Excuse me.

Everybody relax, okay?

Relax, Sammy.

I know she's your little girl.

When I tell you everything's gonna be

all right, everything's gonna be all right.

Seor Ramos.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

Victor Fuentes, Anti-Kidnapping Division,

Policia Judicial.

Excuse me. I'm Jordan Kalfus.

I'm the family attorney.

Speak slower, please.

My Russian is better than my English.

Well, I'm conducting the negotiations, and

we neither need nor want police assistance.

We're gonna...

We're gonna handle this thing ourselves.

Seor Ramos,

two police officers were killed...

during your daughter's abduction.

I have a written order

from Ministerio Publico...

authorizing our participation

ex-officio.

If you want to speak to

Attorney General Diaz, it's on me.

No. Okay.

The kidnapper will tell you

to deliver the money alone.

Por favor, don't do that...

or you will find yourself

in a real Mexican hell.

No mariachi.

No tequila... and no Pita.

[Monitor Beeping]

Crease.

Crease.

[Loud Sigh] When I heard it was

this hospital, I was so pleased.

There is a pastry shop nearby.

Delgado's. They have

the best pastries in Mexico.

[Sniffs]

Oh, Miguel Manzano...

director of the A.F. I...

and a former director of Interpol...

in Rome.

- And you are?

- Friend of his. Rayburn.

- Rayburn?

- [Phone Ringing]

- Rayburn?

- [Phone Ringing]

[Ringing Continues]

Hola.

Do you love your daughter,

Seor Ramos?

Yes. Yes.

- Do you want to see her again?

- Yes, I do.

Seor, if your daughter's life...

is as important to you

as it is to me...

you will do as I say.

- Yes?

- Okay. Yes.

- Crease. Can you hear me?

- Hmm.

You got four of them. All dead.

- Pita.

- It's, uh...

It's been two days.

They're negotiating a ransom.

These things take time, Mr. Creasy.

Crease.

Don't f*** with me, all right?

- [Phone Ringing]

- [Chattering]

[Man] Do you have the 10 million?

Do you have the money?

- Yes, we have the money.

- Now if you do as I say...

the girl will be returned

exactly as she was taken.

But if you deviate from

the process in any way...

[Spanish]

I swear,

you will never see her again.

I understand. Listen, l-I too worship

la Virgin de Guadalupe.

I ask you if you understand.

Hello, sir.

This is, uh, Mr. Ramos's attorney.

He's going through a very difficult

time here, but he understands.

[Man] Do you understand?

Repeat the drop instructions.

Okay, the money, 10 million,

U.S., will be divided into...

two 15-gallon black canvas bags,

each containing five million...

which will be checked

at the bank by the K.R. agent...

then driven to the house in

an armored car where it will be

transferred to the delivery car.

You got a flat tire here.

This is for you.

Hello. Yeah.

Listen, I need a driver

to drive Samuel.

No. Why?

He's got a bad ticker.

He's got a heart condition.

Look, he's a nervous kid

who doesn't respond well to stress.

All right.

But the car will not be powerful.

Remove the trunk lid.

Use the maid's Valiant Acapulco.

You will arrive at

La Diana Fountain at 1:00 a.m.

You will drive around

the circle two times.

Samuel will remove his shirt

and hold it out the window...

to I.D. the car.

There is a pay phone

on the southeast corner.

The phone will ring.

He will answer and wait for instructions.

There is a map on the top of the phone.

Follow it.

Perfecto.

- What are you doing? He said no phones!

- Relax. Relax.

- I'm just trying to protect your daughter.

- Just get me there, please.

- What's going on?

- Hospitals can be very dangerous places.

Especially when you have

killed two corrupt cops.

[Man] Leave the money

in the trunk of the white car.

Then return to your car.

Do not look back.

[Spanish]

Remember, I'm a professional.

If you keep your word,

I will keep mine.

[Phone Ringing]

- Hello.

- Mr. Ramos.

You betrayed me.

You killed my nephew.

You took my money.

Seor Ramos...

[Continues In Spanish]

All right. Get out of here, all of you.

Get the f*** out of my house!

Okay, this is Lisa.

[Spanish]

I'm Pita's mother.

[Sniffs]

And I'm very sorry for whatever happened

to your nephew, but I beg you...

[Continues In Spanish]

This conversation

is not being recorded.

[Continues In Spanish]

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I wish we had talked sooner, senora.

I'm really sorry.

Now it is too late.

F*** off! Get the f*** out

of my f***ing house now!

Get out! Get out!

[Barking]

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, Ray.

- Where am I?

- Well, it looks like a dog hospital.

[Chuckles]

Manzano was afraid the cops

were gonna kill you.

How ya doin', Doc?

What's the matter?

She's de... dead, Crease.

It's a mess.

Somebody hijacked the drop,

and, uh...

the kidnapper's nephew was killed...

so he k... he killed Pita.

[Spanish]

[Bell Tolling]

No.

No.

Did you recognize any of these men?

No. Does that make me a suspect?

No.

It would be convenient, but no.

Um, maybe you should show me

some pictures of some Mexican cops.

- Maybe we'll get somewhere then.

- Those were all policemen.

- Maybe we'll get somewhere then.

- Those were all policemen.

Bad judicial cops.

Protected by a brotherhood.

Brotherhood?

A brotherhood called La Hermandad.

- [Exhales]

- You all set?

- Hmm?

- Right arm. Here.

- Okay?

- Yeah. I'm all right.

Let's go.

- Somebody's on us.

- Yeah. Lois Lane.

- Who?

- Mariana something, works for Reforma.

Newspaperjournalist.

Maybe she thinks you're a scoop.

I'll get you up to the border.

A friend of mine will take you to San Diego,

drop you right at the naval hospital.

- I'm not going, Ray.

- What are you gonna do?

Let's take a ride by the crime scene.

She can follow us.

[Footsteps Approaching]

Buenos das.

Mr. Creasy?

A lot of people are looking for you.

I'm Mariana Garcia Guerrero.

Reporter for Reforma.

[Soft Grunt]

- Nice to meet you.

- I found this across the street.

- [Exhales Loudly]

- Open it.

It's Santa Muerte.

Death worship.

- They've put a curse on you.

- Ha. They're a little late.

- What are you going to do?

- I'm gonna get in my truck and leave.

I can help you.

There's a brotherhood

called La Hermandad.

It protects high-ranking

government officials, corrupt police...

and organized crime at a level

that is too difficult for me to reach.

Okay.

And I think that you and Lupita Ramos

are victims of this organization.

I want to expose them. Talk to me,
