Original subtitles

Oh.

Just leave it.

I just got it open.

You tried it a million times.

When we get to the capital, I pick the hotel.

Fair is fair.

And we rent the best car they got.

We get Marta and we're gone.

Friendly place.

Yeah.

The best.

Word just came in, she and three other women

were picked up by government soldiers

just outside [inaudible].

Is she OK?

She disappeared.

[speaking spanish]

OK.

Take it easy.

We're American.

Hey.

OK, it's just ID.

[speaking spanish]

Americano?

Yeah, right done to my ginji's.

- [speaking spanish] - Yes.

Si.

What did they do?

Vamoose.

Wait a minute, what did they do?

[speaking spanish]

[gunshots]

[THEME - HOLLY ROBINSON, "21 JUMP STREET THEME"]

THEME SONG: We never thought of finding

a place where we belong.

Don't have to stand alone, we'll never let you fall.

Don't need permission to decide what you believe.

I said jump done on Jump Street.

I said jump down on Jump Street.

Your friends will be there when your back is to the wall.

You'll find you'll need us because there's

no one else to call.

When it was hopeless, a decision is what you need.

You better be ready to be ready to jump.

21 Jump Street.

All I can do is register your report, Officer Penhall.

There's just no no way to know exactly what happened.

We can identify the soldiers.

Could've been rebels dressed as soldiers.

What do you mean rebels dressed as soldiers?

No way to know who's who in Salvador.

Why don't you go out there and take a look.

Officer Penhall, please sit down.

Let me explain.

We're not a human rights office.

We're an embassy.

I understand your frustration about the passengers

and your wife.

We simply don't have any information

to go on, in either case.

I suggest you go to the human rights office,

check their books.

What books?

The best thing for us to do is drive to the cooperative farm

where she used to live, find her sister,

her family, somebody who can tell us where she is.

Getting to El Triumphal on foot is not so easy.

It means going through the battle zones.

With the war, everyone is distrustful of strangers,

especially strangers Americanos.

Look, I say we rent a car first thing in the morning,

we drive to El Triumphal, we take the chance.

And the people from the bus?

[speaking spanish]

Muy beenie.

Muy bueno.

Muy bueno.

Up your nose.

Tastes like distilled horse puckey.

OK, a toast and to forgetting.

Amnesia.

Head wounds.

Rash,

Hey, this ain't right, two Americans excluding a third.

Ben Halley.

Mahatma Gandhi.

All right, all right.

So what's the deal?

You guys lost or what?

I still don't get El Triumphal.

Why are you so interested?

I don't know, natural curiosity, I guess.

You ever been there?

No, no, no, no.

I spend my time in the capital.

Comforts of home.

Well, some of them anyway.

Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.

You ever hear that?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Somewhere.

It's written above the entrance to the CIA building.

Yeah, but I thought it was out of the Bible or something.

So, what's in El Triumphal?

Oh.

I smell something funny.

The guy reeks covert action.

Oh, yeah, and then he asked us if cops means we're CIA, right.

That guy at the embassy had one thing right.

You can't tell who's who in this whole filthy country.

Relax.

Tomorrow we drive to the cooperative,

everything will be OK.

Who are these guys?

[speaking spanish]

All right, take it easy.

Our badges?

We're going to need the badges.

Hey, wait a minute.

What about our badges?

Hey, man.

Well, now what are we supposed to do?

Trudge the tundra?

[speaking spanish]

Walk.

I gathered that.

If you would have just kept your mouth shut,

we'd still have our car.

Well, you said something too.

They took our badges.

We don't need no stinking badges.

No no.

Give me some money.

[speaking spanish]

OK. All right.

Come on, we're going.

We got a ride.

- Madre. - What?

What?

Better get your passport ready.

[speaking spanish]

OK.

OK.

I got [inaudible].

I'm not going to get--

Documentos.

Where do you think you're going?

El Triumphal.

This road's not open anymore.

Well, we didn't know that.

American police, huh?

[speaking spanish]

Get in the car.

[knocking]

Hanson wanted the rental car.

Give me something.

- What time is it? - Shut up.

Shut up.

Who is it?

It's Ben.

You want to get to El Triumphal?

What's it to you?

I can get you there, but you've got to move now.

Get your stuff.

What are you, kidding?

We're not going anywhere with you,

because you're working for the people who keep stopping us.

Whatever you want, you got 30 seconds.

You're not going to go with that guy, he's CIA.

What choice do I have?

All right, it's been two hours since we got out of town.

Where the hell are we?

All we can squeeze out of you is over the next hill.

Now, I can't even see the next hill.

Can you? - I don't see a hill.

You're out of town, trust me.

We don't even know who you are.

Somebody who can get you what you want.

Some people have got to check you out first.

What people?

The only people we've seen-- stop.

Sh.

The only people we've seen stick guns up our noses.

Treasury Police, National Police,

Guardia, Army, just take your pick,

but these are not those people.

You just have to trust me.

[tapping]

Wait right here.

Where are you going?

Just do it.

Oh.

Where are you going?

I'm not going to stand there like a target.

What are we going to do?

Oh, this is good, sitting like a target.

They're with [inaudible],, the rebels.

I'm turning you over to them.

[speaking spanish]

Oh, that looks good.

Can we have some of that?

Later.

First, I want to know why you're going to Triumphal.

My wife disappeared.

I'm looking for her.

So Ben says.

My father and I taught at the University.

When the soldiers closed it down,

they killed him along with many others, friends and students,

people of conscience.

She found the bodies of her sister

and her mother near their house.

Later, she found their heads stuck on road markers.

Everybody has a story.

Which side are you on?

They took my wife.

Feed them.

[speaking spanish]

What?

I don't know.

Short, slow steps or you'll never last.

Short, slow steps.

We're never going to get there.

Doug, my feet are killing me, man.

I'm sorry.

You know, when I brought you down here,

I didn't know we were going to have to walk all the way.

This is another fine mess you've gotten me into.

Hey, Laurel and Hardy, do you know them?

They're these great comedians, and they, you know,

scratch their heads and stuff like that and made weird faces.

Show her.

Se dice, another fine mess?

Another fine mess.

But with a--

[inaudible].

Another fine mess you've gotten me into.

- Another-- - [speaking spanish]

I'm sorry.

[speaking spanish]

What?

Um, tired.

Everybody's tired.

Oh, well, humping their stuff, they don't trust us.

Another fine mess.

Another fine mess.

Have a seat, guys.

Oh, oh, oh.

Un cerveza, por favor.

Will some beer nuts, huh?

I tell you, it sure is good to hear English again.

How long you been here.

A little better than a year.

Here you go.

Oh, oh, oh.

Go back to the capital every once in a while

just to call stateside, but mostly I've

been humping these mountains.

Why?

Just wanted to get away, a little vacation

in sleepy Salvador.

I was in this little village when

the government troops attacked.

Two planes, bombs, napalm.

Napalm?

Then the ground forces moved in.

Killed just about everybody.

Women, old people, kids.

I thought I'd put that kind of thing behind me,

but it was all over again.

You were a vet.

Sleepy Southeast Asia.

Trained as a medic.

These people have been bleeding for a long, long time.

They were raised thinking they were slaves.

Now the slaves are revolting.

[speaking spanish]

He's making targeting passes.

He'll soon be back.

Your tax dollars at work.

I left my shoes.

[inaudible].

We'd better get the hell out of here.

[crying out in pain]

He's pretty banged up.

He's dying.

The shot was for pain.

After, check his boots, maybe they'll fit you.

Marta?

Douglas?

My sister carried your picture.

What happened to Marta?

There is no word.

I know that Marta's been missing for about five months.

A very long time.

Yeah, but I'm still an optimist.

It's just the way I got to think, you know?

She used to tell me the story about,

I think it was you, with the slingshot.

She said you shot cross-eyed on it.

When I shot, I crossed my eyes for fun.

They call me La Bizca.

La Bizca, right.

I guess you don't shoot cross-eyed anymore.

No.

Not now.

How far is it to El Triumphal?

For you, one more day.

Well, how long has it been since you've been home?

Maybe a year.

- Are you married? - No more.

I have a son at the cooperative.

Clavo.

My husband fought the enemy nine years.

How do they fit?

They're a little snug.

They are Ricardo's.

You will have to march a long time to fill them.

Marta taught you English.

She thought it was important to know one's enemy.

You know, we're not the enemy, us personally.

You are the exception.

Marco has decided that tomorrow Rosina will

take you to the cooperative.

If there is news of Marta, it will come there first.

Here another fine mess.

Great.

You?

You've gotten me into.

You gotten-- you've gotting me--

here's another fine mess you gotten me on to.

[speaking spanish]

Where are the communist soldiers?

I already told you, man, I'm a cop.

You are not a cop.

You are a communist.

Everybody who disagrees with you is a communist.

[speaking spanish]

After a few days, you must be thirsty and hungry.

Where are the communists?

OK.

OK, man, I'll tell you.

As far as I can tell, there's about a thousand rebel soldiers

in a row at your momma's house.

Oh.

They can't keep us here.

You didn't tell them anything, did you?

No.

Good.

[speaking spanish]

[speaking spanish]

Are you all right?

Are you all right?

I was lucky.

We must hurry.

How did you know we were in there?

We didn't.

Our attack has been planned for a long time.

We had a man inside.

He told us you were here.

We came for another prisoner and for guns.

Let's go.

We must hurry.

Come on.

If I see one more gun.

It looks like quite a haul.

Pretty good.

Pretty good.

We grab what we can from the military.

And we had to turn to the east block for help too,

and of course, we just bought a ton of stuff from the Contras.

Amalia will take you to El Triumphal.

See me before you leave.

Short, slow steps.

We're almost there.

You change shoes more than anybody I've ever known.

Yeah, well, I can't help it, I'm a slave to fashion.

Excuse me.

Douglas is nervous about meeting his mother-in-law.

I never had a mother-in-law before.

In the mountains, we hid two stones together.

We signal so that we know who is who.

[speaking spanish] In remembrance of us.

What is this?

I'll send word before I come back.

Goodbye, Ben.

Take care.

Ben.

Mahatma.

Thank you for everything.

Watch your back.

This is El Triumphal.

Our Triumph.

Mommy.

Mommy.

Clavo.

This is my boy.

Clavo.

[speaking spanish]

I'm telling him your uncles.

[speaking spanish]

He gave me cinco.

[speaking spanish]

Ma.

Momma.

[speaking spanish]

Hello, Mom.

[speaking spanish]

What about Marta?

Soldiers.

What did she say?

They buried her two days ago when

was soldiers left her body.

How you doing?

About as well as anyone here.

They all say it's God's will.

What do you say?

How can they stand it?

They've been fighting for so long and all they have is this.

I just wish I could do something.

Mayday.

Mayday.

This is check number 1.

This is check number 1.

You're getting him too excited.

Time for him to go to bed.

[speaking spanish]

He's a cute kid.

Yeah.

Amalia says it's about a four hour walk, that should help.

Maybe get some flowers or something on the way.

Wow, look at you.

Gracias.

It feels very strange, too open.

Would you watch him for a moment?

Yeah.

Douglas, I have a favor to ask.

Go ahead.

Sure, anything.

Something last night I thought of.

I want you, when you go back home, to take Clavo.

He is our future.

Here he has nothing.

You can educate him.

Help him grow.

I can't.

Make him strong, then send him back to us.

Amalia.

You must find the strength.

What do I know about bringing up a kid?

It's done with love and courage.

You can teach him those things.

This is crazy.

Yes, it is.

You'd just give him up?

I have a sister who lives in the capital.

To her, I'm the enemy.

She thinks she's right.

I think I'm right.

But Clavo is in the middle.

Clavito, [speaking spanish]

I finally find you, and I don't know what to say.

I don't even know how this happened.

I love you, Marta.

I don't-- I didn't know you.

Five days.

I had five days.

Here I am with these flowers.

I miss you.

Clavo's coming.

Clavo's coming with me back home.

This place is so full of cruelty.

I promise you, I'll love him like he was my own.

Our own.
