All language subtitles for Seven Days s02e16 The Cuban Missile

We have a device that can allow one
human being back in time.

action sports.

Where are they now?

He was a soft -spoken farm boy from the
outskirts of Havana who vaulted into

legend at the 1988 Summer Games when he
became the youngest middleweight ever to

win a gold medal.

Orphaned at age seven, Teo Millar was
unofficially adopted and raised by Fidel

Castro himself.

A favorite son of the revolution, Millar
went on to take home more gold in the

92 and 96 game.

But despite those impressive wins, No
one outside of Cuba has seen him fight

since that time. Political tensions
between Cuba and the United States

back to the Cold War of the 1960s have
kept dictator Fidel Castro from allowing

Millar to compete in the American
-dominated world boxing stage, thus

maintaining a shroud of mystery around
the charismatic young boxer whom some

experts say might be pound for pound the
best fighter in the world. This has

been a CZN Action Sports Minute.

The professional ice dancing, the
celebrated Polish superstar, Karina

has confirmed she's carrying twins and
will retire her from this one.

Her admission comes as a surprise.

People were... Don't tell me, uh, Kate's
a crime

fighter by night?

You like it?

My first girlfriend made it for me when
I won Golden Globes in 86.

Her name was Heather Hamble.

Boy, could that girl...

So.

Such a shame, you know.

How's that?

Well, I can just imagine the chrononaut
you might have been if you hadn't spent

most of your formative years getting
beaten in the head.

Come on, Oliver, don't be such a girl.

No, girl, I'm speaking as a rational
adult human being.

Boxing is barbaric. It has the highest
critical injury rate of any so -called

sport. And I, for one, will be happy the
day it's finally banned.

Never gonna happen. Oh, no?

We are talking the purest, most primal
form of competition there is. No bull,

just two guys squaring off in a ring
with the talents God gave them.

There's nothing like a great fight. It's
pure poetry.

I'll take Pushkin any day, thank you
very much.

I'm sticking with my original position.

Which was?

You are such a girl.

I'm not.

Girly girl.

Go on, hit me.

You know you want to.

Um, guys, staff meeting.

Right. Right.

You know, the man can't stand to see a
true black entrepreneur work in the

system. You put me in prison?

Please. I do some of my best thinking in
the joint.

Did you know that 99 .9 % of all the
great notions of mankind was thought of

prison?

Socrates.

Galileo. And do you honestly think that
cat that wrote Crime and Punishment come

up with that in some hell spa?

You getting the idea, boss?

I've got the idea, baby.

Book me a flight to Havana. And tell the
boys on the strip that Sonny Hayes is

back. You got it.

Viagra! Free me, Viagra!

Si, mi gente.

Go to the farmacia.

El presidente is definitely losing it.

Well, well, well. Viva la revolution.

Ah, Senor Hayes.

Welcome to Cuba.

And General Buendia.

Follow me. Thank you. So, what do I call
him?

Presidente? His Excellency?

Fidel will be fine. Our leader is a man
of the people.

Fidel?

This is Sonny Hayes.

Who? El Senor Las Vegas.

Huh. Look, I can see you're a busy man,
so I'll get right to the point. Senor

Hayes! Do you like cats?

I'm a pit bull man myself.

After the Bay of Pigs, your CIA tried to
incite my people against me. When the

economic embargoes didn't work, they
took cats, hundreds of them, tied

to their tails, and rammed them through
our cane fields to burn them down and

ruin our economy.

Look, Uncle Sam don't exactly send me
Christmas cards either.

You want to talk about Teo Millar, huh?

Si.

Boys looking good.

Teo is a very special person, Senor
Hayes. Teo!

He's a hero to his people, and he's a
son to me.

Mijo!

Te beso en buena forma.

Oh, si, me siento bien.

Muy bien, mijo.

That boy could be the greatest fighter
on the planet. Except nobody knows it

you.

I know one thing, Senor Hayes. I know
what your capitalist system does to

athletes. It destroys them. They take
drugs. They become weak and greedy.

They wind up selling used cars in
Indiana.

But it ain't got to be like that.

Not when you got a kid like Teo.

Look. You want to give your people a
real hero?

You want to get some payback on Uncle
Sam? Then you let this boy whoop some

serious Yankee butt.

K .O. Miller versus Royal Flush Davis
for the undisputed middleweight

championship of the world.

Cuba versus America.

David against Goliath. Revolution versus
devolution. You can give Uncle Sam a

black eye live on pay -per -view and the
whole world's watching, baby.

As one rebel to another.

I will take the pot for the people.

My people need money.

And we'll call him the Cuban Missile.

I like it.

In a development that has shocked the
sports world, boxing promoter

Sonny Hayes has announced that legendary
Cuban middleweight Teo Millar will

finally make his professional debut.

with a title bout in Las Vegas against
Royal Flush Davis.

I will dedicate this fight to the memory
of my mother and sister, who died in a

car crash when I was seven years old.

And I know they are watching me.

And to Mr. Fidel Castro, who is my
father and everything.

Ringside ticket to the fight?

You're welcome.

These must have cost you $2 ,000 apiece.

$2 ,500, actually.

Now, you know Ramsey's going to go post
-off. This is on your titanium card.

I rerouted the charges. As far as you'll
know, I bought 10 grand worth of

language tapes.

Afghanistan and Zimbabwe, all the hot
spots. You bought four tickets? Who else

is going?

Olga. Olga?

She's a fight fan?

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

All right, she thinks we're going to see
that magician I crapped out on last

time we were in Vegas.

All right.

Come on, look, I know if she sees one
great fight, she's going to be hooked

life. More paperwork.

You know, I am so excited about tomorrow
night. I can't wait to finally see Rick

Thomas turn a lady into a tiger.

Me neither.

Oh, you're going to see a lady turn into
a tiger, all right.

In all my years covering this sport, I
have never seen the kind of electricity

we have here tonight.

Anti -cash flow demonstrators see this
fight as proof the United States is

softening its stance against the Cuban
dictator.

While sports fans all around the world
just want to see what the great Teo

Millar's got.

All this week he's been training in
secrecy. Cuban security forces have

the press from interviews.

This is set up to be one of the most
interesting and controversial fights we

ever see.

Oh, here's promoter Sonny Hayes, never a
stranger to controversy.

He was recently released from prison on
a successful appeal of his conviction

for money laundering. If they don't care
about that gem, they want to hear about

the fight. Because this just ain't about
a title. We're about to heat up the

Cold War and settle those scores.

This is the red versus the red, white,
and blue. Two great nations with a

history of patrimony facing off in the
square circle of pugilistic glory.

And Fidel, baby, if you're watching,
pause it, people.

Talk about ugly Americano.

Watch out, the backpack's back
themselves.

Oh, yeah.

She ain't bit yet, but I guarantee you
it's coming.

Come on, Olga, loosen up.

Mr. Parker, if you told me about this
ahead of time, I would never have come

Las Vegas. Just think of it as an
educational field trip. Yeah, Olga,

reason they call it the sweet science.
Look.

You see sporting technique. I see blunt
force trauma.

You say tomato. I say the moment I see
blood, I'm leaving.

What the?

Oh, hey, I'm sorry.

Reptile ass.

Sonny Hayes.

How come they let you out of the joint
so soon, my friend? Because one judge

able to see through the system of
judicore racism that has kept the black

chains. Save it for the camera, Sonny.

You ought to not leave those out there
like that.

Somebody might accidentally break them.

Frank, you just put the guy away for a
year, man. You sure you wouldn't be

messing with him like that? Can't hurt
me.

I brought my electric cape.

Figured I might be able to get Plus
Davis to autograph it.

He's scheduled for 12 rounds with the
winner to be crowned the undisputed

middleweight champion of the world!

How much you got on Flush, man?

How much did I make last year?

That's too close for comfort.

Yeah, I gotta go, American.

Besides, the Cuban keeps telegraphing
his hook.

Watch.

See? See, that's his best punch, and as
soon as Flush figures it out, it's gonna

be all over.

of the ring. There's still no clear sign
of how this terrible... Forensics have

placed the assassin in the catwalk above
the west end of the arena.

Police found the remains of a burned
security uniform in the desert outside

Vegas. They think it's the assassins,
but there's nothing traceable left.

Still no sign of the weapon.

We're investigating all the organized
anti -Castro groups we know about.

In the meantime, we've got an
international fiasco on our hands.

Many world leaders think we've been
bullying Cuba for too long, and now the

that we couldn't keep an innocent
fighter safe in our country leaves us

major political black eye.

Well,

the NSA panel still feels that we can
pull this one out of the fire through

diplomatic means. You're kidding.

You're just dying to know who would have
won that fight, aren't you?

Isn't everyone?

No.

I have made up my mind.

Fidel, you must calm down.

You want to punish the United States?

Release the Marielitos to Miami again.
That drove the President Carter crazy.

So, how long will it take to prepare
these missiles for launch?

This is insanity.

Washington, my son.

Now I will take thirds.

It is not possible, Presidente. What?
These missiles have not been maintained

since the 60s. The fuel evaporated years
ago.

Then get more. You heard him. It is
impossible.

We could use kerosene.

Kerosene? It would work. But the range
would be seriously limited.

How far will these birds fly?

200 miles. Maybe 250.

But they'd never make Washington.

Dale, you're dead.

It will be event.

Cuba just launched against us.

I thought the Russians pulled their
missiles out in 63.

For years it's been rumored they left
behind six small tactical nukes for use

against a possible American invasion.

Well, why aren't we sitting around on
our asses? Why aren't we launching a

counter -strike? Well, that's the
president's call right now, and he's

not to take that option.

Damn intern humping liberals.

We've already got patriots in the air
trying to take the Cuban missiles out.

Well, this is bull squat.

This is a perfect time to go in there
and wipe out Cuba once and for all. You

mean liberate, right, Nate?

Oh, whatever.

Okay, four down.

Two to go.

Son of a bitch.

I'll suit up.

You'll have two days before the fight.
Hopefully we can find a way to cancel

If you do that, you better put the
National Guard on alert. You're going to

two million pay -per -view subscribers
rioting in the streets.

Well, whatever happens, our mission is
to protect Teo Millar as long as he's on

U .S. soil. We've got to stop this
shooter.

Or find a way to keep Millar out of the
ring.

Hey, I've got money riding on this. If
that fight gets called off... Parker,

when have you ever won money gambling?

Don't remind me.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
four, three,

two... One.

Engage.

Stop that assassin.

Yeah, they already have an undercover
security operation in place in Vegas.

arrange to get you included.

Put Donovan on it. I want to see how
close I can get to Tao.

Maybe whoever wants him dead showed his
hand earlier.

Yeah, only this time you'll be there to
catch it.

Good thinking, Frank.

I notice you've been brushing up on your
foreign languages. I'm sure that'll

come in handy.

Yeah.

$10 ,000 worth of language tapes?

For all the global hotspots.

Hello? Hola!

Buenos dias!

Senor Hayes. General, how are you doing?
Did you get that champagne I sent you?

Very generous, sonny. Hey, you got to
enjoy a good thing while you can, right?

Yes, I am learning.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a B
-52.

There he is, y 'all. The next undisputed
middleweight champion of the world.

Everything's all right, son?

You getting what you need?

Oh, Mr. Hayes, thank you for your
hospitality.

Yeah, but you're not taking advantage of
it.

You're in Vegas now, son, the fun
capital of the world.

What are those?

Keys to your very own Lamborghini. And
Didi and Sandra here are going to give

you a tour of our fair city.

Hell, they might even take you around
the world, you ask them nice.

Mr. Hayes.

I'm afraid your city will offer too big
a distraction for someone like me.

I need to stay focused on this fight.

I don't want to let Fidel down.

We're all working no play, but I can
respect that.

But if you need anything, remember, I'm
your hookup.

Yes.

Oh,

Mr. Hayes.

Green corn.

Green corn.

For the chickens.

Hell, you got it.

Can you believe this game?

Hell,

it's my game, huh?

¿Qué te pasa, chico? Come on, fellas. I
just want to watch. I swear you won't

even... You're telegraphing your hook.

Esperense, por favor.

What do you say?

Well,

you keep dropping your chin right before
you throw your hook, and flush is going

to be all over that.

No, no, estás perfecto, chico.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Tráigalo para
acá.

How do you know this?

I only threw one hook.

Two. This gringo doesn't know what he's
talking about.

I would telegraph you the hook.

That's more than what you have told me.

Who are you?

Just a fan.

Name's Parker.

Frank B.

Frank Parker, huh?

Thank you, Mr. Parker, for your advice.

You're welcome.

Anything else that you could tell me?

Yeah. You got a minute?

If you're ever up here losing, don't
fight the guy here.

I don't understand how you could know my
problem when you could not have seen me

fight since the last Olympics.

I've just got a sense about these
things. I used to box a little myself.

I wore regional golden gloves back in
Philly.

Philly.

Philadelphia. I never really had a
family growing up.

Boxing practically saved my life.

Until I'm an orphan.

My whole family was killed in a car
accident when I was a young boy.

If you doubt he take me under his wing,
I owe him my life.

Do you really have one?

What? A life outside the ring in me.

Why?

Yeah.

You know, it's very dangerous for you to
be here right now.

It's killing me to say this, but it'll
be a whole lot safer for you if you

fight tomorrow night.

Have you seen my security?

Hmm?

It's an army.

Both Steve -O and Mr. H have promised
that I will be safe.

What if I said you'll die if you step
into that room?

Then I will say that there is something
wrong with your crystal ball.

I will win.

You can bet on it.

Me, compa.

say? Who'd you think I was?

I thought you were one of the soldiers.

Oh, no.

Who the hell are you?

I'm Raquel.

I'm Teo's sister.

Your sister's dead.

Do I look dead?

Teo's seventh birthday.

He broke a tooth on salt taffy we bought
from a vendor in the street.

That was the last time we were all
together.

What happened?

Our father was a school teacher.

He spoke up for freedom until the
soldiers took him away.

Teo was away at boxing camp.

He was already attracting a lot of
attention.

But my mother knew it wasn't safe for us
in Cuba anymore.

She arranged for passage to America for
us the next time Teo came home.

But someone informed on us.

We had to escape right away.

Leaving Teo behind.

Broke my mother's heart.

He thinks you died in a car accident.

He thinks whatever Castro wants him to
think.

When the fight was announced, I knew
this was my chance to tell him the

I came all the way from Miami, but now
I'm afraid if the soldiers find me...

I borrow this?

Where do you think you're going?

Talk to my buddy Teo. No, I don't think
you talk to the missile no more. No?

No. Hey!

Hey, hey, hey, easy on me, all right?

Come on, I'm on Teo's side. I don't
think so.

I think you're trying to confuse him.
Screw up his head for the fight.

Who are these people?

Well, that's, uh...

Lucia and Ricky and, of course, little
Ricky.

I ask you again.

Who are these people?

Where did you get this?

Look, I'm just a fight fan, all right?

National Security Agency.

So I'm a fight fan with a day job.

You think this will protect you?

Well, I was kind of hoping.

I'm always trying to help you.

No, you listen to me.

The next time we catch you around here,
we're going to chop you up. Like, what

do you call that?

Little chicken nuggets.

I'm going to watch out.

Come on.

It's Raquel.

What is this?

The truth.

Teo, please, you must listen.

My sister is dead.

That was a lie.

Our father was killed.

Our lives were in danger. We had to
flee. Why are you doing this?

I trusted you.

Fidel, you warned me. No, this is
American. Forget about it.

Rita.

Mama? You are in America now, Teo.

Everything is going to be fine.

I can't believe this.

Fidel, he was like a father to me.

Your father died in one of his prisons,
Teolito.

I know that boxing is your life.

But you must not fight tonight.

No. Not in the name of that dictator.

I got connections, Teo. I can make sure
you get to stay here with your family.

I will not fight.

Welcome to America.

Mission accomplished.

Donovan's team found the assassin?

Not yet, but Tao agreed to pull out of
the fight.

Well done, Frank.

Although I know you must be a little
disappointed.

I lived to sacrifice.

Actually, Mr. Parker wasn't going to the
fight. He promised to take me to see

the great magician Rick Thomas tonight.

He did?

He did.

I did.

Sorry, fellas, I gotta run.

Where are you going?

To see Mr. Sonny Hayes. Tao insists on
telling him this decision face to face.

What? He's been very kind to me. He will
understand.

I don't think that's a good idea.
There's going to be a lot of flack over

You better let me take care of it.

Oh, no.

No, I must tell him myself.

It's the honorable thing to do.

Tao!

My main man!

And, uh, who's the babysitter?

Now, you know you should lay off the
sugar before a fight.

Say, all right, this is my sister.

Well, uh, whatever.

Me castle, your castle, and all that...
Reptile, uh...

What you doing here?

Good news, bad news.

Good news is, Tao's gonna defect.

My mother and my sister are alive in
this country.

Well, God bless America.

What's the bad news?

Fidel, he lied to me about my family.

He killed my father.

I cannot fight for him.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's not
get hasty here. Look, you want to get

back at the man? There are other ways.

No. I have made my decision.

Who else knows about this?

No one.

Teo wanted to tell you first.

Look, you want to be a flag -waving,
weedy -box poster boy?

Then I'm all for it.

But we will deal with that manana.

Tonight, you will put on a show.

I wouldn't start throwing threats
around, Tony.

Let's not forget I am with the NSA.

Look, I don't care if you're with the
NBA. Your ass can disappear just as fast

as anybody else.

You cannot deport my family, Mr. Hayes.

They are American citizens.

Well, well, well, well, well.

Welcome to the Sonny Hayes' Immigration
Department.

And I can have all y 'all asses back in
front of Fidel quicker than you can say

green corn.

Or I could be generous and put bullets
in your heads right now. Now, do you

understand what I'm talking about?

We must fight.

And you, pretty lady, are going to be my
guest ringside until after the match

just to keep your little brother
honored.

I will not fight.

That ain't up to you, boy.

I say who wins and loses my fight.
That's the way it's always been.

And I say tonight is your night.

Look, all you got to do is show up and
look pretty.

I win, you win, and the beard wins.

Tie a couple of bronze wigs to his
coyotes and dump them in Lake Mead.

Catch your ringside, champ.

John, is something the matter?

The fight should have been called off by
now.

Has anyone heard from Parker yet? No.

God, I hope he's all right.

Well, there is one way to find out.

Hey, look at that. Two tickets to the
fight, huh?

Shall we?

I beg your pardon?

Oh, sexy accent. What is that, French?

Oh.

Okay, I'll wait.

Thank you.

I thought you said Tao wasn't going to
fight.

I ain't blackmailed. Find the shooter?

No, not yet.

Ready to rumble?

Who's here?

Yeah, he changed his plans.

Not until Teo wins.

Brown's over, General.

Angel ratted you out.

You wanted to kill Teo to provoke Castro
into doing something crazy against the

U .S. so you could get us to support a
coup of your own.

Lies. This is ridiculous.

Tell it to the beard.

Listen up, sunshine. You make a move
against Teo or his family, and I'll make

sure the FBI, NSA, IRS, and every other
three -letter organization you can think

of will be all over you like one of your
cheap suits.

Oh, and, um, the bowling team sucks.

Teo.

Teo, you gotta fight.

I won't fight with you. Don't do it for
Fidel. Do it for yourself.

For your family. For this. All right,
let's go. Come on.

Just win this thing.

I'll tell you a tale. The latter half of
the fight saw you on the ropes taking

an awful pounding. Then in that final
round, Theo, you just exploded. Can you

tell us what happened there? I would
like to dedicate this fight to me mama

my sister who is alive and living in
what I hope will be my new home, the

States of America.

You threatened my family. Look, we got
to put a little thing like that behind

us. Starting tomorrow, we are in the T
.O. Miller business, huh?

Product endorsements, websites,
ancillary rights. You are going to be

golden boy.

I don't think so.

What? I can't tell you what I really
think about you.

I can.

Yes,

it's in the jeans.

Okay, now admit it. That was exciting.

It was, uh, interesting.

See, deep down inside that girly girl, I
knew there was a little kick -ass

heart. I wouldn't go getting too cocky,
brother. Didn't you bet on flesh?

Uh -huh.

Oh, man, why is it every time I save the
world, I lose my shirt?

Come on, High Roller, let me buy you a
beer.

Thanks for doing this, Teo.

Oh, it's my pleasure, man.

It's always been a fantasy of mine.

Sparring a Vegas ring with a champ.

You're fast, man. I told you I used to
be pretty good at this.

I learned a lot of life lessons in the
old square circle.

Psychology.

Sportsmanship.

Frank.

Frank. Hey.

It's fine.

Frank, are you okay?

I'm sorry, but you telegraphed your
right hand.

It's like you opened the door to your
face.

I'm sorry, okay?
