I liked the other place better.

- Me, too. - (chuckles)

Oh, no, that's fine. Yeah, just go right ahead.

These are decommissioned?

Well, no, I just lifted 'em from the armory.

You think anyone's gonna notice?

(chuckles) They're decommissioned.

They're on their way to destruction at Anniston.

How'd you...

I'm gonna redirect a smaller shipment,

call it an error, and this batch is just gonna...

It seems like a lot of work for some guns.

You didn't tell him?

You getting it now, kemosabe?

No deal.

(chuckles) What?

I don't want any weapons that could be linked back to the U.S.

You have any idea what I went through

to get these fuckers loose?

I'm sorry that Logan wasted your time.

Oh, no, man. You're wasting my fucking time.

Hey, give us a minute. Okay?

A minute.

(chuckles)

This was the only way to get rocket launchers.

And when some New York Times reporter comes down there

to write about the conflict, traces those serial numbers

back to El Toro, and then to that fuck-wit,

whose name do you think he's gonna sing to get out of it?

No one's gonna check the serial numbers.

I did.

Well, how are we gonna fight the communists

if we don't have any fucking weapons?

Okay. (Chuckles)

You have a problem with the serial numbers.

- Yeah, and the crates. - Okay.

We'll repack them.

Once we get them down there,

I'll have my guys grind out the numbers.

Problem solved.

(jet engines roaring)

Okay, before we go, you and I, we get power tools.

We grind the numbers out ourselves.

Then we take them down.

Just us? Do have any idea how long that'll take?

(stomping)

Pedro, does Hector have kids?

Told you not to use this shithole. Fucking ants.

They're everywhere.

Can you focus for once, please?

The only way to keep your father's eyes off of us

is to kill one of these five.

Make it look like they took the money and ran.

- So does Hector have a family? - Yeah, but Hector's a bitch.

(door closes) Father will be happy to think he did it.

- So he doesn't have kids? - No, he's got four of them.

They'll all be better off without him.

(man singing in Spanish)

Ya te dije no families.

Okay, then Ron's out, too.

- Tomás or Enrique? - Tomás.

- Why not Enrique? - Because Enrique works security.

Just did six years for manslaughter.

And Tomás is a delivery boy.
