Narco-Saints (2022) s01e05 Episode Script

Episode 5

1
THIS SERIES IS INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY
BUT CHARACTERS AND EVENTS
HAVE BEEN REIMAGINED FOR DRAMATIC PURPOSES
How's my offer?
Enticing, right?
Offer?
You need my meth network in Europe
to sell your coke in a month.
It makes sense.
And it should be possible.
I'll give you a fair cut.
Take the deal.
If you don't sell your coke,
Cali Cartel will kill you.
I'd rather watch you die.
Why should I help you?
Seven million in three weeks.
Is that a good reason?
With you dead, I could control
the cocaine business in Suriname.
What are you trying to say?
I wanna keep selling cocaine
after this deal.
We don't trust each other enough
to have that conversation now.
After this deal, we can talk again.
Got it?
No.
I'm gonna love watching you die.
[tense music playing]
You think the Colombians will suddenly
hand over their product once I'm dead?
And will Suriname's president support you?
Chen Zhen.
In the name of the Lord,
I promise you one thing.
Whether I live or die,
you will never touch
a gram of cocaine.
Got that?
So,
take the deal, accept all my terms,
or go back to selling fucking meth.
[in Chinese] What is he plotting?
Damn it.
[in English] Okay.
I will help you this time.
[breathes deeply]
But like you said,
there's not much trust between us.
Not only that,
there's a traitor in your family
who switched sides.
If you kill him,
you will have my trust.
Or
give Byun to us.
Then I will sell your coke for you.
[chuckles softly]
You conniving fuck. You want the preacher.
Yes or no?
[David] Chen Zhen assured us
that if we use
his Chinatown meth routing network,
we can sell 1.5 tons of coke
in three weeks.
That's a lot better than I imagined.
What do you think, Byun?
Those numbers sound right?
Given the reach of Chinatowns
all over Europe and other places,
it's doable, sir.
[Jeon sighs, mutters]
I'm not sure.
Now that I know
what kind of volume you can move,
I think this
could strengthen that asshole.
[exhales] Never.
This batch could be one of many
you unload with Chen,
or stop collaborating.
The option's up to you.
[Jeon] Hmm.
Okay. David says yes.
We take a chance on these guys
and see how it goes.
I'd like to hear
what you gentleman think of this.
Will you be comfortable
working with a known heathen
who worships evil spirits?
Puerto Rico's another option
if you can't trust that scumbag.
[inhales] If I'm being completely honest,
there's a lot of bad blood
between me and Chen Zhen.
I'd rather not deal with that viper.
But the stakes are high here.
I wouldn't want to miss an opportunity
because of my past.
If this makes the sale go through,
of course, I support you, Pastor.
[Jeon] Mm-hmm.
I think I need to go into this
a bit deeper with David.
Excuse us while we continue in private?
Of course, sir.
[door opens]
Pastor.
If we move our product
successfully through this mess,
it will cement your cocaine kingdom
just like you imagined it.
Once this deal goes through,
you'll be in a position
to eliminate any annoyance you please.
- [machines whirring]
- [indistinct chatter]
[Ingu] I only came to the casino
to get a hold of Chen Zhen.
He doesn't pick up my calls.
Something's up, I think.
Speaking of which,
if Jeon and Chen Zhen actually do team up,
I assume this entire operation
will go down the drain?
That would be a worst-case scenario.
If it derails like that,
go to the US Embassy.
But if I drop off the radar
when crap hits the fan,
that'll make me
suspect number one for Jeon.
He'll come after me for sure.
Then my family will be in danger.
He could send people to Korea
after my wife and kids.
And there's another big issue.
Hey, my friend.
If I go home like this,
I'll resent the loss so bad,
I won't be able to sleep at night.
Do me one last favor
to salvage this, Ingu.
Get Jeon to reconsider Puerto Rico.
He and Chen are rivals,
and you can bet the last thing Jeon wants
is to be in his debt.
Okay. You sound pretty sure.
[inhales]
Oh, you're gonna
have to trust me on this, Ingu.
Sounds familiar.
I'm in no position to refuse.
What's the plan
if Jeon says no to my suggestion?
Do I keep pushing?
Just trust your gut
and do what you think is right.
Good agents know how to read the play.
[smacks lips]
All right, Sangman. I'll put my trust
in what you're saying one last time.
Bye.
Hey, tough guy.
This is for our friendship.
Take it.
Call me when you find your boss.
[theme music playing]
[upbeat synth music playing]
[exhales]
The gentle breeze
and moonlight on the water
is very friendly company.
Life is good.
You should join us.
Get your blood flowing.
What I want to flow
is your cocaine
out of here and into Korea.
And cash into my account.
[chuckles]
Gotta love your focus.
Am I the only one worried
about the schedule?
You have to decide about Puerto Rico now.
Brother Kang.
You do know
who Pablo Escobar was, don't you?
Mm-mm. Pablo?
Friend of yours?
Escobar was the most powerful cartel boss
in the world.
The guy made so much money
he earned more than General Motors.
He was rich, respected, and ruthless.
He owned most of Colombians
some way or other,
including his politicians.
The man might as well have been a king.
And in spite of all that
you know how he died?
Shot dead in the street like a dog.
Chased by the DEA from the US,
who flushed him out of his hideout.
The point is
The Americans cast a wide net.
Which is why
I gave President Delano my word
that under no circumstances
would I send coke to the United States.
I understand that, Pastor,
but you wouldn't be sending coke
to America.
It's a pass-through.
Anyway, Puerto Rico doesn't count.
It's not part of the US.
Technically, it's not.
But you have to remember
the Cali Cartel's my supplier,
and they wouldn't appreciate
my sending their coke on boats
transiting through their turf.
All of North America
belongs to the Colombians.
There are deadly angles to consider here.
You need to be patient.
Goo and I discussed
all the angles earlier.
He said
Puerto Rico is the only option
to get coke from Suriname to Korea.
Anyway, why should we
have to throw out our only option?
Because Cali won't like it
when we're not selling anything
in their territory?
Do you put your hand in the fire
to see if it's hot?
Huh?
I don't appreciate you doubting me.
If you keep refusing the suggestions
my partner and I bring to you,
I'll have to rethink
what we're doing here.
I can't wait around.
- [Ingu grunts]
- [Jeon breathing heavily]
[inhales] You gave me the impression
you were wise.
Why do insist on pushing my buttons?
Do you have a death wish?
I have to push because you won't jump,
chicken shit bastard.
[gasps]
- What did you just call me?
- [both grunt]
Spawn of the devil!
Demon motherfucker! [grunts]
[Ingu straining]
[Ingu gasps]
- Show some respect!
- [Ingu grunting]
[Jeon inhales sharply]
[Jeon breathing heavily]
Demons should be done away with.
Don't you think?
I know you're living on credit.
If you kill me, you lose every penny.
Go ahead, Jeon.
Kill me!
You and I'd rather stop living
then go back to surviving, right?
So take me home now, asshole,
and throw your life away.
If you have the guts!
[exhales]
[chuckles]
No doubt Lucifer
has commandeered your soul, brother.
It often happens when the spirit is weak,
and you lose faith.
Go get some rest.
The body must be healthy
for the soul to thrive.
- [Ingu groans]
- Wait.
Take him away!
This is fucking unbelievable!
Enjoy your last dregs
of happiness, asshole!
Your bullshit kingdom is about to crumble!
[chuckles]
- [Ingu grunts]
- [mobile vibrating]
Okay.
Let me see. Let me see.
CASINO SECURITY
[breathing heavily]
SANGMAN, TALKING TO THE PASTOR
IS LIKE PULLING TEETH.
I'LL DO THINGS MY WAY.
Stay.
Go away.
[guard grunts]
[guard groans]
I wanna go to the hospital,
not to your boss.
I fucking need stitches!
[Ingu breathing heavily]
[guard grunts]
[suspenseful music playing]
[mobile vibrating]
SANGMAN
DECLINE
[Ingu breathes deeply]
[knocks]
Come in.
[Ingu exhales]
You would really work with Pastor Jeon?
Just to take down Byun?
What are you talking about?
I don't know what you mean.
Bullshit.
I heard it from Jeon's right-hand man.
Even so,
Jeon would never kill his loyal servant.
He sells everything for money.
He sells God.
Selling Byun is easy.
Yeah?
Byun is a problem for us.
He knows my family's weaknesses.
But if he's eliminated
and we get some profit out of it,
it's not a bad deal. Hmm?
You have 100 soldiers, right?
You want to count the spoons in my drawer?
I worry you'll lose 100 heads for one man.
Oh, sorry.
One hundred one heads, with your head.
[exhales]
You're gonna tell me that Pastor Jeon
will try to kill me after this?
So I should stop dealing with him?
You say that
because you lose all the money
if he uses my route.
[chuckles]
[chuckles softly] You're right,
but you forget one thing.
Why would Jeon need your meth route
in the future?
If you sell his coke this time,
he doesn't need you and me.
He'll be even bigger
than the Colombia Cali Cartel. Hmm?
[smacks lips] Ah, so hot.
[inhales] Let's go cool off.
Look at this.
So the rumors are true, huh?
Where is this place?
Not knowing is better.
You get close, his guys will shoot you.
That's why there are only rumors about it.
Outside people never see this place.
You sell his coke,
he can finish his kingdom.
Then he doesn't need us.
Because he can make
huge money in his kingdom.
And we're done!
Those are just photos.
I can't even tell
where they're taken from.
Okay.
You choose.
Sell Pastor's coke and die.
Or kill him and take this kingdom with me.
[tense music playing]
[chuckles]
Yeah.
You just don't get it, right?
Let's say we kill Jeon.
What happens with the president
and the Cali Cartel?
You think they'll help us? [chuckles]
I don't think so. [chuckles]
Chen Zhen.
I got this watch from Delano
as a token of friendship.
I can talk to him.
Colombia is the same!
The world talks in one language.
Anyway, people believe
each other with this.
The president and the Colombians
can bond over dollar bills.
Now.
Let's kill Jeon.
We can work together
with the original plan.
[thug in Chinese] Boss.
I got a call from David.
They are handing over Byun.
[in English]
Did David say they'll give you Byun?
Hmm? Did you make a deal with Jeon?
Just bet on me.
I'll make you the bigger man.
Brother,
remember my words.
Fight for money.
It's time to fight.
This is Chen Zhen.
You will give me Byun?
Yes, we'll hand him over.
Whether you kill him or not,
that's up to you.
[Chen] I'm glad to hear that.
We'll give you the time and the place
for the handoff soon.
[line ends]
Chen Zhen's got something up his sleeve.
I can tell. He's acting too fucking clean.
Something doesn't feel right.
Let's double-up on the vigilance.
Demons are after us, David.
[David] Yes, sir.
[sighs]
[Ingu] Brother, remember my words.
Fight for money.
It's time to fight.
[Sihyeon] Excuse me, sir.
If you mention this conversation to him,
he's going to realize
we're using his phone for surveillance.
You know that, right?
Wait, are you telling me
you told your people to tap into my phone?
What do you mean
what are Chen and I up to?
Isn't the purpose of your department
to gather information?
Have your people figure it out.
Ingu, if you act like a loose cannon,
we're not gonna be able to keep going.
You know what?
I don't care
if the operation keeps going or not.
I'm just trying not to get killed.
The worst thing that can happen is
for Jeon and Chen Zhen to work together.
I'll be expendable!
You told me to trust my instincts.
I need you to back me up on this
because I know these assholes.
[breathes deeply]
All right.
How do you want us to help you?
[exhales] I need to know Jeon's location
and movements.
Is that doable?
[Changho] Jeon is on the move right now.
You're gonna have to adjust
your expectations.
Things won't go down the way you wanted.
I'm in survival mode.
I'm only doing this
to save my own ass, not yours.
Whatever your gut tells you
is the right move.
I sure hope it works in your favor.
[electronic whirring, beeping]
Our focus right now
is tracking Jeon's movements.
Put in the call to the US Embassy
and ask them to be on standby.
EMBASSY OF THE UNITED STATES, PARAMARIBO
They're on the move.
Take them out, or we die.
[thug in Chinese] Quickly, get in!
[tense music playing]
[in English] Three green vans just left.
They all went through the main entrance.
Nothing else to report.
[David] Good work, Preacher.
Stay focused and the lookout
for anything unusual.
Take care, bro.
[David inhales]
Call Chen Zhen now. Tell him we're ready.
Yes, sir.
We're ready for the handoff. Stand by.
And Byun is on the roof of 89 Kalpoeweg.
The area's clear, sir.
I think it's best
if we move the product first.
Come on.
[tense music continues]
[mobile vibrates]
CHEN ZHEN
SENDING
[tires screech]
[indistinct chatter]
[in Chinese] Move! Hurry up!
[in English] Fuckers are coming for us!
[exhales]
Shit!
[tense music continues]
[thug 1 in Chinese] Go up!
[Preacher in English] Shit!
[thug 2 in Chinese] Hurry!
[shell casings falling]
[mobile vibrating]
[Chen in English] I got Byun.
Now give us the coke.
I'll tell you where it is when we leave.
[Chen] You look pretty busy.
Just hand it over, chief.
You love your fucking god, don't you?
Go see him today.
[dramatic music playing]
[brakes hiss]
You son of a bitch!
[grunts]
[grunts]
[grunts]
[man grunts] Ah!
[Preacher grunts]
[thug 3 in Chinese] Get up!
[thug 4] Fuck!
[grunting]
[all grunting]
Ah!
[Jeon grunts]
[in English]Follow me, Pastor!
Fuck!
Go! Go!
[thug 5 in Chinese] Chase him! Quickly!
[grunts, yells]
[tense music continues]
[grunting]
[man yells]
[grunts]
[grunts]
Ah!
[grunts]
- [man whimpering]
- [Preacher panting]
[grunts]
[man gasping]
[breathing heavily]
[tense music continues]
Oh shit, they fucking ran away?
Get the coke! Get the coke!
We don't have time. We have to hurry!
No, no, no, no, no!
Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
[Gallas] Let's go, Pastor, let's go!
Come on, come on!
We've gotta go! Come on!
[sirens wailing]
[tense music continues]
[mobile vibrating]
CHEN ZHEN
You got Jeon?
[Chen] He got away.
Jesus Christ! You had the guy cornered!
What about the coke?
I've got it.
Take the coke and hide it in a safe place.
Stay there until my call, got it?
[sirens wailing]
[in Chinese] Don't worry about them.
Hurry up.
[in English] I heard there was a shootout
in Paramaribo. Bodies everywhere.
Is that what you planned? A massacre?
No, nothing went according to plan.
Jeon's still alive.
[sighs]
The safest place for you now
is the US Embassy.
We're gonna have to pull the plug
on the entire operation.
I can make a few calls
to get a lid on the massacre here
and ensure your family stays safe.
[Ingu] Wait a second.
This fiasco guarantees
the pastor and Chen Zhen
will never consider
doing business together.
So going forward,
Puerto Rico's back on the table.
I think it would be better
if I play this out.
I think you've gotten in
way over your head.
- We're not playing a game here.
- There's a fucking understatement.
I have to see Jeon again.
It just might work out.
I'll talk to you later, okay, Sangman?
And don't do anything I wouldn't do.
Hmm?
Brother Kang, Pastor Jeon
wants to talk to you. Come with us.
He wants to talk.
Hallelujah.
[ominous music playing]
I heard there was a shitload
of bullets flying earlier.
[David chuckles]
And you also must've heard
we had to abandon the warehouse
and all the coke.
Yeah, and now Chen Zhen has it. [chuckles]
So, we gathered everyone
whose ever been to the warehouse.
Good call.
Where the hell is it?
[David chuckles]
Funny.
You've taken pictures
inside there, asshole.
Yeah, after I was taken there
with a hood on my head like a prisoner.
These are regular glasses,
not X-ray goggles.
[door opens]
You keep leaving without permission.
[Ingu chuckles]
You're the reason I had to leave.
Why would I ask for permission?
You sent me to the hospital.
I wasn't gonna ask for a ride.
[Preacher exhales] Pastor.
This demon shows no respect, and tries
to talk his way out of everything.
If you'll allow me,
the only way to get the truth out of him
is to inflict pain.
You psycho fuck. Have you lost it? Huh?
I think you're looking to compensate
for the ass-kicking you got.
The warehouse? Huh?
You had me put a bag over my head,
which threw my blood pressure, by the way.
You guys made sure I didn't know
where the warehouse is.
I'm the only one in this room
who shouldn't be interrogated,
for Christ's sake!
This is no way
to treat your business partners.
- It's obvious that the rat is one of you.
- [chuckles]
This is the last straw.
Sangman and I are pulling out.
[Jeon snaps fingers]
Stay with us, Brother Kang.
It would be a shame
to miss us doing God's work.
I forgot to mention,
I narrowed down the list of suspects
who would've been able
to cause all this trouble.
Who planned the route to Brazil
and the ambush, huh?
The same person who worked out
the details for today? Huh?
- [Ingu claps]
- The answer's right before your eyes.
Why are you dragging it all out
when you already know who betrayed you?
[David scoffs] Shit!
[chuckles] Serpentine fucker
trying to deflect suspicion.
Look. [inhales]
What we need to focus on
is who actually benefits
if our arrangement
with Chen falls through.
[chuckles]
- Shit.
- Transiting through Chinatown
might be slower,
but Puerto Rico's a deathtrap.
Yet you insist it's our only option!
Who the hell do you think it is?!
Ah! [groans]
[tuts]
You have a lot of balls
raising your voice in my house.
When I was on my way
to that shitshow at the warehouse earlier,
I had Sangjun search the house.
I had him go through all your belongings,
your rooms, your cars, the works.
Every one of you.
Of course
that included
special guests like you. Right?
Go ahead,
tell us who the traitor is, Pastor.
Then put a bullet through his head.
[chuckles]
[body thuds]
[Jeon breathing heavily]
[shell casings fallin]
[Jeon breathing heavily]
[Jeon sighs]
[Jeon sniffles]
What do you think of God's will?
The rat is dead.
Satisfied?
Stupid motherfucker.
He was working
with that bastard Chen Zhen all along.
Sangjun found this
in a secret compartment in David's car.
He never reported
having this phone, obviously.
We looked up the call history.
And guess where
almost every single call was made.
To a number
in the Chinatown area.
[Ingu exhales]
David was at the top of my list.
Yeah, but the thing
the thing is,
deep in my gut, it feels wrong.
David was always a spineless coward.
Something like this takes nerves of steel,
so he had to be working with someone.
[Ingu exhales]
He probably just followed Chen's orders.
Chen Zhen's tough,
but he has shit in here.
They're puppets.
Someone else is pulling the strings
and fucking with us.
[Ingu exhales]
Look.
I agree with you,
Chen's being an idiot,
but that's for you to deal with.
I just wanna get going, get the show
on the road, and move the coke.
Where do we ship through, huh?
Puerto Rico?
Yeah.
If we had just gone with Puerto Rico
from the start
Puerto Rico isn't happening.
Chen Zhen got hold
of the entire shipment, remember?
So get it back, asshole.
What? You're just gonna let him steal
all your product?
I mean, look. Didn't you use to be part
of the same gang?
Make some calls,
and find out what your old friends know.
[exhales]
I'm not calling those guys.
Why not?
If I were you,
I'd already be on the phone. Shit.
Are you all gonna stand around
doing nothing?
Fucking unbelievable.
Christ. Come on, Jeon.
Suriname is tiny, isn't it?
All we have to do is put the word out,
and someone will come through.
You haven't been excused yet, sir.
The pastor isn't finished talking.
Are you a robot or what?
Hey, where's your sense of urgency?
Are you sure you're Korean?
Time is not on our side here.
We need to jump all over this.
And get the coke.
[Jeon] Sangjun.
It's all right,
he'll bring the coke back to us.
[chuckling]
My God! [chuckles]
[breathing nervously]
SANGMAN, I THINK I'M DONE WITH THE PASTOR.
I'M MOVING ON MY OWN NOW.
TO: SANGMAN
[man in Chinese] Hey, go back!
Move back!
[in English] What're you doing?
[in Chinese] Go back.
Only Chinese can enter.
[in English] What the hell did you say?
Are you the police? Huh?
Get the fuck away.
[in Chinese] You motherfucker.
[dramatic music playing]
[Ingu] Ah, Chen Zhen.
You're being careful. That's good.
Problem is, I can't get in.
[Chen] You knew Jeon
would put a tail on everyone.
You said it yourself, stay safe.
Okay, okay, okay. I got it, I got it.
You have the coke? Where is it?
It's in a safe place.
Where the hell is this place?
What if I tell you and he tortures you?
It's better you don't know.
What? You're going to hide forever?
Are you an idiot?
The pastor is still alive.
He's gonna try to kill me.
I need to be sure I'm safe
before going out.
If you want, you can kill him.
Now he has too many guards.
It's impossible to get to him.
If you kill him, everything would be fine,
but you failed.
How can you stay like this?
Let's meet and talk.
Find a way to kill him, brother.
Until then,
hiding out here is the safest thing.
For all of us.
[sighs]
[tires screech]
[tense music playing]
[Ingu] I was gonna wait,
then tell the pastor where Chen Zhen
stashed the coke, but it didn't work out.
The bastard wants to stay holed up
where he's safe.
[tires screech]
Yes, we're aware. We were monitoring
through another channel.
You know Jeon's advisor David?
He was pretty much his right-hand man.
Jeon took him out.
He thought he was the traitor.
I'm aware of that too.
So was he
[tires screech]
Hold on.
[sighs]
Jeon's guys are on my tail.
I need you to make a move
pretty quick here, okay?
Chen Zhen is focused on one thing.
He says he won't budge unless I kill Jeon.
[tense music playing]
[both grunting]
- Ingu, what's going on?
- [Ingu] Get off!
[grunts] What the fuck is this?
[Preacher breathing heavily]
[grunts]
You idiot!
Are you out of your fucking mind?
You bastard!
Sangman and I are talking.
That was Sangman?
Did he ask how the food was?
[grunts]
[Ingu grunting]
[Ingu groans]
This is Kim Heewon.
The operation's in the toilet right now.
Is this a W3?
Yeah. I'll let you explain to Kang.
Hey.
Listen, Ingu.
You're with agent Kim Heewon.
He's our NIS operative on the ground.
You need to do what he tells you.
Listen to him, please.
I don't know
what the hell is going on, but
I'll do what he says.
We have to get moving.
I'll explain what I can.
We have to be careful.
Sangjun is here too.
Jeon told us to watch your every move.
Let me get this straight.
You started off
in Chen Zhen's Chinatown gang,
then pretended to defend the pastor?
It's not the time to discuss that.
The ambush at the warehouse.
Were you behind that?
Yeah.
You know killing Jeon
solves absolutely nothing?
Otherwise,
I would've done it myself on day one.
So your solution is making civilians
part of your plans,
and blaming them when it goes wrong?
I'm cheap labor.
I expect at least a thank you.
You'd have a bullet
through your head right now
if I hadn't planted that phone
in David's car, Brother Kang.
You're the one who should be thankful.
From now on, you only do
what agent Choi and I tell you.
No more flying by
because what you do affects
not only everyone in Suriname,
but the people at home too. Am I clear?
I'm aware of the consequences,
but show some respect.
Aren't we the same age?
What?
I can treat you more like Byun
if you prefer.
You know we're the same age.
[both chuckle]
[both exhale]
Sure.
Your plan was to get Chen
to tell you where he was
so Jeon could get the coke.
And so will to Puerto Rico, right?
Yeah, only Chen Zhen
is holed up who knows where,
so that blew up in my face.
Sangjun and I were told to follow you,
while I try to find the coke
using all my past connections
like you suggested.
There must be only a few places
where Chen and the cocaine could be safe.
I know of about five or six, at most.
Only he's mobilized his forces
to block all access to Chinatown,
so we're screwed.
[sighs]
Hold on a minute.
He doesn't want to see you,
but he'll take your calls?
PRESIDENTIAL PALACE, SURINAME
[dramatic music playing]
You bring me such difficult decision
so early in the morning.
The presidential election is coming up.
Don't you want to be re-elected?
You could be in trouble
if things stay this way.
Exactly.
That's why we need to manage
the Chinese votes more carefully.
Foolish to send troops
to Chinatown so easily.
[sighs]
Come on up.
You know about that dead body hanging
in the Chinatown streets?
I do.
The Chinese mob moss Chen Zhen
put him there
after cutting off his hands and feet.
The Chinese community
has been complaining about him
and this makes them more upset.
Doesn't he control Chinese votes anyway?
What if I told you
I could get him replaced?
What?
Are you kidding me?
[knocks on door]
[Jeon] Come in!
He is the man
who will become the new boss.
He knows the Chinese family very well.
He is Korean-Chinese,
so he can communicate with everyone.
Most important,
his belief in God is deep.
That's good point.
But killing a Chinese man
will make Chinese people more angry.
I'll send someone to watch over situation.
Watch what?
Our fate will be decided
in just a few hours!
In the worst case,
Cali can kill us.
Why don't you understand?!
How dare you, Pastor?
I'm not telling you to stop
controlling the votes,
but to replace the manager
with someone more useful.
I'll get you re-elected.
Just send in your troops,
and I'll let you know what to do next.
[exhales]
Mr. President,
I promise you this.
If you decide now,
you will make
one million more every month.
At least.
[in Dutch] General Henk,
this is the president.
Which troop is available
to be mobilized now?
To Chinatown.
[in English] Hallelujah.
[tense music playing]
[in Dutch] Everybody, fire!
[all screaming]
[indistinct screams]
[in Chinese]
Boss! Soldiers have barged into Chinatown!
They're killing our brothers down there!
- [man 1in] Get more things!
- [man 2] Find your places!
[in Dutch] This is an operation
to root out the gang
that is involved in murders and drugs.
We will not harm innocent civilians,
so stay in your homes.
I repeat.
This is an operation to root out the gang
involved in murders and drugs.
We will not harm innocent civilians,
so stay in your homes.
[mobile vibrating]
- [in English] What is happening?
- Pastor sent the army. Where are you?
The army has surrounded me completely!
What the fuck is happening?
Hang in there. I'll get you out.
Where are you now?
The soldiers will find you soon. Tell me!
At Wang's shop.
[Ingu] Okay.
Wait there. I'll tell you what to do.
Fire!
Shoot them!
[tense music continues]
[tense music building]
Hey, brother.
What should I do?
[Ingu sighs]
You fucking
[exhales]
PRESIDENTIAL OFFICE, SURINAME
[in Dutch] The drug ring that's persecuted
and killed the people of Suriname
has been rooted out.
Innocent lives have been sacrificed
due to this war,
but we won in the end.
[camera shutters clicking]
Remind yourself of the motto of Suriname,
justice, piety, and fidelity.
Today, we made a statement.
With piety, we found justice
and protected our fidelity.
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
We thank God for protecting us.
Fellow citizens, let us all pray
for Suriname tonight.
Amen.
[groans]
[news reporter in English] You're watching
live footage from the Suriname capital.
The Suriname government has
proclaimed war against a local drug gang.
It is said to be behind
the recent Brazilian border skirmish
and the Paramaribo massacre.
[Jeon] Today, God Almighty,
Commander of the armies of heaven
took revenge on his enemies.
Tonight we celebrate
as our savior's vengeance burns bright.
The Lord's sword is satisfied
after slaying his enemy.
[all] Amen!
Brothers and sisters of the truth,
you are witness to what I prophesized
and to what our Lord promised.
Our fellow worshipers
who gave their lives to protect us
are in a better place.
In God's holy grace,
all of Suriname is a holy temple worthy
of our Lord's domain.
Let us praise our God
by lifting our voices to heaven.
[all] Amen!
[dramatic music playing]
[grunts]
Excuse me, ladies.
I was told you were instrumental
in getting Chen out of hiding
and getting my coke back,
like you said you would.
True on both counts.
I have to admit, you pissed me off.
Except, I appreciate a man
who stands his ground.
The promise of money
helped me grow roots like an oak.
I thought this might be the storm
that finally knocked me over.
It's gotten a lot harder
to stay standing through it all.
Pastor.
[Jeon exhales]
What's going on?
We're getting resistance
from Chen's European dealers.
The ones from mainland China
want nothing to do with us.
If we have to bypass those guys,
we'll need to find another route,
which will change the whole timeframe.
So how long?
Tell me how long for us
to move all of our product.
We're looking at, uh
around three to four months, sir.
[sighs]
- [mobile vibrating]
- [Jeon sighs]
[mobile vibrating]
Ingu, what's up?
Where are you? Getting a good breakfast?
[Ingu] Just finished. I ate so much,
I think my stomach's about to explode.
Sangman, listen.
Pastor Jeon wants to talk to you.
[Jeon] It's been a while, brother.
Yes, it has.
What can I do for you?
I have one question to ask you.
Is Puerto Rico still a viable option
at this point?
[sighs] Why do you ask?
[Jeon] I was wondering
if we could let bygones be bygones
and continue our previous discussion.
"Once burned, twice shy."
You know this saying?
I'm not sure I can trust you
not to back out on us again.
I understand you 100%.
Trust is hard to earn,
so I propose a deal
that will help with that.
Another deal, Jeon?
I've trusted you before,
and it's gotten me nowhere.
I know that.
Listen.
Can you confirm something here?
If I put all the product in one shipment,
could you transfer the payment
all in one shot?
Hmm.
I've committed those funds elsewhere,
since I didn't think
the deal was happening.
I'll have to check my numbers again.
There's a chance by the time Brother Kang
can get the goods to Puerto Rico,
I might be able to secure the cash.
Although, there's still
the fact that I don't trust you one bit.
Confirm you can pay on arrival,
and I'll get the goods to Puerto Rico
as soon as I can.
Soon as you can?
I'll need a bit more to go on.
[Jeon] With the contacts I have here,
when I ask for a plane,
they don't ask questions.
I'm gonna call it in for takeoff
in about three hours.
Can you move it that quickly?
You have a deal, Jeon.
Great. I knew it'd work.
- [Changho sighs]
- [all cheer]
- Oh wow!
- [Sihyeon chuckles]
Oh, you did it! Great work!
Good job, everybody!
- [Sihyeon] We did it!
- [agent] Way to go.
[Changho exhales]
Brother Kang, the game is on.
Finally.
Looks like the deep-rooted tree
is about to bear fruit.
