Season 3, Episode 11

SATURDAY, JULY 11TH, 2015 Sir, you have a call.
Hello? Understood.
Do we have the situation under control? Negative.
We've lost him.
We don't know where he's headed.
Follow the security protocols, and first thing tomorrow morning I want you to give the necessary announcements.
Mr.
President a moment, please.
What happened? El Chapo got away.
Through a tunnel, apparently.
How can that be, Conrado? How can anybody escape from Altiplano? They're already investigating.
I'll keep you posted with any developments.
Be sure that all responsible for this will pay.
This will hit us hard.
What are we going to do about France? It's an official visit, you can't cancel it.
I'll return to Mexico immediately.
I'll handle and coordinate everything.
Find him, Conrado.
Get him back in jail.
You have my word, sir.
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 Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa cartel, has escaped for a second time from a maximum security prison in our country.
Joaquin Guzman Loera, the world's biggest drug dealer, - has escaped - from a maximum security prison.
He's considered one of the most powerful drug lords in the world, and he's escaped prison.
The search operations to re-capture him have strengthened and extended throughout the entire country.
Yesterday NATIONAL SECURITY COMMISSION MEXICO CITY at Federal Social Readaptation Center No.
1, Altiplano, Joaquin Guzman Loera escaped.
Around 8:52 p.
m.
, after noticing his absence via security cameras, the prison staff went to his cell to check on him, and they found the entrance of a tunnel.
El Chapo escaped using a tunnel that opened up inside his shower stall.
It was 550 feet high and 31 inches wide, and more than 4,900 feet long.
The tunnel ends at a property that is located in the Santa Juanita.
In that property there was furniture, as well as equipment and other objects that show there were some workers living there.
A security operative was deployed around Altiplano prison in the state of Mexico, as well as highways in adjacent institutions.
PRESIDENTIAL SUITE PARIS, FRANCE Hello? I've already given out instructions to my government secretary so he can begin a thorough investigation.
He's back in Mexico and soon he'll have answers for us.
This time it will be different, you have my word.
As soon as we catch him, he'll be extradited.
What happened proves there's corruption in the highest ranks, and also, the government's inability to deal with organized crime.
How is it possible that there was a tunnel built inside a maximum security prison without anybody noticing? What kind of internal and external support does El Chapo Guzman count on? - We're screwed.
- This outrageous fact, is a direct humiliation for Esteban Prieto Did Conrado already land? whose approval rate has been the lowest in history, following the disappearance of 43 students in Ayotzinapa, and the scandal regarding his wife's real estate holdings.
ARE YOU IN MEXICO? I JUST LANDED.
WE'LL TALK TONIGHT.
might be impossible to turn around for him.
Nonetheless, even though his administration is going through a serious crisis, the President decided to continue his trip to France.
NATIONAL SECURITY AND INTELLIGENCE DEPARTMENT, MEXICO CITY General, is everything running? Yes, Mr.
Secretary.
All the security protocols have been activated.
There have been search operations around the entire country, but most of all in Culiacan and the Golden Triangle.
Let's monitor all the entrances and exits from La Tuna.
In the next hours, we should be able to pinpoint Guzman's exact location and make the first arrest.
I came as fast as I could.
What do you need? They're coming for me any minute now.
It was part of Joaquin's arrangement.
I didn't tell you before to not get you involved.
Did you come to any arrangements? The best ones.
I need you to handle everything that comes next.
They'll be contacting you soon.
The clock is running, and even though the search has been extended throughout most of the country, there's no news about El Chapo Guzman's location You need to search his main territories.
I want you to find out which government officials answer to him.
We need to get to him before he's caught.
Hurry.
SECURITY CABIN GOLDEN TRIANGLE El Chilo answered your call.
It's so nice to see you, man.
We're standing tall here, Mr.
Joaquin.
CHILO GUAMUCHIL TURF BOSS Me and my people are getting you out of the country.
Not everyone is ready to leave their squares as soon as I call.
If I'm a turf boss it's because of you, sir.
Did Ismael call you? Yeah, he's on his way.
ALTIPLANO PRISON ALMOLOYA DE JUAREZ, MEXICO Where are the guards? How much do they know? They don't know anything about the escape plan.
As we discussed, we only told them that the noise was coming from the construction site on Cutzamala River.
What about the DISE agents? They're in their area.
Nobody was allowed out of the prison.
- Are they still with us? - Yes, sir They knew that as security heads, they'd be the first to be suspected.
Bring them to the yard, but before that, I need them to turn in all the videos.
Also, delete any copies.
All right, Martin, the moment is here.
You'll be in prison for two years, but then you'll get out scot-free.
Your family will be fine, they'll get a generous salary.
I'll take care of them and handle their security.
Of course as long as you don't betray me.
Don't worry, I'll be true to my word.
Conrado.
Mr.
President, we've finished the prison inspection and interrogated the staff.
Guzman Loera didn't need any outside support.
All the information he needed for his escape was given to him by the director himself and the prison staff.
Are you absolutely sure? I have no doubts, sir.
The knowledge that the staff and security heads that handled the surveillance cameras had of the building was enough to help Guzman build that tunnel.
What measures have you taken up until now? I've ordered the arrest of 34 people.
Both staff members and officials.
They'll be at the mercy of the justice system.
Their degrees of complicity will be duly clarified.
Also, I've relieved the prison director of his duties and ordered his immediate arrest.
If his participation in this event is confirmed, it would be a case of corruption, disloyalty and treason to the Mexican people and state.
To the press I say, as long as I'm in charge, there will be no place for impunity.
Everyone responsible for El Chapo's escape will fall.
I've given precise instructions for the surveillance and capture of the people closest to this drug trafficker.
The search for Joaquin Guzman Loera won't stop.
There won't be rest for this criminal.
And we will be able to catch him.
That's my promise to you.
Buddy.
Buddy.
Thank you for taking the risk and coming all the way here.
They're searching for you across the entire country.
When are you leaving? As soon as I finish what I need to do.
Is Damaso on his way? He shouldn't be long.
Joaquin I wasn't able to get in touch with your mother.
Things are complicated.
The government won the game this time, and they've got surveillance on all of us.
But the plan is still in motion.
We've sent someone trustworthy to locate her.
Go after a truck in La Tuna.
Over.
Mrs.
Esperanza.
Who are you? I've come here on Ismael's behalf.
I'll take you to see your son.
Damaso.
Come in.
We don't have time, and I'm not interested in talking about the past.
Before I leave for Colombia, I wanted to get everything in order.
Sinaloa has to be united against enemies like Isidoro.
Everyone has their own territory and can handle those as they see fit.
But this problem between you two has to end, or we'll end up dead and our families with no business to operate.
I'm not willing to lose another son or another friend.
You're fighting over something that only exists in your heads.
What made you think that the power was in dispute? Here, the power is for everyone! We're all part of this organization! And only if we stick together, we'll continue to be what we are.
During my absence, Ismael will administer my territories and will work my routes.
If something were to happen to me, Quino, because he's my son, will be my successor.
But he won't get it all.
Damaso will have a part of my territories for his loyalty.
That distribution will be done by Ismael, and you will respect it.
No more fighting.
Is that clear? Will it take much longer? No, we're almost there.
What are we going to do? Don't worry.
Just follow me.
Confirming.
His mother is here.
Copy that.
Let's close the perimeter.
Hurry up! Anything? We should leave soon.
It's getting late and the road is long.
The army might comb this area any minute now.
No, son.
I can't leave without seeing your grandma.
You can leave and make sure everything is ready to welcome Elba and the girls.
Let's go.
Go pick them up.
As soon as I say goodbye to my mother, I'll leave for the ranch.
- We'll see each other there.
- Done, Joaquin.
Hector.
Take all the precautions I explained.
The government will want to use them as bait.
Take alternate routes.
That's the only way you will be able to shake them off.
Don't worry.
We'll use the roads that only we know about.
If in any moment you feel you're in danger, turn back.
Don't risk my girls for anything in the world.
I promise.
They shouldn't have left at the same time, man.
The less movement seen around here, the better.
That might be, but time is running out for me, and I still have some things to resolve.
As a matter of fact, I need your help in another matter.
Valdovinos is out of the game, but we've got his partner, Garduño.
I need you to call him and tell him I want to talk about the movie project.
What movie? A movie so people won't ever forget me.
He'll know what I'm talking about.
Tell him I want to meet with our contact.
MEXICO CITY Chapo's escape is a catastrophe.
Fucking Esteban.
He brought disgrace not only on himself, but on all of us as well.
Esteban is a burden that we will have to carry, especially you.
This will hit the government hard.
Have you given any thought to resigning? No.
You're far too calm, Conrado.
What are you planning? Someone from the outside helped Guzman to escape.
The support he had inside the prison never would've been enough.
It's all lies.
Someone gave him the plans for that tunnel to be built, and protected him during that entire time.
Who? Someone that's interested in hitting the president's image so hard, it discredits him.
Someone from the party that might be convinced that Esteban's incompetence would lead them to disaster.
A traitor? No, a savior.
Someone that knew he'd be able to handle the crisis and come out of it stronger and as the perfect presidential candidate.
You? Yes.
I gave him the plans.
And now, I'll go after him, - and when I catch him - You'll be a hero.
And Esteban will keep being an incompetent.
But he'll still be the president, so he'll take advantage of this situation to clean up his image.
Berta.
He's not even here.
There's a power void.
A void that you will fill? Brilliant.
It's insane.
Esteban Prieto was ruining us.
We had to do something.
But you have to catch El Chapo and soon, Conrado.
If you don't, - none of this will matter.
- This is insane, it's foolish.
If he doesn't manage to catch him, he'll sink us all.
But if he catches him, we'll be contenders in the race.
- You didn't know anything about this? - No! If I had known, I would've never supported him.
I support you.
And I'll take the risk for you, Conrado.
It's the best bet for us to get back in the game.
Why didn't you tell me about your plan? I couldn't share it with anybody.
I looked like a fool in front of my godfather.
But whatever comes next, it will benefit the three of us.
From now on, you'll tell me all about your brilliant ideas.
You won't make any important choices without consulting with me first.
I will do anything, Conrado.
Even exposing your secret.
I don't care if I ruin my godfather's plans.
I don't care if everything goes to shit.
I won't be the fool because of you, understood? Yes.
Son, what is going to happen now? Nothing's going to happen, Mom.
But I have to go where I won't be found.
Where are you going? I'll go further in, until I reach the coast and travel to Colombia.
They know where to look for me here.
Over there, they won't even know where to start.
But I couldn't leave without first saying goodbye to you.
When will I see you again? I'm not sure.
JOAQUIN'S SAFE HOUSE COSALA, MEXICO The rooms are ready, and the surveillance system is organized.
Make sure there's food for the girls.
My dad will be here any minute.
I need you to investigate anything you're able to find about my wife.
- Anything in particular? - Everything.
I want to be able to know her better than she knows herself.
Understood, sir.
Excuse me.
INTELLIGENCE AND NATIONAL SECURITY DEPARTMENT MEXICO CITY Hello? Mr.
Secretary, we have something on El Chapo that might interest you, but we're going to need some help from the gringos.
There's not much time.
I need you to look for someone for me.
An actress.
Vanessa Espinoza.
I don't think she lives in Mexico, Joaquin.
As far as I know, she lives in the U.
S.
Look for her.
I want her to put together a movie about my life.
I know that you've got a lot of doubts about our intention to extradite Guzman Loera.
I shared this information with you to show you that we have a common objective.
I think the actress is a good lead.
On the contrary, I know him.
I think it's worth a shot.
You can intervene with Vanessa Espinoza in your own territory, and we can do the same here.
We've arrested El Chapo's attorney and we've got surveillance on all his family, but we haven't been able to find anything of value.
If he contacts that actress again, we have to be prepared.
You have my word.
Sir, it's me.
Go ahead, sir, what is it? Joaquin has a task for you.
He wants to take that movie project he started with Valdovinos up again.
- Are you up to speed? - Yes, sir.
We managed to contact the actress.
Vanessa Espinoza.
Tell her Joaquin wants to meet her.
She's a public figure, sir.
It would attract a lot of attention.
If my partner already contacted her, she might be under surveillance.
I think the same thing, but it's no use.
It's a priority for Joaquin to start this.
And he's willing to take the risk.
MEXICO CITY I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I thought you weren't coming.
With everything that's going on, I thought I wouldn't be able to come.
But things are back on track.
We've got a new lead in our pursuit of El Chapo.
Also, Berta is being investigated.
I've grown tired of her threats.
I'm glad.
It seems as if you've got it under control.
Almost.
What I don't have much of, is time.
I also have something to tell you.
I was offered the vice-director position in the NGO, at the Monterrey branch.
You can't leave.
If you leave, it'll be even harder to see each other.
I'm tired, Conrado.
Don't leave.
This is not enough, none of this is enough.
They're killing everything we have.
Don't say that, Sebastian.
Have a little patience.
I know I've said this many times before, but it's the truth.
Things will change.
When? I don't know when, but I know that this, even though it's not much, is better than not having you in my life.
Isn't it the same for you? Not anymore.
I can't.
I'm tired of living in the shadows.
You're never going to stop chasing your political career, and I need to take my life back.
Please don't do this.
I'm sorry.
- How's Joaquin? - He's fine.
Get your things, we're going to see him.
Take it Perez, take it.
Take it.
Take it, Perez.
Ready? Yeah.
Let's go.
Like the mom.
Mom, what about Perez? Where we're going we can't take Perez.
It's too risky, and we'd draw too much attention.
Perez! Perez! Perez is here! I don't want to! Let's go.
We're heading out.
Report back immediately.
Any news? We still haven't seen any suspicious movement.
Did you distribute units where I asked? Yes, sir.
Did you increase the checkpoints? Affirmative, Mr.
Secretary.
Apart from the main roads, we've covered alternate roads that lead towards the entrances and exits in Culiacan.
JOAQUIN'S SAFE RANCH COSALA, SINALOA Any news from Hector? They're on their way.
They're checking the cars.
Here too.
Open your map and follow my instructions.
Look.
Turn around as soon as you can.
Look for the dirt road.
We turned around.
Me too.
How are you doing? I'm on the dirt road.
Keep going straight.
I can't.
Why? There's a police check-point, Hector.
They're going to get us.
Turn back, Elba.
Get back home.
I'll meet you there.
Dad.
Elba and the girls weren't able to get out of Culiacan.
- Are they okay? - Yeah.
They're safe at home now, but they won't be able to make it.
We'll come up with another plan to get them here.
That might take days or weeks, and you have to leave.
I might have to leave, but I won't leave without seeing them first.
LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA, USA TEXT MESSAGE VALDOVINOS Can you give me a moment alone, please? Hello? Miss? My name is Garduño, I'm an attorney who was Valdovinos' partner.
I'm calling on behalf of the boss.
I didn't think you'd be contacting me, after everything that's happened.
My partner contacted you to propose a project.
Well, our client wants to get it back on track.
But how? We'll deal with the logistics.
The important thing is knowing if you're still interested.
My client would like to have a meeting with you, but we don't have much time to do that.
I wouldn't go alone.
No problem, we can coordinate that.
HEADQUARTERS FOR TELEPHONE RESEARCH, DEA UNITED STATES All right, we'll be ready.
GUADALAJARA INTERNATIONAL AIRPOR They're with me.
We're headed over to the plane.
We're on our way.
I'll pick you up at the runway.
My dad will wait for us at the meet point.
Gentlemen, I'll ask that for your own safety, you turn off your cell phones and electronic devices and store them here, please.
They've deactivated their telephones, but we've tracked them.
They're boarding a plane.
Can we track them? As soon as they take flight, Mr.
Secretary.
We've got them.
LONG: 60° EAS LAT: 20° NORTH WILDLIFE RESERVE SINALOA Thank you for your help, professor.
Here's what we agreed on.
The guys will take you back into town.
Thank you, sir.
They must be close to landing.
When they're close to their destination, traffickers tend to lower their planes because they know they can evade radars.
- Can we locate the landing zone? - Yes, sir.
Enlarge the map.
How many officers can go to Cosala at this moment? Have the search and location operation focus across 12 miles around the location.
I want all the forces available.
Chapo's luck has run out.
Nice to meet you.
Welcome, friend.
