- Miss Virginia.

- A pleasure.

Do you know all these people?

I like your laugh.

It's the same on TV.

You're so relaxed on television.

How do you manage it?

- Do you think I'd do it?

- There are little tricks.

- Are you looking for my job?

- No I am not.

Are you married?

- Not of your own will.

- What does he do?

He is a plastic surgeon. We have separated,

but he does not want to write on the papers.

Does not he want you to marry you?

No, he does not want to marry

one of his teenage girlfriends.

It can be resolved.

Are you going to talk to him?

I do not like to hang

out with married women.

Next time we go out,

you're not his wife.

- Not?

- Not.

- Will I be his widow?

- God, who are you looking for?

Now we take that damn! Take him out!

Outside!

- Everyone in their places.

- Virginia!

Your lawyer just called.

Your ex wrote on the divorce papers.

We are live about three, two...

To celebrate my freedom

Pablo takes me to a paradise

island that only he knows.

If you're going to cry over a man, it's

better to cry in a private plane than a bus.

- Where are you going?

- They are waiting.

Which?

- Do I look good?

- You look perfect.

How is the situation, the boss?

Miss.

If you tell your secrets,

I'll tell you, okay?

Our trip is a cover for a

meeting with drug smugglers.

Gentlemen, Virginia Vallejo.

Virginia, how are you? When

did you get here? -Today.

Pablo presents me for his

colleagues in the cartel.

He shows me like a trophy.

And I know they are

there to evaluate me.

They are the foundation of a new

social class:
Drug Millionaires.

And I'm the only journalist with

access to their first meeting.

Thanks. I'll get something to drink.

Stay nearby, Virginia.

These men can not be trusted.

The worst thing I had done

before was to double-park.

But the truth is that I

had never felt safer.

Our priorities are marked,

it has not changed.

That evening they shared the

United States between themselves.

Florida to the Medellin cartel.

New York to Calikartellen.

The independent people send

their shipment to Pablo.

They know that no one dares to

steal a single gram from him.

Seeing him in his natural

environment is addictive.

Thanks to these men, it will snow

cocaine in the United States.

FLORIDA, USA 1982

Honey, did you see that?

Guys, are you completely damn crazy?

What the hell are you doing?

Back to the car, for the fan!

Stay away!

We get stuck in traffic on highway

75 in the south from Temple.

Holy sh*t!

What are you doing?

Are you completely damn crazy?

I almost killed you!

They were called for the saints, for they

performed the miracle of multiplication.

Make the mat.

One kilo is worth $

7,000 here in Colombia.

In the United States they mix it with

milk sugar and it will be three kilos

which is worth 150,000 there.

Is not that a miracle?

- Oh my God!

- Jim, stay!

Hell!

From the White House:

President and Mrs Ronald Reagan.

A message about drugs.

Despite our efforts, illegal cocaine

enters the country at alarming levels.

It is particularly harmful to the youth,

what the future is dependent upon.

So tonight, from our family to you.

From our home to you.

Thank you for joining us.

America has achieved so

much in recent years...

Welcome, Agent Shepard.

The president is glad to have you with us.

This is Mr. Velarde, representative

of the Colombian government.

The president is concerned

about the latest report.

Cocaine is no longer the drug for the

cream, it has reached the middle class.

- You know what it means.

- It comes unchecked in the country.

80% come from Colombia.

We are working to re-enable

an old bilateral agreement.

Extradition Agreement. We arrest the

longs, so you can prosecute them here.

They do not fear the judges in Colombia.

Either they mutilate or kill them.

- But they fear your legal system.

- Is there a legal basis for this?

The cocaine is produced in my

country, but it is taken here.

The crime is being finalized

in the United States.

I have brought a draft.

The President knows your background.

He wants you to monitor the entire process.

The president is coming soon. We hope

to implement this within a few days.

Do not take the dreams from a child's

heart and replace them with nightmares.

It's high time for us in America to

get up and replace these dreams.

What are we, little children?

Do not we have a judge here?

No mother sends her children to

the neighbor to be punished.

What do the lawyers say? Is that legal?

Can it be appealed?

- Yes, it can be appealed.

- We have to knock it out.

The deal is a threat to all of us.

Every one of you, every one of us.

The struggle must be done

from within the institutions.

- From Congress?

- That's the only way. Pay them.

Conservative and liberal,

everyone likes the good of life.

Look at me, Pablo.

The ramp is bad for the business.

Whatever they are looking for in your

home, they find in everyone else's.

Listen to us, please.

They come after you.

Politics is damn crap.

No, my brother, that's the opposite. If you

reach the congress you will be respected.

Why? That's why you're one of them.

Do you know how much it costs to apply to

the Cabinet of Government in Colombia?

10 million pesos.

And becoming a senator costs

between 100 and 120 million pesos.

1500 million pesos, more or

less, to become president.

Tell me who can spend

so much money?

And a farmer? Anyone

from the working class?

Politics is about money here.

Democracy is about money here.

We have a lot of money.

You, Garza, what's so fun?

You should listen to yourself, Pablito.

You already sound like a politician.

Sir, we have a meeting with the candidate.

Are they armed?

Of course, they are my bodyguards.

- Sorry, but they can not come in.

- Listen to me.

They have a donation to the campaign.

If they do not come in, the

donation will not come in either.

Ask your candidate if

that's what he wants.

Take off

A moment.

The cartel bet on both horses.

Why bet on a candidate

when you can bet on both?

That way, no matter

who wins, they win.

Their aircraft launches

candidates during the day...

and fly to the US at night.

And what do they get in exchange?

You defend the Supreme Court's dispute

regarding the extradition agreement.

It will be good for all of us, Mr.

Candidate.

The gentlemen want to donate 25 million

pesos to the campaign in Antioquia.

The people call donations from

the kings for "hot money".

Why?

You can leave the bag on the floor.

Someone will pick it up later.

Therefore they burn one.

How far will you go, Pablo?

We have it good. Is not that enough?

My love, with Congress

I can help people...

Help your family first.

You have money, Pablo. You have us.

What else do you want?

I want respect.

- Respect?

- Yes, I want respect.

I want my son to be proud of me.

Is it so hard to understand?

Then he must meet you, Pablo.

Juan Pablo, my boy, go to the living room.
