There's something I have to tell you.

You...

You didn't have this mole before.

You should get it checked out,
it's horrible.

What's this?

I tripped while I was out running.

No way.

I guess God didn't want us
to exercise yesterday.

I want to be with you.

Wow.

It's just...

And you...

No, don't worry about Verónica.

I talked to her. It's over.

I made a decision recently.

I want to do something
that really matters.

Whether that be in politics or...

Or something like that.

I've been thinking
about leaving the embassy too.

You're not leaving the country, are you?

Well...

I think we need time to think.

It would be good for both of us.

Let's think about it for a few days,
then we can talk, okay?

Holy shit.

And now, the latest on the war on drugs.

Rafael Bautista, also known
as Lord of the Shadows,

and the head of the Guerrero Cartel,
has died.

Bautista's body was found this morning

on an estate in the vicinity of
the Desierto de Los Leones...

THE CANDIDATE

-Hello.
-Feeling better?

Yes.

What happened to your face?

I fell off my bike.
I'll tell you about it later.

You went biking while you were sick?
What a great idea.

Thanks for reminding me.

What's been happening?

The President said he still wants to go
to the "Breaking Walls" exhibit.

Oh, great.

At 2:00, there'll be a report
on the Bautista thing

and I was told
there was a shootout in Juárez,

between Federation hitmen
and, you won't believe it, CIA agents.

You're kidding.

I'll ask around, see what I can find.

Yes, that'd be helpful.

I picked a terrible day to stay home.

-Yeah.
-Sir, your coffee.

Thank you.

And...

Raúl Ponce wants to see you.

I imagine it's about the accusations
against his nephew.

Of course it is.

They were arrested on Thursday,
and Friday is the press conference,

so, if he wants to see me,
tell him Monday would be okay.

I don't think you've considered

how influential Ponce could be
in the future...

Well...

the only future endeavor I'm interested
in right now is lunch with Mancilla, okay?

After that, my schedule is free.

What do you mean "free"?

What about the presidency,
the candidacy...

You have a call from Miss Ofe, sir.

Thank you.

-Ofe.
-I'm sorry, Lalo.

But you told me I'd know
when to come back,

and I don't know if I should.

Everything is fine.

Come home.

Is this real?

...was found this morning on an estate
in the vicinity

of the Desierto de Los Leones...

Absolutely.

...the body of a cartel member
and two others yet to be identified.

They found other bodies as well.

One of them was the Diplomat.

Who killed them?

We still don't know.

But El Pastor and El Chente are
the only leaders left in that cartel.

Apparently they hate each other,

so whatever happens,
we expect Guerrero to heat up.

But that's my problem.

You got what you wanted, right?

Bautista is dead.

What if it isn't him?

What do you mean?

He's used body doubles before.

Wayne, please.

Until the DNA comes back...

Enough, man.

Bautista is dead.

Can I come in?

Hey,

when can I take the gringo for a stroll?

INSTITUTE OF FORENSIC SCIENCES
MEXICO CITY

Yeah. That's him.

Feel better?

I don't feel...

anything.

Guys, wait here.

Gunslinger, got a sec?

I got a couple of things to talk about.

First off,

headquarters and the White House
are not gonna put up

with an attack on
American intelligence officers.

We're hitting back.

Thank you.

So there'll be some sort of covert action?

No, joint op, DEA and Mexican Navy.

They located
the Federation capo, El Regio.

-They're gonna take him out.
-Wait, what?

The Mexican president has wanted this
for a while now.

He's been going after Bautista so hard,

people are whispering
he's in the Federation's pocket.

He's about to disprove that.

But you're going after the wrong cartel.

The Federation only attacked us
because Bautista tricked them into it.

Yeah, I know how to read an ops cable.

But the Federation shot you
even after they knew who you were.

Wait, you've been chasing after
the Federation's capo for years.

How can you explain that you
magically get a lead on him now?

This must've come
from the Guerrero Cartel.

It's just part of the set-up.

Sure, could be. Or not.
It doesn't really matter.

This is about showing the world
that you cannot fuck with us

and get away with it.

So you're gonna fragment the Federation
the same week Guerrero falls apart?

-This country's gonna fucking explode.
-You're missing the point.

This is what POTUS wants,
so get the fuck in line.

No! I'm not getting in line,

-the line sucks!
-Guys, get in here.

This is the second thing
I wanted to talk to you about.

Come on over here.

Isabel Alfaro,

for voluntary acts of courage
and extraordinary heroism,

you have been awarded
the Intelligence Star

by the Director
of the Central Intelligence Agency.

You are a credit to the clandestine
service and to your country.

Now look at the camera and smile, Isabel.

Get closer.

Thanks.

Mr. Yzaguirre, he's waiting for you.

Thank you.

Lalo.

I hope you don't mind.

It was difficult getting a meeting
through your people,

so Mancilla kindly gave me his spot
on your calendar.

It's always a pleasure, Raúl.

We're not giving your nephew
any special treatment.

Special treatment is exactly
what he's getting.

How many alleged rapes get prosecuted
in this city?

Five per cent? Two?

-If those boys were anyone else's...
-Men.

If their parents ran hardware stores,
there wouldn't even be any accusations.

That's how we've ended up like this.

So, if you'll excuse me...

Please.

I'll only take two minutes.

Dario, bring the man some wine.

Imagine two mayors.

The first...

is in the news every day.

The commentariat talk about him
becoming the next president.

The second...

only has his proposals covered

by those shitty little newspapers
they give away at traffic lights.

Which of the two, in your opinion,

would do a better job as mayor?

Which of the two, do you think,

is more likely to become president?

Thank you.

Do you know what a tapetazo is?

No.

It's a game rich kids love.

You get in the car,

you tell the chauffeur
to start driving around,

then you take the floormat

and roll it up,

and while the chauffeur is driving around,

you pick out the biggest loser
you can find.

Once you do that,

without slowing down,

you lean out of the window,
and without warning,

you whack some poor jerk
who was just waiting for the bus.

I was the king of tapetazo.

But then something really bad
happened to me.

After that, I couldn't act like the same
privileged brat I has been before.

What happened to me...

saved me.

So,

all of this, eventually,

will be the best thing
that ever happened to your nephew.

If you'll excuse me.

Lalito, my God,
how could you do such a thing?

Verónica is inconsolable.

Mom, leave it.

So the Cartel specifically asked you
to marry me?

No.

They told me to marry someone like you.

I'll sign the divorce papers
and accept any terms you want.

I'll never forgive myself
for involving you in this farce.

Do you remember the day I quit smoking?

The first day.

Do you remember what you did?

You helped me not go crazy.

And I didn't want to leave your side.

You held me for hours and hours

and we ended up making love
in the living room.

The feelings you expressed to me that day,

were they a farce too?

No,

not that part.

Then tell yourself whatever you want
to make yourself feel better,

I'm more than happy to give you a divorce.

But just to be clear,

you're not ending an arranged marriage.

What we had was a marriage, period.

These are the cartel cameras
we knew about.

But this one is different.

The transistor is new, it's smaller.

It doesn't have a serial number.

It was in the bedroom lamp,

where there were other camera.

It can't be Bautista's.

Do you think someone else
has been spying on us?

Who?

I don't know.

Trueba, maybe.

Or the other party, or the union.

But bugging my house is despicable.
I mean, what the hell?

We just have to accept that someone
knows Bautista had me by the balls.

Maybe the organized crime unit.

Or the Navy.

Or even the DEA.

You can set this up in two seconds,
and you're ready to go.

It could've been the phone guy,
or someone who brought something over.

It's just that so many people
have come through recently.

The guy who fixed the Internet,
the guy who installed the stove,

I don't know.

Actually...

When the guest bathroom wasn't working,

there was someone in your room,
your friend, the gringa.

Isa? No, why would she do that?

Why not?

I'm just saying
I saw her come out of there.

We just got confirmation.

El Regio is there.

Here it comes.

And we just decapitated the Federation.

Yeah, we did it.

Hi. Everything okay, boss?

All good.

Hey, did you hear anything
about the CIA agents from the shoot-out?

No, nothing.

Do you know
if one of the agents was a woman?

Actually, yes. It was a man and a woman.

Thanks.

-Hey.
-Hey.

I brought you your medicine.

Thank you!

How you feeling?

Well...

The narcos are really on to something.

Opioids are fucking awesome.

So...

What now?

I guess, back to DC.

When was the last time
you went on vacation?

You need to have some fun.

No, fun...

is where these babies come in.

How are you doing?

Yeah, not great.

Carla's not gonna sandbag you now.

You're a war hero.

It's not that.

Do you ever wonder
if what we do makes any difference?

All the fucking time.

Yeah, I just...

I came here with all these ideas
about making this place better,

but I think I just fucked everything up.

You know,
when I was living in Buenos Aires,

I met a woman, her name was Camila.

And I was...

I was hunting down Bautista and...

So...

I left her.

And it was all just a big fucking waste.

So, if you're thinking
of leaving the Agency,

do it now.

Hello?

-Hey.
-It's me.

Can we meet?

Hey. Come in.

I was thinking...

Maybe I'll quit being a diplomat,
who knows, you know?

But fuck it.

I'll stay in Mexico and we'll find a way.

Lalo?

Isa, sorry for waking you up.

I have to go to the office.

So early?

Well, yes.

I would love to stay with you longer.

I love you.

I've been trying to reach you
for three days.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

Everyone's talking about it here.
You got shot at?

Yeah, it was totally crazy,

but I'm fine.

Thank God.

Why didn't you call me?

I think we should break up, Boyd.

It's just...

There's someone else?

No.

It doesn't have to do with that, no.

Is it Lalo?

Boyd...

Wow.

Goodbye, Izzy.

I don't know what to do, Vero.

I just found out the CIA was spying on me.

They were spying on us in our house.

I mean, what the fuck?

I need your help.

This whole time,

you could never really see
how things worked

because Bautista was protecting you.

You didn't have to worry about
taking on people in power

or having a lot of enemies.

But now Bautista is gone.

It's time to make some new friends.

I feel terrible for having to do this,

but we're not continuing with your case.

What?

-Why not?
-Because we're going to lose.

But you told me we had to do this
even if we lose.

That young people like me
are the future and that...

that I gave you strength.

You did give me strength.

You gave me so much strength that...

I allowed myself to live in a fantasy.

We got carried away
by our good intentions.

If we lose, it'll undermine everything
we've been fighting for.

Actions have consequences.

Except for Ponce's nephew
and his fucking friends.

They can do whatever they want.

Forgive me.

You know what, Eduardo?

You really inspired me too.

I just dropped out of college
because I really want to study law,

to dedicate myself to public service.

And the first thing I'm gonna do
when I'm in

is get rid of all
the corrupt politicians like you.

That sounds good to me.

What happened to you?

I grew up.

Man, look who's here to waterboard me.

I will be out of this country very soon.

I know. I've already got dibs
on your Mexican junk food.

Can I take this? Thank you.

So, what's next for you?

Yeah, I decided to take a week
to go visit the cenotes in the Yucatán.

And then I'll be gone.

What if I asked you to stay longer?

I'm moving to DC to take over
head of Latin American Division.

I need an Acting Chief of Station until
the seventh floor appoints a new one.

It's temporary. Maybe a month.

Will you do it?

You just fired me.

Things changed.

And you're the devil I know.

What happened to Faustino?

He got promoted to DDO.

So that's why you saved my ass
when Boyd was sniffing around, huh?

You knew Faustino
was protecting me. You knew...

there must be a reason,
so you played hardball, huh?

Traded with him.

You...

You'd look after me
if he looked after you.

You in or not? I need to know.

Well...

I guess I owe you that
for putting up with me.

DIVORCE CERTIFICATE

Our lawyers could have taken care of this.

What are you doing here?

I did have feelings for you.

Lalo.

You don't want a divorce.

Why would I agree to this?

Because you still love me.

And I love you.

If we're going to try again,

it won't be like before.

I don't want secrets. I don't want lies.

I want to be your partner in everything.

Hey, it's me.

I haven't heard from you.

It's been a few days.

Just call me, okay?

Bye.

Hey, I know you're blowing me off.

And it sucks, yeah.

No, I just...

I was just calling to let you know
I'm leaving the embassy,

and I'm leaving Mexico, so...

Despite everything,

I wish you the best in life.

Okay?

Bye.

INSTALLING SOFTWARE

TRANSMITTER NOT FOUND

I think you might be right about Lalo.

There have been some indications,
circumstantial, so...

So I checked the transmitter
in his apartment.

It's not on the system.

I think he might've discovered it.

What indications?

Well,

he's not answering my phone calls for one.

How long have you been fucking him?

As you know, I didn't want you
to sleep with him, but...

as you also know,
of course I wanted you to sleep with him.

I just wish you'd done it sooner,
more effectively.

Let's listen to those recordings
from his apartment.

There are no recordings.

After Pamela, I...

I deleted everything
and I turned off the transmitter remotely.

Yeah, I figured you might do that.

So I made backups of the recordings and

turned the transmitter back on.

Bug sweeper.

Unscrewing the light bulb.

Right, so he knows he's being surveilled,

and he knows it's by you.

That still doesn't prove that he's working
for Bautista though, so...

True, but you know what just might?

That shitload of recordings right there.

-Nothing happened.
-Did you talk to Saldaña?

I have nothing to say to you.

Today, I started ovulating.

Her son is in trouble.

It's too small, I don't know why it...

Stop! I'm not even talking about Ofelia.

-What are you talking about?
-...the whole evening.

-The damn press won't leave me alone!
-It wasn't for fun.

Can you believe it?

Well, if nothing happened...

I'm sorry, ma'am.

They keep saying
this is just the beginning.

Damn.

Hey, honey...

Hey, I gotta head out.

Why?

It's the grand opening
of the "Breaking Walls" exhibit tonight.

You wanna come?

Might be fun to do some reminiscing
with your ex.

What else isn't true, huh?

Say something, goddamn it!
Is this a fucking joke?

I'm talking to you! Tell me!

I'm talking to you! Tell me!

So, what do you think?

-Let's talk about it later.
-Lalo.

Raúl, good evening.

It's a pleasure to see you, Verónica.
Good evening.

Thank you for the invitation.

And for everything else, of course.

I want to make it clear
that he didn't get any special treatment.

We just didn't have enough evidence.

Of course.

Next week, I'm playing golf at Punta Mita.

I'd love for you to come.

My chef makes the best paella
in the world.

I'm going to invite some friends
I think you should meet.

-I'd love to.
-Perfect.

Rafael Bautista has
the whole apartment bugged.

I've been working for him for 10 years.

That's why I married you.

As you all know,
this exhibit is very special to me.

The cultural exchange between Mexico
and the US has always fascinated me,

as has the great friendship
that unites these two nations.

In more ways than one,

we are brothers.

However...

the US hasn't always been a good brother.

They stole half our land,

they instigated the government takeover
that paved the way for the Revolution,

and their appetite for drugs
is the main driver

behind the violence
we suffer here every day.

But many of these problems have
come to be because Mexico...

Because Mexico was the little brother,

and our big brother took
advantage of us, of course.

That's how power works.

But the solution isn't to lay the blame
solely on the United States.

Mexico must deal with its own problems.

-Yes!
-Mexico must deal with...

its neighbor to the north.

That's right, Yzaguirre!

But to do that,
we need a new political class.

A new political class capable
of cleaning this country up

and putting us on the same level
as the United States.

When that happens,

I'm sure that both countries

will have a bright and prosperous future.

I am delighted to inaugurate
"Breaking Walls."

Thank you very much for coming
and have a wonderful evening.

How long have you been
working for Bautista?

You're crazy.

Ten years?

Is that why you disappeared?

Right.

Is that why you're making up
this little story?

Because it explains
why I broke up with you?

I'm really sorry I hurt you,

but I swear I had nothing to do
with the drug smuggling.

What are you going to do now
that he's not here to protect you?

How can you be saying such craziness?

You betrayed me.

You put a fucking microphone in my house.

And guess what I heard.

Rafael Bautista has
the whole apartment bugged.

I've been working for him for 10 years.

That's why I married you.

That's not my voice.

Why don't we play it for the guests,
see what they think?

Go ahead.

Do it, play your fake recording.

I can't wait to see how you explain it.

In this country, it's not very well
looked upon to spy on the mayor.

They throw you out of the country
for much less.

I'll risk it.

How can you look at yourself

knowing you manipulated
your way into my life?

To ruin my marriage, to spy on me?

How many, Lalo?

How many people died because of you?

This coming from a CIA agent?

How many died because of you?

Fuck this bullshit.

We'll be coming for you.

Or we'll be coming for you.

What the fuck did you say to her?

The cultural attaché.

Isa's boss.

Former boss.

You gonna answer the question?

No.

I never understood what she saw in you.

Hey!

So, what happened?

Rafael Bautista has
the whole apartment bugged.

Let's go this way.

Honey, you'll have to make peace
with the President sooner or later.

Not today.

Mr. Mayor, a photo with the President?

Do me the honor, Mr. Mayor.

-Of course.
-Good.

Yeah, quality is shit.

You can't even tell it's him, but we know.

We finally know.

I always knew.

"We need a new political class."

What did you mean by that, Mr. Mayor?

Are you seriously asking me
that right now?

Just remember that in two months,
we've got a budget review.

And I am going to fuck...

What happened?

-Are you okay?
-Yes, I'm fine. You?

I'm fine.

Okay. Thanks, anyway.

Well, the Navy's got nothing.

Do you think this could've been
to help Lalo?

He's gonna get to run
for president earlier.

Well, we're gonna find out.

You're staying?

I'll find a way.

I have to. Mezcal is cheaper here.

Come on.
We gotta update this fucking chart.

Could it have been the Federation?

Or someone from the Guerrero Cartel?

I don't know.

It could've been anyone.

What if they were trying to kill you?

You were standing right next to Trueba.

We don't have much time
to make you president.
