Sign it.
No.
Please.
It's my life's work.
You either sign, or you're sentencing your family to death back at the ranch.
Sign it.
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
Boss, someone's here to see you.
What's up?
What brings you to Acapulco, boss?
Thank you.
Joaquín has an assignment for you.
"LA MUÑECA" ARTURO BERNAL LEYDA'S LIEUTENANT
Cool, why me?
Because you're from Nuevo Laredo.
Raciel's and the Gulf's turf.
That's precisely why we want you.
Don Joaquín, I'm at your service.
RIVERSIDE ROAD
Do you still have friends in the Gulf's crew?
A few, Don Joaquín.
Most of the people from my old neighborhood work for Raciel.
Are these the infamous Emes?
The strong arm of the Gulf.
Trained by the Gringos and the Israelites.
"EME 16" CANO'S LIEUTENANT
Follow us, the boss is waiting.
They answer directly to Cano.
They're Elite Military, just like him.
What can we do for you?
I wanna run some blow to Chicago.
And I'd like to run it through your turf.
I thought you wouldn't want any more business with us.
Because you declined to join the Federation?
Business is business, Raciel.
You have your reasons.
What happened to your tunnels?
Still in place.
But going to Chicago is not feasible from here.
What do you think, bro?
"TONY TEMPEST" GULF'S SECOND IN COMMAND
You could run 10 tons a month, max.
We'll provide deposits and customs liaisons.
You take care of the men and the trucks.
We keep 10 percent of the profit.
The Federation has an exclusive deal with the DEA.
Your customs liaison is not needed.
Just your deposits will do. And we'll give you seven.
That works. Seven percent.
Muñeca will oversee this entire operation.
Keep your eyes on Chapo's man.
We can't trust the fucker.
Let's go.
I have to take this in private.
Hello.
Hello, Conrado.
I have a gift for you.
Why so generous?
Raciel won't cave.
He's a danger to the Federation's stability.
I'll get him for you, but I get to keep Nuevo Laredo.
POSTAL COMMUNITY RACIEL'S DEPOSITS
Here they come!
Hurry up!
It's all going well, Don Joaquín.
We're preparing the first shipment.
The rest will be more complicated.
We're being watched.
You're in. That was the hard part.
Notify me when you have something.
Yes, sir.
This is as far as you go, fucker!
You shit your pants, Muñeca!
-I've been looking for you. -That's it!
Come on, fucking Muñeca! Let's sing one!
Once after I'm dead and gone
Set up a cross Made out of marijuana
I want to write a corrido for myself.
I never forgave you for stealing my girl.
Shit! Ruby?
I did you a favor, asshole!
Do me another favor and take my woman now!
What, you have another chubby one?
We're approaching the safe house.
Let's go get our weapons.
Let's go.
Here's the payment for the first shipment.
Don Joaquín says he's grateful for your support.
Tell him we feel the same.
I'll bring in your part as we continue to ship out.
ARTURO BERNAL LEYDA'S RESIDENCE CULIACÁN, MEXICO
Could we have a word?
Do you know what Joaquín is up to?
Listen, you're in charge.
All I'm saying is that the Emes are just as trained as we are,
if not more so.
Plus they outnumber us two to one.
If we send our sicarios there, they'll be slaughtered like lambs.
Our advantage is to ambush them.
Yes, but...
our disadvantage is that it's not our territory.
They're in control there, plus they've got plenty of reinforcements.
True.
But our people are not quitters.
Or are they?
No, never.
What's that?
It's the Emes.
They burn down the homes of those who decline to cooperate.
They're fucking nuts.
The band has been confirmed for Saturday.
You're shitting me!
A party?
At the boss's ranch. They're something else, man!
We'll kill two birds with one stone.
The Feds and the Army are going in to get Raciel.
Without a leader...
plus all the commotion at the party...
it will be the perfect moment to overtake Nuevo Laredo.
What about Tony Tempest?
With his brother captured,
he'll have no other option but to acquiesce to the Federation.
The Gulf's crew is at one end, and we're at the other.
Why the fuck are we going after them?
Because those who aren't with us are against us.
Besides, what we're doing is called expansion.
The Federation has to be the sole owner
of the business in all of Mexico.
We have to manifest the power of our alliance.
This is the moment to do so.
Let's do it.
When's the party?
The Federal Squad and the Army
will be going right in.
FEDERAL POLICE QUARTERS MEXICO CITY
We will wait and go in through two different fronts.
Arriero and his team will go in through Nuevo Leon.
Muñeca will take care of letting the rest in.
RACIEL'S DEPOSITS POSTAL DISTRICT
We're ready, in position.
Hold for my signal.
Entering Nuevo Laredo...
RACIEL'S RANCH TOLERANCIA ZONE
Watch out!
Federal police! Don't move!
Hands up! Down on the ground!
Move it, move it!
They've captured Raciel! Request for backup!
Motherfucker!
Hurry up, you bastard!
Raciel's been captured.
10-4, Confirmed.
Go in.
Get Tony at the ranch and take control of the territory! Right now!
It's party time.
Come on!
They got the boss! They've captured the boss!
We've heard Emes requesting for reinforcements, it's all chaos now!
LOS ARCOS TOWNSHIP
OAKS TOWNSHIP AIRPORT VICINITY
Have everything ready.
We're approaching the airport.
Get them, asshole.
RACIEL'S RANCH TOLERANCIA ZONE
We're under attack!
We're standing our ground, Joaquin. We're getting them.
We're arriving at the safe house.
RACIEL'S SAFE HOUSE FERROCARRIL TOWNSHIP
You've been missed, fucker!
Now I want to write a corrido for...
Sir, the safe houses are being overtaken.
We're about to go in.
I want Tony Tempest alive.
Cano! Cano!
Sir, the Sinaloa Crew's taking over the city!
Motherfuckers!
Raciel's fucked!
We're gonna protect the turf.
EMES, YOU HAVE 24 HRS. TO LEAVE TOWN. EL CHAPO
RACIEL'S SAFE HOUSE EMILIANO ZAPATA TOWNSHIP
From this day forward, El Chapo Guzman is your boss.
Got it?
Sir, the safe houses are being overtaken!
Right before the city, take 5th Ave. to the toll-free highway.
Get the 150 out.
LA FE AREA
This is almost over. We're fucking up the Gulf crew.
It's the Emes! Take cover!
They fucked us! They got all my men!
Muñeca here, we're being followed!
Arriero says they've killed all his men.
The other side, you ass!
You're surrounded.
Over there!
Turn around, asshole!
Turn around, you fuck! They're escaping!
We've lost many men, sir.
It was a slaughter!
We have to retreat, sir.
It's Uno, sir.
They counterattacked and caught us off-guard.
We have no way of continuing.
Sir, did you copy?
Retreat.
You defended our turf against those Federation assholes quite skillfully.
We'll figure out what to do to take vengeance.
This is war now.
The military controls everything in time of war.
Don't get this wrong, Cano.
You're my brother's lieutenant.
And in his absence, I'm the boss.
If it weren't for us...
you would've been captured by El Chapo.
The best thing is for you to tend to your businesses in Matamoros.
We'll take care of the rest.
Kill that fucker!
Are you gonna talk or not, motherfucker?
Throw him over!
Aside from the loss of men, we've also
lost the trucks and the logistics of getting the drugs to Chicago.
Get together with Chente and Rodolfillo
and close a deal to send the drugs through Juarez.
Tell them about what happened and that we'll discuss it in person.
I've always said that you're in command.
But, he was nearby.
You too.
It won't be easy to kill those fuckers.
The arrest of Raciel Cardenas is yet another breakthrough which
the Mexican Government can claim against drug trafficking.
Without its leader, the Gulf Cartel has now been left severely debilitated.
More incidents have been...
We broke free from the tiger, but the lion has awakened.
...as consequences with confrontations between...
Cano has demonstrated he's a better boss than Raciel.
That fucker reacted quicker than I had expected.
What are we going to do?
We're at war.
CHAPO GIVE US MORE COCKSUCKERS TO KILL OFF
And we're gonna win.
ALMOLOYA PENITENTIARY
I told you it was crazy.
We've lost money, weapons, men.
This confrontation made it clear that Cano and the Emes
are our most dangerous enemies.
-We have to get rid of them. -No, no, you promised us
that within the Federation we would work in peace.
Yet, this is gonna drag us into a war that'll end everyone's business.
You can go on on your own, leave us out of it.
You don't speak for us all, Rodolfillo.
The Emes...
are true militia.
Unlike you and your fake soldiers playing war with everyone's money.
-Calm your brother down. -Rodolfo...
...sit down.
Sorry, he will not interrupt anymore.
If you lack the balls to finish with this,
losses will be losses.
If we finish this, it will be our greatest investment.
Nuevo Laredo is the bastion of the Gulf.
And we have to take it from them.
For now, we'll need to change our strategy.
We will isolate them. There are more of us.
They only have the Michoacan Family.
We'll bring in their partner, Nazario, to our side.
I refuse to be part of this fucking bullshit!
Your brother's whinier than my bitches, man.
Bro, don't get me in any more trouble.
-Apologize, you moron. -Fuck, no.
That asshole thinks that just 'cause he broke out of jail he can do anything?
Plus, if it weren't for us, fucking Chapo wouldn't be sending shit to Chicago.
Listen, at this moment it's not convenient to be opposing him.
Inside or outside of jail,
El Chapo's more powerful than we are.
Buddy, get me another one.
You?
Yeah.
Jaguar!
Hey...
the things I said were only to mess with your boss.
I have no quarrel with you guys.
All right?
No problem.
You pay for your boss, fucker!
Jimena? What are you doing? I told you to stay at home. Come on!
Come on! I told you to stay at home!
Quickly!
What's wrong with you?
I left you a note we'd be here. Is something wrong?
It's done.
Now the good shit starts.
