(ALL CHATTERING)

(ALL CHEERING)

I thought mail-order brides
went out
with the Wild West.

Welcome to Dodge City, baby.

If Maria's any example
of what Guerrero can deliver,

you can bet your life
that business is booming.

We're out at the church.
Stand by.

Congratulations.
Thank you, son.

You're a very lucky girl.

Make my father happy.

I will try, Ramon.

You do good work,
Guerrero.

She's more
than I had hoped for.

Nothing but the best
for you, Louis.

Thank you.

And now maybe
you could find a wife
for my very serious son.

I don't need his help, Papa.

GUERRERO: That's what
all you young men say,
before you look around.

These modern women,
all they think about
are their careers,

their charge cards,
their health club memberships.

But my girls, not only
are they beautiful,

they know their place.
They know how to please
their man.

(LOUIS CHUCKLING)

Guerrero.

RICO: Louis! Louis!

I want to wish you both
a lifetime of happiness.

Many thanks, Cooper,

but at my age,
I'd settle for
10 good minutes.

Congratulations.
You're a beautiful bride.

Isn't she?

I picked out
the dress myself.

I'm Lucia Pendroza.

My late husband, Carlos,
was Louis' older brother.

I remember the name.

He was a great man.

Have you met my son,
Carlos Jr.?

We've seen each other around.

Excuse me, cousin.
The boat's waiting, Papa.

In one minute.

Why don't you follow us
to my yacht?

I'd like to discuss
some business.

And then, perhaps,
my son would allow us

to have one glass of champagne
before we leave.

Shall we?

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

LOUIS: I'll kill you!
I'll kill you!

(SCREAMS)

RICO: With the old man gone,

Ramon Pendroza's
gonna fight it out
with his aunt Lucia

for control
of the family business.

Yeah, if whoever whacked Louis
doesn't move in first.

One thing's for sure,
those people are serious.

Our intelligence
points to the di Marcos
as the prime suspects.

Weren't they the ones
who took out Louis' brother?

Lucia's husband,
Carlos Sr.

Pendrozas and di Marcos
have been bumping heads
for a long time.

Forensics make
the murder weapon as a Madsen
M46 submachine gun.

South American.

Sounds like Colombians.

Well, di Marcos could have
hired outside help.

Could have been someone else.

Half the families in Miami
wanted in
on the Pendroza's action.

Yeah, old Louis wasn't exactly
Mr. Popularity.

Find out
if anybody's moving in
on Pendroza's territory.

You work on the family.

Man, seeing
all those people wasted.

It really got to me, Sonny.

I should have
listened to my mother
and become a doctor.

Dr. Tubbs?

(LAUGHING)

Sorry buddy,
I don't see it that way.

You in a white coat
and latex gloves?

Uh-uh.

Yeah, me neither.

Now Dr. J,

that's a horse
of a different color.

Yeah, I know
you're getting old, now.

What do you mean?

(TELEPHONE RINGING)
Even your heroes
are over the hill.

Yeah, Tubbs.

CAROLINE: Hello, Rico.
This is Caroline.

Oh, hi, Caroline.
Is Sonny there?

No, you've got
the wrong extension.

Look, I'll check and see
if he's here.

Yeah, hi, how are you doing?

I just got back
from seeing the principal
at Billy's school.

What's up?

Well, they caught Billy
playing hooky.

When they called him on it,
he got abusive.

He told them to...

Well, you don't want to know.

Look, Billy's going through
some changes, Sonny.

There are a lot of things
going on in is life
right now.

Things I can't help him with.

Can you come up?

He needs to see his father.

Well, Caroline,
we're right in the middle...

No, you're damned right
I can come up.

I'll work it out.

I'll call you back
when I know
I'm gonna be there.

Thanks.
Yeah, bye.

Lieutenant,
you got a minute?

Yeah.

What can I do for you?

I'm gonna need
a couple of days off.

I know we're in a crunch
right now and it's not
the best of times to ask,

but, hell, it never is.

It's my son, Marty.

Haven't seen him
in over a year.

Now he's in trouble.

Is it serious?

Maybe, maybe not.
I don't know.

Maybe he's just
being a wise guy.

Hell, I've been
so self involved lately,

I haven't spent
enough time with him

to tell you
one way or the other.

It's not your fault.

You had a lot to think about.

Well, at the best of times

I'm not exactly
Father of the Year.

But lately, I feel like
I'm not even pulling my weight
for anybody.

You're doing fine. Go on.

Just make sure I got a number
where I can
get in touch with you.

Thanks.

Do me a favor, will you?

Give Billy a hug for me.

Sonny.
Hey, Bob. How's it going?

Oh, pretty good.
Thanks for coming up.

Oh, yeah.

Caroline will be down
in a minute.

She's getting up
a little late these days.

Why, is she sick?

Hello, Sonny.

Well...

(SONNY CLEARS THROAT)

You didn't tell me
about your delicate condition
over the phone.

Some things you can't say
over a phone.

It's going to be a boy.

Well, you two
have a lot to talk about,

and I'm late for work.

I'll see you tonight.
Yeah. Bye, honey.

Nice seeing you, Sonny.
Yeah.

Oh, Bob, congratulations.

BOB: Thanks.

Billy's really upset, Sonny.

This is the third time
he's gotten in trouble
at school.

Did Bob talk to him?

He won't talk to Bob.
That's part of the problem.

Well, did you talk to him,
before you guys
decided to have the baby?

We didn't decide.
It just kind of happened.

I mean we're really thrilled
about it,

but it was an accident.

Damn, Caroline.
We're not teenagers anymore.

For God's sake.

Oh, that's just great.

You, of all people.

You, with your
swinging lifestyle,

and your women,
and your fast cars,

come up here and judge me.

For once in my life,
just once,

I want to do something
without asking
someone's permission,

and you come down on me
like a hammer.

Well, I'm sorry, Sonny.
I'm sorry I even called you.

Look, I just thought

it might have been
a good thing to discuss
the possibility with him.

I mean, beforehand.

You're right.

You're right,
I should have talked to him.

And now, it's too late.

And he'll probably
never forgive me for this.

And I guess
I'm just a terrible mother.
Okay?

Caroline, listen.

Your hormones
are all happening

and you're blowing this thing
all out of proportion.

Oh, I don't know.

I'll talk to him.
Come here.

Take it easy.

I'll talk to him.
We'll make it work.

So what do you say,
you name this one Sonny?

(LAUGHING)

My husband...

We met through Se�or Guerrero.

Louis sent me letters.

He was so romantic.

I thought
we would have a life together,

that in time
I would come to love him,

and now he's dead.

I'm sorry for your troubles.

Thank you, Se�or Cooper.

You are very kind.

RAMON: Cooper.

I need a word with you.
Alone.

I hope you will visit us
at the house.

I'd like that.

The di Marcos have been
pursuing a partnership

between our two families
for years.

My father was too stubborn
to even consider it.

So they killed him?

Perhaps.

My father had many enemies,
Mr. Cooper,

but I have no time
for vendettas.
They're bad for business.

This is an enlightened view.

(CHUCKLES)

I thought you'd feel that way.

Especially when I tell you
that I'm expecting
a large shipment

of top-quality product.

I want you to move it for me.

That's what I'm here for.

First I need
your help, though,

in insuring against
future unpleasantness
with the di Marcos.

I'd like you
to arrange a meeting
with their top shooter,

a gentleman by the name of
Tony Murati.

You'll offer him a deal.
He'll accept.

When their muscle
comes over to our side,

I can negotiate
from a position of strength.

And we get on
with our business.

Absolutely.

(PIANO PLAYING)

MAN: Hey, Tony,
how's it going?

Mr. Cooper, you said you had
a business proposition.

I'm listening.

Good.

Because you're about to make
some easy money.

My favorite kind.

Pendroza wants peace,
and he's willing
to pay for lt.

How much peace
are you talking about?

(GRUNTS)

(SCREAMS)

Ramon,

you and me got to have a talk.

Cooper, you care
for some breakfast?

I lost my appetite last night
at that peace meeting.

No, thanks.

Look, I can explain.

You set me up.
Nobody does that to me, man.
Nobody.

You almost got me killed
last night.

I apologize for that.
The hitter was overzealous.

But everything's
worked out fine.
Murati is dead,

Don di Marco
has agreed to a truce,

and that shipment
I talked to you about

is coming in as planned.
I'm gonna let you
handle the whole thing.

Plus a bonus
of a hundred grand.

Your money
doesn't make it right, Ramon.

You used me.

From now on
there are no secrets
between us.

You have my word.
Your word?

I'll take the hundred grand.

Listen, tonight I'm having
a little party

to celebrate
my newfound friendship
with the di Marcos.

I hope you'll join us.
Won't you?

You know, your mom told me
about the baby.

No kidding.
That's all she talks about
anymore.

What they're gonna name it,
what color
to paint the nursery,

what kind of car seat to buy.

The whole thing is so lame.

I'm never gonna have a kid.

You're feeling
a little left out, are you?

It's not that. It's Bob.

He rags me about everything.

There's this
great horror flick
playing at the mall.

He wouldn't let me go.
He treats me like a baby.

And I'm not even his.

Dad, why can't I
come live with you?

Billy, man, there's nothing
I'd love more in the world

than have you
come live with me.

All right!

No, no, no, come on,
let me finish.

Come on, you know what I do
for a living.

The kind of job I do,

I'm out
all hours of the night,

I'm dealing with
all kinds of weirdos.

I never know
what the hell time
I'm going to come home

or if I'm gonna come home.

I mean,
that's no life for a kid.

Sounds neat to me, Dad.

(CHUCKLES)

I love you, you know that?

Your mom loves you too.
More than anything.

And I think this guy Bob,
I think he's okay.
He loves you.

You got a pretty okay life,
don't you think?

Dad, you haven't been around.

Everything's totally different
now that they're
having a baby.

You just don't know.

They don't want me
around anymore, that's it!

Come on, listen...

And you don't want me
to live with you either.

Great! That's just great!

What's the matter with you?

You don't get enough kicks
from your regular whores?

You gotta play peeping Tom
with that peasant girl?

What do you want from me?

Your father
used to run this family.

Now is your chance
to take his place.

My father paid for his power
with his life.

I have no plans to follow him.

Then you're no son of mine.

I've been thinking about
getting him into therapy.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Well, one thing for sure,
he needs all the attention
he can get right now.

He's a resourceful kid.
He'll come out of it.

Yeah, I know.

You know, Caroline,
part of the problem

is that I don't get
to see him enough.

We need
to spend more time together.

Something on a regular basis.
Something he can count on.

Like what?

Well, summer vacations
for starters.

We need to spend
a solid month together.

You'd to that?
Take time off?

Hell, yeah.

Excuse me,
this the Ballard residence?

You got it.

I got the crib you ordered.

Stay there, I got it.
You got to save your strength.

Just leave it in the hallway.
We're still working
on the nursery.

That's why they give you
nine months, right?

First one?

Oh, no.
We've done this before.

Haven't we, honey?

Oh, number two. Good luck.

(ALL CHATTERING)

Excuse me, may I?

Thank you.

Maria?

You look like somebody
who could use some company.

Se�or Cooper.

Please call me Rico.

Rico.

I like that name.

Don di Marco,
you honor my home.

You were kind to invite me.

I am only sorry
it took so much pain
to bring us together.

How dare you invite
my husband's murderer
into our home?

Get out of here.
You're drunk.

Don di Marco,
I apologize for my family.

You apologize
to that butcher?

Why don't you get down
and kiss his ring?

Get her out of my sight.

Take me away from here, Rico.
Please.

I could use
a change of scenery, too.

Let's dance!

You remember that night
I put together
Billy's first crib?

It took me all night.

We didn't know
what we were doing.

Maybe this time
I'll be able to get past
the first few months

without going
completely wacko.

Don't count on it.

You remember that night
he had the croup?

We had to stay up...

We stayed up
three nights straight.

Yeah, three whole nights.
The both of us.

Put so much steam in his room,
the paint
peeled off the walls.

Yeah.

How'd we ever
get though it, huh?

I don't know.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Hello.

Yes?

Yes, of course. Thank you.

Billy got into
some kind of fight at school.

And he's run away.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

MAN: It's extraordinary
how crazy you can make
a lot of couple

on a couple of bottles
of beer.

(PEOPLE LAUGHING)

I wish I'd known
you were into the classics.

The last two pictures
I looked in on,

a moth ate a guy's head,
and in the other one,
a giant worm slimed Cleveland.

This is the best part, Dad.

He kills her,

but it's like a mistake.

He's just trying to play.

Yeah, they think
he's a monster,

but really he's just scared.

GIRL: I'm Maria.

Would you play with me?

Your mom's
really worried about you.
Bob, too.

Yeah, sure.

Dad, isn't it weird for you
that Mom's having a baby
with Bob?

Yeah. It's weird.

But it's happening.
We got to deal with it.

I don't want to deal with it.
I hate it
that they're having this baby.

Well, I'm sorry
to hear that, Billy,

'cause you're
going to miss out
on something real special.

Like what?

Well, when I was a kid,

my older brother,
your uncle Jake,

used to take care of me.

And he taught me an awful lot.

Like one time,
I must have been
about eight years old.

I was playing baseball
in this field near our house,

and it was my turn to bat.

I was going to
step up to the plate

and this big kid
named Jimmy Vannuchi,

he says it's his turn, right?

Well, it wasn't his turn,
it was my turn.

So I stepped up to the plate,

and he came after me
with a bat.

And he would have hurt me too.

Man, he would have
hurt me bad.

About that time,

my brother Jake
is on his way home
from school,

and he sees it
going down, right?

So he comes over
and Vannuchi
takes off running.

And my...

My brother Jake chases him.
He catches him
near this drainage ditch.

He throws him face down
in the mud.

He did?

Yeah.
Wow!

Well, that's different.
You were the younger one,
and you had the same parents.

Come on, Billy,
you can handle this.

Your little brother
will probably turn out to be
your best friend.

No. I don't want him
for a friend.

Well, that's up to you.

But in the meantime,

I want you to be nice
to your mom.

She's having a hard time
right now, you know.

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

You're a very
tender lady.

It's funny.

When I was a little girl,

I couldn't wait
to leave the mountains
where I was born.

See the city, the high life,

the glamorous people
I had only read about
in magazines.

Now I can't wait to go back.

It must be very beautiful.

On nights like this at home,

we'd sit by the phonograph
and my father would sing along
with Pavarotti.

I never heard
anything so beautiful.

You really loved
your father.
Yes.

You miss him.

But I keep him in my heart.

Some nights,

I shut my eyes,
and I can hear him singing.

He was a man
not unlike you, Rico.

Strong, brave,

foolish.

Maria...

In my country,
things happen slowly.

A boy and a girl
court sometimes for years.

I have some feelings for you,
Rico,

I shouldn't have.

I'm sorry if I rushed you.

Don't be.

But now I have to
say good night.

(WOMAN SCREAMING)

Mama... Mama!

(PEOPLE WHISPERING)

What happened?

You killed her,
you son of a bitch.

(WOMAN GASPS)

Your mother was drunk.
She fell.
You get a hold of yourself.

It was no accident.
You killed her.

Diego, my cousin's upset.
Take him upstairs.
Give him a sedative.

I don't need a sedative.

I'm going to kill you!

(CURSING IN SPANISH)

I'm fine.

Ramon's laid his hands
on 50 kees
of Colombia's finest

and he wants me
to move it for him.

A regular chip
off the old rock.

RICO: Not according to Maria.

She says that Ramon
killed his own father
so that he could take over.

Possible.

Our sources say
it wasn't the di Marcos.

Hits his old man,
then pushes his aunt
off the balcony?

Not exactly a model child.

He's a loose cannon.

We got to bring him in.
When and where?

Tonight, 10:00.

The Southland Industrial Park.
With a partial load.

Ramon will be there?

At this point,
he doesn't trust anybody
but me.

Can you blame him?

Play along.

We'll pick up Ramon
when he delivers
the full load.

This operation's over.

Lieutenant,
could you put somebody
on the widow?

You see, the old man left her
the bulk of his estate,

and I got a feeling
that Ramon, you know...

She might be next
on his hit list.

I already assigned a unit
to the house.

Anything more might risk
blowing your cover.

I'm telling you,
it's real bad out there.

She could get hit any second.

Rico, I can't do it.

Are you getting
personally involved
with this woman?

No, no way.

Good.

Mr. Cooper.
It's good to see you,
my friend.

I brought some friends
of my own

as a down payment.

So we can cut the talk
and get down to business.

You New Yorkers are so pushy.

I like that.

Go ahead, have a taste.

I'm sure your customers
won't be disappointed.

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Leave it!

The deal's blown.

Let's get out of here alive.

Di Marco's a dead man.

I'm gonna use his head
for an ashtray.

Oh, my God! What happened?

Some uninvited guests
crashed our party

and the cops
were right behind them.

Rico, are you all right?

Well, it's not my idea
of a good time,
but I'll make lt.

Come upstairs.
I'll get a bandage for you.

Is it too tight?

No, no, it's just fine.

If anything happened to you,
I couldn't stand lt.

Nothing's gonna happen to me.

But the di Marco's won't quit
until they've killed everyone.

Don't you see that?

Yes, I do.

That's why you should leave.
No, I can't.

Ramon will steal everything.

Bring down
what's left of the family.

It's my duty.

But you...

I'm not going anywhere
without you.

Maria,

I'll make arrangements
to get you someplace safe.

I told you, Rico...

And I told you.

You got to get out of here.

As long as I'm with you?

I want you to stay here.

Don't open the door
for anybody.

I'll be back
just as soon as I can.

(DOOR OPENING)

Carlos.

You wouldn't care for a drink,
would you?

You killed my mother.

Don't be an idiot.
Your mother killed herself.

If you were
half the man she was,
you'd do the same thing.

MARIA: He mocks you, Carlos.

He slanders
your mother's name.

Well, we finally see the whore
beneath the grieving widow.

Do it. Do it now.

Don't you listen to her,
Carlos.

We're blood, you and I.

That's funny.
You used to spit at me
when we were boys.

I've gotten more sympathy
from her in one night,
a stranger,

than I've ever gotten from you
my whole life.

No, no, you're wrong.
You're wrong, cousin.

I have big plans for you.
Let me show you something.

Strange.

I always thought I was weak.
But...

Maria, with you
I can be strong now.

Don't count on it.

Why?

Because you're a Pendroza.

This is one of the gunmen
who raided your meeting
with Ramon tonight.

Male, Hispanic,
about 20 years of age.

Died of a single gunshot wound
to the chest.

What about prints?

We're running them.

Whoever he is,
he's not local.

There was one
identifying mark.

Kind of interesting.

Some sort of totem
etched into the scalp.

Almost from birth
from the looks of it.

Escorpionista.

CORONER: You recognize it?
RICO: Yeah.

It's a mark
of the Scorpion Clan.

The Colombian version
of the Cosa Nostra.

Stone killers.

Since when did they move
into Miami?

I don't know,

but if the Scorpions
are at war
with the Pendrozas,

then Maria's
in a lot more danger
than I thought.

Let me see the case file.

Thank you.

Property report states
that he was carrying
a Madsen M46.

That's the same weapon
they used as the hit on Louis.

You think the Scorpions
are working for di Marco?

It's a possibility.

See if his prints
ring any bells at Interpol.

Can I keep this?
Sure.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

I need to talk to you,
Guerrero.

Who the hell are you?

You arranged a marriage
between Louis Pendroza

and a woman
by the name of Maria.

I'm afraid all of my work
is strictly confidential.

Really?

Well, I'm sure the INS
would love to know
all about it.

Come to think of it,
I do remember that case.

Maria Ortega.
A lovely creature.

Too bad about her husband.

Who is she?
Where did you find her?

The truth is, she found me.

At least, her family did.

When they heard
I was looking for a bride
for Mr. Pendroza,

they made sure that Maria
was the chosen party.

You mean they paid you?

Highly unusual, I know,

but one must be accommodating
in these matters.

And her family
was quite influential.

They seemed to run everything.

People were in awe of them.

They even had
a special name for them.

Escorpionistas.

That's it.
Interesting, isn't it?

Just you and me, partner.
A solid month.

Just cruising the Keys,
fishing every day...

Diving for a buried treasure,
sleeping in
as late as we want.

You got it.
How does that sound?

Outstanding!
Yeah.

Meanwhile, you gonna remember
what I told you?

I guess so.

What do you mean you guess...
Okay, okay, okay...

What do you mean...
Okay, okay...

Who's there?

It's me, Rico.

Rico, you scared me.

I'm sorry.

Listen, I know
who's killing the Pendrozas.

You do?
Yeah.

You're in a lot more danger
than I thought.

I want you to get dressed
because I'm taking you
out of here, now.

Rico, I'm so glad you're here.

I was going crazy
waiting for you.

I missed you too.

Rico,

whatever happens,
I want you to know
that I love you.

Nothing's going to happen
to us.

Nothing's going to happen
to...

Escorpionista.

You're the one who set up
Louis and Ramon.

Why?

My father was el alcalde
of our village.

The Pendrozas came to him
when I was a little girl.

They asked him to help them
with the local growers.

He refused.

So they tie him on a chair.

Torture him.

I hide under my bed,

my blanket around my ears,

but still I could hear
the screams.

My mother couldn't stand it.

She went to them,
tried to make them stop.

They killed them both, Rico.

So you married Louis
to get on the inside.

Their security was too tight.
It was the only way.

To be with him
was like death.

But what happened
between us, Rico, it was real.

There's no reason
why we can't be together.

There you are wrong,
my sister.

Move, and I'll kill you.

No, Miguel.

Your boyfriend is the only one
who could have tipped the cops

about our meet with Pendroza.

Maria, he killed Esteban.

Now he's gonna die.

No, Miguel.
No more killing.

MARTIN: Freeze!

Maria.

Maria.

Hold on, baby.

Rico.

I'm here.

I kept telling myself
not to get involved.

But there was
something about her.

Or maybe it was me.

I'm just tired
of losing people, Sonny.

Yeah, man.
I know what you mean.

Caroline and Bob
are having a baby.

Must be nice for them.

I just can't
keep from thinking

that's the one that got away.

I know what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna find me
a straight woman,

one that's not connected
with the business,

who doesn't have
a career either.

Somebody who will love me
with all her heart.

Yeah.

Have babies,

white picket fence,

a Winnebago,

weenie roasts.

No.
No.
