It's on the house.
You need someone like me.
Ah, sí.
Why? I'm white, I'm a citizen.
I blend in over there.
You don't.
So you'll be my man in El Paso.
For 15%.
You're too skinny.
You need una steak.
We go to dinner one night.
Does that mean we have a deal? Five kilos per week.
We meet, I pay you.
Entonces? We get to know each other.
I can do that.
I'm a nice guy, you know.
Okay.
Last man I killed, was nice enough to cut his dick, balls, and lips off.
And send to his wife.
Didn't want her to get lonely.
Detective Cross? You remember me? - Steven Linder.
- That's right.
How are you? Fine.
What are you doing here? Well my bride is missing.
She was working at a factory in Juárez.
Last seen three days ago.
Have you talked to her family? No family.
Hmm, friends? She's what you call uh, alone in life.
Except for you.
I misspoke when I called her my bride.
She's, uh, more like my intended.
Steven, you were a person of interest in the bridge case.
- I am aware.
- I found burned women's clothes up at your trailer.
How do I know you didn't take this girl? That's not who I am.
Who are you? I help people.
I remember you saying that.
Women who are being abused by a violent husband, partner, or what have you.
How do they find you? I've become kin of known for this sort of work.
And you bring them here? I have medical supplies, nutritious food, water safe place to rest.
You, you can look inside.
Stand back, please.
I burn their things so they can't be tracked.
Where do they go next? A safe house.
Why do you do it? 'Cause I can.
That's pretty unusual, Steven.
- Yeah, but not illegal.
- No, no.
Why did you call Eva you bride when she wasn't? Because I am bound to her.
Does she feel the same way? You have to ask her.
Is there any chance she just went back to her boyfriend? No, not really, nope.
I'll keep looking for her.
Tirelessly, until I find her.
But I think law enforcement would be helpful.
I'm not a Juárez cop.
Well, the car that picked her up had Texas plates.
Will you help me find her? Doesn't the sun feel nice? Yeah, if you're into skin cancer.
Fresh air.
It's not overrated.
I feel like I'm 80 years old.
'Cause you're living like an invalid.
Uh, hello I am an invalid.
- You're ready to wheel yourself.
- What? You need to learn how to use this.
It's only temporary.
Well, who's gonna push you around in the meantime? Not me.
I feel shitty.
It's depressing here.
You got to come back to work.
You know what I was thinking when I was sailing over that bridge? Check me out, I'm superman.
Don't let me die.
I want to live.
And you did.
Yeah, but for what? Life is short, and I've already wasted so much of mine.
I don't recommend it by the way.
Okay, Yoda.
Yeah.
I saw you fall Daniel.
It was scary as shit.
It was pretty scary from my point of view, too.
I'm really glad you're alive.
You love me.
You just want to have my babies.
See you back there.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
I was I was kidding.
Hey, don't just walk away.
I hey, I only got one arm.

You don't remember? My mom always liked eggs in the morning, after a rough night.
Thank you.
Mmm Did you make your bed? What are you, my mother? When my sister died I stayed with Hank and his wife for a while.
Carmen had one rule for me, "always get up and make your bed.
" No matter how bad I felt, I had to face the day.
I think I'll go into the station today.
- Say hello.
- Can I come? You want to run the girl's name.
Yes, please.
Okay.
See, I remember some things.
Eva Guerra? Marco.
And what brings you here? I thought our work was done.
Looking for a missing girl last seen in Juárez.
Uh, I said we could run her name.
Of course.
Her name is Eva Guerra.
Anything? No record of her.
No one matches her description? So sorry.
Now, if you'll excuse us I honestly I cannot eat another bite.
So much better than hospital food.
No beer for you? No.
A back rub would be great, though.
So does everything still work down there? - Elena.
- What? It's just a question.
My mighty twig and my berries are fine, thank you.
Hey, what's she saying? She's talking about me, huh? She doesn't think Adriana should marry you.
Yeah, you can say that again.
Oh, ay, chicas.
Nice, calm evening at home, huh.
This is the crazy house.
I'm so sick of it.
Hey, you know, maybe we could go, like, get some ice cream - or something? - We can't.
Because I date women, - I'm an embarrassment to the family.
- ¿Qué? Oh, shit.
There's something about the chorizo on your side.
You start your mornings in Juárez often? I figured I had the best chance of you showing up if I came here.
So? So I wanted to talk, that's all.
Occurred to me you might not be at court today.
I haven't decided yet.
Well, you're up, you're dressed, you're shaved.
That's a good sign.
You able to find any peace? Ten seconds a day.
Is that right? When I open my eyes in the morning for ten seconds, I don't remember he's gone.
That this is my life now.
Can you let the system take care of David Tate, so you can take care of yourself? I don't know.
Well, he's gonna go to prison with or without your testimony.
- Then it doesn't matter, does it? - But if you say it and I'm gonna say it, Sonya's gonna say it, but if you say it you just maybe might leave it there a little bit.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
Well, it's all a guessing game, isn't it? But just saying that you might get yourself another second in the morning.
Gracias.
You came.
Yeah, I came.
Good for you.
Hey.
Thank you.
Okay.
Okay.
