Panama I can sell for $13,500 a key.

$13,500? What, are you nuts?

$13,500? We still

got to take that sh*t to Florida.

Do you know

what that's like these days?

You got the Navy everywhere.

You got frogmen. You got EC-2s

with the satellite-tracking sh*t.

You got the f***ing Bell 209

assault choppers up the ass.

We're losing one

out of every nine loads.

That's no duckwalk anymore,

let me tell you.

Forget about $13,500.

What do you suggest

that is reasonable?

Excuse me. One moment.

What the f***'s the matter with you?

Are you negotiating for Frank Lopez?

Don't worry about it. Take it easy.

I'm not worried about it.

You should worry about it.

If he wants to make a deal,

it's up to him, not you.

We're doing this one deal.

That's it.

F*** you. How's that?

- F*** you.

- F*** you.

You need to open your eyes

and keep your mouth shut.

That's it. Let it go at that.

Don't worry about it.

Your head's in the wrong place.

You must watch out for yourself.

Why not talk to him?

You think he wants

to give you the money?

Shut the f*** up.

I'm doing the talking here, not you.

You're here to watch my back.

Watch my back.

Better than your front,

let me tell you.

That's easier to watch.

Close your mouth.

I can't wait to see what Frank's

gonna react to this one.

Just shut up.

I'm doing the talking here.

Now where were we?

Panama.

You're looking for a partner, right?

Something like that.

Look, Mr. Sosa,

we're getting ahead of ourselves.

I am down on Frank's authority

to buy 200 keys, that's it.

That's my limit. I got no right.

- Nobody got no right to negotiate...

- Let the man finish, okay?

Let him propose a proposition,

then we can talk more.

You got no authority here.

I started you in this business,

so shut the f*** up.

- Frank is gonna love it.

- That's up to Frank, not you!

I'm sorry about this, Mr. Sosa.

No, it is all right.

You're right.

Maybe you should talk to Frank.

Well, good.

I don't think it's something

I want to do on an overseas phone.

But as soon as I get back to Miami,

I will talk to Frank personally.

Good.

My associates can escort you

to my chopper...

to take you to Santa Cruz.

I have a jet there.

You'll be in Miami in five hours.

You'll be back here tomorrow

in time for lunch.

Good.

Good talking to you.

Why not leave your friend here?

While you're gone, he can tell me

how to run my business.

- I think Frank wants to see him.

- No, that's okay.

You tell Frank I'm keeping this guy

on ice for him.

I guess so.

Let's finish our lunch.

I have to hand it to you, Mr. Sosa.

You got everything a man could want.

I like you, Tony.

There is no lying in you.

Unfortunately, I don't feel the same

about the rest of your organization.

What do you mean by that, Mr. Sosa?

I'm talking about Omar Suarez.

This garbage was recognized

by my associate at lunch...

from several years ago in New York.

He was an informer for the police.

He put Vito Duval and Nello

and Gino Ramos away for life.

So how do I know

you're not a chivato, too, Tony?

Let's get this straight now.

I've never f***ed anybody over

who didn't have it coming.

You got that?

All I have in this world

is my balls and my word.

I don't break them for no one,

you understand?

That piece of sh*t up there,

I never liked him...

I never trusted him.

For all I know, he had me set up...

and had my friend

Angel Fernandez killed.

But that's history.

I'm here, he's not.

You want to go on with me, say it.

You don't, then you make a move.

I think you speak from the heart,

Montana.

But I say to myself...

this Lopez, your boss...

he had chivatos like that

working for him.

His judgment stinks.

So I think to myself...

how many other mistakes

has this Lopez guy made?

How can I trust his organization?

You tell me, Tony.

Frank is smart, you know?

You can't blame him for that animal.

It's a crazy business we're in,

you know?

That could happen to anyone,

even you.

Why don't I go back

and talk to Frank...

and work it out?

I'll fix things between us.

You got my word on that.

I think you and me,

we can work this thing out...

we do business together

for a long time.

Just remember...

I'll only tell you one time...

don't f*** me, Tony.

Don't you ever try to f*** me.

You what?

You made a deal

for f***ing $18 million...

without even checking with me?

Are you crazy, Montana?

Are you crazy?

- Coo. Take it easy.

- Coo, my ass!

At $10,500 a key. It's puro.

You can't lose money. No way.

We make $75 million on this deal.

$75 million.

That is serious money.

What is Sosa going to do...

when I don't come up

with the first $5 million?

What is he going to do?

Will he send me a bill?

He'll send a hit squad up here!

There'll be a war in the street.

Relax! Take it easy.

I'm in tight with Sosa.

You short a couple of million,

I go on the street for you.

I make a couple of moves...

a million here, a million there,

you got it.

You've been making moves

on your own?

I got ears, you know? I hear things.

What do you hear about Echevierra

and the Diaz brothers?

What about Gomez?

What'll he do

when you start moving 2,000 keys...

F*** Gaspar Gomez

and f*** the Diaz brothers!

F*** 'em all!

I'll bury those cockroaches!

What they ever do for us?

Look, Frank, the time has come.

We gotta expand.

The whole operation. Distribution.

New York, Chicago, LA.

We gotta set our own mark

and enforce it.

We gotta think big now.

Think big.

Like your friend Sosa.

Let me tell you something

about that greaseball cocksucker.

He is a snake, that's what he is.

You turn your back on him,

he'll stick it in.

You don't trust a guy like that.

You want me to believe...

Omar was a stoolie

because Sosa said so?

You bought that line?

Maybe I made a mistake

sending you down there.

Maybe you and Sosa

know something I don't know.

Like what?

Like what?

You tell me, "Like what."

You calling me a liar, Frank?

That what you're calling me?

Let's just say I want things

to stay the way they are for now.

You stall your deal with Sosa.

Stall it?

Okay, boss.

Come on.

I am the boss.

Sure, you're the boss.

Hey, Tony.

Remember I told you

when you started...

the guys who last

in this business...

are the guys who fly straight...

low-key, quiet.

And the guys who want it all...

chicas, champagne, flash...

they don't last.

You finished?

Can I go now?

Hi, there.

You just missed Frank.

Too bad.

Only I didn't come to see Frank.

This is not the time

or the place, Tony.

Make an appointment.

That's okay.

I got something important

I want to talk to you about.

So why don't we have

a couple of drinks...

act normal...

and just take it easy.

Come on. I like Scotch.

- Sure. Why not?

- Okay. I won't bite you.

We're all normal here.

I heard you and Frank

aren't working together anymore.

That's right.

I think it's easier, don't you?

Makes things easier.

Thank you.

Here's to "the land of opportunity."
