El Chapo (2017) s03e03 Episode Script

Season 3, Episode 3

Step on the gas, fucker! Speed up! One man down! Send back-up.
They're on the 26.
Relax.
It's over.
The Americans sent those motherfuckers.
Shall we head to the mountains? No, head to Culiacan.
It's clear.
They wanted to kill us.
Relax, we'll be safe here.
We'll spend the night here.
Take her to one of the other houses tomorrow.
We'll disappear the trucks.
- Another house? - I can't go to ours.
If you're on the DEA's radar, they'll be watching you to get to me.
Everything's gonna be OK, you'll see.
Go to bed so you can rest.
I don't want them to kill you, Joaquin.
I don't want you to be killed or caught.
Hide in the mountains, just like Bravo said.
Deep in the mountains.
You won't be found.
No need to.
I'll solve this.
You trust me? Then don't worry, I'll handle this.
I feel the warmth from my boiling blood I feel the fear, sweat dripping away There's a stillness that nothing transmits I'm a breeze that grows stronger Even when the clouds drift away Even when my skin dries away I'll be back someday To unleash my return I have the dust that protects the road I have the branches of a leafless tree I'm the guardian of the tired night There are silhouettes that come to meet me Even when the clouds drift away Even when my skin dries away I'll be back someday To unleash my return OFFICIAL RESIDENCE MEXICO CITY Your government's image has been affected by your war on drug trafficking.
Mr.
President, arresting El Chapo is the boost you need if you want your party to win the next elections.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY MEXICO CITY The number you dialed is currently off or out of coverage.
We suggest Change that shit's chip.
Put one on we haven't used before.
Sir? We're ready.
- Elba! - Ready, sir.
Bravo will take you to the new house.
When will we see each other again? In a couple of days, when I fix everything.
In the meantime, don't go out on the streets.
If you need anything, ask them to get it for you.
Take care.
Yes? - The navy attacked by DEA's orders? - The DEA and the government.
Things have changed, Joaquin.
Right now, I can't explain.
The army is after you.
There's an operative on the way to Culiacan.
- How do I know you're not lying? - You don't.
You have to trust me.
You have an hour, leave the city.
Call me once you're safe.
Let's go.
Soldiers are on their way.
Tell Bravo, so he can tell the rest to hide.
ROAD TO CULIACAN, MEXICO Your president forgot we have a deal.
You crossed the line with the DEA.
I warned you not to mess with them.
Why did you tell me about the army? What do you get if they don't catch me? I have a deal with the opposing party.
If Esteban Prieto wins the elections, I'll be Secretary of State.
You're back where you began, the PTI.
It's no good for me if this government gets a boost of popularity by capturing you.
You can count with my money and whatever you need to support your candidate.
In exchange, I want my deals respected once he wins.
No arrests, and most importantly no danger of extradition.
What matters now, is you don't get caught.
I'll keep you posted on the army's operatives.
I'll help you out with the federal police as well.
I can't help you out with the navy, though.
They coordinate with the DEA, you know that.
- I have no access to that information.
- Don't worry.
I'll take care of the navy.
I'll need to do some impounds as well.
Some arrests, as usual, for the president and the DEA to think I'm really after you.
Done.
It's convenient for me, as well, that you become Secretary of Government.
It all depends on you not getting caught, Joaquin.
Until the elections, your true enemies are the Americans, and the navy.
Stay safe.
The government and the Americans want my head.
We won't let that put a stop to our growth.
Conrado's on our side, that's an advantage.
The international side was hit with Mayel's arrest.
The DEA is fucking with our shipments.
Our people are handling that, to keep the shipment going.
Damaso, I want you in charge of Navolato and Los Cabos.
With their location, those territories are off the radar and could be useful.
Quino, you'll take care of Villa Juarez.
And you, you're going to the mountains? No, I'll stay in Culiacan.
This is my house.
Nowhere else will I be as safe as here.
My only problem, now, is the navy.
I gotta fix that to get things back to normal.
- Hi.
- Hello.
What's that? A present from my friend, Elizabeth Larrea.
- It's a jewel, right? - It's a sham.
If you want to hang that, do it in the hallway.
Come on, Conrado.
How can we put a Melendez in the hallway? I don't follow painters for their name, but for their taste.
That thing, personally, is a fraud for rich people.
He's been compared with Picasso and Tamayo.
If you don't like it, it's because you don't understand it.
I don't like it because it's a monstrosity.
From now on, we'll be receiving guests.
We need to make a good impression.
That's what a Melendez does.
Good impressions, Berta, are earned with intelligence.
Not by hanging a painting on a wall.
If it was about intelligence, you and I would be presidents by now.
Unfortunately, image is of importance as well.
That's the game, Conrado.
If you wanna reach the top, you gotta know how to play.
If our guests want to see the Melendez, they can see it in the hallway.
Good night.
Good night.
MEXICO CITY RODRIGO VIÃ'AS, GENERAL COORDINATOR OF NAVY OPERATIONS Excuse me, Mr.
Viñas.
The principal needs to talk to you.
- Is it urgent? - It's to see if your son can get onto the swimming team.
It won't take long.
- Let's go.
- Follow me, please.
It's done, sir.
Target's been secured.
Take him to the meeting point.
Let's go.
Rodrigo Viñas.
I apologize for dragging you here like this.
Take his cuffs off.
Would you like anything to drink? No, thank you.
You're doing a great job.
The navy's got me by the balls.
He also had me by the balls before.
He was special forces, in charge of capturing me, and now he's one of my most trusted men.
I like to trust people.
You can get anything you want with force.
But with intelligent men like yourself, I'd rather have things go smooth.
That's why I came here, to talk face to face.
I'm offering you a chance.
I appreciate that.
I'm where I'm at because I know how to take advantage of opportunities.
Very well, Viñas.
Lopez get Rodrigo a beer.
I'm offering you $25,000,000 pesos in exchange for information.
I wanna know about the navy's operations before they're on me.
Agreed? Agreed.
Enjoy your beer.
My men will explain all the details.
When you have information, call that number.
Ask for Fausto.
Use the word "fishermen" there are $10,000,000 there.
You'll get the rest once you start blowing the whistle.
Any questions? As a part of our fight against drug trafficking, once again we have hit the Sinaloa Cartel.
This is just a sample of the huge amount of weapons and drugs seized by the Federal Police in Sonora at dawn.
Questions? Mr.
Secretary, Omar Pardo from El Popular newspaper.
Go on.
How do you explain that the head of the cartel, El Chapo Guzman, is still a fugitive after nine years? He's a powerful drug lord.
That's why these operatives are important.
They weaken his structure and get us closer to capturing him.
You've had key positions in the last two administrations, the same amount of time Guzman Loera has been a fugitive.
Do you take any responsibility before the people? I'm sure the people remember that during these two administrations, the Avendaños, the brothers Bernal Leyda, Vicente Castillo, leader of the Juarez Cartel, - and many others have gone down - Excuse me, but not El Chapo Guzman.
What's your take on the rumors that link you with him? False accusations, of course.
Next question.
Pardon me, you were accused of giving him protection on several signs, Mr.
Secretary.
Accused without proof.
I said it that time, I'll repeat it again.
Those are false accusations.
I have nothing to do with the drug lord known as El Chapo Guzman.
Excuse me.
Make sure that journalist doesn't cover my press conferences again.
Yes, sir.
EL POPULAR NEWSPAPER THE SECRETARY STATES THAT HE WANTS TO END DELINQUENCY WHEN HE COVERS UP JOAQUIN GUZMAN LOERA (EL CHAPO) ISMAEL ZAMBRANO.
IS THIS THE WAR AGAINST CRIME? CONRADO SOL, IF YOU WANT TO PUT AN END TO THE INSECURITY, DON'T PROTECT EL CHAPO.
CHAPO YOU WON'T DEFEAT US, EVEN WITH THE MILITARY AND THE FEDS ON YOUR SIDE.
INTIMATE ENEMIES? EL CHAPO GUZMAN AND CONRADO SOL RUMORS OF A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP Hello, Conrado.
Nice to meet you.
The ex-president told me I can trust you.
You're not the first person he sends me.
You'll never know who they are.
They'll never know about your visits.
OPEN No! I'll call you.
How's your married life treating you? It's bearable.
- Will you stick with it? - If I could deal with you - I can deal with anyone.
- Well, it wasn't for that long.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have divorced.
You're the one who couldn't deal with it anymore.
You couldn't bear my political ambitions.
Not by sacrificing family.
Why are we talking about this, Miguel? I don't know, the habit, maybe.
I understand we're not getting back together.
You need sex, just like everybody else.
I'm the one you chose.
At first, I thought it would be a bad idea to choose you.
My godfather was right, though.
If I have to trust someone with my infidelities, it's better to be with someone who's always been loyal.
GOVERNING OFFICE HIDALGO, MEXICO INTIMATE ENEMIES? EL CHAPO GUZMAN, CONRADO SOL, RUMORS OF A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP THE SECRETARY COVERS UP JOAQUIN LOERA, ISMAEL ZAMBRANO IN EXCHANGE FOR MONEY IS THIS THE WAR AGAINST CRIME? - Yes? - Esteban? This is Olivares.
I'm sorry for calling this early.
No, it's not that early.
Go ahead.
You have time for a meeting? I need to talk about your possible Secretary of Government.
INTIMATE ENEMIES? FAUSTO'S HARDWARE STORE MEXICO CITY - Yes? - I need to talk to Fausto.
It's about the fishermen.
This is Fausto, what about the fishermen? They're gonna fish in Navolato.
You have around an hour.
Got it.
Fishermen on their way.
Sir Viñas said there will be an operation in Navolato.
Go there.
I want you to verify if the source is trustworthy or not.
Anchor.
Sir Tell Fausto to give the coordinator his dough.
- Confirmed, you'll get the package.
- Thank you, Fausto.
We'll be in touch.
Thanks for your cooperation.
On your behalf and that of Sol, the best thing to do is to establish a commission to investigate in the senate.
You think that's necessary? This is a minor newspaper, its print run is limited.
The opposition will do whatever it takes to take you down, Esteban.
It will be a feast for them that your man in the government is linked with criminals.
There couldn't be any doubts about I have a deal with the former president.
He'll understand that we don't need the slightest shade of corruption linked with me.
Right.
You got nothing to lose.
If he comes out clean, it would be better for all of us.
If they find anything, cut ties so he can't drag you down with him.
And you take his position.
Please, Olivares.
It's completely clear you're not only interested in protecting my image.
I consider myself an option only if Conrado is a nuance for the campaign, of course.
Proceed with the investigation.
I'll talk with Alvaro, Hidalgo's representative, to present the motion.
What are you doing here? I told you I was gonna take care of it, didn't I? Aren't they after you? Everything's under control.
Good afternoon.
- Hi.
- Can it be fixed? Gimme a second.
Freeze.
What is it? From now on, you're a DEA collaborator, Fausto.
If you refuse, you'll be arrested and extradited right away.
We received the request from Hidalgo's colleague CONGRESS MEXICO CITY to form an investigative commission.
Go ahead, Mr.
Congressman.
This article once again opens up the questions surrounding Conrado Sol, Secretary of Public Safety, which began a few years back.
PUBLIC SAFETY Berta Check the congress channel, urgent.
It's true that there is no proof against him.
But due to the importance of his position, and the gravity of the rumors, we request an investigative commission be established.
Impartial and that digs deep into the rumors that link him with Joaquin El Chapo Guzman.
I won't deny I'm surprised, Esteban.
We're looking to give the PTI a new image, and nothing can damage it.
Of course.
I understand it's all for the benefit of the party.
Besides that, I have no doubts Conrado will come out clean.
I agree, I have no doubts either.
Believe me, once those rumors are completely cleared, it will be my pleasure to have him as Secretary of State.
So it will be.
Greetings, Esteban.
Thanks for calling.
We'll continue voting, to see if the investigative commission is approved.
Your turn, congresswoman.
We'll understand, by obvious reasons, if you choose to abstain.
Not at all, Mr.
President.
I trust my husband.
I vote for the investigation to be approved.
Conrado, come with Berta tonight.
We have to solve the situation.
LAS PALMAS RESTAURAN Don't do anything stupid.
You don't know how badly I wanted to leave the house.
You weren't even there for long.
The time I spent there was enough.
I felt like a bird in a cage.
Most of all, I miss you.
I don't like it when you're gone.
Well, you won't miss me anymore.
I'm here and I'm here to stay.
What is it? Fishermen will get to Culiacan in 40 minutes.
The high tide is coming from the south.
Calzada De Las Americas Avenue is free towards the north.
Got it.
The vehicles.
Sir - What is it, Bravo? - The navy is on its way.
What is it? We'll have to eat dessert later, sweetheart.
Let's go.
I gotta hide for a couple of hours.
I'll see you later.
- Will you be OK? - Don't worry.
This means things are working out.
Go! Fuck.
He told me they were coming from the south.
It's a trap.
Viñas double-crossed us.
Good evening.
Flee, sir.
No.
They made sure we came this way.
They're ready to jump on us.
We need a distraction.
Listen up.
We need back-up.
We're on the way.
Move! Move! Move! Go now! Move slowly, don't attract their attention.
We gotta check the vehicle.
Get out of the car, now.
Lower the windows.
Lower the windows, now! Go now! That asshole Olivares wants the secretary position for himself.
No doubt about it.
For now, he got what he wanted.
The investigative commission has been approved, there's nothing we can do.
It was brilliant that you voted in favor.
Gives an idea that Conrado has nothing to hide.
They won't find anything.
I've covered my tracks well.
It's still dangerous, though.
If you look closely, you'll find cracks.
We gotta make sure the investigation is favorable.
If not, Esteban will have all the means to kick you out of the game.
Then, you can forget about being Secretary of State, and a future presidency.
Ma'am? Come in.
Has Joaquin arrived? No ma'am, he wanted to tell you he's not gonna make it.
He's gotta hide, he's not coming to Culiacan for a while.
Enter through there.
Only the ones who lived in these mountains know where the access is.
We're gonna be safe here until we can go back to Culiacan.
