The door is always open for a family.
FIONA: It's a photo ID
of a very mean woman.
I want to use that to create
a rideshare app for StripRide.
What if we move into your place?
I'm ready to move forward.
BENNY: Check the views. 400,000, bro!
Hashtag "Dancing with danger."
You said you were
gonna replace your brother
as head of Sin Cara and turn
his mining project over to us.
He's giving you until midnight
to make good on your deal.
THONY: Half a dose of
opioids in your glass of wine,
just enough to knock
you out for the night.
You cartel bitch.
I learned from the best.
[CELLPHONE BUZZING]

- Morning, Mrs. Sanchez.
- [GASPS]
Geez, Peter.
[LAUGHING] You scared me.
Apologies, Mrs. Sanchez.
How's your wife? Cynthia?
Oh, she's good. She's
probably taking Betty
on her sunrise ride right about now.
- Oh.
- She loves that horse.
How about you go and join her?
Take some apples.
Horses like apples, right?
Couple. And enjoy your morning.
[SIGHS GRATEFULLY]
I'll secure the perimeter before I go.
Nah, don't worry about it.
The morning crew's coming in 20 minutes.
We'll be fine.
Gracias.
- Have a good day.
- You, too.

JORGE: Buenos dias.
Good morning.
Where's Tia Ramona?
She said she'd make us sopapillas.
She's still out?
She must have really
overdone it on the vino.
Maybe I should go check on her.
It's not that. No, I already checked.
Uh, I think she's sick with the flu.
I want everyone, kids, to
stay away from her room.
Okay?
I swapped for the night shift
so I can help her get
some fluids this morning.
Do you mind taking them to school?
Are you taking care of Ramona?
You're not planning
on killing her, are you?
Is that an option? No, I just
I really don't want it to spread to us.
Okay. Niños, vamonos.
Time for school. Let's go.
- Don't forget, Violeta has ballet after school.
- Yep.
And Greta's gonna pick
you up, both of you, okay?
- Where is Greta?
- Doctor's appointment.
Mom, I hate watching ballet.
- Okay.
- And Greta never brings me snacks.
Can't I just come home instead?
Well, we can't do that
today. But you know what?
I can pick you up before I go to work
and, uh, drop you at Tita Fi's and JD's.
[GASPS] Yay!
Yay! Okay, take your bag and let's go.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
- Vamos, vamos, vamos.
- Have a good day.
LUCA: You, too!
[DOOR CLOSES]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]
[GASPS]
[BREATHING HEAVILY] Que esta pasando?
Que
- What the hell is going on here?
- The IV is just here to hydrate you.
The restraints so we can talk.
Are you crazy, Thony? Let me go.
Is it morning?
Oh, dios mío.
Oh, Thony, you need
to let me go right now.
You crossed the line
when you kidnapped Bianca
and brought her to this
house where my son lives.
What do you want, an
apology? I apologize, okay?
I don't want an apology.
I want you out of my
life once and for all.
I want you out of this
house, out of this town,
and never come back.
And if you don't, I have medical methods
to make sure that you stay controllable.
- Controllable?
- Yeah.
You're dangerous with this family.
Bravo, Thony.
You're so vicious.
I always knew that was in you.
But you need to let me go now.
There are people I need to
to reason with before it's too late.
Let me go.
Your old tricks don't
work on me anymore.
I'll leave you to think about it.
Thony. Thony, wait!
Thony! You have no
idea what you've done.
Thony!
Morning, bro.
Do you want to Postmates something?
- 'Cause we don't
- Holy crap!
Bro! Bro, come look at the
numbers on the latest video.
What?
Is Is that an "M"?
As in million!
We have 4 million views, bro!
And it's making our
other videos climb, too.
- You know what this means?
- We're viral.
It's We're monetizing.
We're officially making
our own money, bro.
Oh, yeah!
What should we do first?
Uh, we should buy a drone.
Or we could get our own place.
I mean, I can't stay at JD's
anymore 'cause it's just
Well, we definitely need
to make more videos.
We gotta keep the money train rolling.
- Okay, okay, so now okay.
- I have just the thing to help get
our creative juices flowing.
What is this?
Mushroom chocolate?
What, as in like as
in drug mushrooms?
[SCOFFS] I thought you were hungry.
No, I I I am. I've just
I've never been high
before, so I don't know what
Oh, dude, come on, we're celebrating.
We have a future ahead of us.
- You can do whatever we want.
- All right, here we go.
Cheers, bro. Cheers.
- Mmm!
- Mmm! That's good.
- [CAR DOOR CLOSES]
- Crap. Hide.
- What? What?
- Hide!
Ugh.
Wow. [CHUCKLES]
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Does it smell like feet in here?
Where should we start?
How about the kitchen?
Look, I've got every cooking tool
we could ever need
back at the apartment.
We don't need 90% of this stuff.
Yeah, but then where will we put it?
We'll donate it.
We won't get rid of
anything precious, I promise.
Yeah, but everything's precious.
Everything?
That makes me very
powerful against mosquitoes.
- What's really going on?
- [WRAPPER CRINKLING]
- Hey. Stop.
- You're having second thoughts?
FIONA: Not about you. It's just
I thought I was really ready
to move on from this place,
but I didn't expect the
owner to put it up for sale
the second we moved out.
I mean, this is this is my home.
And the kids will be devastated.
I wish we could afford
to buy it ourselves.
Just wasn't in the cards.
Yeah, I know, I know.
- Hey.
- [SIGHS]
Why don't we grab some
junk food and some boxes?
Then we can come back
and take all the time we need
to decide what stays and what goes.
- Okay?
- [SNIFFLES] Yeah.
I want Chick-fil-A.
- Chick-fil-A it is.
- Thank you.
Let's go.
[DOOR CLOSES]
[EXHALES]
Wait. This This place is for sale?
Guess we gotta look
for our own place now.
[CELLPHONE RINGS]
Miss Heller. How can I help you?
HUNTER: I have a proposal for you.
You willing to hear me out?
A proposal from the
mighty Hunter Heller.
You failed to shut my mine down,
and now you're looking
for another tactic.
Come on. It's worth
your time, I promise.
But better in person.
I'll bite. Meet me at the
Desert Colosseum in an hour.
I'll see you there.
Have you calmed down?
I'm serious, Thony.
I don't see you scared very often.
Who are these people
you need to reason with?
I made a deal to get out of prison.
I was supposed to meet them last night.
What did you promise them?
I'll tell you what you
let me go right now,
and your work as cartel doctor is done.
You keep your work visa,
keep working at the hospital,
and never hear from
the Sanchez family again.
I'll have you take care
of those murder charges
so this fake marriage
of yours can be annulled.
You don't have the power to do that.
Oh, no, no. Jorge
doesn't have the power.
I do, or I will.
Why would you do that for me?
Because you know I'm capable of it.
And because that's what you really want.
Now, do we have a deal or not?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]
What's going on?
Thony, no, no, no. Wait! Thony!
Let me go first. Thony.
[GASPS]
[GURGLES]
[GASPS]
Oh, my gosh. There
There are people in the house.
They killed Manny. They slit his throat.
It's them. We're too late.
What do you mean, "them"?
The people you made a deal with?
What are you doing?! Let me go!
This is not my problem.
They're here for you.
I I'm not even supposed to be here.
- I'm supposed to be at work.
- Thony, listen to me.
If they kill me, they kill Jorge.
If Jorge, why not his wife?
Why not Luca, Violeta?
These are not people
who leave witnesses.
Let me go. I'll get us out of here.
Okay.
[GRUNTS]
- Watch out! Get down, get down!
- [GUNSHOT, GLASS SHATTERS]
[GUNFIRE]
[MAN GRUNTS]
Come on.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]
Come on.
- [GUNSHOT]
- [GRUNTS]
Okay, we need to get to the closet
in the main bedroom.
There's a safe room.
Okay. Let's go.
[GUNSHOTS]
[GRUNTS]
[GUNSHOT, GLASS SHATTERING]
- [GUNSHOT]
- [GRUNTS]
[GUNSHOTS]
- Go!
- [GUNFIRE]
[GASPS]
[GUNFIRE CONTINUES]
MAN: Go, go! Check the other room.
Go on. Check that room.
What's happening?
Aah!
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
You made it.
What can I do for you, Ms
Mr. Heller?
I know you were expecting my daughter.
Apologies for the cloak
and dagger, Mr. Sanchez,
but I know how this works.
If you knew it was me coming,
you might have had all your, uh,
compadres with their guns around.
I wanted a simple chat.
Call me Sam.
All right, Sam, to what
do I owe the honor?
Well, it's like Hunter told you.
We got a proposition for you.
You know, I underestimated you.
You stepped out of
your world and into mine,
and you haven't let a
damn thing stop you.
I appreciate that, Sam, but
respectfully, I'm very busy.
Well, I'll get right to it, then.
Cut me in for 50% of your mine.
I'll make you a majority stakeholder
in one of my five-star casino resorts.
Even if you cut me into
your most profitable casino,
it doesn't come close to, what, 50%
of the estimated materials
of my mine are worth.
- It's true.
- Why would I consider that?
I'll tell you why.
Because you're a tragic figure
of Shakespearean proportions, son.
You're too straight to be
one of your Ivy League peers.
You're too Ivy League
to be a cartel leader.
- I'm doing just fine.
- Are you, Jorge?
Because I think you're
silently dying inside.
Nobody sees you for who you are.
And who am I?
That's what I'm offering
you, is a chance to find out.
It's your shot at legitimacy, Jorge.
By my side, the business
leaders of this community
finally see you as one of their own.
Instead of a rabid street dog.
Just take a look at the offer.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
Take a seat.
Who's falling in line now, hermana?
Why is everything so forgettable?
Am I forgettable? Camila forgot me.
What are you talking about?
You're basically famous now.
Yeah, but I never showed my face.
I could be anybody or nobody.
What if our next video
was at the Bellagio?
You walk in, you jump on a
high-roller table and dance.
Am I gonna be high forever?
My mom's coming back.
She can't see me like this.
Oh, but I have so
much I need to tell her.
- [CAR DOOR SLAMS]
- Someone's coming.
- Hurry up! Hide!
- Oh!
[DOOR OPENS]
- I thought we were gonna get some food.
- We will.
I just wanted to check the mail first.
OLIVIA: I've never
seen this fridge so empty.
There's always food in here.
JAZ: Yeah, I told you, no one's here.
They're all at my dad's now.
Oh, my God.
Liv.
I got it.
"Dear Ms. Harris, on
behalf of Noble and Parker,
were honored to award you
our prestigious Wilde Lit scholarship
for your outstanding
essay entitled "Scraps."
Yo! You just made money
off of your writing, bro!
- I know.
- Yes!
Oh, you've got to tell your parents.
Your dad is gonna cry again.
He's definitely gonna cry. Yeah.
Um but my mom, she can't know.
- Why not?
- Because then she'd ask to read it
and it'd probably break her heart, so
- Do I get to read it?
- [JAZ AND CHRIS SCREAMING]
What the hell, Chris?!
Oh, God. Oh, God. You're mad.
I'm sorry. Don't be mad.
I can't handle it. I'm sorry, I just
Sorry. He's just high.
Congrats, by the way.
Damn.
No extra phones.
There's no way out.
The power has just been cut.
All we can do is hope
that that door holds.
[BANGING ON DOOR]
Who are these people?
What did you promise them?
The Hellers are old money.
They own everyone
the cops, politicians
which makes them the most
dangerous people you could meet,
even for me.
And Jorge's mining project
stepped on their toes.
So they want the mine.
And me leading Sin Cara.
You betrayed him again.
They were gonna kill me!
And then Jorge, if I didn't.
Well, tell yourself what you want.
All I see is a scared woman
who's always gonna choose
power over her own family.
[BANGING CONTINUES]
[DRILL WHIRRING]
[MEN SHOUTING, BANGING CONTINUES]
You are the reason
everything has gone wrong.
I should have killed
you instead of Nadia.
And I should have let you die instead of
taking that bullet out of you.
You're squatting in this house
and getting high on a Tuesday?
What's going on with you?
What about you? You
won money on an essay
that you're ashamed to show us?
I'm not ashamed. It's just
there are some things in it
that would hurt mom's feelings.
Yours, too.
Okay, but is it your truth?
Okay, then to hell
with our feelings then.
- Jaz, I don't want you to be like mom
- Ugh!
who puts everybody
else's needs before her own.
Okay? Hey, before you know it,
you'll be living with
someone that you like
and are in love with
and sad about losing your house
because it's for sale and
we can never come back
because everything ends.
This place is for sale.
This house for sale?
Like, we're not ever
I was happy when we moved in with Dad,
but I guess I always thought
that we'd come back here.
- [CAR DOORS SLAMMING]
- Oh, God. They're back.
- Everyone hide!
- Oh!
[CHRIS GRUNTING]
Ugh.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- JD: I have a new plan.
Let's skip the kitchen for now
and start in the storage closets.
Doesn't hurt as bad to
get rid of old towels, right?
Mm.
Actually, um, I was thinking
do you mind if I get started alone?
It's nothing personal. I just
I wanted to say goodbye
to this place, you know?
And then then I'll be ready.
I I promise. I promise.
- All right. I understand.
- Okay.
- I'll be back later.
- Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Hey.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
[THUMP]
[MUTTERING]
- Mom!
- Aah!
It's us.
Aah! Aah!
What the heck are you guys doing here?
- I don't want to move out of here either.
- Oh! My God.
- What's wrong with this one?
- He's high.
She won a scholarship for an essay
she doesn't want you to read.
Okay. Um, uh, Olivia, Ted,
would you mind giving us
some time alone, please?
We need to have a family talk.
Of course. [CHUCKLES]
Sorry about the
mushrooms, Ms. De La Rosa.
Please don't tell my mom.
Mushrooms?
- Mushrooms?!
- I'm sorry.
[STUTTERS] Sit down.
[DRILL WHIRRING]
Oh, God. Is this door gonna hold?
How the hell should I know?
[DRILLING STOPS, MAN GROANS]
[BANG ON DOOR]
[DRILLING RESUMES]
This is your chance to kill me, Ramona.
Make it look like they did.
Trust me, I thought about it.
Why don't you?
I never wanted to kill you, Thony.
Why would I kill my greatest project?
I wanted to create you.
You're crazy.
Oh, please.
You were ready to inject me with
your medical methods to get your way.
That was so me.
[MEN TALKING, BANGING ON DOOR]
So, your lawyer eyes
find any problems in there?
Nope. Looks like a real offer.
Legit legally speaking.
Well?
What's the catch?
You making me this offer
doesn't make sense to me.
You want something else.
There's no catch, son.
I've made my desires clear.
I want a piece of that mine,
and I don't see why we
can't both benefit from it.
You know, there was a
time when all I wanted was
to be in business with people like you.
And you're right the goal
is to get out of the cartel.
But I must be doing something right
to elicit an offer like this
this from the most
powerful man in Vegas.
I want to continue on with my family.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
I respect that.
Ah.
- [ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
- I was hoping we might be friends, Jorge.
I'm very sorry.
We won't be.
[CELLPHONE BUZZES]
Go.
[BEEPING]
[EXPLOSION]
[BOTH GASPING]
They didn't open.
Still shut.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
I'm not dying here because of you.
Do it. This is your chance.
You know how many problems that'd solve?
Huh? Killing you.
Look at what you've done.
This is as much your fault as mine.
You know why I'm never
gonna be like you, Ramona?
Because family means something to me.
- Careful, Thony.
- But for you, it's cartel, right?
The hell with Jorge.
The hell with Arman.
All you care about is your power.
You smug brat.
You are here because
you wanted power, too.
No one asked you to
become cartel doctor.
You demanded it.
You asked Jorge to marry you.
You could have walked away.
Instead, you reap the
rewards of what I built.
You're poison. I want you gone.
[LAUGHS] Well, you're
gonna have to do it yourself
because I'm never going anywhere.
You'll dig your own grave soon enough.
[MOUTH FULL] Feels like
I'm coming back to Earth.
That was scary for a minute there.
I hope you learned your lesson.
I told you drugs aren't worth it.
I think I've just felt
a little lost lately,
you know, which is weird, because things
are actually going pretty well for me.
Look, I I'm sorry about the house.
I I don't want to
lose this place either.
Okay, but I just
I just don't know what to do.
And you. You want a writing contest?
It's a scholarship, Mom.
Well, I I'd love to read it.
I would never judge
you, f for anything.
I know you won't, Mom, but I just
I don't really want you to feel judged.
Wait. It it's about me?
It's about me.
About how sometimes I feel like
I inherited your tendency
to put yourself last.
Ah.
It's called "Scraps."
It's about how you take
the scraps for yourself
and you make feasts for everyone else.
Sometimes I catch myself
accepting those scraps for myself, too.
I don't want that for you.
I don't want that for you, either.
All right, all right, all right.
No more scraps for anyone, all right?
Okay, no more.
From now on, we all feast.
I'm glad we're talking about this.
I feel like there's a lot of
things we don't talk about.
Oh, what else don't we talk about?
Mm. I don't know. I mean, how about
the fact that Auntie
T works for the cartel.
And how you don't even
want to move out of this house.
I kind of feel bad, like
I like I pushed you
into moving in with Dad.
No, no. I I wanted to,
and it was the right
thing to do at the time.
For you?
Or for me?
You're right, you're right.
I haven't been honest
with what I really want.
And it it ends today.
In fact, you've helped
me make up my mind
about something I keep
telling myself I can't do.
Stay here. I'll be back.
Okay, Mom.
[DOOR OPENS]
Hey, friendo!
What did you want to
talk about so urgently?
Is the ID I made you not holding up?
No, it's holding up perfectly.
Um, that's actually what I
wanted to talk to you about.
Um, I want to make more,
like, lots more.
Yeah? Let's, um
You need that many identities?
- Are you, like, a spy?
- No.
Shh! They're not all for me, okay?
Do you know how many
undocumented people could
use them to make
money for their families?
We can make them and
then give them out and,
you know, take a small percentage,
something reasonable, like 10, 15%,
because I'm gonna buy my house.
- You're gonna buy your house.
- Mm-hmm.
Like, from yourself?
No, no, I was renting
it, but then I moved out
and now the owner's selling it, and
I mean, I I raised
my kids there and so
I need to keep my house.
Um, I need money and I need lots of it.
Fiona, are you asking me
to show you the money?
Yes, Benny.
Show me the money.
- Show you the mo
- Yeah, J J j
Okay. Okay. But you know this means
you'll have to give me
more driver's licenses, right?
- Like, a lot more.
- [CELLPHONE RINGS]
I yeah, um, hold on.
Oh, wait. It's, uh,
Luca's school. Hello?
WOMAN: Hi. Thony hasn't picked up Luca.
- Wait. She hasn't?
- No. Do you mind grabbing him?
Um, no. Of course. I I'll
be I'll go there right now.
- Great. Thank you.
- Okay. Okay. That's so strange.
Uh, Thony hasn't picked
up Luca from school.
I have to go. But, um
are we good?
We're good.
Do you think they're gone?
Could be a trap.
[SIGHS]
What if Jorge comes with the kids?
I can't let that happen.
We have to go.
You ready?
Now we're working together?
We have no choice.
I don't know what to do with this.
Okay, I got your back.
[SCOFFS]
Okay. Let's go.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]
There was a hidden safe?
What was in the safe?
I've never seen it before.
They weren't here for you.
They came for whatever was in there.
Okay, let's go.
- I think they're gone, yes?
- Yeah.
Okay.
I'll call Jorge.
Ramona, what are you doing?
[GUNSHOTS, MAN GRUNTS]
Aah! Oh! Aah!
Thony! Estás bien?
[GROANS] Oh, my God.
I think it's muscle damage.
- Hold on.
- [PANTING]
- I don't think it hurt internal organ.
- Oh, my God.
Okay, let me see.
Tea helps slow the bleeding.
Hold it. You're a medico.
We cannot go to the hospital.
And I don't think we can
go back to the warehouse.
Okay? The Hellers could be closing in.
- I know. I know.
- What can we do?
I I know where to go.
Okay. Let's go. Can you walk?
- [GROANS]
- Okay.
Let me
[SIGHS]
CHRIS: What are you doing here, bud?
I came to watch cartoons
while I do my homework,
like old times.
[LAUGHS] Good stuff. Well, go on
and I'll join you in a minute, okay?
- Gotta number two first.
- Ew.
Thony never picked him up.
I can't get her on the phone.
I mean, he's been waiting for hours.
She's probably just
swamped at the hospital.
Or maybe she's on one
of her special doctor calls?
Oh, still, I mean, she
would never forget.
I'm worried. I
Maybe I should swing by the hospital.
- Yeah
- [DOOR OPENS]
[THONY GRUNTING]
What are you all doing here?
Hey, hey, buddy. Uh, the TV just broke,
so I'll put your cartoons
on in Mom's bedroom,
and maybe I can show
you some pictures I drew
during school today.
What the hell happened?
[WEAKLY] I got shot.
What?
- Come on.
- CHRIS: Let's just get her to Luca's room.
[THONY GRUNTING]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
Listen, don't go to the compound.
Thony and I were attacked.
I'll explain when you get here.
We're at Thony's house. Okay.
I just need medical attention.
I thought the place was empty.
Well, y you didn't you
didn't think of the hospital?
They They have to
report gunshot wound.
FIONA: Okay. Slowly.
- I got it, I got it.
- Okay. Here, here.
- Okay.
- [GROANS]
Oh, my God. Tell me what happened.
Who Who shot you?
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
I'll explain later. Please
go to the hospital, Fi.
- You get Dr. DuPont.
- No
You tell him it's an emergency.
Dr. DuPont. Got it.
- Go, go, go!
- Chris.
Uh oh, you're shivering. Uh
I'm okay, Chris. It's
It's just the adrenaline
and the loss of of blood.
[SHIVERING]
Did Ramona shoot you?
Do you need me to get her out of here?
What about What about Jaz and Luca?
Should I get them somewhere safe?
She didn't shoot me.
- Go get Luca, okay?
- Okay, yeah.
Luca!
[EXHALES AND SHIVERS]
[INDISTINCT P.A. ANNOUNCEMENT]

- Yes.
- Excuse me. I'm looking for Dr. DuPont.
Um, excuse me. Dr. DuPont?
What can I do for you?
Um, I am Fiona, Thony
De La Rosa's sister.
Dr. De La Rosa didn't show today.
Are you here to deliver her excuse?
I know, I know, okay? She's hurt.
Look, please, I can't explain here.
But she needs you.
- Please.
- Yeah, okay.
- Okay?
- Okay. My shift is just ending anyway.
- Let's go.
- Thank you.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
- There's your mom.
- Hey, my love.
I'm so sorry I didn't pick you up today.
Mama, are you sick?
I, uh I'm not feeling well, but
Tita Fi went to get the doctor.
I can make you some soup.
No, no, no. Come here,
my love, come here.
Come here. Stay with. Me.
You You're all I need.
I love you so, so much.
And I want you to promise me one thing.
What do you want me to promise you?
You'll always be kind to people, okay?
The world needs all
the kindness it can get.
[CHUCKLES] Yes. Oh.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
This is all so messed up.
I don't know how I'm gonna
handle all this without you.
Going away to college. Not dying.
Yeah, I know, but still, I'm
really gonna miss you.
[CHUCKLES] Stop.
You're gonna make me cry.
[DOOR OPENS]
Okay. Here in the back room.
Go! Um, this way.
Here.
Okay, we're here.
Just, um
Luca.
Go with Tita Fi. It's okay, it's okay.
Um, Luca. Luca, come here.
Mommy's gonna feel
better, okay? Come on.
Thank you.
You are becoming a real pain in my ass,
mon chere.
[GROANS SOFTLY]
Oh. Okay.
- Thank you.
- Mm.
What am I looking at?
A tea bag.
Tea bag?
That's clever.
[GROANS] I have IVs
and antibiotics in my room.
Shh, shh, shh. Hey, hey, hey.
Relax. I got this.
I'm a doctor, remember?
But I need some help. Okay?
I'll help you.
You come in.
[SIGHS]
Gloves on. I need a nurse.
Are you okay with blood?
Yes, but I don't think I am
the one she's gonna want.
It's okay.
Fine.
But don't you dare make me
watch another wife of Jorge's die.
The bullet missed your
liver by centimeters.
Trust me, I know.
Ah.
I can handle the sutures on my own.
Thank you for your help.
No problem.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
- [DOOR OPENS]
- Where's Thony?
Um, s she's with the doctor.
No, hermano. She's fine.
The doctor's finishing up. Come with me.
What happened, Ramona?
The Hellers got me out of prison.
Under what condition?
That I remove you from
power and hand them the mine.
And you agreed?
They were gonna kill me and then you.
So, yes, I agreed.
Trust me, hermano, I tried
to think of anything else.
You could have told me.
We would have figured this out together.
Thanks to Thony, I failed.
That's why the Hellers attacked.
They took whatever was in your safe.
There was only one thing in there.
The deed to the mining land.
That damn piece of paper
establishes ownership rights.
Jorge, I don't expect you to trust me.
No, I don't trust you.
Samuel Heller himself offered
me a path out of the cartel today,
and I turned him down 'cause I
wanted to work with my family.
Now Sin Cara can show no weakness.
An attack on my home is an act of war.
We take on the
Hellers as a united front.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
Are you going to tell me what happened?
Mm. It's best if you don't know.
I knew something was wrong
when I met your husband.
Now
I can't ignore a gunshot wound, Thony.
I'm fine, okay?
Thank you for your concern.
But you keep this between us, right?
I could lose my license, DuPont.
You know, my sister she
married a dangerous man.
And I believed her when
she said everything was fine,
even though I saw the warning signs.
I haven't seen or spoken
to her in over 10 years.
His world swallowed her up.
Don't let his world swallow you up.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
My work here is done.
Thank you.
I'll be back at work very soon.
No, you'll be recovering
for over a week.
I don't want to see you
at the hospital until then.
Try and get some rest, huh?
Thank you for your help, Doctor.
If there's ever anything
I can do for you
I'll let you know.
Why are you so upset?
Seriously?
We're supposed to be
clearing this place out today.
Instead, I come back to
find the leader of a cartel
arguing in the laundry
room, and your sister shot.
I know it's been a weird day
Weird?
Fiona, we have to get away from this.
- I know.
- Look, Luca is better now.
He and Thony are not
your responsibility anymore.
What are you saying?
I'm saying it's time
to put some space between us and them.
No.
I will never abandon Thony, JD.
Never, ever.
I I don't think I
can do this anymore.
I've tried to protect
you, to be supportive.
You have been. And you are.
I admire your your love
and your loyalty for Thony.
But, Fi, I can't compete
for your attention anymore.
[SIGHS] I have
enough to give all of you.
But you choose her every time.
I'm taking Jaz home.
We'll go back to splitting custody,
at least until she goes
back to school in the fall.
JD, l let's just
I will always love you.
I'm sorry, Thony.
This should never have happened.
Not your fault.
I promised I'd protect
you, and I failed.
[SIGHS] And Ramona.
What are you gonna do?
In the cartel,
families are off limits
in disputes like this.
The Hellers
they play by their own rules.
Sin Cara won't stand for it.
Things are about to get messier.
I can't have my son around that.
I'm gonna triple
security at the compound.
- You'll feel safe.
- You don't hear me.
This is my home. I want to stay here.
I understand.
We're gonna have to come
up with a reason for ADA Joel.
In the Philippines, when someone dies
we gather for nine days and we pray.
Just tell him I lost a cousin.
Would you put it past him
to get on a plane to
Manila to verify that?
[CHUCKLES]
[COUGHS AND GROANS]
I'll take care of it.
You get better.
I will. Thank you.
Where is Luca and Thony?
Don't they want to play, too?
They'll be home soon, mi amor.

Come on. It's worth
your time, I promise.

I'll bite. Meet me at the

I'll see you there.
Have you calmed down?
I'm serious, Thony.
I don't see you scared very often.
Who are these people
you need to reason with?
I made a deal to get out of prison.
I was supposed to meet them last night.
What did you promise them?
I'll tell you what you
let me go right now,
and your work as cartel doctor is done.
You keep your work visa,
keep working at the hospital,
and never hear from
the Sanchez family again.
I'll have you take care
of those murder charges
so this fake marriage
of yours can be annulled.
You don't have the power to do that.
Oh, no, no. Jorge
doesn't have the power.
I do, or I will.

Because you know I'm capable of it.
And because that's what you really want.

If you knew it was me coming,
you might have had all your, uh,

I wanted a simple chat.
Call me Sam.
All right, Sam, to what
do I owe the honor?
Well, it's like Hunter told you.
We got a proposition for you.
You know, I underestimated you.
You stepped out of
your world and into mine,
and you haven't let a
damn thing stop you.
I appreciate that, Sam, but
respectfully, I'm very busy.
Well, I'll get right to it, then.
Cut me in for 50% of your mine.
I'll make you a majority stakeholder
in one of my five-star casino resorts.
Even if you cut me into
your most profitable casino,
it doesn't come close to, what, 50%
of the estimated materials
of my mine are worth.
- It's true.
- Why would I consider that?
I'll tell you why.
Because you're a tragic figure
of Shakespearean proportions, son.
You're too straight to be
one of your Ivy League peers.
You're too Ivy League
to be a cartel leader.
- I'm doing just fine.
- Are you, Jorge?
Because I think you're
silently dying inside.
Nobody sees you for who you are.
And who am I?
That's what I'm offering
you, is a chance to find out.
It's your shot at legitimacy, Jorge.

leaders of this community

stepped on their toes.
So they want the mine.

[LAUGHS] Well, you're
gonna have to do it yourself
because I'm never going anywhere.
You'll dig your own grave soon enough.
[MOUTH FULL] Feels like
I'm coming back to Earth.
That was scary for a minute there.
I hope you learned your lesson.
I told you drugs aren't worth it.
I think I've just felt
a little lost lately,
you know, which is weird, because things
are actually going pretty well for me.
Look, I I'm sorry about the house.
I I don't want to
lose this place either.
Okay, but I just
I just don't know what to do.
And you. You want a writing contest?
It's a scholarship, Mom.
Well, I I'd love to read it.
I would never judge
you, f for anything.
I know you won't, Mom, but I just
I don't really want you to feel judged.
Wait. It it's about me?
It's about me.
About how sometimes I feel like
I inherited your tendency
to put yourself last.
Ah.
It's called "Scraps."
It's about how you take
the scraps for yourself
and you make feasts for everyone else.
Sometimes I catch myself
accepting those scraps for myself, too.
I don't want that for you.
I don't want that for you, either.
All right, all right, all right.
No more scraps for anyone, all right?
Okay, no more.
From now on, we all feast.
I'm glad we're talking about this.
I feel like there's a lot of
things we don't talk about.
Oh, what else don't we talk about?
Mm. I don't know. I mean, how about
the fact that Auntie
T works for the cartel.
And how you don't even
want to move out of this house.
I kind of feel bad, like
I like I pushed you
into moving in with Dad.
No, no. I I wanted to,
and it was the right
thing to do at the time.
For you?
Or for me?
You're right, you're right.
I haven't been honest
with what I really want.
And it it ends today.
In fact, you've helped
me make up my mind
about something I keep
telling myself I can't do.
Stay here. I'll be back.
Okay, Mom.
[DOOR OPENS]
Hey, friendo!
What did you want to
talk about so urgently?
Is the ID I made you not holding up?
No, it's holding up perfectly.
Um, that's actually what I
wanted to talk to you about.
Um, I want to make more,
like, lots more.
Yeah? Let's, um
You need that many identities?
- Are you, like, a spy?
- No.
Shh! They're not all for me, okay?
Do you know how many
undocumented people could
use them to make
money for their families?
We can make them and
then give them out and,
you know, take a small percentage,
something reasonable, like 10, 15%,
because I'm gonna buy my house.
- You're gonna buy your house.
- Mm-hmm.
Like, from yourself?
No, no, I was renting
it, but then I moved out
and now the owner's selling it, and
I mean, I I raised
my kids there and so
I need to keep my house.
Um, I need money and I need lots of it.
Fiona, are you asking me
to show you the money?
Yes, Benny.
Show me the money.
- Show you the mo
- Yeah, J J j
Okay. Okay. But you know this means
you'll have to give me
more driver's licenses, right?
- Like, a lot more.
- [CELLPHONE RINGS]
I yeah, um, hold on.
Oh, wait. It's, uh,
Luca's school. Hello?
WOMAN: Hi. Thony hasn't picked up Luca.
- Wait. She hasn't?
- No. Do you mind grabbing him?
Um, no. Of course. I I'll
be I'll go there right now.
- Great. Thank you.
- Okay. Okay. That's so strange.
Uh, Thony hasn't picked
up Luca from school.
I have to go. But, um
are we good?
We're good.
Do you think they're gone?
Could be a trap.
[SIGHS]
What if Jorge comes with the kids?
I can't let that happen.
We have to go.
You ready?
Now we're working together?
We have no choice.
I don't know what to do with this.
Okay, I got your back.
[SCOFFS]
Okay. Let's go.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]
There was a hidden safe?
What was in the safe?
I've never seen it before.
They weren't here for you.
They came for whatever was in there.
Okay, let's go.
- I think they're gone, yes?
- Yeah.
Okay.
I'll call Jorge.
Ramona, what are you doing?
[GUNSHOTS, MAN GRUNTS]
Aah! Oh! Aah!
Thony! Estás bien?
[GROANS] Oh, my God.
I think it's muscle damage.
- Hold on.
- [PANTING]
- I don't think it hurt internal organ.
- Oh, my God.
Okay, let me see.
Tea helps slow the bleeding.
Hold it. You're a medico.
We cannot go to the hospital.
And I don't think we can
go back to the warehouse.
Okay? The Hellers could be closing in.
- I know. I know.
- What can we do?
I I know where to go.
Okay. Let's go. Can you walk?
- [GROANS]
- Okay.
Let me
[SIGHS]
CHRIS: What are you doing here, bud?
I came to watch cartoons
while I do my homework,
like old times.
[LAUGHS] Good stuff. Well, go on
and I'll join you in a minute, okay?
- Gotta number two first.
- Ew.
Thony never picked him up.
I can't get her on the phone.
I mean, he's been waiting for hours.
She's probably just
swamped at the hospital.
Or maybe she's on one
of her special doctor calls?
Oh, still, I mean, she
would never forget.
I'm worried. I
Maybe I should swing by the hospital.
- Yeah
- [DOOR OPENS]
[THONY GRUNTING]
What are you all doing here?
Hey, hey, buddy. Uh, the TV just broke,
so I'll put your cartoons
on in Mom's bedroom,
and maybe I can show
you some pictures I drew
during school today.
What the hell happened?
[WEAKLY] I got shot.
What?
- Come on.
- CHRIS: Let's just get her to Luca's room.
[THONY GRUNTING]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
Listen, don't go to the compound.
Thony and I were attacked.
I'll explain when you get here.
We're at Thony's house. Okay.
I just need medical attention.
I thought the place was empty.
Well, y you didn't you
didn't think of the hospital?
They They have to
report gunshot wound.
FIONA: Okay. Slowly.
- I got it, I got it.
- Okay. Here, here.
- Okay.
- [GROANS]
Oh, my God. Tell me what happened.
Who Who shot you?
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
I'll explain later. Please
go to the hospital, Fi.
- You get Dr. DuPont.
- No
You tell him it's an emergency.
Dr. DuPont. Got it.
- Go, go, go!
- Chris.
Uh oh, you're shivering. Uh
I'm okay, Chris. It's
It's just the adrenaline
and the loss of of blood.
[SHIVERING]
Did Ramona shoot you?
Do you need me to get her out of here?
What about What about Jaz and Luca?
Should I get them somewhere safe?
She didn't shoot me.
- Go get Luca, okay?
- Okay, yeah.
Luca!
[EXHALES AND SHIVERS]
[INDISTINCT P.A. ANNOUNCEMENT]
Um, e excuse me?
- Yes.
- Excuse me. I'm looking for Dr. DuPont.
Um, excuse me. Dr. DuPont?
What can I do for you?
Um, I am Fiona, Thony
De La Rosa's sister.
Dr. De La Rosa didn't show today.
Are you here to deliver her excuse?
I know, I know, okay? She's hurt.
Look, please, I can't explain here.
But she needs you.
- Please.
- Yeah, okay.
- Okay?
- Okay. My shift is just ending anyway.
- Let's go.
- Thank you.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
- There's your mom.
- Hey, my love.
I'm so sorry I didn't pick you up today.
Mama, are you sick?
I, uh I'm not feeling well, but
Tita Fi went to get the doctor.
I can make you some soup.
No, no, no. Come here,
my love, come here.
Come here. Stay with. Me.
You You're all I need.
I love you so, so much.
And I want you to promise me one thing.
What do you want me to promise you?
You'll always be kind to people, okay?
The world needs all
the kindness it can get.
[CHUCKLES] Yes. Oh.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
This is all so messed up.
I don't know how I'm gonna
handle all this without you.
Going away to college. Not dying.
Yeah, I know, but still, I'm
really gonna miss you.
[CHUCKLES] Stop.
You're gonna make me cry.
[DOOR OPENS]
Okay. Here in the back room.
Go! Um, this way.
Here.
Okay, we're here.
Just, um
Luca.
Go with Tita Fi. It's okay, it's okay.
Um, Luca. Luca, come here.
Mommy's gonna feel
better, okay? Come on.
Thank you.
You are becoming a real pain in my ass,
mon chere.
[GROANS SOFTLY]
Oh. Okay.
- Thank you.
- Mm.
What am I looking at?
A tea bag.
Tea bag?
That's clever.
[GROANS] I have IVs
and antibiotics in my room.
Shh, shh, shh. Hey, hey, hey.
Relax. I got this.
I'm a doctor, remember?
But I need some help. Okay?
I'll help you.
You come in.
[SIGHS]
Gloves on. I need a nurse.
Are you okay with blood?
Yes, but I don't think I am
the one she's gonna want.
It's okay.
Fine.
But don't you dare make me
watch another wife of Jorge's die.
The bullet missed your
liver by centimeters.
Trust me, I know.
Ah.
I can handle the sutures on my own.
Thank you for your help.
No problem.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
- [DOOR OPENS]
- Where's Thony?
Um, s she's with the doctor.
No, hermano. She's fine.
The doctor's finishing up. Come with me.
What happened, Ramona?
The Hellers got me out of prison.
Under what condition?
That I remove you from
power and hand them the mine.
And you agreed?
They were gonna kill me and then you.
So, yes, I agreed.
Trust me, hermano, I tried
to think of anything else.
You could have told me.
We would have figured this out together.
Thanks to Thony, I failed.
That's why the Hellers attacked.
They took whatever was in your safe.
There was only one thing in there.
The deed to the mining land.
That damn piece of paper
establishes ownership rights.
Jorge, I don't expect you to trust me.
No, I don't trust you.
Samuel Heller himself offered
me a path out of the cartel today,
and I turned him down 'cause I
wanted to work with my family.
Now Sin Cara can show no weakness.
An attack on my home is an act of war.
We take on the
Hellers as a united front.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]
Are you going to tell me what happened?
Mm. It's best if you don't know.
I knew something was wrong
when I met your husband.
Now
I can't ignore a gunshot wound, Thony.
I'm fine, okay?
Thank you for your concern.
But you keep this between us, right?
I could lose my license, DuPont.
You know, my sister she
married a dangerous man.
And I believed her when
she said everything was fine,
even though I saw the warning signs.
I haven't seen or spoken
to her in over 10 years.
His world swallowed her up.
Don't let his world swallow you up.
[DOWN-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS]
My work here is done.
Thank you.
I'll be back at work very soon.
No, you'll be recovering
for over a week.
I don't want to see you
at the hospital until then.
Try and get some rest, huh?
Thank you for your help, Doctor.
If there's ever anything
I can do for you
I'll let you know.
Why are you so upset?
Seriously?
We're supposed to be
clearing this place out today.
Instead, I come back to
find the leader of a cartel
arguing in the laundry
room, and your sister shot.
I know it's been a weird day
Weird?
Fiona, we have to get away from this.
- I know.
- Look, Luca is better now.
He and Thony are not
your responsibility anymore.
What are you saying?
I'm saying it's time
to put some space between us and them.
No.
I will never abandon Thony, JD.
Never, ever.
I I don't think I
can do this anymore.
I've tried to protect
you, to be supportive.
You have been. And you are.
I admire your your love
and your loyalty for Thony.
But, Fi, I can't compete
for your attention anymore.
[SIGHS] I have
enough to give all of you.
But you choose her every time.
I'm taking Jaz home.
We'll go back to splitting custody,
at least until she goes
back to school in the fall.
JD, l let's just
I will always love you.
I'm sorry, Thony.
This should never have happened.
Not your fault.
I promised I'd protect
you, and I failed.
[SIGHS] And Ramona.
What are you gonna do?
In the cartel,
families are off limits
in disputes like this.
The Hellers
they play by their own rules.
Sin Cara won't stand for it.
Things are about to get messier.
I can't have my son around that.
I'm gonna triple
security at the compound.
- You'll feel safe.
- You don't hear me.
This is my home. I want to stay here.
I understand.
We're gonna have to come
up with a reason for ADA Joel.
In the Philippines, when someone dies
we gather for nine days and we pray.
Just tell him I lost a cousin.
Would you put it past him
to get on a plane to
Manila to verify that?
[CHUCKLES]
[COUGHS AND GROANS]
I'll take care of it.
You get better.
I will. Thank you.
Where is Luca and Thony?
Don't they want to play, too?
They'll be home soon, mi amor.

another wife of Jorge's die."
W What's so weird about that?
It's an odd choice of words, no?
You think she literally
saw Jorge's wife die?
Didn't she die in an accident?
She did, but this accident
is more suspicious, I think now.
After everything you went through today,

Yeah.
