Yeah, Mitch. What's up?

Did you get 'em? What's the deal?

We got the van with about 20 wets.

I'm asking about the coyotes.

Don't know yet.

Carter and Cox are on their trail.

You mean to tell me they got away?

Hey, I just told you I don't know yet.

Rooney, how long you been on the force?

Don't you think you can get your boys' act together?

I can't be up here in the air and down there at the same time.

Ten-hut.

We've got to get to the river before it get's too light.

Damn, son of a bitch.

He won't give up. - Get out of sight.

Looky here, a couple strays.

You missed the roundup, boys.

Oh partner - Son of a bitch!

I'm gonna get you. Now there is no sweat for him.

Move your ass.

You just opened hunting season on the Rio Grande.

Let's see who gets the trophy.

Yeah.

If you cross this river again

You're putting your life on the line.

Got it?

I got it

Had a busy night, huh? - Yeah.

Recognize him?

Nope. Didn't get a good look.

They're as good as dead.

Aguilar, five minutes. Next stop, Laredo.

I'll get the bags. - All alright.

Ah, there he is.

Hi, Uncle Willy.

Well, we made it.

Good for you.

Could have sworn it was him.

Hey, isn't that him?

You got it

A new load for you.

I don't know what you do with your shirts

Ask your cousins, Rosie.

They tried to put holes in this one.

What cousins? You don't make any sense.

Hi. Here we are.

I'm Chuck. This is my buddy Jonathan.

I thought we'd never get here.

Full watcher for interested people on the election process

Lorado attorney

Well, how was your trip?

Great for him, but I can't sleep on hamburgers and Cokes.

Two eggs over easy and some toast, please.

- Coffee?

Glass of milk.

And what will you have?

No, that's for him.

I'll have the same, plus some orange juice, an order of pancakes, a bowl of Rice Krispies

and I'll take that coffee.

OK. Thank you.

You're welcome.

You fellows from the same town?

Same stupid town.

No matter what your dad thinks. - He doesn't care.

Bullshit. He wants everyone else to be just like him.

Thank you

That's why it was up to me to get this guy out to see the world.

So he could learn about life? - Right.

You gonna teach him?

Hey, somebody has to open up his eyes.

Your eggs will be ready in a second.

Thank you

So, do you think they'll let us go with you?

You mean you want to join the force?

Yeah. What else can you do around here?

Not much.

That's for damn sure.

Well, we'll start out like you did

Join the force.

If anything else comes along that's more exciting.

You got your own business, right?

Thanks, uncle willie

By the way Mom sends her best.

Said she'll write to you.

That's real nice of her, kid.

But listen, kid.

There's some kind of misunderstanding here.

I ain't got no nephew

No sister, and no business.

But...

I can give you a hand.

What's your uncle's name?

Bryant.

Willie Bryant.

You must know him?

Yeah, sure.

He's not on patrol anymore.

Add this to the shirts, Rosie.

You stupid asshole. Why'd you have to tell him about Mitch?

Bryant say he was going to meet you here today?

He said he'll be here for sure on Thursday.

Today is Thursday isn't it?

You want to see him, right?

Yeah.

I think I know where he is.

Great

That's fine.

But I can't wear this where we're going.

Howdy.

Hey.

Kind of early isn't it?

Nope. Just about bedtime.

Here we are in Mexico.

What about that?

What's that?

Looks like a body.

It's probably a dog.

Mexicans say what floats downstream don't belong to nobody.

Not to them.

Not to us.

Well... is the puerta of bella

I didn't know acupuncture was a turn on.

What do you want?

Put that away first.

Sorry. I...

I didn't know it was you.

Say hello to your nephew.

Hi, Uncle Willy.

Yeah, uhh

Hi.

This is my friend Jonathan.

What happened?

Um--

He took a crap in a cactus patch.

I, um...

Had an accident.

Jesus

So ahh..

You getting set up OK?

Yeah. Mitch has been a lot of help.

Oh yeah?

Great.

Thanks, Mitch.

That's what we're here for.

Look, why don't you two guys go have a drink to my recovery, huh?

You take 'em.

If they want something extra tack it on.

Tell 'em it's all on me.

Hey, thanks, Uncle Willy.

He's not my son.

Ow.

How long you been here?

A couple of weeks.

I came from Atamoros' when they closed it up.

Getting ready to make the jump, huh?

What jump?

To America.

What you mean by america?

The space?

What's your name?

Engracia.

Engracia?

Yeah.

And yours?

I'm Chuck.

Chuck?

Yeah.

That's not a name.

That's just a noise.

Hello, my love.

Long time no see.

May I have one Escoces?

Sure. Have a double.

OK. Make it a double.

You don't like me?

Is he a priest or something?

The best place to learn Spanish is in bed.

Yeah.

In two hours I teach you everything you need to know.

I'm ready anytime.

Yeah, but you already know.

How do you know?

Hey, I gotta catch up.

OK, kid.

Go ahead.

Careful. She's probably got something.

20 bucks now.

Come here,

Chucka, Chucka, Chuck.

We have to be out of here in 15 minutes.

What about you?

OK, the other one.

If you wore boots like a good Texan wouldn't have no trouble.

Boots make men much handsomer.

Take them off.

Oh!, you think the boys town

Boys town?

Full coward

More like a concentration camp to me

Yeah, I guess you're in down chicken, can you leave here?

You live here?

Not the ones on the contract.

Just people like you uncle

Not my uncle

Hey, what's up?

Oh, putin' back her.

How was she? - Fantastic.

You kids always, it's great.

Did you charge you?

Why?

Because we're Bryant's guest.

We can't let her charge twice. Did you charge you or not?

Let's just forget it, come on, let's go.

A little bitch thinks she's smart.

Hey, Mitch, please, forget it, it doesn't matter.

Oh, please, just let go.

Hey!

Give the kid his money back.

You heard Bryant,

I mean Willie,

We're his guest.

I don't give that nothing.

Oh, yeah? I'll go to cash.

Ok

We'll take it in trade.

I've been keen.

Come on, get on the van

Riding herd, huh?

They day you take that hat off it's going to be crawling with alligators.

That's why I don't take it off.

I don't blame you.

Here's the report. Take a look.

Mitch, don't you think there's something strange about this?

I mean...

They brought him across the border at other places

At sunrise...

And they never took a shot at anybody.

Stakes are higher. That's all.

Why is that?

Won't you let me look into it?

Ok

They don't try to bust on yourself.

Remember,

You're still part of the forest.

Well,

Here's the man.

Next time you ought to get the pants a little tighter.

You guys are in too much of a hurry.

There's always time to join up.

We only did what you did.

Yeah.

I lost a lot of good years too.

This here is rough country out here.

It's not as tough as we are, eh, John?

We got no time to lose.

Oh, yeah?

Well then,

You might as well learn something about guns.

We already know all about 'em.

- Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Back home we did a lot of target practice.

Well

This will be a little different.

You don't expect to hit anything

with these open sights. Did you?

Well, I hear you need one of those fresh busters just to do the job. Excuse me.

Come on.

I'll show you what it'll do to a wild Havalina hog.

We don't practice on animals.

Shit.

A couple of god damn babies.

What do you do baby?

Say, bang, bang, you're dead?

Somebody will blow your ass away before you can even holler.

Hey, hold on a minute.

Let's use this as a target.

Ready when you are guys.

- You first.

Oh, go ahead.

Too bad Willy.

Nice try.

Come on, Jonathan. You can do it.

All right.

Let's try a second round.

Get out of the way.

Move it asshole.

You can pick those up with your hands.

You can tease them.

You just have to be faster than they are.

These more afraid than you are. That's good reason.

Come on, baby.

Let's see if you got the balls.

They can't do anything if they can't get a grip.

You gotta hold the head and the tail at the same time.

Come on, which one of you wants to do it

Huh?

Hey, Chuck, don't be stupid, huh?

Hey, - This guy's crazy.

All it takes

Is speed and nerves.

It's flipping.

Oh, shit.

Damn, - Come on Chuck..

I told you not to let it have a grip.

Get away.

Come on, kid.

Let's do something.

Afraid you're going to hurt the snake?

It's going to get me.

Ah, I guess you kids are still

tied to Mitch's apron strings.

These ones are 350, amigo.

These ones or these ones?

Or this one's. Not those

Ok

It's all the money I've got. You like?

Yeah, I'll take it.

What the matter, baby?

You didn't like it?

How about a smile?

Kid...

You got great taste.

She's a little slow to get started, but...

What a finish.

Hey

May I sit down?

Mmm, what happened to your hand?

Is something wrong?

Better with him than it is with me?

Ahh, him

What's so funny?

Because he asked me the same question about you.

So...

What's that?

Yor name and your noin

That's not right. Is C-H-A-C-K

Well, it's not my fault. You don't have a Christian name.

- Hey, you got boots.

Do you like 'em?

Yeah.

They are super.

I can't leave you.

I have to have you.

Don't be childish.

In a couple of days you won't even remember me.

That's not true.

I will never forget you.

Just remember to send me the money, okay?

By the way,

The beat is running awfully hot, you know?

If I do send you the money

Will you write to me?

- We'll see. - Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Then I won't send the money.

That's what I'm afraid of.

It is the first time I trust a man.

Believe it or not.

Let's make a deal.

I send you the money

And you write to me,

Ok?

OK.

Sam, Miller, with you.

Knox, Snyder, with Rooney.

Mathewson... where's Mathewson?

What about me?

You stay with us.

You're a Texan. You've seen the sights.

That's no way to start.

Hey.

Thank you.

Now we get to wait.

I'm going to step outside.

Yeah, go ahead.

Car 32 come in, please.

Morning, Mitch. This is Eddie.

Howdy

Where are you?

Out on 83 past Laredo.

OK, stay there.

I'll let you know if anything comes up.

You got it.

Stevens.

Yeah?

I forgot something.

That five letter mammal is a tapir.

T-A-P-I-R.

Well, thanks, but hell, I already had it.

The hell you did it.

Oh shit.

Don't worry. He won't get us this time.

Damn it, Mitch. Not so close.

You need your ears lowered anyway.

32, 27, they're on 83 in a yellow truck.

Stop 'em.

Let's see what kind of goodies they got for us.

Got it covered.

32, it is green.

Right. We're on our way.

Hey, Rooney.

Here we go. Do-si-so.

Come on.

What a hell with them

We got the sons of bitches.

Hold it.

You son of a bitch.

All right, Bryant, you know the routine.

Turn around.

Who? Hold it right there.

Ah, the animal lover.

I guess you prefer to practice on people, huh?

Ow.

Line up now.

Is Bryant?

What?

Is it Bryant?

Yeah, it's Bryant, but listen.

What?

There's a Mexican wounded. Maybe dead. I can't tell.

Nice shot, kid.

With Jonathan

Now follow me.

This way.

Come by to pick up your medal did you?

No

I came by to pick up my trophy.

Jesus, Mitch, what are you doing?

Take it easy. Just calm down.

Next you cowardy

Cool off man. Just cool off.

And that's you, coyote.

Chief isn't gonna like this.

Get inside.

Take care of your uncle.

Jesus.

Go to hell.

For Christ's sake, Mitch, don't give me any more

problems than I've already got.

Good eye, kid.

With the way things are going you'd be better off not having such a good eye.

Just sign this and shut up.

Why don't you get your ass out on the field

and let's see how you handle it.

My ass has been on the line and nobody ever got shot.

If this boy dies we're in for big trouble.

The Mexican consul's already called the attorney general.

And the press is going to play this up big.

Border patrol opens hunting season on Mexicans.

And just what do you want us to do about it?

For right now don't do anything.

Just keep your mouth shut.

Everybody's dismisse

Except Mitch.

Come on.

All right, let's go.

Come on.

All right, come on.

All right, you all got a quarter?

It's only 25 cents now.

Come on, man, cheer up.

You didn't break the law. nothing's going to happen.

Okay, you were right.

This is shit, man. We're leaving.

You didn't sign anything and I'll have to find a way out myself.

Sorry, friend, she's not available.

What'd you say?

You heard me.

I want to talk to you.

Hey, this girl is mine, boy.

She's been drinking with me all day.

I'll be back in a minute.

What the hell is this all about?

Listen Engracia, I want you out of here.

You don't belong in Boystown. - What?

We're leaving tomorrow. I want you to come with us.

And break my contact with the Papi John

You know what he did to get it?

Besides the police would look for me all over.

Hey, no one will look for you in America.

But you're crazy. Why would I leave?

What would I do, huh?

Don't worry.

Everything is going to work.

Look, nobody's looking. Come on, get inside. You'll never have to come back.

No. I'm not leaving.

There is nothing for me in your America.

Besides,

If I leave all this.

I have to see a priest first.

Engracia, I must have you.

I'm sorry.

We can go to the room for a while.

What happened?

I'm broke again. I spent all my money on the car.

Well,

I'll put it in your bill, OK?

OK.

Not even a phone.

Your uncle's here and you gotta lay low.

Chuck, uncle.

What are you doing? - I'm living.

Had it with the border.

You know, with a better place?

Yeah.

Home.

I don't think they're gonna let you go home.

There weird nothing to do with this.

I didn't even sign an application.

Well, it did.

Chuck

And you can't even say it was in the line of duty.

Come on.

Snap out of it. They're waiting for us. We gotta go.

Where is your partner?

With a girlfriend, I guess.

I had word from patrol agent Mitchell

that a tank truck was northbound on the highway.

He gave a command to stop the truck.

Did you know that undocumented aliens were inside the truck?

No.

No. I thought the driver was carrying contraband.

Why didn't you think that aliens were inside?

Because he didn't stop.

Where you been, boy? Playing hooky?

It seemed inconceivable to me that he would risk human life like that.

But as you see they did.

Border patrol pilot Frank Mitchell.

39 years old.

12 years of service.

Divorced.

Served as a pilot on the day of the incident.

On the night of November 7th

You give orders to shoot a tank truck traveling along Highway 83?

No.

I said it should be stopped.

Doesn't it imply the same thing?

Hardly.

MAN: Who did the shooting?

Can you identify yourself?

Snyder.

He's one of our trainees.

He's going through practice exercises

before he goes Academy next week for a period of two months.

Does a trainee have permission to shoot a firearm?

Only in self-defense.

The truth is I fired the first shot.

And?

Well,

I didn't hit the target.

Mr. Mitchell,

The smuggler Mr. William Bryant

Was a former patrol agent...

So what's happening? Are we leaving??

Heard what he said?

Then we're staying.

Yes

Didn't his arrest as a smuggler give you a personal satisfaction?

Of settling of old scores?

No, sir.

I'm a professional.

I was doing my job.

Is it also your job to punch him in the stomach when he's handcuffed?

We are not analyzing the Bryant case now.

But we are analyzing the spirit in which patrol agent Mitchell carries out his duties.

Maybe you are out to get Bryant

And it was a matter of indifference to you whether the cargo in the tank truck was

drugs or people or children.

I object.

That's right let's stick to the facts.

Mr. Mitchell, you must admit your name is almost

Always connected with these border incidents.

We're returning illegal aliens

According to mutual agreement between Mexico and the US.

If your border patrol took their job more seriously

We would have fewer of these incidents.

Are you asking for stronger repression?

I don't think this is the time for personal opinions.

What a shame.

I was just about to ask Mr. Mitchell something personal.

Go ahead.

No, let's not bother.

If all of you are through with me

Can I go?

What's Up?

I'm Schultz with the Texas Observer.

Is there anything else you want to say?

Would you mind telling me why in the hell an American law officer

has to give explanations to foreigners?

Would you repeat that for Mexican TV?

- No, I wouldn't. You mean you won't talk to us?

Get out of my face.

Hey

Ok

Are you...? - Ok

- How are you doing? OK.

Yeah - Come on

Yeah. - Ok

Where are we going?

Boystown.

Those dirty Mexicans have been fucking us long enough.

Now we're going to fuck them.

Hey, I still have to testify.

Nobody's going to ask you anything.

Or don't you want to go with a real hard ass son of a bitch?

It's just that I was there this afternoon.

What do you know?

Engracia won't mind.

The more tricks the bigger the take.

Mitch, I've really had enough today.

At 21?

Come on and get in.

But I'm broke.

We'll find a way.

Ok

Mitch, wait.

Son of a bitch.

No, no "G" like george

No, no conozco last name

But she works

The Baja

Yes in a Fabian

No

Why not Annita talk to right now, es mucho importante, pleace

Ok, no es posible

I see

Thanks

What a bastard.

You're something else, you know that?

Jesus.

You got a bad case of pussy fever, kid.

I understand 'cause

She's got something special.

You can't keep her to yourself

So why not share her with a friend?

It's got a...

Nice kind of a ring to it.

Like two buddies having a drink together.

Yeah.

But it'll be the last one 'cause I'm ready to close.

Just leave the bottle and go on home.

We're not going to get laid.

We might as well get drunk.

To Engracia.

And us.

You know what I like about her?

She doesn't like to do it, but she's a real pro.

You know she

starts out by faking it

And she just gets caught up in it.

Starts to liking it.

Liking it and it

Loving it.

At least

that's the way she is with me.

What's she like with you, kid?

What's the matter?

You don't want to talk about it?

Well, you're wrong.

That's the best part of it.

Talking about it afterwards.

Not for me it isn't.

Well, you're still a rookie.

Gotta go.

Hey,

Come on back.

We still got a bottle to finish.

I want to send a telegram.

Yes to Mexico.

Same number.

No, I don't know her last name. She works at El Papillon.

OK.

I want to marry you.

That's it.

No, hold on.

I will love you forever.

Yes.

Signed Charles

Mathewson.

You've got to do something to deserve it first.

I mean...

It's almost time to pick up the body.

Why did you have to make it so early?

It's quiet, Castle.

Less trouble that way.

Excuse me.

So what'd the council want?

Nothing special.

He's just playing his part.

Yeah?

What does he want?

First money.

They're asking for a million dollars to settle with the boy's family.

Well, they're just asking.

You know when we first started out...

Everything was different then. I know that. But things have changed.

You're no fool. You know the whole thing is political.

And second?

Your head.

Why me?

They want you transferred.

That's why.

I wasn't even on the road that night.

Yeah, but you got a reputation.

So?

Is that a crime?

I'm just telling you what they want.

You didn't sell me out did you?

We gotta make them happy.

Once we settle with the boy's family you're going to be right back on the job.

I mean, hell, take a couple of weeks off. I wish I could.

They don't want something else?

Oh, there's a third condition, but it doesn't concern you.

They're not going to get it anyway.

You know you and your secrecies and your politics, you're fucking up the whole country.

Mitch, it's exactly that kind of attitude that constantly gets you in trouble.

Yeah, well when you work it out with your Mexican buddies give me a call.

M-I-N-E.

You are correct.

No, I won't.

You mean you won't talk to us?

Get out of my face.

R-O-N.

That is incorrect.

Let's go to your room.

I don't feel like going in there.

I don't blame you

But I don't feel like being with such a famous man.

Hey.

What happens out there?

Ain't got nothing to do with you and me.

Look, let's have a drink and talking over

Sorry, I'm leaving

Try and true

We had a moment's Annita

I'm get married

I said no.

We got plenty to talk about you and me.

Who told you to come into my room?

Don't get angry.

You're much too pretty.

But you're going to leave for good?

Yes.

But now we're not going.

Then I suppose you bring me the money, no?

No, I came back for a much better reason.

You know that.

Yes, but you have to pay me first.

OK?

Even today?

What a way to start.

That's all?

Anyway,

I don't think we are going to do anything today.

What do you mean?

I really shouldn't. I'm going to be married.

To a very rich man

From Chicago.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

He's crazy for me.

Read it.

You're nuts.

You're happy because I marry another man?

You're funny.

The other guy is me.

You?

Yeah.

Chucka, Chucka, Chuck

And Charles Mathewson...

The same person.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why you make fun of me?

Make fun of you?

Yeah.

Engracia

You're the one who's been giving me a rough time.

Listen,

I love going to bed with you,

But it's not enough.

I need to have you.

I want you.

Are you really going to marry me?

How else am I going to get you out of here?

Hey, kid.

What's this bullshit story I hear about you marrying Engracia?

Yeah, I'm going to do it.

Making a big mistake, kid.

There ain't no changing a whore.

If you weren't so drunk, Mitch, I'd get you for that.

You are cunt struck.

I'll admit she's a fancy fuck,

But you can't marry every whore you go to bed with.

Son of b...

You bit off more than you can chew, kid.

I pity you, Mitch. You sick bastard.

Put down...

It's all over.

Le's go

You little piece of shit.

God damn it, let go of me.

Let go!

Hey!

Where's my hat?

Come on, Chuck.

The rings.

Hey, the rings.

Come on, man, hurry it up.

H.

E.-W.

S.

R.

N.

Engracia, sweet heart

Morning.

US citizen?

Thank you. What about you?

Is this the only document you have on her?

Yeah.

Why don't you follow me into the office for a moment?

Charles Mathewson?

Yes.

And you and Miss Engracia Gomez just got married?

Is that right?

Yes.

The marriage is perfectly legal, but, uh...

But what?

Mr. Mathewson,

You're a border patrol trainee and according

You cannot bring into the United States,

As your wife,

a Mexican woman under contract in the zone.

You need a special waiver.

You ought to know that.

Let me talk to the officer in charge here.

If you like.

It's not going to change a thing.

Hey, look, things have gotten a little botched up, OK?

It's all confusion.

Why didn't you tell me you were

Sure I did. I must have.

No, you didn't.

And if they don't like me I don't like them too.

Mr. Mathewson.

Look,

We'll talk about it later, OK?

Just hold on.

Where's Engracia?

She went that way.

Wait, where are you going?

Leave me alone.

I don't want to see you anymore.

You're a liar.

I want to be with my people.

Don't be a fool.

Have you gone crazy?

Hey, break it up.

Break it up.

Get off.

Come on, get off of him.

It's OK.

Chuck, come on. We gotta get back there in 10 hours.

I'm not going back to the Academy.

I won't join those bastards.

You know they got us by the balls.

We're stuck in the border patrol.

I can't leave without my wife.

Muchas gracias.

How much do I owe you?

Look who's over there.

So they satisfied that condition.

They've been laid off,

But still keep looking for us.

I think he wants something else.

Real silver, madam?

- No, no, no No?

And you?

Do you want something?

No.

Silver from Mexico?

Sure.

Sit down.

What's the problem?

They wouldn't let you back in Boystown?

I have to get a divorce first.

Looks like we're both on the team.

But how long do you think they'll let you pick up guys off the street?

The Zulies can play rough.

Don't worry about it, eh?

I do.

If you treat me nice

I can get you back in the club.

They made a deal.

You heard from Chuck?

I don't want to talk about it.

He's a good kid.

He just has to grow up.

So, why didn't he tell me he works with the migra

Well,

People don't exactly love us.

I guess he figured you...

Wouldn't think he was so adorable.

I don't.

Listen,

Somebody has to do the dirty work.

For instance,

You don't like me,

But I pay you good.

Don't you get a certain satisfaction out

of doing something you don't like

and knowing you do it better than anybody else?

No one

So pull up the letter

My father

Forget me

Your all a tree there for

And

It must been a real good mood

Hey, I got some important business in Mexico. I gotta go down there this weekend.

With your car in Mexico?

It's been old time

Not if we take turns.

It's your business. Not mine.

All right, I'll go alone, but I'll need some bucks.

What, do I look rich to you?

Know, but you got the extra check.

Mathewson.

You're not paying attention.

Can you give us the main points of the 1898 Immigration Act?

I'll have to refresh my memory, sir.

Well,

We have a nice long weekend coming up.

So why don't you prepare a report on it for next...

Tuesday?

Do you like it?

I want to talk to you.

What do you want?

I said I want to talk to you.

She's my wife.

I thought I'd never see you again.

And I didn't expect to see you back in Boystown.

Well...

Here is safer.

Engracia...

Listen to me.

You and I are not guilty of anything.

We're not going to let all this shit of Boystown and the border

Destroy our happiness.

Hey man, wake up.

Get a little tired of this crowd.

I'll get back to the Academy.

Whatever that needs flavor over 24 hours.

You can't spare any time. Otherwise we'll never get there.

That's a couple hours. I don't want to go out there looking like this.

Back again.

You guys are fast, huh?

You got it.

There's the bathrooms here. There's their tiles.

You need anything ring the bell, Ok?

Who are yours?

Listen, Jonathan.

I don't think we should go on sharing a room.

It cost too much money to have to roll.

I know, but I'm tired.

And I don't like this place.

What's wrong with here?

People come here just to get a quick lay.

I don't want to be getting any funny ideas about us being together.

What?

I know you're getting to be a real pain in your ass.

Hey, wait.

It's in here.

You rat. You know, you're really messing with me.

Now I'm an accessory to smoke on a Mexican cross reporter.

Do we get seven years for that?

No, you don't not have to cut your number open to book.

Give me a break, will you?

You're running my career.

Career?

Since one of this job means so much to you.

Get out of here.

How are you going to... - Get out of here?

Welcome to America.

Come on, you gotta hurry up.

Listen, I've been thinking.

We'll rent an apartment near the Academy.

Then I can be with you on weekends.

It's only for three weeksand

And I'll ask for an assignment where no one knows us.

What do you think?

Wha.. What?

I love you.

You want to repeat that?

I love you.

Oh god.

I can't believe she finally said it.

She finally said it.

Hey.

L-G-E-E-N. That is correct.

Baby,

You got troubles and you don't even know it.

So you finally made it to America.

You know,

Kid hasn't used his brains once.

Brings you to the cheapest place

In the nearest town.

Go away, Mitch.

And now what?

You're going to sit here and wait until somebody finds out your wetback

And they ship you back across the border?

I said go away.

I'm a married woman now and this is my home.

Fucking home.

You don't even know how to use this fucking thing.

How long do you think he's going to stay married to a Mexican whore?

I don't want to hurt you.

I like you.

You know that.

Why can't it be the way it was?

Go away, Cabron!

Now, now.

OK.

But if I were you I would think about it.

When the border patrol was formed 60 years ago

The motto they adopted then still rings true today.

Simply put,

Their motto was on honor first.

Honor to your country.

Honor to her principles.

Honor to your fellow man.

Honor the country whose borders you are protecting.

Honor the principles which have made her the bastion of freedom.

Honor the equality of all men and women

Whether white, brown, or black,

Citizens, immigrants, or aliens.

The border patrol from its humble beginnings has had a long,

Colorful, and proud history.

It expects the best from its officers.

It is a tradition of the patrol for each officer to meet the highest

Professional standards, courage and humanity.

The border patrol is in charge of guarding some 8,000 miles

Of America's international boundaries.

Few officers

Realize...

To our neighbors in the south and north...

Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you. We're just checking out a complaint.

Would you show us some personal identifications?

He works with you.

He's in the Academy.

He'll be here very soon.

We know.

Just pack a small bag ma'am and come with us.

We will be in touch with your husband.

We have another fine class of professionals.

30 young men from many backgrounds.

All dedicated to maintain,

Uphold

The dignity and honor of the service.

N-O-R.

These young officers about to graduate and enter the field

Are part of that proud tradition

That began more than half a century ago in El Paso, Texas.

The border patrol was first...

Chuck!

Hey!

What a surprise. You sure have grown up.

Hear that?

I can't believe my eyes.

Oh, here.

It's from your mom. She's very happy as we all are.

It's your cheesecake.

How are you, Reverend Snyder?

Chuck.

Well, I was about to leave.

I must report immediately. My car's really on its last legs.

Very well, but before Jonathan's has something to do.

You've grown up together and you're starting out together.

Let us pray.

May I ask God to bless you

And pray that he grant you

Success and fulfillment

As officers of peace.

In Jesus' name, amen.

Patrolman Mathewson report to the director's office.

Excuse me. - Patrolman Charles Mathewson.

Let me make this clear.

I'm not in charge of your case.

I'm merely informing you that you are accused

Of smuggling aliens

And that you now must go on suspension without pay.

Does this mean you're quitting?

You can take it as you want.

Don't play games with me

I can get you keep out of the service for that a long

You committing a crime

I have to wait to results of the investigation

Yes, Sr.

Anything else Sr.

It's OK.

I'm here.

You didn't think I'd let you down.

No.

But I was afraid they'd hit you or put you in jail.

It wouldn't matter.

I'd always come back for you.

No.

Then I would never see you again.

I don't get it.

How'd they find where we live so fast

And that you were there?

Did they say anything?

No.

Chuck.

Big surprise, huh?

Yeah.

How did you, uh...

Ask the magician.

You were the third condition.

That's all.

Not tonight. Thanks.

Yeah.

Since your friend screwed me up I can't cheat at cards anymore.

OK.

What are you going to do now?

Wait for the trial I guess.

What else can I do?

You and me sure don't have the same blood, kid.

They fucked him over.

It wasn't they.

It was he.

Wouldn't let his wife into the country.

Deported her.

Arrested him.

He's still going to go back.

Don't you think

You can find anything here?

Sure

This is the real land of opportunity,

especially for a gringo.

Maybe we can help you if you help us.

The cards, gentlemen.

Things look different from here don't they?

All these people want is to go to the states

and make a decent living.

I see nothing wrong with that.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

No, no, kid.

The idea is you draw attention to one point in the river

While we work another point that's all.

Provide cover?

Yeah, that's right.

We deal in people and goods.

Poor old, Mitch, he always goes to the bait.

Yeah, but I'm still with the border patrol. It could be dangerous for me.

Nah, you'll be all right.

You just stay on this side and keep us posted, that's all.

Nice girl.

Did you ever think we'd end up as uncle and niece, huh?

So long, kid.

Did you see it?

Huh?

200,000 for a Mexican boy.

So how much is our trip?

Paperboy.

Tonight we're going bear hunting.

Well, well, I heard a wetback.

Well, well

I heard a wetback.

Car 40, who am I talking to?

Hoover.

Where are you?

On 83 near Santa Santo.

There's group at Las Pasos.

Get over there. - Right, Mitch.

Stevens?

What's up, Mitch?

Drive to 83 and keep in contact

We're going to get our ducks lined up. - Ok

Watch this, a little night swim?

Mitch is back

I guess to patrol car ran away

So are we.

Not again.

Get out and push it.

Hang on. I'm coming

Mitch, it's me!

It's me!

Bastard!

Hold on we each other

Kepp moving

Hold on to me.

Come on.

I'll help you

Hang on.

Don't worry. We're gonna make it

Come on you son of a bitch.

It's all right.

A few more feet.

Hang on.

Hold it right there.

Chuck.

Chuck, you hear me?

We made it.

Chuck?

There

Would you do me a favor?

Tell Engracia not to go back to Boystown.

Chuck.

Hi.

Hi.

How you feeling?

I don't want to think about it.

That's good.

Can I buy you a drink?

I don't work here anymore.

OK.

Let's go.

That's my girl.

That's my girl.

You don't need him.

Chuck.

I'm writing

To you

So

You will not

Worry

About me

It was

A danger

To our happiness.

I have

Thrown...

T-R-O-W-N. Wrong. Try again.

Thrown

Into

The

Rio Grande.

As American's

Say

What goes downstream

Belongs to nobody

My love for you

F-O-R-E-V-E-R.

Right.
