SEAL Team (2017) s02e08 Episode Script
Parallax
1 - Previously on "SEAL Team" - Andres Doza, the head of the most lethal cartel in Mexico.
They executed an American DEA agent.
CISEN recovered the Mercedes.
GPS tells the story.
Multiple visits to local businesses.
RITA: One business stands out: the Reyes Talent Agency, owned by a very successful businesswoman, Carla Reyes.
MANDY: There will be a Doza connection, we just have to figure it out.
- Who the hell are you? - Right now, I'm your executioner.
Why not make me a friend? "Muerta.
" Marked for death.
My family.
Now do you understand? RAY: You blame yourself for the position he's in.
- You're latching on.
- Latching onto what, Ray? A family that needs to be kept together 'cause yours was torn apart.
I don't think that I can be with you anymore.
[CRYING.]
: I'm sorry.
- Cheers, buddy.
Here we go.
- Send that down.
I'll meet you outside.
He's getting the drinks.
- Yeah.
All right.
- See you! Oh, man.
Here we go.
Feet up.
The target was Gonzalez.
Are you questioning me right now, Mandy? We don't stand a chance of getting Doza if your head is back home.
[ROMANTIC SPANISH MUSIC PLAYING.]
Happy anniversary, Andres Doza.
Maria, you shouldn't have.
And my present? As soon as I get back.
I promise.
You forgot to remind me it's my anniversary.
I have no present.
LAZO: What, your girlfriend? My wife, fool.
Just give her the gift of cash.
Cash only works with girlfriends, Lazo.
Not wives.
One day, you'll learn that.
I entrusted you with the plaza, Javier, and you repay me by stealing from me? No, Señor Doza, this is all a misunderstanding.
Look at the position you have put your employees in.
What will you tell his family? [WOMAN SOBBING.]
You think I don't track how much product comes through the plaza? Please, Andres, it's my wife.
My wife handles all of the accounting.
Well, that's fortunate because she's here.
She can clear the matter.
[WOMAN SOBBING.]
DOZA: Gabriela is it true what Javier is saying? You're responsible for the theft of my money? No.
What are you talking about? Convincing.
I believe her.
No, I did not say that Gabriela was responsible.
I said she handles all the [SCREAMS.]
: Help me! Oh, my God! [SCREAMING, SOBBING.]
Please accept my sincere apologies for this ugliness.
But I cannot go easy on you and your employees because you're family.
[GUNSHOT.]
Please, please, please don't kill me I am not a monster.
[CRYING.]
DOZA: Do you really think I would kill my wife's sister? Maria would never forgive me.
So I want you to go home, never speak of this.
Tell Maria that Javier, pig that he is, left you for another woman.
Okay, Andres.
SÃ.
Thank you.
Thank you.
[GABRIELA MOANING.]
Shh Your sister would like these.
Yes, Maria would.
Take them.
Gracias, Gabriela.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
How are your sons? - They're bored.
- Yeah.
- They miss their friends.
- Mm-hmm.
They don't understand why they're here.
Danger isn't real for them.
It's our job to protect them.
- Isn't that right, Lopez? - You sound like a good father.
Jury's still out on that one.
I'm trying to be a good father.
Day to day, right? That's all you can do.
Day to day.
You know, what you did for me last night, coming after me, that took courage.
I thought I was doing what was best for my family.
I wasn't.
Thank you.
Getting Doza is what's best for your family right now.
We do that, and we get your boys back to their friends, okay? God willing.
Nobody's gotten close to Doza yet.
Let's hope snagging Carla Reyes leads us somewhere.
'Cause she's all we got right now.
Right? - You got anything yet? - Not yet, but we will.
Getting tired of waiting on you.
Phone records, bank records, travel records.
What are we missing? Carla Reyes's bra size.
And the date of her First Communion.
Otherwise we know everything about her.
All we have to show for it are the names of a few mid-level cartel figures.
Dante Vega, a money man for Doza, visited Carla Reyes several times; we know this.
There's got to be something more, some deeper connection that Carla has to Doza.
Unless there isn't.
We've been through everything.
Twice.
No.
She's hiding something.
Let's go through it again.
Hiyah! Wake up, Sleeping Beauty.
[GROANS.]
Rise and shine.
- Nope.
- You see, I think I found a cure for this emotional pain that ails you.
What the hell are you talking about, man? Oh, you fighting your way through the battlefield of despair.
Look at that.
What's a battlefield of despair? What are you talking about? [GRUNTS.]
Right.
See, you need a plan.
How 'bout I stop drinking bad tequila? - Is that a good plan? - Not enough of one.
You see, a plan is waging war and taking out the enemy.
And tequila, my friend, is not your enemy.
Heartbreak is.
- You understand? - Oh, all right, Sonny.
You know what, I would honestly rather right now you wrapped your little skivvies around my face than hear what you're about to tell me.
Okay.
One might ask how you wage war against heartbreak.
I will tell you.
Step one: you need to minimize it in all forms.
Which means you need to block Stella on all social media platforms.
No late-night perusing of her pictures, and no checking on her updated relationship status.
- Is this seriously happening right now? - Uh-huh.
Step two: you need to create a heartbreak-free environment.
That means purging your living space - of all gifts.
- Yeah.
Anything associated with the-the person of-of your affection.
Hold on a second.
Did you just say "person of affection"? Yes.
Where did you, where did you get this? - Uh, well [CHUCKLES.]
- Sonny? Did you google how to get over a breakup? No.
My Okay, look, I got it from Cosmo.
[LAUGHING.]
You boys having fun? We're healing, Ray.
- What, from last night? - Yes.
What the hell is it I hear about you two going outside the wire? - Who told you that? - RAY: The moron police.
Got you dead to rights.
You two witness some dude get schwacked at a strip club, and you decide to hit the town? Okay, look, Mr.
Buzzkill, it was my idea to take the young buck out.
No, come on, Sonny.
It was my idea to go to the club.
What do you think Jason would say if he found out? What could he say? Jason went outside the wire, too.
Yeah, to help Lopez.
Him and his entire family has been marked for death.
Ray, you know the White House sent us down here because Andres Doza murdered an American DEA agent? Graham Kowit.
Remember him? Yeah, well, he's the reason we're here.
Not the, uh, not the Lopez family.
It is not your place to question number one, Spenser.
Or me.
Now, you go outside the wire again, I'll drop the hammer.
We can go through this ten more times.
It won't matter.
Reyes is a dead end.
Maybe not.
I-I need to see the bank statements for the past two years.
Thanks.
- Yep.
- What is it? Carla's been holding out on us.
[LAUGHS SOFTLY.]
REYES: I gave you everything.
RITA: No, you gave us Doza's middle management.
You asked for the names of my clients.
MANDY: All of your clients, Carla.
Not just the ones who don't terrify you.
You keep meticulous records.
Too meticulous.
There's a lot of outgoing payments to some of your girls.
No corresponding incoming payments from a client.
Somebody's getting a freebie.
- Must be someone special.
- Someone scary.
MANDY: Someone you know will kill you if you talk.
You're gonna have to talk.
He will kill me.
Then helping us find Doza is your best chance for survival.
Help us, Carla, and you can go back to your life.
The one you had before the cartel.
[EXHALES.]
Luis Castillo.
He's the client I've been comping.
Luis Castillo? Who is Luis Castillo? He's Doza's most trusted lieutenant.
He's his best friend.
They call him El Lazo.
This is the break we need.
We find Lazo, we find Doza.
LOPEZ: Colonel, I need to be a part of it.
My mind's good.
I got it set straight.
Let the man work.
Let him work.
MANDY: Okay.
One of the very few pictures we have of Doza.
Beside him is Luis Castillo, aka El Lazo.
He is Doza's second in command and his oldest friend.
El Lazo? "The Noose.
" All right, look, is there a link between Lazo and Carla Reyes? MANDY: Lazo uses Reyes's escort services.
Every time Lazo comes to Mexico City, he calls her, for a woman.
How often is he in town? Last trip was eight weeks ago.
So we just wait around till he gets horny.
JASON: No.
This is what we do.
We lure him to Mexico City.
What's your proposal on that? This guy's Doza's number two, right? What's the number two guy do? He takes care of all of the major problems.
What do we do? Create a major problem.
Hit one of his assets.
[SPEAKING SPANISH.]
What? This.
This is a pottery factory.
It's right outside the city.
This is a front for Doza's biggest meth lab.
We take it out.
- Perfect.
- Doza's a businessman.
Right? I'm sure he's got losses built in to the whole system.
So we just take out this one lab, it might not even elicit a response.
Unless the lab was taken out by a rival cartel.
Doza would never ignore that.
Mm-hmm.
You want to start our own cartel? Damn straight.
Los Badasses.
That's got a nice ring to it, doesn't it? [LAUGHS.]
CLAY: All right, so we-we hit the lab, right? We hope that Lazo takes the bait, comes back to town? We hit it hard, man.
Let's go hunting, boys.
Yeah, we need to blend in for this op.
Wear civilian clothes, cover our faces, minimal comms, ND vehicles and, most importantly, the attack itself needs to look like a cartel hit.
- Rough and messy, right? - Rough and messy.
We can do a simultaneous breach on two sides of the building.
Clear towards the middle.
Set charges, break out.
JASON: How many hostiles you expect we're gonna encounter here? LOPEZ: Doza will have armed men there.
Understand: many who work in the factory don't want to be there.
They made bad choices, they're not bad people.
All right, we're not out to hurt nobody, right? So we let them go, hope they spread the word back to Doza.
SONNY: Rules of engagement? ERIC: If they're armed, we engage.
Needs to be fast.
In, out.
[GRUNTS.]
JASON: Havoc, this is 1.
I pass Petty.
ERIC: Bravo 1, this is Havoc.
I copy Petty.
JASON: Bravo 2, this is 1, stand by.
Bravo 1, this is Bravo 2.
In position.
Execute, execute, execute.
[MEN SPEAKING SPANISH.]
[WOMAN SCREAMS.]
[SCREAMS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Have your men set the charges, then meet us back at the exfil point.
Havoc, this is 1.
We're passing Earnhardt.
ERIC: Good copy, Bravo 1.
Passing Earnhardt.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
JASON: Hey.
Nice work out there.
Once the bullets started flying, all my problems went away.
Yeah, I know that drill.
I know it all so well.
It's the calm in the chaos.
But now we're back.
And so are your problems.
My my sons, they can't live like this forever.
They did nothing wrong.
You got to hang in there.
Like I told you, we're gonna get this done.
We're not leaving till we get Doza, and your family is safe.
[WOMAN SPEAKING SPANISH OVER TV.]
Here it is right here.
Uh ALL: Oh! Another slap, another drink.
Ah, man, he is getting beat up.
Hey, you guys mind turning this down a little bit? Some of us have better things to do than listen to this crap.
Ain't that right, Spenser? SONNY: What are you talking about, Ray Perry? This is the best damn show on TV.
Little señorita right there, well, she could slap me any day of the week, 'cause she is half-crazy, half-fire.
That is the perfect Sonny Quinn mix right there.
Mm, I'm just a little surprised that her name doesn't end in a Y, Sonny.
- Meaning? - Uh, Tammy, Brandy, Tiffany, Charity.
See a theme here? [SONNY MOCK-LAUGHING.]
Well, let's talk about your track record there, Davis.
- Let's not.
Let's not.
- Okay Todd.
Okay.
- Then there was Keith.
- Stop.
And then the winner, winner, chicken dinner: - Dakota.
- Okay.
[SONNY LAUGHS.]
Here it goes again.
Here she comes.
ALL: Oh! SONNY: Oh, he's got welts.
Look at him.
Look at him.
He needs some ice.
CISEN's picked up a lot of chatter about our hit on the lab.
Specifically, speculation that the Merida Cartel was behind it.
- That's good.
- You realize that even if El Lazo comes to town, there's no guarantee he'll call Carla for a woman? - He will.
- It's been three days and nada.
He'll call.
We're all creatures of habit.
Oof, this is the part I hate.
The waiting.
- You picked the wrong job.
- [CHUCKLES.]
What got you into this work? A CIA recruiter approached me in college.
I had no idea what the job entailed, but how about you? I'm from a small town.
An only child, so my father was my hero.
- Mm.
- He was a kind man.
Always happy, until the cartels came.
From then on, he lived in fear that they would force him to grow drugs.
They never did, but my father's his fear and his, his worry replaced his, his faith and his joy.
And I grew up wanting no one else to know that fear.
What about your family? Oh, um, I never knew my father and, uh, my mother was a criminal, for lack of a better word.
Actually, that's the perfect word for it.
She was a scammer, a con artist.
Credit card fraud, insurance fraud, identity theft.
She was always working one angle or another, one man or another; one of them was my dad.
I don't think I've ever heard her tell the truth about anything, not even the weather.
That's no way to grow up.
[CHUCKLES.]
Nope.
Hi, Em, it's Dad.
I'm calling you again 'cause according to the schedule that we have, I was supposed to talk to you today.
So just do me a favor, can you call me back and tell me that you're getting these messages.
I'd like to hear from my kids, okay? I love you.
Bye.
Hey.
All good at home? Yeah, all is great at home, just, you know, the kids, they're MIA, Davis.
I can't They're probably just out having fun.
Well, if they're out having fun, it'd be nice if they would call to confirm that.
Talk to me, leave me a voice mail.
I've called, like, 19,000 times.
They're not picking up.
I don't know.
Maybe I can get some sleep when they do.
I think that every kid feels a certain responsibility to drive his parents crazy.
Well, then I guess my kids are overachievers, Davis.
Hey, how're you doing? How're you holding up? How am I doing? How am I doing? I don't know how to answer that.
I really don't.
Good.
Okay.
I guess it depends on the time of day, right? Got to get Lazo here.
I got to get him here.
I got to lure this guy here 'cause I got to do something.
Man, I'm - I get it.
- Yeah.
Hey.
What you did for Lopez, that was It's good to give men hope.
[CHUCKLES.]
Hope.
Not a lot of hope these days here.
You've seen the stats, right? You read about them? 30,000 people were killed last year in this war in Mexico.
That is 80 families a day torn apart.
I know.
I get it.
It's hard to wrap your head around.
Yeah.
[SIGHS.]
Yeah, it is.
But, hey, thank God for the tequila, right? [CLEARS THROAT.]
Bag's all yours.
I'm not here for that.
I'm here to find out why you've been hitting that bag like you've been watching Rocky on a loop.
Nothing's wrong.
The hell it's not.
Something is wrong.
Clay Spenser I know doesn't question his leaders or disobey team rules.
You're off.
And I'm not going away till you tell me why.
It's, uh Stella.
She left me.
I'm sorry to hear that, brother.
I thought everything was solid between you two.
Yeah, it was.
Yeah, and then, uh, then it wasn't.
Adam's death really hit her hard.
Then me taking a round terrified her.
The thing is, I-I I thought that I could have it all.
I did.
Thought I could have the team, the family, you know, as long as I just, as long as I just tried, as long as I did it better than my old, my old man, better than Jason.
I was wrong, Ray.
Reality is, it's a choice.
It's one or the other.
Me and Naima make it work.
Yeah, well, you two are a miracle.
Miracles don't happen for most people.
Look, just because this isn't the life for Stella does not mean you cannot have them both.
Just maybe not with her.
That's not what I want to hear.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Clay.
The pain is real.
But you are off.
And you got to get yourself squared away for the good of the team.
You sure I'm the only one you should be giving this speech to? It seems to me the only one who's worried about the good of the team, Ray, is you.
It's not Bravo 1.
[PHONE VIBRATING.]
Okay.
Bye.
Now what happens? You do everything exactly the way you've done it before.
You do not deviate in any way.
These agents will take you home and they'll stay with you.
It's almost over, Carla.
Muy bien.
MANDY: Four hours ago, Lazo called Carla to set up an escort for tonight.
Okay.
Who's the lucky lady? Sofia Nuñez.
She's an aspiring actress, one-time Mexicana Universal contestant.
Sofia is meeting Lazo at a nightclub called La Social.
So we gonna pick him up en route or wait till he gets to his shag pad? MARTINEZ: Picking him up's gonna do us no good.
The minute that Lazo goes off the grid, Doza's gonna know something is up.
All right, so what's the plan? After Lazo meets Sofia at the club, we track her cell to wherever he takes her.
CISEN will then step in to establish surveillance on El Lazo - going forward.
- That's great and all, but a guy like Lazo isn't just gonna walk in the front door.
So what we need to do is we need to verify he's inside with Sofia.
You want to put eyes in the club? - Mm-hmm.
- Not sure we're gonna blend in.
Uh, well, La Social is a hot spot for Europeans and Americans.
And the Cartel.
Okay, so who's going in? Couples attract less attention.
Meaning? Meaning you've got a date tonight.
Should our cover be that we're celebrating an anniversary or on our honeymoon? I'd say the honeymoon's over.
All right, let's get some rest.
Gonna be a long night.
A lot of moving pieces in this one, brother.
Never thought I'd miss the simplicity of kicking down doors.
What, a low-vis op, bunch of Cartel killers in a club.
What can go wrong? Besides that.
La Social is the most popular club in the city with two levels and an estimated nightly attendance of about 2,000 people.
Between service doors and VIP entrances, the club has more than a dozen entry and exit points.
We're gonna need low-vis vehicles watching from every side of this building.
RITA: La Social is Cartel-friendly.
That means that Lazo's men will be strapped.
RAY: But the metal detectors means Mandy and Jason won't be.
No armor, no comms either.
That's risky.
Reyes instructed Sofia to arrive at 10:30.
The club is at its busiest between 10:00 and 2:00.
It's gonna be difficult to keep track of El Lazo in that crowd.
ERIC: All we need to do is confirm that Sofia leaves with him.
Then we can track her phone to his next location.
You thinking a follow op? Two cars, one front, one behind? DAVIS: Given the nature of this city its narrow streets, sharp turns, and heavy traffic I suggest you follow from a distance.
Standard CTR.
Agreed.
I'm assuming ISR's still out? Drone use over the city would require approval from multiple government agencies.
We might as well tell Doza that we're tailing his boy.
Not a lot of options.
Well, if we want Doza, we go with what we got.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
SONNY: Damn, look at that.
CLAY: We definitely drew the short straw.
Mm-mm.
No way in hell.
That music inside is like a sick calf bawling for mama.
Bravo 2, this is Bravo 3.
How's it look on your side? RAY: We've got multiple fighting-age males entering the club.
All armed.
They're likely getting ready for Lazo's arrival.
Jason and Mandy are in the lion's den now.
MANDY: Lazo's date's arrived.
[PHONE CHIMES.]
Havoc, this is Bravo 2.
Bravo 1 has eyes on Cinderella.
As does Rita.
Signal ping is working.
We have a lock on her phone.
ERIC: That's a good copy, Bravo 2.
We have it as well.
Let us know when the HVT arrives.
RAY: Copy that.
I don't like not having eyes on them.
Rita's their backup.
All they have to do is stay locked onto Sofia's phone and follow from a distance.
Simple.
Why is it always the simple ones that worry me? I don't understand places like this.
If you ask me, it's loud noise, it's crowded, there's $1000 bottles of Ukrainian vodka.
Not the spot I would take you on our first date.
You seem more like a, uh, dive bar and tequila gal.
That means I dragged you here? Hmm.
[CHUCKLES.]
We're a couple for ten minutes, we're already a cliché, Jeff.
I shouldn't have doubted you.
I don't want to be at each other's throats forever.
I want to put it to bed.
- Bury it.
- Want to bury it? Yeah, you're pretty good at burying things.
- Burying people, too.
- [SCOFFS.]
Was going to Harrington that wrong? Like I said before, if you had any doubts, you should have come to me.
It wasn't entirely about doubts.
Maybe I was thinking that pulling you down here so soon after losing Alana wasn't the best thing for you and your kids.
Maybe I was thinking about you, Jason.
Well, you put it that way, makes it a lot easier to swallow.
Then again, you make a living telling people what they want to hear.
I don't believe you.
[DOOR CHIMES.]
Lazo's here.
Come on.
[PHONE CHIMES.]
Bravo 2 to Havoc.
Bravo 1 has eyes on HVT, who has made contact with Cinderella.
ERIC: Good copy, Bravo 2.
None of my people saw him come through the street.
Likely came up from underground.
Martinez, let's have your man sit on the garage exits, yeah? Copy.
[SPANISH MUSIC PLAYING.]
Is he gonna chat all night or is he gonna close the deal? Terrorizing a country is a stressful job.
Even psychopaths need someone to talk to.
JASON: Hey, he's taking a call.
Damn it.
[PHONE RINGS.]
Yeah? Do you have a lock on Cinderella's cell? We lost her.
Yeah, boss, she's still in the club.
Northwest corner of the building.
Copy.
Check to see if she's in the bathroom.
We lose her, we lose our track on Lazo.
We lose Lazo, we lose Doza.
[PHONE RINGING.]
What is it, boss? Got eyes on our HVT? RAY: Negative.
Watching all doors.
Thinking he left without our Cinderella.
[CHUCKLES.]
What is it? Sofia said Lazo left to see his boss.
He left to go see Doza.
It's not exactly solid intelligence.
Don't have anything else to go on here.
Something's wrong.
RAY: There's Jason.
- Silver Mercedes, heading east.
- He's leaving his date? Yup.
To meet Doza.
Drive.
MARTINEZ: This could all end tonight.
Yeah, that's right, it could end tonight.
RAY: All elements, this is Bravo 2.
We are following the HVT.
Headed northbound on Paseo de la Reforma.
What the hell? I don't remember this being part of the plan.
J, following Lazo without the girl's cell to track? There's too many unknowns.
We don't know why he left his date or how many eyes are on him.
Sitting on his bumper is not the smartest play.
It's our only one, Ray.
Sit on the bumper, Trent.
ERIC: Bravo 2, this is Havoc.
Interrogative; is Cinderella with the HVT? RAY: Negative, Havoc.
He's alone.
All right, good copy, Bravo 2.
Maintain your distance, keep your heads down.
- RAY: Roger that.
- We don't have the cell.
You're not scrubbing the op? Jason's call.
Gonna back it.
[PHONE RINGING.]
What? Nobody's answering at Reyes's.
We're on our way to her apartment now.
- All right.
Keep me posted.
- MANDY: Jason, I have a bad feeling.
I think we could be burned.
We don't know that; keep me posted.
Hey.
Where are we? Ixtapaluca, it's the biggest slum in the city.
RAY: Any idea why Lazo would be meeting Doza in a place like this? MARTINEZ: Yeah, Doza's smart.
He would never set up a meeting at the Four Seasons.
No one would ever think to look here.
SONNY: Bravo 3 to Bravo 1.
We're passing outside our 20 minute perimeter of our QRF.
Is there any reason we don't wave this off? JASON: Bravo 3, this is 1.
Got you loud and clear.
Charlie Mike.
Continue mission? We're sitting cucarachas.
JASON: Bravo 3, this is 1.
They split right, down two side streets.
That's not good.
Havoc to all Bravo stations, we have vehicles rapidly approaching our position.
Havoc Base, this is Bravo 6.
We have troops in contact.
Copy, Bravo 6.
Bravo 1, QRF is inbound.
Get your guys mustered up in five and out the damn door.
- Davis, I need ISR ASAP.
- Roger, sir.
JASON: Go through them.
CLAY: RPG!
They executed an American DEA agent.
CISEN recovered the Mercedes.
GPS tells the story.
Multiple visits to local businesses.
RITA: One business stands out: the Reyes Talent Agency, owned by a very successful businesswoman, Carla Reyes.
MANDY: There will be a Doza connection, we just have to figure it out.
- Who the hell are you? - Right now, I'm your executioner.
Why not make me a friend? "Muerta.
" Marked for death.
My family.
Now do you understand? RAY: You blame yourself for the position he's in.
- You're latching on.
- Latching onto what, Ray? A family that needs to be kept together 'cause yours was torn apart.
I don't think that I can be with you anymore.
[CRYING.]
: I'm sorry.
- Cheers, buddy.
Here we go.
- Send that down.
I'll meet you outside.
He's getting the drinks.
- Yeah.
All right.
- See you! Oh, man.
Here we go.
Feet up.
The target was Gonzalez.
Are you questioning me right now, Mandy? We don't stand a chance of getting Doza if your head is back home.
[ROMANTIC SPANISH MUSIC PLAYING.]
Happy anniversary, Andres Doza.
Maria, you shouldn't have.
And my present? As soon as I get back.
I promise.
You forgot to remind me it's my anniversary.
I have no present.
LAZO: What, your girlfriend? My wife, fool.
Just give her the gift of cash.
Cash only works with girlfriends, Lazo.
Not wives.
One day, you'll learn that.
I entrusted you with the plaza, Javier, and you repay me by stealing from me? No, Señor Doza, this is all a misunderstanding.
Look at the position you have put your employees in.
What will you tell his family? [WOMAN SOBBING.]
You think I don't track how much product comes through the plaza? Please, Andres, it's my wife.
My wife handles all of the accounting.
Well, that's fortunate because she's here.
She can clear the matter.
[WOMAN SOBBING.]
DOZA: Gabriela is it true what Javier is saying? You're responsible for the theft of my money? No.
What are you talking about? Convincing.
I believe her.
No, I did not say that Gabriela was responsible.
I said she handles all the [SCREAMS.]
: Help me! Oh, my God! [SCREAMING, SOBBING.]
Please accept my sincere apologies for this ugliness.
But I cannot go easy on you and your employees because you're family.
[GUNSHOT.]
Please, please, please don't kill me I am not a monster.
[CRYING.]
DOZA: Do you really think I would kill my wife's sister? Maria would never forgive me.
So I want you to go home, never speak of this.
Tell Maria that Javier, pig that he is, left you for another woman.
Okay, Andres.
SÃ.
Thank you.
Thank you.
[GABRIELA MOANING.]
Shh Your sister would like these.
Yes, Maria would.
Take them.
Gracias, Gabriela.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
How are your sons? - They're bored.
- Yeah.
- They miss their friends.
- Mm-hmm.
They don't understand why they're here.
Danger isn't real for them.
It's our job to protect them.
- Isn't that right, Lopez? - You sound like a good father.
Jury's still out on that one.
I'm trying to be a good father.
Day to day, right? That's all you can do.
Day to day.
You know, what you did for me last night, coming after me, that took courage.
I thought I was doing what was best for my family.
I wasn't.
Thank you.
Getting Doza is what's best for your family right now.
We do that, and we get your boys back to their friends, okay? God willing.
Nobody's gotten close to Doza yet.
Let's hope snagging Carla Reyes leads us somewhere.
'Cause she's all we got right now.
Right? - You got anything yet? - Not yet, but we will.
Getting tired of waiting on you.
Phone records, bank records, travel records.
What are we missing? Carla Reyes's bra size.
And the date of her First Communion.
Otherwise we know everything about her.
All we have to show for it are the names of a few mid-level cartel figures.
Dante Vega, a money man for Doza, visited Carla Reyes several times; we know this.
There's got to be something more, some deeper connection that Carla has to Doza.
Unless there isn't.
We've been through everything.
Twice.
No.
She's hiding something.
Let's go through it again.
Hiyah! Wake up, Sleeping Beauty.
[GROANS.]
Rise and shine.
- Nope.
- You see, I think I found a cure for this emotional pain that ails you.
What the hell are you talking about, man? Oh, you fighting your way through the battlefield of despair.
Look at that.
What's a battlefield of despair? What are you talking about? [GRUNTS.]
Right.
See, you need a plan.
How 'bout I stop drinking bad tequila? - Is that a good plan? - Not enough of one.
You see, a plan is waging war and taking out the enemy.
And tequila, my friend, is not your enemy.
Heartbreak is.
- You understand? - Oh, all right, Sonny.
You know what, I would honestly rather right now you wrapped your little skivvies around my face than hear what you're about to tell me.
Okay.
One might ask how you wage war against heartbreak.
I will tell you.
Step one: you need to minimize it in all forms.
Which means you need to block Stella on all social media platforms.
No late-night perusing of her pictures, and no checking on her updated relationship status.
- Is this seriously happening right now? - Uh-huh.
Step two: you need to create a heartbreak-free environment.
That means purging your living space - of all gifts.
- Yeah.
Anything associated with the-the person of-of your affection.
Hold on a second.
Did you just say "person of affection"? Yes.
Where did you, where did you get this? - Uh, well [CHUCKLES.]
- Sonny? Did you google how to get over a breakup? No.
My Okay, look, I got it from Cosmo.
[LAUGHING.]
You boys having fun? We're healing, Ray.
- What, from last night? - Yes.
What the hell is it I hear about you two going outside the wire? - Who told you that? - RAY: The moron police.
Got you dead to rights.
You two witness some dude get schwacked at a strip club, and you decide to hit the town? Okay, look, Mr.
Buzzkill, it was my idea to take the young buck out.
No, come on, Sonny.
It was my idea to go to the club.
What do you think Jason would say if he found out? What could he say? Jason went outside the wire, too.
Yeah, to help Lopez.
Him and his entire family has been marked for death.
Ray, you know the White House sent us down here because Andres Doza murdered an American DEA agent? Graham Kowit.
Remember him? Yeah, well, he's the reason we're here.
Not the, uh, not the Lopez family.
It is not your place to question number one, Spenser.
Or me.
Now, you go outside the wire again, I'll drop the hammer.
We can go through this ten more times.
It won't matter.
Reyes is a dead end.
Maybe not.
I-I need to see the bank statements for the past two years.
Thanks.
- Yep.
- What is it? Carla's been holding out on us.
[LAUGHS SOFTLY.]
REYES: I gave you everything.
RITA: No, you gave us Doza's middle management.
You asked for the names of my clients.
MANDY: All of your clients, Carla.
Not just the ones who don't terrify you.
You keep meticulous records.
Too meticulous.
There's a lot of outgoing payments to some of your girls.
No corresponding incoming payments from a client.
Somebody's getting a freebie.
- Must be someone special.
- Someone scary.
MANDY: Someone you know will kill you if you talk.
You're gonna have to talk.
He will kill me.
Then helping us find Doza is your best chance for survival.
Help us, Carla, and you can go back to your life.
The one you had before the cartel.
[EXHALES.]
Luis Castillo.
He's the client I've been comping.
Luis Castillo? Who is Luis Castillo? He's Doza's most trusted lieutenant.
He's his best friend.
They call him El Lazo.
This is the break we need.
We find Lazo, we find Doza.
LOPEZ: Colonel, I need to be a part of it.
My mind's good.
I got it set straight.
Let the man work.
Let him work.
MANDY: Okay.
One of the very few pictures we have of Doza.
Beside him is Luis Castillo, aka El Lazo.
He is Doza's second in command and his oldest friend.
El Lazo? "The Noose.
" All right, look, is there a link between Lazo and Carla Reyes? MANDY: Lazo uses Reyes's escort services.
Every time Lazo comes to Mexico City, he calls her, for a woman.
How often is he in town? Last trip was eight weeks ago.
So we just wait around till he gets horny.
JASON: No.
This is what we do.
We lure him to Mexico City.
What's your proposal on that? This guy's Doza's number two, right? What's the number two guy do? He takes care of all of the major problems.
What do we do? Create a major problem.
Hit one of his assets.
[SPEAKING SPANISH.]
What? This.
This is a pottery factory.
It's right outside the city.
This is a front for Doza's biggest meth lab.
We take it out.
- Perfect.
- Doza's a businessman.
Right? I'm sure he's got losses built in to the whole system.
So we just take out this one lab, it might not even elicit a response.
Unless the lab was taken out by a rival cartel.
Doza would never ignore that.
Mm-hmm.
You want to start our own cartel? Damn straight.
Los Badasses.
That's got a nice ring to it, doesn't it? [LAUGHS.]
CLAY: All right, so we-we hit the lab, right? We hope that Lazo takes the bait, comes back to town? We hit it hard, man.
Let's go hunting, boys.
Yeah, we need to blend in for this op.
Wear civilian clothes, cover our faces, minimal comms, ND vehicles and, most importantly, the attack itself needs to look like a cartel hit.
- Rough and messy, right? - Rough and messy.
We can do a simultaneous breach on two sides of the building.
Clear towards the middle.
Set charges, break out.
JASON: How many hostiles you expect we're gonna encounter here? LOPEZ: Doza will have armed men there.
Understand: many who work in the factory don't want to be there.
They made bad choices, they're not bad people.
All right, we're not out to hurt nobody, right? So we let them go, hope they spread the word back to Doza.
SONNY: Rules of engagement? ERIC: If they're armed, we engage.
Needs to be fast.
In, out.
[GRUNTS.]
JASON: Havoc, this is 1.
I pass Petty.
ERIC: Bravo 1, this is Havoc.
I copy Petty.
JASON: Bravo 2, this is 1, stand by.
Bravo 1, this is Bravo 2.
In position.
Execute, execute, execute.
[MEN SPEAKING SPANISH.]
[WOMAN SCREAMS.]
[SCREAMS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Have your men set the charges, then meet us back at the exfil point.
Havoc, this is 1.
We're passing Earnhardt.
ERIC: Good copy, Bravo 1.
Passing Earnhardt.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
JASON: Hey.
Nice work out there.
Once the bullets started flying, all my problems went away.
Yeah, I know that drill.
I know it all so well.
It's the calm in the chaos.
But now we're back.
And so are your problems.
My my sons, they can't live like this forever.
They did nothing wrong.
You got to hang in there.
Like I told you, we're gonna get this done.
We're not leaving till we get Doza, and your family is safe.
[WOMAN SPEAKING SPANISH OVER TV.]
Here it is right here.
Uh ALL: Oh! Another slap, another drink.
Ah, man, he is getting beat up.
Hey, you guys mind turning this down a little bit? Some of us have better things to do than listen to this crap.
Ain't that right, Spenser? SONNY: What are you talking about, Ray Perry? This is the best damn show on TV.
Little señorita right there, well, she could slap me any day of the week, 'cause she is half-crazy, half-fire.
That is the perfect Sonny Quinn mix right there.
Mm, I'm just a little surprised that her name doesn't end in a Y, Sonny.
- Meaning? - Uh, Tammy, Brandy, Tiffany, Charity.
See a theme here? [SONNY MOCK-LAUGHING.]
Well, let's talk about your track record there, Davis.
- Let's not.
Let's not.
- Okay Todd.
Okay.
- Then there was Keith.
- Stop.
And then the winner, winner, chicken dinner: - Dakota.
- Okay.
[SONNY LAUGHS.]
Here it goes again.
Here she comes.
ALL: Oh! SONNY: Oh, he's got welts.
Look at him.
Look at him.
He needs some ice.
CISEN's picked up a lot of chatter about our hit on the lab.
Specifically, speculation that the Merida Cartel was behind it.
- That's good.
- You realize that even if El Lazo comes to town, there's no guarantee he'll call Carla for a woman? - He will.
- It's been three days and nada.
He'll call.
We're all creatures of habit.
Oof, this is the part I hate.
The waiting.
- You picked the wrong job.
- [CHUCKLES.]
What got you into this work? A CIA recruiter approached me in college.
I had no idea what the job entailed, but how about you? I'm from a small town.
An only child, so my father was my hero.
- Mm.
- He was a kind man.
Always happy, until the cartels came.
From then on, he lived in fear that they would force him to grow drugs.
They never did, but my father's his fear and his, his worry replaced his, his faith and his joy.
And I grew up wanting no one else to know that fear.
What about your family? Oh, um, I never knew my father and, uh, my mother was a criminal, for lack of a better word.
Actually, that's the perfect word for it.
She was a scammer, a con artist.
Credit card fraud, insurance fraud, identity theft.
She was always working one angle or another, one man or another; one of them was my dad.
I don't think I've ever heard her tell the truth about anything, not even the weather.
That's no way to grow up.
[CHUCKLES.]
Nope.
Hi, Em, it's Dad.
I'm calling you again 'cause according to the schedule that we have, I was supposed to talk to you today.
So just do me a favor, can you call me back and tell me that you're getting these messages.
I'd like to hear from my kids, okay? I love you.
Bye.
Hey.
All good at home? Yeah, all is great at home, just, you know, the kids, they're MIA, Davis.
I can't They're probably just out having fun.
Well, if they're out having fun, it'd be nice if they would call to confirm that.
Talk to me, leave me a voice mail.
I've called, like, 19,000 times.
They're not picking up.
I don't know.
Maybe I can get some sleep when they do.
I think that every kid feels a certain responsibility to drive his parents crazy.
Well, then I guess my kids are overachievers, Davis.
Hey, how're you doing? How're you holding up? How am I doing? How am I doing? I don't know how to answer that.
I really don't.
Good.
Okay.
I guess it depends on the time of day, right? Got to get Lazo here.
I got to get him here.
I got to lure this guy here 'cause I got to do something.
Man, I'm - I get it.
- Yeah.
Hey.
What you did for Lopez, that was It's good to give men hope.
[CHUCKLES.]
Hope.
Not a lot of hope these days here.
You've seen the stats, right? You read about them? 30,000 people were killed last year in this war in Mexico.
That is 80 families a day torn apart.
I know.
I get it.
It's hard to wrap your head around.
Yeah.
[SIGHS.]
Yeah, it is.
But, hey, thank God for the tequila, right? [CLEARS THROAT.]
Bag's all yours.
I'm not here for that.
I'm here to find out why you've been hitting that bag like you've been watching Rocky on a loop.
Nothing's wrong.
The hell it's not.
Something is wrong.
Clay Spenser I know doesn't question his leaders or disobey team rules.
You're off.
And I'm not going away till you tell me why.
It's, uh Stella.
She left me.
I'm sorry to hear that, brother.
I thought everything was solid between you two.
Yeah, it was.
Yeah, and then, uh, then it wasn't.
Adam's death really hit her hard.
Then me taking a round terrified her.
The thing is, I-I I thought that I could have it all.
I did.
Thought I could have the team, the family, you know, as long as I just, as long as I just tried, as long as I did it better than my old, my old man, better than Jason.
I was wrong, Ray.
Reality is, it's a choice.
It's one or the other.
Me and Naima make it work.
Yeah, well, you two are a miracle.
Miracles don't happen for most people.
Look, just because this isn't the life for Stella does not mean you cannot have them both.
Just maybe not with her.
That's not what I want to hear.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Clay.
The pain is real.
But you are off.
And you got to get yourself squared away for the good of the team.
You sure I'm the only one you should be giving this speech to? It seems to me the only one who's worried about the good of the team, Ray, is you.
It's not Bravo 1.
[PHONE VIBRATING.]
Okay.
Bye.
Now what happens? You do everything exactly the way you've done it before.
You do not deviate in any way.
These agents will take you home and they'll stay with you.
It's almost over, Carla.
Muy bien.
MANDY: Four hours ago, Lazo called Carla to set up an escort for tonight.
Okay.
Who's the lucky lady? Sofia Nuñez.
She's an aspiring actress, one-time Mexicana Universal contestant.
Sofia is meeting Lazo at a nightclub called La Social.
So we gonna pick him up en route or wait till he gets to his shag pad? MARTINEZ: Picking him up's gonna do us no good.
The minute that Lazo goes off the grid, Doza's gonna know something is up.
All right, so what's the plan? After Lazo meets Sofia at the club, we track her cell to wherever he takes her.
CISEN will then step in to establish surveillance on El Lazo - going forward.
- That's great and all, but a guy like Lazo isn't just gonna walk in the front door.
So what we need to do is we need to verify he's inside with Sofia.
You want to put eyes in the club? - Mm-hmm.
- Not sure we're gonna blend in.
Uh, well, La Social is a hot spot for Europeans and Americans.
And the Cartel.
Okay, so who's going in? Couples attract less attention.
Meaning? Meaning you've got a date tonight.
Should our cover be that we're celebrating an anniversary or on our honeymoon? I'd say the honeymoon's over.
All right, let's get some rest.
Gonna be a long night.
A lot of moving pieces in this one, brother.
Never thought I'd miss the simplicity of kicking down doors.
What, a low-vis op, bunch of Cartel killers in a club.
What can go wrong? Besides that.
La Social is the most popular club in the city with two levels and an estimated nightly attendance of about 2,000 people.
Between service doors and VIP entrances, the club has more than a dozen entry and exit points.
We're gonna need low-vis vehicles watching from every side of this building.
RITA: La Social is Cartel-friendly.
That means that Lazo's men will be strapped.
RAY: But the metal detectors means Mandy and Jason won't be.
No armor, no comms either.
That's risky.
Reyes instructed Sofia to arrive at 10:30.
The club is at its busiest between 10:00 and 2:00.
It's gonna be difficult to keep track of El Lazo in that crowd.
ERIC: All we need to do is confirm that Sofia leaves with him.
Then we can track her phone to his next location.
You thinking a follow op? Two cars, one front, one behind? DAVIS: Given the nature of this city its narrow streets, sharp turns, and heavy traffic I suggest you follow from a distance.
Standard CTR.
Agreed.
I'm assuming ISR's still out? Drone use over the city would require approval from multiple government agencies.
We might as well tell Doza that we're tailing his boy.
Not a lot of options.
Well, if we want Doza, we go with what we got.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
SONNY: Damn, look at that.
CLAY: We definitely drew the short straw.
Mm-mm.
No way in hell.
That music inside is like a sick calf bawling for mama.
Bravo 2, this is Bravo 3.
How's it look on your side? RAY: We've got multiple fighting-age males entering the club.
All armed.
They're likely getting ready for Lazo's arrival.
Jason and Mandy are in the lion's den now.
MANDY: Lazo's date's arrived.
[PHONE CHIMES.]
Havoc, this is Bravo 2.
Bravo 1 has eyes on Cinderella.
As does Rita.
Signal ping is working.
We have a lock on her phone.
ERIC: That's a good copy, Bravo 2.
We have it as well.
Let us know when the HVT arrives.
RAY: Copy that.
I don't like not having eyes on them.
Rita's their backup.
All they have to do is stay locked onto Sofia's phone and follow from a distance.
Simple.
Why is it always the simple ones that worry me? I don't understand places like this.
If you ask me, it's loud noise, it's crowded, there's $1000 bottles of Ukrainian vodka.
Not the spot I would take you on our first date.
You seem more like a, uh, dive bar and tequila gal.
That means I dragged you here? Hmm.
[CHUCKLES.]
We're a couple for ten minutes, we're already a cliché, Jeff.
I shouldn't have doubted you.
I don't want to be at each other's throats forever.
I want to put it to bed.
- Bury it.
- Want to bury it? Yeah, you're pretty good at burying things.
- Burying people, too.
- [SCOFFS.]
Was going to Harrington that wrong? Like I said before, if you had any doubts, you should have come to me.
It wasn't entirely about doubts.
Maybe I was thinking that pulling you down here so soon after losing Alana wasn't the best thing for you and your kids.
Maybe I was thinking about you, Jason.
Well, you put it that way, makes it a lot easier to swallow.
Then again, you make a living telling people what they want to hear.
I don't believe you.
[DOOR CHIMES.]
Lazo's here.
Come on.
[PHONE CHIMES.]
Bravo 2 to Havoc.
Bravo 1 has eyes on HVT, who has made contact with Cinderella.
ERIC: Good copy, Bravo 2.
None of my people saw him come through the street.
Likely came up from underground.
Martinez, let's have your man sit on the garage exits, yeah? Copy.
[SPANISH MUSIC PLAYING.]
Is he gonna chat all night or is he gonna close the deal? Terrorizing a country is a stressful job.
Even psychopaths need someone to talk to.
JASON: Hey, he's taking a call.
Damn it.
[PHONE RINGS.]
Yeah? Do you have a lock on Cinderella's cell? We lost her.
Yeah, boss, she's still in the club.
Northwest corner of the building.
Copy.
Check to see if she's in the bathroom.
We lose her, we lose our track on Lazo.
We lose Lazo, we lose Doza.
[PHONE RINGING.]
What is it, boss? Got eyes on our HVT? RAY: Negative.
Watching all doors.
Thinking he left without our Cinderella.
[CHUCKLES.]
What is it? Sofia said Lazo left to see his boss.
He left to go see Doza.
It's not exactly solid intelligence.
Don't have anything else to go on here.
Something's wrong.
RAY: There's Jason.
- Silver Mercedes, heading east.
- He's leaving his date? Yup.
To meet Doza.
Drive.
MARTINEZ: This could all end tonight.
Yeah, that's right, it could end tonight.
RAY: All elements, this is Bravo 2.
We are following the HVT.
Headed northbound on Paseo de la Reforma.
What the hell? I don't remember this being part of the plan.
J, following Lazo without the girl's cell to track? There's too many unknowns.
We don't know why he left his date or how many eyes are on him.
Sitting on his bumper is not the smartest play.
It's our only one, Ray.
Sit on the bumper, Trent.
ERIC: Bravo 2, this is Havoc.
Interrogative; is Cinderella with the HVT? RAY: Negative, Havoc.
He's alone.
All right, good copy, Bravo 2.
Maintain your distance, keep your heads down.
- RAY: Roger that.
- We don't have the cell.
You're not scrubbing the op? Jason's call.
Gonna back it.
[PHONE RINGING.]
What? Nobody's answering at Reyes's.
We're on our way to her apartment now.
- All right.
Keep me posted.
- MANDY: Jason, I have a bad feeling.
I think we could be burned.
We don't know that; keep me posted.
Hey.
Where are we? Ixtapaluca, it's the biggest slum in the city.
RAY: Any idea why Lazo would be meeting Doza in a place like this? MARTINEZ: Yeah, Doza's smart.
He would never set up a meeting at the Four Seasons.
No one would ever think to look here.
SONNY: Bravo 3 to Bravo 1.
We're passing outside our 20 minute perimeter of our QRF.
Is there any reason we don't wave this off? JASON: Bravo 3, this is 1.
Got you loud and clear.
Charlie Mike.
Continue mission? We're sitting cucarachas.
JASON: Bravo 3, this is 1.
They split right, down two side streets.
That's not good.
Havoc to all Bravo stations, we have vehicles rapidly approaching our position.
Havoc Base, this is Bravo 6.
We have troops in contact.
Copy, Bravo 6.
Bravo 1, QRF is inbound.
Get your guys mustered up in five and out the damn door.
- Davis, I need ISR ASAP.
- Roger, sir.
JASON: Go through them.
CLAY: RPG!
