You can't fi nd out on you r own ?

B ig loads , we I I ke contai ners.

S mal ler loads I nto South F lorida , we do go-fast boats.

So , what's the weig ht?

F I rst, let's tal k log istics . O kay.

You pick u p a load , you fly it I n the hole , we tel I you the d rop poi nt,

and ou r people then move it on u p the road.

N ow, not so fast. People at the d rop poi nt are ou r people , not you rs.

You know, so there's no tweakers ,

dopers , fi rst-ti mers , people we don't know.

They d id n't do ti me with us , they ai n't doi ng cri me with us.

O nce we pick u p the load , the next ti me you hear from us

it' I I be a date , ti me , and a place.

Li ke , "There's a 18-wheeler I n a parki ng lot

I n north M iam I with the keys I n the ig n ition. "

You pick it u p , you d rive away. S mooth , that's how we do it.

So , when you looki ng to move it?

N ever.

'Cause how you d rop loads , I don't I I ke , so maybe th is don't work.

Then it don't work.

Red I ig ht, g reen I ig ht, J osé.

They also cal I me Coch I Loco.

That means "crazy pig. "

'Cause I ru n secu rity and cou nteri ntel.

I get people to tel I me what they don't ever want to say.

And I have eyes everywhere.

That part of what I do , you never want to fi nd out about.

Other people negotiate money, and go and no go.

Yes , no , maybe so.

N ot me.

So , what the hel I are we tal ki ng to you for?

I had to lay my eyes on you.

Why is that?

To see if you go meet the Man.

And ?

You seem okay.

B ut h I m ,

I don't I I ke how he looks.

Do you want to fuck my partner, or do you want to do busi ness with us?

'Cause I don't g ive a sh it how you th I n k he looks.

Wait by the phone I n the hotel.

You get a cal I , or maybe you don't.

And then you can piss off back to where you come from.

Yero said N ew York th roug h South F lorida.

Then th is load does not go to the M iam I g rou p.
