A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

PREVIOUSLY...

What's up, Teresa? Why'd you call us back?

We've been informed

that an enemy of mine

is coming to Culiacán.

We don't know if it's to attack me directly,

and we don't know what he knows.

So tell me right now

who you've given information to concerning our location.

Say no more.

Give me the address.

El Submarino Bar, 1101 Juárez Street.

I felt terrible after what happened with Ray,

and I called Spain to talk to Charo.

Did you give her our address, yes or no?

Yes.

Go with the others!

Siso found me.

We need to be prepared.

Now that we know about the Galicians,

we have to take advantage and kill two birds with one stone.

Imagine what that'd mean for Zurdo.

What's up, Lencho?

Someone stole half the load.

Don't fuck with me. Get here now. We need to take it to the other Laredo.

We were driving.

They had to be pros. They even used a ramp.

Operation Hammock has to work against the Galicians.

Bitch!

What happened, Siso?

Don't you want to kill me? Or did you run out of bullets?

You set this up so we'd run out of ammo.

How'd you know I was coming to Mexico?

I'm the Queen of the South, and I have my contacts.

You're only saying that because you have a gun in your hands.

Come down here, Mexican.

I know what you're going through,

and I understand.

Your father was never proud of you.

He respected Santiago Fisterra more, who wasn't even his son.

Shut your mouth.

It's true.

You were jealous of Santiago

because he was your dad's favorite pilot.

But he's dead now, and I'm the boss of the Pernas clan.

Got that, Mexican?

You know what?

What pisses you off is that I'm a woman.

That's your real problem.

You're a misogynist piece of shit.

Siso, you're no one anymore.

Fucking bitch!

I can stop being a bitch, but you'll never stop being a dumb-ass.

This is the second to last time I'll ever see you, Siso.

Later.

Don't be scared. I'm not going to kill you.

I'm just making sure you don't take my truck.

The same's about to happen to your truck.

Where do you think you're going?

Let's go, girls. It stinks like death in here.

Teresa, Teresa!

I'm going to find you!

I'm going to destroy you!

Look who you're with! Your two little friends!

Sheila and Conejo!

Three fucking whores!

Get over here!

Oleg...

I need a favor.

I need to make up for my mistake with Teresa and the camera.

I want to do the drop-off.

Things will go as planned.

Please.

-No! -Why not?

It's too risky.

Ahmed, check the cargo in the truck.

Siso and his cousins are very dangerous.

I know. But I promise everything will work out.

Let Teresa decide.

The Pernases are in the cage.

Congrats to you all. This has been an incredible team effort.

Antón, get the truck ready.

I'll be back in about an hour.

Raymundo wants to do the drop-off.

No chance.

-We already have someone... -Teresa.

I put you at risk at Zurdo's ranch, and I want to make up for it.

Please.

You're old enough.

Your call. Be very careful.

What'll I tell your mom if it goes wrong?

If it goes wrong, it'll be my fault.

I'll remind you I've dealt with worse criminals. That's why I had to leave D.C.

You're just as stubborn as your uncle.

They know me. I insist that I go with you, Teresa.

Me, too.

I kind of like shooting guns.

No, girls. Rocio's the only one coming with me.

We've discussed it. I have my reasons.

Don't insist. Last night we said I'd go.

So that's that.

I want to wish you all luck.

We're going to need it.

Oleg, the truck is loaded.

All right.

It's your turn.

Thank you, Oleg.

Good luck.

Close the doors!

Let's go!

THE QUEEN OF THE SOUTH

Your mother didn't teach you that.

It's always easier with one of these.

You won't be able to open it.

I bought a special lock.

Now that I know you better,

I know how to keep you from getting your way.

You said that in this house

there were no locks, keys or anything.

You said I could go wherever I wanted.

Except that basement.

It's dangerous.

Not as dangerous as you and my mom,

who kidnapped me to collect the ransom from my grandmother.

Where'd you get that stupid idea?

Stupid?

You're both liars, con artists, and thieves!

God damn that Mexican and her entire family!

What the fuck are we supposed to do now, Siso?

We're out of bullets.

We're locked in here like rats.

This is all your fault, damn it!

Siso, what's that chick's deal?

Why'd she lock us in here?

Care to explain?

Why'd she say this was the second to last time?

What the hell do I know?

You're the boss! You know everything!

Don't fuck with me, Benxamin!

It's always Benxa! Always him, huh?

What's your problem?

Shut your goddamn mouth.

We need to find a way out and get the hell out of here.

Got that?

Relax, Zurdo.

Listen to him first, and then make a decision.

Remember, he's your right hand.

I'll listen to him, all right.

He'd better tell me everything!

Everything! Give me your gun.

-What? -Your gun, Faustino.

No. What are you going to do?

Give it to me.

Be careful.

Tell me how my merchandise went missing

before I put a bullet in your fucking head, fool!

Well?

-Boss... -Shut up, motherfucker!

Over here.

Siso...

There's no way out through here, either.

Hide.

That truck is our ticket out of here.

Telmo, go grab that rod we left over there.

From under the truck? Give me a break!

How did you not notice?

That wasn't a professional job!

That was because you're stupid!

You slipped up because you weren't paying attention!

Who should I shoot first?

Which one of you idiots wants to die first?

-Zurdo, relax. -Shut up! Mind your own business!

Who the fuck wants to die first?

Answer me.

You or you? Answer me!

Idiots!

Don't cry, moron!

Who the hell is that?

Now there's a sight for sore eyes.

Teresa...

you should've told us you were coming.

I would've chilled some tequila.

I'll take it any way. I don't like cold tequila.

I wanted to come in person.

I think you'll want to hear what I have to say.

And why would you be interested in

what I'm interested in?

I'm a very grateful woman.

You gave me some gifts, and now I have to give you

something more valuable:

secret information.

There are people interested in stealing your merch. In fact,

I think they already stole it.

I know who the thieves are.

They knew every detail.

Where it was coming from, how you were transporting it...

In fact, they even had your escape routes.

They've got you all checked out.

That's what we're trying to say!

Get out of here!

What happened? They robbed you already, didn't they?

How many kilos did they steal?

-Almost five tons. -What?

That's a lot of money.

How the hell did you know about the robbery? How?

Because I have contacts all over the world.

People with a lot of pull.

Who gave you this information?

The Minister of Intelligence of the Kingdom of Morocco.

-Where is that? -Africa.

He's a friend who owes me, okay?

When I left, I asked him to watch my back as a favor

and to keep me posted on whatever concerns me, including you two.

So now besides all the monkeys in Africa

are people looking out for us.

How awesome that we're among friends

and that we all look out for each other.

A man for a woman and a woman for a man. And vice versa.

-It's beautiful. -I'm serious, Faustino.

I don't like being watched by any government,

-especially without my knowing. -I don't understand.

What bothers you, Zurdo?

That I have people watching my back, or someone stole a shitload of your product?

My people cracked a code sent from Africa.

Do you want the information, or should we just go?

-Let's go. -Hold on! Wait.

Who are we talking about?

-Who's the thief? -You're not going to like this.

It was that motherfucker Siso Pernas.

Nah.

I don't believe that one bit.

Siso's always been straight with me on all our deals.

He would've had to lose his damn mind to betray me.

You don't know him like I do.

The guy's greed has him spiraling.

Really, Zurdo, the most you can expect from him is to get backstabbed.

Right, Faustino? Did you tell him what happened between you two?

Zurdo, let's not kid each other.

You know what I think of that asshole.

I wouldn't vouch for that guy if my life depended on it.

Unlike Mr. Joaquín, his father.

We did a lot of good business with him.

He was a gentleman. Classy, a man of his word.

Teresa said it. Siso is an idiot.

It only took one deal with that guy

to figure out he was full of it.

In fact, the Spanish police are after him.

Siso and his cousins left Galicia in a private plane.

They changed all the names of the passengers,

and doctored the manifest.

They flew straight into Culiacán.

-Did your contact tell you that? -Yes.

My people in Mexico also confirmed his arrival.

Teresa, our partners sent us a message.

By the looks on your faces, it must be bad.

Zurdo, I know where they've got your merch.

Where?

That information has a price.

Really?

First you say you've got information for me

because you're grateful or whatever,

but now it's got a price?

Everything in life is a business deal.

What changes is the merchandise.

Or are you saying you didn't have other intentions with the gifts you gave me?

The rest is for your men.

Okay.

Good job, guys.

You saved Tessa at the right moment.

At your service, sir.

Thank you.

You did great, Ahmed. Congrats.

All this reminded me of being in Morocco,

when I used to traffic tobacco between Ceuta and Agadir.

I've seen a lot of things, but never so many bullets at once.

Right, Sheila? It was like a Mission Impossible movie.

Now, what was most dangerous was Teresa's mouth.

The things she told Siso Pernas... oh, Lord!

She got him to open his mouth,

and like they say here, spill the beans.

What beans?

You're in luck.

He said he got our address

because he tapped your grandmother's phone.

You're off the hook!

Thank goodness.

I'm happy for you

and for the whole team.

Thank you, Oleg.

Ray must be the one going through the wringer.

Any news from Teresa?

Not yet.

I'm waiting.

I hope everything works out as planned.

Faustino, how much did you charge him per ton?

Five big ones.

Five million per ton gives you 25 at cost,

which means you actually lost $50 million,

but thanks to me, and because I'm only charging you ten,

you're going to get back 40.

So I'm going to pay for the same merchandise twice.

I'm going to run it by you a little slower.

When you're talking about $75 million,

ten is like pinching an elephant's butt cheek.

On top of everything, you'll be pocketing $40 million,

and at the current cost in the US.

Plus, once those five tons are cut up and shipped out,

you'll end up with a total of $100 million.

In other words, you'll make back what I'm charging you

for priceless information.

You'll have your market entertained for a while

and we'll all be happy.

You're sharper than you are beautiful.

She is.

She could be on one of those talent shows in Mexico.

You've got a calculator in your head, babe.

Lencho! Come here. Hurry up.

Round up ten of our toughest guys.

If what Teresa's saying is true, it's gonna rain fire.

Get my Double Eagle ready.

If Siso Pernas betrayed me, I'll baptize him with gold.

Still don't believe me?

Not you, Teresa, but I don't know your contacts.

I don't trust people I don't know.

Let's see what's up first.

Then we'll see what's up with your money, all right?

You got the time?

Time.

Take his fucking headphones off.

What is this shit?

You're going to hear some heavenly music now.

Give me the keys to the truck or I'll make pozole out of you.

Easy.

Please don't hurt me.

No...

Give me the fucking keys!

The keys.

They're in my pocket.

Here they are.

One more thing.

Open the bay doors.

And don't try to be a superhero, got it?

Come on.

Move it!

Go get the fucking kid before he escapes!

Hey you! Get over here!

The goddamn truck won't start.

Go fix it.

I said fix it!

We don't have all day.

You're going to make this goddamn truck start.

Got it?

Let's go.

What's up, Batman?

What's up, boss?

Lupo.

Welcome.

Well?

How safe is this place?

Just imagine. It's an island.

Nothing ever happens here and people don't visit anymore.

We have to change this flag.

A man said he wouldn't donate a single peso

to this corrupt politician's campaign.

The candidate is Lupo's boss and my mom's.

Where's the girl?

Around.

She's in her room.

We had an argument.

Go find her.

I don't want her to meet me.

I don't want any surprises.

Hey, girl!

-Calm down! -She already saw me.

Sofía, go inside the house!

You're my kidnappers' boss.

-Enough, Sofía. -Are you also my mom's friend?

Go inside the house. We're talking about adult things.

Why are you partners? She sent you to prison.

What are you talking about?

My mother sent you to prison because she says you're corrupt.

I don't understand why you're her partner now.

Sofía, stop it. Really.

There must be a very big secret

if my mom is doing business with you, Mr. Candidate.

What are you talking about, you stupid girl?

Your name is Epifanio Vargas and you're running for president of Mexico.

Got that?

Or should I repeat it in Italian?

I'd heard about you, but they didn't do you justice.

You're very smart.

But most of all, you've got a lot of personality, and I like that.

Now start telling me how you found out about me.

What for?

Because I'm nosy, just like you.

I like to be well informed.

Got it?

Or should I repeat it in Nahuatl?

Who knows who told her that?

It must've been Morgana because we haven't said anything.

Hold on, Batman.

Let her explain.

Tell me what I asked.

My mom putting you in prison nine years ago

because you're corrupt...

I read that online.

And I found out you were running for president when I escaped.

Your face is all over Mexico,

but you look older in person.

So are the mountain ranges and even they become green again.

-Respect the boss. -Let me go.

-Go, go. -Let me go!

Go!

That's enough!

She's even wilder than her mother.

I don't like that she has so much information.

Teresa, I'm a bit nervous.

There are lots of guns. You never see this in Spain.

I grew up around them and I'm still not used to it.

Come with me.

We'll be right back.

Why don't you take her to the hotel?

I don't want to expose her.

You shouldn't put yourself in danger either, my queen.

I've always admired your gall,

but if this gets out of hand, let's split.

Are you sure there's no other way to do this?

What did I tell you yesterday when you came to see me?

That you're absolutely sure about what you're doing.

Faustino, I always look before I leap.

In fact, I couldn't have done all this without the information you gave me.

I never even would've tried it.

I'm scared.

I'm scared as hell.

Fear is my motivator.

I'm scared of never seeing my daughter again.

And, yes, you're right.

-What we're doing is fucking crazy. -It's more than crazy.

It's a circus act and you're the clown on the tightrope.

If Zurdo finds out it was you and not Siso

who stole his merch,

goodbye Teresita and all your kin.

Be careful, my queen.

What do you really want from Zurdo?

Look, I don't want to get you in any more trouble.

This is enough.

The less you know, the better.

Let's go before it's too late!

Come on!

The girl is coming with me.

Zurdo, why don't you let her go back to the hotel?

Why put her in danger? She's too young.

She's never seen any of this.

I want to help, Teresa.

I know, but you've helped enough

and you'll have many more chances to help.

Just tell me where to take her

and I'll gladly sacrifice myself.

No? Why, Zurdo?

It's simple.

I could just give you the address

where they're keeping your stuff. I don't even have to go with you,

but you're paying me a large amount

and I want you to know me as a client.

Just me, though. No one else.

Let the girl go.

Fine. Go ahead, Faustino.

Take her to the hotel, but don't get lost on the way.

A hotel sounds good. I can take a nap.

I was up all night thinking of you.

Antón, see you at the hotel.

Thank you, Lencho.

Don't worry, Paloma.

Since I met Teresa in prison,

the thing that surprised me about her is her skill with numbers

and planning every last detail.

She had everything calculated when we set this place up.

The locks, the doors, locking the Galicians in,

the cargo truck.

And Ray playing a driver with a truck that doesn't work.

Exactly.

She could work for the CIA or the KGB.

The KGB doesn't exist anymore.

It dissolved when the Soviet Union collapsed.

Now it's the FSB, and I assure you that Tessa is better

than half the agents in that organization.

To think that right now she's negotiating with that man.

What if he doesn't believe her?

-I wouldn't want to be in her shoes. -Don't worry.

She was like this when I met her.

She tried selling me a shipment that O'Farrell's husband had stolen.

Don't worry.

Tessa knows how to negotiate with sons of bitches like me and Zurdo Villa.

Speaking of sons of bitches, how was your night with Batman?

Did you get the information Teresa asked for?

You have no idea. It was a complete disaster!

Why?

I was only able to search the living room drawers.

The guy moved fast as lightning.

I figured I'd do the deed quickly

and snoop through the whole house once he fell asleep.

But right when we were about to fuck...

Okay, okay.

We're about to receive Tessa's signal.

Let's pay attention.

This happens sometimes. It's an electrical problem.

I'm positive my bastard mechanic does it on purpose

so I'll have to take the truck back monthly.

The worst part is I've told my boss and he doesn't believe me.

Look, Clark Kent, I don't give a shit about your stories.

Get the engine going or I'll rip your head off.

I'll get it to work. I just need my tools.

Where are they?

Go.

I want to talk to Teresa before going back to Mexico,

but I'm telling you, that girl is dangerous.

Don't worry.

Everything will be over when she goes back to her mother.

That's if she ever goes back.

What do you mean?

Anything that gets in the way of me becoming president

has to disappear, including the girl.

Understand?

No.

I don't understand.

You don't touch children.

Is that clear?

Yes.

Very clear.

Let's go, Batman!

Let's go.

Let's go!

Hang on.

Sofía!

Sofía.

Sofía!

Sofía.

If what you said is true,

those dogs are going to die today, far from their homeland.

Betrayal's the one thing I won't forgive.

I told you that, too.

That bastard Siso was working hard to gain my trust

so he could stab me in the back.

I don't even care anymore.

If I find one single gram of mine, those idiots are fucked.

Answer.

Who is it? Why won't you answer?

It's Cayetana.

Rocio and Paloma's grandmother.

She's probably calling to insult me.

She hates me because I brought the girls to Mexico.

Damn hag.

Another day, another enemy.

Never an ally, though. That only happens whenever a Pope dies.

That's why in addition to paying you your ten big ones,

I want to make you an offer.

-What offer? -Relax, all in due time.

First things first, which is where we're going.

-Then we'll talk, okay? -We're five minutes away.

Make it three. Hurry.

I've got Tessa's signal.

They'll be here in a few moments.

-How much longer will this take? -I'm almost done.

I think I found the problem.

All set.

Give me just a minute.

It's this.

There it is.

All set.

-Ready. -Ready?

Help me lower this.

Don't move.

Cousins, get in!

Mexican, get the door.

Hey.

Thanks, kid.

Cousins! Let's go!

Hey, buddy.

Telmo!

I'm out of bullets.

Are you enjoying your stroll?

Open the goddamn door!

Siso...

don't get mad,

but I'm leaving the business as soon as we get back to Galicia.

I'm not cut out for this.

What are you saying? Relax, man.

We're leaving soon. We'll see then.

We're leaving?

Without avenging Xavi?

Like my father used to say, in this business the real winner

is the one who knows how to wait for the right moment.

What the fuck?

The Mexican was waiting for us. It's a trap.

Siso, wait.

Oh, shit.

It's Zurdo.

Zurdo, pal, these are my cousins,

Telmo and Benxamin Pernas.

You look alike.

Nice to meet you.

How'd you know where we were?

What are you doing with this bitch?

Show some respect! Teresa Mendoza is a lady.

A lady? Are you blind?

This bi...

This woman grew tired of fucking with my father.

Now she won't stop fucking with me.

What are you doing in Mexico?

What do you think?

Settling a score with your new friend.

Tell him, Teresa.

Something weird is going on.

Every time you come to Mexico, you usually call me before.

That's the least I expect from you as a courtesy.

-I was going to. -Sure! Just not today.

Like you didn't want me to know you're here.

This doesn't involve you, Zurdo.

It involves her.

I have a debt to settle with her,

the kind that can't be repaid with money.

Anything you have to say to her you can say to me.

We're all friends here.

There are no secrets between us, all of us.

What's your deal?

This can go off the rails in an instant.

Pass the binocular. I can't see anything.

-What you're saying makes me feel worse. -They're binoculars, Sheila.

Please don't let anything happen to Teresa.

We need her to be okay.

Ray!

Everything all right?

Yeah. The plan is going perfectly.

You did great.

It must've been tough being locked up with those men.

Good job.

Thanks for trusting me, Oleg.

Everything is in Teresa's hands now.

Where's my sister? I don't see her.

She had another task.

Teresa is approaching the Galician.

Aren't you going to tell Zurdo what you're doing here in Culiacán?

I already told him.

I came for you, Teresa.

Stop lying, man. He knows the truth.

Explain to him what you came to do.

If you have nothing to hide, you'll be fine. You seem a little nervous.

-Start talking, motherfucker! -Calm down, Zurdo.

Why are you in Culiacán without telling me?

Calm down, goddamn it!

Teresa had us follow her here.

Then, she locked us in one of these warehouses.

Three armed men against Teresa.

You're so intimidating, babe.

She set us up.

Yeah, she locked us in there and welcomed us with a shower of bullets.

She almost killed us, damn it.

Shit!

What happened? Who died?

No one yet.

Tessa fired her gun.

I don't almost kill.

-When I kill, I kill. -What are you playing at, bitch?

Show some respect before this gun teaches you how.

I've had it with your babbling.

This is simple.

If you're innocent, we're about to find out.

Lencho, time to pull their pants down.

All the way down. Go on!

Easy, easy.

Look, it's ours.

Come on. Take two at a time.

Cat's out of the bag, boss.

What the fuck is going on here?

So... why did you say you came again?

ON THE NEXT EPISODE...

That girl reminds you of your kids, doesn't she?

Still hung up on that?

I don't kill kids or priests.

Sofía!

Savages!

That's what you are! You, Teresa, and you, Zurdo!

Wait, stop. Zoom in.

I want to see it up close.

Hey, what's your problem?

Why is Jonathan on your phone?

Jonathan?

His name's Esteban and he's my friend.
