All they had to do was take a closer look

at my bullshit paperwork.

- How the hell did that guy know you?

- I'm the one who got him put in there.

Look, I-I-I think I know a way to fix this.

- I'm listening.

- Detention center protocol

dictates that if a detainee commits a crime,

like attacking an agent, he gets handed over to ICE,

and then he's transferred to another facility.

- Juan Doe will be transferred, where?

- Adelanto-- three hours north.

I did you a favor, man.

Getting past one or two agents in a transpo van

is gonna be a hell of a lot easier than facing down
