I'll just take a nap.

Oh, no, nope, nope.

Sit up, okay.

You could have run away.

You're a good mama.

Yeah, I don't know how to be much

more than a good looking guy,

but I did take an extensive first aid class

when I found out Hannah was pregnant

and it suggests you stay active and

alert when you get a concussion.

- There you go.

- Mama, you make the best spaghetti.

Oh, geez.

My god, you guys are making

me lose my sh*t.

Bueno, bueno, bueno.

Tell your Madre I I say hello.

Did they find him?

I think the jungle

may have found him.

That's him?

One gringo marching

with a group of armed rebels?

Yes, I would say that is him.

Who the heck is that?

That could be trouble.

And there's no way to get around

the mountain before they do.

Well, I mean, is there

another way down?

Come, come, come.

Follow where the yellow crested

blackbirds are flying away from.

Got it.

Come on, guys,

we've all made mistakes.

I mean, I've made mistakes.

My wife,

she wants to divorce me.

You've gotta do something

to make it better.

Like move ahead

and make amends, right?

You sound exactly like

our current government.

Saying all these things, excuses,

promises that don't mean anything

because you're not giving us the one

thing we need to make us happy.

No more political murders?

Oh please,

the country has those.

I'm talking about choice.

You know, you can't control her to

do exactly what you want her to do.

Control her? Please, it's

not like I'm holding a gun

to her head

and being a dictator.

Yeah, Presidente apendejo

definitely said that.

You know, your head,

you're so far into the future.

Worrying, worrying about

your place inside that...

You've never been present enough

for her to be heard.

- Oh, she just can't ignore...

- Let alone make a decision on her own.

- The wicked barbarity of the past.

- But that's the point.

Give her the choice

in the present.

And then, I don't know,

maybe support her?

At least she made the choice.

And usually, however... however

begrudgingly, we have to rationalize

and, you know,

even if the situation

is clearly worse.

Clearly, worse.

At least we are happier to have had

the freedom to make the choice.

Isn't that what

we're fighting for here?

Isn't it?

It's not about promises

for the future,

it's about working hard

in the present

to make the future that we want.

That's worth all this.

All this,

come se dice... sh*t!

Exact o .

I guess that's the first step.

Vamos.

No, just...

Even I am afraid of this one.

I don't know who

maintains it anymore.

Dammit, what kind

of Babymoon is this?

I mean, all I wanted was one

of those nice relaxing

couples' beach massages

with those cute little...

Those stones, those hot stones,

and then those

cup things that leave

those really horrible marks

on your back.

Is that too much to ask for?

Your call.

Thanks.

Like this is gonna save my life.

I can't do this.

Let's just call for back up.

Diago.

Hey papa, did we get those guys?

No, no, not yet.

Diago.

Wow, he sure loves justice.

Yes. His mother was killed

in criminal violence.

As proud as I am

of the man he's becoming,

as tough as I am,

the loss of a parent

is a sadness

that I cannot replace.

Diago?

Oy, Diago?

Diago?

We need to move to the other

side of the mountain.

Let's do this.

Oh, my god!

Mira.

They found us.

Into the jungle!

Spread out!

You, stay here.

Who is it?

This could jeopardize

the entire movement.

Seora, kill the gringo.

Stop.

- Trace.

- Han na, stay back.

- Stay back.

- I brought help.

- Baby.

- You brought the government?

Yes, you're surrounded.

Let him go.

- Don't do this.

- Hey, hey we had a promise, remember?

Rule number three,

you never break that.

They're going to take

you away, trace.

No one will know

what happened here.

Maybe like this, someone

will come and investigate.

You're right, you're right.

Okay, this can be solved

with my death,

or... or it can be solved

with your choice.

Remember your choice?

Yeah, you've got a choice

right now, you can choose.

You don't, I will.

- Whoa.

- All of you.

- Hey, hey.

- All of you.

- Juan!

- Yesenia.

- Juan

- Yesenia.

- Juan

- Yesenia.

All the guns are pointed at me!

Okay, okay.

Told you, son, we know

every leaf of this jungle.

So we got it, right?

- The reward money for finding him?

- Don't have him yet.

They don't call me

the tranq queen

because of my raging

barbiturates problem.

Hey! Hey!

Yesenia, just run.

VETE!

Help!

My wife has been shot!

Dammit!

I never miss.

I meant to shoot her

in the chest.

- Que?

- Whoa!

Have a bowl of quinoa

and chill out, dude.

It's just a tranquilizer.

It's a 100% organic

tranquilizer. You're good.

Whoa, I'm dizzy,

but I'm okay. I'm okay.

Embrace it, all right?

You'll have a really nice nap.

You'll be a awake in,

like, two days?

Two days, tops.

No, these are not for humans.

At her body weight and condition, the

lowered heart rate can kill them both.

Both?

He's okay.

They usually don't kill.

Most people.

She's pregnant.

Oh, come on!

Yes, sir, we have visual.

Extraction is imminent.

Hey! Hey!

Trace, that is a U.S.

special forces MH6.

They're not going to help. They're

orders are going to be to take you

across the border

to the consulate.

That may be

too much time for her.

Hey, listen, listen,

the best thing to do

is to get her to the village

down the road to stabilize her.

I know exactly

where the doctor is.

Okay, okay, Hanna, baby.

- Honey, did you hear that?

- Hi.

- Hey. Hey baby.

- Hi.

What do you want to do?

You've got the choice, okay?

I'll stay with them.

Stay with them?

Okay, you stay with them.

We'll stay, we'll stay.

Uh, actually there's a reward,

so we're gonna have to...

No, they're right. If you stay with

us they're going to hunt us down.

Go with them.

Go with them.

Okay, I'll go, okay?

Hanna, honey,

you're going to be okay.

- Okay.

- You're gonna be okay by yourself.

You're always okay by yourself.

But I need...

The village... people.

Okay, baby, I know

what you mean.

I'll be your macho man, okay?

All right, okay, everybody,

everybody hide. All right?

Thank you.

Hey, trace, rule number three.

Hey!

Trace?

No.

Am I dead?

No, you'll be fantastic.

Both of you.

Good.

He's not going to be some sort

of adrenaline junkie now, is he?

Good joke.

Strong.

You see, seora, never be afraid

to believe in good people.

America will be happy

to see you.

America?

President back home, I've set up a

press conference at the embassy.

Great, Shannon,

I'm going to want

you to get every media outlet

we can get to be there

at this press conference.

- Congratulations.

- Oh, thank you.

You know, see, I've been

polling kind of cold, lately.

- And this is the..

- Senator Lopez. Fantastic.

You're looking good.

Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Kind of cold and this is going

to be that one moment

I need to push us toward the
