Previously on The Cleaning Lady.

Nadia says you haven't been answering some calls.

I need you handling that money.

I need $2,000,000 to get the hell out of here. Takes a lot to bribe a judge.

- I want a piece of the gun business. - I can't speak for my husband.

Yet here you are, negotiating his loan.

What about starting your own business?

Having a clinic to help people, that's not gonna happen.

We just need to get him out of jail.

It's all here.

What's Maya doing on a suspect board?

When you were taken off the case, we lost her. She's dealing for Cortez now.

Then we have to do something about that.

I just found a man at the bottom of the stairs, he looks like he fell.

Time to take your medicine, Luca.

- Luca, what are you doing? - I'm going to call daddy.

Okay. Come on here.

I need you to understand something, my love.

That daddy is not gonna come back. He's gone.

And I wish you could call him again.

Is he gonna be gone forever?

I'm sorry, my love.

Even if it's... if we can see him again,

I know his spirit will always be with us, okay?

Just know, it's just far from this world.

And it's just... he just chooses to float in any places he wants.

I think he's on Saturn.

You think? I think so, too.

I bet he's up there watching over you, just like we're watching over each other.

It's just you and me. Here. On this planet.

- I love you, mommy. - I love you, too.

- God. - Are you okay?

No, I'm not.

- I've never seen Fiona so down. - We should cheer them up.

You know, ladies, this job ain't much fun.

But, whenever we're having a bad day, our sister Fi always says,

- "You know what time it is?" - "Time to have a little fun."

Samentha, are you okay?

- Oh, my God, Samentha. - What's wrong with her?

She's diabetic. But she needs sugar. Give me soda, juice, bring something.

- From where? - Anywhere.

There aren't any drinks. The caterers took everything.

- Thony? - I don't know.

- Here. - Yes, that's great.

We're gonna sit you up. One, two, three.

We got you.

- All right. There you go. Can you open? - Yes.

Okay?

THE CLEANING LADY

- So good to finally meet you, Arman. - Robert, you as well.

Nadia, always a pleasure.

This calls for celebration, don't you think?

Thank you, Robert.

Robert, I appreciate the loan. It got me out of a bind.

- But there was a mi sunderstanding. - Is that right?

When I agreed to give you a part of my husband's business as collateral

I hadn't spoken Arman first.

Yeah, the collateral won't be necessary.

You have the full amount of the loan paid this week.

Everyone is confident the horse they beat on will win, until it doesn't.

Without Hayak, do you really think your business will be the same?

It was Arman who grew that business into what it is today.

We have a reliable system in place. But none of Hayak's capital.

Without that, it's going to be difficult to rebuild.

That's where I could come in.

That won't be necessary, Robert. Thank you.

Understood.

But in case you hit some bumps along the road, the vig is 320,000 due Friday.

And every Friday after that until the debt is paid.

Like I said before, Robert, you'll have 1.6 million paid in full

by the end of this week.

I didn't notice Vinny gave me something different.

Vinny gave you this?

I can't afford to buy anywhere else. I don't have insurance.

Okay. I wanna cut this in smaller doses, and then I'm gonna go talk to Vinny

because he needs to watch what he's doing.

What the hell is this? We have to be out of here in 20 minutes.

Samentha almost went into a diabetic coma. I mean, we had to help.

- Samentha, you okay? - Yeah.

Good. Then get to it.

'Cause if I lose this contract, I have to fire you.

- You can't do that. - She needs to go home and rest.

Twenty minutes, ladies. Chop, chop.

What is wrong with you? She could have died, and that's the way you treat her?

Here we go. Just do us a favor.

Fiona, shut your trap and get back to work. Or you're fired.

That's not gonna happen because I quit!

Again? How many times this month? See you tomorrow.

No. She's not coming back, and neither am I. We both quit!

Yeah. We're opening up our own cleaning business.

What makes you think you could do that?

Because we're bad ass bitches

who deserve better than putting up with a jerk like you. Who's with me, ladies?

It's about damn time.

So, have fun cleaning, Alonzo. Chop, chop.

I can't believe we quit! We finally quit.

Crap.

We quit. I mean, for real. We can't go back, right?

No, we can't. But, Fi, it's gonna be okay.

Yeah. But it's not just us.

It's Samentha, it's Nina, it's Roxy. They quit because of us.

- Because of you, Fi. - What?

Because you spoke the truth. And that's a good thing.

Vinny, you give Samentha wrong dose of insulin.

- You almost killed her. - What the hell are you talking about?

You have a responsibility.

Do you know the difference between regular insulin and U-500?

- Life and death that's the difference. - I give people what they ask me for.

She needed insulin. I gave her insulin. I'm no doctor.

You need to be careful. People don't know how to self-medicate.

I don't need you telling me how to run my business, okay?

I've got enough problems. I don't have Luca's meds. I get... I got other stuff.

What? You said you had them when I called.

I tried. But I got supply chain issues.

What do you mean?

My guy who runs meds across the border just got busted.

Great.

When will you gonna get more?

Well, you got the last of it. All the other sellers are out, too.

But, my son needs his anti-rejection meds. He can't run out.

My shipment is stuck in Tecate. It could be a few weeks.

No more insulin or immunosuppressants till I figure it out.

If he doesn't take those meds, he could die from liver failure.

Don't worry, Edgar. I got you, okay? I'm in talks with a supplier.

As soon as I restock the inventory, I'll let you know. Okay.

Presidential Rolex. We'll only getting a fraction of what it's worth.

Yeah, I know, but the appraiser said he'd pay cash.

You sure you can't convince Edgar to front us for the guns?

Yeah. Everyone's a bit jumpy right now.

What if Robert was right and no one wants to deal with us anymore?

But we still have our main supplier at Second Defense, okay?

We sell the guns, pay back the loan, and we get a freedom back.

- No, no, no, no, no. No, not that one. - No, Arman.

No, not that one. I know how special it is to you.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

I love you to pieces.

But everything else must go today.

What the hell do you want?

Hey, is it vintage Caddy, still up for grabs, too? That's more my style.

Get the hell out of my property.

Like even though you managed to waltz out of prison, old habits die hard, Arman.

I give you six months max before you're back behind bars.

Let that be your friendly federal PSA.

But in case you do try,

I've made sure that you won't be able to buy or sell a bullet in this town again.

All I need is one.

Aunt Titi, I tried to wake up Luca from his nap, but he won't wake up.

- How long has he been slept? - Like, two hours.

Hey, baby. Luca.

- I am tired. - You are tired, my love? Okay.

You're very hot, too.

102. Okay. Mommy is gonna give you more medicine.

What can I do?

Methylprednisolone insulin under the sink.

Jaz, can you grab the stand as well?

Okay. Let's listen to your lungs.

Mommy is gonna give you an Epinephrine shot.

And we're gonna start IV.

- It's gonna hurt, just for a moment. - What's wrong with him?

He's jaundiced. His body is rejecting liver.

That's good. Good. Very good.

Thank you.

Jaz, you keep him company while I insert the IV, please?

- I think he's already asleep. - Let's do this.

Is Luca gonna be okay?

I need to get those immunosuppressants from Vinny to keep him stable.

If it doesn't get better, he could lose his liver.

- And then what, another transplant? - I can't think about that right now, Fi.

Things need to change. It shouldn't be this hard for Luca to live.

And people like Samentha deserve better than having to buy from Vinny's trunk.

I just need to find a way to get those meds, that's all.

- Thony. - Hey.

I was just about to head out, but I have time for a drink if you do.

- Yeah. Yeah. I can't stay long, though. - Okay.

- You look better. How do you feel? - Free.

How's Luca?

That's why I'm here. His medications are stuck in Mexico.

I need to get them across the border.

His body is rejecting the liver. We don't have much time.

- Do you think Bosco could help? - Bosco works for Sin Cara.

It's just a couple of boxes. Please, Arman.

You know he needs his meds to stay alive.

Other people need meds, too.

I'll call him after I meet my military supplier.

You're dealing guns again? I thought you said it was one last score.

That was before I owed 1.6 million to Kamdar.

If I don't pay this debt, it's my life on the line.

The gun business is all I know.

Just one big sale and I can get out from under this guy.

I just need cash now.

- You can help me sell meds. - I know nothing about that.

But I do. If you can convince Bosco to bring them across the border,

and we get a bigger supply, you can make money and help people.

There's an opportunity here, and it can benefit both of us.

Bosco won't stick his neck out for a side hustle. Like that's too dangerous.

I'll be in touch after I hear from Bosco. And I'll make sure he gets Luca's meds.

- All right? - Thank you.

Hey, Murray, tell me I got good news.

We're cancelled? No, that can't happen. Come on, man.

Okay. When the contract ends, just call us.

Yeah?

Hello. Are you looking for cleaning service?

No. I'm looking for you, and your son.

Who are you?

I'm the motel manager of the Double Nickel.

And after that accident the other night, cops, they've been poking around,

asking questions, and spooking my live-ins.

- How did you find me? - I...

I had a buddy trace in plates. I got 'em off the cams after your friend lied to me.

You know the one who told me to call the cops?

Yeah. But the police said there are no security tapes.

I mean, not that they know about. You know what else I got out of those cams?

Your son killing that guy.

And unless you compensate me for my lost business,

I'm gonna have to take that footage to the police. I'm thinking 10K.

- It sounds fair, right? - I don't have that kind of money.

- I'm just a cleaning lady. - I'm sure you figure it out.

Otherwise, I got to call the cops.

You got until the end of the week. Tick tock.

Good news, your temperature is dropping.

- Luca is getting better. How do you feel? - Still tired.

Okay. Well, your body is still healing,

so you carry on sleeping, okay, peanut?

All right.

Fi, the Methylprednisolone is working.

We just need to keep monitoring him.

Fi? What's wrong? Hey.

The manager from the motel came to the house just now.

What? How?

He was tracking my plates or something, Thony.

He said he has a video, and unless we pay him 10 grand, he's turning us in.

Did you see the video?

No. No. But why would he say he has one, if he doesn't?

I don't know. Maybe he want some money?

I didn't see any security camera there. He could be lying.

He knew it was Chris who pushed Marco.

He didn't know that when you asked him to call 911,

which means he found out after.

Thony has a video. He threatened to call the cops if we don't pay him.

- When? - By the end of the week.

What... where are we gonna get that kind of money?

Hey, I'll figure it out, okay? But, I have to go.

Arman has Vinny's drugs. I need to pick them up now.

You don't tell Arman about Chris, okay?

This is our family, and our business.

I knew he had a penchant for rule-breaking, Miller,

but rifling through my office? Not cool.

Hey, my bad. I just got nostalgic for the case I spent, what, two years building?

You mean destroying?

From what I heard, you messed up so bad, Russo benched you.

All right. Now, this may be hard for you to understand,

seeing as you sleep with a field guide under your pillow.

But in the real world,

sometimes you've gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet.

You know what I mean?

Those cowboy antics may have worked for you in the past, or maybe not,

considering you were booted off the case.

You know, last I checked, the FBI doesn't hand out participation trophies,

so when you're ready to solve this case, you just let me know. All right?

You know, this used to be my office.

Yup. Yeah. Look, the Feds are always watching.

Yeah, that's why we have to be careful.

But come on, Bryce, I have a buyer in line.

You really gonna leave that kind of cash on the table? Just...

Come on, forget those idiots. We don't want their business, anyway.

You know what? We'll find another supplier.

We have none, Nadia.

I reached out to all our contacts. Everybody knows the Feds are onto me.

I'm done with the gun business in this town.

Again, that's it. It's over.

We sold everything to make this deal work. I have nothing left.

We both came from nothing and we became something.

And we'll do it again.

Yeah.

What are those boxes doing there?

It's medicine from Mexico.

For Thony.

For Thony?

So while I'm running around hocking pieces of our lives,

you're seeing Thony behind my back?

It's not like that. The medicine is for her son so he can live.

Unless they help us save our lives, I don't care what they're for.

We're supposed to be finding ways to make money, not spend it.

Thony thinks there might be a way for us to make money

if we manage to get more meds across the border.

Do you expect me to go into business with your cleaning lady?

You're the one who ran to your ex-boyfriend begging for money.

You had no problem doing that.

And what was I supposed to do, Armando?

Let you rot in jail? Get beaten to death?

It wasn't Thony who got you out of jail, it was me.

- And that money saved your life! - Well, now, it's killing me.

- Nadia. - No.

Nadia. Hey. We're running out of options here.

We have to do whatever it takes to get out of this mess.

It's all right.

What's going on here? These meds belong to other people.

Thony, sit down.

The gun deal didn't work out,

so we're gonna have to find another way to pay back the loan.

I told Nadia about your idea.

Please tell us about your brilliant business plan.

How much do these sell for on the street?

Medicine in Mexico can cost about 90% less than here.

What about Oxy, Xanax? Things we can sell on this strip?

No, no, no, no. I didn't bring drugs here to sell on the street.

They're for people who need them who can't afford that kind of money.

Every business needs to make a profit, even your little charity.

Calm down!

Thony, Nadia's right. If you wanna help people,

sometimes you have to off-set that with something that actually makes money.

I think I'm gonna do this myself

because I am not selling addictive drugs on the street.

Thony. Hey, hey. Nothing's been decided yet.

You just have to see things from where we're coming from.

We need to find a way to make money fast.

Listen to me then, because I know the medications that people need the most

and the ones that are gonna make the biggest profit.

So you're still gonna make money.

The only way this works is if we work together.

The boss.

How are you, brother?

Tired, the way you've been running me around.

Basco.

But guess that's what happens when you got the ladies running you around.

- Bro! What happened to your face? - Oh, stop.

Tell them to hit you where it doesn't show.

Alright.

Let's go.

Is this what you had in mind?

Blood pressure meds. Antibiotics...

. And immunosuppressants for Luca.

This is incredible. Thank you. Thank you, Basco.

Hey. Thanks, man.

We'll get you a cut as soon as we sell these.

We know the kind of risk you're taking with Sin Cara.

Fi!

- Did you get Luca's meds? - Enough to last for a few months.

And in the van is Samentha's insulin,

some more meds for the clinic, and some leftover to sell.

Yes!

So it's your shipment, plus a little more.

What else? What do you have?

Not so fast. You'll get your shipment plus what your customers want first.

But you'll have to put me in touch with all the buyers I know.

And you'll get 10% cut. I have to move these fast.

Let's do it.

- Is it enough? - No, it's not.

- You sold everything? All of it? - Yeah.

How much more do you need?

Even after everything we pawned, we're still 58K short.

I know this wasn't gonna work.

- Can you ask for more time? - No, it's too late.

What's Arman gonna do?

He'll figure something out. This is to protect Chris.

Thanks, Thony.

I hate that all this cash is going to that scumbag manager.

We're not gonna give him the whole 10 grand.

- We're gonna negotiate a price and... - No! We can't risk that, okay?

I just wanna give him what he asked for and be done with it!

Okay. I just want that tape of Chris back.

Okay. Okay.

It's Garrett.

- Hey. - Hey. Thony, Fiona.

- Well, come in. - Thank you.

What brings you here?

- I need you to come with me. - Why?

Fiona, can you give us a minute?

Wait. Is this about my brother's investigation?

No.

Okay. Fi. Okay.

- All right. - It's fine.

We'll go there once I'm done with this.

What's going on?

I had a CI on another case, but she's in trouble and I need your help.

Don't you have FBI agents to help you with that?

Technically, I'm not on the case anymore, which is why I need you.

Garrett, I'm not doing this. I told you. I was done after Hayak.

I thought you would say that.

So I had my tech department pull security footage from cash points and banks

where Arman is transferring the crypto.

Even with all those wigs and sunglasses, I'm gonna guess it was Fiona.

And when we confirm that, which we will,

your sister-in-law will be in jail or deported

for aiding and abetting a criminal.

Is that how you wanna play it? Because I'm down.

Didn't think so.

This is Maya. Yeah? And this is a cloning device.

I'm gonna drop you off around the corner from Clergy,

it's a bar where Maya deals.

You put the phone next to hers, you push the volume down button twice,

it'll clone her phone in 90 seconds. Here. Here.

How do I get close enough to her to do that?

I'm sure you'll find a way.

And it's kind of like a goth crowd, so dress accordingly.

I'll wait in the car.

- There you go. - Thanks.

Your horse didn't come in.

There's more money coming in. It's just a matter of time.

No such thing in my business.

When you're late, there has to be another form of payment.

Robert,

can't you see we're doing everything we can.

Nadia.

Okay. One time offer.

There's someone else who's late on his payment.

If you can extract it from him, Arman, we're square for the week.

What are you asking, Robert? That he break kneecaps like a street thug?

No one's suggesting anything of the sort.

I thought Arman was a skilled negotiator.

So prove it. Negotiate.

- Yeah. - Marvelous.

So name, address.

There you go.

And just one more thing.

While you're gone, Nadia can hang out here for a drink, as collateral.

It's fine.

So while we're waiting,

I have a bottle of Mendoza I've been saving for a special occasion.

No. No, no, no. We got to go now. Thony, just...

Hi! This is Thony de la Rosa. Please leave a message. Thank you.

And this will keep you pumping all night.

I have aspirin. It can help with the swelling.

Wait.

What?

You should check. It's pretty smudged.

- Dammit. Is it that bad? - Yeah.

I could help.

I walked into a cabinet. Such a klutz, right?

So when did you start working here?

They've never had a bathroom attendant before.

I only do it for tips. I mean, it's not much but it helps.

- Who let you back here, Ray or Vicky? - It was Ray.

There is no Ray here. So the hell sent you?

No one!

- Is it Kamdar? Did he send you? - No.

Garrett?

He's just worried about you. He wants to know that you're okay.

You can tell him to back the hell off.

And stop sending people like you into place he shouldn't be.

Are you Frank Elway?

Give me what you owe and I'll walk away.

Tell Kamdar I haven't got it.

I don't wanna hurt you.

- You're seriously gonna hit an old man? - Yeah. I've done worse.

You don't know what it's like to have it all taken away.

Don't hurt my son.

Your dad doesn't have enough to pay the loan.

What about you?

Wait! Stop! Please. I have it. I'll pay it, okay? I'll pay it.

Hello? Anyone here?

Screw it. You're not getting my money.

Holy crap. You're a perv.

All right. There you are. You stay right there.

- You still follow football? - What do you think?

Mexico's looking pretty knackered these days.

Do you think it's because of the loss to Brazil?

It's because the manager is going through a divorce.

I don't think they're gonna win another game if they don't fire him.

I can see some things about you haven't changed. So what's your bet?

Total goals, under 2.5. Total corners, over 9.5, First goal, I'd say Pepe.

He's walking on air since he married that supermodel.

And for the moneyline...

the game ends in a draw.

Yup. That's still the same girl that I fell in love with.

Well, look at that.

Great minds think alike.

Salud!

Well done, Arman.

So you wanna watch your kid?

I want you to delete it.

I will. If you got my money.

I'm not gonna give you anything until you get rid of the video, please.

Are we really gonna play this game?

Here's all of it.

- Now, delete it. - All right.

How about we say you bring another 10 grand every month

and I won't release the footage?

What? No!

You're not really in a position to negotiate.

How about I tell the police about your pervy videos?

What do you think they'll think when they find

you videotaping guests without their permission?

So now you're threatening me?
