the tank.

- You know what I heard they do?

- People they kill?

- What?

Put 'em on posts, put 'em out by the road,

some type of a warning.

- What type of sh*t is that?

- Don't come here.

- Four-two-one. Four-two-one.

- Where's these Mexicans at?

Got a call comin' in, Mike.

This is four-two-one. Go ahead.

Listen, we got reports of gunshots and

a blue SUV heading towards Pyramid Pass.

Do you know anything about that?

I'm about 200 miles away

from Pyramid Pass, Warren.

- When can I expect you back?

- A few hours. I got a lead on the coyote.

- I'm gonna go check it out.

- Mike...

Sh*t.

- Havin' a problem, Mike?

- Hey, Lonnie.

- What's up, man?

- I need you up on that ridge to be lookout.

You know what?

Why don't we let Little stay right here?

Stokes, you go up top.

Now how the hell

I'm gonna get way up there, man?

- Man, get your ass up there.

- Watch your mouth, slim thug.

If a chilli dog was up there,

you would run up there, wouldn't you?

- What time is it?

- Lf your mama was up here, I'd fly.

We've got about five minutes.

I'm gonna go turn the car around.

Little, let me holler at you for a minute.

- Don't go nowhere, Mike.

- It's hot out here, huh?

Oh, sh*t. What the f***. Get away.

Get back. Yah, motherf***er, yah.

What's the problem, Stokes?

Nothin', man. Nothin'. Nothin'.

Don't worry about it.
